Status Quo Album

Well, I spent my money on the spinning wheel last night
Well, I spent my money on the spinning wheel last night
Well, red twenty-seven didn't do me right

Well, I went in smiling but I came out feeling down
Well, I went in smiling but I came out feeling down
Well, now that I'm a poor man, I got no frends around

I went high up that lonesome, high up that lonesome hill
I went high up that lonesome, high up that lonesome hill
I need a whole lotta money so I can pay my bills

Well, the spinning wheel blues have made me pack up my bags and go
Well, the spinning wheel blues have made me pack up my bags and go
I had to leave my home town, 'cos they don't want me no more

[No lyrics]

My eyes can see, my hands can feel
My ears can hear, my eyes can see
They can see everything, everything

A bird that flies, a bird that dies
And who knows why? But with my eyes
I can see everything, everything

And now the dawn is breaking
I see the dawn is breaking
And life seems very good to me
I see your face is smiling
Your bed looks warm, inviting
I feel your hand walk over me

I climb in bed beside you
The past is not behind you
You feel a little pain inside
And now our heads are whirring
It's done, there's no returning
You feel the little pain - it dies

My eyes can see, my hands can feel
My ears can hear, my eyes can see
They can see everything, everything

A bird that flies, a bird that dies
And who knows why? But with my eyes
I can see everything, everything
And who knows what it all means

Come let me take you, said tiger to the fly
You'll never make me, said fly, I'm rather shy
I'm gonna get you, said tiger with a glare
His eyes were a shining, but fly she was aware

Shy fly keep on smiling, yes, keep on smiling every day
Shy fly keep on smiling, gonna keep on smiling every day
Shy fly keep on smiling, you're gonna keep on smiling every day

Miss Fly and Tiger turn each other on
But teasing and back-biting makes loving much more fun
Fly gets him together, and Tiger thinks he's won
But Fly, she keeps on smiling, he's not the only one
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Shy fly keep on smiling, and keep on smiling every day
Shy fly keep on smiling, well you keep on smiling every day
Shy fly keep on smiling, gonna keep on smiling every day

Shy fly keep on smiling, gonna keep on smiling every day
Shy fly keep on smiling, you're gonna keep on smiling every day
Shy fly keep on smiling, gonna keep on smiling every day
Shy fly keep on smiling...

Love me baby, love me when I'm down
I said love me baby, love me when I'm down
Oh you gotta love me baby
'Cos there's no use hanging around
I said put your arms around me like a sunbeam round the sun

I said put your arms around me like a sunbeam round the sun
Yeah, you gotta love me woman
'Cos my life has just begun

Love me baby, love me when I'm down
Oh, love, love me baby, love me when I'm down
Oh you gotta love me baby
'Cos there's no use hanging around

Put your arms around me like a sunbeam round the sun
Mmm, put your arms around me like a sunbeam round the sun
Yeah, you gotta love me woman
'Cos my life has just begun

Love me baby, love me when I'm down
Oh, love, love, love me baby, love me when I'm down
Oh you gotta love me baby
'Cos there's no use hanging around, yeah

Love me baby, love me when I'm down
Love me baby, love me when I'm down
Oh you gotta love me baby
'Cos there's no use hanging around

Ah well, I've got a woman and I love, love her so
She is big, fat and lazy but I want you all to know
That I love her and I need that woman so
She is my little lady and I'm glad that you all know

When she wakes in the morning and her figure tells no lies
My eyesight is broken when the light shines on her thighs
But I love her and I need that woman so
Oh how can I tell you what I'd do if she should go

And I love her and I need that woman so
Oh well how can I tell you what I would do if she should go

Ah well she is so lazy, how she moves I'll never know
She was so different eleven years ago
But I love her and I need that woman so
She's a big lakky lady but I love that woman so

I need your love every day
I need your love, need your love every day
I need your love, need your love, need your love
I need your love, need your love every day

I, I need your love
I, I see your love
And now I'm here to take it
I'm glad I've had your love
It's not the greatest love
But it's alright with me, alright with me

I need your love every day
I need your love, need your love every day
I need your love every day
I need your love, need your love, need your love

My nights were getting longer
My dreams were getting old
I wasn't getting younger
My bed was getting cold
But it's all far behind me
I'm a really satisfied man

My nights were getting longer
My dreams were getting old
I wasn't getting younger
My bed was getting cold
But it's all far behind me
I'm a really satisfied man

I, I need your love
I, I see your love
And now I'm here to take it
I'm glad I've had your love
It's not the greatest love
But it's alright for me, alright for me

Me and my baby don't do nothing but laze around all day long
Me and my baby don't do nothing but laze around all day long
Yeah, when I'm with my baby
Lazy pokin' going on

She put some coal on the fire so I can keep my poker hot
She put some coal on the fire so I can keep my poker hot
Yeah, when I'm with my baby
Lazy pokin' going on

She put some coal on the fire so I can keep my poker hot
She put some coal on the fire so I can keep my poker hot
Yeah, when I'm with my baby
Lazy pokin' going

Baby, the feeling that you give to me
Maybe I'm thinking your so good to me
Is it really, really me?
Is it really, really me?

Baby, the feeling, I can't stand the joy
Spare me some feeling if I wake up a boy
Is it really, really me?
Is it really, really me?

Baby, I'm feeling like a fire, I am
Am I still teething or could I be a man?
Is it? Is it?
Is it really, really me?
Is it really, really me?

I gotta get along 'cos it's a long, long ride now
I've been away too long, I gotta get on home now
I'm getting far too old to know my dream of fortune
But the time is flowing now, I know what I must do

I gotta go home, I gotta go home
I gotta go home to ease my mind
I gotta go home, I gotta go home
I gotta go home to ease my mind

I gotta get along 'cos it's a long, long ride now
I've been away too long, I gotta get on home now
I'm getting far too old to know my dream of fortune
But the time is flowing now, I know what I must do

I gotta go home, I gotta go home
I gotta go home to ease my mind
I gotta go home, I gotta go home
I gotta go home to ease my mind
