Mary Jane's Last Dance
 

She grew up in an Indiana town
Had a good lookin' mamma who never was around
but she grew up tall and she grew up right
With them Indiana boys on an Indiana night.

Well, she moved down here at the age of eighteen
She blew the boys away, it was more than they'd seen
I was introduced and we both started groovin'
She said, "I dig you baby, but I got to keep movin'"
on, keep movin' on.

Last dance with Mary Jane
One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm
tired of this town again.

Well, I don't know what I've been told
You never slow down, you never grow old
I'm tired of swering up, I'm tired of goin' down
I'm tired of myself, I'm tired of this town.

Oh my my
Oh hell yes
Honey, put on that party dress
Buy me a drink]
Sing me a song
Take me as I come 'cos I can't stay long.

Last dance with Mary Jane
One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm
tired of this town again.

There's pidgeons down in Market Square
She's standin' in her underwear
Lookin' down from a hotel room
Nightfall will be comin' soon
Oh my my
Oh hell yes
You've got to put on that party dress
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone
I hit the lats number
I walked to the road.

Last dance with Mary Jane
One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm
tired of this town again.
Tired of this town again.

 

Something In the Air
 

Call out the instigator
Because there's something in the air
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here.

And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get together
We have got to get it together now.

Run through the fields and houses
'Cos there's somehting in the air
We've got to get together sonner or later
Because the revolution's here.

And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get together
We have got to get it together now.

Call out the instigator
Because there's something in the air
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here.

And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get together
We have got to get it together now.
