All the girls and the guys hear the call of the wild And head out to howl at the moon And before you can plan someone says it again Like it was something that you never knew Well if times get tough, if the feeling is rushed You could take the next avenue ‘Cause the sound of the street is the sway and the beat So do just what you’re gonna’ do I hit the scene, I was cut, I was lean, I was recognized Had my mind on my looks Tryin’ to learn things that books never emphasized Had a pump in my veins like I never knew I was breaking hearts like the young guys do I hit the scene, I was tough, I was mean, I was amplified You said take some time to find your kind But you can’t and you won’t ‘Cause it all leads back to you Yes you always do There’s this feeling that you can’t fight And it takes just one night Some folks will say that it ain’t right But if you take just one bite

The Fever 03:09
If you’ve got time and a little money We’ve got places to go A one way ticket to Vegas Headed out of Ohio I can feel this fever coming on 75 miles an hour 22 hours to go For you it’s fun ‘cause you don’t know what I’ve done I can’t say but it’s on the tip of my tongue I can feel this fever coming on We’ll bed down in Tucumcari Where the neon’s like a string of pearls Tomorrow comes we’ll keep ramblin’ Away from that eastern sun I can feel this fever coming on
3.
Yes I like to always get what I want Sometimes I don’t know what I’m asking for You see I got myself into this little lovin’ situation So I figured I’d move you in and keep moving on If I feel myself turning into something I’m not Gettin’ back less than I give And giving out more than I got Just tell me, “Honey, I know you can live down this reputation ‘Cause I know what we’ve built and we built it strong” If my head catches up with my heart If the feeling that I had at the start May not be the way I always thought it would be So come on take me by the hand And tell me that you understand Help me to see the way I always thought it could be I’ve been with the sinners and the saints I’ve seen it all turn out the same There’s no problem that I see It will come to me As long as I can let go of the strain Of living with my one and only This big ‘ol house ain’t lonely It ain’t lonely

Thought I’d write a song about November Last time I saw you it was September Oh wait, that was a phone call on your part Your voice was oh, so pretty And it was nice to catch up I’ve had my sights set on November My diary says that it’s lonely here And all I wanna do is have you near With your face lookin’ out the window Like you don’t care Well that’s just your social way So will I see you at the station? Or wait where we once lived? Or the mean? I don’t mean to confuse you now I’m just sad we never happened again Thought I’d smoke some pot to toast your memory Seems it’s all I can do to keep my head straight Why don’t we get fucked up this night? I just want to dull our senses And wind up in your arms Though I’m better off sleeping alone But we’ve come too far Yes we’ve come too far
5.
I woke up feeling tired after sleeping for weeks Looking for the edge of the light at the end of the dream Could I just whisper a lie if it could grant me some peace? Well it takes a little coal to fuel the fire And heat to release And they all dive down Into the deep They say son get you a wife and plant you some seeds Let the roots drive into the ground and anchor your feet These limbs were made to fight when playing for keeps While the voices ramble on like a choir Set to repeat And they all dive down Into the deep Young man filled with pride and anxious to speak To cut the world down from the wire, to bring ‘em to their knees Go find a place to hide and plan your retreat Take a long drag and fill up your lungs You better get ready to run And they all dive down Into the deep

Your daddy left town when you were just six years old That event left a big ‘ol hole, and so it’s said When most the other folks your age are fixed on settling down You’ve developed quite the reputation of being out on the prowl For good lovin’ Oh, for good lovin’ Wrap it up and write it up in that notebook Torn, tattered, frayed, and missing pages Giving it your all has got you nothing So you let it sit there, lying open Hoping that someone would come and turn the page Come into your life and make you stay All your favorite songs Yeah they’re all about leaving Well I know the feeling I get I watch you hum along So you tell me that Your heart’s set on leaving I’ve been seeing this coming You’ve got a wanderin’ eye Same situation always turns out the same way In one place, why won’t you stay? All your favorite songs Yeah they’re all about leaving Well I know the feeling I get I watch you hum along So you tell me that Your heart’s set on leaving I’ve been seeing this coming You’ve got a wanderin’ eye
7.
Everybody’s got a story They can’t depend on If you’ve loved somebody You’ve read it before Tell me can you keep a secret I’m tired of keeping I’ve got to get it off my chest ‘Cause I’ve been here too long ‘Cause you’ve never met a heart like mine Everybody’s got someone They can’t depend on If you’ve loved somebody You know ‘em all too well Don’t make me go on livin’ The way that I’ve been livin’ I’ve gone and givin’ ‘em something I know they can’t forget You’ve never met a heart like mine
8.
Father I look to your words ‘Cause Father I figure you’ve been here before What did you do when you got this down? You’d say, “Well son, life’s a circle, it just goes round and round and round.” So won’t you commit to me now? I’m bruised and I’m broken But aren’t we all somehow? I’ll just stop breathing for now Tomorrow I’ll wake up So don’t let me down Maybe I should just buy a house A cozy little place where I could settle down And put all these dreams in the ground “Well son, life’s a circle, it just goes round and round and round.” So won’t you commit to me now? I’m bruised and I’m broken But aren’t we all somehow? I’ll just stop breathing for now Tomorrow I’ll wake up So don’t let me down It’s about time that I make a stand It’s about time that I become a man But brother I could sure use a hand “Well son, life’s a circle, it just goes round and round and round.” So won’t you commit to me now? I’m bruised and I’m broken But aren’t we all somehow? I’ll just stop breathing for now Tomorrow I’ll wake up So don’t let me down
