(PART 1: ON YOUR WAY)
Nazareth

Sent a telegram today
Tomorrow you'll be on your way
Could be Memphis or L.A.
No questions just get out and play.

Wake up call to catch the plane
You know you're on the road again
Someone's bangin' in your head
Why did you get so late to bed.
Runnin' late and feelin' bad
That breakfast was the worst you've had
Make the gate no time to spare
Before you know you're in the air.

747 flies us high
Much higher than we're meant to be
You're six miles high but feelin' down
You wish you could be on the ground.

Find your bags and walk for miles
The customs man is waitin' there
Immigration cause delay
You wonder if you'll ever play.
Limousine is standin' by
We get inside and drive a while
F.M. Station soundin' good
And gettin' better every mile.

Hotel lobby looks the same
With all the same old girls in town

Press reception takes the day
With all the same old things to say
Need your picture smile this way
And will you tell me what you play

(PART 2: SO YOU WANNA BE A ROCK'N'ROLL STAR)
Roger McGuinn/Chris Hillman (COPYRIGHT 1966 TICKSON MUSIC CO. (BMI)

So you wanna be a rock'n'roll star
Just listen now to what I say
Get yourself an electric guitar
and take some time and learn to play.

(PART 3: SOUND CHECK)
Nazareth

Your roadies call to say OK
The soundcheck can get underway
Soundcheckover, had some fun
A waste of time for everyone
Time has come to start the show
It's boogie time for everyone
Check guitars before you go
They're close enough for rock n roll
The lights are low,
The crowd is high,much higher than
They're meant to be
We take the stage and start to play
The lights come up for all to see

(PART 4: HERE WE ARE AGAIN)
Nazareth

Here we are again, singin' the same old songs
Lookin for someone who will sing along
Here we are again playin' the same old scenes
Lookin'for someone who will share our dreams
Here we are again facing the same old sights
Lookin' for someone who will share our nights

Nazareth

Sad to be alone
Your only comfort is the telephone
Homesick again
Thoughts of far away
Silence is the only way to say
Ain't it a shame
What's goin' down, she don't understand
Can't you be with her every night
Why must it be, you're away so long
But she plays along, and it's alright
People all around
You don't see or hear them make a sound
It's not the same
What's goin' down, she don't understand
Can't you be with her every night
Why must it be, you're away so long
But she plays along, and it's alright

Countin' out the days
That don't help to ease the days away
The price you pay
Homesick again

Nazareth

We only came here to play rock'n'roll
Share some times with some people we know
Drink some wine
Give us some time
We aint no wise boys we aint no fools
We tried to play clean and keep to the rules
We take and we give, just playin' our gig
But we got laid over
Ya we was done over
Somebody tell us what's goin' down
Don't need another Vancouver shakedown
Six miles high, six miles along
Chasin' the sun we've come to sing you a song
Deliver our goods
We're just rock'n'roll dudes
All these behind us, and one more to go
Fly to Vancouver, to do the lastshow
It's got to be good, like we know that it should
But we got laid over
Ya we was doneover
Somebody tell us what's goin' down
Don't need another Vancouver shakedown
Vancouver shakedown
Vancouver shakedown
We only came here to play rock'n'roll
Share some times with some people we know
Drink some wine
Give us some time
But we got laid over
Ya we was done over
Somebody tell us what's goin' down
Don't need another Vancouver shakedown
Vancouver shakedown
Vancouver shakedown
Vancouver shakedown
Vancouver shakedown
Vancouver shakedown
Vancouver shakedown

Nazareth

Born under the wrong sign
Trouble is my middle name
Born under the wrong sign
Every day turns out the same
But it's so hard to see the light
When you're born under the wrong sign
Wrong sign
Wrong sign
Cast out'a the wrong mold
Sorry is no way that I feel
Cast out'a the wrong mold
Singin' my blues is for real
But it's so hard to see the light
When you're born under the wrong sign

Born under the wrong sign
Trouble is my middle name
Born under the wrong
Every day turns out the same
But it's so hard to see the light
When you're born under the wrong sign
Wrong sign
Wrong sign

Lovely Loretta
I'd like to know you better
Sure would like to know what's
Goin' on in your head
Sweet juicy Lucy go crazy if you chose me
Sure would like to help you
Stop fallin' out'a your bed
Lovely Loretta you know I'm scared to bet ya
I don't know if I went if I'd win or I'd lose
Stronger tha whiskey, ya got to be a Frisky
But ya got something I'd really, like to use

Lovely Loretta
I saw ya in a magazine
Set my details to the gettin' scene
Lovely Loretta you're lookin' so good to me
Helps to make my dreams reality
Lovely Loretta, you know I've got to get ya
You know that its only a simple matter of time
Save my sanity,Oh , girl you gotta use me
Loretta come and help me stop goin' out'a my mind
Loretta come and help me stop goin' out'a my mind
Lovely Loretta

I'm not just something you can pick up or put down
Entertainment value, like some circus clown
Don't give green stamps
With my emotions
Don't have a cut price soul
Don't do, carry out feelings
Or take away love

Carry out feelings
You take away love
Carry out feelings
You take away love

Don't have the kind of heart
You reap and you take away
Keep in your cold store to use at some future date
Don't give a refund on my emotions
No discount on my soul
Don't do, carry out feelings
Or take away love

Carry out feelings
You take away love
Carry out feelings
And take away love

I'm not just someone you can pick up and throw away
Someone to join you in a recycled love affair
Don't give green stamps
With my emotions
Don't have a cut price soul
Don't do, carry out feelings
Or take away love

Carry out feelings
You take away love
Carry out feelings
You take away love
Carry out feelings
You take away love

Nazareth

Here I am, sitting on my porch
Thinkin' my life has got to be beyond reproach
Have I forgot some friends close to me
Real ones that don't use me
And does my woman love me now
Like she loved me then
Here I am,my defenses are down
Will she remember me when I'm not around
Will she still dream by me
Or will she find a new life
Will I ever get used, to being alone at night
I'll never know, but would it do me any good if I did
Life is a strange brew, maybe we should not lift the lid
Lift the lid
I'll never know, but would it do me any good if I did
Life is a strange brew, maybe we should not lift the lid
Lift the lid

YOU'RE THE VIOLIN
Nazareth

Some beat me like a drum
Some stroke me like a guitar
Some shake me like a tambourine
Some beat me into the wall
In the song of my life
Baby, you're the violin

Some blow me like a horn
Some slide me like a trombone
Some smoke me like a tuba dude
Some cut me like a saxophone
In the song of my life
Baby, you're the violin
When you touch me like you touch me
Don't it feel like a summer breeze
When you lay down in my lonely soul, ya
It brings me to my knees
Think I'm makin' love to you
Sweet Baby, Ya
When you touch me like you touch me
Well, don't it feel like a summer breeze
When you lay down in my lonely soul, ya
It brings me to my knees
Think I'm makin' love to you
Sweet Baby, Ya
Some beat me like a drum
Some stroke me like a guitar
Sh-sh-sh-shake me like a tambourine
Some beat me into the wall
In the song of my life
Baby, you're the violin
In the song of my life
Baby, you're the violin
