"FINDING MY WAY"
Words and Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
Yeah, oh yeah!
Ooh, said I,
I'm comin' out to get you
Ooh, sit down
I'm comin' out to find you
Ooh, yeah. Ooh yeah
Findin' my way!
I've been gone so long
I've lost count of the years
Well, I sang some sad songs,
Oh yes, and cried some bad tears
Look out! I'm comin'
Whoa, whoa
Look out! I'm comin'
Whoa, yeah
I'm runnin',
Finding my way back home
Oh yeah!
Yeah, oh yeah!
Ooh, said I,
I'm comin' back to look for you
Ooh, sit down
I'm goin' by the back door
Ooh, yeah. Ooh yeah
Findin' my way!
You've done me no right,
But you've done me some wrong
Left me lonely each night
While I sing my sad song
Look out! I'm comin'
Whoa, whoa
Look out! I'm comin'
Whoa, yeah
I'm runnin',
Findin' my way back home
I'm comin'
Ooh, babe, I said I'm runnin'
Whoa, babe, I said I'm comin'
To get you, mama
Said I'm runnin'
Ooh, babe, I said I'm comin'
For you, babe
I said I'm runnin'
Ooh yes, babe, I said I'm comin'
To get you, babe. I said I'm comin'
Ooh, yeah
I'm findin',
I'm findin' my way back home
Well, I've had it for now,
Livin' on the road
Ooh, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Findin' my way!
"NEED SOME
LOVE"
Words and Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
I'm runnin' here
I'm runnin' there
I'm lookin' for a girl
'Cause there's nothin' I need
There's nothin' I want more
In the whole wide world
Well, I need it quick
And I need it now
Before I start to fade away
That's why I'm searchin'
That's why I'm lookin'
Each and ev'ry day
Oo, I need some love
I said I need some love!
Oo yes, I need some love
This feelin' I can't rise above
Yeah, yeah!
Well I been hustlin' here,
I been hustlin' there
I been searchin' for about a week
And I started feelin'
This strange sensation
My knees are startin' gettin' weak
Well I need what keeps
A young man alive,
I'm sayin' I need it now
I'm gonna get the message
Across to you
Someway, somehow
Oo, I need some love
I said I need some love!
Oo yes, I need some love
This feelin' I can't rise above
Oo, yeah yeah!
"TAKE A FRIEND"
Words and Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
Well, I'm lookin' at you
And I'm wond'rin' what you're gonna do
Looks like you got no friends
No one to stick with you till the end
Take yourself a friend
Keep 'em till the end
Whether woman or man
It makes you feel so good
So good
Yes, you think you're all right,
And now you're lonely ev'ry night
Well, you need a friend
Someone on whom you can always depend
Take yourself a friend
Keep 'em till the end
Whether woman or man
It makes you feel so good
So good
Yes, you need some advice
Well, let me put it to you nice
I said you need a friend
Someone who'll stick with you to the end
Take yourself a friend
Keep 'em till the end
Whether woman or man
It makes you feel so good
So good
"HERE AGAIN"
Words and Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
I said I played this song
So many times before
that the melody keeps repeating
Growing new ideas
Flowing chords and notes
Like a mountain river bleeding
Well, I say as I look back
And all the thoughts I've had
They reflect just what I'm learning
Yes, you know that the hardest part
Yes, I say it is to stay on top
On top of a world forever churning
Well, you say you can laugh
But I can see that your eyes are glass
Well, do you see, can't you see, what I'm feeling?
Yes, I've seen your face before
Why, I've seen it everywhere
Showing up to me without a scent revealing
Well, I said will it ever change?
Will it stay the same?
I'd surely like to know before it's over
Well, I said I played some
I said it won't be long
Won't be long before I stop and play it over
Oh, oh I've, I've seen your face before
Is it ever gonna, ever gonna change again?
Oh, oh I've, I've been in one place too long
Is it ever gonna, ever gonna change again?
"WHAT YOU'RE
DOING"
Words and Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
Well, I see you standin' there
With your finger in the air
Ev'rything we do
You wanna leave it up to you
Who do you think you are?
You think you are a star
Try'n' to run the town
Always try'n' to put us down
Well, you think that you're right
You think you're out of sight
Tell me something, mister
Why'd you have to make us so uptight?
Well, you say you've been try'n'
You know that you're ly'n'
I think you need some groovin'
Who do you think you're foolin' now?
Well, you better start changin'
You life needs rearrangin'
You better do some talkin'
Or you better do some walkin' now
Yeah, you think that you're right
You think you're out of sight
Tell me something, mister
Why'd you have to make us so uptight?
I know what you're doing,
All that you been doin' wrong
I don't know what you're feelin',
Oh, but you been feelin' long
Well, you think that you're right
Tell me something, mister
Why'd you have to make us so uptight?
"IN THE MOOD"
Words and Music by Geddy Lee
Aw, hey now, baby,
Well, I like your smile
Won't you come and talk to me
For a little while
Well, you're makin' me crazy
The way you roll them eyes
Won't you come and sit with me
I'll tell you all my lies
Hey baby, it's a quarter to eight
I feel I'm in the mood
Hey baby, the hour is late
I feel I've got to move
Well, hey now, baby
Don't you talk so fast
I'm just try'n' to make these good times,
I'm try'n' to make it last
Ev'rything's getting hazy
Now honey, where'd you go?
I just want to find out, baby
where'd you learn what you know?
Hey baby, it's a quarter to eight
I feel I'm in the mood
Hey baby, the hour is late
I feel I've got to move
Well, hey now, baby
Said, I like your style
You really got me, baby
Way down deep inside
Oo, you drive me crazy
Baby, you're the one
I just want to rock-and-roll you woman
Until the night is gone
Hey baby, it's a quarter to eight
I feel I'm in the mood
Hey baby, the hour is late
I feel I've got to move
"BEFORE
AND AFTER"
Words and Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
Love won't see my comin'
On a Sunday noon today
Still don't believe we're fadin'
but now the world should wait
And now you're fina'lly list'nin'
To what I have to say
Well, the time is right
And it is today
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Maybe we could talk about it
And try to get it straight
After all these years, baby,
Maybe it's too late
But I really need to
Have you by my side
And that's the only feelin'
Baby, I can't hide
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Well you aren't list'nin'
I ain't talkin'
We ain't gettin' nowhere
I keep tryin' to get
Through to you baby
All you do is stare
I don't wanna see that
I need you by my side
Well, I don't want to be your lover
Babe, I wanna be your man
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, now my story's over, baby
And I ain't gonna tell it twice
Well, you better start list'nin'
Or get out of my life
Or you're gonna be left out
I said left out in the cold
Yeah, before you get my lovin', babe
You'll be too old
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, I'm talkin' to you baby
Well, I said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
"WORKING MAN"
Words and Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
I get up at seven, yeah
And I go to work at nine
I got no time for livin'
Yes, I'm workin' all the time
It seems to me
I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am
I guess that's why they call me
They call me the workin' man
They call me the workin' man
I guess that's what I am
I get home at five o'clock
And I take myself out a nice, cold beer
Always seem to be wond'rin'
Why there's nothin' goin' down here
It seems to me
I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am
I guess that's why they call me
They call me the workin' man
They call me the workin' man
I guess that's what I am
Well they call me the workin' man
I guess that's what I am
