FEELS SO BAD, JUST LIKE A BALLGAME ON A RAINY DAY
FEELS SO BAD, JUST LIKE A BALLGAME ON A RAINY DAY
SINCE I LOST MY BABY
I SHAKE MY HEAD AND WALK AWAY

SOMETIMES I WANNA LEAVE HERE, THEN AGAIN I WANNA STAY
SOMETIMES I WANNA LEAVE HERE, THEN AGAIN I WANNA STAY
I JUST CAN’T MAKE MY MIND UP
SHAKE MY HEAD AND WALK AWAY

I’M TRYING TO TELL YOU PEOPLE, TELL YOU EXACTLY HOW I FEEL
I’M TRYING TO TELL YOU PEOPLE, TELL YOU EXACTLY HOW I FEEL
I JUST CAN’T KEEP FROM CRYIN
MY BABY GAVE ME A DIRTY DEAL

IF YOU DON’T WANNA TAKE MY LIFE
THEN BABY DON’T ASK ME TO SET YOU FREE
I KNOW I CAN’T STAND TO LOSE YOU
AND I CAN’T BLAME NO-ONE BUT ME
BUT IF YOU THINK ABOUT THE PAST
MAYBE YOU’LL COME BACK TO ME SOMEDAY

I’LL PROVE THAT I CAN CHANGE MY WAYS
CHANGE THE WAY I’VE TREATED YOU
IT’S TAKEN SO LONG TO FIND OUT
AN’ NOW YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE
BUT IF YOU THINK ABOUT THE PAST
MAYBE YOU’LL COME BACK TO ME SOMEDAY

I WENT DOWN TO THE CROSSROADS
FELL DOWN ON MY KNEES
I WENT DOWN TO THE CROSSROADS
FELL DOWN ON MY KNEES
ASKED THE LORD TO PLEASE HAVE MERCY
SAVE ME IF YOU PLEASE

STANDING AT THE CROSSROADS
I TRIED TO FLAG A RIDE
STANDING AT THE CROSSROADS
I TRIED TO FLAG A RIDE
DIDN’T NOBODY SEEM TO KNOW ME
EVERYBODY PASSED ME BY

SUN GOIN DOWN, DARK DON’T FIND ME HERE
SUN GOIN DOWN, DARK DON’T FIND ME HERE
AIN’T GOT NO SWEET LOVIN’ WOMAN
NO ONE TO FEEL MY CARES

I WANT YOU TO LOVE ME
LOVE ME RIGHT
I WANT YOU TO LOVE ME
LOVE ME RIGHT
NO MORE CRYIN IN THE DAYTIME
NO MORE CREEPIN ROUND AT NIGHT

WHY DON’T YOU TELL ME
EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO
WHY DON’T YOU TELL ME
WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO
IF I’VE DONE SOMETHING WRONG LITTLE GIRL
I’M GONNA MAKE IT UP TO YOU

LET ME SHOW YOU
SHOW YOU THAT MY LOVE IS REAL
LET ME SHOW YOU
SHOW YOU THAT MY LOVE IS REAL
WORDS JUST CAN’T EXPLAIN LITTLE GIRL
EXACTLY HOW I FEEL

INSIDE OUT
YOUR LOVE HAS TURNED ME UPSIDE DOWN
INSIDE OUT
YOUR LOVE HAS TURNED ME UPSIDE DOWN

MY LOVE WILL COME SHINING THRU

HE CAN GET YOU
ALL THE THINGS YOU DREAM ABOUT
BUT CAN HE BE TRUE
IN YOUR HEART THERE’S SEEDS OF DOUBT
AND WHEN HE STARTS TO TREAT YOU BAD
MY LOVE WILL COME SHINING THRU

PAGES TURNING
PRECIOUS MOMENTS DRIFTING BY
I’LL BE WAITING
NO WASTED TEARS NOT ONE MORE SIGH
AND WHEN HE STARTS TO TREAT YOU BAD
MY LOVE WILL COME SHINING THRU

I’M LOOKING FOR A TRUE LOVE
SOMEONE TO EASE MY TROUBLED MIND
I’M LOOKING FOR A TRUE LOVE
SOMEONE TO EASE MY TROUBLED MIND
GONNA FIND MY HOPE AND SAVIOUR
SOMEONE TO TREAT ME SWEET AND KIND

I NO MORE NEED TO GO WHERE
LOVE DON’T COME FOR FREE
I KNOW THE GOOD TIMES FLOW THERE
BUT IT AIN’T JUST WHAT I NEED
I’M LOOKING FOR A TRUE LOVE
SOMEONE TO EASE MY TROUBLED MIND
GONNA FIND MY HOPE AND SAVIOUR
SOMEONE TO TREAT ME SWEET AND KIND

TIRE OF LIFE ON MAIN STREET
NEED TO BACK ON DOWN
BEFORE I GET IN TOO DEEP
I’M GONNA LEAVE THIS TOWN
I’M LOOKING FOR A TRUE LOVE
SOMEONE TO EASE MY TROUBLED MIND
GONNA FIND MY HOPE AND SAVIOUR
SOMEONE TO TREAT ME SWEET AND KIND

WE STOOD AND WATCHED THE STORM CLOUDS GATHER
WATCHED AS MOUNTAINS TURNED TO SAND
WE LET THEM STEAL THE FUTURE
DID NOT RAISE A HAND
NOT QUICK ENOUGH TO ANGER
FAR TOO SLOW TO UNDERSTAND

WE CHOSE TO WALK AWAY IN SILENCE
WAS THAT FEAR OR APATHY
THE NOOSE BEGAN TO TIGHTEN
FOUND IT HARD TO BREATHE
NOT QUICK ENOUGH TO ANGER
EXTERMINATION GUARANTEED

I GOT A SWEET LITTLE ANGEL
I LOVE THE WAY SHE SPREADS HER WINGS
I GOT A SWEET LITTLE ANGEL
I LOVE THE WAY SHE SPREADS HER WINGS
WHEN SHE SPREADS HER WINGS AROUND ME
I HEAR JOY IN EVERYTHING

I ASKED MY BABY FOR A NICKEL
SHE GAVE ME A TWENTY DOLLAR BILL
I ASKED MY BABY FOR A NICKEL
SHE GAVE ME A TWENTY DOLLAR BILL
ASKED FOR A DRINK OF LIQUOR
SHE GAVE ME A WHISKEY STILL

IF MY BABY SHE QUIT ME
I DO BELIEVE THAT I WOULD DIE
IF MY BABY SHE QUIT ME
I DO BELIEVE THAT I WOULD DIE
IF YOU DON’T LOVE ME LITTLE ANGEL
PLEASE TELL ME THE REASON WHY
