BTO Lyrics

Hold back the water by Randy Bachman/ Robin Bachman/Christopher Kelly Headed cross the border Looking for a place to play I left the sun behind I don't mind But I think that it looked like rain Hold back the water I gotta fine time to burn Hold back the water I gotta fine time to burn Headed west to Georgia Looking for the road to L.A. They say the weather's fine But the sun don't shine 'Cause the smog's always in the way Hold back the water I gotta fine time to burn Hold back the water I gotta fine time to burn I've never played no smoker You know I've never played no hotdog The preacher say I was born this way With storm cloud in my heart Hold back the water I gotta fine time to burn Hold back the water I gotta fine time to burn I gotta fine time to burn I gotta fine time to burn
Ain't Seen Nothing Yet I met a devil woman. She took my heart away. She said I had it coming to me. but I wanted it that way. I think that any lovin's good lovin. So I took what I could get. She looked at me with her big brown eyes and said. you ain't seen nothing yet....b.b.b.baby you just aint seenn.nothin yet here's somethin your just never gonna forget, b.b.b.b. baby you just aint seen n.n. nothing yet And now I'm feeling better. Cause I found out for sure. She took me to her doctor. And he told me I was cured. He said that any love is good love so i took what i could get, She looked at me with her big brown eyes and said you ain't seen nothing yet....b.b.b.baby you just ain't seenn.n.nothin yet here's something here's something your never gonna forget baby, you know you know you know you just ain't seen n.n. nothin yet any lovin is good lovin so i took what i could get, she looked at my with her big brown eyes and said you aint seen nothin yet baby you just aint seen n.n. othing yet here's somethin here's somethin here's somethin your never gonna forget baby baby baby baby you just aint seen nothing yet you aint seen nothing yet (repeat until fade)
Hey You Hey you, you say you wanna change the world It's alright, with me there's no regret It's my turn, the circle game has brought me here And I won't let down 'till every song is set You realize now You should have tried now, oooh The music's gone now You lost it somehow Hey you, sha lalala Hey you, sha lalala Wooo, sha la la Wooo, sha la la Hey you, you say the race is much too fast It's okay, with me I'm keeping pace It's my game, the music is inside my head For every one on top there's one who can't retrace You realize now You should have tried now, oooh ooh The music's gone now, you'll find out You lost it somehow Hey you, sha lalala Hey you, sha lalala Wooo, sha la la la Wooo, sha la la la You realize now oooh You could have died now, oooh The music's gone now You lost it somehow Hey you, hey you, sha lalala Hey you, sha lalala Wooo, sha la la Wooo, sha la la Sha lalala, hey you, hey you, hey you Sha lalala, ba-ba-ba-baby's stupid (?) Sha lalala, no time, no time left, no time Sha lalala, don't let me down, don't let me down (music and singing fades out)
Takin' Care Of Business You get up every morning From your alarm clock's warning Take the 8:15 into the city There's a whistle up above And people pushin', people shovin' And the girls who try to look pretty And if your train's on time You can get to work by nine And start your slaving job to get your pay If you ever get annoyed Look at me, I'm self-employed I love to work at nothing all day And I'll be taking care of business every day Taking care of business every way I've been taking care of business, it's all mine Taking care of business and working overtime Work out If it were easy as fishin' You could be a musician If you could make sounds loud or mellow Get a second-hand guitar Chances are you'll go far If you get in with the right bunch of fellows People see you having fun Just a-lying in the sun Tell them that you like it this way It's the work that we avoid And we're all self-employed We love to work at nothing all day And we be taking care of business every day Taking care of business every way I've been taking care of business, it's all mine Taking care of business and working overtime Take good care of my business When I'm away, every day You get up every morning From your alarm clock's warning Take the 8:15 into the city There's a whistle up above And people pushin', people shovin' And the girls who try to look pretty And if your train's on time You can get to work by nine And start your slaving job to get your pay If you ever get annoyed Look at me I'm self-employed I love to work at nothing all day And I'll be taking care of business every day Taking care of business every way I've been taking care of business, it's all mine Taking care of business and working overtime Takin' care of business Takin' care of business Takin' care of business Takin' care of business Takin' care of business ...
Gimme Your Money Please I was walking on down the alley When a face I've never seen Came so from deep in the darkness And his mouth came on real mean And I saw that he'd been liquored And he staggered up to -- you know -- he staggered up to his feet And he said, "Boy, you'd better move real slow And gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." Being born and raised in New York There ain't nothing you won't see 'Cause the streets are filled with bad goings-on And you know that's no place to be But my car broke down in the evening You know it just stopped stone cold Stopped stone cold in the street And a dirty mean man with sharp glass eyes He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." Being born and raised in New York There ain't nothing you won't see 'Cause the streets are filled with bad goings-on And you know that's no place to be But my car broke down in the evening You know it just stopped stone cold Stopped stone cold in the street And a dirty mean man with a shotgun in his hand He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." (Awww!)
