A hundred thousand dollars
Wouldn't touch the price I paid Of the hundred thousand moments Of the times I wish I'd stayed. But even if I had all the time and money, It's still the same old news. Nothin' does you any good When you got 2000 blues. Ten thousand clouds On a rainy rainy day Couldn't wash away All the dust and the haze. But I tried and I tried To search for all the clues, Why I can't wash away These 2000 blues. If I had an airplane With a co-pilot too, I'd fly to a planet That was closest to you. I'd set the tracking system With your safety fuse, And set the countdown For 2000 blues. |

Drivin' down the highway at night When you feel that Wild Turkey's bite Don't give Johnny Walker a ride, 'Cause Jack Flash is right by your side You might get taken to a jailhouse and find You been arrested for driving while blind Now just the other night with nothin' to do And a case of Proof 1-0-2. I started itchin' for that wonderful feel Of rollin' in an automobile Now you could say we were out of our minds, But let me tell ya, we were flyin' while blind. Then he had us up against the wall, Hey! it's only blood-grain alcohol There ain't no cause for alarm We ain't out to do nobody no harm Now how could anyone be so unkind As to arrest a man for driving while blind? |

See that girl with the red dress on,
she can do it all night long, she's a bad girl, she's a bad girl. I know a girl that likes to flirt, she can do it in a mini skirt. She's a bad girl, she's a bad girl. Ain't it a shame when a girl goes bad, it's enough to drive you mad. Yesterday I was playin' it cool but she played me for a first class fool, she's a bad girl, she's a bad girl. I'm gonna tell you like I told some friends I'm goin' back to dig her again. She's a bad girl, she's a bad girl. Ain't it a shame when a girl goes bad, it's enough to drive you mad. I know a girl with a GTO, she's the one that go cat go, she's a bad girl, she's a bad girl. See the girl dressed in green, she's the one that's a mean machine, she's a bad girl, she's a bad girl.

Deep in the South of Texas
not so long ago, there on a crowded island in the Gulf of Mexico it didn't take too much money, man, but it sure was nice. You could dance all night if you felt all right, drinking whiskey and throwing dice. And everybody knows it was hard to leave. And everybody knows it was down at the Balinese. Yeah, I remember Ruby, she always dressed in red wearing skintight pants, Lord, and how she could dance with a rag wrapped around her head. And everybody knows it was hard to leave. And everybody knows it was down at the Balinese. And everybody knows it was hard to leave. And everybody knows it was down at the Balinese, it was down at the Balinese, it was down at the Balinese. - Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill & Frank Beard |

I heard about the rock for sometime, I know.
It's easy to do when you feel the roll. Makes you want to get up, makes you wanna move your feet. No matter how it's done you know it can't be beat. 'Cause I can't stop rockin', no, I can't stop rockin'. Well, I can't stop rockin', baby, till I lose my mind. Somebody said it's wrong but I know it's all right, then it really hits you like a shot in the night. I'm never gonna stop as long as I can stay. Listen to me now, can't you hear me say, I can't stop rockin', no, I can't stop rockin'. Well, I can't stop rockin', baby, till I lose my mind. I like to work it down low, I like to work it to the top. And when it starts rockin' I ain't never gonna stop. Get yourself loose, get yourself high. I love to feel the motion and I'm tellin' you why. 'Cause I can't stop rockin', no, I can't stop rockin'. No, I can't stop rockin no matter what they do do do do do or say.

Seein' things like I've never seen And it's taking me outta sight. Lookin' high and low, don't know where to go, I got to double back, my friend. The only way to find, what I left behind I got to double back again, double back again. It's got me up and down, I been lost and found, Down in a deep dark hole. Looks like my luck has changed, I been rearranged And I'm coming out on a roll. Lookin' high and low, don't know where to go, I got to double back, my friend. The only way to find, what I left behind I got to double back again, double back again. |

When I woke up this mornin'
had a smile run across my face. My baby from town just had to get down, come and drag me all over the place. Gonta drive on a flatbed trailer truck down on highway fifty-nine. I had the blues and my baby, she knew she's holdin' little piece of mind. Down brownie, my brownie downtown, down brownie. Got my share and I'm a black hand cottonfield just to try and keep myself alive. Eatin' red beans and rice with the rat's hole, it's nice or anything you wanna try. Now I'm hitchin' a ride back from Brownie's, I'm kind of sad but I feel alright. The cold night it stings but I got me some wings, I'll be flyin' into Houston tonight. - Billy Gibbons |

Got a girl, her name's Francine,
finest thing you ever seen. And I love her, she's all that I want. And I need her, she's all that I need. Well, Francine, oh Francis, why do you love me and make me cry? How I love her, she's all that I want. How I need her, she's all that I need. If I ever caught her with Stevie P I'd throw her back in the Penitentiary, now. And if I caught her with my mother's son I'll call her daddy and get my gun. My Fancine just turned thirteen, she's my angelic teenage queen. And I love her, she's all that I want.

I just got paid today,
got me a pocket full of change. Said, I just got paid today, got me a pocket full of change. If you believe like workin' hard all day, just step in my shoes and take my pay. I was born my papa's son, when I hit the ground I was on the run. I had one glad hand and the other behind. You can have yours, just give me mine. When the houd dog barkin' in the black of the night, stick my hand in my pocket, everything's all right. I just got paid today, got me a pocket full of change. Said, black sheep, black, do you got some wool? Yes, I do, man, my bag is full. It's the root of evil and you know the rest but it's way ahead of what's second best. - Billy Gibbons & Bill Ham |

Made me feel better than I ever felt. But bless her heart, she couldn't stay, I begged her not to go away. She left my ex best friend out in old Tucson, Told me she was leavin and would be rollin on. Now the days just pass on by, Losin' her is the reason why. Leila, Leila your mind will be flying high And everything will be alright. You know I love you girl more than I can say, I still think about you each and every day. My lonesome old hearttill feels the same, So Leila won't you steal away. Leila, Leila your mind will be flying high And everything will be alright. Leila, Leila your mind will be flying high And everything will be alright. |

It must have been the way that she kissed me, made me as weak as a lamb. Tastes so fine like french silk pie, sweet as strawberry jam. It could have been the thing that she told me, when she threw her wrench at my monkey. Shoulda been a cool scene, Like honey on a ripped queen. I thought it was a day-dream, But it must have been a lovething. I smiled at the way that she told me, "I just can't turn you a-loose." She was a force majeure in her haute couture, I was howlin' at the moon. That's when I jumped out of her window, Before my monkey could cook her goose. Shoulda been a cool scene, Like honey on a ripped queen. I thought it was a day-dream, But it must have been a lovething |

High class Slim came floatin' in
down from the county line. Just gettin' right on Saturday night, ridin' with some friends of mine. They invited me just to come and see just what was on their minds and then I took my first long look at the Master of Sparks on high. In the back of Jimmy's Mack stood a round steel cage welded into shape by Slim, made out of sucker gauge. How fine, they cried, now with you inside, strapped in there safe and sound. I thought, my-o-my, how the sparks will fly if that thing ever hit the ground. Slim was so pleased when I had eased into his trap of death. He had slammed the door but I said no more and I though I'd breathed my last breath. We was out in the sticks down Highway Six and the crowd was just about right. The speed was too, so out I flew like a stick of rollin' dynamite. When I hit the ground you could hear the sound and see the sparks a country mile. End over end I began to spin but the ball started runnin' wild. But it was too late as I met my fate and the ball started gettin' hot. But through the sparks and the flame I knew that the claim of the Master of Sparks was gone. - Billy Gibbons |

She works the cantina, dancin' and a-lovin's her trade. Her mama was Mez'can and her daddy was the ace of spades. Oh, let's drive that old Chrysler down to Mexico, boy. Said, keep your hands on the wheel there. Oh, it sure is fine, ain't it? Now, ya got it! Hand me another one of them brews from back there. Oh, this is gonna be so good. Mm, she's hot as a pepper but smooth as a Mexican brew. So head for the border and put in an order or two. The wings of the blackbird will spread like an eagle for you.

Connie's in the whirlpool, Jimmy's tryin' to be cool, Libby's in the bushes 'cause she's nobody's fool. We turned the lights down low and had a party on the patio. Heard the cops are coming so we tried to jump the fence, Mary didn't make it and we haven't seen her since.
