Cadillac Baby lyrics - Colin James

Cadillac baby
How that woman loves to ride
Yeah, Cadillac baby
How that woman loves to ride
She's crazy 'bout that hydromatic
Cause its such an easy ride

She loves her rollin, how she loves to ball the jack
Crazy bout her rollin, how she loves to ball the jack
She's crazy about that easy ridin, crazy bout that Cadillac

Turn on the radio and cruise on down
The avenue
Yeah, turn on the radio and cruise on
Down the avenue
She's crazy about my caddy
And I'm crazy for my baby too

Well, long about midnight she came
Knockin on my door
Yeah, long about midnight she came
Knockin' on my door
Gotta take out that caddy
Baby wants to ride some more

Yeah at night we went riding
Riding in the rain
She was my baby
And I was her man

She said honey ride a long long time
You rock so easy, so mellow and fine
If you get tired of ridin, give yourself a rest
Park it in the spot that your baby loves the best
Cadillac baby
How that woman loves to ride
Yeah Cadillac baby
How that woman loves to ride
Crazy bout that easy ridin'
How she loves that Cadillac

Go
Let it roll

I gotta roll
All night long
Gotta roll
All night long
Yes we gotta roll pretty darlin'
Roll all night long

That's What You Do To Me lyrics - Colin James

(originally by Rosco Gordon)

I start a conversation and my mind goes blank
Well ask my name I can't even think
I'm sure not hungry when it's time to eat
My pants is on backwards, shoes on the wrong feet

That's what you do to me, that's what you do to me
I don't care what you call it, that's what you do to me

Well some say it's luck, others say it's a curse
And many people tell me I'm living in reverse
I use oil on my face and powder in my hair
I'm a stained jacket man but I just don't care

That's what you do to me, that's what you do to me
I don't care what you call it, that's what you do to me

Well here and there, I've travelled everywhere
But I've never been able to find this feeling so rare
Up and down and all around
I can get this crazy, crazy, crazy feeling when you're 'round

That's what you do to me, that's what you do to me
I don't care what you call it, that's what you do to me

Well here and there, I've travelled everywhere
Well here and there, I've travelled everywhere
That's what you o to me...

Sit Right Here lyrics - Colin James

I'm gonna sit right here and wait until my baby comes home
Well I know I never done anyone wrong
I hold my head up high, I never lose my smile
I'm half cryin' but it's down inside
I'm gonna sit right here and wait until my baby comes home

Tell me, tell me, tell me what have I done wrong
Well I'm outta my mind why, why can't we get along
This can't be life, this can't be death
Without you, ohh, I don't want no one else
I'm gonna sit right here and wait until my baby comes home

Well I've been sittin' right here such a long, long time
Watching these walls I'm gonna lose my mind
Won't you please come back and try me one more time
Before I go insane, yeah yeah

Tell me, tell me, tell me what have I done wrong
Well I'm outta my mind why, why can't we get along
This can't be life, this can't be death
Without you, ohh, I don't want no one else
I'm gonna sit right here and wait until my baby comes home

Three Hours Past Midnight lyrics - Colin James

(originally by Johnny "Guitar" Watson)

It is three hours past midnight
And my baby's nowhere around
Yes three hours past midnight
And my baby's nowhere around

Well, I listen so hard to hear her footsteps
I ain't even heard a sound
Well, I toss and tumble on my pillow
But I just can't close my eyes

Oh, I toss and tumble on my pillow
But I just can't close my eyes
If my baby don't come back pretty soon
Yes, I just can't be satisfied now

Look out
Look out
Keep right on

Well, I tried so hard to take
But my baby's drivin' me insane
Well, I tried so hard to take
Oh yeah

But my baby's drivin' me insane
Well if she's don't come back pretty soon
Yeah, gonna catch that midnight train
Yeah

Satellite lyrics - Colin James

She's as free as the blue horizon
I'm a slave to this gravity
And every night, I hope and pray
She came back down to me

I keep my eyes on the stars
I track the heavens above my lonely world
I'm tracking her trajectory
She's my baby, she's my little satellite

We met at the Lunar Hilton
On a sea of tranquility
And maybe I was dreamin'
But we was shacked up at the honeymoon suite

She was a wonderful girl
It was a heavenly night
But the stars were wrong
I woke up she was gone
Like a memory
She's probably just out of site
She's my little satellite

I look for the sun where the stardust shines in the twilight
Constantly searching the constellations
Trying to determine the destination
Since I let her drift away
My heart is always lost in space
She's my baby
She's my little satellite

I look for the sun where the stardust shines in the twilight
Constantly searching the constellations
Trying to determine the destination
Since I let her drift away
My heart is always lost in space

She's infinitely stebular
She's not exactly down to Earth
It's crazy but for what it's worth
She's my baby
She's probably just out of sight
She's my little satellite
She's my little satellite
Satellite, satellite, satellite
Oh she's my little satellite

Surely (I Love You) lyrics - Colin James

(originally by Rosco Gordon)

Surely
Surely
Surely
Surely

I, I, I, I
Well I love her
V-v-love her
V-v-love her
V-v-love her
V-v-love you

Come rain, come snow, come a-come sunshine
Your love would stop the rain
It would melt the snow
Girl your mine
Mine
And all I've got to say
Ah when I feel this way
Is that I, I
I love her
V-v-love her
V-v-love her
V-v-love her
V-v-love you

Well I love you because
Darlin' you're so real
You show this heart of mine
How real true love it ought to feel

Surely
Surely
Surely
Surely

I, I, I, woah
Watch it now

I love you because
Honey you're so real
You show my achin' heart
How real true love it ought to feel

Surely
Surely
Surely
Surely
I, I, I, I
Well I love her
V-v-love her
V-v-love her
V-v-love her
V-v-love you

Breakin' Up The House lyrics - Colin James

Over in the house every night
I bet they have a meetin' and some kind of fight
Yes, they're breakin' up the house
Yeah, breakin' up the house
If we don't have a meetin' they're gonna have some kind of fight

Monday's this, Tuesday's that
Wednesdays is the neighborhood chewin' up the fat

Yes, we're breakin' up the house
Yeah, breakin' up the house
If we don't have a meetin'
Then everybody's gonna get real tight

I walked to the corner called the raisin' sun
Raisin' up the roof for as all they've done

Yeah, they're breakin' up the house
They're breakin' up the house
If they open up the bottle
Then everybody gets real tight

Last night and the night before
55 people came walkin' through my door
Yeah, they're breakin' up the house
Aw, they're breakin' up the house
And if they don't have a meetin'
They gonna have some kind of fight

Well, they party in the attic and the cellar too
Call me so crazy man I don't know what to do

Yes, they're breakin' up the house
They're breakin' up the house
And if they don't have a meetin'
They sure gonna have some kind fight

In walked Cindy Lou
She brought her whole family too
Took off the hats, coats and shoes
They ate up all the food then they took
A little snooze

Yes, they're breakin' up the house
They're breakin' up the house
If they don't have a meetin'
They still gonna have a [?]

Yeah, breakin' up the house
Yeah, we're breakin' up the house
Oh, breakin' up the house
Well, we're breakin' up the house

If they don't have a meetin'
They gonna have some kind a fight
Yeah, if they don't have a meetin'
They sure gonna have a fight

No More Doggin' lyrics - Colin James

Honey, no more doggin', foolin' 'round with you
Honey, no more doggin', foolin' 'round with you
I'm gonna let'cha out baby, and that's what I've got to do

Well, told you all the straights and I made you fine
You spend my money on whiskey, beer and wine
No more doggin', foolin' 'round with you
I'm gonna let'cha out baby, and that's what I've got to do

Well, ya told me that'cha love me and you told me a lie
Yes, I'll love you until the day I die
No more doggin', foolin' 'round with you
I gotta let'cha out, baby, and that's what I've got, oh yes
Well, ya know I love ya baby and I can't help myself

Yes, I'll love you until the day I die
No more doggin', foolin' 'round with you
I gotta let'cha out, baby, and that's what I've got to do
I gotta let'cha out, baby, and that's what I've got to do
I gotta let'cha out, baby, and that's what I've got to do

Evenin' lyrics - Colin James

Evening, every night you come and you find me
And you always remind me that my baby's gone
Evening, you got me deeply in your power
Every minute seems just like an hour, now that my baby's gone

Shadows fall upon the wall, that's the time I miss your kiss most of all
Even though I try, how can I go on
Oh evening, let me sleep till glow of dawn is breakin'
I don't care if I don't awaken, since my baby's gone

Shadows fall upon the wall, that's the time I miss your kiss most of all
Even though I try, how can I go on
Evening, let me sleep till glow of dawn is breakin'
I don't care if I don't awaken, since my man is gone

Train Kept A Rollin' lyrics - Colin James

I caught the train, I met a real dame
She was a hipster, and a gone dame
She was pretty, from New York City
And she trucked on down in old Fairlane
With a heave, and a ho
And I just couldn't let her go

Well, so get along, sweet little woman, get along
You better be on your way
Get along, sweet little woman, get along
You better be on your way
With a heave, and a ho
And I just couldn't let her go

Well, this train kept a-rollin', all night long
Yes this train kept a-rollin', all night long
Yeah the train kept a-rollin', all night long
Yes this train kept a-rollin', all night long
With a heave, and a ho
And I just couldn't let her go

I made a stop at Albuquerque
She must have thought I was a real gone jerk
I got out that train in El Paso
Her lovin' was so fun, Jack, I couldn't let her go

So. Get along, sweet little woman, get along
You better be on your way
Get along, sweet little woman, get along
You better be on your way
With a heave, and a ho
And I just couldn't let her go

Well, this train kept a-rollin', all night long
Yes this train kept a-rollin', all night long
Yeah the train kept a-rollin', all night long
Yes this train kept a-rollin', all night long
With a heave, and a ho
And I just couldn't let her go

Well, so get along, sweet little woman, get along
You better be on your way
Get along, sweet little woman, get along
You better be on your way
With a heave, and a ho
And I just couldn't let her go

Leading Me On lyrics - Colin James

I know you don't love me no more
You're not the kind that would tell me so
So, be a woman and talk to me
If that the way that you'd rather be
Feel sorry for me in one way
You've got to hurt me by telling me someday
So, get it over baby
Please stop leadin' me on

You're feeling miserable and I'm the cause
And feeling sorry won't help me long
I really hate to see you living this way
But I'll go on and I'll make it someday

I know you don't love me no more
You're not the kind that would tell me so
So, be a woman and talk to me
If that the way that you'd rather be
Feel sorry for me in one way
You've got to hurt me by telling me someday
So, get it over baby
Please stop leadin' me on

Ohhh get it over baby
Ohhh yeah

You're feeling miserable and I'm the cause
And feeling sorry won't help me long
I really hate to see you living this way
But I'll go on and I'll make it someday

I know you don't love me no more
You're not the kind that would tell me so
So, be a woman and talk to me
If that the way that you'd rather be
Feel sorry for me in one way
You've got to hurt me by telling me someday
So, get it over baby
Please stop leadin' me
Get it over baby
Please stop leadin' me
Get it over baby
Please stop leadin' me on
