(Chorus)
I've been all over the world,
Seen all the beautiful wonderful things,
But now I'm back in town baby,
Back in town, back in town.
They said Jeremiah was a bullfrog,
That his wine was mighty fine.
I would've liked to try that fine wine,
And go a-drinkin' away the time.
The king he had some mighty fine things,
Kitty cats a-dancing and porkers with wings.
Ran I did through that treasure hold,
Making sweet love to mountains of gold.
(Chorus)
I've been all over the world,
Seen all the beautiful wonderful things,
But now I'm back in town baby,
Back in town, back in town.
If I had the run of the world,
I'll tell you what I'd do.
I'd swing by every joint in town,
And shake it till the moon goes down.
(Chorus)
I've been all over the world,
Seen all the beautiful wonderful things,
But now I'm back in town baby,
Back in town, back in town.

Not Yet.
There was so much left unsaid,
I never got to tell you.
I never got to hold you,
Before you went away.
Tell me again why I waited,
I never took my chances.
I never paid the dues,
Before you went away.
(Chorus)
You walked away,
Before I could say,
We're not done yet,
And until then my love will stay.
(Bridge)
Turn to me again,
Even if this is the end.
I need to close the book,
I need that one last look.
(Chorus)
You walked away,
Before I could say,
Don't leave me yet,
I need to say,
We're not done yet,
And until then my love will stay.
I never got to tell you.
I never got to hold you,
Before you went away.
Tell me again why I waited,
I never took my chances.
I never paid the dues,
Before you went away.
(Chorus)
You walked away,
Before I could say,
We're not done yet,
And until then my love will stay.
(Bridge)
Turn to me again,
Even if this is the end.
I need to close the book,
I need that one last look.
(Chorus)
You walked away,
Before I could say,
Don't leave me yet,
I need to say,
We're not done yet,
And until then my love will stay.
I'm Through Burning For You.
Lonely nights and lonely days,
Passed me by in your arms.
I could never make you stay,
It was always in your charms.
I was yours but you my love,
You were never truly mine.
And though I prayed to God above,
I cried to sleep every single time.
(Chorus)
I'm through burning for you.
You were never where I needed you.
I'm done breaking my heart,
Packing my bags I'm tearing us apart.
I wish I shook off that hold,
You always had on me.
You got me the very first time,
Like taking candy from a baby.
And I spent my time pining,
For that side I hoped to see.
But I can't wait my whole life,
Baby you never cared for me.
(Chorus)
I'm through burning for you.
You were never where I needed you.
I'm done breaking my heart,
Packing my bags I'm tearing us apart.
Passed me by in your arms.
I could never make you stay,
It was always in your charms.
I was yours but you my love,
You were never truly mine.
And though I prayed to God above,
I cried to sleep every single time.
(Chorus)
I'm through burning for you.
You were never where I needed you.
I'm done breaking my heart,
Packing my bags I'm tearing us apart.
I wish I shook off that hold,
You always had on me.
You got me the very first time,
Like taking candy from a baby.
And I spent my time pining,
For that side I hoped to see.
But I can't wait my whole life,
Baby you never cared for me.
(Chorus)
I'm through burning for you.
You were never where I needed you.
I'm done breaking my heart,
Packing my bags I'm tearing us apart.
We'll Rock The House.
There were times,
We thought we'd never make it.
Things were hard,
And we just couldn't fake it.
You know how you try and try,
And never get it.
You know how you throw it all,
But never stick it.
We know the feeling,
We hit the ceiling,
But we bounced back up,
So here's to never giving up.
(Chorus)
We'll rock the house,
There's nothing that can stand in our way,
Because when we shake it up,
We live it up, turn it up, burn it up,
We're the best we'll beat the rest.
The going gets tough,
And it gets hard to stick together.
But we busted through,
Stayed here for one another.
(Chorus)
We'll rock the house,
There's nothing that can stand in our way,
Because when we shake it up,
We live it up, turn it up, burn it up,
We're the best we'll beat the rest.
We thought we'd never make it.
Things were hard,
And we just couldn't fake it.
You know how you try and try,
And never get it.
You know how you throw it all,
But never stick it.
We know the feeling,
We hit the ceiling,
But we bounced back up,
So here's to never giving up.
(Chorus)
We'll rock the house,
There's nothing that can stand in our way,
Because when we shake it up,
We live it up, turn it up, burn it up,
We're the best we'll beat the rest.
The going gets tough,
And it gets hard to stick together.
But we busted through,
Stayed here for one another.
(Chorus)
We'll rock the house,
There's nothing that can stand in our way,
Because when we shake it up,
We live it up, turn it up, burn it up,
We're the best we'll beat the rest.
Ready To Have A Good Time.
Left the papers on the desk,
Stiff pencil skirts behind.
Because no way in hell I'm not fine,
I really need to have a good time.
Sweeping the streets, the lights,
Tonight babe I'm burnin' bridges.
I know what I need, what I need,
And I need to have a good time.
(Chorus)
Ready to have a good time,
Tonight we ain't toe-ing the line.
The city's all mine mine mine,
I'm so ready to have a good time.
(Bridge)
Come on girls,
I know something the secret to paradise.
We gonna clean up real nice.
They won't know what hit 'em!
Shaking my hair loose,
My drink ain't the only thing on fire.
I want it all, I want it all,
I'm feelin' like a live wire.
(Chorus)
Ready to have a good time,
Tonight we ain't toe-ing the line.
The city's all mine mine mine,
I'm so ready to have a good time.
Stiff pencil skirts behind.
Because no way in hell I'm not fine,
I really need to have a good time.
Sweeping the streets, the lights,
Tonight babe I'm burnin' bridges.
I know what I need, what I need,
And I need to have a good time.
(Chorus)
Ready to have a good time,
Tonight we ain't toe-ing the line.
The city's all mine mine mine,
I'm so ready to have a good time.
(Bridge)
Come on girls,
I know something the secret to paradise.
We gonna clean up real nice.
They won't know what hit 'em!
Shaking my hair loose,
My drink ain't the only thing on fire.
I want it all, I want it all,
I'm feelin' like a live wire.
(Chorus)
Ready to have a good time,
Tonight we ain't toe-ing the line.
The city's all mine mine mine,
I'm so ready to have a good time.
No Way.
Your swagger, your style.
Ooh baby I love it.
The room's on fire hotstuff,
I just can't get enough.
Lovin' the cheesy lines,
Boy you're so damn fine.
You get us girls derailed,
But honey honey honey,
You ain't steady material.
(Chorus)
No no no no way no way,
I'm getting with you.
Not until you get a clue.
There's no way no way,
I'm so not into you.
I need a guy who gets me,
Not just one for getting silly,
And until you get the idea,
I want you nowhere near.
You're good for a fling,
A girl does want a fun ride.
But all fun and games aside,
I need someone by my side.
(Chorus)
No no no no way no way,
I'm getting with you.
Not until you get a clue.
There's no way no way,
I'm so not into you.
Ooh baby I love it.
The room's on fire hotstuff,
I just can't get enough.
Lovin' the cheesy lines,
Boy you're so damn fine.
You get us girls derailed,
But honey honey honey,
You ain't steady material.
(Chorus)
No no no no way no way,
I'm getting with you.
Not until you get a clue.
There's no way no way,
I'm so not into you.
I need a guy who gets me,
Not just one for getting silly,
And until you get the idea,
I want you nowhere near.
You're good for a fling,
A girl does want a fun ride.
But all fun and games aside,
I need someone by my side.
(Chorus)
No no no no way no way,
I'm getting with you.
Not until you get a clue.
There's no way no way,
I'm so not into you.
