RUNAWAY BOYS (Brian Setzer/Jim McDonnel) Get kicked for coming home at dawn Mom and Dad cursed the day you were born Throw your clothes into a duffel bag Shouting and slam the door - home ir's a drag
Who can I turn to, where can I stay I know/heard the place that's open all night and all day There's a place you can go Where the cops don't know You can act real wild They don't treat you like a child
Your hair's all greasy and you feel like a slob You're under fifteen and you can't get a job Run into the luncheonette and shoot a few games Loosing all your quarters, man, it's always the same
Stealin' a couple of bucks to buy a new toy Slippin' into the attic/alley with the runaway boys
Running faster, faster all the time You're under age, man And you've got no sense of time
FISHNET STOCKINGS (Brian Setzer) My sweet baby wears fishnet stockings When she starts a-rocking There ain't no stopping
Take 'em off papadooba fishnet stockings Shoo wapadooba when she's rocking Wawadooba there ain't no stopping Rocking with my baby in the fishnet stockings
Got a pair of pink Got a pair of red When she puts the black ones on She makes me lose my head
UBANGI STOMP (Underwood) Well I rocked over Indies and I rocked in Spain Rocked in Memphis and it's all the same Till I rocked to Africa and rolled off the ship Seen them natives moving their hips Part of the week I looked over the swamp And I've seen them cats doing Ubangi Stomp

STORM THE EMBASSY (Setzer/Phantom) Fifty men taken captive in a hostile foreign land Scorching sun beating down onto miles and miles of sand A Mideast country being ruled by a man who thinks it's fun To hold our people in return for Shah that's on the run
I think it's funny Freedom takes money CHORUS It's a heartache and it's hard luck Well that's tough shit, man, it's no fun Storm in an Iranian embassy Before he starts shooting at you and me
Scores of suits take control of the diplomatic mess While the nations of the world look on and can't care less The Soviet Union won't agree to an economic ban And then they laugh and march their troops into Afganistan
On Earth from Moscow Invade Teheran now CHORUS A nation worries and reads the papers hoping that no one has died Hearing rumors that hostages will soon be tried to spy Demonstrations on the street sayin that the end is near The man from 'The New York Times' on vacation wants to know what's happened here
Address their bags now We want them back now Fifty moms crying: 'Is my son dying?'
ROCK THIS TOWN (Brian Setzer) Well, my baby and me went out late Saturday night I had my hair piled high and my baby just looked so right Picked you up at ten, gonna get you home at two Your mama don't know what I got in store for you Baby that's alright cause we're looking as cool as can be
We found a little place that really didn't look half bad I had a whisky on the rocks and change of a dollar for the jukebox Put a quarter right into that can but all it played was disco, man Come on, pretty baby, let's get outta here right away
Well, we're gonna rock this town, rock it inside out We're gonna rock this town, make 'em scream and shout Let's rock, rock, rock, man, rock We're gonna rock till we pop, gonna rock till we drop We're gonna rock this town, rock it inside out
We're having a ball just a tearin' up the big dance floor There's a real square cat he looks like 1974 Well you look at me once, look at me twice Look at me again and there's gonna be a fight We're gonna rock this town, rip this place apart
RUMBLE IN BRIGHTON (Brian Setzer/Slim Jim Phantom) Well there's rockabilly cats with their pomps real high Wearing black drape coats all real gone guys And cool skinheads with rolled-up jeans Looking really tough and mighty mean
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight Ringside seats for the neighbourhood fight There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
They've sewn fish-hooks under their collars They've got razors in their shoes 'Go, cat, go' their battle-cry World War Three is starting to brew
Now the skinheads all use blackjacks And the're looking mighty mean They've got chains wrapped around their fingers And their heads are all shaved and clean
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight Ringside seats for the neighbourhood fight There ain't a goddamned thing that the cops can do There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Well there ain't a man left standing So let's all go get a beer No team is a winner So we see ya all next year
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight Rumble on the beach tonight Rumble in Brighton tonight Rumble in Brighton tonight
There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do So line right up for a sideline view Ringside seats for the neighbourhood fight There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
STRAY CAT STRUT (Brian Setzer) Black and orange stray cat sitting on the fence Ain't got enough dough to pay the rent I'm flat broke but I don't care I strut right by with my tail in the air
Stray cat strut - ladie's cat I'm a feline casanova, hey, man, that's that Get a shoe thrown at me from a mean old man Get my dinner from a garbage can
I don't bother chasing mice around I sling down the alley looking for a fight Howling at the moonlight on a hot summer night
Singing the blues while the lady-cats cry Well stray cat you're a real dark guy I wish I could be as carefree and wild But I got cat class and I got cat style

I don't think you know you done me wrong But still I've been in love for so long But I try and I try and I try And you don't believe me
I give you my house, my heart, my home When I'm gone you're not alone You never hear the things I say And it happens everyday

I want no special woman I want no special friend I want a good time baby Come on baby try it again Don't try my number I'll tell you when
LONELY SUMMER NIGHTS (Setzer) All those long and lonely summer nights That I have spent alone Just thinking of you Don't make dreams come true When you're so far away
All those lovely moonlit summer nights I guess they're all in vain I know that I could Don't know if I should I want you in my arms again
Here I'm just sittin' lonely Just countin' the days I could stay But how do I know I still love you When you're so far away
All those long and lonely summer nights I guess they're all in vain Just thinking of you Don't make dreams come true I want you in my arms again
When you're so far away We'll be together Somehow Someday
BUILT FOR SPEED
(Setzer)
Here I come in my 57
She's a real low rider, paid perfection
With her custom engine
Painted black with flames
Ain't nobody gonna call that hotrod tame
V-8 engine with a fuel injection 283 that's my ounce of prevention Take that rod out when it's very late Haven't gotten round To gettin' license plates
Well, I'm cruisin' low And I'm cruisin' mean Well, I'm cruisin' slow In my dream machine You're my hot rod mama And you're really built for speed
When I reach that final destination I will thrive upon it Leave with compensation With a little reelin' And a lot of rockin' You're my hot rod mama In your fishnet stockings

Whoa, whoa, baby, I like your style Whoa, whoa, baby, I like your style You don't care what the other kids say you go real wild
I WON'T STAND IN YOUR WAY (Setzer) I, I got a low down dirty feeling That I've been cheated on and lie to If it's so then it's wrong We've hung on for so long Why don't we have that magic anymore
I've got a strange sneaking suspicion That it's been going on for sometime now Something shines in your eyes Something stirs deep inside I won't stand in your way anymore

Broken Man Well he walked down to the station With a pistol in his hand The heat was rising off the desert sand And it scorched the baren land
Well he packed up his bags and he headed west With a dream in his pocket he would ride The heat was rising on the desert sand From the truth he couldn't hide
Broken man Broken man with a pistol in his hand The heat was rising on the desert sand And it scorched the baren land
When he walked out of the factory With a pay check in his hand The heat was rising off the city streets And it scorched his careless hand
As he headed down his lonely streets In his broken down part of town He crossed over the dividing line And swore he'd never be found
Broken man Broken man with a pay check in his hand The heat was rising off the city streets And he scorched is calloused hand
Well he walked down to the station With a pistol in his hand The heat was rising off the city streets And it scorched his careless hand
Well he walked out of his office With a briefcase in his hand
His greed has turned to bitterness Like so many broken plans
He grabbed his coat Left his resignation on the desk He didn't leave a forwarding address The heat was rising throughout the land And through the night he ran
Broken man Broken man with a briefcase in his hand The heat was rising throughout the land And through the night he ran
Broken man Broken man with a pistol in his hand The heat was rising throughout the land And through the night he ran
Change of Heart Well it's 10:55 we're spitting out songs by the dozen And the way that you move girl it's better than a rock 'n' roll song Do you remember last night when I swore on my grave that I love you Well I just can't remember the last time I buried myself
Think it over baby Think it over darling Oh think it over baby Think it over baby before you have a change of heart
The room's getting smokey. I feel my head and it's buzzing And the way that you move girl it's better than nothing at all Well I remember the last time I saw you I was half crazy But I just can't remember the last time that you were yourself
Think it over baby Think it over darling Oh think it over baby Think it over baby before you have a change of heart
The room's getting smokey. I feel my head and it's buzzing And the way that you move girl it's better than nothing at all Well I remember the last time I saw you I was half crazy And I just can't remember the last time that you were yourself

Lady Luck Written by Brian Setzer, 1993 Two hands reach for twelve at midnight Clouds of smoke fill up the room All the boys snap to attention When Lady Luck walks into the room She's got diamonds on her fingers And she smells like fine perfume Everyone drops what they're doin' When Lady Luck walks into the room I can't rub two dimes together I'm so broke that it's a shame Though we're two birds of a feather Lady Luck don't even know my name Bartender pour her a double The band just played her favorite tune And the party's just beginning When Lady Luck walks into the room I can't rub two dimes together I'm so broke that it's a shame Though we're two birds of a feather Lady Luck don't even know my name Bartender pour her a double The band just played her favorite tune And the party's just beginning When Lady Luck walks into the room When Lady Luck walks into the room When Lady Luck walks into the room She's got a fourteen carat four-leaf clover She's got a mink rabbit's foot When Lady Luck walks into the room.
Ball and Chain (Brian Setzer, 1993) Never call when you're out late I don't know when you're comin' home Change your mind just like the weather And I don't know if I'm ever gonna Break this ball and chain And to you our love is just a little game Now there's a fine line between pleasure and pain You love me like a ball and chain When I called up information Tryin' to pinpoint a location When I find out unexpected That your nunber's disconnected Oh I got to break this ball and chain And to you our love is just a little game Now there's a fine line between pleasure and pain You love me like a ball and chain I spent all my money On a big shiny car I spent all my time In the back of a bar Drivin down the highway But I never get far Keepin up with you baby's like chasin a star Never call when you're out late I don't know when you're comin' home Change your mind just like the weather And I don't know if I'm ever gonna Break this ball and chain And to you our love is just a little game Now there's a fine line between pleasure and pain You love me like a ball and chain There's a fine line between pleasure and pain love me like a ball and chain There's a fine line between pleasure and pain love me like a ball and chain.

September Skies Written by Brian Setzer/William Carter/Christine Schmidt/Ruth Ellsworth, 1993 Funny how that memory never dies And when that first leaf falls Days turn cold, nights grow long Like an old Sinatra song And every year right about this time I wind up here wishing that winds of fate would bring you back to me beneath September Skies I should've known better than to count on the weather summer's long gone, still holdin' on A fool pretendin' that love's never ending With the first sign of fall, I still recall September Skies The autumn melody clouds my eyes And I'll never see, why you're gone And I dream all alone Beneath Setember Skies I should've known better than to count on the weather summer's long gone, still holdin' on A fool pretendin' that love's never ending With the first sign of fall, I still recall September Skies The autumn melody clouds my eyes And I'll never see, why you're gone And I dream all alone Beneath Setember Skies.

A nightingale sang in Berkely Square Written by Eric Maschwitz/Manning Sherwin, 1940 That certain night The night we met There was magic abroad in the air There were angels dining at the Ritz And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square I may be right I may be wrong But I'm perfectly willing to swear That when you turned and smiled at me A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square The moon that lingered over London town Poor puzzled moon he wore a frown How could he know we two were so in love The whole damned world seemed upside down The streets of town were paved with stars It was such a romantic affair And as we kissed and said goodnight A nightingale sang in Berekeley Square How strange it was How sweet and strange There was never a dream to compare To those hazy crazy nights we met And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square Ah this heart of mine Loud and fast Like a merry-go-round in a fair We would dance cheek to cheek And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square The dawn came staeling up All gold and blue To interrupt our rendez-vous I still remember how you smiled and said Was that a dream or was it true? Our homeward step was just as light As the dancing feet of Astaire And like an echo far away And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square That night in Berkeley Square.

NINE LIVES (Setzer/Rocker/Phantom)
I got nine lives, baby I just keep coming back I got nine lives, baby I just keep coming back I got nine lives I nearly lost them all But each and every time I really had a ball I got nine lives, baby I just keep coming back
First time that it happened Well how was I supposed to know She loved me then she left me It was a long long time ago Numbers 8 and 7 well they flew by like a wind Don't stick around for me baby I'm comin' back again
CHORUS
I had fun with #6 poor baby I got stuck on 5 She took all my money honey she buried me alive Four and three got better while I tried for number two That one almost killed me and don't you think it can't happen to you
I got just one life left I'm gonna live it all But just one last chance baby I got to drive this lesson/last one home No more whiskey no more wine No more women this time There goes a kitten I'm smitten I'm a fool again

BEAUTIFUL BLUES (Brian Setzer/Larson Paine) Always a queen Always so fine Always some joker Standin' in line To get a view Now he's hittin' on you
Let me hear you sing it Baby sing the beautiful blues
Since you were a babe You've been heaven sent Just think of all the money These crazy men have spent On you I guess I'm one of them too
Now there must be times When you get tired Of being idolized It's got you searchin' for a man Who ain't that kind of guy
Where you gonna be When you get old You're gonna need somebody To have and to hold On to Who really cares about you
