Too Hot To Move 02:55
lyrics

It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move I think I’ll fry The devil may be dancing but it’s not my style It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move I think I’ll die The heaven’s need to open to save my life It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s good to stay warm in the winter It’s good to feel cool in the spring It’s good to feel a cold wind blow in the fall But the summer heat’s doing me in It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move I think I’ll die The heaven’s need to open to save my life It’s too hot to move It’s too hot to move

I Won't Beg 03:51
lyrics

I’ve been kicked down and spat on my head I’ve been wronged for the things I might have said I’ve been vilified for the path that I might tread But no matter how it falls I wont beg I’ve been stranded where I stood and bled I’ve been the howling wind turning the sky red I’ve been laid to rest in my own bed I’ve been nailed at the scene of the crime I’ve been down where the sun won’t shine But I wont beg I wont beg no more I’ve been picked up in the eye of the storm Pushed and shoved since I was born I’ve been to paradise and seen it all but You know you have got me so that I wont beg I wont beg no more

Until I'm With You Again 03:58
lyrics

Although I can’t see I’ll continue to try And look for a space near your heart And if you persist in obstructing my view I’ll just have to find one more start I will struggle always for you Though it may cost me more than I can lose Through the wind and hard rain I will never stop ‘til I’m with you again As you lie in the bed of a friend that you know You wonder what happened there before Your head is still reeling from your nightly show Your pockets are as empty as your soul I will struggle always for you Though it may cost me more than I can lose Through the wind and hard rain I will never stop ‘til I’m with you again I will struggle always for you Though it may cost me more than I can lose Through the wind and hard rain I will never stop ‘til I’m with you again Until I’m with you again Although I can’t see I’ll continue to try And look for a space near your heart

I couldn’t stand another night without you Couldn’t take another night alone In this old house the night is far too lonely Oh my baby won’t you please come home You left me another lonely letter Explaining that you really had to go You left it lying for me in the hallway Never thought you’d really up and go You left it lying for me in the hallway Explaining that you really had to go Saw the words written on the paper But I never really thought that you would go I couldn’t stand another night without you Couldn’t take another night alone In this old house the night is far too lonely Oh my baby won’t you please come home Oh my baby please come home Oh baby please come home

Laying your head on my pillow Breathing so softly and so low I was awake but I was waiting Trying not to wake you when I go Wake with the new light of the morning The cold of the grey skies touching down You dream that you hear somebody calling But it wasn’t me babe I was gone I’ll be gone like I was never there I’ll be gone like a river flows I’ll be gone and you will not see me then I’ll be gone before you know Taking the path of least resistance Going the way that I came in Making it easier to hate me Finding you somewhere to begin I’ll be gone like I was never there I’ll be gone like a river flows I’ll be gone and you will not see me then I’ll be gone before you know

If I’m a coffin then you’re the last nail in my lid You’re like an x-ray scanner from which nothing is hid You’re like a heat seeking missile that always hits its mark If I was a corpse in the water then you’d be the shark If I’m a dog to you baby you’re the chain round my neck You’re the last straw for the camel’s back and it’s gonna break If I’m a needle you’re the haystack from which I’ll never be found If I was to scream you’d be the gag to muffle the sound If I was a knot in a rope then you’d do me uptight If I was a candle you’d be the water to extinguish my light If I’m a dog to you baby you’re the chain round my neck You’re the last straw for the camel’s back and it’s gonna break I’m the tarmac you’re the roller I’m the tooth and you’re the drill If I’m a wound then I’ll be septic You’re the germ that’s making me ill I can’t take my medicine You’re the poison in my pill If I’m a ship you’re the storm to sink me in my port You’re the horses and the hounds while I’m the fox getting caught You’re the lock on the door when I want to get in You’re the voodoo master and I’m your doll full of pins If I’m a dog to you baby you’re the chain round my neck You’re the last straw for the camel’s back and it’s gonna break I’m the tarmac you’re the roller I’m the tooth and you’re the drill If I’m a wound then I’ll be septic You’re the germ that’s making me ill You’re the poison in my medicine And the benefactor of my will

Can you feel the flames a licking round your laces and your boots Well you’re walking on this sacred ground So holy and so good, so good So good Can you feel that wind a blowing in your eyes and in your face Well the devil is a coming here to take you from this place, this place This place Well you might believe in miracles and gestures of romance But if you walk into the fire babe well then we don’t stand a chance So I’ll ask you one more time to stay Well I won’t be there beside you when you walk into the flames You’ll have to go that way alone I do not need the pain, the pain The pain Well you might believe in miracles and gestures of romance But if you walk into the fire babe well then we don’t stand a chance So I’ll ask you one more time to stay Can you feel the tension rising can you recognise the sign If you make the choice you’re making girl you can kiss it all goodbye, goodbye Goodbye Well you might believe in miracles and gestures of romance But if you walk into the fire babe well then we don’t stand a chance So I’ll ask you one more time to stay

I looked into her glistening eyes How deep they seemed to me How deep they seemed to me I could fall and swim forever Before her heart Before her heart would notice me I listened to the loveliest voice How soft it seemed to me How soft it seemed to me I could be lulled and sleep forever Before her heart Before her heart would notice me I never even thought I never even dreamed That I could be caught That you’d capture me I looked into her beautiful face How fine it seemed to me How fine it seemed to me I could stay like this forever Before her heart Before her heart would notice me Before her heart Before her heart would notice me

about

A melodic bluesy album which has an engagingly warm sound of a band performing and recording together, shoulder to shoulder in a cheap sweaty studio. Inspired by my 1990’s rhythm and blues band, Mojo Filter, in which I sang and played bass guitar. We had a lot of good original songs which featured in our many live sets over those years. It’s nice to have them together again freshly recorded after all this time.
