Hey now Darlin,
You wanna go
Down to the River,
Where that water flows?
Went down to the Rivier
Went down Stream
Went to the Ocean
Oh my Girl and me
Take me back
Where I wanna be,
Back to the Ocean
Oh my Girl and me
Whether it be
Oceans or Streams
That water's got
Both my Girl and me

Hold You Tight

I can feel you close
by the way you're holding me so tight
I can feel you close
by the way you're holding me so tight
I just wanna make love to you,
It's a feeling I can't fight.
Have you every felt such a love,
So sweet and so true
Have you ever felt such a love
So sweet and so true?
I just gotta hold you tight
and make sweet love to you.
Well, there's a pain I feel
When you're away from me
There's a pain I feel
When you're away from me
I just gotta hold you tight,
It's the way it's supposed to be.

You'll Never Be Alone
03:36

When you wake up in the morning
And the sun refuse to shine
Who's the one that you call out to,
Who's the one that's by your side?
And if a hint of doubt surrounds you,
And there's worry in your eyes
Hush my love now don't you know
That I'm always by your side
And as I hold my arms around you
Your head heavy on my heart
Bound together by a love
That will never fall apart
And in a life full of delusion,
Not a single light is shown,
Always one thing you can count on
Yeah, you'll never be alone
Yeah, you'll never be alone
Yeah, you'll never be alone

Melody

Went to the station
Try to catch my car
Took the 5:15
Couldn't go very far
Take me home to where I wanna be
Take me home to my sweet Melody
Bag on my back,
Ticket in my hand
Hear my Melody
Said you don't understand
Five long years past
since my baby done me wrong
Now these old tracks
Gonna listen to my song
Take me home to where I wanna be
Take me home to my sweet Melody
So I took the 5:15
back to my hometown
The man he asked me
What's been going down
Said my girl left
and she done me wrong
Hear My Melody
Listen to my song
Take me home to where I wanna be
Take me home to my sweet Melody

The Artist
06:44
|

A new world to untrained eyes
Of wonder, color, fantastic lies
Amidst the crowds of tear-stained eyes
You'll find the Artist, no emotional ties
The Artist, with cold, far away stare,
Looks through the smoke with a skeptical glare.
He sees the world, no rose-colored flare
And with a heavy heart, apart the world will tear.
Woah, oh, the Artist knows
How the story goes, oh no
Alone, the Artist sits and waits
The elite critique the meek with hate
While the beggar pleads, the mogul takes
But the world can't see man's mistakes
Woah, oh, the Artist knows
How the story goes, oh no
And with his gift, the Artist embarks
To enlighten the world on what's kept in the dark
He knows that once he's left his mark
The world erupts with just a single spark
Woah, oh, the Artist knows
How the story goes, oh no

Free
04:32

It's a shame,
In this new town
The sunset's not the same
In the underground
Follow me, unbound, Fee to be
but you can't see what's holding you down
An Angel told me
Yesterday afternoon
As the sun slips through the trees
Like string through the loom
"Follow me, unbound, Free to be"
and she led me straight into the room
Listen here, Have you heard
of the man who leads the Free?
You see, he spoke a word
of New World Order and peace
He said
"Follow me, unbound, Free to be,
but just don't see I'm holding your leash."

Shook My World

Some people say love is a game of give and take
Some say love is a game of give and take
On the day I met you baby, woah how my world did shake
I woke up yesterday morning,
scent of you in my nose
asked myself what was going on
Where in the world did my world go
Some say love is a game of give and take
On the day I met you baby, Woah how my world did shake
I can't quit you baby, no matter how hard I try
No I can't quit you girl, no matter how hard I try
If I gotta go another day without you
I just might as well curl up and die.

Hughes Taylor Macon, Georgia
An old soul hailing from Macon Georgia USA, Hughes Taylor was immediately drawn to the blues when he first picked up the
guitar. Today an accomplished guitar player with a voice that is bigger than he is, Hughes has developed his signature style: a fiery brand of blues-rock whose lineage stretches back to Stevie Ray Vaughan and Cream.
