(Verse 1) I used to walk down the street at night
And I thought that I saw her light
Love keeps me awake in class
The sound of your voice really steams up my little heart's looking glass
(Verse 2) I used to walk by the school at night
And I dreamed that I held you tight
Class was saucy but you were so smart
Turning the key in the lock in the door of my heart
(Chorus) And I was Falling In Love With My Teacher
Falling In Love With My Teacher
(Bridge) Inside Ms Brown's burns a secret spark
I know cause I saw her kiss a man after school in the park
I'll guess she'll never know how she makes me feel
I'll come and visit her when I've become a big wheel
(Verse 3) I went into the school today
We were told she'd been transferred away
Another teacher had taken her place
A man teaching grammar with a stammer and a mole on his face
When she was angry with us, Oh that look in her eyes
When she was humoring us with her patient replies
When she was proud of us she used to glow like the Sun
I never thought that learning could be so much Fun
(Chorus) And now I'm Falling In Love With My Teacher
Falling In Love With My Teacher, Falling In Love With My Teacher etc...

(Verse 1) Ship's bells caressing the naked sea
Ready to carry me home to Thee
You are my guiding light pray for my journey tonight
(Verse 2) May moons sailing the open sea
Searching for what's deep inside of me
Farewell the Harbour lights kind star shine sweetly tonight
(Chorus) It's gonna be Smooth Sailing Darling, Smooth Sailing Tonight
It's gonna be Happy Trailing Darling, Smooth Sailing Tonight
(Verse 3) Compass and North Star agreeing
Lights of the shoreline receding
Now if the fog descends, I'll trust the seasons tonight
Waiting to hear the call, "Land Ho!"
I long to tell You I Love You so
Announcing arrivals to Home in my Heart here with You, yeah, I know
(Chorus) It's gonna be Smooth Sailing Darling, Smooth Sailing Tonight
It's gonna be Happy Trailing Darling, Smooth Sailing Tonight

(Verse 1) We need Women's talents to restore the balance for Civility
Show the way for a brighter day Creativity
(Verse 2) From the cities to the plowland please except the challenge
Embrace a lasting Peace Lend your Spirit to guide us near it, Femininity
(Bridge) Male domination, conflict, confrontation
Loading the dice against the next generation
We need open Hearts not barbed wire frontiers
We need understanding and no more fears
(Chorus) Women In Power can open doors, Women In Power will wipe out wars
We need a new day let's have Women In Power

(Chorus) Zebra Skin Shop Assistant New York Chic London Hip
Zebra Skin Shop Assistant Tequila sunrise on the Sunset Strip
(Verse 1) Just a little girl from Burton on Trent
Her Momma's still wondering where her little girl went
But her Daddy long ago gave up hope
Cause you can "hang the pope if you got enough rope"
(Chorus) Zebra Skin Shop Assistant keeps her cool like a frigidaire
Zebra Skin Shop Assistant she don't care if you're a millionaire
(Verse 2) She's a real joker a real high card
Buys Lurex panty hose by the yard
I met her in my dreams where we both co-starred
She socked it to me like the changing of the guard
(Chorus) She's a Zebra Skin Shop Assistant black laced panties and technicolor hair
Zebra Skin Shop Assistant like a candy apple at the county fair
(Verse 3) Who put the lipstick on the mirror in the little boy's room
She dresses louder than a sonic boom
She makes me wait outside the phone booth in the pouring rain
But when she struts her stuff I feel no pain
(Chorus) Zebra Skin Shop Assistant New York Chic London Hip
Zebra Skin Shop Assistant Tequila sunrise on the Sunset Strip
You can hear a pin drop when She walks into the room

(Verse 1) Oneida, Oneida, Tennessee
I got a cornbred woman waitin' on me in Oneida, Tennessee
(Verse 2) Ridin' all night to Oneida, train number 53
I'll catch that Cannon ball and make that long haul to Oneida, Tennessee
(Bridge 1) Mail pouch chew and neck bone stew, mustard greens and chicken gravy
Cornbread makin', eggs and steakin'
And there sure ain't nothin' shakin' but some hickory smoked bacon
(Verse 3) Land Sakes Mercy Child! Way down in possum country
Hear that lonesome sound, I'm on the southbound to Oneida, Tennessee
(Bridge 2) Candied yams and great big hams going to a jamboree
WLAC swingin' like Basie and it's still ain't nothing shakin' but some hickory smoked bacon
(Verse 4) Land Sakes Mercy Child! Way down in possum country
Hear that lonesome sound, I'm on the southbound to Oneida, Tennessee
Oh, Oneida, Oneida, Tennessee

Homemaker Momma

(Verse 1) Homemaker Momma with your washing on the line
Every time the baby whine, I wonder how you stand the grind
(Verse 2) Homemaker Momma do the laundry house clean
Salvage damaged cabbage on your sewing machine
(Bridge 1) Here's Daddy in the morning with his newspaper face
Time to meet the school bus at the usual place
Your cup runneth over, you've got such a green thumb
There's apple sauce on the linoleum
(Verse 3) Homemaker Momma serviced by an industry
Afternoon commercials jumping out your color TV
Homemaker Momma ignored by history
But I love you Momma 'cause ... You raised me
(Bridge 2) Here's Daddy in the evening looks like he's cracking up
It seems he sold his stock and then the Dow Jones went up
A woman's work is never done, he needs your sympathy
Give the bread winner a TV dinner (candlelight dinner)
(Verse 4) Homemaker Momma cooked the kids a big surprise
But all they really wanted was hot dogs and french fries
Homemaker Momma ignored by history
But I love you Momma 'cause ... You raised me

Steam Age

(Verse 1) The old railroad man who once drew his wage
Hands on the throttle making drivers engage
Watching the water and steam pressure gauge
Memories undimmed in the eyes of a sage
(Chorus) Of the big wheels rollin', rollin' till the break of day
They tell me nuclear power is the rage but I feel safer in the steam age
(Verse 2) Shovel 30 tons of coal through a hard working day
Drives a hundred car freight train down a steel right of way
Mechanical feats that are more than nostalgia
Haulin' the tonnage through the Green Hills of Georgia
(Chorus) Of the big wheels rollin', rollin' till the break of day
(Verse 3) I foresee that there'll soon come a time
That we miss the creations of Baldwin Alco, Altoona and Lima
The ash pit, coal shute hostler who once kept her fired
Like waterpower blacksmith now have retured
(Chorus) And the big wheels rollin', rollin' till the break of day
big wheels rollin', rollin' till the break of day
Well, nuclear power is paying a wage, but I feel safer in the steam age

(Verse 1) If you're headed for the funny farm
Let the Boogie Man grab your arm
And anybody be safe and warm, they got the Rhythm With'em
(Verse 2) The only medicine that brings relief
I've been converted and it's my belief
Well the tribe can choose The Chief, who got the Rhythm With'em
(Bridge) Well the World is full of trouble
It ain't nothin' but a bubble to burst
If you wanna solve the problem gotta exorcise the goblin first
And then you get that funny feeling all the music starts healing
All your troubles will evaporate, Oh Yeah
(Verse 3) And when the music hits your feeling great
And it's the moment you anticipate
Anybody who can syncopate has got the Rhythm With'em, Rhythm With'em

And then you get that funny feeling all the music starts healing
All your troubles will evaporate, Oh Yeah

Trying to keep up with the latest craze
