Assembly Line
I'm working in a place at the edge of town
Doing the best I could
Pumping the night shift through my veins
The foreman seems to like me
And the overtime is good...double on Sunday
And when I'm keeping industrial time
Putting out for the company
I'm a go-getter and I'm a hard hitter
I'm working the assembly line
These wheels I'm driving now
I bought on time with nothing down
Considering my ambition
I'm a long-term investment
That the company thinks is sound, solid boy solid
And if production needs don't decline
And the workers keep working
I'll be a go getter, I'll be a bread winner
I'll be working the assembly line, making time & a half
And I got a little girl that's special
She keeps me off the street
Demanding nothing
She wraps herself around me
And squeezes tenderly...mercy, have mercy
And when I'm lying in her arms
I get sentimental
I'm gonna take care of her, I'm gonna provide
I'm gonna work the assembly line
Collect that product
Select your best shot & feed it on through to me
Machine perfection, it's got to be
Fabricated, shaved down & passed along to me
Face to face, back to back
Bolted into place
Tighten up the slack
Can you feel the heat
I've got a quota to meet...Put your back into it...
Heartbeat of Love
There is no introduction
No amount of time
Forget the dark suspicion
Ain't no fancy line
There is no opposition
No weapons to deploy
Without the conversation
No clever words to employ
There's just the heartbeat of love
There's no one here to guide us
No direction back
No fear & no rejection
No one to distract
No one down below us
Just the moon above
And just the heartbeat of love
With the moon above to keep us safe
Just slip your arm around this waist
And feel this heartbeat
With no one to keep track
There's no need to hurry up and get back
There's only time
And just the heartbeat of love
There is no cause to change
No questions to be found
And when we come together
There is no other sound
Just the wind to cool us
As we come burning down
And just the heartbeat of love....
Cadillac Bar & Grill
Mickey's got a brand new deal
Got her name on a marquee
She's the high-steppin' star of the show
You can see her every night
Underneath that hot light
Plugged into a double-shot glow
And it's an easy stroll
To the Cadillac Bar & Grill
Bar boppers with the import blonds
And them late night liasons
Just out of reach of the light
They can fold them twentys twice
And lay 'em there as a tip to entice
Settin' 'em up and knocking 'em down
And it's an easy stroll
To the Cadillac Bar & Grill
Hummin' hot with a foot to the throttle
Strippin' down to the rythmn of the bottle
Mickey's got a brand new thrill
You can see her every night
Underneath that hot light
Plugged into a double-shot glow
She's the star of the show
And it's an easy stroll
To the Cadillac Bar & Grill
Firefly
Evening falls and you're in flight
Puttin' the sparkle onto the night
Teasing me, you're pleasing me
Little Firefly
Turnin' it off and turnin' it on
Lovin' the way that you're carrying on
Fly for me, won't you fly for me
Little Firefly
Under the sweetgum, beside the road
Out through the tall grass
Let your trail unfold
Into your forest I'm following now
Take me as far as the night will allow
Jewell of the dark with your
Sparkle and flair
Sailing along on the warm Summer air
Fly for me, won't you fly for me
Little Firefly...
