Magic Man DREAMBOAT ANNIE
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson
Cold late night so long ago
When I was not so strong you know
A pretty man came to me
Never seen eyes so blue.
I could not run away
It seemed we'd seen each other
in a dream
It seemed like he knew me
He looked right through me.
"Come on home girl" he said with a smile
"You don't have to love me yet
Let's get high awhile
but try to understand
Try to understand
Try try try to understand
I'm a magic man".
Winter nights we sang in tune
Played inside the months of moon
Never think of never
Let this spell last forever
Summer lover passed to fall
Tried to realize it all
Mama says she's worried
Growing up in a hrry
"Come on home girl" Mama cried on the phone
"too soon to lose my baby yet
my girl should be at home!"
"But try to understand
Try to understand
Try try try to understand
He's a magic man, Mama
He's a magic man."
"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"I cast my spell of love on you
a woman from a child!
but try to understand
try to understand
I'm a magic man!"
Dreamboat Annie (Fantasy Child) DREAMBOAT ANNIE
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson
Heading out this morning
into the sun
Riding on the diamond waves
little darlin' one
Warm wind caress her
her lover it seems
Oh Annie
dreamboat Annie
my little ship of dreams
[Lay offshore for a night
the moon almost touches the sea
off to star board
laughing tricks of light that never deceive
though she's just a child
Sitting on the beach watching for a sail
at last swimming out the silver trail
leaving her shoes behind on the sand.
She's a fantasy child tonight
skimming the mirror waves
headed out somewhere
won't be back for awhile]
Crazy on You DREAMBOAT ANNIE
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson
We may still have time
We might still get by
Every time I think about it I want to cry
With the bombs and the devils
and the kids keep coming
Nowhere to breathe easy...no time to be young
but I tell myself that I'm doing all right
there's nothing left to do tonight
but go crazy on you
My love is the evening breeze touching your skin
the gentle sweet singing of leaves in the wind
the whisper that calls after you in the night
and kisses your ear in the early light
You don't need to wonder...you're doing fine
and my love, the pleasure's mine
let me go crazy on you
Wild man's world is crying in pain
what're you going to do? everybody's insane
so afraid of one who's so afraid of you
what're you going to do?
I was a willow last night in my dream
I bent down over a clear running stream
I sang you the song that I heard up above
and you keep me alive with your sweet, flowing love...
Soul of the Sea DREAMBOAT ANNIE
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson
Today
you looked around to my heart's call
this tiny life ain't been strangled after all
time time time time
never ask what's become of us
just dedicate your sorrow
here and now
to the soul of the sea
and me
Rushin' to me
you turned around to my song's call
you dreamer in the sand
just lie there laughing till the fall
Kindest lover
I can't stay along tonight
bring me all your love
here and now
come rushin' to me
Wake up late
without a smile
telephone rings
you run like a child
on the street
into the day
the people I meet
have nothing to say
no smile
no sorrow
no laughter
no tommorrow
They talk hen to hen
they talk about their men
and practice all the tricks for them
Too soon nightime's coming on
deep in the drakness feeling alone
no rain
no seed
no dreams
no silence
Far away today
Mama ocean hold me to you
rock me on your waves
and tell me...
is it all true?
Time time time time
never ask what's become of us
dedicate your sorrow
here and now
to the soul the sea
and me
Dreamboat Annie DREAMBOAT ANNIE
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson
Heading out this morning
into the sun
Riding on the diamond waves
little darlin' one
Warm wind caress her
her lover it seems
Oh Annie
dreamboat Annie
my little ship of dreams
Going down the city sidewalk
alone in the crowd
No one knows the lonely one
whose head's in the clouds
Sad faces painted over
with those magazine smiles
heading out to somewhere
won't be back
for a while
White Lightning & Wine DREAMBOAT ANNIE
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson
This night's gone...we're moving on
highway's calling aloud
I bring them in with eyes of sin
it's a down drinkin' freak crowd
chew you up
and spit you out
never want to know your name
don't want to know you
but I sure want to show you
will forget I came
Oh the world's all mine
white lightning and wine
Came on so fast
when did I last feel this fine?
White lightning and wine.
Sweet little one let me love you some
take me or leave me alone
the gooder they come, the harder the fall
turn around you are a nasty joke
Yeah we all laugh
oh hah what a gas!
Watching you chew on the bones
In the morning light you didn't look so nice
Guess you'd better hitch hike home.
(Love Me Like Music) I'll be Your Song DREAMBOAT ANNIE
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson
These have been quiet days
when was the last time I wanted to sing
last few dying days
hanging on - what will they bring?
Even you and me
we keep coming apart
and it's a wrong thing
We gotta look right at each other and say it
turn on the radio and play it
and all in love again
Can you feel the light shine
You know this song's yours and mine
ain't it good to know you've got a place to go
where the melody's fine
SOmetimes I'm not so strong
and even now I could be wrong
but if you love me like music
I'll be your song
Lately the day's been grey
and time's been hard
man up in town putting everybody down
watch him play his card
when you get free come on home to me
I'm gonna lay it down
We got love - we've got to feel it and show it
make each other really know it
and fall in love again
we've got to be friends.
Sing Child DREAMBOAT ANNIE
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, Steve Fossen, Roger Fisher

"Sing Child"
How Deep it Goes DREAMBOAT ANNIE
Ann Wilson
In the quiet afternoon you left and went down
into town
And I just watched the empty road behind you.
Where the fog lies kissing the mountainside
You want to lie sleeping...deep inside
believing that the hungry world won't find you.
Well that's just fine
that's just fine
You've got to believe
and I don't know - I don't know
what I believe anymore
Or whether or leave, or whether to stay
or what I can say
to make you know
how deep it goes
Somebody turned on the dirty blues
I know you don't like the blues
cause the words are always the same
and they kind of remind you
Somebody turned the blues on me
I don't like the blues cause I can't see
through the tears that come
and make it hard to find you
Come on down
Come on down
You've got to come lay down here
and say those things
those warm things
Right here in my ear
the times that you had that water like wine
so clean and so fine
to make me know
how deep it goes
Well that's just fine
that's just fine
you've got to believe
and I don't know
I don't know
if I could leave anymore
even though there's a scar
still fresh from the war
don't think about it no more
letting new love flow
how deep it goes
Dreamboat Annie (Reprise) DREAMBOAT ANNIE
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson
Heading out this morning
into the sun
Riding on the diamond waves
little darlin' one
Warm wind caress her
her lover it seems
Oh Annie
dreamboat Annie
my little ship of dreams
Going down into the city sidewalk
alone in the crowd
No one knows the lonely one
whose head's in the clouds
Sad faces pained over
with those magazine smiles
heading out to somewhere
won't be back
for awhile.

Barracuda LITTLE QUEEN
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, Roger Fisher
So this ain't the end - I saw you again today
Had to turn my heart away
You smiled like the Sun - kisses for everyone
and tales - it never fails!
You lying so low in the weeds
Bet you gonna ambush me
You'd have me down on my knees
Wouldn't you, Barracuda?
Back over Time when we were all trying for free
Met up with porpoise and me
No right no wrong you're selling a Song - a name
whisper game.
If the real thing don't do the trick
You better make up something quick
You gonna burn it out to the wick
aren't you, Barracuda?
"Sell me sell you" the porpoise said
Dive down deep to save my head
You...I think you got the blues too.
All that night and all the next
Swam without looking back
Made for the western pools - silly fools!
Love Alive LITTLE QUEEN
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, Roger Fisher
The Sky was dark this morning
when I raised my head
I stood at the window - darkness was my bane
Suddenly a sunbeam arch
thrilled me to my weary heart
It was the prettiest thing I'd ever seen
I knew I had to keep my Love
Keep my Love alive
Keep my Love - Keep my Love live
Baby I want you to roll me
Hold me in your Love
No more habits, promises and jive
Ever since I was a baby girl
wanted one thing most in the world
it was to Keep My Love - Keep My Love alive
I want to keep my Love - keep my Love alive
keep my Love - keep my love alive
You're up there under the spotlight
Your silver trophy shines
With all you got, my lord! You must get high
You need a whole lot more than money
You need more than to survive
You need to keep your Love
Keep your Love alive
Sylvan Song LITTLE QUEEN
Nancy Wilson, Roger Fisher
Dream of the Archer LITTLE QUEEN
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, Roger Fisher
Wayfaring warrior Soul - still wild
the archer stands
Arrow measured to the goal - sing of
strong and living man
In his mind there is a wision wand'ring
through the forest town
Telling of riches only given if through the woods
the way if found
Crying "ah! Beautiful dancers...wake up
from your sleep!
Ahhh gentle romancers...drink of Love so sweet!"
Treasure glowing in their eyes - Forest deepens
dark their dream
"Keep to the pathway" he advise "the woods are
more than they seem"
"Heed you now the apparition bending never ending
sounds
Calling you into her mystery - are your eyes
not sparking now?"
Sighing "ahh! Take you no warning - make no
foolish fight
Ahh, think not of morning - lie here
through the Night!"
"Beauty take us!" they call "In my arms!"
they hear her say
Silken web falls - mist illusion rips away
"Helpless! Helpless!" now they scream
Helpless on the path he stands
and awakens from his dram singing string
beneath his hand
Gentle archer ages old - release the aim
free the goal
Roll your arrow to my Soul - release the aim
free the goal
Kick It Out LITTLE QUEEN
Ann Wilson
Out of the street - get on home
tail shaking filly running on her own
they say she got loose on the night she was born
cranking it up in a school zone
"Kick it out - Kick it out," she said
"kick out your motor and drive
while you're still alive - kick it out!"
Sitting in a bar in a seaside town
Sweet little love getting high getting down
Sailors see her running along the beach
laugh and jump out of reach
Wild music blowing in her mane
she needs a bareback rider won't give her no pain
a hard racy game of give and take
leaves them dazed - half crazed - in her wake
"Kick it out - Kick it out," she said
"kick out your motor and drive
while you're still alive - kick it out!"
Little Queen LITTLE QUEEN
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, Roger Fisher, Steve Fossen, Howard Leese, Michael Derosier
You'd rather have wine than gin
Only the finest by your skin
Always running after Time - catching your fancy
with rhyme
Shine on the front page again
Hot on the presses today - little queen
Making your passion play - little queen
Nobody knows your melancholy mind -
Little queen
Away from the sellers, the papers said
Your crown was tight and heavy on your head
Still you danced and you sang - all night
the telephone rang
Music kept on playing from your pen.
Hot on the presses today - little queen
Making your passion play - little queen
Nobody knows your melancholy mind -
Little queen
Raining Raining - he knows your Soul ain't free
Raining Raining - he feels you little queen
Slipping away with your gypsy band
Hot on your Music and playing a winning hand
He was standing in the line, thinking how you
moved his mind
Feeling like he held you in his hand
Treat me Well LITTLE QUEEN
Nancy Wilson
Well I have lost some Time but I have won
and if you make it through
You know you've just begun
The winter cold is coming
and the Fire will soon be burning
So will you treat me well
Oh will you treat me well?
And I am asking will you save a place for me
To rest beside your heart
and feel I'm free
Now what good does feeling strong do
When I am here without you?
So will you treat me well
Oh well - will you treat me well?
Say Hello LITTLE QUEEN
Ann Wilson, Nancy WIlson, Roger Fisher
I'd like to know when you will say hello
When will it be I'd like to see you know
When will you change your mind and say hello?
Something is sending all sensations high
Someone is calling clearly to you now
Look for the one who will not say good-bye
Say Hello
Say Hello
Say Hello to all your secret light inside
Build up your Fire, take a ride I know
there'll be a night when you won't want to hide
Say Hello
Say Hello
Cry to Me LITTLE QUEEN
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson
Poor little dreamer
Stand inside the door
You can't find the easy rhymes
of times you had before
It hurts my heart so bad
seeing you sigh and shake
Broken down so low - so sad
I can't let you break
Cry to me - Cry to me
You better no hide it
Let it come - let it bleed
I ain't laughing - reach in and get it
and set it free
Cry to me - Cry to me
The glass is empty and the wine
is bitter on your tongue
People don't seem wild and fine
like when you were young
You're lonesome over a stormy Ocean
Lost in the rain and win
We can clear these clouds away
and feel the Sun again
Go on Cry LITTLE QUEEN
Ann WIlson, Nancy Wilson, Roger Fisher
Cook With Fire DOG AND BUTTERFLY (DOG)
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, Roger Fisher, S. Ennis, Howard Leese
Hot night wind is mine I know
gust of love ain't no liar
steamed up
blown out
stoked from below
ready to cook with fire
Cattin' around to catch you man
she butters you up to buy her
darling she's just a flash
in the pan
don't you know you've got
to cook with fire?
talking 'bout kicking the
role thing -
I want to give you the whole thing
She gonna burn you
she gonna make you a fool
but it'll learn you
way way better than school
that I got a soul that's
got a spark
I have a real hot wire
you got a hungry flame
in the dark
we gonna cook with fire
High Time DOG AND BUTTERFLY (DOG)
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, S. Ennis
Inside out again
I had to spread it
a little thin
I work and work and try

Don't we feel fine tonight

Hijinx DOG AND BUTTERFLY (DOG)
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, S. Ennis
I just found out
it's been too long
but now the word is out
The time before they took us
hook and punker
Jive Alive lines -
they were funk
Hijinx
Hijinx
Hijinx
Tonight
we all know better
but we just might
pulling it off
took some big time scheming
fast tap dance -
out feet were steaming
Hijinx
Hijinx
Hijinx
You never know
behind the lines
who's going to show
scandal high buzzing through
the mayhem
word we heard -
it might be them
Hijinx
Hijinx
Who's Who?
Who's Who?
Straight On DOG AND BUTTERFLY (DOG)
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, S. Ennis
Quite some time
I been sitting it out
didn't take no chances
a prisoner of doubt
Know down the wailing wall
ain't no sin
I got the feel of fortune
deal me in
Coming straight on for you
you made my mind
now I'm strong
now I'm coming through
straight on
straight on for you
now I know
I got to play my hand
what the winner don't know
a gambler understands
my heart
keeps playing it through
with you my friend
I'll take my chances
on you
again and again
Dog & Butterfly DOG AND BUTTERFLY (BUTTERFLY)
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, S. Ennis
There I was with the old man
stranded again - so off I'd ran
young world crashing around me
no possibilities of getting
what I need
he looked at me and smiled,
and said "no no no no child.
See the dog and butterfly.
Up in the air he like to fly.
Dog and butterfly...
below she long to try.
She roll back down
to the warm soft ground
laughing - she don't know why -
she don't know why
Dog and butterfly."
I stumbled upon your secret place
safe in the trees with tears
on your face
wrestling with your desires -
frozen strangers stealing your fires
the message hit my mind.
Only words that I could find.
'See the dog and butterfly...
up in the air he like to fly
Dog and butterfly...
below she has to try.
She roll back down
to the warm soft ground
laughing up to the sky -
up to the sky - Dog and butterfly.'
We're getting older
the world's geting colder
for the life of me
I don't know the reason why.
Maybe it's living
making us give in
hearts rolling in,
taken back on the tide
We're balanced together
like ocean upon the sky
Another night in
this strange town
moonlight holds me
light as down
voice of confusion
inside of me
begging to go back
to where I'm free
feels like I'm through
I know the old man's words
are true
Dog and Butterfly
up in the air he like to fly
Dog and butterfly
below he has to try
she roll back down
to the warm soft ground,
a little tear out her eye -
she had to try
Dog and butterfly.
Lighter Touch DOG AND BUTTERFLY (BUTTERFLY)
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, S. Ennis
Look at me
the answer is so clear
lying close before the fireplace
if only you could see
yourself this way my love
With the firelight
upon your face
ain't it strange how love
put things together
one like you...some one like me
but no one ever moved me
like the way you do
held against you love I am weak
Before us now
our dream of love is playing
a butterfly rising
from the flame
you and me
don't need no chains
since this feeling came to us
This touch of love
this lighter touch
A lighter touch
than hands of love
through time
reaching up to have
and to hold
You know I'll always stay
if I am free to go
You know I'll take your love
into my soul
Before us now
our dream of love is playing
a butterfly rising
from the flame
you and me
don't need no chains
since this feeling came to us
This touch of love
This lighter touch.
Nada One DOG AND BUTTERFLY (BUTTERFLY)
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, S. Ennis
Fire-eye flashing bright
Come again
into my dream tonight
don't fade away
when the morning comes
fading in the sun
Nada One
Nada One
Moonshine silver in your eye
shown on my midnight blues
from the sky
painted the night with love
till the burning sun
see the colors run
Nada One
Nada One
Morning comes down on me
wandering through
the endless street
nobody seein' where I've been
nobody feels what I've done
Nada One
Look inside I find
your song flows
around my mind
you are as real as I feel
you are the moon in my sun
Nada One
Nada One
Mistral Wind DOG AND BUTTERFLY (BUTTERFLY)
Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, S. Ennis, Roger Fisher
No wind when I took the watch
my ship was still and waiting.
I lay on that mirrored sky
a restless sailor...waiting.
I closed my eyes
said the words of will
for the gentle breathing
that moves the seas
make my sails fill.
Whisper waves cloud the glass
awake at last like a lover.
It rushed around me
talking sweet
"roll over...roll over
roll over"
and in my ear he blew his name
it sound so strange
but I heard it plain
Mistral wind.
I have always held the wheel
but I let that wind
steal my power
Let it spin me around
lose my course
nights run by like hours.
It showed me the way
to the deepest mountain
too high too beautiful to be
Mistral wind.
All the hours on the watch
I wait for that breeze
to move me
and blow me back
to that place
magic space all through me
and I sigh your name
across the empty water
you made a crazy dreamer
out of me
Mistral wind.
