listen  "Ain't Wastin' Good Whiskey On You" by Trick Pony (Wally Wilson/Buck Moore)

1st Verse

Well, it's Friday night at the Farmer's Daughter
But I'm the only one here drinkin' bottled water
You left me to drown my broken heart
But this one I'll get over
Stone cold sober

Chorus

(Oh, I think we need a little help from our friends)
('Cause) I don't need Jose
Believe me, honey, I'm okay
A Jack Daniels or a Jim Beam
Ain't gonna pull me through
(And) you wasted my time
My heart and my mind, too
I ain't wastin' good whiskey on you (heh heh) (ah ha)
(No oh, I ain't wastin' good whiskey on you, ah ee ah)

2nd Verse

And I'll admit we've lived some on the wild side
We dug our heels in deep and had a wild ride
Oh oh, but one good shot of you was all I needed
So don't set 'em up, Joe
Ah, you know, I'll stick to H2O

(Chorus Out)



listen  "Just What I Do" by Trick Pony (Ira Dean/Keith Burns)

Tease

It's just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
Just what I do when I can't get no lovin'

Spoken

Hit it
One, two, three, four

1st Verse

Jesse James was an outlaw man
He was always breakin' the law
Six guns firin' from both his hands
Fastest you ever saw
Did he do it for the money
Or was it for the fame
Finally somebody asked him, Jesse
Why you wanna rob them trains
And Jesse said

1st Chorus

It's just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
Just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
I'm the meanest hombre you ever saw
'Cause lately I ain't gettin' no lovin' at all
It's just what I do
It's just what I do

2nd Verse

Well, Orville Wright set his sights
High up in the air
And him and Wilbur worked day and night
He didn't seem to care
Well, the town folk said if you were meant to fly
God would have given you wings
What makes you want to spend all your time
Buildin' that flyin' machine
And Orville said

2nd Chorus

It's just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
Just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
I'm the first flight boy you ever saw
'Cause lately I ain't gettin' no lovin' at all
It's just what I do
It's just what I do, oh yeah

Bridge

Well, Picasso painted them pictures
There was beauty in every stroke
When asked about his motivation
He said, I think it's 'bout time you should know, yeah

3rd Chorus

It's just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
Just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
I'm the workin'est painter that you ever saw
'Cause lately I ain't gettin' no lovin' at all
It's just what I do
It's just what I do
It's just what I do, here we go
It's just what I do when I can't get no lovin'



video  "On A Night Like This" by Trick Pony (Karen Staley/Doug Kahan)

1st Verse

Spoken

Now, when I was a young girl
My Dad warned me about the opposite sex
He'd say, yeah, that's just what you need
Some crazy boy with wild ideas
You know what always happens next

1st Pre-Chorus

I tried to heed his advice
But now I'm thinkin' it sounds kinda nice

Chorus

It's just what I need on a night like this
A long walk in the dark, someone I can't resist
A little rendezvous, a little mystery
Now when I look at you, I think that's just what I need

2nd Verse

Spoken

Now, my mama told me in this dog-eat-dog world
Baby, you gotta work harder than a man
And, she'd say, yeah, that's just what you need
Some romance book Romeo calling you at work
And messin' up your plans

2nd Pre-Chorus

But, night falls, I slow down
I start dreamin' that you're comin' around

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

Moonlight, sweet bliss
Melting with ev'ry kiss
Dancin' real slow
When you hold me close I know

(Repeat Chorus)

Tag

Just what I need
Yeah, that's just what I need
Yeah
