"The Unwritten Law" lyrics
"The Unwritten Law"
Listen to me
I've got a warning for you
You've got to learn to take more care
'Cause if you swim in dirty water
Be careful how you dry your hair
In a room within a room
In a hole within a hole
You've got to learn to share your secrets
Or you'll lose your soul
I've got the evidence
I know you broke the unwritten law
Another town, another one-night stand
You know you broke the law
It's so hard to hold back
When the fire is in your eyes
A silver dollar in my pocket
I don't like surprises
I've got your souvenir
Is that the price I've got to pay
It ain't been that long
Since the last charade
I've got the evidence
I know you broke the unwritten law
Another town, another one-night stand
You know you broke the law
I know you're guilty
But I'm carrying the blame
I took out much more than I put in
And I felt the pain
In a dirty little room
With nowhere left to hide
You told the truth with your eyes
But you lied inside
I've got the evidence
I know you broke the unwritten law
Another town, another one-night stand
You know you broke the law
I've got the evidence
I know you broke the unwritten law
Another town, another one-night stand
You know you broke the law

Gotthard - "Standing In The Light" Can you feel it it's again in the air
Hell's breaking' loose tonight
It don't matter where you're comin' from
If you're black or white
And we're rockin', rockin'
Against the time
No other reason to...
Jethro Tull - "Nothing Is Easy" Nothing is easy.
Though time gets you worrying
my friend, it's o.k.
Just take your life easy
and stop all that hurrying,
be happy my way.
When tension starts mounting
and you've lost count...
Montrose - "Bad Motor Scooter" If you get lonely on your daddy's farm
Just remember I don't live too far
And there's a red bridge that arcs the bay, yes
You'll be at my place in less than a day
Huh, so get on your bad motor...
Uriah Heep - "I'm Alive" How strange when you know the feeling that something ain't right
You're fooled by the need of being, you're blind to the light
Don't ask where the stranger leads you, he'll show you the way
Just go...
Ram Jam - "Turnpike" I was in love and I wasn't afraid
You were just still written I couldn't play
Then I wasn't so sure of my old day
What is the reason, you wouldn't say
Never returned to Boston
The place where my love...
