Couldn't Stand The Weather (S.R. Vaughan - ASCAP)

Video: Pride And Joy, SRV Box Set

Runnin' through this business of life
Raisin' sand if I'm needed to.
Ain't so funny when things ain't feelin' right.
Then daddy's hand helps to see me through.
Sweet as sugar, love won't wash away.
Rain or shine, it's always here to stay.
All these years you and I've spent together.
All this, we just couldn't stand the weather.

Like a train that stops at every station,
We all deal with trials and tribulations.
Fear hangs the fellow that ties up his years.
Entangled in yellow and cries all his tears.
Changes come before we can grow.
Learn to see them before we're too old.
Don't just take me for tryin' to be heavy.
Understand, it's time to get ready for the storm.

The Things (That) I Used To Do (E. Jones - ASCAP)
Audio: Couldn't Stand The Weather, Live at Carnegie Hall, SRV box set

The things that I used to do, Lord I won't do no more
The things that I used to do, Lord I won't do no more
I used to sit and hold you hand, darlin'
And cry, baby do not go

I used to search all night for you darlin'
Lord, and my search would always end in vain
I used to search all night for you darlin'
Lord, and my search would always end in vain
But I knew all the time darlin'
That you was hiding out with your other man

I'm gonna send you back to your momma darlin'
Lord, and I'm going back to my family too
I'm gonna send you back your momma darlin'
Lord, and I'm going back to my family too
Nothing I can do to please you darlin'
I just can't get along with you

Well, I'm standing next to a mountain, chop it down with the edge of my hand
Well, I'm standing next to a mountain, chop it down with the edge of my hand
Pick up all the pieces, make an island, might even raise a little sand

'Cause I'm a voodoo chile, Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile

I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time
Give it right back to you one of these days
I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time
Give it right back to you the rest of my days

I won't see you again in this world, see you in the next one
Don't be late, don't be late

'Cause I'm a voodoo chile yeah, Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile

Once was a sweet thang baby, held our love in our hands
Now I reach to kiss your lips, the touch don't mean a thing
And that's a cold shot baby, yeah that's a drag.
A cold shot baby, I let our love go bad

Remember the way that you loved me, do anything I say
Now I see you out somewhere, you won't give me the time of day
And that's a cold shot darlin', yeah that's a drag
That's a cold shot baby, we let our love go bad

I really meant I was sorry, for ever causin' you pain
You showed your appreciation, by walkin' out anyway
And that's a cold shot baby, yeah that's a drag
That's a cold shot baby, we let our love go bad

Don't let our true love run cold baby

Tin Pan Alley (aka The Roughest Place In Town) (R. Geddins - ASCAP)
Audio: Couldn't Stand The Weather, In The Beginning

Went down to Tin Pan Alley, see what was going on
Things was too hot down there, couldn't stay very long
Hey, hey, hey, hey, alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there, living for their whisky, wine, and gin

I heard a woman scream, yeah and I peeked through the door
Some cat was working on Annie with a, Lord, with a two-by-four!
Hey, hey, hey, hey, alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there, living for their whisky, wine, and gin
I heard a pistol shoot, yeah and it was a .44
Somebody killed a crap shooter cause he didn't shake, rattle, and roll
Hey, hey, hey, hey, alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there, killing for their whisky, wine, and gin

I saw a cop standing with his hand on his gun
Said 'This is a raid boys - nobody run'
Hey, hey, hey, alley's the roughest place I've ever been
Yeah, they took me away from tin pan alley
And took me right back to the pen

Like a queen bee's honey, you're as sweet as can be
I am the king baby, buzz with me
Dive into your hive, and into your life

Because the way we kiss just can't miss
Don't make me wait to feel your warm embrace
Each and every time that we get a chance
Come on little baby, let's make some romance

You know you really groove me baby when you move your hips
Shake it all around and change me pound for pound
I want you all the time just because
You know you really have giv'n me a buzz
