1. Lowdown
LOWDOWN
(B. Scaggs / D. Paich)
"Silk Degrees"
Baby's into runnin' round
Hangin' with the crowd
Puttin' your business in the street
Talking out loud
Sayin' you bought her this and that
And how much you done spent
I swear she must believe it's all heaven sent
Hey boy. you better bring the chick around
To the sad sad truth
The dirty lowdown
Oooh oooh, I wonder wonder wonder wonder who
Taught her how to talk like that
Oooh oooh.. I wonder wonder wonder wonder who
Gave her that big idea
Nothing you can't handle
Nothing you ain't got
Put your money on the table
And drive it off the lot
Turn on that old lovelight
Turn a "maybe" to a "yes"
Same old schoolboy game
Got you into this mess
Hey son, better get on back to town
Face the sad old truth
The dirty lowdown
Oooh oooh, I wonder wonder wonder wonder who
Put those ideas in your head
Oooh, oooh I wonder wonder wonder wonder who
Come on back down to earth, son
Dig the low, low, low, low lowdown
You ain't got to be so bad-
Got to be so cold
This dog-eat-dog existence sure is getting' old
Got to have a Jones for this- Jones for that
This running with the Joneses, boy
Just ain't where it's at
You gonna come back around
To the sad, sad truth... the dirty lowdown
Oooh, oooh, I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who
Got you thinkin' like that boy
Oooh, oooh I wonder, wonder, wonder who
I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who
Said I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who
Oh, look out for that lowdown
That dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty lowdown
I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who
Whoo... hooo
I wonder who got you thinking like that

2. You Make It So Hard (To Say No)
YOU MAKE IT SO HARD (To Say No)
(B. Scaggs)
"Slow Dancer"
I have had my eyes on you
Oh, since the day
I learned to laugh at myself
Caught you laughing too
Then you went your way
Oh, and I went mine
It's strange that in another place
That joke should hit me in my face
But you, oh, you make it so hard, baby
To say no, no, no
You, yes, you baby
Make it so hard to say no, no, no, no
All that glitters is not gold
Just like good jokes get old
That spark that makes you think of me
Don't make things like they used to be
You might say that I have changed
It's just that things are rearranged
And as I once looked after you
Now it's your turn to see me through
'Cause you, oh baby you make it so hard, girl
To say hey no, no, no, no
You, oh baby, you make it soooo hard, to say no, no, no, no
You know I've tried to get you out of my mind
But now I'm to the point I find
I just can't leave and not have kissed you
You know I could never resist you
'Cause you, oh you make it so hard
To say hey no, no, no, no
You, oh, youre making it no
Baby, to say no, no, no, no

3. Miss Sun
MISS SUN
(D. Paich)
Been thinkin' 'bout you all night
Guess you got me in your spell
Well
But I think that I'll be all right
Even if I don't get well
Hey Miss Sun
What could I say
I tried to hold you
But the moon got in the way
It won't be long before the morning
Has you back in my arms
I can still remember
What you told me with your eyes, eyes
One kiss
Now it's down to this
Guess it's time you realize
Hey Miss Sun
What could I say
I tried to hold you
But the moon got in the way
It won't be long before the morning
Has you back in my arms
Has you back in my arms
Hey Miss Sun
What could I say
I tried to hold you
But the moon got in the way
It won't be long before the morning
Has you back in my arms
In my arms...oooh hooo
Hey Miss Sun
What could I say
I tried to hold you
But the moon got in my way
It won't be long before the morning
Has you back in my arms
One kiss, is what I need
One kiss, give it to me
It won't be long until the morning
It won't be long until the morning
Has you back on my arms
One kiss
I realize
One kiss
I can see it in your eyes
Oh, it won't be long
Until the morning has you back in my arms

4. Lido Shuffle
LIDO SHUFFLE
(Boz Scaggs / David Paich)
"Silk Degrees"
Lido missed the boat that day
He left the shack
But that was all he missed
And he ain't coming back
At a tombstone bar
In a juke joint car
He made a stop
Just long enough to grab a handle off the top
Next stop Chi-town
Lido put the money down
Let 'em roll
He said one more job oughta get it
One last shot 'fore we quit it
One for the road
Lido.. whoa ooh ooh ooh
He's for the money
He's for the show
Lido's waitin' for the go
Lido... whoa ooh ooh ooh
He said one more job oughta get it
One last shot 'fore we quit it
One more for the road
Lido be runnin'
Havin' great big fun
Until he got the note
Sayin' "Tow the line or blow it"
And that was all she wrote
He'll be makin' like a beeline
Headin' for the border line
Goin' for broke
Sayin' one more hit oughta do it
This joint aint nothin' to it
One more for the road
Lido... whoa ooh ooh ooh
He's for the money
He's for the show
Lido's waiting for the go
Lido... whoa ooh ooh ooh
One more job ought to get it
One last shot then we quit it
One more for the road
Lido... whoa ooh ooh ooh
He's for the money
He's for the show
Lido's a waitin' for the go
Lido... whoa ooh ooh ooh

5. We're All Alone
WE'RE ALL ALONE
(Boz Scaggs)
"Silk Degrees"
Outside the rain begins
And it may never end
So cry no more, on the shore, a dream
Will take us out to sea
Forever more, forever more
Close your eyes, amie
And you can be with me
'Neath the waves, through the caves, of hours -
Long forgotten now
We're all alone, we're all alone
Close the window, calm the light
And it will be alright
No need to bother now
Let it out, let it all begin
Learn how to pretend
Once a story's told
It can't help but grow old
Roses do, lovers too
So cast your seasons to the wind
And hold me dear, oh hold me dear
Close the window, calm the light
And it will be alright
No need to bother now
Let it out, let it all begin
All's forgotten now
We're all alone, all alone
Close the window, calm the light
And it will be alright
No need to bother now
Let it out, let it all begin
Throw it to the wind, my love
Hold me dear
All's forgotten now, my love
We're all alone

6. Breakdown Dead Ahead
BREAKDOWN DEAD AHEAD
(B. Scaggs / D. Foster)
"Middle Man"
I call ya
You ain't in
What's this cold reaction?
Where have you been?
Ooh baby
Layin' it on the line
If this is last call and you say that's all...
You can take, it's fine
I'm sorry but
It don't make sense
You'd be a fool to just run out on first offense
Ooh baby play it smart
Before you go south with your big mouth
Better check your heart
Danger- there's a breakdown dead ahead
Maybe you're in way above your head
I may burn, might upset you
But you know I'd never let you down
I told ya
No more lyin'
No more tears a fallin'
Stop your cryin'
Ooh baby
I'm your man
Before you go back to your sidetrack
Baby understand
Danger- there's a breakdown dead ahead
And just maybe you're in way above your head
I may burn, might upset you
But you know I'd never let you down
No no no
No no no no
No no no no no no no
Danger there's a breakdown dead ahead
And just maybe you're in way above your head
I may burn, might upset you
But you know I'd never let you down
No no no
Danger- there's a breakdown dead ahead
And just maybe you're in way above your head
I may burn, might upset you
But you know I'll never let you down down down down
No no no

7. Look What You've Done To Me
LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO ME
(B. Scaggs / D. Foster)
"Urban Cowboy" Soundtrack
Hope they never end this song
This could take us all night long
I looked at the moon and I felt blue
Then I looked again and I saw you
Eyes like fire in the night
Bridges burning with their light
Now I'll have to spend the whole night through
And honey, yes, I'll have to spend it all on you
Love, look what you've done to me
Never thought I'd fall again so easily
Oh love, you wouldn't lie to me
Leaving me to feel this way
They might fade and turn to stone
Let's get crazy all alone
Hold me closer than you'd ever dare
Close your eyes and I'll be there
And after all is said and done
After all, you are the one
Take me up your stair and through the door
Take me where we don't care any more
Love, look what you've done to me
Never thought I'd fall again so easily
Oh love, you wouldn't lie to me, would you
Leading me to feel this way
Love, look what you've done to me
Never thought I'd fall again so easily
Oh, love, you wouldn't lie to me
Leaving me to feel this way

(B. Scaggs/D. Foster/D. Lasley)
"Middle Man"

Seems so long, you've been gone
I've been singing such a sad, sad song
I'm glad I found you
Glad my world's around you
Dinah, I've been... so lonely for you
Never knew how I cared for you
Glad you're back (let me)
Take you back in my arms

Love you so

Way down slow
My Dinah Flo
Love you more each day
I'll be long, I'll be true
But I can't say what Dinah might do
I'm glad she's back
Take her back in my arms

10. You Can Have Me Anytime
YOU CAN HAVE ME ANYTIME
(B. Scaggs / D. Foster)
"Middle Man"
Here we are
In a room full of strangers
And an open door
Here we are
Away from all dangers
But that open door
Is calling out again
Acting like a friend
Who wants to know
If you might come away
I wonder what you'll say
You wander out again
On wings of the night
Once again you'll take flight
And I don't hear your voice any more
Tonight's dream will end
But I'll stay long after then
And you can have me any time
Here we are
Alone in the shadows
Of our lonely room
Here we are
We all have those very lonely rooms
Like a faithless child
Frightened of the wild
He runs and hides
To keep from being still
We run around until
We lose ourselves again
On wings of the night
Once again you'll take flight
And I don't hear your voice any more
Tonight's dream will end
But I'll stay long after then
And you can have me any time
Tonight's dream will end
But I'll stay long after then
And you can have me any time

1. What Can I Say
WHAT CAN I SAY
(B. Scaggs / D. Paich)
"Silk Degrees"
What can I say... what can I do
Three a.m. it's me again and wouldn´t you know
Things would have to end this way
I did my best, the perfect guest, knew when to go
Perfect you knew when to stay
Come on, tell me that you´re lonely, dear
I´ve been feeling down some too
After all this time now, ain´t it clear
I´ve been waiting just for you
What can I say
Oh to make you know baby
What can I do
Oooh show you that I care
What can I say
Got to have your number, baby
What can I do
Can´t you see the people just stop and stare?
Don't it make you wonder why?
I just happened to be standing there
Can't you see it in my eyes?
What can I say
Ooooh you got me acting like a fool, girl
What can I do
Oooh stop making like a little school girl
What can I say
Could be your lucky day, baby
What can I do
Oooh talk to me
Oooh talk to me girl
What can I say
Oh to make you know, baby
What can I do
Oooh to show you that I care
What can I say
Oooh I´m all down on my knees
Please please please
What can I say
Oooh what can I do

What can I say... what can I do
Three a.m. it's me again and wouldn´t you know
Things would have to end this way
I did my best, the perfect guest, knew when to go
Perfect you knew when to stay
Come on, tell me that you´re lonely, dear
I´ve been feeling down some too
After all this time now, ain´t it clear
I´ve been waiting just for you
What can I say
Oh to make you know baby
What can I do
Oooh show you that I care

4. Hard Times
HARD TIMES
(B. Scaggs)
"Down Two Then Left"
I am down in the sea of confusion
'Neath the waves of no recovery
Swept away by a distant voice calling
Ain't no use in trying to rescue me
I am falling
Back into your spell
Back into a cell of no return
No way to rescue me
I still see you
Reaching out to take your hold on me
Through a crack in the moon
I believed you
But I know this time there ain't no use
I am falling
Back into your spell
Back into a cell of no return
No way to rescue me
Falling
Back into your spell
Back into a cell of no return
No way to rescue me
I am falling
Back into your spell
Back into a cell of no return
No way to rescue me
Back into your spell
Back into a cell of no return
No way to rescue me

5. Slow Dancer
SLOW DANCER
(G. Daly / B. Scaggs)
"Slow Dancer"
I have never loved a lady
Never touched no silken knee
Macon baby, you drove me crazy
You were so easy to me
Lay me down in Georgia pine cones
Whisper to me through the trees
You're the one I always dream of
You're the only one I see
Whoa, slow dancer, sweet romancer
Shine your light on me
Slow dancer holds the answer
Only you can set me free
Never see your face in sunlight
Moonlight sends you straight to me
You never even got my name right
You were so easy to me
Whoa, slow dancer, sweet romancer
Shine your light on me
Slow dancer give me the answer
Only you can set me free
Baby, baby, baby
Sweet romancer
Shine your light on me
Slow dancer holds the answer

6. Harbor Lights
HARBOR LIGHTS
(Boz Scaggs)
"Silk Degrees"
Son of a Tokyo Rose
I was bound to wander from home
Stranger to whatever I'd awaken to
Spun the wheel
Took a shot in the dark
One way ticket and a runaway heart
A sailor's dream came true, the night I dreamed you
Through the neon doorways
Down the stony streets I fell
All hands high side, all eyes awreck, I followed
Sailing shadows, reds and blues
Curtains drawn, but I saw through
The window to your soul, and I found you
Whoa oh oh
The harbor lights of Venus shining through the breeze
That brings me back
To you, my love, to you, my love, to you, my love
My eyes must be betraying
But that lonesome jukebox playing
Something 'bout the harbor lights is calling me
Back to some Jamaican Bay
Doesn't seem so far away
Keep the change, but I'll repay these memories
Dawn came in this mornin'
Like some old junked-out melody
The words she spoke as we awoke
still haunt me
What you feel too
Won't reveal you
Let me steal you for my life
Whoah oh oh
The harbor lights of Venus shining through the breeze
That brings me back
To you, my love, to you, my love, to you, my love
Whoah oh oh
The harbor lights of Venus shining through the breeze
That brings me back.. oh to you, my love
To you, my love.. to you, my love

11. It's Over
IT'S OVER
(B. Scaggs / D. Paich)
"Silk Degrees"
Best of friends
Never part
Best of fools have love forever
From the bottom of his heart
So why pretend
This is the end
You have to find out for yourself
Go on ask somebody else
Why can't you just get it through your head
It's over, it's over now
Yes, you heard me clearly now I said
It's over, it's over now
I'm not really over you
You might say that
I can't take, I can't take it
Lord, I swear I just can't take it no more
(Go away) Go away
(Far away) So far away
It's too late to turn back now
And it don't matter anyhow
'Cause you were right
I'm to blame
Can't go on the same old way
Can't keep up the same old game
Why can't you just get it through your head
It's over, it's over now
Yes, you heard me clearly now I said
It's over, it's over now
I'm not really over you
You might say that
I can't take it, I can't take it
Lord, I swear I just can't take it no more
Why can't you just get it through your head
It's over, it's over now
Yes, you heard me clearly now I said
It's over, it's over now

13. Heart Of Mine
HEART OF MINE
(Bobby Caldwell/Jason Scheff/Dennis Matkosky)
"Other Roads"
One day, you may
Find true love that will last forever
And ever
Till then, you'll spend
A lifetime wishing one together
You never thought she'd say goodbye
And you'll never understand the reasons why
Heart of mine
How will you keep from dying?
Stop reminiscing-
"Who is she kissing?"
Heart of mine
Oh what's the use in trying?
No one can mend you now
Love plays cruel games
You can't believe she's found another... Lover
Does she miss me?
Sometimes you just can't help but wonder
No, you can't hold the hands of time
And you'll always be the one she left behind
Heart of mine
How will you keep from dying?
Stop reminiscing-
"Who is she kissing?"
Heart of mine
Oh what's the use in trying?
No one can mend you now
And you'll never understand the reasons why
Heart of mine
How will you keep from dying?
Stop reminiscing-
"Who is she kissing?"
Heart of mine
Oh what's the use in trying?
No one can mend you now
Oh heart of mine
Heart of mine
Heart of mine
