Baddest Blues
(Written by Beth Hart)
My love has come along
My dream's become a song
My days are bright and sunny
Funny why I’m so blue
The man is like a drug
Humiliating and I can’t get enough
Love and all its splendor
Has surrendered its every blow
Bad is the blues that I know
If this is love What was I thinking
If this is love What the hell am I gonna do
And that man Has got me sinking
To the bottom of the blue
It’s what I choose Guess that I lose
Love is the baddest blues
The joy vs the pain
No my joy it ain’t the same
So I’ll put it plain and simple
Just like front page news
Love is the baddest blues
Bang Bang Boom Boom
(Written by Beth Hart and Rune Westberg)
Road is wide Sky is black
Rattle snake Running down your back
Desert howls Liar's moon
Bang Bang Bang Boom Boom Boom Boom
I want your love I want your love
I want your poison In my cup
Morning sun Rising soon
Bang Bang Bang Boom Boom Boom Boom
Bang Bang In a ring of fire
Bang Bang My sweet desire
Bang Bang My love is true
Bang Bang I die for you
Bang Bang Bang Boom Boom Boom Boom
Count it down From 10 to 1
Crazy heart Lucky gun
We were born Bad blood and bones
You’re the sticks And I am the stones
I’ll be Bonnie You’ll be Clyde
Rock n roll suicide Meet you on the other side
Bullets made From silver spoons
I got em baby Just for you
Go ahead and make your move And do it soon
Better Man
(Written by Beth Hart and Monty Byrom)
He got me feeling so fine He taught the sun how to shine
He turns my water to wine He do it every time
Ain't nothing better than that I let him play with my cat
Got nothing on, but his hat Ain't nothing wrong with that
All that I want him to know That I want him to know Is that I love him so
He’s better than I ever had More than I can stand
I found me a Better man Who loves Better than Better than you ever can
Don’t want no animal Acting so out of control
I found me a Better man He grease my pan Better than you can can
He’s no complicated man He’s happy holding my hand
He likes to swim in my tub I like his rub'a'dub
He's never stolen my car Or tried to pawn my guitar
He doesn't flirt with my friends My money he don't spend
Love and happiness I have received
Love has surely been so Good to me
I finally found myself A piece of sky
Caught Out in the Rain
(Written by Beth Hart and James House)
Every time he walks out the front door
I wonder if he’s ever coming back
But I can’t help but love the taste of danger baby
And the howl and the wind and the rough of his hands
I got caught out in the rain
If I die I don’t care I’m in love
I’m in love I’m in love I’m in love with this man
I got caught out caught out caught out
In the rain
I heard him crying in his sleep last night
No man wants to be told that he’s been crying
When he wakes up I tell him it’s gonna be alright
But I know that he knows that I’m just lying
I heard he shot a man down in the street
And it tore his soul apart
Last night when he was making love to me
There was another woman in his heart
Caught up in his name
Caught up in his pain
Caught all of his shame
And it ain't nobody's business
Swing My Thing Back Around
(Written by Beth Hart)
Why have a song if you ain’t gonna sing
Make a move Do your thing
It don’t really matter if you’re out of tune
So enjoy yourself All afternoon
I’m putting my foot down
And swing my thing back around
And play my favorite tune ( do dew dee dup de dap de doo)
Why buy the shoes if you ain’t gonna dance
Free your mind Take a chance
What are you doing just hanging around
Shake a hip Go down town
I better sooner than later Pull by head out the sand
Stop lying in the gutter Sipping Whiskey with my Crackers and Spam
Why wear the ring if it ain’t gonna shine
Tell your man You’re worth the dime
And why have a heart if it ain’t gonna buzz
Kiss him hard And feel his love
I’m putting my foot down and swing my thing back a
I’m putting my foot down and switch this hip back a
And sing my own damn tune ( do dew dee dup de dwap de doo)
With You Everyday
(Written by Beth Hart, Juan Winans)
I guess your labor wasn’t in vain
To get out your way I did everything
But I’ve been falling in love with you everyday
It wasn’t easy I know
Some of those nights it probably seemed impossible
But I’ve been falling in love with you everyday
Every time the sun comes up
I turn back around
I‘m climbing all the walls that I built
To keep you out
And all the bridges you tried to burn
Have all fallen down It’s you and me now
Next to you I want to lie
On your shoulder when I need to cry
I’m so happy that you came
To ease the darkness and ease the pain
And I’ve been falling in love with you everyday
Thru the Window of My Mind
(Written by Beth Hart, Rune Westberg)
I could fly away
And leave it all behind
I could take a train
But I would rather fly
I could escape thru the window of mind
But I would never leave you behind
I’ve seen the place where the broken people hide
I wanna know love before I die
Open the window
I could steal a plane
The stars, the moon, the rain
I will make a change
I’d give anything
I’m waiting, I’m waiting
For something, for nothing
I’m ready, I’m ready now
Spirit of God
(Written by Beth Hart)
Springing like a chicken I wake up in the morning
Cooking up my bacon and bread
Jumping in the shower Got less than half an hour
To make it to the congregation
I’m going hip shaking Down the aisle
Breaking bread with my own special style
I got the spirit of God
Now the preacher’s going crazy He swears he’s gonna save me Knocking devils down on
the floor
My soul starts a jumping I know I’m feeling something
Choir’s givin' it up to the Lord
We’re going hip shaking Down the aisle
Every mother, brother, sister and child Got the spirt of God
We got the spirit of God
Ain’t nothing like a soul celebration To set your situation right
I’m going more than half way to heaven Destination straight to the light
I know I’m more than half way to heaven The lord
Got me the spirit of God
Now my mojo ain’t been working I’m broken but I'm learning
To get my strut back up on the street
People call me lazy Yeah just a little maybe Jivin' everyone that I meet
But I’m going hip shaking down the aisle Yeah I do it with my own special style
I got the spirit of God: I want to thank you Lord
I got the spirit of God: For giving me the word
I got the spirit of God: I want to thank you lord I got to thank you lord
I got the spirit of God: I want to thank the one
I got the spirit of God: Who gave his only son
I got the spirit of God: I want to thank you lord
There in Your Heart
(Written by Beth Hart)
I just stopped by to see your face
I heard you been out running and hiding all over the place
So you gone and you decided To give it all away to the church
You say you ain’t sick, But every little bit Of the living hurts
Wherever you go Whatever you do
I will be there Inside of you
There in your heart There in your heart
Wherever you go I will go too
The hours laid out like lightning Stretching far across the sky
You say You say It Must be a million years ago When I believed that I could fly
Maybe I’ll burn down the house Or build crosses from the wood
Maybe I’ll go to Africa And be lion king If only I could
I was there in the beginning When you took your first breath alone
I’ll be there in the ending When the world's desire leaves your bones
In all of the corners And all the wide open spaces in the dark
I’ll be there in your heart
I’ll be there in your heart
The Ugliest House on the Block
(Written by Beth Hart)
If it’s not one thing it’s another Flies buzzing around big as hawks
I’m not just screaming for my supper I live at the ugliest house on the block
So what So what
I’ve been trying to make a little money If you got the honey I got the pot
I’m tired a hearing that you’re so lonely I live in the ugliest house on the block
Get the hell off my lot Yeah Get the hell off my lot
Beating on a dead horse for filler I don’t go over well with the live stock
These are serious times there are serial killers Next to the ugliest house on the block
I heard that they hate my house a lot They say I ain’t gotta shot I know I ain’t gotta shot
Entertainments where its at Reality reruns on crack
My own dad could give a crap I’d wear his love if I had a hard hat
I would rob, but I hate the cops Sirens roar and guns go pop
And Rock n Rolls become Hip Hop OH well So what Oh hell Suck it up
I swear to God I’m not a sinner I know God likes me a lot
He has saved me in the river So I’ll stay in the ugliest house on the block
I’ll stay in this ugly house til I rot Be glad for what I got
Entertainment's where it's at Reality reruns on crack
My own dad could give a crap I’d wear his love if I had a hard hat
I would rob but I hate the cops Sirens roar and guns go pop
And Rock n Roll's become Hip Hop You can't be something that you're not
And when I go lay my head down I want a man to stay around
We'll live in this ugly house Oh well So what Oh hell This sucks
Everything Must Change
(Written by Beth Hart)
Everything has changed The sky don’t shine or rain
Stars don’t walk me home So I go this road alone
But everything will turn When the heroes feel the burn
And the outlaw speaks the truth I was braver in my youth
No I’m not the same , But everything must change
Everyone is gone The dogs don’t get along
Cracks run thru the wood Can’t live here no one could
But everyone will come With dreams and things they’ve won
Little women start to dance Broken men get a second chance
No one is the same , but everything must change
I just want to go I just want to go go outside and run
I just want to see I just wanna be
Before it’s all said and done I can’t wait no longer ……… longer longer
Where is all the love Round here we all look up
And the love runs ore the edge I just need a friend
Then everywhere there’s light When the dying start to fight
And the ashes blow away It’s the most beautiful day
When it’s time to say goodbye Sweet mother don’t you cry
There will be no more pain Cuz everything must change
