You know you don't love me Why don't you leave me alone? You know you don't love me You never come on home You're a cold blooded woman You've got a heart made of stone You know you don't want me Why don't you let me go? You know you don't want me Why don't you tell me so? You're a cold blooded woman You've got a heart made of stone Crying gets you trouble Lying gets you double Trying to do the best that you can Gets you nothing at all Persona non gratis The problem with that is You won't be satisfied Till you see me crawl You know you don't need me Why keep me hanging on? You know you don't need me But you're just bad to the bone You're a cold blooded woman You've got a heart made of stone

We were all so young, not turned seventeen When we started on those Reyrolle days Bound till twenty one and we’d not be free Spent those precious years in a shallow place But I was just a kid, how could I ever know What might lie in store along the way? Much too immature to ever realise I’d come to hunger for those Reyrolle days They stole the dreams from you, took the best of times As we stumbled through those Reyrolle days. Taught us what to do, tried to change our minds From a dazzling view to an empty space But we were shining lights, we were young at heart Not yet ready for those factory ways So we spread our wings and we flew apart Never more to live those Reyrolle days I’m much older now and so wide awake As I look back on those Reyrolle days I’ve won through somehow from some bad mistakes And the tears have dried upon my face And though at last it seems that what I have is real All my hopes were lost without a trace But I still have dreams and I long to feel The way I felt back in those Reyrolle days

Well, I’ve lived my life like a rolling stone By myself and on my own Travelling like my feet don't touch the ground But I've let some people get close to me Closer than they ought to be And all they ever seemed to do was let me down Lovers make you cry Lovers always break your heart Hold you like they'll never let you go Then they tell a lie Then they tear your world apart Better if you just keep on moving down the road Well, I've heard them say what I want to hear When all my troubles disappear And make me feel like I'm the only one And yesterday's old broken schemes Were turning into hopes and dreams And then tomorrow all my chances gone Lovers make you cry Lovers always break your heart Hold you like they'll never let you go Then they tell a lie Then they tear your world apart Better if you just keep on moving down the road

Remember 04:18
Remember when life was easy And all we wanted was free Remember when nothing could stop us From being what we wanted to be Remember when time meant nothing And love was only a game You’d know every face in a crowd But never recall any name Remember when all that we needed Was everything that we had Not caring who thought you good Not caring who thought you were bad Remember you’d wake in the morning All ready to take on the day And never let anyone near you To stop you or stand in your way Tell me you understand Why it feels the way that it does Tell me it’s not too late To make it the way that it was When all that you had around you Was all that you wanted to see Tell me you still remember And still believe in me

You got no gears, Woody, got no throttle Cos the heat of the hand Takes the cold off the bottle You lose one game and it don't make sense So you put it all down to experience And you play out Dreams in the restaurants And the Devil is there doin’ what he wants But the moon is high and the mood is mellow The elephant's white and the van is yellow Well, I guess you’ve all seen my face before I've travelled this world from shore to shore Been on TV, been on the screen, been on the radio I'm a real old timer who's able and willin' I'm the Easy Rider, I'm Mr. Bob Dylan I'm a Right Insider who knows Leonard Cohen And I'm one of the Rollin' Stones I'm a dream world rambler An astral plane, eighth-time traveller Cryin' in the rain sayin' tears of laughter Just drenched me to the bone I'm a daytime gambler Who never, ever had a life of his own You got no gears, Woody, got no throttle Cos the heat of the hand Takes the cold off the bottle You lose one game and it don't make sense So you put it all down to experience And you play out Dreams in the restaurants And the Devil is there doin’ what he wants But the moon is high and the mood is mellow The elephant's white and the van is yellow I was locked in jail down in Birmingham A victim of life, that's what I am I got shot in the back out in Vietnam And was left to die alone I'm the Great Train Robber who's never been caught I'm a nuclear bomber, gonna blow you all I'm Edward Heath, the astronaut Headin' on his way back home I'm a real-life fantasy toucher A lonely, drownin' straw-clutcher I'm the Mad Movie watcher Livin' his life alone I'm a dream-far-too-mucher Who never, ever had a life of his own

So you tell me it's over now It's all over and done Can't believe you could smile like that Like a game that you've won But it's time you were moving on If I'm not what you want Just turn around and walk out the door And you're free Don't you worry about me And you find it so easy You just turn out the light I'll be gone from your memory Like a dream in the night But the there's no point in holding on When the feeling is gone If you're looking for someone That I'll never be Don't you worry about me

Don’t like this modern way of living Brings trouble every day No matter which way that you turn now Always someone getting in your way The Taxman sent me a letter Told me that I owe him a lot How are you expected to do it Paying what you haven’t got? I asked my Financial Advisor He said “Tell ‘im to f*** off!” Sounds like good advice No good trying to be nice Woke up early this morning Must have been half past four Got up and looked out the window Landlord hammering on my door Shouting that he wanted his money Rent’s way overdue Turned to my woman in bed, now Asked her “What we gonna do?” She just yawned me an answer She said “Tell ‘im to f*** off!” Sounds like good advice No good trying to be nice The Landlord called in the Bailiff And the Police are standing by They’re gonna take all that I’ve got now Gonna hang me out high and dry Won’t seem to listen to reason Won’t see my point of view Thought I’d better ring up my Lawyer Ask him what I ought to do He said “If you want my opinion You should tell ‘im to f*** off!” Sounds like good advice No good trying to be nice

Well, I just don't believe it Just look at what you've done You've put me in the shadows And you’ve painted out the sun When I was just out a-walking Now you've got me on the run You tell me that I'm crazy You tell me that I'm mad You tell me that I'm lazy You tell me that I'm bad Well, if I'm not what you wanted I think that you'd be better on your own Cos if you can take me or you can leave me Then you can take me or you can leave me alone Well, maybe I'm not used to coming first I might not be the best there is But I know I'm not the worst When all I do is love you And all it does is hurt I can't do the right thing When I'm always doing wrong If we can't agree on nothing How we gonna get along? It’s time you took take another road If you don't like the way it's goin' Cos if you can take me or you can leave me Then you can take me or you can leave me alone I might not be good looking I might not be so cute I might not come to meet you In a thousand dollar suit But when I tell you something Then you know that it's the truth I want to make you happy Don't want you being sad I want to give you everything I know you've never had But no matter how you squeeze it You can't get blood out of a stone So if you can take me or you can leave me Then you can take me or you can leave me alone

There's trouble in Boomtown Things are not going well There's a stranger in Paradise And he's making it Hell Doesn't dance to the music Doesn't join in the sin He just waits outside the city gates But he never comes in We don't know where he comes from We don't know who he is But he laughs at the people Their red blood Their blue eyes Their black hearts And their empty promises There's a rumour in Boomtown Yes, I've heard people talk They say there's gonna be An eclipse of the sun Yes it's gonna get dark And then there's the stranger That we don't understand He goes down to the riverside And he washes his hands We don't know where he comes from We don't know who he is But he laughs at the people Their red blood Their blue eyes Their black hearts And their empty promises Things are different in Boomtown Seemed to change overnight Seems as soon as the city grew dark Everyone saw the light. There's no sign of the stranger It's like he didn't exist And though he'll not be forgotten I know he'll never be missed We don't know where he comes from We don't know who he is But he laughs at the people Their red blood Their blue eyes Their black hearts And their empty promises

Now you know that losers can never win You don't want to walk that road again Standing on the outside, looking in Up against the bar Never doing right, always going wrong Waited for the light but it never shone Always had to fight just to get along But didn't get too far Everyone's a star Everyone's a star Everybody's somebody's guiding light No matter who you are Feeling all alone when you're in a crowd Talking to yourself as you think aloud Wanna do some good just to make them proud So you try to win their war Flying in a straight line, looking back Trying to get the best out of what you lack Dying to put your real life back on track And still you bear the scar Everyone's a star Everyone's a star Everybody's somebody's guiding light No matter who you are Will you ever find what you're looking for? You can't keep your mind on it anymore If you weren't so blind then you'd know for sure But life is so bizarre Thinking being nobody is a crime Gonna be a somebody down the line Yeh, you'll be a big shot when it's time So tell them au revoir Everyone's a star Everyone's a star Everybody's somebody's guiding light No matter who you are
11.
You're feeling lonely tonight Your heart is in your shoes Nothing ever turns out right You always seem to lose Feeling sorry for yourself You got the blues You're feeling lonely tonight Can't make it on your own Scared to turn out the light Don’t want to be alone How can someone who looks like an angel Have a heart made of stone?

Dream On 03:43
Remember how we felt back then, just one desire Searching for a dream to set the world on fire Never realising who we'd hurt along the way We'd just close our eyes and let the music play We've all done foolish things and been misunderstood But living with regrets does no one any good Dream on, think about what used to be Never mind what might have been Dream on, remember absent company Imagine that they're here again We’d fill the night with beating drums and loud guitars We weren’t going to stop until we reached the stars Never cared to listen to what others had to say We'd just close our eyes and let the music play But like all things before, we couldn’t make it last Now there’s no going back and we can’t change the past Dream on, think about what used to be Never mind what might have been Dream on, remember absent company Imagine that they're here again Billy called and he asked me to say what’s going on I said “I don’t know, I think the magic is all gone” Then he cried, he said “No, I just can’t believe that’s true Take away the dream from me and what else can I do?” Dream on, think about what used to be Never mind what might have been Dream on, remember absent company Imagine that they're here again

You’d have me downbeat and broken You’d have me be nothing at all You’d have me downbeat and broken You just wanna make me feel small But I’m through with all this talkin’ I’m walkin’ and I’m walkin’ out tall You’d have me downbeat and broken You’d have me get down on my knees You’d have me downbeat and broken Think that you can do what you please But I’m through with all this talkin’ I’m walkin’ free as the breeze Cos now I’ve come to realise That all you’ve done is wasted my time And the sooner I get outa here The sooner you’ll be out of my mind You’d have me downbeat and broken Downbeat, down on my knees You’d have me downbeat and broken Downbeat, do what you please But I’m through with all this talkin’ I’m walkin’ free as the breeze
14.
You know you drive me crazy The way you carry on You tell me that I'm lazy You treat me like a dog You never give me nothing You never show me love But when it comes to trouble You just can't get enough You're a mean hearted woman I'm only doing the best I can You're a mean hearted woman You need a cold blooded man

about

Venues such as the Mayfair Ballroom, Newcastle City Hall, Sunderland Locarno (Mecca) and Top Rank Suite have become legendary in the rock history of North East England. Almost every major band played there at some point in their careers. On the bill supporting them would be Juice. We had almost become the 'resident band’ for these occasions. The tracks on this album were recorded live at these historic North East venues way back in the early 1970's. Considering the technology available at the time, this was not an easy task for a struggling young band with very limited resources. However, we are thankful we made the effort and are now able to transport you back to those great days and hear a band that was there, appearing at some amazing events with many famous names that have since become world renowned and celebrated in rock legend.
