Here lyrics

Writers: Leo Sayer & Les Davidson

rambling 'round your city streets
I feel no earth beneath my feet
and I feel my life
is crumbling into, into the sea
but I can't swim
three thousand miles
so all I have is lonely nights
I'm an englishman
lost in the usa

and it's a long way back home
such a long way back home
and I'm wondering
where am I gonna go

on every corner of every avenuethe word's been passed all aroundbetter watch out, lock up your daughters'cause that bad frankie lee is back in townall the ladies fall for frankiesayin, frankie lee, how can it beof all the men here, you're the only onewho's got the key, to set us freeoh, frankie leenow there's a woman, in this neighborhoodwho's loving frankie in her mindbut in fear of bein' discove

Writer: Al Kooper

you were out there
and I thought that you were
for the asking
I've never been unfair
but I was looking for a love
that would be everlasting

three years of taking
anything that I could find
a one night stand -- you understand
wasn't what I had in mind
believe me that I lost control
I wanted you and that was
all that really mattered

Writers: Eugene Record

oh girl
I'd be in trouble if you left me now
'cos I don't know where
to look for love
I just don't know how
oh girl
how I depend on you
to give me love when I need it
right on time
you would always be there

all my friends call me a fool
they say
let the woman take care of you
so I
try to be hip and think like the crowd

Leo Sayer & Frank Farrell
have you seen the old men
that lean on the walls
of salvation halls
in the streets of your town
you can't have missed
the vagrant
he is the rubble
he is the trouble you want to remove
in the parks about sundown
he makes his bed
his shoes are a pillow for his head
have you seen the young men
that look so old
they'd rather have the cold dark lonely road

Writers: Leo Sayer & David Courtney

he says he doesn't care
to the girl with the painted hair
and staggers through the angry crowd
like it isn't there
feels like a wall of sound
as he crashes down
no one stops to look when he hits the ground

we're the nouveau rich
on a one way trip
living out on a razor's edge
just to get our kicks
we're gonna take a stand

Writers: Leo Sayer, Billy Livsey & Sergio Cuevas

though the world has changed
we're still the same
you know that I love you
though the world has changed
we're still the same
you know that I love you -- yeah

counting the months and the years
when I lived alone
the days were so bleak
and the nights were so black and cold
walkin' around in the street

Writers: Leo Sayer & Ray Parker, Jr.

when the money runs out
what will we do?
turn around and start anew
takes all your lovin' babe
to pull me through
without your love what would I do?

'cos I'd put you and me babe
up against the world
there ain't nobody else
like you 'n' me, girl
who wants the money
and the luxary
when love 'n' happiness
is all you need?

please, tell me what's on your mindI can see the tears but I don't know whyyou're cryingit it me or is it youis it real or just a moodwell I know you're sad but what are youtryin' to provewhen you say that you can't go onand you feel like you don't belongyou've got nobody to lean uponit seems we've come so far but we just can'tget alongwhere did we go wrongwhere did we go wrongwhere did we go wron

five days out of seven
eight hours of every one
I'm tryin' to buy a piece of heaven
but I'll be gone
before that heaven comes

work, work, work
who nees it?
it's all I ever seem to do
I'm killin' myself for a livin'
livin' the workin' man's blues

minute to minute
day after day
wherever I go it's always the same
