That Rock’n’Roll Sound
(Originally performed by Challenger-7 - written by Stewart Cunningham)
When your feeling blue, just kick off those shoes
Put on a rock’n’roll record,
let your spirits go flying away
Let your dreams run wild today
Yeah the guitars are sweet and the stereo’s loud
Nothin beats that rock’n’roll sound
It’ll pick you up, It’ll turn you around
Cut you loose, that rock’n’roll sound
Well your team has lost it’s final game
The season is over and there is nothing to gain
you make it home and you open a beer
Put on a record, what do you hear?
Yeah the guitars are sweet, the stereo’s loud
Nothing beats that rock’n’roll sound
It could pick you up if your team never made it
Cut you loose, that rock’n’roll sound
That rock’n’roll sound!!!
I want someone to rock with
I want something to roll with ooo ooo yeah
So your girlfriends left you for another rman
It’s a sweet old world, I can understand
Nothing I say could change the sway
I’ll keep on singing this rock’n’roll way
Well the guitars are sweet and the stereo’s loud
Nothing beats that rock’n’roll sound
It’ll pick you up and turn you around
Cut you loose – that rock’n’roll sound
Will turn you around

Melt (Originally performed by The Someloves - written by Mather/Mariani)
A thought that you may feel
and a second that is real
And in a moment you will see
Why you are there and I am here
That’s when you melt away, You melt away
Looking for love with someone else as you melt away
Searching for signs that are somewhere else
as you melt away
A breath that you may take
is a sign that one must wait
And in a moment you will be
Just like a sail that must run free
That’s when you melt away, you melt away
Looking for love with someone else as you melt away
Trying to tie it all together as you melt away
That’s when you melt away, you melt away
Looking for love with someone else as you melt away
Searching for signs that are somewhere else as you melt away
Wondering what worlds are gonna be out there as you melt away
Trying to tie it all together as you melt away
Fade and melt away

A Beautiful Sound
(written by Stewart Cunningham)
It’s getting late at night
Staring out on the empty street lights
There’s no more cars passing by
It’s getting late at night…
Up all night, up all night
Up all night and the day before
The longest day and the longest night
I was up all night under empty street lights
At last I saw the world so right
Reflected by that empty
And then I saw the end in sight
And then I held a wonderful sight
At last I heard a beautiful Sound
Everything was alright
Up all night, I was up all night
Up all night and the day before
The longest day and the longest night
Up all night under the empty street lights
At last I saw the world so right
Reflected by that empty night
And then I saw the end in sight
At last I held a wonderful sight
And then I heard a beautiful Sound
At then I heard a beautiful Sound
Eveything was alright
At last I saw the world so right
Reflected by that empty night
And then I saw everything alright

Edge Of Suburbia
(written by Stewart Cunningham)
I got lost in suburbia
Hanging out at the edge of the world
they can’t find me here in suburbia
I’m on the internet telephone calls
In suburbia - I’ll hide away at the end of the world
If you find me here in suburbia
You might find yourself in suburbia
Spend the days in a haze
Computer games and wasting time
Searching to free your mind
I’m anonymous a face in the middle of a crowd heading home…
Heading home thru space, suburbia, I’ll hide away
If you find yourself in suburbia
You might find the edge of suburbia
You’ll pend the days in a haze
I got lost in suburbia,
I found myself hanging out at the end of the world
Just hanging out…
Playin guitar just like Neil Young
Cruising the bush I got nature and fun
Electric blues, another cup of tea
Jump on a train ride along with me
The edge of suburbia, I’ll fade away
They can’t find me here in suburbia
You’ll find me on the edge of suburbia
You can spend the days in a Haze

The Hipshake
(Trad: Slim Harop...Arranged by Stewart Cunningham)
Let me tell you 'bout a dance that's goin' around
Everybody's doin' it from the grownup down.
You don't move your head, Don't move your hands,
You don't move your lips, Just shake your hips.
Do the hipshake babe, do the hipshake babe,
Shake your hips babe, shake your hips babe
Now ain’t that easy
If you don't know don't be no threat
Just listen to me and do what I say.
Don't move your head, don't move your hands,
Don't move your lips, just shake your hips.
Do the hipshake babe, do the hipshake babe,
Shake your hips babe, shake your hips babe,
Well ain't that easy
Well, I met a young girl in a country town
She said, "What do you know about Slim Harpo!"
She didn't move her head, she didn't move her hands,
Didn't move her lips child, she shuck her hips.
She did the hipshake babe, she did the hipshake babe,
Shake your hips babe, Shake your hips babe,
Well ain't that easy.

Making Up Lost Time
(written by Stewart Cunningham)
I’m goin Back to that town we all know
I’ve been away and nobody knows who I am anymore
I’ve been hiding away, long time gone
How can I find all those dear old friends
That I used to know a long time ago
(A long time ago)
Why did I leave in such hurry that day
Must have been the drink and the drugs and the booze
that drove me away…….I had to get away
Now 7 long years down the track
I miss ya baby, please take me back.
I miss ya baby
ooooooh those golden days on fire
And I got to make you mine
All over again, one more time
Making up lost time, Making up for lost time
….One more time

See You Tonight
(written by Stewart Cunningham)
Do you remember that feeling when smoke gets in your eyes
It’s a momentary pain and you know that it will subside
Yeah I feel that way when I see your face
Remember a time, a feeling or a place
I’m not very certain bout the way I’m living
But I know that I will survive
I’ll see you tonight Like every other time
we’ll say hi, maybe next time
Yeah I’ll see you tonight, when this town comes alive
Yeah I’ll see you tonight
Every Saturday night I do the same things over and over
Ask myself why am I going to the Town Hall hotel,
I can never stay sober….
I’m not very certain where the girls are going
But I know there not going where I’m going
Yeah I’ll see you tonight when this town comes alive
And I’ll be with the Ghosts when this town comes alive
Yeah I’ll be with the ghosts when this town comes alive
Will I see you tonight?

Bicycle Man
(written by Stewart Cunningham)
I’m a steady rolling man, I do what I can
I don’t own no land, just a bicycle man
Like a bicycle man, I roll thru this land
day after day, I take some time to understand
I’m a steady rolling man, yes that’s what I am,
I’m a steady rolling man, I do what I can
Take some time when I can, I gotta make my stand
A steady rolling man, not wanted in this land
Everybody wants their gold, I’ll settle for the cold
And some time to grow old, just some time to steady roll
Like a steady rolling man
Pushing up the hills but I roll down to the sea
Here comes a steady rolling man, like a bicycle man
Pushin up the hill but I’ll roll down to the sea
Like a steady rolling man
Like a steady rolling man, yes that’s what I am,
Like a steady rolling man, I do what I can
Like a steady rolling man
Like a bicycle man
