Eat my cake
Lyrics by Carey Slade & Dave Rada, Music by Carey Slade

Sitting up late into the night
thinking to myself
If I get what I want
tell me lord will I lose what I have

If I had my cake
I would eat it too
And if you give me a break
I would beat it too

Well I go out late every night
with my boys in the band
You see I always get what I want
tell me will I lose what I have

If I had my cake
I would eat it too
And if you give me a break
I would beat it too

Well I know my dreams will come true
As sure as there is a god above
Cuz you see I always get what I want
So tell me lord will I lose what I have

If I had my cake
I would eat it too
And if you give me a break
I would beat it too
If I had my cake
I would eat it too
Oh lord you know I would
And if you give me a break lord
I would beat it too

Walk On
Lyrics by Carey Slade & Barbara Cameron Music by Carey Slade

There’s a storm brewing outside, just as dark as the one inside
Told me once a long time ago, if I ever made it to standing on my own
You’ld walk on, walk on Mmmm yeah

How can you turn your back on me baby
how can you turn you back on the love that we made
That we made Mmmmm yeah
If you walked away then I must be dreaming
And if I woke up would you still be walking away

Well walk on walk on Mmm yeah.
Walk on walk on walk Oh yeah

Now that I’m almost there
you remind me once again to beware
Tell me why baby why must there be
no choice, no choice for me

Walk on walk on Mmmm yeah
Walk on walk on walk on Oh yeah

If you ever walked out on me babe
my world would not cease to exist
Everything as I knew it would not
Would not come crumbling crumbling down

So walk on walk on Mmmm yeah
Walk on walk on walk on Oh yeah
Walk on walk on walk on
I will be just fine just you wait and see..

Wind in the Chime
Lyrics by Pete Thelen & Carey Slade Music by Carey Slade & Frankie Lee

Wind in the chime bring word my loves all right
Is she as restless as I tonight
Caress her like your caressing me
With your soft, sweet oh melody

Candle light dances as I write
I can see her body move in time with mine
Warm summer wind gonna bring us together again
Will make love to your music once again
Oh I’ll look her for on every corner I am on
Every street I on an every country I am in
I am gonna find her yes I will

Wind in the chime bring word my loves all right
Is she as lonesome as I
Caress her like your caressing me
With your soft, sweet oh melody

With your sweet melody
I said a warm summer wind gonna bring us together again
I said a warm summer wind gonna bring us together again
Will make love to your music once again
gonna make love to your music once again

Endless Circles
Lyrics and Music by Carey Slade

Been up half the night wondering where I went wrong
How I will set myself up
time after time.

Just an endless circle goin’ round an round
Just an endless circle goin’ round an round
And here I go again

Well I think that I’m strong enough to handle anything that comes my way
And how I am never ever gonna let, let my guard down again
But ever time I turn around well I am falling in love.

Just an endless circle goin’ round an round
Just an endless circle goin’ round an round
And here I go again
Just an endless circle goin’ round an round
Just an endless circle goin’ round an round
And here I go again

Maybe one day I will find that one special one
Who will fill that vast emptiness I feel inside
But for now I think that I will stay right here behind my walls
That I have built over the years

Ooooooooooo
Ooooooooooo
Just an endless circle, Just an endless circle babe
And there I go, there I go

Rock N Roll Man
Lyrics by Lorie Bradley & Carey Slade Music by Carey Slade

Where are you now my little rock n roll man
Are you sliding up an down your rain guitar strings
Are you standing still on your music man dreams

Swimming in the opposition of your extremes
Well I think life's more simple than it sometimes seems
What’s above your head my little swing along man

Where are you now my little rock n roll man
Are you sliding up an down your rain guitar strings
Are you standing still on your music man dreams

Well I think there’s more to it than you care to share
Is there a magical moon beam melting all your pain away
Well things could be different but with you it is always the same

Where are you now my little rock n roll man
Are you sliding up an down your rain guitar strings
Are you standing still on your music man dreams

Where are you now my little rock n roll man
Are you sliding up an down your rain guitar strings
Are you standing still on your music man dreams
Are you standing still on your music man dreams
Where are you now my little rock n roll man
Where are you now my little rock n roll man

Run
Music & Lyrics By Carey Slade

Oh see Johnny well he’s hanging on the street corners
Well he’s selling' his wares like, like he always does
Oh for your time he always has the right line
Well an for his time his price, his price is right

Oh Mary Jane’s well she’s got her addictions
Well she’s got them dark circles under her eyes
Well she sold her soul for that right
Well an now her life well based, is based on lies

Well you bury you future like you bury your past
And then you do it all in the name of going fast
Then you run, run away
Oh how fast you gonna run today
Oh how hard you gonna run today

Oh sell you soul for an easy line
Why then you have the mind, the mind to whine
Think you found your salvation
But I tell you now it just not worth my time

Well you bury you future like you bury your past
And then you do it all in the name of going fast
Then you run, run away
Oh how fast you gonna run today
Oh how hard you gonna run today

Jail House Song
Music By Carey Slade & Lyrics By Carey Slade & Barbara Cameron

As I drove you down to the jail house judge said you had to go
As you climbed out of my pickup truck you claimed you loved me so
Just remember I’ll be waiting here then you turned and said good-bye
As you walked away I remember a tear came to my eye, a tear came to my eye

There comes a time we all must pay our dues, there comes a time
There comes a time we all must pay our dues,
Looks like this time, looks like this time looks like this time you loose

Oh you have a child of five askin why daddy ain’t home tonight
What do I tell all the family guess I could lie but that ain’t right
What should I do all alone in bed when I am longing for you touch
Are you missing me like I’m missing you
Why tell me what should I do oh what should I do

There comes a time we all must pay our dues, there comes a time
There comes a time we all must pay our dues,
Looks like this time, looks like this time, looks like this time you loose

Oh when your time is served do you think you’ll see the light
What will it take for that second chance for this suffering just ain’t right
Suffering just ain’t right

There comes a time we all must pay our dues, there comes a time
There comes a time we all must pay our dues,
Looks like this time, looks like this time, looks like this time you loose

Take another look baby take another look
Take another look baby take another look
Take another look baby take another look

If you only knew
Music & Lyrics By Carey Slade

If you only knew how much I cared for you,
You would be here right now.
If you only knew how much I loved you,
You would be here right now.

Well I was looking out the window this morning
And I saw some birds flying south for the winter.
And it made me wonder, if you are ever coming home to me
Coming home to me.

If you only knew how much I cared for you,
You would be here right now.
If you only knew how much I loved you,
You would be here right now.

I tried to reach you all over the country
but you was no where to be found
How I cried for day’s an nights
because you was not here to help me along.
I don’t think you will ever know
what it feels like to be alone.

If you only knew how much I cared for you,
You would be here right now.
If you only knew how much I loved you,
You would be here right now.

Wasn't my fault
Music & Lyrics By Carey Slade

As I seen you standing there, all dressed up and looking mighty fine,
I wonder who’s warming your bed that we use to share, that we use to share
As I see you standing there all the love and the hate came rushing back in
All the anger and pain that you put me through, that you put me through

All the lonely nights of wondering where I went wrong
Only to find it wasn’t my, it wasn’t my fault, it wasn’t my fault
All the lonely nights of wondering where I went wrong
Only to find it wasn’t my fault

As I seen you standing there I know you can see me too
Even though you try to pretend that I don’t well I don’t exist
I’ve nothing to be sorry for when I give it everything I got
Oh no that doesn’t bother me one bit

Lovers
Music By Carey Slade & Frankie Lee Lyrics by Pete Thelen & Carey Slade

He’s her man she’s his woman, he’s his man she’s her wife
We go through life oh yes we do now hand in hand

Lookin for acceptance an dealing with the family plan
Trouble on the right and trouble with the left
Well some don’t care as long as their left to fight
In the matters of our hearts

Who’s the judge and the jury now, who decides how we live our life's
Cuz love is for lovers what's right or wrong and troubles gone
Just turn on your lights

Lookin for acceptance an dealing with the family plan
Trouble on the right and trouble with the left
Well some don’t care as long as their left to fight
In the matters of our hearts

He’s her man she’s his woman, he’s his man she’s her wife
We go through life oh yes we do now hand in hand

Lookin for acceptance an dealing with the family plan
Trouble on the right and trouble with the left
Well some don’t care as long as their left to fight
In the matters of our hearts

I said in matters of our hearts now
In the matters of our hearts
I want to know who’s the judge and the jury now
In the matters of our hearts baby
In the matters of our hearts

Holdin On
Music & Lyrics By Carey Slade

Watching your plane as it taxi’s away waiting for the ok to take flight
Oh try as I might yes to hold them back well the tears begin to flow

Well I dare not speak of the fears or speak of the tears
Cuz when your standing alone to face the unknown
Baby I’m holding on for your love

Now we’re far apart, missing each other so
But miles could never change my love for you
Oh try as I might yes to hold them back well the tears begin to flow

Well I dare not speak of the fears or speak of the tears
Cuz when your standing alone to face the unknown
Baby I’m holding on for your love

Well we talk every night oh on the telephone
But baby that ain’t right
Images of you well they pass through my dreams
I reach out to hold you but then I wake

Well I dare not speak of the fears or speak of the tears
Cuz when your standing alone to face the unknown
Baby I’m holding on for your love
I’m holding on for your love
Well I love you

Let it rain
Music & Lyrics By Carey Slade

So let it rain let it rain down,
cuz there ain’t no blue sky’s with the sun shining brightly
So let it rain let it rain down

Thoughts of you flicker through my mind like a movie I’ve seen somewhere
Lines are played out so fine an well I just can’t figure if its heaven or hell
So let it rain let it rain down

I’ve been searching for someone like you for all my life
As I find you still standing there even after the walls come down
I was just a broken woman standing there alone
Like a knight in shining armor you picked me up and took me home
Oh you took me home

So let it rain let it rain down,
cuz there clear blue sky’s with the sun shining brightly
So let it rain let it rain down

In the fantasy of Camelot I’ll alway’s be your Queen
Like the ending of a fairy tale we’ll find our holy grail

Trapped
Music & Lyrics By Carey Slade

Baby why don’t you come to me
Come to me in the darkness of the night
Baby why don’t you set me free

Back an forth well I pace all night long
Caged like the animal that I am
Thoughts of you runnin rampant through my brain

Oh I’m trapped, like an animal in a cage
Oh I’m trapped with these emotions in a rage
Well I’m trapped behind theses walls that you made
Never never to be torn down oh no no no

Dial your number on the telephone
It rings and rings but nobody’s home
Well the love we had well you stomped all over it

Oh I’m trapped, like an animal in a cage
Oh I’m trapped with these emotions in a rage
Well I’m trapped behind theses walls that you made
Never never to be torn down oh no no no
Yes I’m trapped oh I’m trapped

She's a dreamer
Music By Carey Slade Lyrics by Barbara Cameron & Carey Slade

Carousel of love has it passed me by, is there such a thing or is it all a lie
In a land where fairy tales leaves your mind wondering
Will your prince charming come charging to your rescue

But she’s a dreamer who knows no end
And tomorrow's horizons well there just around the bend

A little girl who grew up with love, visions which are white like a dove
Beautiful mansion built high in the sky growing' up to find its’ a lie
Prince charming don’t grow on trees as in her mind she finally sees

But she’s a dreamer who knows no end
And tomorrow's horizons well there just around the bend
She’s a dreamer who knows no end
And tomorrow's horizons are just around the bend

Well the moon is on the rise and the sun is on the set
Young woman cries for love, has yet to come her way
She’s had her fill of sorrow she’s had her fill of pain

But she’s a dreamer who knows no end
And tomorrow's horizons well there just around the bend
She’s a dreamer who knows no end
And tomorrow's horizons well there just around the bend

Love again has passed me by this time there are no tears to cry
I’ll take my time next time around
Someone will come my way together we will build our love

Cuz I’m a dreamer who knows no end
And tomorrow's horizons well there just around the bend
I’m a dreamer who knows no end
And tomorrow's horizons well there just around the bend

Too broke
Music & Lyrics By Carey Slade

John Scott and the Back Street Blues Band and me took ourselves a little trip
up to Prescott Valley you see we are gonna have ourselves a little
A little hoe down oh yes we are

Well we arrived at Pinion Pines oh along about 2pm oh yes we did
Where we bellied up, up to the bar you see we had ourselves such a long drive
oh yes we had yes we had

Scottie the sound man well he ate everything in sight
I’m here to tell you nothing at all was safe that night

Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was

Later on that night well the boys well they fired up their amps oh yes they did
where they came from miles and miles around
Oh just to compete in that wet T-shirt contest going on later that night

Oh yes, yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was

Well mean while that wet T-shirt contest was going on
Oh Johnny law well he showed up, up at the door
But we had one hell of a door guy cuz he would not let them in
Without a valid ID

Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Sturgis
Oh yes we was

Last thing I remember going on was that wet T-shirt contest
Where Bubba the roadie had the best seat in the house, front row
Cuz you see I had bellied up to that bar as many times as the law would allow
And sense I had one of them designated drives well I got quite plowed

And then the next thing I know is that I’m waking up with the sunshine
In my blood shot eyes, and my head really hurt in fact my whole body hurt
And as I was laying there in my misery I felt a body next to mine then
I really had to lay thinking to myself
Carey what did you do last night, Carey who did you do last night
Well I probable laid there for about as long as this songs been going on
Just so I could work up, just so I could work up the nerve
To roll over to see who was laying next to me
Much to my surprise yes much to my surprise much to my surprise
it was Scottie the sound man who ate everything in sight

Oh yes, yes we was to broke, to broke for Surges
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Surges
Oh yes we was to broke, to broke for Surges
Oh yes we was

Walk with me
Music & Lyrics By Carey Slade

Walk on sunny days walks on cloudy days
Walks in the sand and walk in the snow
Walk on mars and walk on the stars
Cuz its all just a walk in the park
Yes it’s all just a walk in the park

Walk with friends, walk with time
Walk with love in your heart
Walk with God in your soul
Cuz its all just a walk in the park
Yes it’s all just a walk in the park

All we do is walk our time away
Some run but most just walk
Some run away but all walk with me

Walk with the grass between your toes
Walk with hugs for those you meet
Walk with buds to share along the way
Cuz its all just a walk in the park
Yes it’s all just a walk in the park

All we do is walk our time away
Some run but most just walk
Some run away but all walk with me
Walk with me
Walk with me
Walk with me
Put your hand in mine and walk with me
Put your hand in mine and walk with me
Walk with me
