Serve It To Me Hot-Teves/Ryan  

I can smell your cooking from   
way cross town  
Had to find out  
what you putting down  

Tell me Miss Ryan  
What you got cooking in your pot?  
You can serve it to me cold  
but I love it when you serve it to me hot  

Oh Miss Ryan  
I can’t help myself  
I’m so hungry for your cooking  
I don’t want nothing else  

Tell me Miss Ryan  
What you got cooking in your pot?  
You can serve it to me cold  
but I love it when you serve it to me hot  

I’ll take a second helping  
and a third if there’s time  
The taste of this gumbo   
is blowing my mind  

Tell me Miss Ryan  
What you got cooking in your pot?  
You can serve it to me cold  
but I love it when you serve it to me hot  

I’ve tasted your cooking and  
it ain’t no lie  
everything’s better   

when it’s followed by pie  

Tell me Miss Ryan  
What you got cooking in your pot?  
You can serve it to me cold  
but I love it when you serve it to me hot

Wild Eyed Woman-Teves  

I called my mama  
called her on the phone  
Said told I love this woman  
she’s all I know  

she’s a wild eye’d woman  
it’s a mystery  
how this wild eye’d woman  
got hold of me  

She’s a voodoo child  
she’s a country girl  
an’t afraid of nothing  
in this whole damn world  

she’s a loaded gun  
she’s the cat’s meow  
she can charm a snake  
I don’t know how  

I got a wild eye’d Woman  
she’s my honey bee  
You better save yourselves people  
ain’t no saving me  

She takes no guff  
she takes no blame  
when you wind her up  
she’s a hurricane  

once she’s rolling  
she just can’t stop  
she can feed an army  
with whatever you got  

she can stop a train   
she can stop a crime  
she can start a war  
in 5 minutes time  

she done stole my heart   
she done stole my soul   
what I’m gonna do Mama   
Lord I just don’t know   

I got a wild eye’d Woman   
she’s my honey bee   
Well this Wild Eye’s Woman   
ain’t no saving me   

My mama cried   
She cried out loud   
said lord have mercy   
she gonna bring you down   

with a women like that   
there ain’t no doubt   
she gonna ruin your health   
she gonna wear you out   

I done raised you up    
I’m warning you son   
you ain’t finished   
but now you’re done   

you’re deep in trouble   
it’s plain as day   
that wild eye’d woman   
put you in your grave   

Got a wild eye’d Woman   
she’s my honey bee   
Well this Wild Eye’s Woman   
ain’t no saving me   
ain’t no saving me   
ain’t no saving me   
ain’t no saving me   
Lord, have Mercy!

Queen of The Wires-Teves   

All you guitar players in this town   
take your guitar and just lay it on down   
It ain’t your fault you weren’t built that way   
It’s a new day Son, better hear what I say   

She’s on fire   
She’s the Queen of the Wires   
She’s blowing up your world   
The soul sister guitar girl   

She’s a lady she’ll cut off your head   
melt your face and leave you for dead   
Plays the guitar so tasty and sweet   
When it’s time to rock the house she can’t be beat   

She’s on fire   
She’s the Queen of the Wires   
She’s blowing up your world   
The soul sister guitar girl   

Down on earth or in outer space   
people are equal it’s just a matter of taster   
The Queen is here to prove it to you   
if you have Soul there’s nothing you can’t do   

She’s on fire   
She’s the Queen of the Wires   
She’s blowing up your world   
The soul sister guitar girl

Ought To Be Loved-Teves 

Why sit around when you can have some fun 
Come on pretty baby, I might be the one 
Who’s going to love you like you ought to be loved 
love you like you ought to be loved 
A girl like you deserves a man like me  
who’s gonna love you like you ought to be loved 

If you want love you have to take a chance 
I wanna be your man for true romance 
I want to love you like you ought to be loved  
love you like you ought to be loved 
A girl like you deserves a man like me  
who’s gonna love you like you ought to be loved 

Take my hand and follow my lead 
Come on pretty baby I’m the one you need 
I gonna love you like you ought to be loved 
love you like you ought to be loved 
A girl like you deserves a man like me  
who’s gonna love you like you ought to be loved

Love to Be True-Teves 

I walk for miles outside in the pouring rain 
I need something, something to ease this pain 
Don’t know why I love you the way I do 
Simple things just seem too much for you 

You couldn’t help but treat me like a mark 
You never seem to feel pain 
Your heart has never once been hurt 
But sometimes everyone gets burnt 
Wouldn’t stop you anyway 

But I’m not the one who admits defeat 
You’re so sure that I’ll land on my feet 
I was the fool and I fell for you 
All I really wanted was a love to be true 
A love to be true 

I tried to look my eyes can barely see 
Every second seems like an eternity 
I tried to hold but you just let me go 
The honest truth is not for me to know 

You turned away and you were gone 
Couldn’t stop to wave goodbye 
I had faith but can’t believe 
how two could see so differentl 
What I thought was truth was just a lie 

But I’m not the one who admits defeat 
You’re so sure that I’ll land on my feet 
I was the fool and I fell for you 
All I really wanted was a love to be true 
A love to be true

Squares Everywhere-Teves 

I got Rooster that crows 
I got a dog that bites 
I got a cat that sleeps and 
eats all the mice 

There’s squares everywhere 
(squares everywhere) 
squares everywhere I look 
Call me crazy, call me a kook 
There’s squares everywhere I look 

I got a car that hops 
I got girl that flies 
I got me a lawyer  
to tell all my lies 

There’s squares everywhere 
(squares everywhere) 
squares everywhere I look 
Call me crazy, call me a kook 
There’s squares everywhere I look 

I got drummer that swings 
I got a bass that’s fat 
I got a long legged woman 
that knows where it’s at 

There’s squares everywhere 
(squares everywhere) 
squares everywhere I look 
Call me crazy, call me a kook 
There’s squares everywhere I look 

You can drive to work  
an hour each way 
work for the man 
take home your pay 
before you even get it 
it’s all ready spent 
scratch your head and wonder  
just where it all went 
you can jump the hoop 
you can walk the walk 
you can fly alone 
or in the flock 
when you in the crowd 
you won’t stand out 
Grab yourself a partner 
and swing em all about 

There’s squares everywhere 
(squares everywhere) 
squares everywhere I look 
Call me crazy, call me a kook 
There’s squares everywhere I look-(repeat)

Top Of The Clouds-Teves 

You look up in the sky 
and the darkness never ends 
the days all run together  
and you never seem to win 
I see you looking down 
Listen what I’m talkin’ about 
the rain may fall but 
The sun shines on top of the clouds 

So many mornings 
no sunshine on your face 
makes you feel so lonely 
you’re stuck up in the race 
patience pretty baby 
it’s natural to have your doubts 
the rain may fall but 
The sun shines on top of the clouds 

The world is always changing 
and it’s never slowing down 
the people that make it 
keep there feet on the ground 
Life is like a circus 
you want to avoid the clowns 
the rain may fall but 
The sun shines on top of the clouds 

One the clouds will break 
and the sun comes shining through 
Then you’ll really know that 
what I say is true 
I’ve been off the farm awhile 
I know what I’m talking about 
the rain may fall but 
The sun shines on top of the clouds

Laying In the Weeds-Teves 

I didn’t start it  
took three to hold me down 
Gave as good as I got,  
but then 4th one knocked me out 

It’s all good 
Beg your pardon if you please 
Don’t mind me 
I’m just laying in the weeds 

Memory like an elephant 
stubborn as a Georgia mule 
patient as an oak tree 
my momma didn’t raise no fool  

It’s all good 
Beg your pardon if you please 
Don’t mind me 
I’m just laying in the weeds 

Got the first one on his front porch 
the second outside his work 
the third one heard I was coming 
but he didn’t see where I lurked 

It’s all good 
Beg your pardon if you please 
Don’t mind me 
I’m just laying in the weeds 

Everyone deserves justice 
Everyone deserves peace 
The 4th got his cause he 
didn’t look in the weeds 

It’s all good 
Beg your pardon if you please 
Don’t mind me 
I’m just laying in the weeds
