Ricky Scaggs Medley

    [Song: Heartbroke]

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    Well, who wouldn't notice the fire in your eyes?
    Or the bitter direction of impending goodbyes?
    I'm fallin', I'm folded, I'm welded in place,
    At the sight of you standin' with streaks down your face.
    You got your-

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    Go runnin' from the reason. Get your-

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    Don't give up on believin' in me.

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    Who kept me from leavin', with my-

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    Well, cryin' when you're rich is a poor if you're lonely,
    Sheer madness prevails upon reason to yield.
    But all is not lost, it is only mistaken.
    A small consolation but I know just how you feel.
    You got your-

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    Y' go runnin' from the reason. Get your-

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    Don't give up on believin' in me.

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    Who kept me from leavin', with my-

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    You kept me from leavin', with my-

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    With my-

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    With my-

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    You got your-

    All: (singing)
    Heart broke

    [Song: You've Got a Lover]

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    The clubs are all closed and there's no where to go
    When the sun wont show for hours
    The streets have all emptied and lovers lay sleeping
    And dreaming of each other.

    All: (singing)
    You've got a lover but it's not me.

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    He can't love you like I can

    All: (singing)
    There may be others yes I understand

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Will they love me-
    Like you can.
    There's acres and acres of heartbroken lovers
    I know we're not the first ones
    But sometimes it seems that it's just like a dream
    That you try hard to remember.

    All: (singing)
    You've got a lover but it's not me.

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    He can't love you like I can

    All: (singing)
    There may be others yes I understand

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    But will they love me-
    Like you can.

    [Song: Highway 40 Blues]

    Fatz: (singing)
    These Highway 40 blues
    I've walked holes in both my shoes
    Counted the days since I've been gone
    Well I'd like to see the lights of home
    I've wasted time and money too
    Squandered years in search of truth
    In the end I had to lose
    Lord about to pay my dues
    Got them Highway 40 blues
    Highway called when I was young
    Told me lies of things to come
    Fame and fortune lies ahead
    That's what the billboard lights had said
    Shattered dreams my mind is numb
    Money's gone stick out my thumb
    Eyes are filled with bitter tears
    Lord I ain't been home in years
    Got them Highway 40 blues
    You know I've traveled all around
    Rolling stone from town to town
    Met pretty girls I have to say
    None of them could make me stay
    Well I've played the music halls and bars
    Had fancy clothes and big fine cars
    Things a country boy can't use
    Dixieland, I sure miss you
    Got them Highway 40 blues

Better All Over

    [Guitar intro]

    Announcer:
    Ladies and gentlemen.
    Only once in a lifetime does a man come along with such unquestionable talent and persistence- that he cannot be denied.
    People, I'd like you to give a warm welcome- a warm ShowBiz welcome, to your favorite rockabilly relative.
    Uncle Klunk.

    [Song: Better All Over]

    Uncle Klunk: (singing)
    Fell better all Over
    More than anywhere else, baby
    When I'm around you
    Well I feel better all over
    More than anywhere else
    When you kiss me like you do
    Well am as wild as a buck
    Everytime you call me up
    You sure makes me feel like a wheel
    Well I feel better all over
    More than anywhere else
    That's exactly how I feel
    Well I feel better all over
    More than anywhere else
    When you whisper sweet nothings in my ear
    Well I feel better all over
    More than anywhere else when you
    Anytime you're near
    Well my heart beats double time
    When you hold your hand in mine
    You sure is a wonderful deal
    Well I feel better all over
    More than anywhere else
    That's exactly how I feel

    [Guitar solo]

    Well I feel better all over
    More than anywhere else
    When you hold me in your arms
    Well I feel better all over
    More than anywhere else
    When you thrill me with your charms
    Well I di-ji-di-ji-diddle
    I'm as fit as a fiddle
    You makes me wanna kick up my heels
    Well I feel better all over
    More than anywhere else
    That's exactly how I feel
    Well that's exactly how I feel
    Well that's exactly how I feel

Going Downhill

    [Song: Going Downhill]

    Fatz: (singing)
    It all started at the corner table
    Sippin' on a Jack and Coke
    By the end of the evenin'
    We were actin' like married folk
    The weekend weakened me and took me of my will
    You got me-

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Ahh~

    Fatz: (singing)
    A goin' downhill
    Goin' downhill

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Goin' downhill

    Fatz: (singing)
    Yeah, still I can't get my fill of you
    I-I-I've spent all my money
    I have lost my respect
    Y-you got me walkin' in circles, honey
    I- I'm a- I'm a nervous wreck
    Lord, one step ahead of a welfare dollar bill
    You got me-

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Ahh~

    Fatz: (singing)
    A goin' downhill
    A goin' downhill

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Goin' downhill

    Fatz: (singing)
    Yeah, still I can't get my fill of you

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Ahh~

    Fatz: (singing)
    Well I was voted most likely
    A'back in Seventy Nine (Nine)
    I'da made it straight to the top honey (Ahh)
    All I needed was time (Time)
    But you put a somethin' on me
    So unreal, you got me-

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Ahh~

    Fatz: (singing)
    Goin' downhill
    Goin' downhill

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Goin' downhill

    Fatz: (singing)
    Yeah, still I can't get my fill of you

    I can't eat, I can't sleep, I think about you
    From daylight to dawn
    I bet I won't weigh 15 pounds
    A'when they drag my body home
    Like a junkie hooked on dope
    I'm hooked on your thrill
    You got me-

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Ahh~

    Fatz: (singing)
    Goin' downhill
    A goin' downhill

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Goin' downhill

    Fatz: (singing)
    Yeah, still I can't get my fill of you

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Ahh~

    Fatz: (singing)
    A goin' downhill
    Goin' downhill

    Beach Bear: (singing)
    Goin' downhill

    Fatz: (singing)
