Aching

Steve Graham
Words and Music

It hurts and there’s nothing I can do
You know I need to know, …to hear you say
I'm aching for you too

Tell me you long for my touch
Tell me now its long overdue
I need to hear the words, …to hear you say…
I'm aching for you too
I ache for you

Tell me that you’re aching for me too
Tell me you ache for me too

Baby Boomer Blues

Steve Graham
Words and Music

I’ve got the middle aged beer gut baby boomer blues
My wife wants to take an ocean cruise
Up in the morning, off to work
Pick up the kids and the laundered shirts
Middle-aged beer gut baby boomer blues
Waiting for retirement and the ten o’clock news

We wore industrial strength rose colored glasses
Went to rallies instead of classes
Now I see, I’ve been shown
We should’ve just left bad enough alone

I’ve got the middle aged, beer gut, baby boomer blues
What I have, is nothing to loose
Monday night football is what I have left
I used to Rock and Roll now I’m nearly deaf
Middle aged beer gut, baby boomer blues
Waiting for retirement, and the ten o’clock news

We set out to save the world
Thought we had a chance and gave it a whirl
We were wrong it’s sad to say
Human nature won the day

I’ve got the middle aged beer gut baby boomer blues
I want to boogie, instead I snooze
I used to be a partying fool
Now I’ve got to be careful or I’ll start to drool
Middle-aged beer gut baby boomer blues
Waiting for retirement and the ten o’clock news
Waiting for retirement and the ten o’clock news

Dadgum Lazy Fool

Steve Graham
Words and Music


I'm gonna lie on the sofa and drink a little brew
I ain't goin’ nowhere till I know what else to do (She said)
Get off that sofa you dadgum lazy fool”

She called out as she left me “you don’t have a friggin’ clue
Get off that sofa you dadgum lazy fool
If you don't get up today I'm not going to stay here with you”

I'm gonna lie on the sofa I'm feeling kinda low
I didn't even notice till that girl walked out the door (She said)
Get off that sofa I can't take it no more

She called out as she left me “you don’t have a friggin’ clue
Get off that sofa you dadgum lazy fool
If you don't get up today I'm not going to stay with you

I've been lying on the sofa since I can't remember when
Why did she leave me, oh God it's a sin
I'm gonna to lie the sofa till she comes back home again

She called out as she left me “you don’t have a friggin’ clue
Get off that sofa you dadgum lazy fool
If you don't get up today I'm not going to stay here with you”

I'm gonna lie on the sofa and drink a little brew
I ain't goin’ nowhere till I know what else to do (She said)
Get off that sofa you dadgum lazy fool
Get off that sofa you dadgum lazy fool

Dream Boat Baby

Steve Graham
Words and Music

Dream, Dream
I’m not tall, dark and handsome; but I’ll make your dreams come true

Forget about those other, half-hearted lovers
No part-time passion will do oo
I’ll never let you go
I’ll give all my lovin’ to you

You’re in all my dreams; my everything
You’re perfect in every way aa
I’ll make your dreams come true
There’s just a few little things I need you to do

Come watch me play soccer; learn to love beer
Don’t put your hair up in curlers; pull your skirt down dear
Weekends fishing for bass at the lake
Forget how to flirt; learn how to bake
And on Sundays we’ll watch football on TV


Dream, Dream
I’m not tall, dark and handsome; but I’ll make your dreams come true

Forget about those other, half-hearted lovers
No part-time passion will do oo
I’ll never let you go
I’ll give all my lovin’ to you

You’re in all my dreams; my everything
You’re perfect in every way aa
I’ll make your dreams come true
There’s just a few little things I need you to do

Stop at the market you know what I like
Loose a little weight; but wear your sweaters tight
A little less makeup wouldn’t hurt you none
Remember that shopping ain’t my idea of fun
And on Sundays we’ll watch football on TV

Dream, Dream
I’m not tall, dark and handsome; but I’ll make your dreams come true

Fantasy Girl

Steve Graham
Words and Music

I was down at the Tavern
On Twelfth and Lamar
Minding my business
Drinking beer at the bar
She turned on her barstool
And we started to talk
I could tell what she was thinking
And she knew what I thought

Fantasy girl you’re what I need
I can read your mind it’s hard to believe
Your motives ain’t honest your thoughts ain’t pure
It’s a mind trip Baby let’s take the tour

No love no romance or holding hands
Just hanky panky in the back of the van
A little perversion is what you need
Fantasy girl you’re just like me

Fantasy girl I'm what you need
You can read my mind it’s hard to believe
My motives ain’t honest my thoughts ain’t pure
It’s a mind trip Baby let’s take the tour

In the street up and down the hall
At the park and in the mall
A little perversion is what you need
Fantasy girl you’re just like me

Well that’s the way it happened
As best as I recall
It was a long hot summer
Or it didn’t happen at all

Go Baby

Words and music
Steve Graham

There’s a double feature at the Twin
We’ll double date with Jerry and Gwen
Go Baby Go
Go Baby Go
Go Baby Go We’ll Go
Anywhere you want to
Go

I’ll pick up Jerry, you pick up Gwen
We’ll hide in the trunk and we’ll slip right in
Etc

I spent a lot of time in the Grocery store
Baggin and sackin and moppin the floor
Carried out the groceries wasn’t slow
Made a little money for the picture show

We’ll get some popcorn and Junior Mints too
Fog up the windows you know what to do
Go Baby Go
Go Baby Go
Go Baby Go We’ll Go
Anywhere you want to
Go

We’ll get some popcorn and Junior Mints too
Fog up the windows you know what to do
Go Baby Go
Go Baby Go
Go Baby Go We’ll Go
Anywhere you want to
Go

Go Baby Go We’ll Go
Anyplace, anytime, anywhere you want to
Go

Happy, happy birthday to you
Happy, happy birthday to you
Happy, happy, happy

Happy birthday to you

I wrote this itty bitty ditty just for you
