2 FREE RIDING MAN Shiver going down his spine every time he hears the whistle blowing crying like a poor broken heart He s not a stranger in this town he s been known to set hearts on fire and he s been known to leave them all behind TURN IT ON (music: M. Kettunen / lyrics: M. Kettunen,L. Lindroos) I m driving home, but I m lost in the night as lost as anyone can be I need some help, but you re not around please, let your love shine on me Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on Turn on your lovelight for me Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on without your love I can t see I ve been away for a long, long time I hope I still find the way To make your sweet love shine on me at the end of the day Turn it on, turn it on... I m getting closer, but you don t know if my intensions are real I m telling you baby, get rid of doubts and let your love shine on me Turn it on, turn it on... Matti: dobro, banjo Free riding man, it s not hard to understand the train keeps on rollin without you Free riding man, it s not hard to understand the train keeps on rollin without you Once he had a burning love he had himself a kindhearted woman she used to be his pride and joy He was happy for a while but every time he heard the whistle blowing he knew it was calling for him Free riding man... Now his legs are getting old he can feel the cold in his bones waiting for the last arriving train Free riding man...

3 ALL THOSE SWEET SONGS (music: M. Kettunen, lyrics: M. Kettunen, L. Lindroos) When I was five daddy got a new car he felt so alive We took a ride and listened to the music on the brand new radio All those sweet songs of the 70 s All those sweet songs where have they gone? When I was ten daddy had the same car and a new guitar Every now and then I can still hear him playing them tunes again All those sweet songs... Turned fifteen man, it was a good year playing in a band at eighteen yeah, I was learning to really understand All those sweet songs... I m older now driving my own car and playing my guitar Every now and then my little boy tells me Mummy, play them tunes again All those sweet songs... Matti: acoustic & electric guitar Ville: mandolin, acoustic guitar WE GOT THE FIRE BURNING Well, most of my time I spend in the kitchen while my old man keeps running around I tell you once again this time I ain t bitching you got yourself a cook, but you can t be found Baby you know we got the fire burning baby you know we got to keep it alive Baby you know we got the fire burning baby you know we got to keep it alive We got a real mess honey, you better believe it the cooking ain t good and I spilled the wine There s nothing I can do now, no way to clean it well, I need you to work it out fine Baby you know... We started this thing on the kitchen table baby you know just what I mean You used to be so willing and able I used to keep that table so clean Burning, boiling, man I m on fire every pot is hot, you know that s a lot I ve done it all for you honey, I ain t no liar now you better show me all that you ve got Baby you know... Matti: mandolin, acoustic guitar Ville: electric slide guitar A LITTLE LOVE (CAN HURT NO ONE) Burn down my foolish heart burn down my soul I can feel my broken heart turning black as coal you told me and you were gone you told me but you were wrong I ride along with the heavy cloud I ride along with the storm I ride along with the falling rain to wash away the pain A little love... You gave me just a little love and you gave me so much more Now I know that a little love is worth fighting for a little love can hurt no one a little love can hurt no one Matti: electric & acoustic guitar Ville: 12-string acoustic guitar TRAIN TO CATCH That train is carrying my dreams carrying my hopes Ooh, you got to stop hiding babe, you got to hop right in Ooh The train is bringing my love bringing my love That train is carrying my dreams carrying my hopes, train to catch Ooh, you got a train coming your way Ville: mandolin, pedal steel guitar
