She’s Long GoneWritten by The Black Keys

Recorded at Easy Eye Sound SystemEngineered by Dan AuerbachProduced by The Black Keys

She was made to blow you awayShe don’t care what any man say

You can watch her strut But keep your mouth shut

Or it’s ruination day

She’s long, long goneShe’s long gone like Moses through the corn

Her eyes are rubies and pearlsAnd she’s not made like those other girlsHer lashes flap and they smack men backLike springs they bounce off of her curls

Let me be your everlasting lightThe sun when there is none

I’m a shepherd for youAnd I’ll guide you through

Let me be your evelasting light

Let me be your everlasting lightI’ll hold and never scoldIn me you can confide

When no one’s by your sideLet me be your everlasting light

Oh darling, can’t you seeI’m shining just for you

Loneliness is overDark days are through

Let me be your everlasting lightA train going away from pain

Love is the coalThat makes this train roll

Let me be your everlasting light

The Only OneWritten by The Black Keys

Recorded at Easy Eye Sound SystemEngineered by Dan AuerbachProduced by The Black Keys

Can’t explainNor can I contain

Control You have on my soul

It’s all I do Is baby dream of you

I’m falling downWhen you’re around

You’re the only oneYou’re the only one

I’m so wrapped up in a dazeHoping this is just a faze

But when all is said and doneI know you are still the one

You’re the only oneYou’re the only oneCupid’s bow it stung

Now you’re the only one

Mystery Is what this is to me

I’m giving upI’m having no luck

Like a ghostThe one that I love most

She disappears When I get near

Next GirlWritten by The Black Keys

Recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound StudioEngineered by Mark Neill

Produced by The Black Keys and Mark NeillBacking Vocals by Nicole Wray

The look of the cakeIt ain’t always the taste

My ex girl she had Such a beautiful face

I wanted loveBut not for myself

But for the girlSo she could love herself

My next girlWill be nothing like my ex girl

I made mistakes back thenI’ll never do it again

With my next girlShe’ll be nothing like my ex girl

That was a painful dance Now I got a second chance

A beautiful faceAnd a wicked way

And I’m paying for her Beautiful face every day

All that work Over so much timeIf I think too hard

I might lose my mind

Tighten UpWritten by The Black Keys

Recorded at The Bunker, Brooklyn, New YorkEngineered by Kennie Takahashi

Produced by Danger Mouse

I wanted love, I needed loveMost of all, most of all

Someone said true love was deadAnd I’m bound to fall, bound to fall

For youBut what can I do?

Take my badge but my heart remainsLovin’ you, baby child

Tighten up on your reigns You’re runnin’ wild, runnin’ wild

It’s true

Sick for days in so many waysI’m achin’ now, I’m achin’ now

It’s times like these I need reliefPlease show me how, show me how

To get right

When I was young and moving fastNothing slowed me down, slowed me down

Now I let the others passI’ve come around, come around

Living just to keep goingGoing just to stay sane

All the while never knowingIt’s such a shame

I don’t need to get steadyI know just how I feel

I’m telling you to get readyMy dear

Howlin’ For You

Backing Vocals by Nicole Wray

I must admitI can’t explain

All these thoughts racingThrough my brain

It’s trueBaby I’m howlin’ for you

There’s something wrongWith this plot

The actors here Have not got

A clueBaby I’m howlin’ for you

MockingbirdCan’t you see

The little girl’s Got a hold on me

Like glueBaby I’m howlin’ for you

Throw the ball To the stick

Swing and missIn the catcher’s mitt

Strike twoBaby I’m howlin’ for you

The Go GetterWritten by The Black Keys

Produced by The Black Keys and Mark Neill

Hi-fi bone boxPretty girl in bobby sox

After party in a hotel roomPretty soon there will be no moonStumble home in the pouring rain

Let the water ease my worried brainSome days I just can’t get along

I need a head to lean my shoulders on

Palm treesThe flat broke disease

And LA has got meOn my knees

I amThe bluest of blues

Every day A different way to lose

The Go Getter

I got a table at the Rainbow RoomI told my wife I’d be home soon

Big ships are approaching the docksI got my hi-fi bone box

Mashed potatoes in cellophaneI see my life going down the drain

Hold me baby and don’t let goPretty girls help to soften the blow

Im Not The OneWritten by The Black Keys

Recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound StudioEngineered by Mark Neill

Produced by The Black Keys and Mark Neill

I've been triedAnd I’ve been tested

I was born tiredAnd I never got rested

Harder thanMarble stoneI’m better off

Better off left alone

Cause I’m not the oneNo I’m not the oneYou wanted it all

But I’ll give you noneCause, I’m not the one

Well, like a toyTo a kid

I said jump And mama you did

You know, your daddy knowsAnd your mama knows

That’s wrongSo now it’s time

For me to move on

You thinkThat I’m normal

But all these yearsI’m just trying to warn you

You’d do good To move onNo it won’t

Hurt me none

Too Afraid To Love You

Written by The Black KeysRecorded at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio

Engineered by Mark NeillProduced by The Black Keys and Mark Neill

My gears they grindMore each dayAnd I feel like

They’re gonna grind away

And the city blocksThey drive me wild

They’re never endingMile after mile

I just don’t know what to doI’m too afraid to love you

It’s heaven on earthIn her embrace

Her gentle touchAnd her smiling face

I’m just one wishingThat I was a pair

With someone Oh somewhere

All those sleepless nightsAnd all those wasted days

I wish loneliness would leave me But I think he’s here to stay

What more can I doI’m wringing myself dryAnd I can’t afford to lose

One more teardrop from my eye

Unknown Brother

Written by The Black KeysRecorded at Easy Eye Sound System

Engineered by Dan AuerbachProduced by The Black Keys

Though I never met youAnd we spoke not a word

I’ll never forget youThrough stories that I’ve heard

For you unknown brotherMy baby’s mother is pained

Cause your soul is in heavenBut your memory remains

Unknown, unknown brotherI’ll meet you someday

Unknown, unknown brotherWe’ll walk through fields where children

play

Your eyes shined brightWhen you were a kidYour sisters loved youAnd all that you did

Big brother, big brotherDon’t worry a bit

Your flame has not fadedSince the day it was lit

Your life Was joy

Your mama’sOnly boy

And when the skiesAre blue

Big brother They’re blue for you

We’ll smile like picturesOf you as a boy

Long before you retiredTo heavenly joy

Ten Cent PistolWritten by The Black Keys

Recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound StudioEngineered by Mark Neill

Produced by The Black Keys and Mark Neill

Well, he ran aroundLate at night

Holding hands And making light

Of everything That came before But there she wasBehind the door

She hit them with her ten cent pistolBecause they ruined her name

Well, she hit them with her ten cent pistolAnd they’ve never been the same

There’s nothing worseIn this world

Than payback from a Jealous girl

The laws of manDon’t apply

When blood gets inA woman’s eye

Stars did fallThunder rolled

Bugs crawled backIn their holes

The couple screamedBut far too late

Cause a jealous heart Did retaliate

Sinister KidWritten by The Black Keys

Recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound StudioEngineered by Mark Neill

Produced by The Black Keys and Mark Neill

The crooks are outAnd the streets are gray

You know I wouldn’t have itAny other way

Your mother’s wordsThey’re ringing still

But your mother don’tPay our bills

A sinister kid is a kid whoRuns to meet his Maker

A drop dead sprint from the day he’s bornStraight into his Maker’s arms

And that’s me, that’s meThe boy with the broken halo

That’s me, that’s meThe devil won’t let me be

I got a tortured mindAnd my blade is sharp

A bad combinationIn the dark

If I kill a manIn the first degreeBaby would you

Flee with me

These DaysWritten by The Black Keys

Recorded Soil of the South Studios in San DiegoEngineered by Mark Neill

Produced by The Black Keys and Mark Niell

My hand to GodI didn’t mean to

After allLook what we’ve been throughMen come in different shades

That’s how we’re made

The little house on Ellis DriveIs where I felt most alive

The oak tree covered that old FordI miss it Lord, I miss it Lord

These blood red eyesDon’t see so good

But what’s worse is if they couldWould I change my ways?

Wasted times and broken dreamsViolent colors so obscene

It’s all I see these daysThese days

Watch what you sayThe devil is listenin’

He’s got ears that youWouldn’t believe

And brother once you go to himIt’s your soul you can never retrieve
