Original Sin Words and Music: Carolyn-Fe Trinidad & George Papafilys ©August 5, 2011, Montreal, Canada Gonna sweat all day standin’ here in the sun Lookin’ out on the field not wantin’ to run Ice got no chance, melts down in a touch Sittin’ back in this heat, don’t wanna do much CHORUS The heat of my touch brings fire to your skin A sip of your gin brings me back to the Original Sin Just like a devil, clawin’ at your guts Achin’ to breathe but the sun’s too hot What a way to live sittin’ here in this heat Fidgetin’ with a wish that'll make your heart skip a beat CHORUS I’m like a leaf hangin’ on to a tree Just waitin’ for wind to give me reprieve Hangin' on to life tryin’ to live it straight Don’t mind my tease, honey, you just took my bait CHORUS

Broken String Words and Music: Carolyn-Fe Trinidad & Dan Legault ©August 5, 2011, Montreal, Canada Mama’s done in the kitchen She’s been washing her hands She’s got blood on her shoulders She’s done something that no man can She looks up to the sky Breathes a sigh of relief Cause Lord Mama’s played him like a broken string Lord Mama played him like a broken guitar string He walked into her life Claims he’s a man of the world He’s done nothing to please her He stands back and watches her work She looks up to the sky Breathes a sigh of relief Cause Lord Mama’s played him like a broken string Lord Mama played him like a broken guitar string You think Mama’s been stumblin’ Holding the world on her back She’s got all her aces straight Mama walks off the beaten track She looks up to the sky Breathes a sigh of relief Cause Lord Mama’s played him like a broken string Lord Mama played him like a broken guitar string Lord Mama played him like a broken guitar string

Baby Bye Bye Words and Music: Carolyn-Fe Trinidad & Dan Legault ©August 5, 2011, Montreal, Canada Cry, cry baby no regrets You've been throwing money making bets Push and shove to see where this all ends Guys like you don't need to make amends Been there, done that, it's time to fly Don't follow me, baby bye bye Fast cars and chicks don't do the trick Keep going higher for your tricks No pain, no gain you're on top of your game Go and hit that wall without a shame Been there, done that, it's time to fly Don't follow me, baby bye bye It's a righteous trip when you hit your stride It's a solid grip to keep you alive You do it over and over again You ache, you break, you're reaching your end Been there, done that, it's time to fly Don't follow me, baby bye bye

Manual Overdrive Words and Music: Carolyn-Fe Trinidad & Naveen Uttamchandani ©August 5, 2011, Montreal, Canada I rode one with a six pack Goldilocks said it wasn’t right I got on one with a flat bed Mmmm, he said it was alright I found a round cab, a big wide load That was comfy and nice I’d like to stay here snuggled up and fine Just right to end my long haul nights I took a nap on an air ride One Oh Nine inches of inside height Axle spread, plate side walls 18 wheeler super single with a haul Hey Mack, I like your rig A semi lorry, juggernaut, class 5 gig Hey Jack, you wanna piggy back? Show me your tail lift four stroke Euro 5 synchro-mesh tow Double line, shift on the floor Let me feel the rubber on the road, baby let’s go Break fast, shift slow, watch your tow Pull it through the 18, 10-4 baby, Suzie coils hold I think I like your wheelbase Give me your diesel engine'd b-double converter gear You make me want to pump a double clutch Just like a fully - articulated low boy pup, Ain’t got no brake fade here, Bring me the king pin, honey baby, not the fifth wheel I want your overweight load Let’s see if Peterbilt your Freightliner up to code.
