[Verse 1]
Said I've been around the world, wrote a million songs
It's all a bore to me
I've slept in the gutter and I've lied with the dogs
It never bothered me
Said the sheriff, he come too with his little boys in blue
They've been looking for me, child
But with my crystal-sheen guitar, I'm another ego star
So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Get me to the stage, it brings me home again
This is Shangrila
I'm trippin' on it now, it brings me home again
This is Shangrila

[Verse 2]
Said that, I look bad in shorts, but most of us do
Don't let that bother me
I'm a football who knows who (Uh huh)
And I don't believe in smack talk (Uh huh)
So don't you die on me, babe
Don't you die on me

[Bridge]
'Cause love is all good people need
And music sets the sick ones free
Without love, no one ever grows
Nothing gonna ever sing

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
Because now, this is Shangrila, honey
And you have gathered for the feast
My bread is your body
The wine is blood, child
Yeah, yeah, the wine is blood, babe (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
The wine is
Give it to me, said

[Chorus]
Get me to the stage, it brings me home again
Said this is Shangrila
I'm trippin' on it now, it brings me home again
This is Shangrila

[Outro]
Get me to the stage, it brings me home again
I'm trippin' on it now, it brings me home again
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Intro]
Oh, oh-oh, oh, yes, ah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
San Francisco, where the flowers bloom in spring
I said, a-fade to winter
And see what disease brings
Augustino, with his eyes once a shining sea
I said he's half a shadow
God don't let that be me

[Refrain]
I'm a Stardog Champion

[Verse 2]
West Virginia, that's where my father lies
He was a wartime hero
The kind that money buys
It's a diamond bracelet, for my mommy's memory
I said that's all she wrote, boy
That's all she wrote for me, yeah

[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm just a Stardog Champion
I'm a Stardog Champion
I'm a Stardog
That's right!

[Bridge]
And the children, they used to sing of love
With the grace from the Lord above
I said the children, they used to sing out loud
Sing it loud and proud

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Good God
A-no, no, no, no, no, no
I'm a Stardog Champion
I'm a Stardog Champion
I'm a Stardog, baby
I ain't gonna let you down, yeah
Ain't gonna let you down, no
Ain't gonna let you down, no

[Outro]
The children sing
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, ah"

And would I live at all

Say he who rides the pony must someday fall
Talking to my Alter, life is what you make it
And if you make it death, well rest your soul away, away
Away, yeah, child

[Verse 2]
It's a broken kinda feelin', she'd have to tie me to the ceiling
A bad moon's a-comin', better say your prayers, child
I wanna tell you that I love you, but does it really matter
I just can't stand to see you draggin' down again, again
My baby, again, oh, yeah

[Chorus]
So I'm singin'
And this is my kind of love, it's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves me alone, yes it does
And this is my kind of love, it's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves me alone
