karaoke
We got some thin we both know it,
We dont talk too much about it
Aint no real big secret, all the same,
Somehow we get around it
Listen, it dont really matter to me
Baby, you believe what you wanna believe
You see, you dont have to live like a refugee
Somewhere, somehow, somebody must have
Kicked you around some
Tell me why you wanna lay there,
Revel in your abandon
Honey, it dont make no difference to me
Baby, everybodys had to fight to be fre e
You see, you dont have to live like a refugee
No baby, you dont have to live like a refugee
Baby, we aint the first
Im sure a lot of other lovers been burned
Right now this aint real to you
Its one of those things you got to feel to be true
Somewhere, somehow, somebody must have
Kicked you around some
Who knows, maybe you were kidnapped,
Tied-up, taken away, and held for ransom
Honey, it dont really matter to me
Baby, everybodys ha d to fight to be free
You see, you dont have to live like a refugee
No, you dont have to live like a refugee
You speak to me in natural harmony
Like we both grew up with nothin'
And I can't believe my own memory
But it one day could be coming
And I don't even know the wrong I've done
And I don't even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever
Will stand accused of love
Watched the sun go down behind London town
I was burnt, stood up in Mayfair
I caught a train, black car through the rain
From the trust that hung betrayed there
And I don't even know the wrong I've done
And I don't even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever
Will stand accused of love
Well the attorney grins, the witness is drug in
With his face half hid in shadow
Sworn to God and state, the truth arrives too late
And defense goes out the window
And we don't even know the wrong we've done
And we don't even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever
Will stand accused of love
Will stand accused of love
She laughed in my face, told me good-bye
Said "Don't think about it, you can go crazy
Anything can happen, anything can end
Don't try to fight it, don't try to save me"
She's a woman in love
And he's gonna break her heart to pieces
She don't wanna see
She's a woman in love, but it's not me
Well alright, do what you want
Don't try to talk, don't say nothing
She used to be the kind of woman
You have and you hold, she could understand the problem
She let the little things go
She's a woman in love
And he's gonna break her heart to pieces
But she don't wanna know
She's a woman in love, she can't let go
Time after time, night after night
She would look up at me
And say she was lonely
I don't understand the world today
I don't understand what she needed
I gave her everything she threw it all away
On nothin'
I know you're walkin' down a lonely street
I know you can't get out of the heat
Baby, it's alright, don't have a wasted life
I know you have to feel a little used up
And no one can give you enough
Baby, hold on tight
Don't have a wasted life
I love you too much
Don't have a wasted life
I love you too much
Don't have a wasted life
Don't have a wasted life
They give it to you from the time you're born
You keep tryin' to make one more score
Maybe wrong or right, you gotta stand and fight
So when you're lonely and you feel let down
You can call me, I'll come around
And treat you nice
Don't have a wasted life
I love you too much
Don't have a wasted life
I love you too much
They give it to you from the time you're born
The summer's got to put the pressure on
Maybe wrong or right, you gotta stand and fight
So when you're lonely and you feel let down
You can call me, I'll come around
And treat you nice
Don't have a wasted life
I love you too much
Don't have a wasted life
I love you too much
Don't have a wasted life
I love you too much
Don't have a wasted life
We gotta get to a higher place
And we gotta leave by night
Before that river takes us down
We gotta find some place that's dry
We gotta run like we've never run
Or we're gonna lose the light
(Chorus)
[But] if we don't get to a higher place and find somebody
Can help somebody, might be nobody no more
Well, I fool myself and I don't know why
I thought we could ride this out
I was up all night making up my mind
But now I've got my doubts
I got my eye on the waterline
Trying to keep my sense of humor
(Chorus)
We gotta get to a higher place
And I hope we all arrive togheter
We gotta get to a higher place
If we want to survive the weather
I remember walking with her in town
Her hair was in the wind
I gave her my best kiss
She gave it back again
When I add up what I've left behind
I don't want to lose no more
Before all of this ever went down
In another place, another town
You were just a face in the crowd
You were just a face in the crowd
Out in the street walking around
A face in the crowd
Out of a dream, out of the sky
Into my heart, into my life
And you were just a face in the crowd
You were just a face in the crowd
Out in the street, thinking out loud
A face in the crowd
Out of a dream, out of the sky
Into my heart, into my life
And you were just a face in the crowd
You were just a face in the crowd
Out in the street, walking around
A face in the crowd
Face in the crowd
A face in the crowd
I don't want you
No more
Ain't gonna give any more
Than you give to me
I don't want you
It's too hard
Can't try any harder
Than you try for me
You're gonn a get it babe
I should've quit it babe
But you look so good
Yeah you do, you do
To think that something might change
But I was just a fool
Go
Go to somebody else
Like you do to me
I don't want you
Can't crawl
I can't crawl any further
You never crawled for me
You're gonna get it babe
I should've quit it babe
But you look so good
Yeah you do, you do
To think that something might change
But I was just a fool
You're go nna get it, You're gonna get it, You're gonna get it
Baby you're gonna get it
Baby I heard thunder
I woke up, middle of the night
Baby I saw fire
I went left, I went right
So you tell me what you want me to do
This might be over honey, it ain't through
Let me know when you're finished with me
What you want me to be
Baby you tell me
Honey you tell me
Baby I don't understand this
But that's alright, I can take a little pain
I've been winnin' and losin'
Baby I've been in and out of reach
So you tell me what you want me to do
This might be over honey, it ain't through
Let me know when you're finished with me
What you want me to be
Baby you tell me
Honey you tell me
Well you put me to your faces
And you twist me so felt I died
Yeah the last thing now you're leaving
Was I finally reali zing you lied
So you tell me what you want me to do
This might be over honey it ain't through
Let me know when you're finished with me
What you want me to be
Baby you tell me
Honey you tell me
Baby you tell me
Will you tell me?
This might sound strange
Might seem dumb
Depends on the side
That you take it in from
Depends on the time
Depends on the day
Depends on the life
Who can say
But I just want
To let you know
That I will stand
By you
Through whatever might come
Wherever you run
Will you stand by me
When the time comes
Baby do you understand
Am I making this clear
Are you tuning me out
Cause I'm comin' off weird
Well I don't care
That's alright
It's okay
I don't mind
But I just want
To let you know
That I will stand
By you
Through whatever might come
Wherever you run
Will you stand by me
When the time comes
This ain't the right time
To say what's on my mind
I know
Well I look in your eyes
And there is no real life
At all
Baby hold on
And some day soon
You'll come around
You'll know the way
That I can be found
And when your heart feels right
Seek me out
We can talk forever babe,
But, right now
But I just want
To let you know
That I will stand
By you
Through whatever might come
Wherever you run
Will you stand by me
When the time comes
By Tom Petty
You got a different kind of
Look in your eye
Something about you
That I don't recognize
These things are talked about
In quiet tones
I never saw a person
So all alone
Some momma's cryin'
Some daddy's sad
When a kid goes bad
Makes you wonder
What made him mad
When a kid goes bad
You built for innocence
You built for joy
Suddenly evil's all that
You enjoy
But if you shoot at every
One you see, well you
Can't be my friend 'cause
You might shoot at me
Some momma's cryin'
Some daddy's sad
When a kid goes bad
Makes you wonder
What made him mad
When a kid goes bad
When a kid goes bad
When a kid goes bad
Somewhere along the way
Did we let you down
Did you cry out for help and
None was around
Don't try to tell me
That you don't know the score
Are you so shut down
You can't feel anymore?
Some momma's cryin'
Some daddy's sad
When a kid goes bad
Makes you wonder
What made him mad
When a kid goes bad
Well you followed me all around New York City
Tryin' to make people think I wanted you with me
I can only hope that they didn't believe you
I can' t figure out why I got to deal with you
What are you doin' in my life?
What are you doin' in my life?
What are you doin' in my life?
I didn't ask for you
I don't know how you got my telephone number
Probably some jerk try in' to put me under
Some friend of a friend of a friend of mine
Baby who you tryin' to fool when you tell those lies?
What are you doin' in my life?
What are you doin' in my life?
What are you doin' in my life?
I didn't ask fo r you
Well this is all a little too much to believe
You're puttin' my name all around in the street
Honey where did you think this was gonna lead?
Baby will you tell me what you want from me?
Well you're the last woman in the world that thrills me
Now you got my girlfriend tryin' to kill me
Honey my friends think that I've gone crazy
Can't you figure out that you ain't my baby
What are you doin' in my life?
What are you doin' in my life?
What are you doin' in my life?
I didn't ask for you
I went walking down the Boulevard
Past the skateboards and the beggars
I was out looking in the windows
Just out walking, letting my mind roam
If she hung around too much I might take her for granted
But when I was away, she seemed an angel
The only one who really cared about me
The only one without an angle
For so long I've been lonely
Now I'm too weak to fight
I've been waiting for tonight
I've been waiting for tonight
(Good night my love, sleep tight my love)
Yes and I had a little time to kill
As I crossed the parking lot
And I was feeling lucky to have a place to go
Yeah my nerves were feeling shot
For so long I've been weary
There was no end in sight
I've been waiting for tonight
I've been waiting for tonight
(Good night my love, sleep tight my love)
Oh I've been waiting 'round
For a night like this
Yeah I felt it coming down
Since her first kiss
(Good night my love)
Yeah and I'm wrestling with my overcoat
Yeah I'm fighting with my thoughts
I'm gonna trust my intuition
I'm gonna hope I don't get lost
For some time I've been lonely
I've been too weak to fight
I've been waiting for tonight
I've been waiting for tonight
(Good night my love, sleep tight my love)
Yeah I remember you back in '72
With your David Bowie hair and your platform shoes
A part-time job, sellin' fast food
But out on the street you were nobody's fool
Baby way down deep it's the same old you
Way down deep you ain't hiding the truth
Just for a minute you had me fooled
Baby way down deep it's the same old you
Well you can walk through the city on fire
You can try and turn away from the truth
Living life like a young politician
Sure of yourself and bullet-proof
But baby,
Way down deep it's the same old you
Way down deep you ain't hiding the truth
Just for a minute you had me confused
Baby way down deep it's the same old you
We could buy a '62 Cadillac
Put a Fender amplifier in the back
Drive straight to the heart of America
Turn up to ten, let that sucker blast
Baby way down deep it's the same old you
Way down deep you ain't hiding the truth
Just for a minute you had me fooled
Baby way down deep it's the same old you
By Tom Petty
Well, you can't turn him
Into a company man
You can't turn him into a whore
And the boys upstairs
Just don't understand anymore
The top brass don't like him
Talking so much
And he won't play
What they say to play
And he don't want to change
What don't need to change
There goes the last dj
Who plays what he wants to play
And says what he wants to say
Hey, hey, hey
There goes your freedom of choice
There goes the last human voice
There goes the last dj
Some folks say they're gonna
Hang him so high
'Cause you just can't do what he did
There's some things you just can't
Put in the minds of those kids
As we celebrate mediocrity
All the boys upstairs want to see
How much you'll pay for
What you used to get for free
There goes the last dj
Who plays what he wants to play
And says what he wants to say
Hey, hey, hey
There goes your freedom of choice
There goes the last human voice
There goes the last dj
Well, he got him a station
Down in mexico
Sometimes it'll kinda come in
And i'll bust a move and
Remember how it was back then
There goes the last dj
Who plays what he wants to play
And says what he wants to say
Hey, hey, hey
There goes your freedom of choice
Baby you come knocking on my front door
Same old line you used to use before
I said, "Yeah, well what am I supposed to do?"
I didn't know what I was getting into
So you've had a little trouble in town
Now you're keeping some demon down
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around
It's hard to think about what you've wanted
It's hard to think about what you've lost
This doesn't have to be the big get even
This doesn't have to be anything at all
I know you really want to tell me good-bye
I know you really want to be your own girl
Baby, you could never look me in the eye
Yeah, you buckle with the weight of the words
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around
There's people running 'round loose in the world
Ain't got nothin' better to do
Than make a meal of some bright-eyed kid
You need someone looking after you
I know you really want to tell me good-bye
I know you really want to be your own girl
Baby, you could never look me in the eye
Yeah, you buckle with the weight of the words
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around
Stop draggin' my heart around
It didn't feel like Sunday
It didn't feel like June
When he met his silent partner
In that lonely corner room
That overlooked the marquee
Of the plaza all-adult
And he was not lookin' for romance
Just someone he could trust
And it wasn't no way to carry on
It wasn't no way to live
But he could up with it for a little while
He was worki n' on something big
Speedball rang the night desk
Said "send me up a drink"
The night clerk said "It's Sunday man...
Wait a minute, let me think
There' a little place outside of town
Might still have some wine&q; uot;
Speedball said "forget it man
Can I have an outside line?"
And it wasn't no way to carry on
It wasn't no way to live
But he could up with it for a little while
He was workin' on something big
It was Mon day when the day maids
Found the still made bed
All except the pillows
That lay stacked up
At the head
And one said "I know
I've seen his face
I wonder who he is"
The other said "probably
Just another clown
working on something big"
And it wasn't no way to carry on
It wasn't no way to live
But he could up with it for a little while
He was workin' on something big
There goes my baby, there goes my only one
I think she loves me, but she don't wanna let on
Yeah, she likes to keep me guessin', she's got me on the fence
With that little bit of myst ery, she's a complex kid
And she's always been so hard to figure out
Yeah, she always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
Sometimes at night I wait around 'til she gets out
She don't like workin', she says she hates her bo ss
But she's got me askin' questions, she's got me on the fence
With that little certain somethin', she's a complex kid
And she's always been so hard to get around
Yeah, she always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
Just a shadow of a doubt, she seldom keeps me runnin'
I'm tryin' to figure out if she's leadin' up to somethin'
And when she's dreamin', sometimes she seems depressed
But in the morning, she don't remember it
But she's got me thinkin' about it, yeah, she's got me on the fence
With that little bit of mystery she's a complex kid
And she's always been so hard to live without
Yeah, she always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
With a shadow of a doubt, a shadow of a doubt
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I can see everything tonight
I got a room where everyone
Can have a drink and forget those things
That went wrong in their life
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I ain't comin' down, I ain't comin' down
I got someone who loves me tonight
I got over a thousand dollars in the bank
And I'm all right
Look deep in the eyes of love
Look deep in the eyes of love
And find out what you were looking for
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I ain't comin' down, no I ain't comin' down
I wish I could feel you tonight, little one
You're so far away
I wanna reach out and touch your heart
Yeah like they do in those things on TV, I love you
Please love me, I'm not so bad
And I love you so
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I ain't comin' down, no I ain't comin' down
I ain't comin' down
The day fell down, the air got cold
I walked out in the street
Daydreamed for a mil e or two
Staring at my feet
Like a workin' boy, out of luck
Fallin' through the cracks
Night rolled in, I turned back home
A hard wind at my back
I'm out in the cold (out in the cold)
Body and soul (out in the cold)
Th ere's nowhere to go (out in the cold)
I'm out in the cold (out in the cold)
Well I woke up
My brain was stunned
I could come around
I reached out to grab my keys
Tumbled to the ground
I thought of you
Starry eyed
I wondered where we stand
Did I just fall from your arms
Down into your hands
I'm out in the cold (out in the cold)
Body and soul (out in the cold)
There's nowhere to go (out in the cold)
I'm out in the cold (out in the cold)
I'm out
Standin' in a doorway
I'm out
Walkin' around
Hands in my pockets
I'm out in the cold (out in the cold)
Body and soul (out in the cold)
There's nowhere to go (out in the cold)
I'm out in the cold (o ut in the cold)
They came this mornin' with a dog on a chain
They came and took my little brother away
His generation never even got a name
My momma was a rocker way back in 53
Buys them old records that they sell on T.V.
I know Chuck Berry wasn't singin' that to me
Mama,
That's all right, it's your world
Hey, this is my life
She's my girl
My li fe / your world
I watch that fortune wheel
But never get to spin it
You made me promises, I don't think you meant it
If there's some sunshine baby
I'm gonna get out in it, oh yeah
Mama,
That's all right, it's your wor ld
Hey, this is my life
She's my girl
My life / your world
I tried to leave, but the traffic had been stopped
The beach was burnin', and someone was
Throwin' rocks
They said an airplane had
Fallen in my block
Mama,
That's all right, it's your world
Hey, this is my life
She's my girl
My life / your world
By Tom Petty
If you reach back in your memory
Alittle bell might ring
'Bout a time that once existed
When money wasn't king
If you stretch your imagination
I'll tell you all a tale
About a time when everything
Wasn't up for sale
There was this cat named johnny
Who loved to play and sing
When money wasn't king
We'd all get so excited when
John would give a show
We'd raise the cash between us
And down the road we'd go
To hear him play that music
It spoke right to my soul
Every verse a diamond
Every chorus gold
The sound was my salvation
It was only everything
Before money became king
Well I ain't sure how it happened
And I don't know exactly when
But everything got bigger
And the rules began to bend
And the tv taught the people
How to get their hair to shine
And how sweet life can be
If you keep a tight behind
And they raised the cost of living
And how could we have known
They'd double the price of tickets
To go see johnny's show
So we hocked all our possesions
And we sold a little dope
And went off to rock and roll
We arrived there early
In time to see rehearsal
And john came out and lip-synched
His new lite beer commercial
And as the crowd arrived
As far as I could see
The faces were all different
There was no one there like me
They sat in golden circles
And waiters served them wine
And talked through all the music
And paid to john paid little mind
And way up in the nosebleeds
We watched him on the screen
They'd hung between the billboards
So cheaper seats could see
Johnny rock that golden circle
And all those vip's
And that music that had freed us
Became a tired routine
And I saw his face in close-up
Trying to give it all he had
And sometimes his eyes betrayed him
You could see that he was sad
And I tried to rock on with him
But I slowly became bored
Could that man on stage
With everything
Somehow need some more?
There was no use in pretending
No magic left to hear
All the music gave me
Was a craving for lite beer
As I walked out of the arena
My ears began to ring
I wanna make it b etter baby
Listen, I want to make it good again
Yes I want to make it better girl
Yeah better for you, and me
Baby wait and see
I know its been a long, long time
But its gonna be alright
No you mustn't let it drag you down
Honey, there's a lot a fools around
But anything I can do, honey
I'm gonna do it for you
I wanna make it better baby
Listen, I want to make it good again
Yes I want to make it better girl
Yeah good for you and me
Baby please believe
That anything I can do, baby I'm gonna do it for you
(Forget about me, forget about these eyes)
(Forget about me, say good-bye)
There was too much rain, too much humidity
Tell me why you did what you did to me ?
Honey you're the judge, there ain't no jury
And I'm just an innocent boy, used to bein' guilty
By Tom Petty
Madmen crawl
Across the wall
Knight gets away
Kings all fall
Queens chase men
Saints all sin
And good things
All must end
But she goes on forever
She goes on forever
Yeah, she's gonna shine
Forever
Like a diamond
In the sunlight
Big full moon
Above the road
I'm a long long way
From tomorrow
Gotta light my way
Down this highway
To get to her
'Cause she goes on forever
She goes on forever
Yeah, she's gonna shine
Forever
Like a diamond
In the sunlight
Deacons steal
And ma can't feel
If you're lonely
And behind the wheel
When the ground gives way
You have to pray
To the unknown
And hope it's real
But she goes on forever
She goes on forever
She's gonna shine forever
Like a diamond
I used to think that when this was all over
Yo might feel different 'bout me
Yeah I always knew, one of these days you' d come around
Now I wonder if dreams are just dreams
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
I'm having trouble
Letting you go
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
I'm having trouble
Letting you go
Baby look out your window
It's raining on your s ummer home
You by the fire keeping warm and dry
There's no one as honest as those in pain
Oh honey can you see me?
Will you let me inside?
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
I'm having trouble
Letting you go
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
I 'm having trouble
Letting you go
It's a restless world, uncertain times
You said hope was getting hard to find
But time rolls on, days roll by
What about the broken ones?
What about the lonely ones?
Oh honey I'm having tro uble letting you go
It's off in the distance somewhere up the road
There's some easy answer for the tears you've cried
And it makes me unhappy, makes me feel different
Do you get scared when you close your eyes?
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
I'm having trouble
Letting you go
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
I'm having trouble
Letting you go
We got a man on the moon (it ain't nothin' to me)
We got more comin' soon (it ain't nothin' to me)
Got natives in New Guinea with gold in their teeth
Might mean somethin' to you
It ain't nothin' to me
But when you dance I can go right with you
Yeah when you dance I just go right with you
We got smilin' politicians
Got songs from rich musicians
Called Tokyo long distance and the queen came for tea
Might mean somethin' to you
It ain't nothin' to me
I got a dog on my leg
I'm walking on eggs
Missionaries walking backwards
Touch 'em and they bleed
Might mean somethin' to you
It ain't nothin' to me
Everyone has a message
For avoiding the wreckage
Gypsies at home watching Jerry Falwell on TV
Might mean somethin' to you
It ain't nothin' to me
Absolutely, infinitum!
Oh yes baby that's really something!
Ha! Ha! Ha!
Yeah, that's really something!
Ha!
In the dark of the sun
Will you save me a place
Give me hope, Give me comfort
Get me to a better place
Saw you sail across a river
Underneath Orion's sword
In your eyes there was a freedom
I had never known before
Hey yeah yeah
In the dark of the sun
We will stand together
Yeah we will stand as one
Oh in the dark of the sun
Past my days of great confusion
Past my days of wondering why
Will I sail into the heavens
Constellations in my eyes
Hey yeah yeah
In the dark of the sun
We will stand together
Yeah we will stand as one
Oh in the dark of the sun
Hey yeah yeah
In the dark of the sun
We will stand together
Yeah we will stand as one
Oh in the dark of the sun
There is something little darling
That I want you to know
Honey I love you, yeah I need you
Every night, everyday goes so slow
How many more days?
I wanna see you again
Yes, I remember you smiling
I remember you feeling mighty fine
I remember your kiss, I remember your touch
I can't get you out of my mind
Little girl, how many more days?
I need to see you again
How long will that take?
I wanna see you again
Oh babe can't you see? I'll be honest with you
Please don't lie babe, please don't sm ile
Please don't play around with this heart of mine
Can't you see?
It's something I want babe
It's more than that, it's something I need
Oh little darling please be truthful, please
Be faithful, please come now to me
Oh baby-- I need to see you again
Please remember, little lover
I'll give the good to you
Please remember, my little lover
I'll be good to you--but how many more days?
'Till I can see you again--please don't make me wait
I wanna see you again
A coyote ran across the road
On the move without a home.
A flash of light reminded me of you.
This could well be your last stand.
Hold the sunlight in your hand.
Spread your fingers, feel the sand fall through.
I've done all I can do. Now it's up to you.
You're flirting with time baby
Flirting with time, but maybe,
Time baby, is catching up with you.
Shadowmen talk a real good game.
Every punchline has your name.
You cried out and no one came to you.
I've done all I can do. Now it's up to you.
You're flirting with time baby
Flirting with time, but maybe,
Time baby, is catching up with you.
Should be more to learn from this.
Can't say I know what it is.
No difference tween a hit or miss,
It's true.
I've done all I can do. Now it's up to you.
You're flirting with time baby
Flirting with time, but maybe,
Time baby, is catching up with you.
I want you to be my little lover
I want you to be my power glide
Oh, oh, oh, lttle girl, don't misunderstand me
Cuz there's a rumor going 'round
Somebody's gonna let me down
And I don't know what it's all about
Or if it's true
I'm counting on you
I want you to drive my El Dorado
I want you to fly my aeroplane
Oh, oh, oh, little girl, don't misunderstand me
Cuz there's a rumor going 'round
And I don't know what it's all about
Or if it's true
I'm counting on you
Counting on you
Well I saw your reflection in the river
And I swear I heard you in the wind
Oh, oh, oh, little girl, don't misunderstand me
Cuz there's a rumor going 'round
And I don't know what it's all about
Or if it's true
Something threw me in the dirt
Kinda got my feelings hurt
We was burnin' somewhere down the wind
I had to get up and climb that hill again
Little Lucy's such a doll
Like to climb her garden wall
But she only sees me as a friend
I got to get up and climb that hill again
I gotta bury my pride, drag this line
Over that hill one more time
Gotta get up in the morning, make my way
Over that hill again
I gotta bury my pride, drag this line
Over that hill one more time
Gotta get up in the morning, make my way
Over that hill again
Tempers flare and the words are spoken
You close one door and another opens
You hear the music and you're wondering
You got to get up and climb that hill
Get up and climb that hill
You got to get up and climb that hill again
Somewhere out my doorway
Somewhere down my block
I can hear her heartbeat
In rhythm with my clock
I want her more than diamonds
I want her more than gold
I want her more than anything
Anyone could hold
We were built to last
On until forever
The world is changing fast
Oh, But our love is built to last
She has followed me down
Along some empty str eets
She has followed me where
The rain would fall in sheets
And I know I've been changing
Changing like the wind
I was feeling burned out
I got tired of it
We were built to last
On until forever
The world is chan ging fast
Oh, But our love is built to last
Woah...
Woah...
So come to me my darling
Hold me while I sleep
I know you feel lost
But you're not in too deep
We were built to last
On until forever
The world is changing fast
Oh, But our love is built to last
Yeah our love was built to last
Some friends of mine and me stayed up all through the night
Rockin' pretty steady til l the sky went light
And I didn't go to bed, didn't go to work
I picked up the telephone, told the boss he was a jerk
Your mama don't like it when you run around with me
But we gotta hip your mama that you gotta live free
Don't need her, don't need school
You don't like your daddy, and you don't like rules
So come baby, let's go, don't you hear the rock n' roll
Playin' on the radio sounds so right
Girl you better grab hold, everybody's gotta know
Anything that' s rock n' roll fine
Oh, oh, oh, hold me little baby
I'm a little bit shakin' and a little bit crazy
But I know what I want, I want it right now
While the electric guitar is playin' way up loud
So come baby let's go don't you hear the rock n' roll
Playin' on the radio sounds so right
Girl you better grab hold, everybody's gotta know
Anything that's rock n' roll fine
Fine, fine , it's so fine
I dreamed you, I saw your face
Caught my lifeline when drifting through space
I saw an angel, I saw my fate
I can only thank God it was not too late
Over mountains I floated away
Across an ocean I dreamed her name
I followed an angel down through the gates
I can only thank God it was not too late
Sing a little song of loneliness
Sing one to make me smile
Another round for everyone
I'm here for a little while
Now I'm walking this street on my own
But she's with me everywhere I go
Yeah I found an angel, I found my place
I can only thank God it was not too late
I can only thank God it was not too late
I can only thank God it was not too late
Rickey and Dickey
Standing in the sun
Out there on that highway and the dog wouldn't run
Rickey rolled a number
Dickey raised the hood
Time we hit Daytona I was feeling pretty good
Oh, mama I'm about to give out
Oh, mama I'm about to give out
I'm Davey Crockett in a coonskin town
Oh, mama I'm about to give out
Karaoke Katie drove the crowd wild
Every time she'd sing they'd come in for miles
Curtain came up
Katie came on
Drinking like a lumberjack
And singing Delta Dawn
Oh, mama I'm about to give out
Oh, mama I'm about to give out
I'm Davey Crockett in a coonskin town
Oh, mama I'm about to give out
Yeah, I hit town hard last night
Abraham and Moses
Some other friends of mine
Moses started drinkin' he got a little rude
We woke up in the bushes
Beat to Hell and nude
Oh, mama I'm about to give out
Oh, mama I'm about to give out
I'm Davey Crockett in a coonskin town
Oh, mama, I'm about to give out
I'm Roy Rogers in a one horse town
Oh, mama I'm about to give out
I'm about to give out
I'm about to give out
Well I fought for you
I fought too hard
To do it all again babe,
Its gone to far
You never needed me
You only wanted me around
It gets me down
There's been a change,
Yeah there's been a change of heart
Said there's been a change
You push just a little too far
Made it just a little to hard
There's been a change of heart
I'll get over you
It won't take long
I've stood in your gallery
Seen what's hangin' from the wall
You were the moon and sun,
You're just a loaded gun now
It gets me down
There's been a change,
Yeah there's been a change of heart
Said there's been a change
You push just a little too far
You make it just a little to hard
There's been a change of heart
Whoa yeah, oh boy
Looks like we finally reachedthe turning point
Oh me, oh my
Looks like its time for me to kiss it good-bye,
Yeah kiss it good-bye
There's been a change,
yeah there's been a ch ange of heart
Said there's been a change
You push just a little too far
You make it just a little to hard
There's been a change of heart
Don't you hide from me baby
Shame on you

You know I do, you kno w I do
Oh you know I do, you know I do
Yeah you know I do, you know I do
Baby you know I do, you know I do
Your brains went black
When she took back her love
And put it out into the sun
The birds did fly
When the heavens all went dry
And the cigarettes were smoking by themselves
She'll do anything
She'll do anything
She'll do anything
To make you feel like an asshole
Call her name
She looks the same as you
With question-marks stretched across her skin
She dangles carrots
Makes you feel embarrassed
To be the fool you know you are
She'll do anything
She'll do anything
She'll do anything
To make you feel like an asshole
It's gonna be another hard night
You wanna take it all alone
You wann a face up to the trouble
You wanna face up to your soul
And baby you can have it anyway you want it
You just get a little lost from time to time
Sometimes it gets a little crazy somewhere down inside
But you can still change your mind
You can change your feelings
You can still change your mind
Everybody wants all the world can give 'em
Everybody wants to get all they can get
Everybody's waiting on somethin' that hasn't come yet
And you can hide it for a little while honey
You can try and just lose it for awhile
Then it's gonna do somethin' to ya somewhere down inside
But you can still change your mind
You can change your feelings
You can still change your mind
Oh and i t gets harder by the minute girl
Oh it gets harder every day
Listen to me darlin', oh you don't have to wait
It's alright
You can still change your mind
You can still change your feelings
Just hold tight, everything's gonna be alright
If you can change your mind
You can change your feeling
By Tom Petty
Take a look
At what I've got
I can't promise
You a lot
But you and me
And the road ahead
I can't save
You from yourself
You got to want it
All that's left
Is you and me
And the road ahead
Wherever that wind might blow
Wherever that river rolls
You know I will go with you
Looking over
The mountain's crown
The water roars
And tumbles down
Like you and me
And the road ahead
Wherever that wind might blow
Wherever that river rolls
You know I will go with you
Just you and me
You and I will meet again
When we're least expecting it
One day in some far off place
I will recognize your face
I won't say good-bye my friend
For you and I will meet again
I heard you singing to no one
I saw you dancing all alone
One day you belonged to me
Next day I just wouldn't know
Someday all the rules will bend
And you and I will meet again
I've got a feeling
I've got a feeling so strong
Maybe someday our paths will cross
A red-winged hawk is circling
The blacktop stretches out for days
How could I get so close to you
And still feel so far away?
I hear a vo ice come on the wind
Sayin' you and I will meet again
I don't know how, I don't know when
But you and I will meet again
You and me been over this ground
Over this ground before
I can't explain
I can't explain
I can't explain anymore
Oh it's hard to watch you go
I'm down but it won't last long
I'm down but it won't last long
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down like this
It's not the same
Over and over
Over and over again
Yeah, this is not my day
I'm down but it won't last long
I'm down but it won't last long
Half my brain has gone away
Half my brain has gone
So far away
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down again
Don't shake me up
Don't burn me out
I'm hurt and you won't let me in
Yeah, this is not my day
I'm down but it won't last long
I'm down but it won't last long
Stand back from me honey
Because I don't know what I might do next
No I'm surprised by this, frightened by this
Nothin' ever got me so out of my head, baby
We stand a chance
We stand a chance
Yeah, and I could be wrong, but you never know
We could stand the chance of a real love
Oh, God knows I love you
God knows I do,
Baby will you let me just prove it to you
Come here to me baby, come here to me now
I wanna talk to you, talk to you
And tell you somehow, that
We stand a chance
We stand a chance
Yeah, and I could be wrong, but you never know
We could stand the chance of a real love
I'm so moved, I'm so changed
My whole world is a fountain of flame
We stand a chance
We stand a chance
Yeah, and I could be wrong, but you never know
We could stand the chance of a real love
Some days are diamonds
Some days are rocks
Some doors are open
Some roads are blocked
Sundowns are golden
Then fade away
But if I never do nothing
I'm coming back some day
Cause you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down
All around your island
There's a barricade
It keeps out the danger
Holds in the pain
Sometimes you're happy
And sometimes you cry
Half of me is ocean
Half of me is sky
But you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down
And some things are over
Some things go on
Part of me you carry
And part of me is gone
But you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down
You got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down
Save a dream for me
Words hang in the air
Her demons take the dare
Above the lonely feather circles to the ground
The house don't make a sound
Turn this car around (x2)
I'm goin back
Green and gray and auburn
Gliding down the sky
The devil winks an eye
A figure in the doorway
Shouldering the blame
This ain't without a name
Turn this car around (x2)
I'm goin back (repeats)
Yeah...Hey
The king and queen are loaded
Falling off to sleep
The ground begins to creep
Rockets in the tail lights
Red burns into night
Rolling out of sight
Turn this car around (x2)
I'm goin back
Turn this car around (x2)
Her imagination ran wild
Could this really happen to me?
She could barely hold back the tears
It was too good to be true
It was too good to be true
It was too good to be true
Everything that she'd waited for
Everything that she'd dared to dream
Suddenly was outside her door
It was too good to be true
It was too good to be true
It was too good to be true
There was no talk of giving in
And just as hope was wearing thin
Her eyes were like a child again
Too good to be true
Morning on the outskirts of town
Sitting in the traffic alone
You don't know what it means to be free
It was too good to be true
In the middle of his life
He left his wife
And ran off to be bad
Boy, it was sad
But he bought a new car
Found a new bar
And went under another name
Created a whole new game
(Chorus)
And the days went by like paper in the wind
Everything changed, then changed again
It's hard to find a friend
It's hard to find a friend
Meanwhile then
His wife's boyfriend moved in and
Took over the house
Everybody was quiet as a mouse
And it changed their lives
Changed their plans
Slowly they grew apart
Boy, it would broke your heart
This one's for me, this one's for me
Not for anyone else, I need it you see
I threw all I had into the sea
Now I want a little back, this one's for me
Lover I found the mistakes I've made
Will follow me down into my grave
So much has gone by, so many to please
Well this one I'll keep, this one's for me
And you don't even know what you got
'Til it's walking away
Yeah, you don't even know what you had
'Til it laughs in your face
Some other time, some other day
We'll sing this again some other way
So much has gone by, don't know where to start
Well this one I'll keep here in my heart
And you don't even know what you want
'Til it's walking away
Yeah, you don't even know what you had
'Til it laughs in your face
This one's for me, this one's for me
Not for anyone else, I need it you see
I threw all I had into the sea
Now I want a little back, this one's for me
And you don't even know what you've got
'Til it's walking away
Yeah, you don't even know what you had
'Til it laughs in your face
Listen little baby one of these days
Your pretty head's gonna turn my way
Honey, oh baby you just wait
One of these nights you're gonna call my name
Oh yeah, one of these days
Girl you better believe, honey wait and see
Yeah, you better believe
You're gonna think about me
Your boyfrien d's gotta big red car
Got a compact disc, got a VCR
I can't do no disco dance
But I can sure love you baby if you give me a chance
Oh yeah, one of these days
Girl you better believe, honey wait and see
Yeah, you better believe
You're gonna think about me
I said oh pretty baby, is it something I've said?
Tell me why little baby,
I said why must you play with my head?
Listen little girl I said one of these days
Your pretty head's gonna turn my w ay
Yeah, one of these days, I know I'm right
You're gonna look for me in the middle of the night
Oh yeah, one of these days
Girl you better believe, honey wait and see
Yeah, you better believe
You're gonna think about me
Well the moon sank as the wind blew
The street lights slowly died
They call you the wild one, said stay 'way from her
Said she could love no one if she tried
But then somethin' I saw
In your eyes told me right away
That you were gonna have to be mine
When the strangest feeling came over me
Down inside no matter what it takes
I'll never get over how good it felt
When you finally held m e
I'll never regret
Baby those few hours
Will grow in my head
Forever
Well it's too bad, but I want you
To know I understand
Yeah, it's been a long time but I don't mind
Yeah, it's all right I understand
Beca use somethin' I saw
In your eyes told me right away
That you were gonna have to be mine
When the strangest feeling came over me
Down inside I knew right away
I'll never get over how good it felt
When you finally kissed me
I'll never regret
Baby those few hours
Will grow in my head
Forever
There was a little girl, I used t o know her
I still think about her, time to time
There was a moment when I really loved her
Then one day the feeling just died
We went straight into darkness
Out over the line
Yeah straight into darkness
Straight into nigh t
I remember flying out to London
I remember the feeling at the time
Out the window of the 747
Man there was nothin', only black sky
We went straight into darkness
Out over the line
Straight into darkness
Straight into night
Oh give it up to me I need it
Girl, I know when I see it
Baby wrong or right I need it
I don't believe the good times are over
I don't believe the thrill is all gone
Real love is a man's salvation
The weak ones fall the strong carry on
Straight into darkness
Out over the line
Yeah straight into darkness
Straight into night
By Tom Petty
He's the man who loves women
Women, women, women
He's the man who loves women
And fallin' in love every day
When he sees a senorita
It's a sure thing that he'll heed her
He's the man who loves women
Fallin' in love every day
But in the mornin'
When she wakes up
He'll be far away
Keepin' his secret safe
Hey, hey, hey
He's quite prepared to mingle
Comes on like he's single
He's the man who loves women
And falling in love's just his way
One of these days he's gonna pay
For falling in love every day
Oh stay away
Talkin' to myself again
Wondering if this travelin' is good
Is there something better we'd be doing if we could
And oh the stories we could tell
And if this all blows up and goes to hell
I can still see us sittin on the bed in some motel
Listenin' to the stories we could tell
Remember that guitar in a museum in Tennessee
And the nameplate on the glass brought back twenty melodies
And the scratches on the face
Told of all the times he fell
Singin' every story he could tell
And oh the stories it could tell
And I bet you it still rings like a bell
And I wish we could sit back on the bed in some motel
And listen to the stories we could tell
So if you're on the road tracking down here every night
And you're singin' for a livin' 'neath the brightly colored lights
And if you ever wonder why you ride this carousel
You did it for the stories you could tell
And oh the stories we could tell
And if this all blows up and goes to hell
I can still see us sittin on the bed in some motel
Listenin' to the stories we could tell
I can still see us sittin on the bed in some motel
Listenin' to the stories we could tell
Well, it was dark at midnight
There was hardly any moon
And no one really saw much
No one was really sure
But something didn't seem right
Something seemed kinda queer
The roar turned into whispers
Everyone stood there
When the sounds fit the night
Like it hiding from the light
Like strangers in the night
Strangers in the night
Well, I didn't see those shotguns
And I didn't see no knife
But I saw this crazy black guy
With a demon in his eyes
And I heard him say, "White man"
I've seen that silver cue
You don't remember me well
But I remember you
When the sounds fit the night
Like it hiding from the light
Like strangers in the night
Strangers in the night
Well, the knife just left his fingers
As the black guy took his aim
White guy's head exploded
My God, how he pained
And then everybody scattered
I heard some woman scream
"God damn you old black bastard
Well, you've blown away my dreams"
When the sound just fits the night
Like it hiding from the light
Like strangers in the night
Strangers in the night
Strangers in the night
Had to find some higher ground.
Had some fear to get around.
You can say what you don't know.
Later on won't work no more.
Last time through I hid my tracks.
So well I could not get back.
Yeah my way was hard to find.
Can't sell your soul for peace of mind.
Square one, my slate is clear.
Rest your head on me my dear.
It took a world of trouble, took a world of tears.
It took a long time to get back here.
Tried so hard to stand alone.
Struggled to see past my nose.
Always had more dogs than bones.
I could never wear those clothes.
It's a dark victory.
You won and you are so lost.
Told us you were satisfied, but it never came across.
Square one, my slate is clear.
Rest your head on me my dear.
It took a world of trouble, took a world of tears.
It took a long time to get back here.
There's a southern accent, where I come from
The young'uns call it country, the yankees call it dumb
I got my own way of talkin' but everything is done
With a southern accent where I come from
Now that drunk tank in Atlanta's just a motel room to me
Think I might go work Orlando if them orange groves don't freeze
I got my own way of workin' but everything is run
With a southern accent where I come from
For just a minute there I was dreaming
For just a minute it was all so real
For just a minute she was standing there with me
There's a dream I keep having where my mama comes to me
And kneels down over by the window and says a prayer for me
I got my own way of prayin' but everyone's begun
With a southern accent where I come from
I got my own way of livin' but everything gets done

One more night, God I've had to fight
To keep my line of sight on what's real
One more day I fear I've lost my way
I don't know how to say what I feel
Someone better hurry I'm all alone
And I keep breaking down
Breaking down, you know?
No one ever taught me to be on my own
And I keep breaking down
Breaking down, you know?
One more night my eyes reflect the light
In the distance something bright appears
One more day it's too hard to explain
What goes on in my brain is not clear
Someone better hurry I'm all alone
And I keep breaking down
Breaking down, you know?
No one ever taught me to be on my own
Yeah and I keep breaking down
Breaking down, you know?
So hold on one more night
Hold out one more day
Hold on one more night
Hold out one more day
There'll be one more night and things will be made right
Again I'll hold you tight my dear
One more day and I'll collect my pay
And soon be far away from here
She threw down her golden band
Crushed it with her feet into the sand
Took her silent partner by the hand
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah
Somewhere near the edge of town
She said she was torn and turned around
"Can you help me cast this evil down?"
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah
We'll d rive for the line
Now there's nothing to be lost
You and I will cross over
With no second thoughts
We'll drive for the line
Now there's nothing to be lost
You and I will cross over
With no second thoughts
Dreams fade hope dies hard
She cups her eyes and looks out at the stars
Says "I feel we've traveled very far"
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah
No more
No more
I ain't gonna do it no more
It used to be a big deal
But, I ain't gonna do it
If it ain't real
Big money
Big plans
You stand with a ticket in your hand
You don't play you can't win
But, I ain't gonna do it
'Til I feel it again
When I see that sun go down
My mind begins to clear
Sure was a hard time
It sure was a hard time my dear
No more
No more
I ain't gonna do it no more
It used to be a big deal
But, I ain't gonna do it
If it ain't real
No, I ain't gonna do it
If it ain't real
There's a shadow on the moon tonight
I swear I see your face
Up there with the satellites
Looking down from outerspace
Me, I'm drifting home again
Headlights in my eyes
Fighting sleep with windows down
Worn out from long goodbyes
Night driver drifting home again
Night driver drifting home again
You offered up no history
When you blew into town
You remain a mystery
No information found
I speed dial the judgment call
The near miss hits the ground
The new king hides behind the throne
Refusing to be crowned
Night driver drifting home again
Night driver drifting home again
High tide rumbles, PCH
My tire's losing track
Helicopter circling
Wiping overhead
Now I sit and count the days
And try to fill my time
There's a shadow on the moon tonight
The dollar gets a dime
Night driver drifting home again
Night driver drifting home again
I saw her today, I saw her face
It was a face I loved and I knew
I had to run away
And get down on my knees and pray
That there'd come a day
And still it begins, needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I've got to hide
Oh, I thought I was smart
I'll hold her heart
Didn't think I'd do
But know I see
She's worse to him than me
Let her go ahead, and take his love instead
And one day she will see
Just how to say please
And get down on her knees
Yeah that's how it begins
Needles and pins
I know, I know
Why can't I stop and tell myself I'm wrong,
I'm wrong, so wrong
Why can't I stand up
And tell myself I'm strong?
Because I saw her today, I saw her face
It was a face I loved and I knew
I had to run away
And get down on my knees and pray
Let there come a day
And still it begins, needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I've got to hide
Oh, like needles and pins
Needles and pins
Needles and pins
Like an inventor
He is a symbol of a new age
He glides above the realms
Of you and me
He flows through your life
And makes you feel quite small
You may sit up in your chair
He doesn't care at all
He's the man in the middle
You can tell which way he lays
He's the man in the middle
And he realises
And he realises
And he realises
Beauty pays
His gowns come from Paris
Occasionally from Rome
He can go anywhere
Say back to his home
He flows through your life
And makes you feel quite small
Flashing to the white collars
Ha, he doesn't care at all
He's the man in the middle
You can tell which way he lays
He's the man in the middle
And he realises
And he realises
And he realises
Beauty pays
Please...
He's the man in the middle
You can tell which way he lays
He's the man in the middle
And he realises
And he realises
And he realises
Beauty pays
He's the man in the middle
You can tell which way he lays
He's the man in the middle
And he realises
And he realises
And he realises
Beauty pays
Please...
When I was a young boy
I was workin' for the state
I wasn't makin' much money
I was stayin' out late
Go down at nighttime and
Play music in the bars
Take my breaks out underneath the stars
I was makin' some noise
I was a workin' boy up at the top of my voice
Sayin' "Look at me mama I'm makin' some noise"
I had to rock the boat, I had to shake the tree
To see what'd fall down on me
I thought "Maybe I can make it if I never give in
I been down before, I ain't goin' down again"
I'm makin' some noise
I been a worried boy up at the top of my voice
Sayin' "Look at me mama I'm makin' some noise"
From across the canyon a guitar plays
Through an amplifier on a long delay
It was an ol d melody I recognized the song
I had an amplifier too, so I played along
I'm makin' some noise, I'm still a working boy
Up at the top of my voice
Sayin' "Look at me mama I'm makin' some noise"
I'm makin' some noise, I been a long gone boy
Lord, please watch over
All these lost children
Born to chase the hurricane
Please shine some light down
On those who wander
Filled with hunger and pain
Please raise the wind for
All those out sailing
On an ocean alone
Lord, shine a light on
All these lost children
Far away from their home
Lord, keep an eye on
All these lost children
Swept away in the wind
Please shine some light down
On all those traveling
You think youre gonna take her away,
with your money and your cocaine,
you keep thinkin that her mind is gonna change,
but i know everything is okay,
chorus:
shes gonna listen to her heart
its gonna tell her what to do
she might need a lot of lovin
but she dont need you
you want me to think that im being used,
you want her to think its over,
you cant see it doesnt matter what you do,
buddy you dont even know her
chorus
and you just cant creep up behind her,
and you cant understand that shes my girl,
shes my girl,
Work 20 years and they'll take care of you
They'll buy you a diamond, they'll send you on a cruise
Give it all your money, give it all your time
Then wake up one morning and wonder why
Let me up
I've had enough
I believe you baby, I know you wouldn't lie
Like a dog won't bark, like a bird won't fly
Yeah pretty little baby, you're a weapon with eyes
I know what you want, but it's a surprise
Let me up--I've had enough
Yeah, yeah, bet honest with me
Honey am I what you thought I would be
You tell me you love me baby, you'll be true
I want to believe you, but I don't know why I do
I woke up this mornin', there was a car in the drive
I didn't recognize it, who was that guy?
Let me up
I've had enough
I believe you baby, I know you wouldn't lie
Like a dog won't bark, like a bird won't fly
Yeah pretty little bab y, you're a weapon with eyes
I know what you want, but it's a surprise
Let me up--I've had enough
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I tell ya, this is not
A question of humility here
When the time gets right I'm gonna pick you up
And take you far way from trouble my love
Under a big ol' sky out in a field of green
There's gotta be something left for us to believe
Oh, I await the day
Good fortune comes our way
And we ride down the kings highway
No you can't hide out in a six gun town
We wanna hold our heads up, though we gotta stay down
I don't wanna end up in a room all alone
Don't wanna end up someone that I don't even know
Lover, I await the day
Good fortune comes our way
And we ride down the kings highway
Yeah, I await the day
Good fortune comes our way
And we ride down the kings highway
Yeah, I await the day
Good fortune comes our way
Eddie waited til' he finished high school
He went to Hollywood, got a tattoo
He met a girl out there with a tattoo too
The future was wide open
They moved into a place they both could afford
He found a night club he could work at the door
She had a guitar and she taught him some chords
The sky was the limit
Into the great wide open
Under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open
A rebel without a clue
The papers said Ed always played from the heart
He got an agent and a roadie named Bart
They made a record and it went in the chart
The sky was the limit
His leather jacket had chains that would jingle
They both met movie stars, partied and mingled
Their A&R; man said "I don't hear a single"
The future was wide open
Into the great wide open
Under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open
It's good to be king, if just for a while
To be there in velvet, yeah, to give 'em a smile
It's good to get high, and never come down
It's good to be king of your own little town
Yeah, the world would swing if I were king
Can I help it if I still dream time to time
It's good to be king and have your own way
Get a feeling of peace at the end of the day
And when your bulldog barks and your canary sings
You're out there with winners, yeah, it's good to be king
Yeah I'll be king when dogs get wings
Can I help it if I still dream time to time
It's good to be king and have your own world
It helps to make friends, it's good to meet girls
A sweet little queen who can't run away
It's good to be king, whatever it pays
Excuse me if I have some place in my mind
She wore faded jeans and soft black leather
She had eyes so blue they looked like weather
When she needed me I wasn't around
That's the way it goe s, it'll all work out
There were times apart, there were times together
I was pledged to her for worse or better
When it mattered most I let her down
That's the way it goes, it'll all work out
It'll all work out eventually
Better off with him than here with me
It'll all work out eventually
Maybe better with him than here with me
Now the wind is high and the rain is heavy
And the water's rising in the levee
Still I think of her when the sun go es down
It never goes away, but it all works out
I got a hole in my head
I got a hole in my head
I'd be better off dead
I got a hole in my head
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
I'm a lover, lover, lover
You're always laughing at me
You're always laughing at me
Yeah, when nothing's really funny
You're always laughing at me
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
I'm a lover, lover, lover
I'm a lover, lover, lover
You got a pretty face
You got a pretty face
But it's such a waste
You got a pretty face
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna fight
I'm a lover, lover, lover
I'm a lover, lover, lover
I'm so hung up I'm gonna go see her tonight
I'm so hung up I can't get her out of my mind
Could it be just stars in my eyes
Could it be this won't happen twice
We're overdue for a dream come true
Long time, nothing new
We're overdue for a dream come true
She said she's going to move to California on day
Said she's going out on safari to stay
She's tired of her job and the snow
We both need somewhere to go
We're overdue for a dream come true
Long time, nothing new
We're overdue for a dream come true
I'm so hung up on her now
I'm so strung out on her now
A gift from the sun to the moon
I hope something changes soon
We're overdue for a dream come true
Long time, nothing new
We're overdue for a dream come true
We're overdue for a dream come true
Long time, nothing new
We're overdue for a dream come true
I hope you never fall in love
Hope you never get your heart broken
I hope you never fall in love
With somebody like you
I hope you never give a damn
Hope you never lose your perspective
I hope you never fall in love
With somebody like you
I wish you well
I wish you everything and more
Forgive my ignorance
I was starting to ramble on and on
Starting to ramble on and on
I hope you never need no one
Hope you treasure your independence
I hope you never fall in love
With somebody like you
I wish you well
I wish you everything and more
Forgive my ignorance
I was starting to ramble on and on
Starting to ramble on and on
I hope you never give a damn
Hope you never get your heart broken
I hope you never fall in love
With somebody like you
I hope you never fall in love
With somebody like you
Baby, can't wait, baby, gotta go
Got do a number on the late night show
Do a little song, do a little dance
Gonna make the best of her big chance
Don't really matter
If she don't or if she do
Just tryin' to make the best of
The hometown blues, blues
I got a friend, got a little girl
Said she's the best thing in the whole wide world
Said it so good, said it's unreal
It might not last but it's no big deal
Don't really matter
If she don't or if she do
Just tryin' to make the best of
The hometown blues, blues
Baby, save me, save me, save me
With your sweet smile
Honey, I really need your love
To help me kill a little bit of time
All of the girls run with the crowd
They go wild when the lights go down
They got a little money, live in a dream
Wanna be the queen of their little scene
Don't really matter
If she don't or if she do
Just tryin' to make the best of
There's something wrong, I can't get my finger on it
I must be looking over something
Sometimes at night I've had to fight with this emptiness
It's been so hard to see, there's something more than this
I'm finding out, I'm finding out
Yeah it took a little ti me to get what love was about
But honey I'm coming 'round
I'm finding out
I've had enough of all this hard core loneliness
I don't think pain is so romantic
I'm just a working man
I feel each day go by
I couldn't understan d I was too weak to fight
But I'm finding out, I'm finding out
It took a little time for me to stand up and shout
But honey I'm coming 'round, I'm finding out
I have to thank you baby, honey I must confess
You have pulled me from this river of loneliness
I'm finding out, baby I'm finding out
Yeah it took a little time to get what love was about
But honey I'm coming 'round
I'm finding out
We grew up fast
And no one seemed to notice
We grew up fast
And we grew up alone
Mom and Dad
Were never what we wanted
We grew up fast
And we grew up alone
We grew up along
Well you know who I am
So don't treat me like I'm someone else
Well you know what I am
So don't treat me like I'm someone else
You never act like that with no one else
We grew up fast
When lies were just a fact of life
We grew up mad
Cause we never had a home
We faced the past
And forgave the revolution
We grew up smashed
And we grew up alone
We grew up alone
Hey my brother
I got no fight with you
I just can't lie down
Hey my brother
I got no fight with you
I just can't lie down
No, I just can't ride down
I just can't ride down
Well you know who I am
So don't treat me like I'm someone else
Well you know what I am
So don't act like I'm something else
Well you know who I am
So don't treat me like I'm someone else
You know where I am
So don't act like I'm somwhere else
You never talk like that to no one else
You never scream like that for no one else
You never suck like that for no one else
I remember when you were his dog
I remember you under his thumb
Yeah baby, when he would call
Every time, you had to come
Hey, baby, you're a free girl now
Hey, baby, you're a free girl now
I remember when he was your boss
I remember him touching your butt
I remember you counting your blessings
Yeah honey, you had to keep your mouth shut
Hey baby, you're a free girl now
Yeah baby, you're a free girl now
Yeah, well all right
Honey, put your sugar down
Dazzle, dazzle the moon above
Lay your victim down
No longer will you be a slave
No longer will you have to crawl
No longer will you suffer
No longer will you stall
One day you'll live for a reason
One day you'll be gone, no more
When you walk from the table
No longer, will you bow down
Hey baby, you're a free girl now
Hey baby, you're a free girl now
Strange voice on the telephone
Tellin' me I better leave you 'lone
Why won't somebody say what's goin' on
Oh, oh, I think I've been through this before
Looks like I've been fooled again
Looks like I'm the fool again
I don't like it, I don't like it
You never said you had no longer to
I need to know 'bout it if you do
If two is one, I might as well be three
It's good to see you think so much of me
Looks like I've been fooled again
Looks like I'm the fool again
I don't like it, I don't like it
You never said you had no longer to
I need to know 'bout it if you do
If two is one, I might as well be three
It's good to see you think so much of me
Looks like I've been fooled again
Looks like I'm the fool again
I don't like it, I do n't like it
The reason why, oh I can't say
I have to let you go babe, and right away
After what you did I can't stay on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone
Baby for a long time you had me believe
That your love was all mine
And that's the way it would be
But I didn't know that you were puttin' me on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone
Now I gotta say that it's not like before
And I'm not gonna play your games anymore
After what you did I can't stay on
And I'll probably feel a whole let better
When you're gone
Headed back down south
Gonna see my daddy's mistress
Gonna buy back her forgivness
Pay off every witness
One more time down south
Sell the family headstones
Drag a bag of dry bones
Make good on my back loans
So if I come to your door
Let me sleep on your floor
I'll give you all I have
And a little more
Sleep late down south
Look up my former mentors
Live off yankee winters
Be a landlord and a renter
Create myself down south
Impress all the women
Pretend I'm samuel clemens
Wear seersucker and white linens
So if I come to your door
Let me sleep on your floor
I'll give you all I have
And a little more
Spanish moss down south
Spirits cross the dead fields
Mosquitoes hit the windshield
All document remain sealed
So if I come to your door
Let me sleep on your floor
I'll give you all I have
And a little more
I'll give you all I have
When you complain and criticize
I feel like nothing in your eyes
It makes me feel like givin' up
Because my best just ain't good enough
Girl I want to provide for you
And do the things you want me to
But oh, oh no
Don't bring me down
Said darlin', darlin', darlin', darlin'
Oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
The sacrifices I will make
I'm ready to give as well as take
Something I need is your respect
Something I can't take is your neglect
And more than anything I need your love
Until it's easy to rise above
And oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
Said darlin', darlin', darlin', don't hurt me
Oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
When you complain and criticize
I feel like nothing in your eyes
It makes me feel like givin' up
Because my best just ain't good enough
Girl I want to provide for you
Do the things that you want me to
But oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
Said darlin', darlin', darlin', I'm beggin' you
Oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
Said darlin', darlin', darlin', darlin'
Oh, please, oh, no
Don't bring me down
Darlin', darlin', stop it, darlin'
Oh, oh, no
Don't bring me down
Well we come with what was on our backs
Yeah, when the lea ves had died and all turned black
Back when the wind was cold and blew them 'round
When we laid our blankets on the ground
Yeah and I woke up feelin' hungry
Lookin' straight into the sun, and left a cold night on the ground
Like a dog on the run
I fell overboard and washed up on the beach
Yes, let the waves and sand roll over me
I was helped to the home of a young bleached blonde
Who said 'honey I discovered early in life there's ways of getting
Anything I want , some of us are different
It's just something in our blood, there's no need for explanations
We're just dogs on the run'
The room was painted blue and gray
All my meals were served on a silver tray
Oh she would laugh, and light m y cigarettes
She said 'honey, ain't it funny how a crowd gathers around
Anyone living life without a net?
And how they'll beg you for the answers
But it won't ever be enough, there's no way you could ever tell 'em
It's just dogs on the run'
Every woman and every man,
Knows the feeling so well
Those times when the heart just can't understand,
The times when you never can te ll
So deliver me, deliver me
Baby take this heart, set it free
Take this chance, take this dream
Baby take this heart
Deliver me
I was born with something down inside of me
And it's carried me over, delivered me
Y eah delivered me, I'm standing' at your gate
Just out of reach of the hands of fate
So deliver me, deliver me
Baby take this heart, set it free
Take this chance, take this dream
Baby take this heart
Deliver me
Sometim es I wonder if this is worth the trouble
Sometimes I wonder if this is worth the fight
I never have made my mind up about it
I've just decided to let it all ride
She don't care about time
Time gets in her way
Fades into the wind
Days roll into days
She's got nothing to hide
And she hides it so well
Keeps broken dreams
To fix up and sell
Damaged by love
Damaged by love
So young
And damaged by love
There's rain on the road
And the faithful have gone
In a crowd all alone
Walking 'round in a song
Damaged by love
Damaged by love
So young
And damaged by love
Eyes down at my door
And she holds out her hand
I love you so deep
But you can't understand
Damaged by love
Damaged by love
So young
And damaged by love
So young
When your baby leaves you all alone
And nobody calls you on the phone
Don't you feel like cryin'
Don't you feel like cryin'
Come on baby, cry to me
When you're all alone in your lonely room
And there is nothing, but the smell of her perfume
Don't you feel like cryin'
Don't you feel like cryin'
Come on baby, cry to me
Nothing can be sadder than a glass of wine alone
Loneliness--loneliness just a a waste of your time
But your won't ever have to walk alone
Say honey, just breakdown--breakdown and cry
When your're waiting in your lonely room
And there's nothin' but the smell of her perfume
Don't you feel like cryin'
Don't you feel like cryin'
Come on baby, cry to me
Come on baby, cry to me
Come on baby, cry, cry, cry, cry
Come on down to my house
Come on down to my house
I'll bet your ass you have a real good time
Come on down to my house
Well bring your baby sister
Bring your baby sister
It's ages since I kissed her
Come on down to my house
Bring your baby sister
Bring your baby sister
Ooh how I missed her
Come on down to my house
Come on down to my house
Come on down to my house
Come on down to my house
Baby come on down to my house
Come on down to my house
Come on down to my house
Well I fought for you
I fought too hard
To do it all again babe,
It's gone too far
You never needed me
You only wanted me around
It gets me down
CHORUS
There's been a change,
Yeah there's been a change of heart
Said there's been a change
You push just a little too far
You make it just a little to hard
There's been a change of heart
I'll get over you
It won't take long
I've stood in yer gallery
Seen what's hangin' from the wall
You were the moon and sun,
Yer just a loaded gun now
It gets me down
CHORUS
Whoa yeah, oh boy
Looks like we finally found the turning point
Oh me, oh my
Looks like it's time for me to kiss it goodbye, yeah kiss it goodbye
CHORUS
By Tom Petty
Well you may take my money
You may turn off my microphone
But you can't steal
What you can't feel
Can't stop the sun from shining
Down and down and down
And you may think you control things
But there'll be more just like me
Who won't give in
Who'll rise again
Can't stop the world from turning
'Round and 'round and 'round
Hey mister business man
Be sure to wash your hands
Be careful where you stand
'Cause life goes on and on and on
And you may think it's all over
But there'll be more just like me
Who won't give in
Who'll rise again
Can't stop a man from dreaming
It's alright if you love me
It's alright if you don't
I'm not afraid of you running away,
Honey, I get the feeling you wont
There is no sense in pretending
Your eyes give you away
Something inside you is feeling like I do
We've said all there is to say
Breakdown, go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown honey take me through the night
Breakdown now I'm standing here can't you see
Breakdown it's all right
It's all right
There's some friends that I know
Living in this town and I've come far to see them.
Gonna track em' down.
They live in a brick house painted white and brown.
Left a tip for the maid and I packed up my guitar,
dropped my key on the counter, rented a car.
Gonna hook up with em' later and go hit the bars.
I need a big weekend. Kick up the dust.
Yeah a big weekend.
If you don't run, you rust.
Well I may shake your hand but I won't know your name.
The joke in your language don't come out the same.
There's times when I'm down and there's nothing to blame.
I need a big weekend.
Kick up the dust.
Yeah a big weekend.
If you don't run, you rust.
I can work, I can travel, sleep anywhere, cross every border with nothing to
declare.
You can look back babe, but it's best not to stare.
I need a big weekend.
Kick up the dust.
Yeah a big weekend.
I dreamed you, I saw your face
Caught my lifeline when drifting through space
I saw an angel, I saw my fate
I can only thank God it was not too late
Over mountains I floated away
Across an ocean I dreamed her name
I followed an angel down through the gates
I can only thank God it was not too late
Sing a little song of loneliness
Sing one to make me smile
Another round for everyone
I'm here for a little while
Now I'm walking this street on my own
But she's with me everywhere I go
Yeah I found an angel, I found my place
I can only thank God it was not too late
I can only thank God it was not too late
I can only thank God it was not too late
Trouble blew in on a cold dark wind
It came without no warnin'
And that big ol' house went up for sale
They were on the road by morning
The days went slow into the changing season
Out in the col d for all the wrong reasons
Well she grew up hard, and she grew up fast
In the age of television
And she made a vow to have it all
It became her new religion
Down in her soul, it was an act of treason
Down they go, for al l the wrong reasons
Where the sky begins the horizon ends
Despite the best intentions
And a big old man goes up for sale
He becomes his own invention
The days go slow, into the changing season
Bought and sold for all the wrong reasons
Down they go for all the wrong reasons
Your daddy was a Sgt. Major
You didn't wanna, but he made you
Wipe his brass from time to time
It left a picture in your mind
You know? You know?
You want it all, you want it all,
All or nothin'
Here am I a fallen arrow
My load is wide, my street is narrow
My skin is thicker, my heart is tougher
I don't mind workin', but I'm scared to suffer
You know? You know?
You want it all, you want it all,
All or nothin'
Sweet chariots of L.A. swing low
At twilight time the smog makes a rainbow
So keep one eye on the weather
You had it good, you wanted better
You know? You know?
You want it all, you want it all,
All or nothin'
I'm all mixed up, I'm all mixed up about,
All mixed up about you
And no I can't find no reason
To explain the way that I feel
I remember things being clearer
At one t ime things were more real
I'm all mixed up, I'm all mixed up about,
All mixed up about you
I'm not lookin' for sympathy
I'm just frightened by this apathy
Like footsteps way in back of me
On a narrow street of stone
And if time will answer all questions
Then perhaps a film will be shown
Everyone could mail-order tickets
Yeah, you could sell a lot of shirts
For the last picture show
I'm all mixed up, I'm all mixed up about,
All mixed u p about you
Instrumental
She laughed in my face, told me good-bye
Said "Don't think about it, you can go crazy
Any thing can happen, anything can end
Don't try to fight it, don't try to save me"
She's a woman in love
And he's gonna break her heart to pieces
She don't want to see
She's a woman in love, but it's not me
Well all rig ht, do what you want
Don't try to talk, don't say nothin'
She used to be the kind of woman
You have and you hold, she could understand the problem
She let the little things go
She's a woman in love
And he's gonna break her hea rt to pieces
But she don't wanna know
She's a woman in love, she can't let go
Time after time, night after night
She would look up at me and say she was lonely
I don't understand what she needed
I gave her everything, she threw it all away on nothin'
She's a woman in love
I'm not much on mystery
Yeah you gotta be careful what you dream
I thought this might pass with time
Yeah I thought I was satisfied
But oh baby let me tell you, I got a thing about you
Baby let me tell you, I got a thing about you
It don't matter what you say
It don't matter what you do
I , I, I, got a thing about you
Somewhere deep in the middle of the night
Lovers hold each other tight
Whisper in their anxious ears
Words of love that disappear
But oh baby let me tell you, I got a thing about you
Baby let me tell you, I got a thing about you
It don't matter what you say
It don't matter what you do
I, I, I, got a thing about you
Baby you own some strange control over me
Yeah it's so wild it hypnotizes me
Raise Both Hands
But oh baby let me tell you, I got a thing about you
Baby let me tell you, I got a thing about you
It don't matter what you say
It don't matter what you do
I, I, I, got a thing about you
Well if he don't wanna talk leave him alone
If he don't wanna talk leave him alone
He's a self-made man, he did it on his own
Now some folks say there's a dangerous side
Some folks say he's got a dangerous side
He's a self-made man, he knows about pride
So help me baby, look what love can do
It scares me baby, does it scare you too?
So help me baby, look what love can do
It scares me baby, does it scare you too?
Well some folks say it was a women he knew
Some folks say it was a women he knew
He's a self-made man, he knows how to lose
So help me baby, look what love can do
I'm for standin' up, I'm for breakin' free
I don't want fate handed down to me
Yeah I'm for movin' on, try another town
Time ain't changin' nothin', take a look around
Oh, I'm lost in a one story town
Where everything's close to the ground
Yeah the same shit goes down
Nothing turns around
It's a one story town
She was only seventeen
But I held her to her word
Had to push her luck
Thought she couldn't burn
No it didn't hurt me
When she had to leave
She had a far away feeling
Wasn't part of me
Oh, I'm lost in a one story town
Where everything's close to the ground
Yeah the same shit goes down
Nothing turns around
It's a one story town
I remember her standing in the tall grass and cattails
Away from the windows at the end of the day
watching the men from the landing in the
tall hats and coat-tails
She'd never look different,
But something would change
A mind with a heart of its own
Yeah a mind with a heart of its own
Well the man out to end us had a hurricane business
He'd raise them from babies all by himself
but his teen-age accountant had become surrounded
he drank up the party and everyone left
A mind with a heart of its own
Yes a mind with a heart of its own
Well I been to Brooker and I been to Micanopy
I been to St. Louis too, I been all around the world
I've been over to your house
And you've been over sometimes to my house
I've slept in your tree house
my middle name is Earl
A mind with a heart of its own
A mind with a heart of its own
Yeah a mind with a heart of its own
There was a girl I knew
She said she cared about me
She tried to make my world
The way she thought it should be
Yeah we were desperate then
To have each other to hold
But love is a long, long road
There were so many times
I would wake up at noon
With my head spinning 'round
I would wait for the moon
And give her one more chance
To try and save my soul
But love is a long, long road
Yeah it was hard to give up
Some things are hard to let go
Some things are never enough
I guess I only can hope
For maybe one more chance
To try and save my soul
But love is a long, long road
Well I won't back down, no I won't back down
you could stand me up at the gates of hell
but I won't back down
Gonna stand my ground, won't be turned around
and I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
gonna stand my ground and I won't back down
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
hey I will stand my ground
and I won't back down
Well I know what's right, I got just one life
in a world that keeps on pushin' me around
but I'll stand my ground and I won't back down
Hey baby there ain't no easy way out
hey I will stand my ground
and I won't back down
No, I won't back down
She's a good girl, loves her mama
loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
loves horses and her boyfriend too
It's a long day livin' in Reseda
there's a freeway runnin' through the yard
and I'm a bad boy, 'cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart
And I'm free, I'm free fallin'
All the vampires walkin' through the valley
move west down Ventura Blvd.
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
All the good girls are home with broken hearts
And I'm free, I'm free fallin'
I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
I wanna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for awhile
And I'm free, I'm free fallin'
I ain't ever gonna let you down
All you gotta do is trust me
I would never make you some clown
baby why won't you trust me
You give up so easily, I don't know why you can't see
I'm depending on you, don't let me down
I'm depending on you
baby if you can't change the world
maybe you should just change yourself
you used to be such a sweet young girl
why you wanna be someone else
you give up so easily
I don't know why you can't see
I'm depending on you
is it too late now
I'm depending on you
Goodnight baby, sleep tight my love
May God watch over you from above
Tomorrow I'm workin' what would I do
I'd be lost and lonely if not for you
So close your eyes
We're alright for now
I've spent my life travelin'
I've spent my life free
I could not repay all you've done for me
So sleep tight baby
Unfurrow your brow
And know I love you
We're alright for now
We're alright for now
Two gunslingers, walked out in the street
And one said, "I don't wanna fight no more"
And the other gunslinger thought about it
And he said, "Yeah, what are we fighting for?"
I'm taking control of my life
I'm taking control of my life
I'm taking control of my life now
Right now, oh yeah
Well the crowd that assembled for the gun fight were let down
Everyone hissed and booed
And a stranger told his Mrs. that's the last one of these gunfights
You're ever gonna drag me to
I'm taking control of my life
I'm taking control of my life
I'm taking control of my life now
Right now, oh yeah
Well the two gunslingers went riding out of town and
Were never heard from no more
And there ain't been a gun fight for a long time, maybe never
But nobody knows for sure
I'm taking control of my life
I'm taking control of my life
I'm taking control of my life now
Right now, oh yeah, now, right now, oh yeah
Black cloud on the sun, I turned my collar up
And walked from your door up to the county road
Oh yeah, what luck, the timings been rough on us
Right then, oh boy, we hit the turning point
Three or four years or more my life was on the floor
Blind faith, hangin' in hungry and tired of it
Oh yeah, better luck, it takin' over us
But right now, oh boy, we've hit the turning point
She's had to follow me up and down these empty streets
Whiskey on her breath tryin' to give the world a test
Oh yeah, better luck, it takin' over us
Right now, oh boy, we've hit the turning point
Yeah right now, oh boy, we've hit the turning point
Yeah right now, oh boy, we've hit the turning point
She graduated high school I bought her a trailer
In a little park by the side of the road
I could've had the army, I could've had the navy
But no, I had to go for a mobile home
Yeah I guess, I gave it all for you, babe
There wasn't room in that trailer for two, babe
I kept up with my interest, I kept up with my payments
She never said goodbye, I never asked why
Man, we used to dance to Lynyrd Skynyrd
Boy she used to look so good at times
But I guess, I gave it all to you, babe
There's not room in no trailer for two, babe
Well I guess, I gave it all for you, babe
Living free is gaining on me
Can't keep ahead of my dreams
My relief turned out a thief
Smooth as rocks in the stream
This old town is a sad affair
You be glad you're not there
It ties your hands, it spikes your drink
I'd say more, but I can't think
Lazy Jim took a bottle with him
Tried to flag down a train
Left a note, couldn't read what he wrote
A light came on in my brain
This old town is a sad affair
You be glad you're not there
It ties your hands, it spikes your drink
I'd say more, but I can't think
The hills are gold, mornings are cold
Don't know a soul on the street
I keep to myself like everyone else
Nobody says much to me
Go to bed, fight thoughts in my head
In the two in between wake and sleep
Rats to kill, contracts to fill
It's on ice, but it won't keep
This old town is a sad affair
You be glad you're not there
It ties your hands, it spikes your drink
I'd say more, but I can't think
This old town is a sad affair
You be glad you're not there
It ties your hands, it spikes your drink
Well, The Golden Rose sailed with a broken man
Going south
Got on board with a woman to lead him around
By the mouth
And it's goodbye, Golden Rose
Yeah, it's goodbye, Golden Rose
Well, the captain who swears if he speaks at all
Wears a gun
Got a first maid who's never quite on the ball
For his son
And it's goodbye, Golden Rose
Yeah, it's goodbye, Golden Rose
Wish I was back in her arms again
Wish I was holding her tight
Wish I was back in her arms again
Safe from the night
She stood on the shore and she waved to me
'Come back home'
Many a night I would think of her
All alone
And it's goodbye, Golden Rose
Well I wish I had a dollar
For every piece of my broken heart
Yeah if they gave out a quarter
For every thread of my shattered life
Baby you'd make me a millionaire
But it wouldn't repair the damage that you've done
The damage that you've done
The damage that you've done to me
Well I wish I was a blue bird
Honey I'd just fly away
And look down over my shoulder
At the country down below
Baby you could make a king
It wouldn't mean a thing
Compare the damage that you've done
The damage that you've done
The damage that you've done to me
Well I wish I knew you better
Yeah I wish I was close to you
Then maybe I would understand exactly what
I never did do, honey what's wrong? What's wrong?
Yeah I wish you kinda liked me
I wish you'd spare my pain
Why do you want to destroy me baby?
What did I do wrong?
Baby I could be a millionaire and I wouldn't care
After the damage that you've done
The damage that you've done
The damage that you've done to me
Honey you would make me a king
It wouldn't mean a thing
After the damage that you've done
The damage that you've done
The damage that you've done to me
Yes I'm talkin' about the damage that you've done
The damage that you've done
She probably works in a restaurant
That's what her momma did
But I don't know if she ever really
Could put up with it
Or maybe she sings in a nightclub
'Cause sometimes she used to sing
But I don't know if it ever
Amounted to anything
But listen honey, wherever you are tonight
I wish you the best of everything, in the world
And honey, I hope you found
Whatever you were looking for
Yeah and it's over before you know it
It all goes by so fast
Yeah, the bad nights last forever
And the good nights don't ever seem to last
And man, we never had the real thing
But sometimes we used to kiss
Back when we didn't understand
What we were caught up in
So listen honey, wherever you are tonight
I wish you the best of everything, in the world
And honey, I hope you found
Whatever you were looking for
Yeah baby, wherever you are tonight
I wish you the best of everything, in the world
And honey, I hope you found
I don't belong to no one
I don't belong at all
Got my face in the corner
Got my back to the wall
And pretty baby I'm restless, restless
Restless through and through
I'm restless, restless
You look restless too
I'm a hair trigger lover
And I can't face up to nothing
I'm impatient with the wind
But I'm waiting here for somethin'
Pretty baby I'm restless, restless
Restless through and through
I'm restless, restless
You look restless too
Restless sleep, twisted dreams
Moving targets, silent screams
Restless city, restless street
Restless you , restless me
I'm a face at the window
I'm a black satin sheet
And I can't stay warm
I stay out in the street
And pretty baby I'm restless, restless
Restless through and through
I'm restless, restless
We need peace in L.A., what happened was wrong
We all feel betrayed, but we got to be strong
If the powers that be let evil go free
You must understand, don't play into their hand
We need peace in L.A., peace in L.A.
Don't need beating and shouting, don't need burning and looting
Tonight we all pray, that our children are safe
There's hurt and frustration, there's a hard realization
But how can we help if we steal from ourselves?
We need peace in L.A., peace in L.A.
We need peace in L.A., peace in L.A.
Stay cool, don't be a fool
I'm the nightwatchman
I make the rounds

You got to think about the pros and cons
You could be right could be wrong
I'm the nightwatchman
I am security

But listen, my life's worth more than the minimum wage
I'm the nightwatchman
I am security
I'm the nightwatchman
I saw her today
I saw her face it was a face I love
And I knew I had to run away
And get down on my knees and pray that they go away
Still it begins
Needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide
Oh, I thought I was smart
I stole her heart
Didn't think I do but now I see
She's worse to him than me
Let her go ahead
Take his love instead
And one day she will see
Just how to say please
And get down on her knees
Oh, that's how it begins
She'll feel those needles and pins
Oh no, oh no
Why can't I stop and tell myself I'm wrong, I'm wrong, so wrong?
Why can't I stand up and tell myself I'm strong?
Because I saw her today
I saw her face, it was a face I love
And I knew I had to run away
And get down on my knees and pray that they go away
Still it begins
Needles and pins

As the sun beats down on Casa Dega
And the moon pulls the tide and the tide brings night
But night is more than just a night in Casa Dega
Oh baby, now I think I'm starting to believe
The things that I've heard
'Cause tonight in Casa Dega
I hang on every word
That she said to me as she holds my hand
And reads the lines of a stranger
Yeah, and she knows my name, yeah, she knows my plan
In the past, in the present and for the future
Oh honey, now I think I'm starting to believe
The things that I've heard
Cause tonight in Casa Dega
I hang on every word
That she said
Baby, fools pay the price of a whisper
In the night in Casa Dega
Time rolls by, night is only night
Can I save you?
Well I heard you in the back room
Your friends had a laugh on me
Passed my name through the cantina
Yeah, your face was hard to read
Something in your demeanor
Should've given you away
But I was desperate for a friend
I was gettin' used to makin' mistakes
Well I went down hard
Like Billy the Kid
Yeah, I went down hard
Yeah, but I got up again
I remember you my baby
I remember you so well
And your house out in the suburbs
You had your wishing well
They say be careful who you believe
Be careful who you trust
Did you smile when you pulled the trigger
That dropped me in the dust
Well I went down hard
Like Billy the Kid
Yeah, I went down hard
Yeah, but I got up again
Alright

Cotton fever in a sweat

For the rest of my days, the rest of my nights
What can I do but love you?
Summertime falls on the house in the woods
Back by the power lines
I ain't got a neighbor for nine or ten miles
Back in the tall pines
And hey, now baby, what can I do?
What am I goin' to do but trust you?
The rest of my nights, the rest of my days
What can I do but love you?
Hey now baby, what can I do?
Waht am I goin' to do but love you
For the rest of my days, the rest of my nights
Come on now, give me some sugar
Give me some sugar, little honey bee
Don't be afraid, not gonna hurt you
I wouldn't hurt my little honey bee
Don't say a word, 'bout what we're doin'
Don't say nothin' little honey bee
Don't tell your momma, don't tell your sister
Don't tell your boyfriend, little honey bee
She like to call me king bee
She like to buzz 'round my tree
O call her honey bee
I'm a man in a trace
I'm a boy in short pants
When I see my honey bee
And I've got something to say
Look here now, peace in the valley
Peace in the valley with my honey bee
Don't say a word, 'bout what we're doin'
Don't say nothin' little honey bee
She give me her monkey hand
And a Rambler sedan
I'm the king of Milwaukee
Her juju beads are so nice
She kissed my third cousin twice
I'm the king of Pomona
I remember you so clearly
The first one through the door
I return to find you drifting
Too far from the shore
I remember feeling this way
You can lose it without knowing
You wake up and you don't notice
Whcih way the wind is blowing
(Chorus)
Don't fade
Don't fade on me
You were the one who made things different
You were the one who took me in
You were the one thing I could count on
Above all you were my friend
(Chorus)
Well your clothes hang on a wire
And the sun is overhead
But today you are too weary
To even leave your bed
Was it love that took you under?
Or did you know too much?
Was it something you could picture?
But never could quite touch?
Well, it can get you in the back, boy
Or you can lie around in roses
Or maybe walk around wonderin'
You know, goin' through the motions
Hey, ain't love strange?
Hey, ain't love strange?
Boy, talk about changes
Ain't love strange?
Well, it can make you string barb-wire
Around your little piece of ground
Yeah, for emotional protection
Oh, but it's too late now
Hey, ain't love strange?
Hey, ain't love strange?
Boy, talk about changes
Ain't love strange?
Some keep tryin' it
Giving and denying it
And I don't know why it is
I guess you never quit
Tryin' to make sense of it
Oh, 'cause it can feel like perfection
But never all the time
But you don't wanna be alone again
Oh, my, my
Hey, ain't love strange?
Hey, ain't love strange?
Boy, talk about changes
Ain't love strange?
Ain't love strange?
Hey, ain't love strange?
Boy, talk about lonely
All down the street they're standin' in line
With white lipstick and one thing on their mind
Hey little freak with the lunch pail purse
Underneath th e paint you're just a little girl
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo, dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo
Cute little dropout, how come you pack a rod
Is your mother in a clinic ? has your father got no job ?
Sometimes you're so impulsive
You shaved off all you're hair
You look like Boris Karloff and you don't even care
You're dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do is
Dance down at the Zombie Zoo
She disappears at sunrise, I wonder where
She goes until the night
Comes fallin' down again
She shows up with her friends half-alive
You can make a big impression or
Go through life unseen
You might wind up restricted and over seventeen
It's so hard to be careful, so easy to be lead
Somewhere beyond the pavement
You'll find the living dead
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo, dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo
Yeah dancin at the Zombie Zoo
Some days are diamonds
Some days are rocks
Some doors are open
Some roads are blocked
Sundowns are golden
Then fade away
And if I never do nothing
I'll get you back some day
Cause you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down
And all around your iland
There's a barricade
It keeps out the danger
It holds in the pain
Sometimes you're happy
Sometimes you cry
Half of me is ocean
Half of me is sky
But you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down
And some things are over
Some things go on
And part of me you carry
Part of me is gone
But you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down
Baby you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And I can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down
Hey, look here, what's all this?
There's a car made just for me
To own that car would be a luxury
A brand new convertible is out of my class
I'll buy that car and I'll go ridin' around
But that ain't no harm in thinking to myself
That's fine lookin' man, it's something else
Hey, look here, what's all this?
I never thought I'd see this look before
But here I am knockin' on her door
Car's out front and it's all mine just a '41 Ford, '69
And that ain't stopping me from thinking to myself
It's okay, baby, it's something else
Ahh, you're really rockin', man
Hey, look here, I guess it's right
I see that girl walking down the street
Ahh, she's the sweet, I'd like to meet
I guess, I'll ask if she'll come for a walk
Maybe we'll go walking in the park
And then I know right to myself
That's she's okay, baby, yes, I said, she's somethin' else
Oh, she's somethin' else
You need rhino skin
If you're gonna begin
To walk
Through this world
You need elephant balls
If you don't want to crawl
On your hands through this world
Oh my love if I reveal
Every secret I've concealed
How many thoughts would you steal
How much of my pain would you feel
You need eagles wings
To get over things
That make no sense
In this world
You need rhino skin
If you're gonna pretend
You're not hurt
by this world
If you listen long enough
You can hear my skin grow tough
Love is painful to the touch
Must be made of stronger stuff
You need rhino skin
To get to the end
Of the maze
Through this world
You need rhino skin
Or you're gonna give in
To the needles and the pins
The arrows of sin
The evils of men
Here we go
I've been wrapped up in confusion
I've been tied down to my bed
Sufferin' some illusion
I'm out of my fuckin' head
It's insane to my brain, I ran away
And now, hey, hey, hey
I'm a zero
(Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero)
Ohh from outer space
But I know you think I'm jokin'
I don't mean the things I say
Like I could but I won't
If I would anyway
It's insane to my brain, I ran away
Yea now, hey, hey, hey
I'm a zero
(Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero)
Ohh from outer space
C'mon, ooo
You think that you're above me
You think that you're so big
When I saw you kick that dog
When the wind blew off your wig
It's insane to my brain, I ran away
Well, hey, hey, hey
I'm a zero
(Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero)
From outer space
Yea, ha ha, ooo
Well, hey, hey, hey
I'm a zero
(Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero)
Ohh from outer space
Tonight we ride, right or wrong
Tonight we sail, on a radio song
Rescue me, should I go down
If I stay too long in trouble town
(Chorus)
Oh, yeah, you wreck me, baby
You break me in two
But you move me, honey
Yes, you do
Now and again I get the feeling
Well if I don't win, I'm a gonna break even
Rescue me, should I go wrong
If I dig too deep, if I stay too long
(Chorus)
I'll be the boy in the corduroy pants
You be the girl at the high school dance
Run with me, wherever I go
Just play dumb, whatever you know
you better watch what you say
you better watch what you do to me
don't get carried away
girl if you can do better than me
go...yeah, go
but remember, good love is hard to find,
good love is hard to find,
you got lucky babe
you got lucky babe, when I found you
you put a hand on my cheek
and then you turned your eyes away
if it don't feel complete, if I don't take you all of the way
then go...yeah, go
but remember, good love is hard to find,
good love is hard to find,
you got lucky babe
you got lucky babe, when I found you
yeah, go...just go
but remember, good love is hard to find,
good love is hard to find,
you got lucky babe
Let me run with you tonight
I'll take you on a moonlight ride
There's someone I used to see
But she don't give a damn for me
But let me get to the point, let's roll another joint
And turn the radio loud, I'm too alone to be proud
You don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels to be me
People come, people go
Some grow young, some grow cold
I woke up in between
A memory and a dream
So let's get to the point, let's roll another joint
Let's head on down the road
There's somewhere I gotta go
And you don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels to be me
My old man was born to rock
He's still tryin' to beat the clock
Think of me what you will
I've got a little space to fill
So let's get to the point, let's roll another joint
And let's head on down the road
There's somewhere I got to go
And you don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels
No, you don't know how it feels to be me
You don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels
My sister got lucky,
Married a yuppy,
Took him for all he was worth,
Now she's a swinger,
dating a singer,
I can't decide which is worse.
But not me,
Baby,
I got you,
Save me,
Aw, yer so bad,
Best thing i've ever had,
In a world gone mad,
Yer so bad.
My sisters ex husband,
Can't get no lovin',
Walks around dog faced and hurt,
Now he's got nothing,
Head in the oven,
I can't decide which is worse.
But not me,
Baby,
I got you,
Save me,
Aw, yer so bad,
Best thing i've ever had,
In a world gone mad,
Yer so bad.
Aw, yer so bad,
Best thing i've ever had,
In a world gone mad,
Well I won't back down
No I won't back down
You can stand me up at the gates of Hell
But I won't back down
No I'll stand my ground
Won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from dragging me down
Gonna stand my ground
And I won't back down
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
Hey yeah, I'll stand my ground
And I won't back down
Well I know what's right
I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushin me around
but I'll stand my ground
And I won't back down
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
Hey yeah, I'll stand my ground
And I won't back down
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
Hey yeah, I'll stand my ground
And I won't back down
You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
Sail away, kill off the hours
You belong somewhere you feel free
Run away, find you a lover
Go away somewhere bright and new
I have seen no other
Who compares with you
You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
You belong with your love on your arm
You belong somewhere you feel free
Run away, go find a lover
Run away, let your heart be your guide
You deserve the deepest of cover
You belong in that home by and by
You belong among the wildflowers
You belong somewhere close to me
Far away from your trouble and worry
You belong somewhere you feel free
You follow your feelings, you follow your dreams
You follow the leader into the trees
And what's in there waiting, neither one of us knows
You gotta keep one eye open the further you go
You never dreamed you'd go down on one knee, but now
Who could have seen, you'd be so hard to please somehow
You feel like a poor boy, a long way from home
You're just a poor boy, a long way from home
And it's wake up time
Time to open your eyes
And rise and shine
You spend your life dreaming, running 'round in a trace
You hang out forever and still miss the dance
And if you get lucky, you might find someone
To help you get over the pain that will come
Yeah, you were so cool back in high school, what happened?
You were so sure not to have your spirits dampened
But you're just a poor boy alone in this world
You're just a poor boy alone in this world
And it's wake up time
Time to open your eyes
And rise and shine
Well, if he gets lucky, a boy finds a girl
To help him to shoulder the pain in this world
And if you follow your feelings
And you follow your dreams
You might find the forest there in the trees
Yeah, you'll be alright, it's just gonna take time, but now
Who could have seen you'd be so hard to please somehow
You're just a poor boy, a long way from home
You're just a poor boy, a long way from home
And it's wake up time
Time to open your eyes
And rise and shine
'Cause it's wake up time
It's time to open your eyes
Well I'm travelin', travelin' baby, travelin' on
Well it's good to see you but I can't stay long
No I've got a travelin' fever baby, got a travelin' Jones
No don't look for me in the mornin' baby, I'm gonna be travelin' on
I'll be good, as good as gold to the next or maybe better
Wait for me down the road, keep one eye open for my letter
'Cause I'm gonna be travelin', travelin' baby, travelin' on
Lord, it's good to see you but I can't stay long
Oh, I've got a travelin' fever baby, got a travelin' Jones
Well don't look for me in the mornin' baby, I'm gonna be travelin'
Gonna be travelin', gonna be travelin' on
I'll be up before the sun, get a big jump on the morning
You should have known all along
You should have known you'd get no warning
And I'm gonna be travelin', travelin' baby, travelin' on
But Lord, it's good to see you but I won't stay long
Oh, I got a travelin' fever baby, I got a travelin' Jones
Yeah, don't look for me in the mornin' baby, I'm gonna be travelin'
Gonna be travelin', gonna be travelin' on
Travelin' on, travelin' on, travelin' on, travelin' on
Well I'm travelin', travelin' baby, travelin' on
Yeah it's good to see you but I can't stay long
Yeah I got a travelin' fever baby, a travelin' Jones
Well don't look for me in the mornin' baby, I'm gonna be travelin'
Looks like you got a little more to lose
Now little more at stake
I see you had a hard time
Livin' with the change
You got me on the line
Now tryin' to call your bluff
You just won't be satisfied
Too much ain't enough
It ain't enough, it ain't enough
Yeah, you're standing by the telephone
Waiting for the word
And ever since that bathroom scene
There's been a slight concern
Yeah, I'm tryin' to make this easy, baby
You seem to like things rough
You just can't be satisfied
Too much ain't enough
It ain't enough, it ain't enough
Too much ain't enough
Too much ain't enough
You know that, well, I'm down on my knees
Guess, some little pill just can't be pleased
Little miss queen of hearts, you are a strange thing
Why you want to make so vague?
I'm wanderin' through this mess you made
To see what I can save
Yeah, I'm livin' on the line now
Tryin' to call your bluff
You just won't be satisfied
Too much ain't enough
It's time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead, I have no way of knowing
But under my feet, bad grass is growing
It's time to move on, it's time to get going
Broken skyline, movin' through the airport
She's an honest defector
Conscientious objector
Now her own protector
Broken skyline, which way to love land
Which way to something better
Which way to forgiveness
Which way do I go
It's time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead, I have no way of knowing
But under my feet, bad grass is growing
It's time to move on, it's time to get going
Sometime later, getting the words wrong
Wasting the meaning and losing the rhyme
Nauseous adrenalin
Like braking up a dogfight
Like a deer in the headlights
Frozen in real time
I'm losing my mind
It's time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead, I have no way of knowing
But under my feet, bad grass is growing
Oh baby dont it feel like heaven right now
Dont it feel like somethin from a dream
Yeah Ive never known nothing quite like this
Dont it feel like tonight might never be again
We know better than to try and pretend
Baby no one could have ever told me bout this
The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part
Well yeah I might have chased a couple of women around
All it ever got me was down
Then there were those that made me feel good
But never as good as I feel right now
Baby youre the only one thats ever known how
To make me wanna live like I wanna live now
The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more ca rd
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part
Dont let it kill you baby, dont let it get to you
Dont let em kill you baby, dont let em get to you
Ill be your breathin heart, Ill be your cryin fool
In the dark of the sun
Will you save me a place?
Give me hope, give me comfort
Get me to a better place
I saw you sail across a river
Underneath Orion's sword
In your eyes there was a freedom
I had never known before
Hey, yeah, yeah, in the dark of the sun
We will stand together
Yeah we will stand as one
In the dark of the sun
Past my days of great confusion
I past my days of wondering why
Will I sail into the heavens?
Constellations in my eyes
Hey, yeah, yeah, in the dark of the sun
We will stand together
Yeah, we will stand as one
Hey, yeah, yeah, in the dark of the sun
We will stand together
Yeah, we will stand as one
Oh, in the dark of the sun
Hey, yeah, yeah, in the dark of the sun
You got a criminal mind, you got criminal looks
Boy you better look out, you're gonna get hooked
Don't you ever feel guilty when you come up short
Man you better be careful, you're gonna get caught
'Cause you're the criminal kind, you're the criminal kind
Man what you gonna do? Where you gonna hide?
They're callin' you a sickness, disease of the mind
Man what you gonna do? You're the criminal kind
Don't you ever get tired? Don't you ever wanna quit?
Yeah it's been a long time, and you still don't fit
Dog tags on the mirror, hangin' down from a chain
Give up little sister, this ain't gonna change
'Cause you're the criminal kind, you're the criminal kind
Man what you gonna do? Where you gonna hide?
They're callin' you a sickness, disease of the mind
Man what you gonna do? You're the criminal kind
Yeah, and that little girl you used to know
Just don't come around no more
Now she ain't there to watch the door
She don't wanna die in no liquor store
I hope they all made money, I hope they all get rich
Yeah, I hope they give hell, to every son of a bitch
That put a man on the carpet
Or struck him out on the line
Whoever let him get a taste of the criminal life
'Cause you're the criminal kind, you're the criminal kind
Man what you gonna do? Where you gonna hide?
They're callin' you a sickness, disease of the mind
I used to live in a two-room apartment
Neighbors knockin' on my wall
Times were hard, I don't wanna knock it
I don't miss it much at all
Oh yeah I'm alright I just feel a little lonely tonight
I'm okay, most of the time
I just feel a little lonely tonight
I used to need your love so badly
Then I came to live with it
Lately I get a faraway feeling
And the whole thing starts again
Oh yeah I'm alright I just feel a little lonely tonight
I'm okay, most of the time
I just feel a little lonely tonight
I used to need your love so badly
Then I came to live with it
Lately I get a faraway feeling
Well, she was standing by the highway
In her boots and silver spurs
Gonna hitchhike to the yellow moon
When a Cadillac stopped for her
And she said, "Hey, nice to meet you, are you goin' my way?"
Yeah, that's when it happened
The world caught fire that day
And she went down swingin'
Yeah, she went down swingin'
Well, she was over twenty-one
In trouble with the law
And it didn't faze her none
She called her mother-in-law
And said I need a little money
I knew I could count on you
After that night in Vegas
And the hell that we went through
We went down swingin'
Like Benny Goodman
Yeah, we went down swingin'
Moonlight on the interstate
She was 'cross the Georgia line
Looked out the window feeling great
Yeah, it had to come in time
And she said I'm never goin' back
She said at last I'm free
I wish ma could see me now, she'd be so proud of me
She went down swingin'
Like Glenn Miller
Yeah, she went down swingin'
Like Tommy Dorsey
Yeah, she went down swingin'
Like Sammy Davis
She went down swingin'
Don't go crazy now, take it easy
I just can't hold out forever
Don't you lie to me, you said me you love
Don't say you don't remember
'Cause you told me
Yeah, you did
And I'm not gonna let you forget
Well, I'm down on my knees
And I'm begging again
You tell me why you have to pretend?
I know you want me, why don't you give in?
Surrender
Don't let me down
I just can't hang around
Feeling this way forever
On your balcony
You said you love me
Don't say you don't remember
'Cause you told me
Yeah, you did
And I'm not gonna let you forget
Well, I'm down on my knees
And I'm begging again
You tell me why you have to pretend
I don't like it when you looking at him
Surrender, surrender to me
Baby, surrender, surrender
If there's gonna be trouble tonight
You can meet me at the usual place
If there's gonna be a fight tonight
Remember what you said to my face
Oh and darlin'
Too many words have been spoken
I don't wanna get my heart broken
Like lovers do
No more songs tonight
I'm drivin' to the break of day
No more words tonight
We've got enough to throw away
Oh and darlin'
Now that we two are together
Don't dream this could go on forever
Like lovers do
I can hear you singin' on my
Supernatural radio
I hear you singin' on my
Supernatural radio
Oh and darlin'
Too many words have been spoken
I don't wanna get my heart broken
Like lovers do
Ah, hang on
Yea, you better, you better be sick
Hundred million watts
Yea, I think I've a signal
Yea, it's a hundred million watt, raw power, aye
[Female Solo]
Baby you'll come knocking on my front door
Same old line you used to use before
That's the game, well... what am I supposed to do
I didn't know what I was getting into
[Chorus]
So you've had a little trouble in town
Now you're keeping some demons down
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my heart around
[Female Solo]
It's hard to think about what you've wanted
It's hard to think about what you've lost
This doesn't have to be the big get even
This doesn't have to be anything at all
[Male Solo]
I know you really want to tell me good-bye
I know you really want to be your own girl
[Chorus]
Baby you could never look me in the eye
Yeah you buckle with the weight of the words
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my heart around
[Female Solo]
There's people running 'round loose in the world
Ain't got nothin' better to do
Than make a meal of some bright eyed kid
You need someone looking after you
[Male Solo]
I know you really want to tell me goodbye
I know you really want to be your own girl
[Chorus]
Baby you could never look me in the eye
Yeah you buckle with the weight of the words
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my...
Stop draggin' my heart around
Oh, we got another one, just like the other ones
Another bad ass, another troublemaker
I'm scared, ain't you boys scared?
I wonder if he's gonna show us what bad is
Boys, we got a man with a dog collar on
Think we oughta' throw ol' Spike a bone
Make me say
Oh, here's another misfit, another Jimmy Dean
Bet he's got a motorbike, what do y'all think?
Bet it would be good we'll get a ride on it
If he ain't too mad about the future
Maybe we oughta help him see
The future ain't what it used to be
Listen, hey Spike what do you like?
Hey Spike what do you like?
I'll say
Oh, hey Spike what do you like?
Hey Spike, you're scarin' my wife
Hey Spike, tell us 'bout life
Could you tell me about life?
I'm not me, me
But don't call it too boy
You might make me say
There goes my baby, there goes my only one
I think she loves me but she don't wanna let on
Yeah, she likes to keep me guessing
She's got me on the fence with that little bit of mystery
She's a complex kid and she's always been so hard to figure out
Yeah, she always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
Sometimes at night I wait around 'til she gets off
She don't like workin', she says she hates her boss
But she's got me askin' questions, she's got me on the fence
With that little certain something, she's a complex kid
And she's always been so hard to get around
She always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
Just a shadow of a doubt, she says it keeps me runnin'
I'm trying to figure out if she's leadin' up to something
And when she's dreamin', sometimes she sings in French
But in the morning, she don't remember it
But she's got me thinking 'bout it
Yeah, she's got me on the fence
With that little bit of mystery, she's a complex kid
And she's always been so hard to live without
There goes my baby, there goes my only one
I think she loves me but she don't wanna let on
Yeah, she likes to keep me guessing
She's got me on the fence with that little bit of mystery
She's a complex kid and she's always been so hard to figure out
Yeah, she always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
Sometimes at night I wait around 'til she gets off
She don't like workin', she says she hates her boss
But she's got me askin' questions, she's got me on the fence
With that little certain something, she's a complex kid
And she's always been so hard to get around
She always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
Just a shadow of a doubt, she says it keeps me runnin'
I'm trying to figure out if she's leadin' up to something
And when she's dreamin', sometimes she sings in French
But in the morning, she don't remember it
But she's got me thinking 'bout it
Yeah, she's got me on the fence
With that little bit of mystery, she's a complex kid
And she's always been so hard to live without
I'm passing sleeping cities
Fading by degrees
Not believing all I see to be so
I'm flyin' over backyards
Country homes and ranches
Watching life between the branches below
And it's hard to say
Who you are these days
But you run on anyway
Don't you baby?
You keep running for another place
To find that saving grace
I'm moving on alone over ground that no one owns
Past statues that atone for my sins
There's a guard on every door
And a drink on every floor
Overflowing with a thousand amens
And it's hard to say
Who you are these days
But you run on anyway
Don't you baby?
You keep running for another place
To find that saving grace
Don't you baby?
You're rolling up the carpet
Of your father's two-room mansion
No headroom for expansion no more
And there's a corner of the floor
They're telling you is yours
You're confident but not really sure
And it's hard to say
Who you are these days
But you run on anyway
Don't you baby?
You keep running for another place
To find that saving grace
Don't you baby?
You keep running for another place
To find that saving grace
It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
I had the radio on, I was drivin?
Trees went by, me and Del were singin?
Little runaway, I was flyin?
Yeah, runnin? down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin? on a mystery, goin? wherever it leads
Runnin? down a dream
I felt so good, like anything was possible
Hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
The last three days and the rain was unstoppable
It was always cold, no sun shine
Yeah, runnin? down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin? on a mystery, goin? wherever it leads
Runnin? down a dream
I rolled on, the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down to make some time
There?s something good, waitin? down this road
I?m picking up whatever is mine
I?m runnin? down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin? on a mystery, goin? wherever it leads
Runnin? down a dream
Yeah, I?m runnin? down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin? on a mystery, I'm goin? wherever it leads
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a fire flower miles away
You were there like a blow torch burnin'
I was a key that could use a little turnin'
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep there's no way out
This time I have really let myself pull stray
Runaway train never goin' back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow seem all worth while
How on earth did I get so jaded
Last mystery seemed so naked
I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else has known
Here I am just a drowning in the brain
With a ticket for a runaway train
Everything seems judged inside
Day and night earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it
Runaway train never goin' back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Want a ticket for a runaway train?
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
A little out of touch little in the brain
It's just easier to deal with the pain
Runaway train never goin' back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Runaway train never comin' back
Runaway train tearin' up the track
Runaway train burnin' in my veins
Roll another Joint (Tom Petty)
Let me run with you tonight
I’ll take you on a moonlight ride
There’s someone I used to see, but she don’t give a dam for me
But let me get to the point, let’s roll another joint
And turn the radio loud, I’m too along to be proud
You don’t know how it feels,
You don’t know how it feels, to be me
People come, people go
Some go young, some grow cold
I woke up in between, memory end of dream
So let’s get to the point, let’s roll another joint
And let’s head on down the road, there’s somewhere I’ve got to go
You don’t know how it feels
You don’t know how it feels, to be me
My old man was born to rock, he still trying to beat the clock
Think of me what you will, I’ve got a little space to fill
So let’s get to the point, let’s roll another joint
And let’s head on down the road, there’s somewhere I’ve got to go
You don’t know how it feels
You don’t know how it feels
No, you don’t know how it feels, to be me
You don’t know how it feels
You don’t know how it feels
Honey don't walk out I'm too drunk to follow
You know you won't feel this way tomorrow
Well, maybe I'm a little
Rough around the edges
Inside a little hollow
I get faced with some things sometimes
That are so hard to swallow
Hey hey hey
I was born a rebel
Down in Dixie on a Sunday morning
Yeah, with one foot in the grave
And one foot on the pedal
I was born a rebel, I was born a rebel, yeah
Well she picked me up in the morning
And she paid all my tickets
And she screamed in the car
And left me out in th e thicket
Well I never would've dreamed
That her heart was so wicked
Oh but I keep coming back
'Cause it's so hard to kick it
Hey hey hey
I was born a rebel
Down in Dixie on a Sunday morning
Yeah, with one foot in the grave
And one foot on the pedal
I was born a rebel, born a rebel
Even before my father's fathers
They called us all rebels
Burned our cornfields
And left our cities leveled
I can still see the eyes
Of those blue bellied devils
When I'm walking round tonight
Through the concrete and metal
Hey hey hey
I was born a rebel
Down in Dixie on a Sunday morning
Yeah, with one foot in the grave
And one foot on the pedal
I was born a rebel, I was born a rebel
Hey hey hey
I was born a rebel
Down in Dixie on a Sunday morning
Yeah, with one foot in the grave
And one foot on the pedal
I was born a rebel, born a rebel
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Here comes that feeling I've seen in your eyes
Back in the old days, before the hard times
But I'm not afraid anymore
It's only a broken heart
I know the place where you keep your secrets
Out of the sunshine, down in a valley
But I'm not afraid anymore
It's only a broken heart
What would I give, to start all over again
To clean up my mistakes
Stand in the moonlight, stand under heaven
Wait for an answer, hold out forever
But don't be afraid anymore
It's only a brkoen heart
What would I give, to start all over again
To clean up my mistakes
I know your weakness, you've seen my dark side
The end of the rainbow is always a long ride
But I'm not afraid anymore
Well yeah, they call me Moon Pie, my real name is Richard
I live in a little town, you've probably never been to before
There's a post office surrounded with gardenias
And a pair of mud flaps glass waggling at my door
I don't know what all to say, somebody's got to help
Nobody knows I'm here
Oh please don't call me Moon Pie, my real name is Richard
Mary got a brand new car
Mary got a brand new set of wheels
Now everyone here is so charged
Man, you don't know how good it feels
And we wanna go where she goes
We wanna listen to her radio
Mary got a brand new car
Mary got the one she was saving for
Now everyone here is so charged
Mary never looked so good before
And we wanna go where she goes
We wanna listen to her radio
Can we ride? Mary, can we ride?
Can we ride? Mary, can we ride?
Can we ride? Mary, can we ride?
Can we ride? Oh Mary, can we ride?
Mary got a brand new car
Mary got a brand new set of wheels
Now everyone here is so charged
Man, you don't know how good it feels
And we wanna go where she goes
We wanna listen to her radio
Mary got a brand new car
Mary got a brand new car
Mary got a brand new car
Mary got a brand new car
Mary got a brand new car
She grew up in an Indiana town
Had a good-lookin' mama who never was around
But she grew up tall and she grew up right
With them Indiana boys on them Indiana nights
Well, she moved down here at the age of eighteen
She blew the boys away, was more than they'd seen
I was introduced and we both started groovin'
I said, "I dig you baby, but I got to keep movin' on"
Keep movin' on
Last dance with Mary Jane
One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in
And I'm tired of this town again
Well, I don't know, but I've been told
You never slow down, you never grow old
I'm tired of screwin' up, tired of going down
Tired of myself, tired of this town
Oh, my my, oh, hell yes
Honey, put on that party dress
Buy me a drink, sing me a song
Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long
Last dance with Mary Jane
One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in
And I'm tired of this town again
There's pigeons down on Market Square
She's standin' in her underwear
Lookin' down from a hotel room
The nightfall will be comin' soon
Oh, my my, oh, hell yes
You got to put on that party dress
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone
I hit my last number and walked to the road
Last dance with Mary Jane
One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in
From a table across the room
She was signaling me with her eyes
I walked over to be introduced
I said, "Hello", she just smiled
And said, "I know a place not too far from here
We could get away for awhile"
Yeah, that's when she kissed me and told me her name
I never did tell her mine, oh
Magnolia
I remember the smell of the wind through the sweet Magnolia
And I know that she's out there somewhere in the world
She's forgotten me but I remember her
Magnolia
Well, her lips were as warm as that wet southern night
Her eyes were as black as the sky
And I wondered aloud just what I done right
As I lay there with her by my side
Then she took hold of my hand as she looked up at me
And said, "Now I must tell you goodbye"
And there in the moonlight as I watched her leave
I felt a chill down inside, oh
Magnolia
I remember the smell of the wind through the sweet Magnolia
And I know that she's out there somewhere in the world
She's forgotten me but I remember her
Magnolia
Oh, I remember the smell of the wind through the sweet Magnolia
White light cut a scar in the sky, thin line of silver
The night was all clouded with dreams, wind made me shiver
Black and yellow pools of light, outside my window
The clouds are all silver and black, floating around me
Luna come into my eyes, Luna surround me
With black and yellow pools of light fall by my window
Luna come to me tonight, I am a prisoner
Luna glide down from the moon
Luna come to me tonight, I am a prisoner
Luna glide down from the moon
The clouds are all silver and black, floating around me
Luna come into my eyes, Luna surround me
With black and yellow pools of light fall by my window
Luna come to me tonight, I am a prisoner
Well it was out in California by the San Diego sea
That was when I was taken in and it left its mark on me
Yeah she nearly drove me crazy with all those China toys
And I know she really didn't mean a thing to any of those sailor boys
Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
Baby I'm noticing the change as I move down the street
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge
South Carolina put out its arms for me
Right up until everything went black somewhere on Lonely Street
And I still can't quite remember who helped me to my feet
Thank God for a love that followed the angel's remedy
Louisiana rain is falling just like tears
Running down my face, washing out the years
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge
Well I never will get over this English refugee
Singing to the jukebox in some all-night beanery
Yeah he was eating pills like candy and chasing them with tea
You should have seen him lick his lips, that old black muddied beak
Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
Baby I'm noticing the change as I move down the street
Louisian rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge
Louisiana rain is falling just like tears
Running down my face, washing out the years
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
She's a lonely girl
Lost in the world
Got love in her eyes for me
She's a sweet young thing
Brings me dreams
In a box she made for me
Lonesome sundown
(Yea)
This is gonna be hard
It's a lonesome sundown
(Yea)
This is gonna be hard
I know so don't let go
This is gonna be hard
I'll never let you down
This love I've found
It means too much to me
And I stand accused
Outside the law
But you are all I need
Lonesome sundown
(Yea)
This is gonna be hard
Yea a lonesome sundown
(Yea)
This is gonna be hard
I know so don't let go
This is gonna be hard
Redemption comes
To those who wait
Forgiveness is the key
And I wish you love
And I wish you hope
Please believe in me
And it's a lonesome sundown
(Yea)
This is gonna be hard
Yea a lonesome sundown
(Yea)
This is gonna be hard
I know so don't let go
Well, I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still
I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well, the good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well, some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I've started out for God knows where
I guess I'll know when I get there
I'm learning to fly around the clouds
But what goes up must come down
I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
I'm learning to fly around the clouds
But what goes up must come down
I'm learning to fly
Well they put me out on the old kings road
I didn't know which way to go
There was people all around wearin' funny lookin' clothes
Some boys, some girls, some I don't know
I didn't know which way to go
I'm a new world boy on the old kings road
Rockabilly music was in the air
I looked in the door, they said "come over here"
They had socks and shirts and underwear
That I'd seen before, but I don't know where
I didn't know which way to go
I'm a new world boy on the old kings road
A pakistani man said "listen here
Let me fix you up before you go back there
You can't get 'em in the usa
Not in new york, not in west la"
I thought about it, said " I don't know
You got me in a corner
You got me against the wall
I got nowhere to go
I got nowhere to fall
Take back your insurance
Baby nothin's guaranteed
Take back your acid rain
Let you TV bleed
Refain:
You're jammin' me, You're jammin' me
Quit jammin' me
Baby you can keep me painted in a corner
You can walk away, but it's not over
Take back your angry slander
Take back your pension plan
Take back your ups and downs of your life
In Raisin-Land
Take back Vanessa Redgrave
Take back Joe Piscopo
Take back Eddie Murphy
Give 'em all some place to go
Refrain
Take back your iranian torture
And the apple in young Steve's eye
Yeah take back your losing streak
Check your front wheel drive
Take back Pasadena
Take back El Salvador
Take back that country club
You say what you want to Jack
I'm gonna get my baby back
Trouble came right away
Now you say she's gone to stay
Cough it up, hit the street
Left without a word to me
Oh, you don't know
How that girl could touch my soul
You say what you want to Jack
I'm gonna get my baby back
Suddenly you know my name
Say there's only me to blame
It's gonna rain, it's gonna shine
Gotta stay between the lines
Rollin' down a lonely road
You say I should let it go
Wish you would come on down
If you need I'll come around
You say what you want to Jack
I'm gonna get my baby back
Used to have a son named Joe
Where he gone to, I don't know
Maybe down in Mexico
Livin' off of Pattie's door
If you give me half a chance
I will make her sing and dance
I'm gonna give her all my soul
I'm gonna play her rock 'n' roll
You say what you want to Jack
I'm gonna get my baby back
You say what you want to jack
Tired Joey Boy
While you're out with the sheep
My life is so troubled
Now I can't go to sleep
I would walk myself out
But the streets are so dark
I shall wait till the morning
And walk in the park
This life is so simple
When one is at home
And I'm never complaining
When there's work to be done
Oh, I'm tired Joey Boy
Of the makings of men
I would like to be
Cheerful again
Ambition will take you
Ride you too far
And conservatism bring you
To boredom once more
Sit down by the river
Watch the stream flow
Recall all the dreams
That you once used to know
Things you've forgotten
Took you away
Pastures not greener
But meaner
Love of the simple
Is all that I need
I've no time for schism
Or lovers of greed
Go up to the mountain
Go up to the glen
When silence will touch you
You know , sometimes, I dont know why,
But this old town just seems so hopeless
I aint really sure, but it seems I remember the good times
Were just a little bit more in focus
But when she puts her arms around me,
I can, somehow, rise ab ove it
Yeah man, when I got that little girl standing right by my side,
You know, I can tell the whole wide world, shove it,
Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl,
Yeah, she looks so right, shes all I need tonight
Every now and then, I get down to the end of a day,
Ill have to stop, ask myself, whatve I done?
It just seems so useless to have to work so hard,
And nothin ever really seem to come from it
And then she looks m e in the eye, says, we gonna last forever,
And man, you know I cant begin to doubt it
No, because this feels so good and so free and so right,
I know we aint never goin change our minds about it
Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl,
Yeah, she looks so right, shes all I need tonight
Yeah, every time it seems like there aint nothin left no more,
I find myself havin to reach out and grab hold of somethin
Yeah, I just catch myself wonderin, waitin, worryin
About some silly little things that dont add up to nothin.
And then she looks me in the eye, says, we gonna last forever,
And man, you know I cant begin to doubt it
No, because this feels so good and so free and so right,
I know we aint never goin change our minds about it.
Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl,
It's all I can do
To keep that little girl smiling
And keep my faith alive
Takes all I got to hold on to tomorrow
And you want to make it hard
Yeah, you want to make it hard on me
Some other time
I'd be understanding
You were supposed to be
The friend that I needed when I was down and now
You want to make it hard
You want to make it hard on me
Maybe if I tried, I could turn the other cheek
Maybe, but how big do I have to be?
Now you want to make it hard
Yeah, you want to make it hard on me
Maybe if I tried, I could turn the other cheek
Maybe, but how big do I have to be?
I need someone
To put their arm around me
Shelpter me from all harm
Just as I find something to believe in
You want to make it hard
You want to make it hard on me
Yeah, you want to make it hard
She's a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too
It's a long day livin' in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy, 'cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart
And I'm free, I'm free fallin'
All the vampires walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura Blvd
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
All the good girls are home with broken hearts
And I'm free, I'm free fallin'
I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
I wanna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for awhile
And I'm free, I'm free fallin'
Well it was nearly summer, we sat on your roof
Yea, we smoked cigarettes and we stared at the moon
And I'd showed you stars you never could see
Baby, it couldn't have been that easy to forget about me
Baby, time meant nothing, anything seemed real
Yea, you could kiss like fire and you made me feel
Like every word you said was meant to be
No, it couldn't have been that easy to forget about me
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometime
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride
They get lucky sometime
Two cars parked on the overpass
Rocks hit the water like broken glass
I should have known right then it was too good to last
God, it's such a drag when you're livin' in the past
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometime
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride
They get lucky sometime
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometime
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride
Yea, they get lucky sometime
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometime
Even the losers get lucky sometime
Ohh ohh ohh ohh
Even the losers get lucky sometime
Ohh ohh
Put down your things and rest a while
You know we've both nowhere to go
Yeah, Daddy had the crash
He's always halfway there you know
And no, I don't pretend there's anymore of that
They say one day you'll look up and laugh
And hear the same sad echo
When you walk
Yeah, the same sad echo
When you talk loud and clear
It's the same as the same
Sad echo around here
I promise you this winter
I will worship you like God
And ride your train forever
Electric fortunes to be told
And I don't want to question or even celebrate
All the joy you took and then gave back too late
It's the same sad echo when you lie
It's the same sad echo when you try to be clear
It's the same as the same sad echo around here
Well, I woke up right here in a pool of sweat
And with a box of pills and you
Yeah and I'm gonna keep my head
I'm gonna keep my cool, oh I'm so in love with you
Yes and in another world nothing was like this
There may have been a girl that never was a kiss
The poison came in liquid
She was naked all the time
And no one could explain it
It was all between the lines
And I don't seem to trust anyone no more
It could be faith I'm just not sure
It's the same sad echo every day
Yeah the same sad echo another way, when you call
It's the same as the same sad echo most of all
Oh well you just got tired you just gave in
You took it hard then you just quit
You let me down, you dropped the ball
You fell on your face most of all
And I don't want to mean anything to you
And I don't want to tempt you to be true
It's the same sad echo comin' down
It's the same sad echo all around in my ears
Goin' down to Lillian's Music Store
To buy a black diamond string
Gonna wind it up on my guitar
Gonna make that silver sing
Like it was Dreamville
A long time ago
Million miles away
All the trees were green
In Dreamville
I keep wakin' up all by myself
With a blue jay in my brain
Flappin' his wings, makin' me sing
It was just about to rain
Like it was Dreamville
Where I was born
Light years from here
And the air smelled good
In Dreamville
Like it was Dreamville
A long time ago
Light years from here
And the trees were green
In Dreamville
Ridin' with my mama
To Glen spring's pool
The water was cold
My lips were blue
There was rock and roll
Across the dial
When I think of her
It makes me smile
Like it was Dreamville
A long time ago
Million miles away
All the trees were green
In Dreamville, in Dreamville
Yeah, it was Dreamville
A long time ago
Light years from here
And the air smelled good
I was talking with a friend of mine
Said a woman had hurt his pride
Told him that she loved him so
Turned around let him go
Then he said, "You better watch your step
Or you're gonna get hurt yourself
Someone's gonna tell you lies
Cut you down to size"
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
What if I love you baby?
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Someday I might need you, baby
Don't do me like that
Listen honey, can you see?
Baby, you would bury me
If you were in the public eye
Givin' someone else a try
And you know you better watch your step
Or you're gonna get hurt yourself
Someone's gonna tell you lies
Cut you down to size
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
What if I love you baby?
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
What if I need you baby?
Don't do me like that
'Cause somewhere deep down inside
Someone is saying, love doesn't last that long
I got this feelin' inside night and day and
And now I can't take it no more
Listen honey, can you see?
Baby, you would bury me
If you were in the public eye
Givin' someone else a try
And you know you better watch your step
Or you're gonna get hurt yourself
Someone's gonna tell you lies
Cut you down to size
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
What if I love you baby ?
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
I just might need you, honey
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Baby, baby, baby
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Baby, baby, baby
(Hey) Don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Whatever you're looking for
(Hey) Don't come around here no more
I've given up, stop
I've given up, stop
I've given up, stop
on waiting any longer
I've given up on
this love getting stronger
Don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
I don't feel you anymore
You darken my door
Whatever you're looking for
(Hey) don't come around here no more
I've given up, stop
I've given up, stop
I've given up, stop
You tangle my emotions
I've given up, honey
please admit it's over
(Hey) don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Stop walking down my street
Don't come around here no more
Who did you expect to meet?
Don't come around here no more
Whatever you're looking for
(Hey) don't come around here no more
(Hey) honey please
don't come around here no more
Whatever you're looking for
Ah, oh, ah, ah.
I live on the west side by the county reservoir
And she lives down on Depot street
Behind the city hall, behind the city hall
Her father's name is Macintosh, her mother's name is Pearl
And they live down on Depot street
She's my little girl, she's my little girl
Down on Depot street, I'm gonna see my baby
Depot street, I'm gonna see my girl
Depot street, baby, baby, baby
Depot street, behind the city hall
We ain't got no money, we don't have no car
We stay down on Depot street
Just dancin' in the park, dancin' in the park
And her sister doesn't like me
But I don't really care
I know the only reason is she wants me for herself
She wants me for herself
Down on Depot street, I'm gonna see my baby
Depot street, I'm gonna see my girl
Depot street, baby, baby, baby
Depot street, behind the city hall
She's my baby, she's my girl
And we ain't been to college, we both quit high school
There was way too many people there
Makin' way too many rules, makin' way too many rules
So we got no education, but we don't care at all
'Cause it don't mean much on Depot street
Behind the city hall, behind the city hall
Down on Depot street, I'm gonna see my baby
Depot street, I'm gonna see my girl
Depot street, baby, baby, baby
Waiting by the side of the road
For day to break so we could go
Down into Los Angeles
With dirty hands and worn out knees
(Chorus)
I keep crawling back to you
I keep crawling back to you
The ranger came with burning eyes
The chambermaid awoke surprised
thought she'd seen the last of him
She shook her head and let him in
Hey baby, there's something in your eyes
Tryin' to say to me
That I'm gonna be alright if I believe in you
It's all I want to do
It was me and my sidekick
He was drunk and I was sick
We were caught up in a barroom fight
Till an Indian shot out the lights
I'm so tired of being tired
Sure as night will follow day
Most things I worry about
Never happen anyway
I changed the lock on my front door
So you can't see me anymore
And you can't come inside my house
And you can't lie down on my couch
I changed the lock on my front door
I changed the number on my phone
So you can't call me up at home
And you can't say those things to me
That make me fall down on my knees
I changed the nunmber on my phone
Cause I changed the kind of car I drive
So you can't see me when I go by
And you can't chase me up the street
And you can't knock me off of my feet
I changed the kind of car I drive
I changed the kind of clothes I wear
So you can't find me anywhere
You can't spot me in a crowd
And you can't call my name out loud
I changed the kind of clothes I wear
I changed the tracks underneath the train
So you can't find me ever again
And you can't trace my path
And you can't hear me laugh
And honey I'm laughing all the time
I changed the name of this town
So you can't follow me down
And you can't touch me like before
And you can't make me want you more
I changed the name of this town
I changed the lock on my front door
I changed the number on my phone
I changed the kind of car I drive
I changed the kind of clothes I wear
I changed the tracks underneath the train
I changed the name of this town
I changed the name of this town
Sometimes I wanna leave you
Sometimes I wanna go
Right back where I came from
Back where I belong
But it never lasts for too long
Always goes away
Well I still don't look for reasons
That's much too hard these days
Why worry about the rain?
Why worry about the problem?
Honey Century City's got everything covered
Well your mama gave you lovin'
Mama held you near
Baby mama can't do nothin'
Honey mama just ain't here
And you can pretend all you want to
But that won't work no more
No you can't run back to daddy
Yeah you tried that once before
Why worry about your father?
Why worry about your mother?
Honey Century City's got everything covered
We're gonna live in Century City
Go ahead and give in, Century City
Like modern men, modern girls
We're gonna live in the modern world
We're gonna live in Century City
Go ahead and give in, Century City
Like modern men, modern girls
We're gonna live in the modern world
Sometimes I get discouraged
Sometimes I feel so down
Sometimes I get so worried
But I don't know what about
But it works out in the long run
Always goes away
And I've come now to accept it
It's a reoccurring phase
Don't worry about the rain
Don't worry about the problem
Honey Century City's got everything covered
We're gonna live in Century City
We're gonna live in Century City
We're gonna live in Century City
Well it was out in California by the San Diego sea
That was when I was taken in and it left its mark on me
Yeah she nearly drove me crazy with all those China toys
And I know she really didn't mean a thing to any of those sailor boys
Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
Baby I'm noticing the change as I move down the street
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge
South Carolina put out its arms for me
Right up until everything went black somewhere on Lonely Street
And I still can't quite remember who helped me to my feet
Thank God for a love that followed the angel's remedy
Louisiana rain is falling just like tears
Running down my face, washing out the years
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge
Well I never will get over this English refugee
Singing to the jukebox in some all-night beanery
Yeah he was eating pills like candy and chasing them with tea
You should have seen him lick his lips, that old black muddied beak
Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
Baby I'm noticing the change as I move down the street
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge
Louisiana rain is falling just like tears
Running down my face, washing out the years
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
Come go with me, babe
Come go with me, girl
Baby, let's go
To the cabin down below
I got a radio
Put it on soft and low
Baby, let's go
To the cabin down below
Well, I've had my eye on you
For a long, long time
I'm watching everything you do
Baby, you're gonna be mine
Come on go with me, babe
Come on go with me, girl
Baby, let's go
To the cabin down below
Time's been moving slow
Since we both got here
Come on slide a little closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Well I got a radio
Turn it on soft and low
Baby, let's go
To the cabin down below
Oh, baby, let's go
To the cabin down below
Baby, let's love
She took a rolled up twenty out of her pocket
And paid for my cigarettes
We were friends at first sight in the 7-Eleven light
She said, "Here, let me cover it"
And I rode shotgun all that night
She drove and never made a sound
I asked, if there was anything wrong
She said, "Nothing worth talking 'bout"
It's a blue Sunday
Down the interstate
Yeah, a blue Sunday
Blue with shades of gray
Her backseat could have been a hotel
I slept for a thousand years
Every now and then she'd laugh out loud for no reason
I pretended not to hear
And rolled my jacket up under my head
And stretched my body out
Couldn't be too far in front of her daddy's bloodhounds
But I ain't gonna worry now
It's a blue Sunday
Down the interstate
Yeah, a blue Sunday
Blue with shades of gray
A blue Sunday
We never met before
It's a blue Sunday
I got a dirty, dirty feelin'
That I just can't shake
Yeah, my brain keeps burnin'
And my body just aches
Yeah, I know a woman's body
Is only flesh and bone
A woman's body
Is only flesh and bone
How come I can't let go?
I'm between two worlds
I said, oh yeah, I'm out of my mind
I'm between two worlds
There's a lot of talk
About the danger zone
There's adventure novels
'Bout takin' to the road
Yeah, I know, a woman's body
Is only flesh and bone
A woman's body
Is only flesh and bone
How come I can't let go?
I'm between two worlds
Yeah, I know, a woman's body
Is only flesh and bone
A woman's body
Is only flesh and bone
How come I can't let go?
Oh, I'm between two worlds
And I say, oh yeah, I'm, I'm
I'm gonna change your world
Oh yeah, oh, I'm, I'm
I'm gonna change your world
I can change your world
I'ma change your world, oh
I'ma change your world
Oh yeah, I'm, I'm
Well, they raised that horse to be a jumper
He was owned by a mid-west bible thumper
His preacher was a Louisiana drummer
Took all winter to get through the summer
The fieldhand hit the switch and stumbled
Outside the big engine roared and rumbled
The stolen horse spooked and tumbled
She didn't speak for a week, just kinda mumbled
Ankle deep in love
Ankle deep in love
Ankle deep in love
Ankle deep in love
He was caught up in a lie he half believed
Found her hiding high in the family tree
Washed his hands and put across his knee
She said, ?Daddy you been a mother to me"
Ankle deep in love
Ankle deep in love
Ankle deep in love
Well, she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin'
That there was a little more to life somewhere else
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
And if she had to die tryin'
She had one little promise she was gonna keep
O yeah, all right
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
Well, it was kind of cold that night
She stood alone on her balcony
Yeah, she could hear the cars roll by
Out on 441 like waves crashin' on the beach
And for one desperate moment
There he crept back in her memory
God it's so painful when something that's so close
Is still so far out of reach
O yeah, all right
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
