Oh yeah aaallriiiight now
I've been up half the night
Tryin' to find out
Where this windin' road
Is goin' to lead me to
My little lady comin' home so late
She left me feelin' blue
She's been screamin' and cryin'
Every step of the way
And now it's what you hear me say
There's a thousand of other places
That I'd rather be
I've been checkin' on all the ?
That you see
I'm puttin' on my walkin' shoes
I tell ya baby, I'm not your fool
I'm steppin' out in my walkin' shoes
I tell ya baby, I'm leavin' you
I'm tellin' you
I'm gonna set things straight
Cause I'm tired of
Tryin' to understand
I'm the one who's girl
Gallivants all over town
With a mr. backdoor man
No more talkin'
It's time I start a walkin'
And now it's what you hear me say
There's a thousand other places
That I'd rather be
I'm here checkin' on all the ?
That you see
Chorus
My little lady
She makes herself crazy
She left me here all alone
No more talkin'
It's time I started walkin' out
And find myself a brand new home
There's a thousand other places
I'd rather be
I've been checkin' out all the ?
That you see
Chorus
I'm puttin' on my walkin' shoes
I tell ya baby, I'm not your fool
I'm steppin' out in my walkin' shoes
I'll see you later, cause I'm leavin' you
For to long now I have wanted you
All for me 'cause when I'm down
Ah, you take me where I wanna be
I know, oh just what's on your mind
You know you can get it baby
Ooh, with a wink of your eye
She's good when she's bad
She's bad when I'm around
She alone is the reason
My spirit's wild
She's good when she's bad
She gives me what I need
To keep me satisfied
She's in my dream
It's where I feel you next to me
But when I see you once again, oh
Oh, you're such a tease
I know, oh just what's on your mind
You know you can get it baby
Ooh, with a wink of your eye
She's good when she's bad
She's bad when I'm around
She alone is the reason
My spirit's wild
She's good when she's bad
She gives me what I need
Oh to keep me satisfied
I know, oh just what's on my mind
You know you can get it baby
Ooh, with a wink of your eye
She's good when she's bad
She's bad when I'm around
She alone is the reason
My spirit's wild
She's good when she's bad
She gives me what I need
She's good
(She's good)
She's bad
(She's bad)
Aah yeah
She's good, she's good
When she's bad
She's bad, oh
When there's a man around
Baby, baby
All the boys in the band
She's good
Oh it happens every now and then
Along the banks of the Potamus
When me and the boys gather some toys
And take care of a little bit
Sometimes it's crazy, sometimes it's hazy
Sometimes it takes all night
In need of perfection bring your protection
'Cause baby it'll feel so right
I don't remember the town
The town with the big bass sound
We're goin' down to Riverside Drive
We're goin' down to Riverside Drive
She's faster than the speed of sound
About the fastest thing I've known
She's been tryin' to make up her mind
Just who to let her take her home
Well sometimes I rode in, sometimes I'm flown in
Sometimes I feel I just don't know
In need of perfection, bring your protection
'Cause you never know what's in store
I don't remember the town
The town with the big bass sound
We're goin' down to Riverside Drive
We're goin' down to Riverside Drive
Hit the river
I tell ya what I'm gonna do
When the moon stares me in the eye
You're actin' real good like you know you should
And I'll give you a piece of pie
Well sometimes I feel it, sometimes I steal it
Sometimes I can get it on
In need of perfection bring your protection
'Cause you're bringin' me down
I don't remember the town
The town with the big bass sound
We're goin' down to Riverside Drive
We're goin' down to Riverside Drive
We're goin' down to Riverside Drive
We're goin' down to Riverside Drive
To Riverside Drive, to Riverside Drive
Hands of time I feel 'em pass you by
Witness the pain that it leaves behind
Shadow grows darker and when it comes to show
Takes you away when the winds are blowin' cold
Ohh, Phantom rider
Please don't take me away
Time is everlasting but nothing outlasts time
Whatever comes must go it seems it's not ours to question why
Just lift your hands up to the sky and taste the warmth of the sun
You're livin' for the moment but your time is gonna come
Ohh, Phantom rider
Please don't take me away
You can feel it comin' the older that you grow
And when your time it's come at last there's some things you'll never know
So always remember to keep your guard held high
'Cause you'll never know when the Phantom will make his sinful ride
Ohh, Phantom rider
Please don't take me away
Ohh, Phantom rider
Please don't take me away
Come to take me away, no
I'm lookin' for a girl
With a sultry stare
I know it's never perfect
I know it's not gonna last
I've been waitin' all year
Just to get a chance
Now I've had so many
I can hardly stand
Well my body's runnin' over
But my lips want one more
Now it's easy to see
Why there is no doubt
Let me buy-y
One for the road
Let me buy-y
One for the road
Hey bartender
Give us one more round
Tonight we're gonna get up
And shoot things down
Well you better keep on walkin'
Cause we gave you enough
I told you once before
You be-be-be-better slow down
Well my body's runnin' over
But my lips want one more
Now it's easy to see
Why there is no doubt
Let me buy-y
One for the road
Let me buy-y
One for the road
I made last call
At a quarter to three
I'm tryin' to drive my pick-up
While I can't even see
I tell enough stories
Of what my life is about
Then I decided I needed
one one one more
But the cop that pulls up
Says, Can I take you home?
I think you can see
That there is no doubt
Let me buy-y
One for the road
Let me buy-y
One for the road
Let me buy-y
One for the road
Give me one one one
When I saw you standing there
Right across the room
Short on cash, long on class
She knew she'd found her fool
And I can't deny
Can't keep my eyes off you
Looked everywhere, now I swear
I must have missed a clue
They always say, you look away
When you know you're gonna lose
I can't deny
Any thing's worth a woman like you
Took a look from higher ground
Nowhere to go but down
There's candlelight, diamonds bright
There are kings and queens
The fear inside is that we'll find
That they're just common thieves
And they can't deny
They're living beyond there means
Took a look from higher ground
Nowhere to go but down
High on the mountain top
Built on shaky ground
The rains are coming
And there's trouble all around
The river's rising
And the bridge is washing out
Your shop is sinking
And there's nowhere to go but down
On this road all alone I hope you're gonna find
Your heart of stone cuts to the bone
To get to the bottom line and you can't deny
No but you better believe
Took a look from higher ground
Nowhere to go but down
Took a look from higher ground
Nowhere to go but down
Took a look from higher ground
Nowhere to go but down
Nowhere to go but down
Nowhere to go but down
Nowhere to go but down
Poor old man came from Mississippi
Nothin'on his mind but a cheap fifth of whiskey
Playin' his guitar, got into the city
Workin' on the streets just to make a living
Well he could sing those coffee house blues
Mississippi John made it look so easy
Cigarette behind his ear
His eye are lookin' misty
Really let go when the bottle's half empty
Singing it loud, his voice is kinda gritty
He knows he's got nothin' to prove
He spends his time playin' in the city
Won't you lay your money down
Watchful eyes for someone who will listen
Won't you lay your money down
Everybody said he'd be better off leavin'
And he knew in his heart
That he better start believing
Better use the talent
That the good lord gave him
To get out of this place
He don't need a good reason
He's giving heart and soul to you
He spends his time playin' in the city
Won't you lay your money down
Watchful eyes for someone who will listen
Won't you lay your money down
Look downtown see the man on the corner
Working so hard just get a dollar
People walk my want to call him a beggar
Don't want too much
He's just taking what they offer
Well he's playing each note for you
Well he spends his time playin' in the city
Won't you lay your money down
Watchful eyes for someone who will listen
I wake up every morning
Into another day
Oh, when tomorrow comes
You'll find me on my way
Ain't got' nobody now
To help me along
It's harder to make it
When you feel you don't belong
Oh, hard times are over me
Yeah, I can hear that whistle blowin'
Seein' who's gonna change
Gonna take a ride tonight
Ain't never comin' back
Ain't got no money
To help me again
There's nothin' left for me
So, I guess I'm on my way
Oh, hard times are over me
Yeah, oh, save me
Rock and rollin' listen to my stutterin'
Don't you ever regret the past
Yesterday has come and gone
But tomorrow's gonna last
Ain't got nobody now
To help me along
It's hard to make it
When you feel you don't belong
Oh, hard times are over me
Oh, I'm sayin'
Walking with your eyes closed down a dead end street
You think you?re never coming back
That?s when your heart begins to bleed, yeah
Wandering in circles and you don?t know where to go
Let me take the rain
Let me take the pain
And wash it away
I?d do anything, give anything for you
When your love?s blinded my eyes can see, yeah
I?d do anything, give everything it?s true
Feel what I?m feeling, make you a believer
I?ll be your faith healer
Came without a warning, tore your world apart
Lost dreams and bad memories
Have dept me in the dark, yeah, yeah
You can keep running, running from the shadows of the past
Let me clear the rain
Let me take the pain
And wash it away
I?d do anything, give anything for you
When your love?s blinded my eyes can see, yeah
I?d do anything, give everything it?s true
Feel what I?m feeling, make you a believer
I?ll be your faith healer
Walking with your eyes closed
Down a dead end street
You think you?re never coming back
That?s when your heart begins to bleed
I?d do anything, give anything for you
When your love?s blinded my eyes can see
I?d do anything, give everything it?s true
Feel what I?m feeling, make you a believer
I?ll be your faith healer
I?d do anything, give anything for you
When your love?s blinded my eyes can see, yeah
I?d do anything, give everything it?s true
Feel what I?m feeling, make you a believer
I?ll be your faith healer
I?ll be your faith healer
You can keep on pushing
But I know you're never gonna fight
You better keep on looking
'Cause it's written down in black and white
Seven come eleven, you're rolling snake eyes
Every time you roll the dice
There's some good old blood
I'd help if I could
But don't you know my hands are tied
You got your back to the wall
Should you raise or call?
I wouldn't take that chance
You got the dead man's hand
The light in the tunnel
Is gonna be a rumbling train
Loaded full of trouble
The next stop has got your name
You got a one-way ticket on a dead end track
You take it on down the line
Before you knew what hit ya
You were flat on your back
But you thought that you were doing alright
You got your back to the wall
Should you raise or call?
I wouldn't take that chance
You got the dead man's hand
You stay on top to get a roll
You never stop till you lose it all
Yeah, you were hot but now you're cold
Watch another one take the fall
You gonna keep on talking
Hoping you can justify
Tell your story when you're walking
'Cause the wishing well is running dry
You getting highs and lows
And the lady knows you're playing for your life
You're a dead man holding aces and eights
And your luck's fun out this time
You got your back to the wall
Should you raise or call?
I wouldn't take that chance
You got the dead man's hand
You got your back to the wall
Should you raise or call?
I wouldn't take that chance
A gifted man, he works so smooth
Slight of hand, his every move
Twist of fate has touched his life
Slap to the face, he won?t rise and shine
Innocence has lost its style, ooh
Look at these eyes of sorrow
See in this face of pain
Look through the eyes of tomorrow
See this face of shame
Flood of lies keep getting deeper
Nowhere to hide, come down with cold fever
Love is blind now you see
You got cold, cold fever
Alibis keep getting cheaper
No way to fight, come down with cold fever
No surprise, you fall to pieces
You got cold, cold fever
To leave his past he?d sell his soul
The truth at last will let him go
Tells himself he?s justified
Emotions burning deep inside
As a shadow fades into the night, ooh
Look at these eyes of sorrow
See in this face of pain
Look through the eyes of tomorrow
See this face of shame
Flood of lies keep getting deeper
Nowhere to hide, come down with cold fever
Love is blind now you see
You got cold, cold fever
Alibis keep getting cheaper
No way to fight, come down with cold fever
No surprise, you fall to pieces
Look outside your window, see where ya been
Ya see morning shadows coming on again
Make your sacrifice if you play to win
Someone will pay the price
When you?re living in the cradle of sin
I know I?ll see you in the city
I see you walking on the streets
Raise your hands to the people that you meet
And you watch them walk away again
Can you see me? Can you hear me?
In the city of kings
Can you see me? Can you hear me?
In the city of kings
Bright lights shining down all over me
See a man laying on the ground
In such pain and misery
I see you walking in the city
I know I?ll see you on the street
Raise your hands to the people that you meet
And you watch them walk away again
Can you see me? Can you hear me?
In the city of kings
Can you see me? Can you hear me?
In the city of kings
Sleep on the measly pillow
Sleep well, my friend
Sip on your sarsaparilla
Take a trip back home again
I know I?ll see you in the city
I see you walking on the streets
Raise your hands to the people that you meet
And you watch them walk away again
Can you see me? Can you hear me?
In the city of kings
Can you see me? Can you hear me?
When the road seems too long
And I know where I belong
On the south road
When grief seems to set in
It's the love that I find
But I just don't have the time
It's a wish to be near you
It's being there
Ohh when I want to be there
For ya baby yeah yeah
Be there for you
All for you
I think of you
When I know
It's gettin' harder and harder
To let go
What was once
Only mine yesterday
You were my love
And my friend
You held on
To the very end
It's the pain and the loss
Of not being there
Ohh when I want to be there
For ya baby yeah whoooh
Be there for you
All for you baby
Oh when I wanna be there
For ya baby yeah whoaoh
Be there for you
All for you
It's a sad song that I sing
But I'll never let it bring
A bring me down
And bring my heart lower too
It's the leaves on the trees
It's a south wind
That's stirring me
It's just the season
A sensation of being there
Oh when I wanna be there
For ya baby yeah whoaoh
Be there for you
All for you
Girl, I left the light on last night
But you didn?t show
I tried to call till daylight
But you were never home, oh, no
Now you?re knocking at my door
Saying it ain?t what it seems
You tell me things I want to hear
Things I can?t believe
Everything you do
Everywhere you go
My eyes see through
All this trash, you?re talking
Got you hanging on the noose
And you still believe that I
Won?t turn my back on you
You just keep forgetting
To remember all your lies
If you think, I still need you
You got amnesia
Took you to the red roulette
Where they all knew your name
I lost you for an hour, girl
And it?s driving me insane
You?re spinning me in circles
Trying to make a fool of me
And I usually ain?t suspicious
But I'm not too blind to see
Everything you do
Everywhere you go
My eyes see through
All this trash, you?re talking
Got you hanging on the noose
And you still believe that I
Won?t turn my back on you
You just keep forgetting
To remember all your lies
If you think, I still need you
You got amnesia
All this trash, you?re talking
Got you hanging on the noose
And you still believe that I
Won?t turn my back on you
You just keep forgetting
To remember all your lies
If you think, I still need you
Another town along the road
Getting ready for the show tonight
Killing time we sit and wait
Now's your turn to take the stage tonight
You know we've seen so many faces
From sea to sea
You know we've played so many places
They're all the same to me
Wild America, It's all I want, and it's all I need
Wild America, Home of the free
Waiting for the night to fall
For the time when you can leave it all behind
The lights go down, the show begins
Hear the sound, and you lose all sense of time
You know we've seen things come
Together in this dream
You know that this won't last
Forever so come along with me
Wild America, It's all I want, and it's all I need
Wild America, Home of the free
Feel the power and you'll believe
Live for the music that knocks you off your feet
It takes you where you wanna be
Love it up, cause it's down to you and me
You know we've seen so many faces
From sea to sea
You know we've played so many places
Thinking back seems like yesterday
I was running free chasing shadows
On a summer day
I was flying high to places far away
Tell me why blue skies turned to grey
Sometimes things aren't always what they seem
Sometimes the truth remains unseen
Shattered, while I'm chasing down a dream
Shattered, a little time is all I need
Ride the wind all I ever wanted to do
Sail away in the seven seas so blue
A falling star can make your dream come true
Ding for a day in a castle made for two
Sometimes things aren't always what they seem
Sometimes the truth remains unseen
Shattered, while I'm chasing down a dream
Shattered, a little time is all I need
Shattered, while I'm chasing down a dream
Shattered, a little time is all I need
Burning sun blazing down on me
Crazy moon won't ever set me free
Painted sky such a sight to see
Give me time that's all I need
Sometimes things aren't always what they seem
Sometimes the truth remains unseen
Shattered, while I'm chasing down a dream
Shattered, a little time is all I need
Shattered, I been chasing down a dream
The way she sees me
She's always leads me
Thru the night
She's out to tease me
With a glance
I take a chance
From the start
I'm in a trance
It's time you're mine
She's just taken you for a ride
You're alone
Out on your own
And then you know
Know she lied
Chorus 1:
Some other deal
Some other way
I hate to say
Don't you know
Love's a bitch
Some other deal
Some other way
All I can say
Don't you know
Love's a bitch
(Love's a bitch)
The road to a mountain
Seems so long the farther you get
You sing the same old song, yeah
As I get higher
I feel the fire
Oh you're my one desire
In time you're fine
And she's just taken you for a ride
You're alone
Out on your own
And then you know
Know she lied, yeah
Chorus 1
Oh yeah yeah yeah
Chorus 2:
Some other deal
Some other way
All I can say
Don't you know
Love's a bitch
Some other deal
Some other way
All I can say
Don't you know
Love's a bitch
Don't you know
Love's a bitch
Put out the booze
Cause you can't lose
I hate to break ya
Of all the bad news
Now here's the thing
To keep you straight
You gotta get up
But you know it's too late
It's time you're mine
She's just taken you for a ride
You're alone
Out on your own
And then you know
Know she lied
Chorus 2
Some other deal
Some other way
I hate to say
Don't you know
Love's a bitch
Some other deal
Some other way
I hate to say
But don't you know
Love's a bitch
Well don't you know
Lonely nights out on the run
Can't beat the heat of a smokin' gun
Moonlight in the mirror
As the city sleeps, death over me
It's been a long hard road
I can't fight it, it's out of control
Somebody save me
Runnin' for my life, it's hangin' by a thread
I can't get any closer to you yet
Hard luck's knockin' on my back door
It's easy to see why they're comin' for me
'Cause I'm guilty, guilty, guilty in the first degree
Can't get the chip off my shoulder
Just eighteen but I feel the choker
One bad trip changed my life
I've been doin' wrong, now I come on strong
I let each day pass
In the shadow of the last
Somebody save me
Runnin' for my life, it's hangin' by a thread
I can't get any closer to you yet
Hard luck's knockin' on my back door
It's easy to see why they're comin' for me
'Cause I'm guilty, guilty, guilty in the first degree
Just another fallen angel
With a will to survive
I don't know where to go
No where to run, no where to hide
I'm guilty, yeah
I'm guilty
Guilty, you know I'm guilty
Guilty, oh yeah
Guilty, guilty
Runnin' for my life, it's hangin' by a thread
I can't get any closer to you yet
Hard luck's knockin' on my back door
It's easy to see why they're comin' for me
'Cause I'm guilty, guilty, guilty in the first degree
Runnin' for my life, it's hangin' by a thread
I can't get any closer to you yet
Hard luck's knockin' on my back door
It's easy to see why they're comin' for me
Small time people
Got their eyes on you
Never get away with the things you do
Dirty little secrets, dirty little lies
When you're caught red-handed
Then you can't deny
It's a sad situation, got a bad reputation
From the last night out with friends
I'm caught between heartbreak of heaven
And speaking of the devil
Here she comes again
Dirty little secrets, gonna drag you down
Dirty little secrets, goin' round this town
You can hear the whispers behind your back
Living a lie it will never last
People never thinking of the way you feel
One stab in the back can never heal
Couldn't stand the temptation
Didn't need the frustration
Took a gamble I could never win
I'm feeling like a victim of emotion
Forget about demotion
Because, here she comes again
Dirty little secrets, gonna drag you down
Dirty little secrets, goin' round this town
Didn't see it coming when I first met you
New kid in town had nothing to do
Late night caller knockin' at my door
Come to tell me her trouble couldn't take no more
Now I see the complication
Didn't need the aggravation
From the last night out with friends
I'm caught between heartbreak of heaven
And speaking of the devil
Here she comes again
Dirty little secrets, gonna drag you down
One more day gone and pass you by
Got to find a better way
One more night you'll have another try
To take these blues away
People tell me what I need, no, they don?t see
I'm never gonna come around
No, I don?t need them, let everybody see
It?s never gonna bring me down
I know, I?ve seen it before
When lady luck takes you for a ride
She leaves you out in the cold
She leaves you out of control
But things are gonna change
As time goes by
Lord, as time goes by
Remember days long ago
When I never thought I would be alone
Different days in a different life
Never be here no more
People tell me what I need, no, they don?t see
I?m never gonna come around
No, I don?t need them, let everybody see
It?s never gonna bring me down
I know, I?ve seen it before
When lady luck takes you for a ride
She leaves you out in the cold
She leaves you out of control
But things are gonna change
As time goes by
You know you got to hold on
Some dreams will never die
Things are gonna change
As time goes by
Endless nights all alone
They're gone with the wind
Said goodbye, yes, I let them go
Never be here again
People tell me what I need, no, they don?t see
I?m never gonna come around
No, I don?t need them, let everybody see
It?s never gonna bring me down
I know, I?ve seen it before
When lady luck takes you for a ride
She leaves you out in the cold
She leaves you out of control
But things are gonna change
As time goes by
You know you got to hold on
Some dreams will never die
Things are gonna change
As time goes by
I know, I?ve seen it before
When lady luck takes you for a ride
She leaves you out in the cold
She leaves you out of control
But things are gonna change
As time goes by
You know you got to hold on
Some dreams will never die
Things are gonna change
I don't know what you might've been told
But the rumors are here
But my girl gets away
With a ball and chain
And I can't see what you want from me
We're runnin' out of time
That girl, she never tells me
Just what's on her mind
Oh, I've been tryin' for 28 days
To make things come out right
And she'll be cryin' for 28 days
'Cause I won't be home tonight
Well, I can't see or feel another deal
Unless you send it back on me
The things you do
Drive me to insanity
And I tell you to find someone new
And cast your wicked spell
How long I'll hold on
The rollin' stone don't care
Oh, I've been tryin' for 28 days
To make things come out right
And she'll be cryin' for 28 days
'Cause I won't be home tonight
Oh, I feel so hard to say goodbye
With love deep down inside
I found another
To take me home tonight
Sure enough, gonna have my fun
Wanna hear my lady scream
She alone can take me
To the edge of my primal scream
Oh, I've been tryin' for 28 days
To make things come out right
And she'll be cryin' for 28 days
'Cause I won't be home tonight
Well, oh, I've been tryin' for 28 days
To make things come out right
And she'll be cryin' for 28 days
'Cause I won't be home tonight
Well, oh, I've been tryin' for 28 days
To make things come out right
And she'll be cryin' for 28 days
The way she sees me
She's always leads me
Thru the night
She's out to tease me
With a glance
I take a chance
From the start
I'm in a trance
It's time you're mine
She's just taken you for a ride
You're alone
Out on your own
And then you know
Know she lied
Chorus 1:
Some other deal

Love's a bitch
Some other deal
Some other way
All I can say
Don't you know

(Love's a bitch)
The road to a mountain
Seems so long the farther you get
You sing the same old song, yeah
As I get higher
I feel the fire
Oh you're my one desire
In time you're fine
And she's just taken you for a ride
You're alone
Out on your own
And then you know
Know she lied, yeah
Chorus 1
Oh yeah yeah yeah
Chorus 2:
Some other deal
Some other way
All I can say
Don't you know
Love's a bitch
Some other deal
Some other way
All I can say
Don't you know
Love's a bitch
Don't you know
Love's a bitch
Put out the booze
Cause you can't lose
I hate to break ya
Of all the bad news
Now here's the thing
To keep you straight
You gotta get up
But you know it's too late
It's time you're mine
She's just taken you for a ride
You're alone
Out on your own
And then you know
Know she lied
Chorus 2
Some other deal
Some other way
I hate to say
Don't you know
Love's a bitch
Some other deal
Some other way
I hate to say
But don't you know
Love's a bitch
Well don't you know
Oh, not since when we met,
Our first time I will never forget.
Oh, since the things you put me through,
I'm was so sublime in love with you.
Oh, since you took my surprise,
Gonna have you, have you baby, but now I realize . . .
Well, it's no mystery,
The things you do to me, oh oh,
You won't set me free.
I go dancin', dancing with a gypsy.
I go dancin', dancing with a gypsy.
Yes, you've got that spark in your eye,
Such a lucky charm to have on my side.
Yeah, since you make your presence known,
I better be a'get away before too long.
Yeah, since you fill me with these lies,
Tell me all those lies, in you I'd have denial.
Well, it's no mystery,
The things you do to me, oh oh,
You won't set me free.
I go dancin', dancing with a gypsy.
I go dancin', dancing with a gypsy.
Well, it's no mystery,
The things you do to me, oh oh,
You won't set me free.
I go dancin', dancing with a gypsy.
I go dancin', dancing with a gypsy.
Oh, coming through the winds tonight,
Show me the mirrored reflection, make me die of fright.
Faster, oh faster, I'm under your spell,
I finally feel I get away but only time will tell.
Yeah, except there's nowhere left to run,
Sittin' on top of the world, but I'm having fun.
Well, it's no mystery,
The things you do to me, oh oh,
You won't set me free.
I go dancin', dancing with a gypsy.

Ich lebe unerhört solide
und habe nie ein Rendezvous
Ich gehe höchstens mit den Eltern ein Stück spazieren-
ab und zu!
Mein Vater sagt, so muß das bleiben
und dafür schenkt er mir Konfekt.
Doch neulich platzte mir der Kragen
weil mir Konfekt nunmal nicht schmeckt!
Ich will keine Schokolade
ich will lieber einen Mann!
Ich will einen der mich küssen
und um den Finger wickeln kann!
Ich hatte neulich grad Geburtstag
und diesen Tag vergess' ich nie,
denn alle Tanten und Verwandten
waren mit von der Partie.
Sie brachten Rosen und Narzissen
und Schokolade zentnerschwer.
Da hat's mich plötzlich fortgerissen,
ich schrie: "Ich will das Zeug nicht mehr!".
Ich will keine Schokolade
ich will lieber einen Mann!
Ich will einen der mich küssen
und um den Finger wickeln kann!
Ich kaufte Sonntag auf dem Rummel
für 20 Pfenning mir ein Los.
Ich hab auch wirklich was gewonnen,
doch die Enttäuschung die war groß.
Denn ich gewann dort einen Teddy
aus Schokolad' und Marzipan
die schmiss ich wütend in die Menge
und schrie den Losverkäufer an:
Ich will keine Schokolade
ich will lieber einen Mann!
Ich will einen der mich küssen
und um den Finger wickeln kann!
Ich will einen der mich küssen
und um den Finger wickeln kann!
Wenn man Abschied nimmt,
geht nach unbestimmt,
mit dem Wind, wie Blätter weh'n,
sing ma et Abschiedsleed,
dat sich öm Fernweh drieht,
um Horizont, Salz und Teer.
Wer singe Püngel schnürt,
söök, wo er hinjehürt,
et wie ne Zuch fuhr,
nit nur ein Zuhuss.
Man läßt vieles hier,
Freund ich danke dir,
für den Kuß, den letzten Gruß.
Ich will weiter gehn,
keine Tränen sehn,
so ein Abschied ist lang noch kein Tod.
Niemals geht man so ganz
irgendwas von mir bleibt hier
es hat seinen Platz
immer bei dir. Wenn et auch noch so sticht, denn wer in d'r Kält
keen Zukunft sieht,
maach enem Vagabund
doch et Hätz net wund,
fliech e Stück mit
op singem Weech.
Doch dann lass mich los,
sieh die Welt ist groß,
ohne Freiheit bin ich fast schon wie tot.
Niemals geht man so ganz,
irgendwas von mir bleibt hier,
es hat seinen Platz immer bei dir.
Niemals geht man so ganz,
irgendwas von mir bleibt hier,
es hat seinen Platz immer bei dir.
Ich verspreche dir,
wenn zurück bei dir,
wenn der Wind von Süden weht.
Ich saach nit 'leb wohl',
dat Wort dat kling wie Hohn,
völlig hohl 'maach et joot'.
Sieh, ich weine auch,
Tränen sind wie Rauch,
sie vergehn, dieser Käfig macht mich tot.
Niemals geht man so ganz,
irgendwas von mir bleibt hier,
es hat seinen Platz immer bei dir.
Niemals geht man so ganz,
irgendwas von mir bleibt hier,
es hat seinen Platz immer bei dir.
Nie verläßt man sich ganz,
irgendwas von dir geht mit,
es hat seinen Platz immer bei mir.
I WANNA BE WITH YOU
DON’T WANNA BE WITHOUT YOU
EVERY SINGLE STEP OF THE WAY
YOU KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU
AND I WANT YOU TO LOVE ME TOO
SHOW ME WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO
TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE
YOU SAY I’M NO ONE, I’M SINGING NO FUN
ARE YOU HAVING FUN
AND I’M STANDING HERE WAITING FOR SOMETHING
TO COME ‘COS I WANT MORE
(I’VE ALWAYS WANTED MORE)
I’M WAITING ON THE OUTSIDE
I WANNA GET INSIDE YOU
I’M GONNA GET UNDER YOUR SKIN
WE’RE RUNNING ON EMPTY
BUT YOU NEVER WILL FORGET ME
WHATEVER WILL BE WILL BE
AND YOU KNOW THAT MEN THEY COME AND GO
ASK ANY GIRL YOU KNOW
IT’S THE SAME WHEREVER YOU GO
TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE
YOU SAY I’M NO ONE, I’M SINGING NO FUN
ARE YOU HAVING FUN
AND I’M STANDING HERE WAITING FOR SOMETHING
TO COME ‘COS I WANT MORE
(I’VE ALWAYS WANTED MORE)
YOU KNOW I LOVE
I LOVE TO RUN AWAY
I’LL KNOCK ME OUT
AND LOOK THE OTHER WAY
YOU TRY AND HIDE FROM
WHAT I’VE DONE
BUT EXTRA EXTRA READ ALL ABOUT ME!
TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE
YOU SAY I’M NO ONE, I’M SINGING NO FUN
ARE YOU HAVING FUN
AND I’M STANDING HERE WAITING FOR SOMETHING
TO COME ‘COS I WANT MORE
BIRDS OF FEATHER DIE TOGETHER
AND IN THESE DIRTY STREETS STORMY WEATHER
THE JURY OF THE LIARS PREACH THEIR JUDGEMENT CALL
BIRDS OF FEATHER DIE TOGETHER
ALL THE LOVERS AND THE LOSERS IN THE WORLD
AND ALL THE PRAYERS AND THE SINNERS IN THE WORLD
ALL THE DRUGS IN LONDON TOWN JUST GET ME DOWN
AND ALL THE DRUNKS THEY LET ME DOWN
BUTTERFLIES STILL FLY IN THE DARKNESS
AND WHEN I'M FEELING TOTALLY HOPELESS
I LOOK TO YOU AND SEE ALL MY LIES ARE TRUE
BUTTERFLIES STILL FLY IN MY DARKNESS
ALL THE LOVERS AND THE LOSERS IN THE WORLD
AND ALL THE PRAYERS AND THE SINNERS IN THE WORLD
ALL THE DRUGS IN LONDON TOWN JUST GET ME DOWN
AND ALL THE DRUNKS THEY LET ME DOWN
PROVING A POINT NEVER WAS SO SHARP
QUESTION TURNS TO AN EXCLAMATION MARK
YEAH I MADE SOME MISTAKES BUT DON'T WE ALL
PROVING A POINT NEVER WAS SO SHARP
ALL THE LOVERS AND THE LOSERS IN THE WORLD
AND ALL THE PRAYERS AND THE SINNERS IN THE WORLD
ALL THE DRUGS IN LONDON TOWN JUST GET ME DOWN
ALL MY FRIENDS ARE SLUTS AND JUNKIES
BEHAVING BADLY LIKE A BUNCH OF MONKEYS
JESUS CHRIST WAS AN ONLY CHILD
AND OUR BROTHERS KILLED HIM
WE ARE THE WILD
THIS WORLD'S NOT FOR ME
SEE HOW MUCH I DON'T BELIEVE
COS I'M FRAYED AT THE EDGES
TORN APART AT THE SEAMS
I'M LOOKING DOWN IN THE MIRROR
I DON'T LIKE WHAT I SEE
COS I'M FRAYED ATTHE EDGES
TORN APART AT THE SEAMS
I GOTTA TELL THEE..
THE FUTURE'S ABOUT SPACE AND MONEY
WHAT YOU THINK NOW'S GONNER BE YOUR REALITY
I SEE THE UNIVERSE RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME
HISTORY BLEED'S LIKE A PIG ON TOP OF ME
I'M HANGING FROM THE TREE
MY BLOOD FLOWS INTO THE SEA
COS I'M FRAYED AT THE EDGES
TORN APART AT THE SEAMS
I'M LOOKING DOWN IN THE MIRROR
I DON'T LIKE WHAT I SEE
COS I'M FRAYED AT THE EDGES
TORN APART AT THE SEAMS
I GOTTA TELL THEE..
I GOTTA TELL THEE..
I GOTTA TELL THEE..
COS I'M FRAYED AT THE EDGES
TORN APART AT THE SEAMS
I'M LOOKING DOWN IN THE MIRROR
It's like someone who's dead who hasn't
Who hasn't even been born
It's like someone who has everything
And yet, feels nothing
It's like not knowing where you stand
When your laying down on the floor
You like being unfaithful to someone
You just don't, you just don't have faith
Would you come round for tea
If I gave you your cue would you
Would you?
Wouldn't it be so nice to feel something so real
You wouldn't have to live at all
It's knowing what's in your hand
But having no arm
It's dealing with dice as you know
Someone else should have been dealing
It's making the living on
The lives you are stealing
And having control
Of the things you are feeling
Would you come round for tea
If I gave you your cue would you
Would you?
Wouldn't it be so nice to feel something so real
You wouldn't have to live at all
Wouldn't it be so nice to feel something so real
WE'RE LOOKING THROUGH THE SAME WINDOW IN THE SAME HOUSE
TONIGHT
WANTING THE SAME THINGS IN THE WORLD TONIGHT
WE ALL WANT LOVE BUT WE ALL CRAVE TO FUCK
AND I WANT IT ALL YEAH IN THIS WORLD TONIGHT

RISE UP COME CLEAN COME UP OVER ME
EVERYTHING I BELIEVED WAS WRONG
AND IT STARTED FROM WHERE I CAME FROM (x 2)
