Yes I'm lonely wanna die
Yes I'm lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
In the morning wanna die
In the evening wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
My mother was of the sky
My father was of the earth
But I am of the universe
And you know what it's worth
I'm lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
The eagle picks my eye
The worm he licks my bone
I feel so suicidal
Just like Dylan's Mr. Jones
Lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
Black cloud crossed my mind
Blue mist round my soul
Feel so suicidal
Even hate my rock and roll
Wanna die yeah wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Baby, don't get too tight with me
Yes, you're far too tight for me
I got your messages
And how can I resist
But if you come around
Don't slap the cuffs upon my wrist
Baby you're tight for me
(I warn you) yeah
Far too tight for me
Yeah
Untie those sheep shanks, yes
And all those fancy knots
I'm not Houdini, honey
C'mon now and loosen up
(Tight)
(Too tight)
(Too tight)
(Too tight)
Yeah, don't try to reel me in
With all those charm school looks
I've seen it all a thousand times
I sung that song, I wrote that fucking book
Do yourself a favor now
Don't drive me 'round the block
Let's split another bottle, now
Let's take a hit, loosen up
Don't get too tight on me
'Cause I'm, I'm bound so tight I can't breathe
We'll watch the sun go down
Upon the swollen sea
Aahhhhhh
If you try to chain me up
I'll vanish like a broken dream
Don't get so tight
Don't get so tight
I'm a gonna raise a fuss, I'm a-gonna raise a holler
About a-workin' all summer just a-trying to earn a dollar
Every time I call my baby, try to get a date
The boss says "No dice son you gotta work a-late"
Some times I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the Summertime Blues
Well my Mom and Pappa told me "Son you gotta earn some
money
If you wanna use the car to go a riding next Sunday"
Well I didn't got to work told the boss I was sick
"Now you can't use the car cause you didn't work a lick"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the Summertime Blues
It's gonna take two weeks for I have my vacation,
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations.
Well I told my congress man and he said, quote:
"I'd like to help you son but you're too young to vote"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do,
I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain
But it's all right now, in fact,
it's a gas!
But it's all right now, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash
It's a gas! Gas! Gas!
I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag
I was schooled with a strap right across my back
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right now, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash
It's a gas! Gas! Gas!
I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead
I fell down to my feet and I saw they bled
I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread
I was crowned with a spike right thru my head
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right now, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash
It's a gas! Gas! Gas!
Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses couldn't drag me away
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or off stage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses couldn't drag me away
I know I've dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken tears must be cried
Let's do some living after we die
Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses we'll ride them someday
Wild horses, couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses we'll ride them someday
People think I'm crazy, they're always tryin' to waste me
make me burn the candle right down,
but baby, baby, I don't need no jewels in my crown.
'Cause all you wimen is low down gamblers,
cheatin' like I don't know how,
but baby, baby, there's fever in the funk house now.
This low down bitchin' got my poor feet a itchin',
don't you know that duece's stay wild.
Baby, I can't stay, you got to roll me
and call me the tumblin' dice.
Always in a hurry, you never stop to worry,
don't you see the time flashin' by.
Honey, got no money,
I'm all sixes and sevens and nines.
Say now, baby, I'm a rank outsider,
you can be my partner in crime.
But baby, I can't stay,
you got to roll me and call me the tumblin',
roll me and call me the tumblin' dice.
Oh, my, my, my, I'm the lone crap shooter,
playin' the field ev'ry night.
Baby, can't stay,
you got to roll me and call me the tumblin' ,
roll me and call me the tumblin' dice.
Got to roll me. Got to roll me.
Love is strong and you're so sweet
You make me hard you make me weak
Love is strong and you're so sweet
And some day, babe we got to meet
A glimpse of you was all it took
A stranger's glance it got me hooked
And I followed you across the stars
I looked for you in seedy bars
What are you scared of, baby
It's more than just a dream
I need some time
We make a beautiful team
Beautiful team
Love is strong and you're so sweet
And some day, babe we got to meet
Just anywhere out in the park
Out on the street and in the dark
I followed you through swirling seas
Down darkened woods with silent trees
Your love is strong and your so sweet
You make me hard you make me weak
I wait for you until the dawn
My mind is ripped my heart is torn
And love is strong and your so sweet
Under my thumb
The girl who once had me down
Under my thumb
The girl who once pushed me around
It's down to me
The difference in the clothes she wears
Down to me, the change has come,
She's under my thumb
Ain't it the truth babe?
Under my thumb
The squirmin' dog who's just had her day
Under my thumb
A girl who has just changed her ways
It's down to me, yes it is
The way she does just what she's told
Down to me, the change has come
She's under my thumb
Ah, ah, say it's alright
Under my thumb
A siamese cat of a girl
Under my thumb
She's the sweetest, hmmm, pet in the world
It's down to me
The way she talks when she's spoken to
Down to me, the change has come,
She's under my thumb
Ah, take it easy babe
Yeah
It's down to me, oh yeah
The way she talks when she's spoken to
Down to me, the change has come,
She's under my thumb
Yeah, it feels alright
Under my thumb
Her eyes are just kept to herself
Under my thumb, well I
I can still look at someone else
It's down to me, oh that's what I said
The way she talks when she's spoken to
Down to me, the change has come,
She's under my thumb
Say, it's alright
Say it's all...
Say it's all...
Take it easy babe
Take it easy babe
Feels alright
Take it, take it easy babe
Well, I told you once and I told you twice,
But ya never listen to my advice
You don't try very hard to please me,
With what you know it should be easy
Well, this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time,
I don't know. Oh no. Oh no
Well, I'm sorry girl but I can't stay
Feelin' like I do today
It's too much pain and too much sorrow,
Guess I'll feel same tomorrow
Well, this could be the last time
This could be [etc...]
Well, told you once and I told you twice,
That someone have to pay the price
But here's a chance to change your mind,
'Cuz I'll be gone a long, long time
Well, this could be the last time
This could be [etc...]
She would never say where she came from
Yesterady don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright or
In the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and go
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday, who could hang a name on you?
When you change with ev'ry new day
Still I'm gonna miss you
Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained to a
Life where nothing's gained and nothing's lost at such a cost
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday, who could hang a name on you?
When you change...
'There's no time to lose'
I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind
Ain't life unkind?
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday, who could hang a name on you?
When you change...
My, my, my, my
Don't you worry 'bout what's on your mind (Oh my)
I'm in no hurry, I can take my time (Oh my)
I'm going red and my tounge's getting tied
I'm off my head and my mouth's getting dry
I'm high, but I try, try, try (Oh my)
Let's spend the night together
Now I need you more than ever
Let's spend the night together now
I feel so strong that I can't disguise (Oh my)
But I just can't apologize (Oh no)
Don't hang me up and don't let me down
We could have fun just groovin' around
Let's spend the night together
Now I need you...
You know I'm smiling, baby
You need some guiding, baby
I'm just deciding, baby, now
I need you more than ever
Let's spend the night together
Let's spend the night together now
This dosn't happen to me ev'ry day (Oh my)
No excuses offered anyway (Oh my)
I'll satisfy your every need
And now I know you'll satisfy me
Let's spend the night together
Now I need you...
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love, both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby it just happens ev'ryday
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not forsee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Hmm, hmm, hmm...
I wanna see it painted black, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah
She comes in colors ev'rywhere,
she combs her hair
She's like a rainbow,
coming, colors in the air
Oh, everywhere, she comes in colors
She comes in colors ev'rywhere,
she combs her hair
She's like a rainbow,
coming, colors in the air
Oh, everywhere, she comes in colors
Have you seen her dressed in blue?
See the sky in front of you
And her face is like a sail,
speck of white so fair and pale
Have you seen a lady fairer?
Have you seen her all in gold?
Like a queen in days of old
She shoots her colors all around like
a sunset going down
Have you seen a lady fairer?
She comes in colors ev'rywhere,
she combs her hair
She's like a rainbow,
coming, colors in the air
Oh, everywhere, she comes in colors
She's like a rainbow,
coming, colors in the air
Oh, everywhere, she comes in colors
I wanna tell you how it's gonna be
You're gonna give your love to me
I'm gonna love you night and day
Love is love and not fade away
Well love is love and not fade away
And my love is bigger than a Cadillac
I'll try to show it if you drive me back
Your love for me has got to be real
Before you'd have noticed how I feel
Love real not fade away
Well love real not fade away
Yeah
I wanna tell you how it's gonna be
You're gonna give your love to me
Love that lasts more than one day
Well love is love and not fade away
Well love is love and not fade away
Well love is love and not fade away
Well love is love and not fade away
Not fade away
Not fade away
Button your lip baby
Button your coat
Let's go out daancing
Go for the throat
Let's bury the hatchet
Wipe out the past
Make love together
Stay on the path
You're not the only one
With mixed emotions
You're not the only ship
Adrift on this ocean
This coming and going
Is driving me nuts
This to-ing and fro-ing
Is hurting my guts
So get off the fence
It's creasing your butt
Life is a party
Let's get out and strut
You're not the only one
With mixed emotions
You're not the only ship
Adrift on this ocean
You're not the only one
That's feeling lonesome
You're not the only one
With mixed emotions
You're not the only one
You're not the only one
You're not the only one
You're not the only one
Let's grab the world
By the scruff of the neck
And drink it down deeply
Let's love it to death
So button your lip
And button your coat
Let's go out and dancing
Let's rock and roll
You're not the only one
With mixed emotions
You're not the only ship
Adrift on this ocean
You're not the only one
That's feeling lonesome
You're not the only one
With mixed emotions
Have You Seen Your Mother Baby, Standing In The Shadow?
Have you seen your mother, baby, standing in the shadow
Have you had another, baby, standing in the shadow?
I'm glad I opened your eyes
The have-nots have tried to freeze you in ice
Have you seen your brother, baby, standing in the shadow
Have you had another baby, standing in the shadow
I was just passing the time
I'm all alone, won't you give all your sympathy to mine
Tell me a story about how you adore me
Live in the shadow, see through the shadow,
Live through the shadow, tear at the shadow
Hate in the shadow, and love in your shadowy life
Have you seen your lover, baby, standing in the shadow
Has he had another baby, standing in the shadow
Baby, where have you been all your life
Talking about all the people who should try anything twice
Have you seen your mother, baby, standing in the shadow
Have you had another baby, standing in the shadow
You take your choice at this time
The brave old world or the slide to the depths of decline
Well I never kept a dollar past sunset,
It always burned a hole in my pants.
Never made a school mama happy,
Never blew a second chance on love.
I need a love to keep me happy,
I need a love to keep me happy.
Baby, baby keep me happy.
Baby, baby keep me happy.
Always took candy from strangers,
Didn't wanna get me no trade.
Never want to be like papa,
Working for the boss ev'ry night and day.
I need a love to keep me happy,
I need a love, baby won't ya keep me happy.
Baby, won't ya keep me happy.
Baby, please keep me
I need a love to keep me happy,
I need a love to keep me happy.
Baby, baby keep me happy.
Baby, baby keep me happy.
Never got a flash out of cocktails,
When I got some flesh off the bone.
Never got a lift out of Lear jets,
When I can fly way back home.
I need a love to keep me happy,
I need a love to keep me happy.
Baby, baby keep me happy.
Well, baby use to stay out all night long
She made me cry, she done me wrong
She hurt my eyes open, that's no lie
Tables turning, now her turn to cry
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
Well, she used to run around with ev'ry man in town
Spent all my money playing a highclass game
She put me out, it was a pity how I cried
The tables turning now, her turn to cry
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
Well, I used to wake 'the morning, get my breakfast in bed
When I gotten worried she could ease my aching head
But now she's here and there with every man in town
Still trying to take me for that same old clown
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
Because I used to love her, but it's all over now
I met a gin-soaked, bar-room queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
She had to heave me right across shoulder
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind
It's the Honky Tonk Women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
I laid a divorcée in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
The lady then she covered me with roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind
It's the Honky Tonk Women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's the Honky Tonk Women
Gimme, gimme...
Alright!
It's the Honky Tonk Women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
Yeah, it's the Honky Tonk Women
Gimme, gimme...
When I come home baby
And I've been working all night long
I put my daughter on my knee
And she say 'Daddy, what's wrong?'
She whisper in my ear so sweet
You know what she says?
She say Oo daddy you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why
You know I got a woman
And she live in a poor part of town
And I go see her sometimes
And we make love so fine
I put my head on her shoulder
She says, 'Tell me all your troubles'
You know what she says?
She say Oo daddy you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why
She say Oooo daddy you're a fool to cry
Oooo daddy you're a fool to cry
Oooo daddy you're a fool to cry

Even my friends say to me sometimes
And make out like I don't understand them
You know what they say?
They say Oo daddy you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why

To change your mind

You're too deep in
You can't get out
You're just a poor girl in a rich man's house
Yeah, baby, I'm crying over you
Don't you know promises were never made to keep?
Just like the night, dissolve in sleep
I'll be your savior, steadfast and true
I'll come to your emotional rescue
I'll come to your emotional rescue
Yeah, the other night, crying
Crying baby, yeah I'm crying
Yeah I'm like a child baby

Child yeah, I'm like a child, like a child

I was dreaming last night
Last night I was dreaming
How you'd be mine, but I was crying
Like a child, yeah, I was crying
Crying like a child
You will be mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, all mine
You could be mine, could be mine
Be mine, all mine

So stealthy, so animal quiet
I'll be your savior, steadfast and true
I'll come to your emotional rescue
I'll come to your emotional rescue
Yeah, you should be mine, mine, whew
Yes, you could be mine
Tonight and every night
I will be your knight in shining armour
Coming to your emotional rescue
You will be mine, you will be mine, all mine
You will be mine, you will be mine, all mine
I will be your knight in shining armour
Riding across the desert with a fine Arab charger
Well you bit my lip and drew first blood
And warmed my cold, cold heart
And your wrote your name right on my back
Boy your nails were sharp
Don't stop
Honey don't stop
Don't stop
Baby don't stop
Well I love your screams of passion
In the long hot summer night
But you pepper me with poison darts
And twisted in your knife
Don't stop
Honey don't stop
Don't stop
Baby don't stop
Well the only thing I ask of you
Is to hand me back some pride
Don't you dump me on some dusty street
And hang me out to dry
Don't stop
Honey don't stop
Baby don't stop
Baby don't stop
Honey
I'm losing you
I know your heart is miles away
There's a whisper there where once there was a storm
And all that's left is that image that I'll find a way
And some memories have tattered as they've torn
Don't stop
Don't stop
Baby don't stop
Baby don't stop
Honey baby don't stop
Honey honey
Baby don't stop
Baby don't stop
Come on honey honey don't stop
Well baby
Baby don't stop
Baby baby don't stop
My honey don't stop
Don't ya stop
I live in an apartment on the ninety-ninth floor
of my block
And I sit at home looking out the window
Imagining the world has stopped
Then in flies a guy who's all dressed up
like a Union Jack
And says, I've won five pounds if I have his
kind of detergent pack
I say, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby
The telephone is ringing
I say, 'Hi, it's me. Who is there on the line?'
A voice says, 'Hi, hello, how are you?'
Well, I guess I'm doin' fine
He says, 'It's three a.m., there's too much noise
Don't you people ever wanna go to bed ?
Just 'cause you feel so good, do you have
to drive me out of my head?'
I say, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby
I was sick and tired, fed up with this
And decided to take a drive downtown
It was so very queit and peaceful
There was nobody, not a soul around
I laid myself out, I was so tired
And I started to dream
In the morning the parking tickets were just
like a flag stuck on my window screen
I say, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby
I say, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
Oh, Angie, Oh, Angie, when will those dark clouds disappear
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, Angie, you can't say we never tried
Angie, you're beautiful, but ain't it time we said goodbye
Angie, I still love you, remember all those nights we cried
All the dreams we held so close seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here
Oh, Angie, don't you weep, all your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie, ain't it time we said goodbye
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But angie, I still love you baby, ev'rywhere I look I see your eyes
There ain't a woman that comes close to you, come on baby, dry your eyes
But Angie, Angie ain't it good to be alive
Angie, Angie, they can't say we never tried
Gold Coast slaveship bound for cotton fields
Sold in a market down in New Orleans
Scarred old slaver know he's doin' alright
Hear him whip the women just around midnight
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good
Brown sugar, just like a young girl should
Drums beating, cold English blood runs hot
Lady of the house wond'rin where it's gonna stop
House boy knows that he's doin' alright
You should a heard him just around midnight
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good
Brown sugar, just like a young girl should
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good

You should have heard me just around midnight
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good
Brown sugar, just like a young girl should
I said yeah, I said yeah, I said yeah, I said oh
just like a black girl should
You're the kind of person
You meet at certain dismal dull affairs
Center of a crowd, talking much too loud
Running up and down the stairs
Well, it seems to me that you have seen
Too much in too few years
And though you've tried, you just can't hide
Your eyes are edged with tears
You better stop, a-look around
Here it comes, here it comes
Here it comes, here it comes
Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown
When you were a child, you were treated kind
But you were never brought up right
A-you were always spoiled with a thousand toys
But still you cried all night
Your mother, who neglected you
Owes a million dollars tax
And your father's still perfecting ways
Of making sealing wax
You better stop, a-look around
Here it comes, here it comes
Here it comes, here it comes
Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown
Oh, who's to blame? That girl's just insane
Well, nothing I do don't seem to work
It only seems to make matters worse, oh please
You were still in school when you had that fool
Who really messed your mind
And after that you turned your back
On treating people kind
On our first trip
I tried so hard to rearrange your mind
But after while I realized
You were disarranging mine
You better stop, look around
Here it comes, here it comes
Here it comes, here it comes
Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown
Oh, who's to blame? That girl's just insane
Well, nothing I do don't seem to work
It only seems to make matters worse, oh please
When you were a child, you were treated kind
But you were never brought up right
A-you were always spoiled with a thousand toys
But still you cried all night
Your mother, who neglected you
Owes a million dollars tax
And your father's still perfecting ways
Of making sealing wax
You better stop, a-look around
Here it comes
Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown
Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown
Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown
Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown
Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown
If you start me up
If you start me up I'll never stop
If you start me up
If you start me up I'll never stop
I've been running hot
You got me ticking gonna blow my top
If you start me up
If you start me up I'll never stop
You make a grown man cry
Spread out the oil, the gasoline
I walk smooth, ride in a mean, mean machine
Start it up
If you start it up
Kick on the starter give it all you got, you got, you got
I can't compete with the riders in the other heats
If you rough it up
If you like it you can slide it up, slide it up
Don't make a grown man cry
My eyes dilate, my lips go green
My hands are greasy
She's a mean, mean machine
Start it up
If start me up
Give it all you got
You got to never, never, never stop
Never, never
Slide it up
You make a grown man cry
Ride like the wind at double speed
I'll take you places that you've never, never seen
Start it up
Love the day when we will never stop, never stop
Never stop, never stop
Tough me up
Never stop, never stop, never stop
You, you, you make a grown man cry
You, you make a dead man cum
You, you make a dead man cum
The fields of Eden
Are full of trash
And if we beg and we borrow and steal
We'll never get it back
People are hungry
They crowd around
And the city gets bigger as the country
comes begging to town
Stuck between a rock
And a hard place
Between a rock and a hard place
this talk of freedom
And human rights
Means bullying and private wars and
chucking all the dust in your eyes
And peasant people
Pooper than dirt
Who are caught in the crossfire with nothing
to lose but their shirts
Stuck between a rock
And a hard place
Between a rock and a hard place
You'd better stop, put on a kind face
Between a rock and a hard place
We're in the same boat
On the same sea
And we're sailing south
On the same breeze
Building dream churches
With silver spires
And our rogue children
Are playing loaded dice
Between a rock and a hard place
You'd better stop
Give me truth now
Don't want no slam
I'd be hung drawn and quartered for a sheep
just as a well as a lamb
Stuck between a rock
And a hard place
Between a rock and a hard place
You'd better put a stop
Put on a kind face
You move it to the left
yeah
you go for yourself.
You move it to the right
yeah
if it takes all night.
Now take it kinda slow with a whole lot of soul.
Don't move it too fast
just take it last.
You scratch just like a monkey
yeah
you do
real cool.
You slide into the limbo
yeah
how low can you go?
But come on
baby
I don't want you to scuffle now.
You just groove it right here to the harlem shuffle.
Yeah
yeah
yeah
do the harlem shuffle.
Yeah
yeah
yeah
do the harlem shuffle.
Hitch
hitch-hike baby
across the floor.
Whoa

whoa
I can't stand it no more.
Now come on
baby
now get into your slide.
We're gonna ride
ride
ride
little pony ride.
Yeah

Well, I've been haunted in my sleep
You've been starring in my dreams
Lord I miss you
I've been waiting in the hall
Been waiting on your call
When the phone rings
It's just some friends of mine that say,
"Hey, what's the matter man?
We're gonna come around at twelve
With some Puerto Rican girls that are just dyin' to meet you.
We're gonna bring a case of wine
Hey, let's go mess and fool around
You know, like we used to"
Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah
Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah
Aaah aaah aaah aaah
Oh everybody waits so long
Oh baby why you wait so long
Won't you come on! Come on!
I've been walking Central Park
Singing after dark
People think I'm crazy
I've been stumbling on my feet
Shuffling through the street
Asking people, "What's the matter with you boy?"
Sometimes I want to say to myself
Sometimes I say
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
I won't miss you child
I guess I'm lying to myself
It's just you and no one else
Lord I won't miss you child
You've been blotting out my mind
Fooling on my time
No, I won't miss you, baby, yeah
Lord, I miss you child
Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah

Lets drink to the hard working people
Lets drink to the lowly of birth
Raise your glass to the good and the evil
Lets drink to the salt of the earth
Say a prayer for the common foot soldier
Spare a thought for his back breaking work
Say a prayer for his wife and his children
Who burn the fires and who still till the earth
And when i search a faceless crowd
a swirling mass of gray and
black and white
they don't look real to me
in fact, they look so strange
Raise your glass to the hard working people
Lets drink to the uncounted heads
Lets think of the wavering millions
Who need leaders but get gamblers instead
Spare a thought for the stay-at-home voter
His empty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows
And a parade of the gray suited grafters
A choice of cancer or polio
And when i search a faceless crowd
A swirling mass of gray and
Black and white
They don't look real to me
In fact, they look so strange
Lets drink to the hard working people
Lets think of the lowly of birth
Spare a thought for the rag taggy people
Lets drink to the salt of the earth
Lets drink to the hard working people
Lets drink to the salt of the earth
Lets think of the two thousand million
Lets think of the humble of birth
I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm drivin' in my car, and the man come on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more about some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no. Oh, no, no, no. Hey, hey, hey
That's what I say
I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm watchin' my TV and a man comes on and tell me
How white my shirts can be
But, he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
The same cigarettes as me
I can't get no. Oh, no, no, no. Hey, hey, hey
That's what I say
I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm ridin' round the world, and I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that
And I'm tryin' to make some girl, who tells me
Baby, better come back maybe next week
'Cause you see I'm on a losing streak
I can't get no. Oh, no, no, no. Hey, hey, hey
That's what I say. I can't get no, I can't get no
I can't get no satisfaction, no satisfaction
No satisfaction, no satisfaction
Oh help me, please doctor I'm a damaged
There's a pain where there once was a heart
It's sleepin, its a beatin'
Can't ya please tear it out, and preserve it
Right there in that jar?
Oh help me please mama, I'm sickning
Its today that's the day of the plunge
Oh the gal I'm to marry
Is a bow-legged sow
I've been soakin up drink like a sponge
'Don't ya worry, get dressed', cried my mother
As she plied me with bourbon so sour
Pull your socks up, put your suit on
comb your long hair down,
for you will be wed in the hour
So help me, please doctor I'm damaged
There's a pain where there once was a heart
I'm, sleepin, its a beatin
Can't ya please tear it out, and preserve it
Right there in that jar?
Ohh help me, please doctor I'm damaged
There's a pain where there once was a heart
Its sleepin, its a beatin'
Can't ya please tear it out, and preserve
Right there in that jar?
I was tremblin, as I put on my jacket
It had creases as sharp as a knife
I put the ring in my pocket
But there was a note
And my heart jumped it jumped into my mouth
It read, 'Darlin', I'm sorry to hurt you.
But I have no courage to speak to your face.
But I'm down in Virginia with your cousin Lou
There be no wedding today'
So help me, please doctor I'm damaged
You can put back my heart in its hole
Oh mamma, I'm cryin
Tears of relief
And my pulse is now under control
Waiting for a girl who's got curlers in her hair
Waiting for a girl she has no money anywhere
We get buses everywhere
Waiting for a factory girl
Waiting for a girl and her knees are much too fat
Waiting for a girl who wears scarves instead of hats
Her zipper's broken down the back
Waiting for a factory girl
Waiting for a girl and she gets me into fights
Waiting for a girl we get drunk on Friday night
She's a sight for sore eyes
Waiting for a factory girl
Waiting for a girl and she's got stains all down her dress
Waiting for a girl and my feet are getting wet
She ain't come out yet
Parachute woman, land on me tonight
Parachute woman, land on me tonight
Well, I'll break big in New Orleans
and I'll overspill in Caroline
Parachute woman, join me for a ride
Parachute woman, join me for a ride
I'll make my blow in Dallas
and get hot again in half the time
Parachute woman, will you blow me out?
Parachute woman, will you blow me out?
My heavy throbbers itchin'
just to lay a solo rhytm down
Take me to the station and put me on a train
I've got no expectations to pass through here again
Once I was a rich man and now I am so poor
But never in my sweet, short life have I felt like this before
Your heart is like a diamond, you throw your pearls at swine
And as I watch you leaving me, you pack my peace of mind
Our love was like the water that splashes on a stone
Our love was like our music, it's here and then it's gone
So take me to the airport and put me on a plane
I've got no expectations to pass through here again
Spendin' too much time away
I can't stand another day
Maybe you think I've seen the world
But I'd rather see my girl
I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, bome, bome, bome-bome-bome,
Home, bome, bome, bome, back home
Yes, I am
All those letters ev'ry day
Maybe alright in their way
But I'd love to see your face
When I get home in their place
I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, bome, bome, bome-bome-bome,
Home, bome, bome, bome, back home
Yes, I am
Alright
I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, bome, bome, bome-bome-bome,
Home, bome, bome, bome, back home
Yes, I will
When you're three thousand miles away
I just never sleep the same
If I packed my things right now
I could be home in seven hours
I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, bome, bome, bome-bome-bome,
Home, bome, bome, bome, back home
Yes, I will
Yes, I will
See my baby, see my baby
I wanna see my girl
I just can't wait, I just can't wait
I just can't wait, I just can't wait
I just can't wait, I just can't wait
I just can't wait, I just can't wait
I just can't wait
I'll see my baby
She'll make me feel alright
Gotta see my baby
She'll make me feel so good
She'll make me feel allright
Yes she does
In the middle of the night
So good ti-ti-tight
Feel allright, come on baby
I'm gonna get home babe
I feel allright
I'm lookin' for my baby
I'm gonna go in the early morning
I'm gonna catch that plane
Now it won't be long, I say
Listen to me
Long time since I've seen my baby
Yes it is
It's such a long long time
Yes it is, I feel allright
I'm gonna see my baby, one more time
I get home, I gotta get home
I wanna see my darling
I wanna make sweet sweet love
In the middle of the night
Early in the morning
In the midnight hour
She'll make me feel so good
She'll make me feel allright
When she touch my hands
And that's all I gotta say
Cause I'm gonna pack my bags
I wanna see you baby
See your face
Your pretty little smile
Your pretty clothes
Hear you talk
Come on
I'm comin' home
I'll see my baby
I'm goin' home
I'm gettin' out
To see your face
Makin' love to you baby
Yes it makes me feel so good
Inside
I feel so good inside
Touch me one more time
Come on little girl
You may look sweet
But I know you ain't
I know you ain't
Well, I was happy here at home
I got everything I need.
Happy bein' on my own
Just living the life I lead.
Well, suddenly it dawned on me
That this was not my life.
So I just phoned the airline girl
And said, "Get me on flight number 505,
Get me on flight number 505."
Well, I confirmed my reservation.
Then I hopped a cab.
No idea of my destination
And feeling pretty bad.
With my suitcase in my hand.
In my head, my new life.
So then I told the airline girl
"Well, get me on flight number 505,
Get me on flight number 505."
Alright.
Well, I sat right there in my seat.
Well, feeling like a king.
With the whole world right at my feet.
"Of course I'll have a drink!"
Well, suddenly I saw
That we never ever would arrive.
He put the plane down in the sea.
The end of flight number 505.
The end of flight number 505.
Alright.
Whew, they put the plane down in the sea.
The end of flight number 505.
Why does the sky turn grey ev'ry night
Sun rise again in time
Why do you think of the first girl you had
Some things just stick in your mind
Why does the rain fall down on the earth
Why do the clouds keep cryin'
Why do you sleep curled up like a child
Some things just stick in your mind
Why when the children grow up and leave
Still remember their nursery rhymes
Why must there be so much hate in their lives
Goodbye Girl
(Bill Wyman)
Goodbye Girl
It's time to part
When you leave me, you take my heart
Better get a start
And get back, get back to the one you love
No one told me, I just knew
But nothing I can do
To make her stay true
Well it's time that you do
Get back, get back to the one you love
Well I've know her daddy since the first time we met
Seems like there's talk that I would regret
Goodbye girl, this might sound strange
But I told you when I met you, that you'd change
Better get that train and make it home
Get back, get back to the one you love
When the waters is rough,
the sailing is tough,
I'll get drowned in your love
You've got a cut throat crew,
I'm gonna sink under you,
I got the bell bottom blues,
it's gonna be the death of me
It's the graveyard watch,
running right on the rocks,
I've taken all of the knocks
You ain't giving me no quarter
I'd rather drink sea water,
I wish I'd never had brought you,
it's gonna be the death of me
Soul survivor, soul survivor
Soul survivor, soul survivor
Soul survivor, soul survivor
Soul survivor, soul survivor,
gonna be the death of me,
it's gonna be the death of me
When you're flying your flags
all my confidence sags,
you got me packing my bags
I'll stowaway at sea,
you make me mutiny,
where you are I won't be,
you're gonna be the death of me
[instrumental]
Watching girls go passing by
It ain't the latest thing
I'm just standing in a doorway
I'm just trying to make some sense
Out of these girls go passing by
The tales they tell of men
I'm not waiting on a lady
I'm just waiting on a friend
A smile relieves a heart that grieves
Remember what I said
I'm not waiting on a lady
I'm just waiting on a friend
I'm just waiting on a friend
Don't need a whore
I don't need no booze
Don't need a virgin priest
But I need someone I can cry to
I need someone to protect
Making love and breaking hearts
It is a game for youth
But I'm not waiting on a lady
I'm just waiting on a friend
You gotta move
You gotta move
You gotta move, child
You gotta move
Oh, when the Lord gets ready
You gotta move
You may be high
You may be low
You may be rich, child
You may be poor
But when the Lord gets ready
You gotta move
You see that woman,
who walks the street
You see that police,
upon his beat
But then the Lord gets ready
You gotta move
You gotta move
Hey, babe, what's in your eyes?
I saw them flashing like airplane lights
You fill my cup, babe, that's for sure
I must come back for a little more
You got my heart, you got my soul
You got the silver, you got the gold
You got the diamonds from the mines
Well, that's allright, it'll buy some time
Tell me, honey, what will I do?
When I'm hungry and thirsty too.
Feeling foolish and that's for sure
Just waiting here at your kitchen door
Hey babe, what's in your eyes?
Is that the diamonds from the mines?
What's that laughing in your smile?
I don't care, no, I don't care
Hey babe, you got my soul
You got the silver, you got the gold
A flash of love has made me blind
I don't care, no, that's no big surprise
Well, I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she would go meet her connection
At her feet was her footloose man
No, you can't always get what you want
No, you can't always get what you want
No, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometime, you just might find
You get what you need
And I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair shares of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
And if we don't, we don't blow a 50-amp fuse", yeah
And no, you can't always get what you want
No, you can't always get what you want
Well, no, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You get what you need, baby
And I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescriptions filled
I was standin' in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided to have a soda
"Whatcha favorite flavor?", "Cherry red"
And I sung my song to my friend Jimmy
And he said one word back to me, that was "Dead"
I said
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
You get what you need
Oh, you can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
And I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
And she was practised that the art of deception
I could tell by her blood-stained hands
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You ask me to give up the hand of the girl I love
You tell me, I'm not the man she's worthy of
But who are you to tell her who to love?
That's up to her, yes, and the Lord above
You better move on
Well I know you can buy her fancy clothes
But I believe she's happy with me without those things
Still you beg me to set her free
But my friend, that will never be
You better move on
Now I don't blame you for loving her
But can't you understand, man, she's my girl
And I, never never ever gonna let her go
‘Cuz I, yeah, I love her so
I think you better go now , I'm getting mighty mad
You ask me to give up the only love I've ever had
Maybe I would, oh, but I love her so
I'm never gonna let her go
You don't have to mean it
You just got to say it anyway
I just need to hear those words for me
You don't have to say too much
Babe I wouldn't even touch you anyway
I just want to hear you to say to me
Sweet lies
Baby baby dripping from your lips
Sweet sighs
Say to me come on and play

Whisper whisper whisper in my ear

Hmm just say those little words
Sit on my shoulder like a little bird
Baby baby sing those words for me
Sweet lies
Baby baby dripping from yuor lips
Sweet sighs
Ooh you make me cry
Oh baby you know it
You know what I want to hear
Dripping from your lips

Dripping from you lips
You don't have to say too much
Whisper whisper baby baby

(I don't believe it)
You don't have to mean it
Babe just say it anyway
I just need to hear those words from your sweet lips
You don't have to mean it

(I don't believe you)
You don't have to shout across the room
You can make it if you try
You can make it if you try
You can make it if you try
Yeh, yeh you can make it if you try
Sometime you had to fall
Don't you know sometime you want to cry
Don't it make you feel so bad sometime
You wanna lay down and die
Yeh, yeh, you can make it if you try, ummmmmmm
If you're baby treats you wrong
Don't run around being blue
Remember my friend
Everybdody can't win
'Cuz you know sometime, sometime
You got to lose
You can make it if you try
They always told me
I could make it if I tried
I'm going to make it if i try
Yeh, yeh, i'm gonna make it if I try
The spark (stars) in your eyes sets
my soul on fire
Your voice is like an angels above
The touch of your hand drives me insane
But baby, I want to be loved
I'm crazy 'bout ev'ry little thing you do
I cherish the way you hug (me)
Your kiss is so sweet, honey, it can't be beat
But baby, I want to be loved
Ev'ry time I ask you for a date
You don't come at all, or you're mighty late
I ask you to dance, (take) a little spin
You say "Wait a minute, daddy,
here comes my friend"
I love the way you walk when you pass me by
Even when you try to snub (me)
You kill (kiss) me, baby when
you give me the eye
Who wants yesterdays papers
who wants yesterdays girl
who wants yesterdays papers
nobody in the world
After this time I finally learned
after the pain and hurt
after all this what have i achieved
I've realized it's time to leave
Cause
who wants yesterdays papers
who wants yesterdays girl
who wants yesterdays papers
nobody in the world
Living a life of constant change
every day means the turn of a page
yesterdays papers are such bad news
same thing applies to me and you
Who wants yesterdays papers
who wants yesterdays girl
who wants yesterdays papers
nobody in the world
Seems very hard to have just one girl
when there's a million in the world
all of these people just can't wait
to fall right into their big mistake
Who wants yesterdays papers
who wants yesterdays girl
who wants yesterdays papers
nobody in the world
Will you, will you, will you be my lover tonight?
Will you, will you, will you hold me tight?
I've been waiting such a long long time
To here you say that you'll be mine
Will you, will you, will you be my lover tonight?
Tell me, tell me, tell me, you want me too
Tell me, tell me, tell me, I need you
When I saw you over there
What could I do but stand and stare
Will you, will you, will you be my lover tonight?
I don't pretend to know the reason why
I love you so don't ever make me cry, no no no no no
Give me, give me, give me your whole heart
Promise, promise, promise when we're apart
You'll be faithful, you'll be true
Just remember, I love you
Will you, will you, will you be my lover tonight
I'll be faithful, I'll be true
Just remember, I love you
And it sure been a cold, cold winter
and the wind ain't been blowin' from the south.
It's sure been a cold, cold winter
and a lotta love is all burned out.
It sure been a hard, hard winter,
my feet been draggin' 'cross the ground.
And I hope it's gonna be a long, hot summer,
and a lotta love will be burnin' bright.
And I wish I been out in California
when the lights on all the Christmas trees went out.
But I been burnin' my bell, book and candle,
and the restoration plays have all gone 'round.
It sure been a cold, cold winter,
my feet been draggin' 'cross the ground.
And the fields has all been brown and fallow,
and the springtime take a long way around.
Yeah, and I wish I been out in Stone Canyon
when the lights on all the Christmas trees went out.
But I been burnin' my bell, book and candle,
and the restoration plays have all gone 'round.
Sometimes I think about you, baby,
Sometimes I cry about you.
Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you,
Sometimes I wanna keep you warm.
Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you,
Sometimes I wanna but I can't afford you.
I wanna be your lover, baby,
I wanna be your man
I wanna be your lover, baby
I wanna be your man
Tell me that you love me, baby
Tell me you understand

Hey girls, you better listen to me
I'm getting starved for your company
All day Monday, and all day Tuesday
I played football, there's nothing on the telly
Now ever since I was just 13 years old
Well, I always felt shy but I acted so bold
I never had the money and I never had the class
But I always seemed to get myself a Saturday night piece of ass!
Where the boys go, Saturday night
Where the boys all go, hold me tight
Where the boys all go, Saturday night
Where the boys all go
Saturday morning you can see me at the pub

Get in everybody, where the boys all go!
Hey! Never keep a secret from meeeee--eeeeeeee
Hey! Never keep a secret from yuuuuuuuuuwwwwwww
Hey! Never keep a secret from meeeeee-eeeeeee
Where the boys go, Saturday night
Where the boys go, hold me tight
Where the boys go, stand around and grope
Where the boys go, showing off their clothes
Where the boys go, down the disco!
Hey girls, what you doin' tonight?
Now do you want to dance, or do you want to bite?
Look here, darlin, I know the score
Paint your face, dye your hair, I'll see you round the back!
Where the boys go, Saturday night
Where the boys go, hold me tight
Where the boys go, Saturday night
Where the boys go, for a giggle and a lawff
Where the boys go, and a little piece of ass
Where the boys go, for a little piece of this
Where the boys go, for a little piece of that
Where the boys go, for a little piece of skirt
Yeah, mama and papa told me

So I saved my money
And I took a plane
Wherever I go they treat me the same

that you will love "we" too
We love "they". We love "they", and

Love can't get our minds off

'Cause we love you
We love you. Of course, we do
I love you. I love you
And I hope that you won't prove wrong
We love you. We do. We love you. We
I can hear the wind a blowin' in my mind
Just the way it used to sound, through the Georgia pines
You were there to answer when I called, yeah
You and me we had it all
Remember how I used to touch your hands
While reachin' for the feeling that was always there
You're the best thing in my life I can recall, oh
You and me we had it all
I know that we can never lives these times again
So I'll let these dreams take me back to where we've been
Then I stay there with you just as long as I can
Oh, it was so good, yeah, it was so good
Oh, it was so good, when I was your man
And I never stop believin' your smile
Even though it didn't stay, it was all worthwhile
Yes, you're the best thing in my life I can recall, oh
You and me we had it all
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Smiling faces I can see, but not for me
I sit and watch as tears go by
My riches can't buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All I ever hear is the sound of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch as tears go by
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Doin' things I used to do, they think they are new
I sit and watch as tears go by
Mm mm mm...
Oh I get a girl with a record machine
When it comes to rockin she's the queen
We go to dance on saturday night
I'm all alone and I hold her tight
But she live on the twentieth floor in town
The elevator's broken down
So I walk one, two flight, three flight four
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
Fifteenth floor I'm ready to drag
Get to the top, I'm too tired to rock
Well she called me up on the telephone
Said "come on over, baby, I'm all alone"
I said "baby, you're mighty sweet
But I'm in bed with the achin' feet"
This went on for a couple of days
But I could not stay away
So I walk one, two flight, three flight four
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
Fifteenth floor I'm ready to drag
Get to the top, I'm too tired to rock
Yeah, we sent to Chicago for repairs
Till it's a-fixed I'm using the stairs
I love you, baby, wanna see your face
I love you baby, too much to wait
All this climbing is gettin me down
They'll find my cold feet over the rail
So I walk one, two flight, three flight four
five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
Fifteenth floor I'm ready to drag
Grabbed hold of your coat tail but it come off in my hand,
I reached for your lapel but it weren't sewn on so grand
Begged, promised anything if only you would stay,
well, I lost a lot of love over you.
Fell down to my knees and I hung onto your pants,
but you just kept on runnin' while they ripped off in my hands
Diamond rings, vaseline, you give me disease,
well, I lost a lot of lover over you
I boogied in the ballroom, I boogied in the dark
Tie you hands, tie you feet, throw you to the sharks
Make you sweat, make you scream, make you wish you'd never been,
I lost a lot of love over you
When the sun beats down
And burns the tar up on the roof
And your shoes get so hot
You wish your tired feet were fireproof
Under the boardwalk
Down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby
Is where I'll be
(Under the boardwalk) Out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be having some fun
(Under the boardwalk) People walking above
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be falling love
(Under the boardwalk, boardwalk)
From the sand you'll hear
The happy sound of a carousel
You can almost taste the hot dogs
And french fries they sell
Under the boardwalk
Down by the sea, yeah
On a blanket with my baby
Is where I'll be
(Under the boardwalk) Out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be having some fun
(Under the boardwalk) People walking above
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be falling love
(Under the boardwalk, boardwalk)
Oh, under the boardwalk
Down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby
Is where I'll be
(Under the boardwalk) Out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be having some fun
(Under the boardwalk) People walking above
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be falling in love
Hey let him follow you down,
way underground wind and he's bound.
Bound to follow you down,
just a dead beat right off the street.
Bound to follow you down.
Well the ballrooms and smelly bordellos
and dressing rooms filled with parasites.
On stage the band has got problems,
they're a bag of nerves on first nights.
He ain't tied down to no home town,
yeah, and he thought he was wreckless.
You think he's bad, he thinks you're mad,
yeah, and the guitar player gets restless.
And his coat is torn and frayed,
it's seen much better days.
Just as long as the guitar plays
let it steal your heart away,
let it steal your heart away.
Joe's got a cough, sounds kind a rough,
yeah, and the codeine to fix it.
Doctor prescribes, drug store supplies,
who's gonna help him to kick it?
Well his coat is torn and frayed,
it's seen much better days.
Just as long as the guitar plays
let it steal your heart away,
let it steal your heart away
(Hey, Can't you have this in mono?)
I musta been foolish, I musta been blind
I musta been crazy, And out of my mind
For so long
Minutes turn to hours, And hours turn into
days
The storm started howlin', I'm out of my
brain
I'm out of my brain
For so long
The fall turned into winter, The winter
turned into rain
The storm started howlin', I'm out of my
brain
I'm out of my brain, I'm out of my mind
For so long
So long
So long
So long
So long
Out of my mind for so long
Felt a mighty rumble, Comin' from the
ground
The house it started shakin', And tumblin'
down
Tumblin' down
For so long
For so long
Musta been crazy, I musta been blind
Musta been foolish, And out of my mind
Out of my mind
For so long
So long
So long
So long
So long
Mmmh mmmh

Yes, star crossed in pleasure the stream flows on by.
Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch it fly.
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me.
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me.
Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face.
Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste.
Time waits for no one, no favours has he.
Time waits for no one, and he won't wait for me.
Men, they build towers to their passing yes, to their fame everlasting.
Here he comes chopping and reaping, hear him laugh at their cheating.
And time waits for no man, and it won't wait for me.
Yes, time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me.
Drink in your summer, gather your corn.
The dreams of the night time will vanish by dawn.
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me.
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me.
No no no, not for me...
You're deaf to it, blind to it. It's like a thunder clap.
Feel the prickles running up and down your back.
Why so divine?
The pain of love
You have to work at it, stay with it, pay for it
bust your ass
lie for it cheat for it, forget about your past
why so divine?
The pain of love
You dream of it passionate
you even get a rise from it
feel the hot cum
dripping on your thigh from it
why so divine?
The pain of love
Sometimes you crave for it
cry for it, women will die for it
looking back, cut the crap
was it really worth the rap
it's hard to survive the pain of love
ain't that right
Yeah I need a time out
time to make my mind up
substitute a line out
I'll be back next season with a bang
No release from the jail
no parole no bail
hard labour, fifty lashes, hard labour , money crashes
it's hard to survive the pain of love
well alright...
The old maid is roughing up
applying the final touches
though she's late for the dance
I'll tell you tonight she's really gonna have a ball
she's gonna really tie me up
she's gonna really tie me up
Don't hurt me...
No use in cryin' now, you'll get by somehow
You thought that you had me, just where I ought to be
You thought I was so much in love with you, yeah
Think you'd better find someone who's more your mind
Someone who be your clown
Someone who'll push you around
You thought I was so much in love with you, yeah
Do what you want to do, but now you know I've changed my mind
Did you believe I was a fool, that I never saw thru the wool you pull'd over my eyes
You can't send me away
Then we've never been the same, since you play'd your game
You 'll ask me back to stay
Well I said from the first
I am the worst kind of guy
For you to be around
Tear me apart
Including this old heart
That is true
And never ever let you down
You shouldn't stick with me
You trust me too much, you see
Take all the pain
It's yours anyway
Yeah kid...
Oh, put the blame on me
You ought to pass, you see
Somewhere outside
I threw love aside
Now it's a tragedy
I said from the first
I am the worst kind of guy
All the way, all the way
I miss your touch baby, yeah
Like a thief in the night
It can't be right...
(Like a thief)
I know where your place is
And it's not with him
I'm the one who is out here baby
Out here, just looking in
He ain't gonna like it at all
No no, that's no good
I know the feeling
(Just you wait there in the dark)
In the dark, baby
Yeah, how his dog can bark
Like a thief in the night
Like a thief in the night
Like a thief in the night
I'm gonna steal what's mine
Oh I'm gonna break the laws
But I'll get through you door
But you wait and see
Yeah, I'm gonna get ya, get you free
(Like a thief)
I found out where he keeps you
I've even been inside
You check under your pillow baby
You'll get the message
If I see you at your window, well then I'll know
No one can separate us
Like a thief in the night
Like a thief in the night
Like a thief in the night
Yeah, you can set me up
You can turn me in
Or burn me baby
Well you're in my skin
The only reason I'm breaking in
I'm coming baby, I'm breaking in
Like a thief in the night
Come on, yeah, oh yeah
Like a thief in the night
Oh baby you know what I'm talking, come on
You can call the police on me baby
Set me up and then bust me
Come on I dare you, come on, come on
I'll take the drop for you
Soften the blow baby, baby, baby
You know what I mean
Nothing I can do about it
It's the power of it
Come on, like a thief
Like a thief in the night
Like a thief in the night
Well I'm waiting at the bus stop in downtown L.A.
Well I'm waiting at the bus stop in downtown L.A.
But I'd much rather be on a boardwalk on Broadway
Well I'm sitting here thinkin' just how sharp I am
Well I'm sitting here thinkin' just how sharp I am
I'm an under assistant west coast promo man
Well I promo groups when they come into town
Well I promo groups when they come into town
Well they laugh at my toupee, they're sure to put me down
Well I'm sitting here thinking just how sharp I am
Yeah I'm sitting here thinking just how sharp I am
I'm a necessary talent behind every rock and roll band
Yeah, I'm sharp
I'm really, really sharp
I sure do earn my pay
Sitting on the beach every day, yeah
I'm real real sharp, yes I am
I got a Corvette and a seersucker suit
Yes I have
Here comes the bus, uh oh
I though I had a dime
Where's my dime
I know I have a dime somewhere
Well, they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Waiting for me when I die
But between the day you're born and when you die
You know, they never seem to hear even your cry
Chorus:
So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now what is mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall
One and all
The harder they come
The harder they fall
One and all
And the oppressors are trying to track me down
They're trying to drive me underground
And they think that they have got the battle won
I say, forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Last night I needed you so bad
I was alone and feeling sad
But now that I recall, you left me after all
The only girl I've ever had
I never ever made you cry
No no, I didn't even try
You promised you'd be true, you said you'd love me too
My only girl told me a lie
Maybe there'll come a day, when I can smile and say
She used to be my girl
But now there's nothing left to say
She only wanted me for play
I learned my lesson fast, but now I know at last
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I'm lazy as a lion
My body's just for you
Crazy for you
I'm sneaky as a snake
I'm dirty as a dog
I'm rutting like a goat
I'm horny as a hog
Terrifying love
I get these strange strange strange desires
Strange strange strange desires
You're graceful as a bird
My heart is on the wing
You're gentle as a dove
If a humming bird could sing
Crazy for you
You're gunning like a deer
I'm wily as a fox
You're faster than a mare
I'm stronger than an ox
Terrifying love
I get these strange strange strange desires
Strange strange strange desires
Strange strange strange desires
I'm faithful as a swan
I'm darker than a bat
I'm friendly as a bear
And tougher than a rat
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I'm restless as a cat
All caged up in a zoo
Terrifying love
I get these strange strange strange desires
Strange strange strange desires
Ev'rywhere you want I always go
I always give in because, baby, you know
You just say so 'cause you give me that
feeling inside that I know must be right
It's the singer not the song
It's not the way you give in willingly
Others do it without thrilling me
Giving me that same old feeling inside that I
know I must be right
It's the singer not the song
The same old places and the same old songs
We've been going there for much too long
There's something wrong and it gives me that feeling
inside that I know I must be right
It's the singer not the song
It's the singer not the song
We, on our present life,
Knew that the stars were right.
That if you are the first to go,
You'll leave a sign to let me know,
Tell me so.
Please, carry the Lantern lights.
You crossed the sea of night,
Free from the spell of fright
Your cloak it is a spirit shroud.
You'll wake me in my sleeping hours,
Like a cloud.
So, please, carry the Lantern high.
Me, in my sorry plight,
You waiting ev'ry night.
My face it turns a deathly pale,
You're talking to me, through your veil,
I hear you wail.
So, please carry the Lantern light.
The servants sleep,
The door's are barred.
You hear the stopping of my heart-we never part.
I want you back again
I want your love again
I know you find it hard to reason with me
But this time it's different, darling you'll see
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
You said we're through before
You walked out on me before
I tried to tell you, but you didn't want to know
This time you're different and determined to go
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
I wait as the days go by
I long for the nights to go by
I hear the knock on my door that never comes
I hear the telephone that hasn't rung
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
You gotta tell me you're coming back to me
Sweethearts together
We've only just begun
Sweethearts together
We'll take life as it comes
Sweathearts forever
Two hearts together as one
Everybody needs someone
To tell their troubles to
To share the pain and laughter
In a world beset with fools
To help you with your ups and downs
Someone to heal your wounds
So we're
Sweethearts together
When two hearts beat as one
Sweethearts together
We've only just begun
Sweethearts forever
Two hearts together as one
As one
Everyone so cynical
And says that love won't last
Think about your future
Stop living in the past
Time's not standing still
So stop looking through those tinted glasses
Sweathearts together
We've only just begun
Sweathearts together
So glad I've found someone
Sweethearts forever
Two hearts together as one
As one
But love is never easy
It's never silky smooth
There's always something tempting
In the wilderness of youth
But I will stay right by your side
The truth will out, you'll realize
We're
Sweathearts together we've only just begun
Sweathearts together
So glad I found someone
Sweethearts forever
They're really rockin Boston
In Pittsburgh, P. A.
Deep in the heart of Texas
And 'round the Frisco Bay
All over St. Louis
Way down in New Orleans
All the Cats wanna dance with
Sweet Little Sixteen
Sweet Little Sixteen
She's just got to have
About half a million
Framed autographs
Her wallet's filled with pictures
She gets 'em one by one
She gets so excited
Won't ya look at her run
Oh Mommy Mommy

It's such a sight to see
Somebody steal the show
Oh Daddy Daddy

Whisper to Mommy

In Philadelphia P.A.
Deep in the heart of Texas
And 'round the Frisco Bay
All over St. Louis
Way Down in New Orleans
All the Cats wanna dance with
Sweet Little Sixteen
Sweet Little Sixteen
She's got the grown up blues
Tight dress and lipstick
She's sportin' high heal shoes
Oh, but tomorrow morning
She'll have to chang her trend
And be sweet sixteen
And back in class again
Cause they'll be rockin on bandstand
In Philadelphia P.A.
Deep in the heart of Texas
And 'round the Frisco Bay
All over St. Louis
Way Down in New Orleans
All the Cats wanna dance with
Wading through the waste stormy winter
And there's not a friend to help you through
Trying to stop the waves behind your eyeballs
Drop your reds drop your greens and blues
Thank you for your wine, California
Thank you for your sweet and bitter fruits
Yes, I've got the desert in my toenail
And hid the speed inside my shoe

Did you ever wake up to find
A day that broke up your mind
Destroying your notion of circular time
It's just that demon life has got you in its sway
It's just that demon life has got you in its sway
Ain't flinging tears out on the dusty ground
For all my friends out on the burial ground
Expect the feeling getting so brought down
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
There must be ways to find out
Love is the way they say is really strutting out
Hey, hey, hey now
One day I woke up to find
Right in the bed next to mine
Someone that broke me up with a corner of her smile
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
Just a few days and you'll be back in your school
I'll be sitting around by the swimming pool
You'll be studying history and you'll be down the gym
And I'll be down the pub, probably playing pool and drinking
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through
Just a few days and you'll be back in your class
Sucking up the teacher and trying to get an 'a' pass
Trying to hide your make-up and you're trying to flash your legs
Yeh, no sympathy from your spotty friends
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through
I can't help myself, help it if I'm older than you
I can't help myself, help it if I'm older than you
Over, over, summer romance
I need money so much, I need money so bad
And I can't be your mum, don't want to be your dad
I'm a serious man, I got serious lusts
Gonna have to do away with this greasy kid stuff
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through
I can't help myself, I can't help it if I'm older than you
It's over, over, summer romance
It's just a summer romance, a summer romance, and it's through
It's over, over, summer romance
Been keeping cool
Been lying low
Been dancing smooth
And dancing slow
Keeping myself to myself
My nose is clean
But I'm a man
Not a machine
All get together and feel alright
All get together and rock all night
All get together and feel alright
Okay
Get ready
For sure
Okay
Let's go
Suck on the jugular
Love to change my shape
And change my name
Want to get out of myself for a while
Don't feel no shame
I love men to be men
And women women
On special occasions
Diving and dipping
All get together and feel alright
All get together and fuck all night
Alright
Give me
For sure
Okay
Let's go
Suck on the jugular
Okay
Let's go
Alright
Oh, no
Alright
Let's live lasciviously
Down in the muck
And when tonight's over
You going to watch me blow
And self-destruct
All get together and feel alright
All get together and feel all night
All get together and feel alright
Get together
All get together and rock
All get together and rock
I hear the click-clack of your feet on the stairs
I know you're no scare-eyed honey.
There'll be a feast if you just come upstairs
But it's no hanging matter

Rock'N'Roll Band 'cause in sleepy London Town
There's just no place for Street Fighting Man!
Hey! Think the time is right for a Palace Revolution
But where I live the game to play is Compromise Solution!

Hey! Said my name is called Disturbance

If I ever get back to Fun City, girl,

Honey, honey, call me on the telephone,

with your can of tasty foam
All those beat up friends of mine

You'd better grease up
I'm coming back
You're gonna catch fire
Pyromaniac
You'd better shape up
You'd better get set
Gonna burn up
In the smoke of a jet
Sparks will fly
When I finally get myself back on you, baby
Sparks will fly
When I finally get myself back to you, baby
You're going to find out
Going to scream and shout
We're going to pierce through this drought
Sparks will fly, sparks will fly
You better stand back
The flames are high
Better get help
Can't stop the fire
Bell's going to ring
Hear the alarms
Better tell the fire chief
To quit playing cards
Sparks will fly
When I finally get myself back on you, baby
Sparks will fly
When I finally get myself back on you, baby
Going to step on the gas
Going to get there real fast
Going to fuck your sweet ass
Sparks will fly
Sharks will cry
Sparks will fly
I had a good sniff around
Along old hunting grounds
But I hhave never found
A woman so hot
Sparks will fly
When I finally get myself back on you, baby
Sparks will fly
When I finally get myself back on you, baby
My fingrs are crossed
The time that we lost
I'm in total chaos
Sparks will fly, sparks will fly

Ain't no use in crying
Stay away from me
Standing in the kitchen
Looking way out cross the fields
You see a face in the window
It not real, it not real
Ain't no use in crying
Stay away from me
Ain't no use
Standing at the station
Gazing down the track
There ain't no train coming baby
I ain't never, never coming back
Standing in the balcony
Looking way towards cross the sea
If you see your ship come a sailing
It not me, it not me
It's not me
Stay away from me
Hey you
Ain't no use, ain't no use
Stay away from me
Ain't no use in crying
Stay away from me
I met her in a movie house, she was playin' the arcades
And posing with her hang hair down, lookin' a little bit
unmade
She spoke in broken English, I replied in broken French
'Come and share my popcorn, it's not a federal offense
She's so young, God help me, she's so young
Her skin was kind of pudgy, got spots all on her face
From wearin' too much makeup, and she wasn't walkin'
straight
She drove her daddy's car, she got a genuine teenage drag
She always find a popper, to be hidden in her stash
She's so young, God help me, she's so young
So young, so young
So young, so young
She ain't never gonna steal my heart away
I might not get it back!
She's so young
Well I took her down to Barney's, bought her a brand new
set of boots
She tried 'em in my arms, and's lookin' terminally cute
I tried to take it easy, put my dick back on a leash
If I see big trouble comin', I'm gonna beat a quick retreat
She's so young, God help me, she's so young
So young, so young
So young, so young
She ain't never gonna steal my heart away
I might not get it back
She's so young, yeah
So young, so young
So young, so young
She ain't never gonna steal my heart away
I might not get it back
Yeah, she's so young
So young, so young
So young
I ain't never gonna give my heart away
I might not get it back
She's so young, so young
So young
I ain't never gonna give my heart away
Guess it's just another dream
That's slipping away
Each time that I fall asleep
It seems Im just drifting away
Just as you have touched my heart
Babe I wake up and were apart, yeah
And it's slipping away
Here comes just another day
That's drifting away
Every time I draw a breath
Its dying away
First the sun and then the moon
One of them will be around soon
Slipping away
Slipping away
Drifting away
Slipping away
Just as you have touched my heart
I wake up babe and were apart
It seems were slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
All I want is ecstacy
But I aint getting much
Just getting off on misery
It seems Ive lost my touch
Well it's just another song
But it's slipping away
Well we didn't sing it long
Cos it's fading away
First the sun and then the moon
One of them will be round soon
Slipping away
Slipping away
Walkin'thru' the sleepy city
In the dark it looks so pretty
Till I got to the one cafe
That stays open night and day
Just a lookin' at the sleepy city
In the night it looks so pretty
No one sees the city lights
they just care about the warmth inside
No one listens to what people say
I just sit and hear the radio play
Just then this girl walked in my way
And she was as pretty as my sleepy city
Will you walk through the sleepy city
In the night it looks so pretty
Tired of walkin on my own
It looks better when you're not alone
Will you walk through the sleepy city
In the night it looks so pretty
I'm tired of walkin on my own
It looks better when you're not alone
Mm mm mm mm mm mm
La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
Will you walk through the sleepy city
In the night, well it looks so pretty
I'm tired of walkin on my own
It looks better when you're not alone
C'mon walk through that sleepy city
I said in the night it looks so pretty
I'm tired of walkin that park on my own
It looks better when you're not alone
Do it, do it, do it, do it
Don't wanna be your slave
Twenty four hours a day
Hey, why don't you go down to the supermarket
Get something to eat, steal something of the shelves
Pass by the liquor store
Be back about quarter to twelve
Don't want to be your slave
Baby go, baby go, baby go
I don't know why i love you babe
I don't know why i love you
I don't know why i love you, baby
But I love you darlin yes I do
You always treat me like a fool
You kick me when i'm down that's you're rule
I don't know why i love you baby
But i love you
When are you gonna stop your cheatin ways
With another guy you laugh in my face
Just how long must i be disgraced
Cause I love you baby
I don't know I don't know why babe
I don't know I don't know why baby now
I don't know why I love you baby
Since I was young I've been very hard to please
And I don't know wrong from right
But there is one thing I could never understand
Some of the sick things that a girl does to a man, so
I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm sittin on a fence
All of my friends at school grew up and settled down
And they mortgaged up their lives
One things not said too much, but I think it's true
They just get married cause there's nothing else to do, so
I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say i got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm sittin on a fence
I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm sittin on a fence
The day can come when you get old and sick and tired of life
You just never realize
Maybe the choice you made wasn't really right
But you go out and you don't come back at night, so
I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm sittin on a fence
Here I lie in my hospital bed
Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again?
Oh, I don't think I can wait that long
Oh you see that I'm not that strong
The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here?
What am I doing in this place?
and why does the doctor have no face?
Oh, I can't crawl across the floor
Ah, Can't you see, Sister Morphine, I'm trying to score.
Well it just goes to show,
things are not what they seem.
Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams.
Oh can't you see I'm fading fast?
And that this shot will be my last.
Sweet Cousin Cocaine, lay your cool cool hands on my head
Ah come on, Sister Morphine, you better make up my bed
'Cause you know and I know in the morning I'll be dead
You can sit around and you can watch all the
clean white sheets stained red.
Why don't we sing this song all together
Open our heads let the pictures come
And if we close all our eyes together
Then we will see where we all come from
Pictures of us through the steamy haze
Picture of us painted in our place
Why don't we sing this song all together
Open our heads let the pictures come
And if we close all our eyes together
Then we will see where we all come from
Why don't we sing this song all together
Open our heads let the pictures come
And if we close all our eyes together
Then we will see where we all come from
Pictures of us beating on our drum
Never stopping til the rain has come
Why don't we sing this song all together
Open our heads let the pictures come
And if we close all our eyes together

I'm the bleeding volcano
I'm so hot for her, I'm so hot for her
I'm so hot for her and she's so cold
Yeah, I tried re-wiring her, tried re-firing her
I think her engine is permanently stalled
She's so cold she's so cold
She's so cold cold cold
Like a tombstone
She's so cold, she's so cold
she's so cold cold cold like an ice cream cone
She's so cold she's so cold
I when I touch her my hand just froze
Yeah, I'm so hot for hot for her, I'm so hot for her
I'm so hot for her and even so,
Put your hand on the heat, put your hand on the heat
Aw C'mon baby, let's go
She's so cold, she's so cold, cold, she's so c-c-c-old
But she's beautiful, though
Yeah, she's so cold
She's so cold, she's so cold
She was born in an arctic zone
She's so cold she's so cold, cold, cold
I dare not touch her my hand just froze
She's so cold, she's so goddamn cold she's so
Cold cold cold she's so cold
Who would believe you were a beauty indeed
When the days get shorter and the nights get long
Lie awake when the rain comes
Nobody will know, when you're old
When you're old, nobody will know
that you was a beauty, a sweet sweet beauty
A sweet sweet beauty, but stone stone cold
You're so cold, you're so cold, cold, cold
You're so cold, you're so cold
I'm so hot for you, I'm so hot for you
I'm so hot for you and you're so cold
I'm the burning bush, I'm the burning fire
I'm the bleeding volcano
Saw you stretched out in room ten o nine
With a smile on your face and the tears right in your eye
Could not seem to get a line on you, my sweet honey love
And Berber jewelry jangling down the street
Making bloodshot eyes at every woman that you meet
Could not seem to get a high on you, my sweet honey love, yeah
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Make every song you sing your favorite tune
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Warm like the evening sun
And you're drunk in the alley with your clothes all torn
And your late night friends leave you in the cold gray dawn
Just seemed too many flies on you, I just can't brush them off
And the angels beating all their wings in time
With a smile on their face and a gleam right in their eyes
Could not seem to get a high on you
Come on up now, come on up now, come on up
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Make every song you sing your favorite tune
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Warm like the evening sun, yeah yeah
Come on up now, come on up now, , come on up now, come on up
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Make every song you sing your favorite tune
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Warm like the evening sun, yeah
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Make every song you sing your favorite tune
May the good Lord shine a light on you
Warm like the evening sun, oh yeah baby
New York was cold and damp
tv is just a blank
looks like another dead end sunday
what about an early night
monday never feels so bright
ooh the sheets feel cold and lonely
who wants to brave the pouring rain
for a glass of french champagne
grab a cab, grab a cab, and baby, come right by
But she was hot - as she kissed my mouth
she was hot - as I wiped her brow
she was hot - she pinned me to the ground
she was quick - she knew her way around
she was hot - and she tore my clothes
she was hot - she had no place to go
she was hot - on a cold and rainy night
Detroit was smoky grey
nothing like the good old days
I got a fever that i'm fighting
I don't need your company
leave me in my misery
I can take the rebound just like lightning
And she was hot - in a 50's dress
she was hot - her lips were flashing red
I was lost - in her burning flesh
I was hot - I was dripping sweat
she was hot- in the Detroit snow
she was hot - she had no place to go
she was hot - on a cold and rainy night
And she was hot - and I had the blues
she was hot - honey where were you
if you were in my shoes
you would be excused
she was hot- you can never wait
she was hot - never hesitate
she was hot - on a cold and rainy night
I think I'm going off the rails
riding down the pleasure trails
always take your passion where you find it
honey when you were young and fresh
and you need the touch of flesh
go take the treasure where you find it
But she was hot - in the melted snow
she was hot - in the molten glow
she was hot - she got it in the blood
she was hot - like the dam that's burst
she was strong - she was strong and true
she was black - and her eyes were blue
she was lost - and she took a chance
at just a brief romance
down the avenue
into the lost bayou
into the tall bamboo
into the human zoo
I wish you all the best
I hope we meet again
in a cold Chicago night
She was hot, hot, hot...
Why do my thoughts loom so large on me?
They seem to stay, for day after day
And won't disappear, I've tried every way
But she smiled sweetly
She smiled sweetly
She smiled sweetly
And says don't worry
Oh, no no no
Where does she hide it inside of her?
That keeps her peace most every day
And won't disappear, my hair's turning grey
But she smiled sweetly
She smiled sweetly
She smiled sweetly
And says don't worry
Oh, no no no
'There's nothing in why or when
There's no use trying, you're here
Begging again, and ov'r again'
That's what she said so softly
I understood for once in my life
And feeling good most all of the time
But she smiled sweetly
She smiled sweetly
She smiled sweetly
And said don't worry
Oh, no no no
Oh, no no no
Oh, no no no
Shang a doo lang, shang a lang doo lang
Shang a doo lang, shang a lang doo lang

Well you tell me, that he really loves me
I know he told me, that he really wants me
But what he don't know, is that I love him too

I only did it, to make him really want me
You say you'll get me, but I'll get him too
Shang a doo lang, shang a lang doo lang
Shang a doo lang, shang a lang doo lang
Shang a doo lang, shang shang a doo lang
Shang a doo lang, shang a lang doo lang
But now I think the time is right
So let him take me out tonight

Yes I love him, tell him I love him too
Yes I do, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do
I wanna tell you 'bout a dance

from the grownups down
Don't move your head

Do the hip shake, babe

What you don't know

Do the hip shake, babe

Well, I met a little girl
in a country town
she said, 'What do you know
there's Slim Harpo!'
Didn't move her head
didn't move her hands
didn't move her lips
just shook her hips
Do the hip shake, babe
do the hip shake, babe
shake your hip, babe
shake your hip, babe
well ain't that easy
I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm drivin' in my car
And that man comes on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no, oh no no no
Hey hey hey, that's what I say
I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm watchin' my TV
And that man comes on to tell me
How white my shirts can be
But he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
The same cigarrettes as me
I can't get no, oh no no no
Hey hey hey, that's what I say
I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no girl reaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm ridin' round the world
And I'm doin' this and I'm signing that
And I'm tryin' to make some girl
Who tells me baby better come back later next week
'Cause you see I'm on losing streak
I can't get no, oh no no no
Hey hey hey, that's what I say
I can't get no, I can't get no
I can't get no satisfaction
No satisfaction, no satisfaction, no satisfaction
Let's drink to the hard working people
Let's drink to the lowly of birth
Raise your glass to the good and the evil
Let's drink to the salt of the earth
Say a prayer for the common foot soldier
Spare a thought for his back breaking work
Say a prayer for his wife and his children
Who burn the fires and who still till the earth
And when I search a faceless crowd
A swirling mass of gray and
Black and white
They don't look real to me
In fact, they look so strange
Raise your glass to the hard working people
Let's drink to the uncounted heads
Let's think of the wavering millions
Who need leading but get gamblers instead
Spare a thought for the stay-at-home voter
Empty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows
And a parade of the gray suited grafters
A choice of cancer or polio
And when I look in the faceless crowd
A swirling mass of grays and
Black and white
They don't look real to me
Or don't they look so strange
Let's drink to the hard working people
Let's think of the lowly of birth
Spare a thought for the rag taggy people
Let's drink to the salt of the earth
Let's drink to the hard working people
Let's drink to the salt of the earth
Let's drink to the two thousand million
Let's think of the humble of birth
Oh, I think I had enough of your religion
It's tough, it's a state of mind
I don't need it!
Sending a letter
To my mother
I need some loving
Send it to me

Unfaithful lover

Send it to me
Send it to me
Send it to me
Send it to me
Send it to me
If she can't travel

I can take the aeroplane
Send it to me

Begging you, down on my knees

You, you, got to send it, send it, send it
Send it to me
Send her to me

Send it to me

Seh won't have to relocate

She might work in a factory
Right next door to me
In my fantasy
Send her to me
Send her to me

Please go home
Please go home
Well maybe I’m talkin to fast
But I won’t be the first or the last
In the sea of the thousand you cast
C’mon please go home
I don’t have to ask what you do
I just have to look to get you
Means nothing to me to get through
Please go home
I don’t want to be on my own
Cause I can’t talk much better alone
But I don’t have to ring like a phone
Won’t you please go home
Please go home
In some early part of your days
You were told of the devious ways
That you thought you could get without pay
Won’t you please go home
You reach a state of your mind
Where it’s madness to look and to find
Your false affections so kind
Please go home
Well if you ever plan to motor west
Just take my way that's the highway that's the best
Get your kicks on Route 66
Well it winds from Chicago to L.A.
More than 2000 miles all the way
Get your kicks on Route 66
Well goes from St. Louie down to Missouri
Oklahoma city looks oh so pretty
You'll see Amarillo and Gallup, New Mexico
Flagstaff, Arizona don't forget Winona
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernadino
Would you get hip to this kindly tip
And go take that California trip
Get your kicks on Route 66

I said, "Oh no, doncha follow me no more."
I said, "Oh no, doncha follow me no more."
Well I'm looking for my face
And I got no place to go
I said, "Oh no, doncha follow me no more."
I said, "Oh no, doncha follow me no more."
Well, pick your own mind
And don't you touch mine no more
Still waiting here for a single idea
In your clothes and your hair
I wore it last year
Oh no, doncha follow me no more
I said, "Oh no, doncha copy me no more."
I said, "Oh no, doncha copy me no more."
Well, the lines around my eyes
are protected by a copyright law
Well, all the clubs and the bars
And the little red cars
Not knowing why, but trying to get high
Oh no, doncha follow me no more
Doncha follow
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
No colors anymore I want them painted black.
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes.
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes.
I see a line of cars and their all painted black.
With flowers and my love both never to come back.
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away.
Like a new born baby it just happens every day.
I look inside myself and see my heart is black.
I see my red door I must have it painted black.
maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts.
it's not easy facing up when your whole world is black.
no more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue.
I could not foresee this happening to you.
if I look hard enough into the setting sun.
my love will laugh with me before the morning comes.
I see a red door and I want it painted black
no colors anymore I want them to turn black.
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes.
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes.
*humming*
I want to see it painted, paint it black, black as night, black as coal,
I want to see the sun, blotted out from the sky
I want to see it painted, paint it black
**more humming**
Fling you out into orbit
No one's going to hear you shout
And fools aren't going to follow
You don't send the sleaze about
Now you're sad sad sad
Sad sad sad
Sad sad sad
But you're gonna be fine
The elephant's in the bedroom
Throwing all his weight about
And I'm locked in the bathroom
Your screaams are gonna drown me out
Now you're sad sad sad
Sad sad sad
Sad sad sad
But you're gonna be fine
I got a cold chill
I get a cool thrill
Are you ready for the gilded cage
Are you ready for the tears of rage
Come on baby, don't let them drown you out
Now you're sad sad sad
Sad sad sad
Sad sad sad
But you're gonna be fine
You're gonna be fine
Someone woke me up this mornin' and I lit a cigarette
Found myself when I stopped yawnin', started
Getting myself dressed
Then I felt I had a dream, I remembered the
Things I'd seen
I could still hear the things you said with that bad
Dream in my head
It was a sad day, bad day, sad day, bad day
So I called you on the phone and your friend said
"She’s not home"
So I told her where I'd be at and that you should
Call me back
Then I looked at the morning mail, I was not even
Expecting a bill
Your letter a-started "Dear", and it left me
With these tears.
It was a sad day, bad day, sad day, bad day
Think of the times that we had rows, but we
Patched them up somehow
Think of the times I tried to go, but you screamed
And told me no
There is only one thing in this world that I can't
Understand, that's a girl
I keep a-readin' the things you said, like a bad
Dream in my head
It was a sad day, bad day, sad day, bad day
Oh, what a sad, sad, old day - a sad, old day
It was a sad, old day
A sad, old day it was a bad, old day,
Sad old day a bad old day
If there is one awful thing in this world that I can't
Understand, that's a girl
It was a sad, sad old day, sad old day

Long distance in formation, give me Memphis Tennessee
Help me find the party trying to get in touch with me
She could not leave her number, but I know who placed the
call
'Cause my uncle took the message and he wrote it on the
wall
Help me, information, get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis
Tennessee
Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge
Help me, information, more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee
Last time I saw Marie she's waving me good-bye
With hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her
Try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee
Well I'm a roadrunner, honey

your mouth don't move but I can hear you speak.
What's the matter with the boy?
He don't come around no more,
is he checking out for sure?
Is he gonna close the door on me?
And I'm always hearing voices on the street,
I want to shout, but I can't hardly speak.
I was making love last night
to a dancer friend of mine.
I can't seem to stay in step,
'cause she come ev'ry time that she pirouettes over me.
And I only get my rocks off while I'm dreaming,
I only get my rocks off while I'm sleeping.
I'm zipping through the days at lightning speed.
Plug in, flush out and fire the fuckin feed.
Heading for the overload,
splattered on the dusty road,
kick me like you've kicked before,
I can't even feel the pain no more.
But I only get my rocks off while I'm dreaming,
I only get my rocks off while I'm sleeping.
Feel so hypnotized, can't describe the scene.
Feel so mesmerized all that inside me.
The sunshine bores the daylights out of me.
Chasing shadows moonlight mystery.
Headed for the overload,
splattered on the dirty road,
kick me like you've kicked before,
I can't even feel the pain no more.
But I only get my rocks off while I'm dreaming,
I only get my rocks off while I'm sleeping
Mama says yes, Papa says no,
make up you mind 'cause I gotta go.
I'm gonna raise hell at the Union Hall,
drive myself right over the wall.
Rip this joint, gonna save your soul,
round and round and round we go.
Roll this joint, gonna get down low,
start my starter, gonna stop the show.
Oh, yeah!
Mister President, Mister Immigration Man,
let me in, sweetie, to your fair land.
I'm Tampa bound and Memphis too,
Short Fat Fanny is on the loose.
Dig that sound on the radio,
then slip it right across into Buffalo.
Dick and Pat in ole D.C.,
well they're gonna hold some shit for me.
Ying yang, you're my thing,

Flip Flop, fit to drop,

Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah!
From San Jose down to Santa Fe,

Down to New Orleans with the Dixie Dean,
'cross to Dallas, Texas and the Butter Queen.
Rip this joint, gonna rip yours too,
some brand new steps and some weight to lose.
Gonna roll this joint, gonna get down low,
round and round and round we'll go.
Wham, Bham, Birmingham, Alabam' don't give a damn.
Little Rock fit to drop.
Ah, let it rock.
Well now we're respected in society
We don't worry about the things that we used to be
We're talking heroin with the president
Well it's a problem, sir, but it can't be bent
Uh yes!
Well now you're a pillar of society
You don't worry about the things that you used to be
You're a rag-trade girl, you're the queen of porn
You're the easiest lay on the White House lawn

Gloomy memories

Chief to scorn his friends make love to his
re-la-tions
He beats his wife and made her life a to-tal
wet va-ca-tion
Now did everybody pay their dues?
Now did end up with tribal blues?
All the braves and squaws and the maids
and the whores
Did, everybody pay their dues?
He's a tribal chief his name is called
dis-order
His flesh and blood he tears it up when
acting right is nor-mal
Now did everybody pay their dues?
Now did any of them try to refuse?
All the braves and squaws and the maids

I can't feel
Feel a thing
I can't shout
I can't scream
Breathe it out
Breathe it in
All this love
From within
I won't cry when you say goodbye
I'm out of tears
I won't die when you wave goodbye
I'm out of tears
Out of tears
I won't drink
I won't eat
I can't hear
I won't speak
Let it out
Let it in
All this pain
From within
And I just can't pour my heart out
To another living thing
I'm a whisper
I'm a shadow
But I'm standing up to sing
I won't cry when you say goodbye
I'm out of tears
I won't die when you wave goodbye
I'm out of tears, yes I am
I won't cry, I swear my eyes are dry
I'm out of tears
I won't cry, I'm going to tell you why
I'm out of tears
Out of tears
Out of tears
let it out
From within
Some you lose
Some you win
I can drift
I can dream
Til I float
Off your screen
And I just can't pore my heart out
To another living thing
I'm a whisper
I'm a shadow
But I'm standing up to sing
I won't cry when you say goodbye
I'm out of tears
I won't die when you wave goodbye
I'm out of tears
I won't cry, I swear my eyes are dry
I'm out of tears
I won't cry, I'm going to tell you why
I'm out of tears
Out of tears
Out of tears

I was out in the city
I was out in the rain
I was feeling down-hearted
I was drinking again
I was standing by the bridges
Where the dark water flows
I was talking to a stranger
About times long ago
I was young
I was foolish
I was angry
I was vain
I was charming
I was lucky
Tell me how have I changed
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Oh help me now

And the boys on the game
And the drunks and the homeless
They all know me
And the police on the corner
Give a nod and a wave
As they point me
To my final destination
I was young
I was foolish
I was angry
I was vain
I was charming
Feeling lucky
Tell me how have I changed
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Oh help me now
In the hotel I'm excited
By the smile on her face
But I wondered
How was time
Gonna change her
I was young
I was foolish
I was angry
I was vain
I was charming
I was out there
Tell me how have I changed
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Oh I'm out
Oh out of control
Good evening one and all we're all so glad to see you here
We'll play your favorite songs while you're all soak up the atmosphere
We'll start with old man river, then maybe stormy weather, too
I'm sure you know just what to do
On with the show good health to you
Please pour another glass, it's time to watch the cabaret
Your wife will never know that you're not really working late
Your hostess here is Wendy, you'll find her very friendly, too
And we don't care just what you do
On with the show good health to you
Petina, start the show at 2 o'clock
And if by chance you find that you can't make it anymore
We'll put you in a cab and get you safely to the door
But we've got all the answers, and we've got lovely dancers, too
There's nothing else you have to do
On with the show good health to you
You're all such lovely people dancing gaily round the floor
But if you have to fight, please take your trouble out the door
For now I say with sorrow, until this time tomorrow
We'll bid you all a fond adieu
You fell out of the clear blue sky
to the darkness below
The smell of your flesh excites me
my blood starts to flow
So help me God
You burst in, in a blaze of light
you unzippered the dark
One kiss took my breath away
one look lights up the stars
And it's one hit to the body
it comes straight from the heart
And it's one hit to the body
sure went straight to the mark,
So help me God
It's one shot when you love me
one shot when you leave
I don't need no security
I just need me some peace
And it's one hit to the body
it comes straight from the heart
One voice calls out my name
It sure went straight to the mark
One punch and you knocked me down
tore my defenses apart
One round took me out of the game
you did me some permanent harm
It took just one hit
It took just one hit
It ain't enough for me
It ain't enough for me
It ain't enough for me
It's hurting me, baby
Oh, your love is a sweet addiction
I can't clean you out of my veins
It's a life long addiction
that has damaged my brain
It took just one hit to the body
to tear my defenses apart
One hit to the body
sure went straight to the mark
One hit to the body
to the body, to the body
Comes straight from the heart
One hit to the body
and it comes straight from the heart
One hit to the body
and it comes straight from the heart
That's all it took, that's all it took
So help me, so help me God
So help me, so help me God
One hit to the body
and it comes straight from the heart
One hit to the body
and it comes straight from the heart
Mick Jagger with Dave Stewart
I thought I shook myself free
You see I bounce back quicker than most
But I,m half delirious, Is too mysterous
You walk through my walls like a ghost
And I take everyday at a time
I,m as proud as a Lion in his Lair
Now there,s no denying it, a note to crying it
Your all tangled up in my head
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
OLD soldiers just fade away
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
Harder than November rain
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
OLD soldiers just fade away
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
HARD enough to feel the pain
We haven,t spoken in months
You see I,ve been counting the days
I dream of such humanities, such insanities
I,m lost like a kid and I,m late
But I,ve never taken your coats
Haven,t no block on my phone
I act like an addict, I just got to have it
I can never just leave it alone
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
OLD soldiers just fade away
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
Harder than November rain
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
OLD soldiers just fade away
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
HARD enough to feel the pain
And I can,t give you up
Can,t leave you alone
And its so HARD, so HARD
And HARD enough to feel the pain
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
OLD soldiers just fade away
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
Harder than November rain
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
OLD soldiers just fade away
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
HARD enough to feel the pain.
My obsession

Every piece that i can get

You need teaching you're a girl
There are things in this world
That need teaching with discretion, my profession
My obsessions are
Your possessions
Are you used to the idea
My obsessions are
Your possessions
Do you feel at home right here
You should relax it's my impression
Didn't see you were so young
I could almost be your son
(Carmichael/Washington)
It's not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me, oh no
It's just the nearness of you
It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh no
It's just the nearness of you
When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true
I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you
I got sunshine, on a cloudy day
When it's cold outside, I got the month of May
I guess, you'll say,
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl) my girl
Talkin' 'bout my girl
I go so much honey, the bees envy me
I've got a sweeter song, baby, than the birds in the trees
I guess, you'll say,
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl) my girl
Talkin' 'bout my girl
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey (oooh)
I don't need no money, fortune or fame
I've got all the riches, baby, one man can claim
I guess, you'll say,
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl) my girl
Talkin' 'bout my girl
I got sunshine, on a cloudy day
I even got the month of May
There's a new guy in town
He's been dragging around
He's the figure of youth
And his eyes are so blue
And they're looking at you
So tell me the truth
Well, well he's got stories to tell
He bites off more than he chews
Well, well is he ringing your bell
My heart is breaking in two
And his skin is so fair
And it shines like his hair
As he stands so aloof
With an indolent air
And an insolent stare
He just shutters the truth
Well, well is he ringing your bell
My heart is breaking in two
Well, well he'll be rotting in hell
For playing the devil with you
It is aready too late
No point shutting the gate
Have you already swallowed the bait
And you're gone
As he knocks you down cold
As you lose all control
To this slip of a youth
I see fire in his eyes
I see ice in his smile
And I'm learning the truth
Well, well he's got stories to tell
Of love that is long overdue
Well, well who is under his spell
When the wind blows and the rain feels cold
with a head full of snow
with a head full of snow
In the window there's a face you know
Don't the night pass slow?
Don't the night pass slow?
Sound of strangers sending nothing to my mind
Just another mad, mad day on the ro-oad
I am just living to be lying by your side
But I'm just about a moonlight mile, on down the road
Made a rag pile of my shiny clothes
Gonna warm my bones,
gonna warm my bones
I got silence on my radio
Let the air waves flow,
let the air waves flow
For I am sleeping under strange strange skies
Just another mad, mad day on the road
My dreams is fading down the railway line
I'm just about a moonlight mile down the ro-oad-woad
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm riding sister and I'm dreamin'
I'm riding down your moonlight mile
I'm riding sister and I'm dreamin'
I'm riding down your moonlight mile
I'm riding down your moonlight mile
Let it go now, come on up baby
Yeah, let it go now, yeah come on now baby
Yeah, I'm coming home 'cause
I'm just about a moonlight mile on down the road
on down the road, down the road
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby ahhh
I'm a fleabit peanut monkey
All my friends are junkies
That's not really true
I'm a cold Italian pizza
I could use a lemon squeezer
Would you do?
But I've been bit and I've been tossed around
By every she-rat in this town
Have you, babe?
Well, I am just a monkey man
I'm glad you are a monkey woman too
I was bitten by a boar
I was gouged and I was gored
But I pulled it on through
Yes, I'm a sack of broken eggs
I always have an unmade bed
Don't you?
Well, I hope we're not too messianic
Or a trifle too satanic
We love to play the blues
Well I am just a monkey man
I'm glad you are a monkey, monkey woman too, babe
I'm a monkey
I'm a monkey
I'm a monkey man
I'm a monkey man
MISS AMANDA JONES
Down and down she goes
Our, Amanda Jones
I said down and down and down and down
She'd look really lovely at home
Til somebody gonna come up and ask her
To live happily ever after, Miss Amanda Jones
On and on she goes
Little Miss Amanda Jones
I said on and on and on and on
Just watch her as she grow
Don't wanna say it very obviously
But she's losing her nobility, Miss Amanda Jones
Hey girl don't you realize
The money invested in you
Hey girl you just got to find
Someone who'll really pull your family through
Up and up she goes
Our amanda jones
I said up and up and up and up
She looks quite delightfully stoned
She's the darling of the discotheque crowd
Of her lineage she's rightfully proud, miss amanda jones
Hey girl with your nonsense nose
All pointing right down at the floor
Hey girl your suspender shows
And the girl behind you looks a bit unsure
Round and round she goes
The world of amanda jones
I said round and round and round and round
The balls and the dinners and show
The little girl she just wanders about
Til it's time for her coming out, miss amanda jones
Round and round and round

There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Risin' Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy.
And God, I know I'm one.
My mother was a tailor.
She sewed my new blue jeans.
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans.
Now, the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time that he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk
Oh, Mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done.
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the house of the risin' sun.
Well, I've got one foot on the platform.
the other foot on the train.
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain.
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Risin' Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy.
And God, I know I'm one.

He don't go in the light of the morning
He's split, the time the cook'rel crows

Hannah honey was a peachy kind of girl
Her eyes were hazel and her nose was slightly curved
We spent a lonely night at the Memory Motel
It's on the ocean I guess you know it well
It took a starry night to steal my breath away
Down on the waterfront her hair all drenched
in spray
Hannah baby was a honey of a girl
Her eyes were hazel her teeth were slightly curved
She took my guitar and she began to play
She sang a song to me, stuck right in my brain
You're just a memory of a love that used to be
You're just a memory of a love that used to mean so
much to me
She got a mind of her own and she use it well, yeah
Well she's one of a kind
got a mind
She got a mind of her own, yeah, and she use it mighty fine
She drove a pick-up truck painted green and blue
The tires were wearing thin she done a mile or two
And when I asked her where she headed for
(Back up to Boston I'm singing in a bar)
I got to fly today on down to Baton Rouge
My nerves are shot already the road ain't all that smooth
Across in Texas is the rose of San Antone
I keep on a feeling that gnawing in my bones
You're just a memory (just a memory) of a love that used to mean so
much to me
(just a memory)
You're just a memory of a love that used to mean so

She got a mind of her own and she use it well
Mighty fine she's one of a kind
She got a mind of her own
She's one of a kind and she use it well
On the seventh day my eyes were all aglaze
We been ten thousand miles and been in fifteen states
Every woman seemed to fade out of my mind
I hit the bottle and I hit the sack and cried
What's all this laughter on the twenty-second floor?
It's just some friends of mine and they're busting
down the doors
It's been a lonely night at the Memory Motel
You're just a memory girl just a memory
And it used to mean so much to me

Have mercy, have mercy, baby
Have mercy, have mercy on me
Well I went to see the gypsy
To have my fortune read She said "Man, your baby gonna leave you
Her bags are packed up under the bed,"
That's right
Have mercy, have mercy, baby

But if you leave me baby
Girl if you put me down

And jump overboard and drown

And in this crazy world of hit and run

Waiting for my flesh to creep

Melody, it was her second name
Melody, it was her second name
Came home one morning about quarter to three
I'm banging on my door cause I just lost my key
Open up, baby, you got someone else inside

Melody, it was her second name
Melody, it was her second name
Melody, it was her second name
Melody, it was her second name
I took her out dancing but she drank away my cash
She said, "I'm going to fix my face don't you worry I'll be back"
I'm looking for her high and low like a mustard for a ham
She was crashed out in the bathroom
In the arms of my best friend
Melody, it was her second name
Melody, it was her second name
Melody, it was her second name
Melody, it was her second name...
Then one day she left me
She took everything that moved

To roast that child alive

Give me little drink from your loving cup
Just one drink and I'll fall down drunk
I'm the man who walks the hillside in the sweet summer sun
I'm the man that brings you roses when you ain't got none
Well I can run and jump and fish, but I won't fight you
if you want to push and pull with me all night
Give me little drink from you loving cup
Just one drink and I'll fall down drunk

See your face dancing in the flame,
feel your mouth kissing me again,

what a beautiful buzz, what a beautiful buzz
Oh, what a beautiful buzz, what a beautiful buzz
Yes, I am nitty gritty and my shirt's all torn,

Give me little drink from you loving cup
Just one drink and I'll fall down drunk
Ain’t it funny how things happen
Just as we think we got it all straight
Everything seems to be moving forward
But instead we just sit around and wait
Seems things are in a lock down
Nervous looks all around
Everyone is speaking in whispers
No one wants to make a sound
I’m losing my touch
Losing my touch.
Losing my touch, baby,
Way to much, baby,
Get me out of here.
Should be clear.
Keep an eye out,
On your front door, baby
Ill be slipping in round the back

And then ill let you hit the sack
Cuz, I’m losing my touch.
Losing my touch.
Yes, I’m losing my touch
Way too much.
Baby, get me out of here…
Should be clear.

Baby, get me out of here…
Well it must be clear
Losing my touch,

Lookin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
You're gettin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
Ain't in the right place, to try and change the tide
You sit and read, but all you do is moan
You sit and read, but all you do is moan
Ain't no wonder, you're sittin' there on your own
You're readin' the cover of a pseudo paperback
You're readin' the cover of a pseudo paperback
Displays about writers, Chaucer to Steinbeck
You're lookin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
You're lookin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
It's only yourself, you're takin' for a ride
You say you won't change, but do you really care
You say you won't change, but do you really care
You can't do much just sittin' there in your chair
I said, hey babe, hey where you been all night?
I said, hey babe, hey where you been all night?
Your clothes all tangled, sure ain't talkin' right
You're lookin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
You're lookin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
Baby, baby been a long, long time, been a long, long time
Been a long, long time, I was wrong girl and you were right
Baby, baby, took a long, long while, took a long, long while
Took a long, long while, but I found out you were right
Still you have those happy eyes. I will try and apologize
Baby, baby, still the same old smile
Still the same old smile
Still the same old smile, I was so wrong
Babe and you were right
Still you have those happy eyes
Yes! I, I'm gonna try

It's been such a long lonely time
It's been such a long, a long, long time
I was wrong, but I admit, I admit you were right
Oh baby, baby I just want to change your mind
I am the little red rooster, too lazy to crow today
I am the little red rooster, too lazy to crow today
Keep everything in the farmyard
Upset in ev'ry way
The dogs begin to barkin', hounds begin to howl
Dogs begin to barkin', hounds begin to howl
Watch out strange cat people
Little red rooster's on the prowl
If you see my little red rooster, please drive him home
If you see my little red rooster, please drive him home
Ain't no peace in the farmyard
Since my little red rooster's been gone
I got the lumps in my throat
When I saw her coming down the aisle
I gets the wiggles in my knees
When she looked at me and sweetly smiled
There she is again standing over by the record machine
Oooh, she's looking like a model on the cover of a magazine
Why she's too cute to be a minute over seventeen
Meanwhile, I was thinking
She's in the mood
No need to break it
I got the chance
I oughtta take it
She can dance
We can make it
Come on queenie
Let's shake it
Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Won't ya tell me who the queen's
Standing over by the record machine
Why she's looking like a model
On the cover of a magazine
Yeah she's too cute to be a minute over seventeen
Meanwhile, I was still thinkin'
If it's a slow song, we'll omit it
If it's a rocker, that'll get it
If it's good, she'll admit it
Come on queenie, lets get with it
Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Go, go, go, Little Queenie

cats, turn to look around
She walkin' down the street, all the cats, all the cats, all the
cats, turn to look around
She a fine dog-gone lady, she the best lookin' girl we had in
this town
Gonna remember that girl on Saturday night
We go out for the rest of my nights
And in my roamin' and Daisy too
And it's all because of that chick...
Linda Linda Linda Linda Linda, tell me what's you gonna
Had a real bad dream last night

Whaa-lin-looo
(Phelge/Spector)
tried to trail you last night, baby, trail you in my car
but i was afraid of what i was looking for
and little by little i'm losin my love for you
yeah, little by little i've found out you was untrue
alright, Keith, come on, now
well i try not to bear a grudge, a girl's gonna hitch a ride
things ain't been the same since my mother died
yeah, little by little, i'm losin my love for you
Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People'd call, say 'Beware doll, you're bound to fall'
You thought they were all kiddin' you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin' out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And ask him do you want to make a deal?
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the
downs
When they all come down and did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
Who's that woman on your arm all dressed up to do you harm?
And I'm hip to what she'll do, give her just about a month or two.
Bit off more than I can chew and I knew what it was leading to,
Some things, well, I can't refuse,
One of them, one of them the bedroom blues.
She delivers right on time, I can't resist a corny line,
But take the shine right off you shoes,
Carryin', carryin' the bedroom blues.
Oo... In the bar you're getting drunk,
I ain't in love, I ain't in luck.
Hide the switch and shut the light, let it all come down tonight.
Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger,
Some face you'll never see no more.
Let it all come down tonight.
(Chuck Berry)
In the heat of the day down in Mobile, Alabama
Working on the railroad with the steel driving hammer
Gotta make some money to buy some brand new shoes
Tryin' to find somebody to take away these blues
"She don't love me" hear them singing in the sun
Payday's coming and my work is all done
Later in the evening when the sun is sinking low
All day I been waiting for the whistle to blow
Sitting in a teepee built right on the tracks
Rolling them bones until the foreman comes back
Pick up you belongings boys and scatter about
We've got an off-schedule train comin? two miles about
Everybody's scrambling, running around
Picking up their money, tearing the teepee down
Foreman wants to panic, ?bout to go insane
Trying to get the workers out the way of the train
Engineer blows the whistle loud and long
Can't stop the train, gotta let it roll on
My sweet lady Jane, when I see you again
Your servant am I, and will humbly remain
Just heed this plea, my love. On bended knees my love
I pledge myself to lady Jane
My dear lady Anne, I've done what I can
I must take my leave, for promised I am
The play is run, my love. Your time has come my love
I pledge my soul to lady Jane
Oh, my sweet Marie, I wait at your ease
The sands have run out, for your lady and me
When love is nigh, my love, her station's right my love
Life is secure with lady Jane
I look out my window watch her as she passes by
I say to myself I'm such a lucky guy
To have a girl like her is a dream come true
And of all the girls in New York she loves me true
It was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
Soon we'll be married and raise a family
Two boys for you, what about two girls for me
I tell you I am just a fellow with a one track mind
Whatever it is I want baby I seek and I shall find
I'll tell ya
It was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
Every night I hope and pray
'Dear lord, hear my plea
Don't ever let another take her love from me
Or I will surely die'
Her love is ecstasy
when her arms enfold me
I hear her tender rhapsody
But in reality, she doesn't even know...me
I look out my window watch her as she passes by
I say to myself I'm such a lucky guy
To have a girl like her is a dream come true
And of all the girls in New York she loves me true
It was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
Soon we'll be married and raise a family
Two boys for you, what about two girls for me
I tell you I am just a fellow with a one track mind
Whatever it is I want baby I seek and I shall find
I'll tell ya
It was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
Every night I hope and pray
'Dear lord, hear my plea
Don't ever let another take her love from me
Or I will surely die'
Her love is ecstasy
when her arms enfold me
I hear her tender rhapsody
But in reality, she doesn't even know...me
John Wesley Harding
Was a friend to the poor,
He trav'led with a gun in ev'ry hand.
All along this countryside,
He opened a many a door,
But he was never known
To hurt a honest man.
'Twas down in Chaynee County,
A time they talk about,
With his lady by his side
He took a stand.
And soon the situation there
Was all but straightened out,
For he was always known
To lend a helping hand.
All across the telegraph
His name it did resound,
But no charge held against him
Could they prove.
And there was no man around
Who could track or chain him down,
He was never known
Jivin' Sister Fanny, told her man from Philadelphia, PA
Uh, huh, huh, huh
He tore down the station said she didn't like the way we played
Uh, huh, huh, huh
If you got a favourite guy, get you babe, real no why
Man from you down inside, got it feathered by the while
Ooh, child, you got me walkin' down the broad highway
Uh, huh, huh, huh
Now, Jivin' Sister Fanny got the brain of a dinosaur
Uh, huh, huh, huh
Well, she hocked my fancy mother and she hocked my electric guitar
Then she's waitin' in the store, tell her to wait, er, waitin' for
Glad she's on the waiting good
By Charles oh watch 'er, you wait good
Ooh, child, you got me walkin' down the broad highway
I've been working so hard, And feelin' no
pain
Sure got pains in my head, My legs feel
limp
Don't want to hear no noise, Don't want to
hear you cuss
I need peace of mind, Don't you make no
fuss
Jump on top of me baby, Jump on top of

Jump on top of me girl, Give it to me nice

Well there's too much talkin', 'bout this an'

Jump on top of me girl, Give it to me nice

There's a tramp sittin' on my doorstep
Tryin to waste his time
with his mentholated sandwich
He's a walking clothes line
And here comes the bishops daughter
On the other side
She looks a triffle jeolous
She's been an outcast all her life
Me, I'm waiting so patiently
Lying on the floor
I'm just trying to do my jig-saw puzzle
Before it rains anymore
Oh the gangster looks so frightning
with his luger in his hand
when he gets home to his children
he's a family man
but when it comes to the nitty-gritty
he can shove in his knife
Yes he really looks quite religious
He's been an outlaw all his life
Me, I'm waiting so patiently
Lying on the floor
I'm just trying to do this jig-saw puzzle
Before it rains anymore
Me, I'm waiting so patiently
Lying on the floor
I'm just trying to do this jig-saw puzzle
Before it rains anymore
Oh the singer, he looks angry
At being thrown to the lions
And the bass player, he looks nervous
About the girls outside
And the drummer, he was shattered
Trying to keep up time
And the guitar players look damaged
They've been outcasts all thier lives
Me, I'm waiting so patiently
Lying on the floor
I'm just trying to do this jig-saw puzzle
Before it rains anymore
And as twenty thousand grandma's
Waving thier hankies in the air
All burning up their pensions
And shouting, It's not fair!
There's a regiment of soldiers
Standing looking on
And the queen is bravely shouting,
What the Hell is going on
With a blood-curdling tally-ho
She charged into the ranks
And blessed all those grandma's who
With their dying breaths screamed, Thanks!
Me, I'm waiting so patiently
With my woman on the floor
We're just trying to do this jig-saw puzzle
Before it rains anymore
I'm waitin' for you, I'm makin' town
I'm walkin' for you, over ground
I won't see you walkin' away
I can't stand you actin' this way ... I want
I wanna see you, all the way at all
I play hidin' the whole way all the place at all
Ahhh...
Mmmm me I'm, soakin' there, ahhh now over around
I won't see you walkin' away, I won't see you every night
And, I'm not the same, oh
Going away you
Runnin', runnin' away you
All the way, at all
I think, runnin' to hear you
I'm glad, I don't hear you
All the way at all
I'm thinkin'
I soakin' down
I'm lookin' for you
Up town
I'm livin' with you, and zip your gone
Everybody hittin' bottom
Yeah, I won't see you walkin' my way
I won't catch you to me every day
I won't see you you walkin' away, at all
eeehhh
I won't cry
I won't lie
I know everybody's going there to cry
It's Only Rock 'N Roll (But I Like It)
If I could stick my pen in my heart
And spill it all over the stage
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya
Would you think the boy is strange? Ain't he strange?
If I could win ya, if I could sing ya
A love song so divine
Would it be enough for your cheating heart
If I broke down and cried? If I cried?

If I could stick a knife in my heart
Suicide right on stage
Would it be enough for your teenage lust
Would it help to ease the pain? Ease your brain?
If I could dig down deep in my heart
Feelings would flood on the page
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya
Would ya think the boy's insane? He's insane

So love me, hold me, love me, hold me

I'm free to sing my song though it gets out of time
I'm free to sing my song though it gets out of time
So love me, hold me, love me, hold me
And I'm free any old time to get what I want
Love me, hold me, love me, hold me
But I'm free any old time to get what I want
I'm free to choose what I please any old time
I'm free to choose what I please any old time
So hold me, love me, love me, hold me

I said I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it, like it, yes, I do.
Oh, well, I like it, I like it. I like it...
She's sweet and tender, but I remember
The girl I once knew, made me feel so blue
She loves me madly, I treat her badly
'Cause girl, it should be you, it should be you
It should be you, it should be you...
I went all wrong, when you were gone
It seems ashame, but I'm to blame
She loves me madly, I treat her badly
'Cause girl, it should be you, it should be you
it should be you, it should be you...
What can I do to win her back
She kisses me but it's not the same
I'm broken hearted, since we parted
I wanna pick up, from where we started
She loves me madly, I treat her badly
'Cause girl, it should be you, it should be you
You said you was hurting, almost lost your mind,
And the man you love, he hurts you all the time.
When things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too.
You love him more when you should love him less.
I pick up behind him and take his mess.
When things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too.
He love another woman and I love you,
But you love him and stick to him like glue.
When things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too.
Now you better leave him; he better put you down.
Oh, I won't stand to see you pushed around.
Okay...

Fanfare For The Common Man
Written by Aaron Copland

Always thinking of you
Don't wait too long
When things go wrong
I'll be there, right there
Imagination
By Jagger/Richards
I look out my window watch her as she passes by
I say to myself I'm such a lucky guy
To have a girl like her is a dream come true
And of all the girls in New York she loves me true
It was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
Soon we'll be married and raise a family
Two boys for you, what about two girls for me
I tell you I am just a fellow with a one track mind
Whatever it is I want baby I seek and I shall find
I'll tell ya
It was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
Every night I hope and pray
"Dear lord, hear my plea
Don't ever let another take her love from me
Or I will surely die"
Her love is ecstasy
When her arms enfold me
I hear her tender rhapsody
But in reality, she doesn't even know... me
If you really want to be my friend,
let me live it up like I used to do.
If you really want to understand me,
there's some giving up we got to do.
I know ev'rybody wants to be your man;
I don't want to tie you up, go ahead, you're free.
And I never want to scar you with my brand;
we could live it up, just a you and me.
If you really want to understand a man;
then I'm off to need some time, set me free.
If you really, really want to be my friend,
give me a little love, not jealousy.
I know you think that life is a thriller,
you play the vamp, I play the killer.
Now baby, what's the use of fighting?
By the last we will be cryin' cryin', cryin.
If you really want to be my man,
get your nails out of my back,
stop using me.
You know I really, really want to be your friend,
but just a little faith is all we need.
I don't want no dog eat dog world for you and me;
get your nails out, stop bleeding me.
You know, people tell me you are a vulture,
say you're a sore in a cancer culture.
Ay, but you got a little charm around you.
I'll be there when they finally hound you,
hound you, hound you.
If you really want to be my friend,
and I really want to understand you baby,
If you really want to be my friend,
if you really want to understand me.
I really want to be your man;
I want to try to give you a helping hand.
I really want to be your friend;
I want to push you when you're up
and pull you when you're down.
If you really want you to understand me
I'll tell you something, that love can't thrive on jealousy.
I really want to understand you,
I really want to be your man;
'cause understanding is something ev'rybody needs.
I really want to be your friend,
and I love you, love you, yes, I do.
Here I am
All alone and all dressed up to kill
Cause I'd much rather be with the boys
Than be with you
Here I am
With the gang, I don't care where you are
Cause I'd much rather be with the boys
Than be with you
I hold up my head up high when I walk down the street
Now I'm a man I'm standing on my own two feet
Don't try to call me cause now I know the score
and now i know that i don't need you anymore
Don't put me on
It's over now, it's no good looking back
Cause I'd much rather be with the boys
Who's fooling who
It's over now and you've had all your headache from me
Cause I'd much rather be with the boys
Yes I'd much rather be with teh boys
Yes I'd much rather be with the boys
And the boys and the boys they would
Much rather be with the boys than with girls like you
Girls like you
In another land where the breeze and the
Trees and flowers were blue
I stood and held your hand.
And the grass grew high and the feathers floated by
I stood and held your hand.
And nobody else's hand will ever do
Nobody else will do
Then I awoke
Was this some kind of joke
Much to my surprise
I opened my eyes.
We walked across the sand and the sea and
The sky and the castles were blue.
I stood and held your hand.
And the spray flew high and the feathers floated by
I stood and held your hand.
And nobody else's hand will ever do
Nobody else will do
Then I awoke
Was this some kind of joke
Much to my surprise
When I opened my eyes.
We heard the trumpets blow and the sky
Turned red when I accidently said
That I didn't know how I came to be here
Not fast asleep in bed.
I stood and held your hand.
And nobody else's hand will ever do
Nobody else's hand
Then I awoke
Was this some kind of joke
I opened my eyes.
(Jagger/Richards)
I stand accused of talking
But I feel that we are falling
In the same old groove
The radio is playing
Spitting out the same old news
It's time to get up, get out
Get out into something new
Time to get up, get out
Out into something new
Everybody wants somebody's fantasy
Everybody wants somebody's crazy dreams
Everybody wants somebody's fantasy
Everybody wants somebody's crazy dreams
If I was a woman, I would want a new man every night
If I was a woman, I would want a new man every night
If I was a politician, make sure I was the best in sight
If I was a woman, I would want a new man every night
The poor man eyes the rich man
Denigrates his poverty
The rich man eyes the poor man
And envies his simplicity
Everybody wants somebody's fantasy
Everybody wants somebody's crazy dreams
If I was a movie star, five million dollars would be my price
If I was a trucker, I'd drive for seven days and seven lonely
nights
If I was a drummer, I would never miss the beat
If I was a dancer, y'all would never see my feet
If I was a hooker, a thousand dollars would be my price, all
right
If I was a candidate for President, I'd make sure I had a
steady wife
If I was a millionaire, I'd spend all my money in one crazy
night
I am what I am
(?) boss ??
I am what I am
My dreams can't be bought
Yeah, I said now here comes a dollar fifty(?)
Stranding in New York(?)
Yeah, I am what I am
Everybody wants somebody's crazy dreams
Everybody want somebody's fantasy
Everybody wants somebody's crazy dreams
I'm Yours And I'm Hers
(Johnny Winter)

Though our love fall down in dark clouds
Though I saw a man

There's nothing for me but the powers that be
I know I, I know I, I know I,
That you're down
Oh you're going down

My love is growing stronger, as you become a haven to me
Oh I've been loving you a little too long
I dont wanna stop now, oh
With you my life,
Has been so wonderful
I can't stop now
There were times and your love is growing cold
My love is growing stronger as our affair grows old

Good god of mine]I love you

Hey Negrita, hey now
Move your body, move your mouth
Shake lady, way down south
Shake baby, in your home town
Come si chiama, what's you game
I'm just a poor man, what's your name
Shake your body, do it up now
Shake body, move it up now
Hey Negrita, hey now
Hey conchita, shake it up now
Bate las caderas, do it up now
Flash of gold in your ears, child
Flash of gold in your eyes
Saw the gleam in your mouth
Saw the steel in your thighs
Do it up now
Bate las caderas, do it up now
Just a momentita, not so fast
I need money, my sweet ass
Listen I'm a poor man
My pay is low
Here's one last dollar, then we go
"One last dollar," she say "I got my pride"
Going to get your boss, boy
Going to tan your hide
Hey Negrita, hey now
That's all right, that's all right, that's all right.
Sometimes you feel like trouble, sometimes you feel down.
Let this music relax you mind, let this music relax you mind.
Stand up and be counted, can't get a witness.
Sometimes you need somebody, if you have somebody to love.
Sometimes you ain't got nobody and you want somebody to love.
Then you don't want to walk and talk about Jesus,
You just want to see His face.
You don't want to walk and talk about Jesus,
You just want to see His face.
As I stand by your flame, I get burned once again
Feelin' low down, I'm blue
As I sit by the fire of your warm desire
I've got the blues for you, yeah
Every night you've been away
I've sat down and I have prayed
That you're safe in the arms of a guy
Who will bring you alive, won't drag you down with abuse
In the silk sheet of time, I will find peace of mind
Love is a bed full of blues
And I've got the blues for you
And I've got the blues for you
And I'll bust my brains out for you
And I'll tear my hair out
I'm gonna tear my hair out just for you
If you don't believe what I'm singing
At three o'clock in the morning, babe
Round round get around
I get around
Yeah get around woo, woo, woo......
Get around, get around, I get around
(Porter)
My story is much too sad to be told,
But practically everything leaves me totally cold.
The only exception I know is the case,
When I'm out on a quiet spree fightly vainly the old ennui,
And I suddenly turn and see your fabulous face!
I get no kick from champagne, mere alcohol doesn't thrill me
at all,
So tell me why should it be true, that I get a kick out of you?
Some get a kick from cocaine, I'm sure that if I took even
one sniff
That would bore me terrifically, too, yet I get a kick out of
you.
I get a kick every time I see you're standing there before me.
I get a kick though it's clear to me, you obviously don't
adore me.
I get no kick in a plane, flying too high with some gal in the
Is my idea of nothing to do, yet I get a kick out of you!
I don't want you be no slave
I don't want you work all day
I don't want 'cause I'm sad and blue
I just want to make love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
Love to you
I don't want you cook my bread
I don't want you make my bed
I don't want your money too
I just want to make love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
Love to you
Well I can tell by the way that you twitch and walk
See by the way that you baby talk
Know by the way that you treat your man
I can love you, baby, till the night train
I don't want you wash my clothes
I don't want you leave the home
I don't want 'cause I'm sad and blue
I just want to make love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
Love to you
Yeah
I don't want you wash my clothes
I don't want you leave the home
I don't want 'cause I'm sad and blue
I just want to make love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
Sweet love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
I just wanna make love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
Love to you, baby
Love to you
I just, I just want ot make love to you, baby
Meet me on the bottom,
bring me my running shoes.
When I come out the window,
we ain't got time to lose.
Well I ain't superstitious,
but a black cat crossed my trail.
Don't brush me with my broom, Babe,
I just might land in jail.
Well my right hand itchin', Babe,
I get smothered by the shore.
Look down you engine, Babe,
but somebody got to go.
Meet me on the bottom, Babe,
bring me my running shoes.
When I come out the window, Babe,
we ain't got time to lose.
Well I hope you are listening,
when I come streaking by.
Got a bad old man, Babe,
and I'm too young to die.
Well I ain't superstitious,
but a black cat crossed my trail.
Don't brush me with my broom, Babe,
I just might land in jail.
Dogs been barking
all around my neighborhood.
You give a sign, Babe,
Who wants yesterdays papers
Who wants yesterdays girl
Who wants yesterdays papers
Nobody in the world
After this time I finally learned
After the pain and hurt
After all this what have I achieved
I've realized it's time to leave
Cause
Cho wants yesterdays papers
Who wants yesterdays girl
Who wants yesterdays papers
Nobody in the world
Living a life of constant change
Every day means the turn of a page
Yesterdays papers are such bad news
Same thing applies to me and you
Who wants yesterdays papers
Who wants yesterdays girl
Who wants yesterdays papers
Nobody in the world
Seems very hard to have just one girl
When there's a million in the world
All of these people just can't wait
To fall right into their big mistake
Who wants yesterdays papers
Who wants yesterdays girl
Who wants yesterdays papers
