JOHN DENVER lyrics - Song For The Life



(Crowell)



I don't drink as much as I used to, lately it just ain't my style.

And the hard times don't hurt like they ought to,

They pass quickly like when I was a child.

Somehow I've learned how to listen for a sound like the sun going down.

In the magic the morning is bringing, there's a song for the life I have found.

It keeps my feet on the ground.



Don't the midsummer days sit so heavy.

But don't they flow like a breeze through your mind.

And nothing occurs in a hurry to make up for someone's lost time.

Somehow I've learned how to listen for a sound like the sun going down.

In the magic the morning is bringing, there's a song for the friend I have found.

She keeps my feet on the ground.



Somehow I've learned how to listen for a sound like the breeze dying down.

In the magic the morning is bringing, there's a song for the life I have found.

It keeps my feet on the ground. Ooh, yes, it keeps my feet on the ground.


HANK WILLIAMS, JR. lyrics - If Heaven Ain't A Lot Like Dixie



If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I don't wanna go

If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I'd just as soon stay home



I was one of the chosen few

To be born in Alabam

I'm just alike my daddy's son

I'm proud of who I am

I went through a lot of good women

And shook old Jim Beam's hand

If I never see the pearly gates

I've walked through the promised land



If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I don't wanna go

If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I'd just as soon stay home

If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry

Like they do in Tennessee

Just send me to hell or New York City

It would be about the same to me



I've got wild honey trees and crazy little weeds

Growin around my shack

These dusty roads ain't streets of gold

But I'm a happy right where I'm at

All these pretty little southern belles

Are a country boy's dream

They ain't got wings or halos

But they sure look good to me



If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I don't wanna go

If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I'd just as soon stay home

If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I don't wanna go

If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I'd just as soon stay home

If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry

Like they do in Tennessee

Just send me to hell or New York City

It would be about the same to me



If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I don't wanna go

If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I'd just as soon stay home

If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I don't wanna go

If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie

I'd just as soon stay home

If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry

Like they do in Tennessee

Just send me to hell or New York City

It would be about the same to me

DARYL HALL AND JOHN OATES lyrics - Winged Bull



Well I'm looking at her from a rock &

roll tower

With the windows, its eyes

And its black stained sides that can't

be climbed

"cause they're slick as wet glass

And the gate lets the force out, but thru

"none shall pass"



But when I'm with you it's just me in my time

Guess I've taken some form

Who knows which time around

But one of the reasons is to unite me

with you

I'm sure of that baby, if a heart tells the truth



Is it the Winged Bull

Or the horns of Old Pan

There's Ra unto Isis

There's woman to man

Sun and the moon

Minus and plus

Zero equals two

In love and in us



Wings of fire and me in my time

Taking the form making this sound

It's all of the reasons that unite me with you

I'm sure of that baby

If a heart tells the truth

Heart tells the truth


JOAN BAEZ lyrics - Gracias A La Vida



(V. Parra, arr. by J. Baez)



[Here's To Life]



Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.

Me dio dos luceros, que cuando los abro,

Perfecto distingo lo negro del blanco

Y en el alto cielo su fondo estrellado

Y en las multitudes el hombre que yo amo.



Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.

Me ha dado el oido que en todo su ancho

Graba noche y dia, grillos y canarios,

Martillos, turbinas, ladridos, chubascos,

Y la voz tan tierna de mi bien amado.



Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.

Me ha dado el sonido y el abecedario;

Con el las palabras que pienso y declaro:

Madre, amigo, hermano, y luz alumbrando

La ruta del alma del que estoy amando.



Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.

Me ha dado la marcha de mis pies cansados;

Con ellos anduve ciudades y charcos,

Playas y desiertos, montanas y llanos,

Y la casa tuya, tu calle y tu patio.



Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.

Me dio el corazon que agita su marco

Cuando miro el fruto del cerebro humano,

Cuando miro al bueno tan lejos del malo,

Cuando miro al fondo de tus ojos claros.



Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.

Me ha dado la risa y me ha dado el llanto.

Asi yo distingo dicha de quebranto,

Los dos materiales que forman mi canto,

Y el canto de ustedes que es mi mismo canto,

Y el canto de todos que es mi propio canto.

Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.


DEPECHE MODE lyrics - Freestate



I can hear your soul crying

Listen to your spirit sighing

I can feel your desperation

Emotional deprivation



Let yourself go

Let yourself go

Let your feelings show



Picking up the conversation

Deep in your imagination

Tune into the lonely voices

Talking of their only choices



Let yourself go

Let yourself go

Let your spirit grow



Step out of your cage

And onto the stage

It's time to start

Playing your part

Freedom awaits

Open the gates

Open your mind

Freedom's a state



I can taste the tears falling

The bitterness inside you calling

Yearning for a liberation

Emotional emancipation



Let yourself go

Let yourself go

Let your senses overflow



Step out of your cage

And onto the stage

It's time to start

Playing your part

Freedom awaits

Open the gates

Open your mind

Freedom's a state

DEF LEPPARD lyrics - Rocks Off



Well, we were gettin' ready just the other night

When a knock on the dressing room door

Gave way to a leather jacket little girl

Who we'd never ever seen before

In her red satin dress and her high heeled shoes

She took us all by surprise

And when she asked us what we wanted to do

Well, she said it with her eyes

Just getcha rocks off



When we finally took the stage there she was

But she wasn't on her own

'Cause she'd brought some friends maybe 5 or 6

Yeah, she must have been on the phone

And when they started dancing and jumping around

Well we couldn't believe our eyes

'Cause they'd got the whole damn audience rockin'

And they'd got us paralyzed

Just getcha rocks off

DAVID BYRNE lyrics - A Walk In The Dark



I'm takin' all your little toys away

You don't have any say so in your future

The pretty colors and the shiny lights

Do we just chase whatever we desire?



Oh silent night

Oh holy night

Sometimes you see me

Sometimes you don't



You'll get to know me better

After a walk in the dark

The monster in the mirror

We'll take a walk in the dark

Woah - we'll take a walk in the dark

Woah - we'll take a walk in the dark



I'm not afraid to close my eyes at night

I'm not afraid of what my dreams will show me

I saw a fish that had a human head

I saw some things that I would like to show you:



The broken glass

The car's on fire

Open the cages

And set them free



Mine eyes have seen the glory

I took a walk in the dark

It ain't no bedtime story

We'll take a walk in the dark

Woah - we'll take a walk in the dark

Woah - we'll take a walk in the dark



Oooh -

Who will help ya now?

Surrender,

My love

Let it all come down

Burn baby burn



Now Jesus, Mary and the Holy Ghost

Took one look and they said, "Hey, we're lost!"

"How the hell do we get outa here?"

They shit their pants, they got so scared



So no matter who you are

Ya need a walk in the dark

The sweetest thing I ever saw

I took a walk in the dark

Woah - we'll take a walk in the dark

Woah - we'll take a walk in the dark


ROD STEWART lyrics - 'Till There Was You



There were bells on a hill

But I never heard them ringing

No, I never heard them at all

Till there was you



There were birds in the sky

But I never saw them winging

No, I never saw them at all

Till there was you



Then there was music and wonderful roses

They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows

Of dawn and dew



There was love all around

But I never heard it singing

No I never heard it at all

Till there was you



Then there was music and wonderful roses

They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows

Of dawn and dew



There was love all around

But I never heard it singing

No, I never heard it at all

Till there was you

Till there was you


SONNY AND CHER lyrics - Summertime



Summertime

And the livin' is easy

Fish are jumpin'

And the cotton is high

You're daddy's rich

And your mother's good-lookin'

So hush little baby, don't you cry



One of these mornings

You're gonna wake up singin'

You'll spread your wings

You're gonna take off and fly

But until that mornin'

Ain't nothin' in this world gonna hurt you

So hush little baby, hush little baby

Don't you cry no, no, no, no



You're daddy's rich

And your mother's good-lookin'

So hush little baby, don't you cry

Hush little baby, don't you cry

Hush little baby, don't you cry

Hush little baby, don't you cry

JOHN DENVER lyrics - Deck The Halls



(Traditional)



Deck the halls with boughs of holly, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

'Tis the season to be jolly, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Don we now our gay apparel, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Troll the ancient Yuletide carol, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.



See the blazing Yule before us, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Strike the harp and join the chorus, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Follow me in merry measure, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

While I tell of Yuletide treasure, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.



Fast away the old year passes, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Hail the new year, lads and lasses, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Sing we joyous, all together, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Heedless of the wind and weather, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

SKID ROW lyrics - Psycho Love



(Bolan)



Check out Clementine

Cleanin' needles in her wine

Face down in her one-eyed world

With her brain-dead valentine



She'll be your zombie, your livin' dead

Her sweet corruption

It's gonna make you, gonna break you

Ohh yeah, she said...



Haunt my house of pain

And feel my psycho love

We'll shine and pray for rain

To heal my psycho love



Legs at ten and two

Chain her down that's what you do

King Tut and snake-eyed slut

In the pink but screamin' blue



I'll taste your crazy, you smell insane

I'm just another ghost

Inside your spirits hall of fame



Haunt my house of pain

And feel my psycho love

We'll shine and pray for rain

To heal my psycho love



As the warm smooth soul

Chases through the cold silence

Of a body

A body of touch not feel

One question is she a stone in the

Devil's garden

Or a speck in an angels dust

Ashes to ashes

And lust to lust



She'll teach you true love

Watchin' you turn blue love

She'll wrap you in a chokehold

And suck your symptom dry

DAVID BOWIE lyrics - Shining Star (Makin' My Love)



Eddie boy lit like paraffin

spending two weeks

in a crack house

Burns on his brain

like Chernobyl



Dean was seen

with a two bag purchase

He was lying dead on his mother's bed

Someone for pray for-

till I met you



Life is like a broken arrow-

memory a swingin' door

I could be your great misfortune-

I can make you happy

every day of your life

Making my love

like a shining star

takin' my love just a touch too far



Tessie turns tricks with a soul like ice

cause love left holes

And four swell kids breaking her heart

I've got windows, I've seen much vice,

I've touched down with vermin,

Cowardice, lice,

And I say



Nobody cares what you do-

please be yourself to death



I could be your great misfortune

But you'll never find a, bet you'll never find a better man.



Making my love

like a shining star

Taking my love just a touch too far.



Peter met Frank

formed a dummy run gang

Worked heist or hit for 10 g's flat

Blew heads outta shape for the name of Trotsky, Sinn-

Fein, Hitler cashdown

No hope heroes cover the page

with debts in hell

And fingers in blood

Poor little bodies all covered in scabs

threw it all away

Another life in the grave

Another life in the grave



Life is like a broken arrow-

memory a swingin' door

I could be your great misfortune-

Well I could make you happy

every goddamn single day of your life



Making my love

like a shining star

Like a shining star

Baby that's what you are

Like a shining star



Making my love

like a shining star

Taking my love

Just a touch too far


RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - Sneaky Boy



(Richard Thompson)



Sneaky Boy, Sneaky Boy

Thought you were one of us

One of our gang

Sneaky Boy, Sneaky Boy

The mole in the tunnel

The canary who sang



While we sad chums

Just scratched our bums

Your heels were pacing

While we dropped blues

And took a snooze

Your mind was racing



Sneaky Boy, Sneaky Boy



Sneaky Boy, Sneaky Boy

Your teeth and your t-shirt

Were always too clean

Sneaky Boy, Sneaky Boy

They're writing your name

Down in the latrine, boy



And just who chose

Your rebel clothes

Was it your mummy?

We never knew

The side of you

Behind the dummy



Sneaky Boy, Sneaky Boy



Spleen of Mammon, spleen of Midas

Now you scold us, now you chide us

Mammon lung and Midas liver

Now you sell us down the river



You had your look

Right out the book

Of weekend poses

Now we bankrupt

And self-destruct

You smell of roses



Sneaky Boy, Sneaky Boy


THE MCAULEY SCHENKER GROUP lyrics - Destiny



(S. Mann/R. McAuley)



Better run Run away

No time, to be a hero

You wanna live to fight, another day

Don't look back, look straight ahead

One wrong move you'll be better off dead

They're out to get you boy,

you'd better run Run away

They'll soon be breathing down your neck

gonna kick you in the crutch

Hold on to life, better stay in touch

You hold the power in your hands

Control your destiny, make them understand

You are a part of future plans

Together you and me, we gotta make a stand

Politics Get in the way

Children starve and all they say

You wanna live your gonna have to pay

No way, we should stand for this

A false word and a broken promise

Don't let them fool you now,

retaliate It's not too late they'll try to complicate

don't crawl not at all

I'm waiting for your call

You hold the power in your hands

Control your destiny, make them understand

You are a part of future plans

Together you and me, we gotta make a stand

Can't seem to get enough

Can't seem to show no mercy

They'll run you down if you let 'em

Pick it up, kick it up

Never let 'em get your back up

Take it in your stride, and let it go

I will follow; to the end of time

One word, one reason, soon it could be mine

it's love I'm speaking of

Turns you inside, outside, upside down

You're confused-I feel like I've been used

You hold the power in your hands

Control your destiny, make them understand

You are a part of future plans

Together you and me, we gotta make a stand


THE BANGLES lyrics - Some Dreams Come True



I've seen the shadows fall

Colors that fade on my wall

Dressed up nowhere to go

It's all in my mind, I know.



But it's alright now

We're on our way.



Lay me down in the moonlight

So close to you (so close to you)

Maybe we're just dreamers

Some dreams come true.



Lips move but not a sound

When the words fall to the ground

Ooh, eyes watch but seldom see

The possibilities.



But it's alright now

We're on our way.



Lay me down in the moonlight

So close to you (so close to you)

Maybe we're just dreamers

Some dreams come true

When we're together

There's nothing we can't do (nothing we can't do)

Maybe we're just dreamers

Some dreams come true.



Moving in circles that we create

Seeing whatever we choose

Hear only voices that call your name.



And it's alright now

We're on our way.



Lay me down in the moonlight

So close to you (so close to you)

Maybe we're just dreamers

Some dreams come true

When we're together

There's nothing we can't do (nothing we can't do)

Maybe we're just dreamers

Some dreams come true.



Lay me down in the moonlight

So close to you (so close to you)

Maybe we're just dreamers

Some dreams come true

When we're together

There's nothing we can't do (nothing we can't do)

Maybe we're just dreamers

Some dreams come true.


BOBBY GOLDSBORO lyrics - Honey



(Bobby Russel)



See the tree, how big it's grown

But friend it hasn't been too long

It wasn't big

I laughed at her and she got mad

The first day that she planted it, was just a twig

Then the first snow came

And she ran out to brush the snow away

So it wouldn't die

Came runnin' in all excited

Slipped and almost hurt herself

And I laughed till I cried

She was always young at heart

Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so

And I surprised her with a puppy

Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago

And it would sure embarrass her

When I came in from workin' late

'Cause I would know

That she'd been sittin' there and cryin'

Over some sad and silly late, late show



And honey, I miss you

And I'm bein' good

And I'd love to be with you

If only I could



She wrecked the car and she was sad

And so afraid that I'd be mad

But what the heck

Though I pretended hard to be

Guess you could say she saw through me

And hugged my neck

I came home unexpectedly

And caught her cryin' needlessly

In the middle of the day

And it was in the early Spring

When flowers bloom and robins sing

She went away



And honey, I miss you

And I'm bein' good

And I'd love to be with you

If only I could



One day while I was not at home

While she was there and all alone

The angels came

Now all I have is memories of Honey

And I wake up nights and call her name

Now my life's an empty stage

Where Honey lived and Honey played

And love grew up

And a small cloud passes overhead

And cries down on the flower bed

That Honey loved



And see the tree how big it's grown

But friend it hasn't been too long

It wasn't big

And I laughed at her and she got mad

The first day that she planted it, was just a twig

STEVIE NICKS lyrics - Juliet



It was way too hard... it was way too tough...

On this she had not bargained

But she was like some missionary dancing to the beat of some

Man's ancient drum

And she tries hard to tell this story... but it's a hard one to tell

She consults her book of Miracles...

Cry... and the wind says fly on

Well now you're on your own

You're back out on the road again for a million reasons

Well you're back out on the road again

And you try to tie together some connections...

You get some ribbons and some bows and get back out on the road again



So you found a queen without a king

Oh yes, and everyone here loved her... no one was wrong

But you're a little bit like her

You're just a little bit like her

A little bit like her... a little bit like Juliet



Turn to the blue crystal mirror... well as always it is truthful

Oh, well you see it in the reflection of the real blue lamp

Well tie the connection... get some ribbons and some bows... get back

Out on the road

But when they were good... they were really good... really good stranger



So you found a queen without a king

Oh yes, and everyone here loved her... no one was wrong

You're a little bit like her

You're just a little bit like her

A little bit like her... a little bit like Juliet



Let the crisis become a bridge... and cross that bridge tomorrow

Well let the time that goes between, baby...

Well let it let go of the sorrow

She says "The sky is crying." He says "No, the sky is blue."

He says "The sky is not crying," he says "The sky is blue."

She says "The sky is crying." He says "The sky is blue."

Can you get into that?

"The sky is crying... " He says "No, the sky is blue... "


AMY GRANT lyrics - Abide With Me



Abide with me, fast falls the eventide

The darkness deepens, Lord, with me abide

When other helpers fail and comforts flee

Help of the helpless, O abide with me



I need Thy presence every passing hour

What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power

Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be

Through the cloud and sunshine, O abide with me



Abide, abide with me

Abide, abide with me

I fear no foe with Thee at hand to bless



I'll have no weight, and tears no bitterness

Where is death's sting?

Where, grave, thy victory?

I triumph still if Thou Abide with me



Abide, with me Abide, With me

Abide, abide with me

Abide, abide with me

THE KINKS lyrics - The Hard Way



Boys like you were born to waste,

You never listen to a word I say

And if you think you're here to mess around,

You're making a big mistake,

'Cos you're gonna find out the hard way,

You gonna find out the hard way.



No matter what I do or say,

You're much too dumb to educate.

One day life's going to turn around and slap you in the face,

Then you're gonna find out the hard way.

You'll take the hard way,

Gonna take the hard way.



Well, you'll do it your way and I'll do it my way,

And we'll see who's the one to survive.

You'll find that with no foundation

Or qualifications

There's no way that you can get by,

No, there's no way you can get by.



Why don't you take the easy way?

Why don't you co-operate?

Don't just sit there and vegetate.

Do you want to end up illiterate?

You think that life's a vacation

And you've no inclination

To dust away the cobwebs of your mind.

Now it's time for confrontation

And I'm tired of being patient,

So I've got to be cruel to be kind.

Yeah, I've got to be cruel to be kind.



I'm wasting my vocation teaching you to write neat

When you're only fit to sweep the streets.

Your intellect is such

That it requires a killer's touch.



So I'm going to play it your way,

We'll take the hard way.

Going to take the hard way,

You can take the hard way.

Gonna take the hard way,

Gonna take the hard way.


JOY DIVISION lyrics - I Remember Nothing



We were strangers.

We were strangers, for way too long, for way too long,

We were strangers, for way too long.

Violent, violent,

Were strangers.



Get weak all the time, may just pass the time,

Me in my own world, and you there beside,

The gaps are enormous, we stare from each side,

We were strangers for way too long.



Violent, more violent, his hand cracks the chair,

Moves on reaction, then slumps in despair,

Trapped in a cage and surrendered to soon,

Me in my own world, the one that you knew,

For way too long.

We were strangers for way too long.

We were strangers,

We were strangers for way too long,

For way too long.


DONNA SUMMER lyrics - Lady Of The Night



They call her the lady of the night

She's a woman of the world

And easy-living girl with love for sale



That's what they call her the lady of the night

No one seems to know her name

And even less about the place

From where she came



Every evening when the night is close at hand

You'll find the lady on the Rue d'Avignon

In a half lit hotel doorway the lady advertises warmly

It's just a job but she'll do the best she can



Don't try to change this lady of the night

She's a lot like you and me

And less than what she seems to be



(She is the lady of the night)

And easy-living girl

(she is the lady of the night)

She's a woman of the world

(she is the lady of the night)

With lots of loving for sale

(she is the lady of the night)

Lady lady of the night



Round here they call her the lady of the night

In a perfume hotel room

Shadows dance upon the wall and fade at dawn

She's no beginner this lady of the night

Never try that funny stuff

'cause lady can be tough

Be warned!



(She is the lady of the night)

She's a lot like you and me

(she is the lady of the night)

And never just what she seems

(she is the lady of the night)

No one seems to know her name

(she is the lady of the night)

Or the place from where she came

THE MANHATTANS lyrics - Kiss And Say Goodbye



[Spoken:]

This has got to be the saddest day of my life

I called you here today for a bit of bad news

I won't be able to see you anymore

Because of my obligations, and the ties that you have

We've been meeting here everyday

And since this is our last day together

I wanna hold you just one more time

When you turn and walk away, don't look back

I wanna remember you just like this

Let's just kiss and say goodbye



I had to meet you here today

There's just so many things to say

Please don't stop me 'til I'm through

This is something I hate to do

We've been meeting here so long

I guess what we done, oh was wrong

Please darlin', don't you cry

Let's just kiss and say goodbye



Many months have passed us by

(I'm gonna miss you)

I'm gonna miss you, I can't lie

(I'm gonna miss you)

I've got ties, and so do you

I just think this is the thing to do

It's gonna hurt me, I can't lie

Maybe you'll meet, you'll meet another guy

Understand me, won't you try, try, try, try, try, try, try

Let's just kiss and say goodbye (Goodbye)



(I'm gonna miss you)

I'm gonna miss you, I can't lie

(I'm gonna miss you)

Understand me, won't you try

(I'm gonna miss you)

It's gonna hurt me, I can't lie

(I'm gonna miss you)

Take my hankerchief, wipe your eyes

(I'm gonna miss you)

Maybe you'll find, you'll find another guy

(I'm gonna miss you)

Let's kiss and say goodbye, pretty baby

(I'm gonna miss you)

Please, don't you cry

(I'm gonna miss you)

Understand me, won't you try

(I'm gonna miss you)

Let's just kiss

And say goodbye


HOWLIN' WOLF lyrics - Little Baby



(Willie Dixon)



You'll go and I'll come with you little baby

You'll go and I'll come with you little baby

You'll go and I'll come with you

You'll bet your life that I won't quit you

You'll go and I'll come with you little baby



You'll go to court

And I'll come along

You'll go to jail

And I'll throw your bond

You got time

Tell you what I'll do

I'll stay outside and wait for you



You'll go and I'll come with you little baby

You'll go and I'll come with you little baby

You'll go and I'll come with you

You'll bet your life that I won't quit you

You'll go and I'll come with you little baby



You'll go to church

And I'll go there too

You'll go to work

I'll tell you what I do

You'll get paid

I'll hold the money

I'll be right there to protect you honey



You'll go and I'll come with you little baby

You'll go and I'll come with you little baby

You'll go and I'll come with you

You'll bet your life that I won't quit you

You'll go and I'll come with you little baby



You'll get the fair

And I'll go to show

You'll bet the horses

And I'll pick up the dough

You work hard

Hurt my pride

I'll be right there by your side



You'll go and I'll come with you little baby

You'll go and I'll come with you little baby

You'll go and I'll come with you

You'll bet your life that I won't quit you

You'll go and I'll come with you little baby



Ooh, little baby

Ooh, little baby

Ooh, little baby


BOB SEGER & THE SILVER BULLET BAND lyrics - Revisionism Street



I saw them standing on a corner

Bathed in ordinary light

They turned away and started walkin'

And faded off into the night

Some years ago they were in fashion

Tonight they couldn't get a seat

They've got themselves a brand new history

From Revisionism Street

Written on Revisionism Street



The years of sacrifice and struggle

The arc of stardom's natural course

The inevitable decline

The wolves waiting at the door

"Let's dig up something really nasty"

"Let's get some clay around their feet"

"No ones memory is sacred 'round here

On Revisionism Street"



"We'll never be in the arena"

"Hey, we'll never have to compete"

"We'll never write a classic novel"

"And we'll never have to be discreet!"



Alfred Hitchcock, Isaac Newton

Elvis Presley, Captain Bligh

They're heroic or pathetic

Depending on which book you buy

Charles Dickens, Jackie Gleason

Burn 'em all, turn up the heat

If there's no truth, use innuendo

this is Revisionism Street



"Let's find ourselves some old acquaintance"

"Let's see what they have to say"

"Some disgruntled ex-employee"

"Presto! Payday!"



A tree falls in the forest

A million copies go to print

Some parasitic little feeder

Sits back and makes a mint

Somewhere a baby's softly sleeping

lt's innocence complete

Unaware they're workin' late tonight

On Revisionism Street


LOS LOBOS lyrics - One Time, One Night



(David Hidalgo/Louie Perez)



A wise man was telling stories to me

About the places he had been to

And the things that he had seen



A quiet voice is singing something to me

An age old song about the home of the brave

In this land here of the free

One time one night in America



A lady dressed in white with the man she loved

Standing along the side of their pickup truck

A shot rang out in the night

Just when everything seemed right

Another headline written down in America



The guy that lived next door in #305

Took the kids to the park and disappeared

About half past nine

Who will ever know

How much she loved them so

That dark night alone in America



A quiet voice is singing something to me

An age old song about the home of the brave

In this land here of the free

One time one night in America



Four small boys playing ball in a parking lot

A preacher, a teacher, and the other became a cop

A car skidded into the rain

Making the last little one a saint

One more light goes out in America



A young girl tosses a coin in the wishing well

She hopes for a heaven while for her

There's just this hell

She gave away her life

To become somebody's wife

Another wish unanswered in America



People having so much faith

Die too soon while all the rest come late

We write a song that no one sings

On a cold black stone

Where a lasting peace will finally bring



The sunlight plays upon my windowpane

I wake up to a world that's still the same

My father said to be strong

And that a good man could never do wrong

In a dream I had last night in America



A wise man was telling storie to me

About the places he had been to

And the things that he had seen



A quiet voice is singing something to me

An age old song about the home of the brave

In this land here of the free

One time one night in America


NEIL YOUNG lyrics - Cripple Creek Ferry



Hey, hey

Cripple Creek ferry

Butting through

the overhanging trees

Make way

for the Cripple Creek ferry

The waters going down

it's a mighty tight squeeze.



All alone the captain stands

Hasn't heard

from his deck hands.

The gambler tips his hat

and walks towards the door.

It's the second half

of the cruise.

And you know he hates to lose.



Hey, hey Cripple Creek ferry

Butting through

the overhanging trees

Make way

for the Cripple Creek ferry

The waters going down

it's a mighty tight squeeze.


BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST lyrics - Delph Town Morn



Sitting here, me and Chris's son

We've got a story to strike you down

About a girl with the light in her eyes

Black on the night, drive on the day

Let the wheels run dry

Sitting here, waiting for the sun

Little darling, for you to come

By the light of the moon flashing by

Black on the night, drive on the day

Let the wheels run dry



Fly on by silver bird in the sky

Fly on day, black on night, roll on by

Bring on the sunshine shine in her eyes

Fly on by silver bird



Sitting here in the early grey

Of a Delph town morning, we sit and pray

For a sight of the light in her eyes

Black on the night, drive on the day

Let the wheels run dry



Fly on by silver bird in the sky

Fly on day, black on night, roll on by

Bring on the sunshine shine in her eyes

Fly on by silver bird


JACKIE JACKSON lyrics - Fine Fine Lady



(R Brookins/Jackie Jackson/M Dailsy/M Brookins)



I'm that simply kind of fellow

This love will never do wrong

When it comes down to loving

To show you where you've got to be strong



And I know

Been through many changes

Trying to keep your love alive

Through all the pain and heartache

I'm not the guy you look behind

Baby, hi



Cause you're a fine fine lady

It's me that's gonna love you forever

Cause you're a fine fine lady

The only love is us together

Together



Don't know

The pain that you're feeling

Couldn't really understand

I'm here to let you know girl

I'll always be here as a friend



Don't you see girl

I'm not trying to change you

It's coming straight from the heart

We shall love again

I need you girl right here in my arms



Cause you're a fine fine lady

It's me that's gonna love you forever

Cause you're a fine fine lady

The only love is us together

Together



Cause you're a fine fine lady

It's me that's gonna love you forever

Cause you're a fine fine lady

The only love is us together

Together



I just can't stop this feeling

It's down deep in my heart

You're the one I adore baby

And I'll never let it fall apart



You know I love you

Let's do this any time

Let's do it right

I'm here all along you see

I just wanna love you

For the rest of my life



So please baby let me love you



Cause you're a fine fine lady

It's me that's gonna love you forever

Cause you're a fine fine lady

The only love is us together

Together



[Ad lib/fade]


THE CHURCH lyrics - Easy



Any day now you'll see me coming rambling down your street at night

In the broad moonlight

Underneath the blooming trees a seasons greeting's beating up the shore

So open up your door



Easy baby

You don't have to say a word

Easy now

You don't have to do a thing



You'll protect me with your arts and it all starts again surrounding me

Inevitably

Hiding in your haven, maybe stark and maybe raving, completely sane

It's just so plain arcane



Easy baby

You don't have to act so hard

Easy now

You don't have to be like that



Any day now you'll hear me ringing, hear me singing down the line

Or just in your mind

You'll embrace me, turn to face me, try to replace me, it will be too late

Now that's all I'll say



Easy baby

It's so hard to walk away

Easy now

You don't have to end like this

GRATEFUL DEAD lyrics - If I Had The World To Give



If I had the world to give, I'd give it to you

Long as you live, would you let it fall, or hold it all in your arms?



If I had a song to sing, I'd sing it to you

as long as you live, lullaby or maybe a plain serenade

wouldn't you laugh, dance, and cry or be afraid at the change you made



I may not have the world to give to you

But maybe I have a tune or two

Only if you let me be your world

Could I ever give this world to you



But I will give what love I have to give,

I will give what love I have to give,

I will give what love I have to give, long as I live.



If I had a star to give, I'd give it to you

long as you live, would you have the time

to watch it shine, watch it shine

or ask for the moon and heaven too? I'd give it to you.



Well maybe I've got no star to spare, or anything fine or even rare,

only if you let me be your world, could I ever give this world to you.

could I ever give this world to you.


THE MONKEES lyrics - Love Is Only Sleeping



She looked at me

And the emptiness in her eyes was cruel to see

Then she turned away and said,

"Once I loved, but love is dead"

And I whispered, "Sometimes love is only sleeping"



She said, "I cannot cry

And I cannot give or feel or even try"

And her voice was hard and cold

Then her sweet young face looked old

And I whispered, "Sometimes love is only sleeping"



Through the endless days and nights

Could not help but wrap herself in sorrow (sorrow)

Through the endless days and nights

She waited for a shiny new tomorrow

Love was sleeping, sleeping



She looked at me

And her smiling tears were warm and sweet and free

And the moonlight kissed her eyes

As it mingled with our sighs

And she whispered, "Sometimes love is only sleeping"

And she whispered, "Sometimes love is only sleeping"

Only sleeping...

YES lyrics - Agree To Agree



(Anderson/Squire)



Don't imagine any way, so any fool can take away the drugs and the

pressure

Asking for the level where a world devides its answers

To the gang lords of evil life, they can't show you how

Look upon this life as just a picture you are painting

There is a reason for this being

Look upon this place as just a part of all that is

It is a spiritual part of being



Live within the power, you can be the strength it is

Walk among the living, you can be the strength it is

To give, to live, this hope, comes through,

It takes the trust to agree this agreement

Live for the breaking free

Live for the breaking freedom

Just let it come through come through


CHER lyrics - For What It's Worth



There's something happening here

What it is ain't exactly clear

There's a man with a gun over there

Telling me I got to beware

I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound

Everybody look what's going down

There's battle lines being drawn

Nobody's right if everybody's wrong

Young people speaking their minds

Getting so much resistance from behind

I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound

Everybody look what's going down

What a field-day for the heat

A thousand people in the street

Singing songs and carrying signs

Mostly say, hooray for our side

It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound

Everybody look what's going down

Paranoia strikes deep

Into your life it will creep

It starts when you're always afraid

You step out of line, the man come and take you away

We better stop, hey, what's that sound

Everybody look what's going down

Stop, hey, what's that sound

Everybody look what's going down

Stop, now, what's that sound

Everybody look what's going down

Stop, children, what's that sound

Everybody look what's going down


PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - Write Away



You need love, write a letter, you need love write away

Get it down, you'll feel better, send it now, write away



Hey Cinderella, did you need that other fella?

On the wrong side of midnight your defences slipped away

You need attention, so I think it's worth a mention

That if I can deliver

Well there wouldn't be no heavy price to pay



You need love, write a letter, you need love write away

Get it down, you'll feel better, send it now, write away



You need love, write a letter

You need love write away

If you need to feel better, do it now, now, now write away


THE BEATLES lyrics - My Bonnie



(Traditional, arranged by Tony Sheridan)



My Bonnie lies over the ocean

My Bonnie lies over the sea

My Bonnie lies over the ocean

Oh bring back my Bonnie to me



My Bonnie lies over the ocean

My Bonnie lies over the sea

Well my Bonnie lies over the ocean

Yeah bring back my Bonnie to me



Yeah bring back, ah bring back

Oh bring back my Bonnie to me to me

Oh bring back, oh bring back

Oh bring back my Bonnie to me



Well my Bonnie lies over the ocean

My Bonnie lies over the sea

Yeah my Bonnie lies over the ocean

Oh I said bring back my Bonnie to me



Yeah bring back, ah bring back

Oh bring back my Bonnie to me to me

Oh bring back, ah bring back

Oh bring back my Bonnie to me

ELLA FITZGERALD lyrics - I Could Write A Book



A B C D E F G

I never learned to spell,

At least not well.



1 2 3 4 5 6 7

I never learned to count,

A great amount.



But my busy mind is burning to use what learning I've got,

I won't waste any time,

I'll strike while the iron is hot.



If they asked me, I could write a book

About the way you walk, and whisper, and look.

I could write a preface

On how we met

So the world would never forget.



And the simple secret of the plot

Is just to tell them that I love you a lot.

And the world discovers

As my book ends,

How to make two lovers

Of friends.



[Instrumental]



And the simple secret of the plot

Is just to tell them that I love you a lot.

And the world discovers

As my book ends,

How to make two lovers

Of friends.


VAN MORRISON lyrics - So Complicated



So complicated, so complicated

Just wanna blow my horn

So complicated, so complicated

Just wanna know the score



Are you telling me that everything's fine

When I can't even tie my shoes

Better get into a new frame of mind

When I don't have to think about the business no more

`Cause I just wanna blow my horn



The telephone is ringing out

But it don't understand my blues

And how much longer will it take

Until they get the news



The weather man said it was good

He forecast it was truly great

So if you change your train of thought

You know it won't be late



Too complicated, too complicated

You know this crazy scene

Too complicated, too complicated

No one says what they mean



Are you telling me that everything's fine

When I can't even tie my shoes

Better get into a new frame of mind

When I don't have to think about the business no more

`Cause I just wanna blow my horn.

ANTHRAX lyrics - I'm Eighteen



[Originally by Alice Cooper]



Lines form on my face and hands

Lines form from the ups and downs

I'm in the middle without any plans

I'm a boy and I'm a man



I'm eighteen and I don't know what I want

Eighteen, I just don't know what I want

Eighteen, I got to get away

I got to get out of this place



I'll go runnin' in outer space!



I've got a baby's brain and an old man's heart

Took eighteen years to get this far

Don't always know what I'm talking about

Feels like I'm living in the middle of doubt



'Cause I'm eighteen, I get confused ev'ry day

Eighteen, I just don't know what to say

Eighteen, I've got to get away



Lines form on my face and my hands

Lines form from the left and right

I'm in the middle, the middle of life

I'm a boy and I'm a man



I'm eighteen and I like it

SEALS & CROFTS lyrics - Windflowers



Windflowers, my father told me not to go near them, he feared them always,

Said they carried him away.

Windflowers, I couldn't wait to touch them, to smell them, I held them closely.

Now I cannot break away.



Their sweet bouquet disappears like a vapor in the desert. Take a warning, son.



Windflowers, their beauty captures every young dreamer who lingers near them.

Ancient windflowers, I love you.


MICHAEL JACKSON lyrics - Too Young



(S. Lippman / S. Dee)



They try to tell us we're too young

Too young to reaaly be in love



They say that love's a word

A word we've only heard

But can't begin to know the meaning of



And yet we're not too young to know

This love will last though years may go



And then someday they may recall

We were not to young at fall


THREE DOG NIGHT lyrics - Your Song



(E. John & B. Taupin)



It's a little bit funny this feeling inside

I'm not one of those who can easily hide

I don't have much money but boy if I did

I'd buy a big house where we both could live



If I was a sculptor, but then again, no

Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show

I know it's not much but it's the best I can do

My gift is my song and this one's for you



And you can tell everybody this is your song

It may be quite simple but now that it's done

I hope you don't mind

I hope you don't mind that I put down in words

How wonderful life is while you're in the world



I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss

Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross

But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song

It's for people like you that keep it turned on



So excuse me forgetting but these things I do

You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue

Anyway the thing is what I really mean

Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

RICK SPRINGFIELD lyrics - Hooky Jo



(Springfield)



Hooky high hooky Jo

I need you so

Hooky bye hooky go

Where I don't know

Looky high looky low

Where can you be

Hooky high hooky Jo

I need your company



And my sergeant said

The war is over son

It doesn't really matter

That the north has won.



So I packed my bags

And I gave back my gun

I turned and headed home

With the fighting done



Hooky high hooky Jo

I need you so

Hooky by hooky go

Where I don't know

Looky high looky low

Where can you be

Hooky high hooky Jo

I need your company



Hooky Jo and me

We planned to make a start

But the war came between us

And we fell apart



Now this old gray coat is getting mighty thin

But I'll keep on looking for her

Till we meet again



Hooky high hooky Jo

I need you so

Hooky by hooky go

Where I don't know

Looky high looky low

Where can you be

Hooky high hooky Jo

I need your company


LORETTA LYNN lyrics - Another Man Loved Me Last Night



(Peggy Sue Wells - A. Allen)



He doesn't know that I can't look him in the eyes

For that I can't speak or I'll start tellin' lies

I hope he thinks that I'm just moody and quiet but another man loved me last night

Yes another man loved me last night I'd almost forgotten what love was really like

But I'm only human only a woman I let another man love me last night

[ steel ]

While he's sleepin' well I'm crying here awake

Not being loved was more than I could take

So it was wrong there in his arms it seemed so right

When another man loved me last night

Yes another man loved me...

LENNY WOLF lyrics - Macht Licht In Eurem Dunklen Haus



Der Wecker klingelt wieder mal

Ein neuer Tag beginnt

Kein Lust jetzt aufzustehn

Der Arger kommt bestimmt



HektiK, Stress und Aggressionen

Kommen auf mich zu

Frage mich wofur das alles

Weshalb ich es tu

Frage mich wofur



[Chorus:]

Kommt doch endlich aus euch raus

Macht licht in eurem dunklen Haus



Leere Augen kalte Blicke

Kreuzen meinen Weg

Vielen is es ganz egal

Wie's den andern geht

Mein Glaube an die Menschlicheit

Schwindet immer mehr

Kalte, Frust und Einsamkeit

Macht es mir so schwer


WARREN ZEVON lyrics - Sacrificial Lambs



(Warren Zevon and Larry Klein)



We're having a party

We're burning it down

We're building an idol

He's sad but he don't frown

He's the cream of the crop

So we're making him god

Start writing this down

When I give you the nod



Them Coptic monks

Knew how to keep it real

That Rosicrucian thing

That Zoroastrian deal

Well, they might be wrong

They don't give a damn

Long as they don't run out

Of sacrificial lambs



Eat my dust

And I'll clean your clock

Eat my dust

And we'll reel and rock

Eat my dust

And I'll be your man

You can be my

Sacrificial lamb



Madame Blavansky

And her friends

Changed lead into gold

And back again

Krishnamurti said,

"I'll set you free

Write a check

and make it out to me"



Take a look

At my family tree

Every brother and sister

Wants something for free

You get what pay for

From me, my friend

Nothing for nothing

Forever, amen



Eat my dust

You can touch my stole

Eat my dust

And we'll rock and roll

Eat my dust

And I'll be your man

You can be my

Sacrificial lamb



Smokey and the Bandit

And Saddam Hussein

Were staying up late

And acting insane

Along with Russell Crowe

And Hafez Assad

Start taking this down

When I give you the nod



The boys are all ready

They've laid out the plans

They're setting the stage

For the man-made man

We've worked out the kinks

In your DNA

So sayonara, kid

Have a nice day



Eat my dust

And I'll clean your clock

Eat my dust

And we'll reel and rock

Eat my dust

And I'll be your man

You can be my

Sacrificial lamb


GREEN DAY lyrics - Working Class Hero



[Originally by John Lennon]



As soon as your born they make you feel small

By giving you no time instead of it all

Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all

Working Class Hero is something to be

Working Class Hero is something to be



They hurt you at home and they hit you at school

They hate you if you're clever and despise a fool

Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules

Working Class Hero is something to be

Working Class Hero is something to be



When they've tortured and scared you for 20 odd years

Then they expect you to pick a career

When you can't really function you're so full of fear

Working Class Hero is something to be

Working Class Hero is something to be



Keep you doped with religon, sex and T. V.

And you think you're so clever and classless and free

But you're still fucking peasents as far as I can see

Working Class Hero is something to be

Working Class Hero is something to be



There's room at the top I'm telling you still

But first you must learn how to smile as you kill

If you want to be like the folks on the hill

Working Class Hero is something to be



Yes, A Working Class Hero is something to be

If you want to be a hero well just follow me

If you want to be a hero well just follow me


LENNY KRAVITZ lyrics - Calling All Angels



Calling all angels

I need you near to the ground

I miss you dearly

Can you hear me on your cloud?



All of my life

I've been waiting for someone to love

All of my life

I've been waiting for something to love



Calling all angels

I need you near to the ground

I have been kneeling

And praying to hear a sound



All of my life

I've been waiting for someone to love

All of my life

I've been waiting for something to love



All of my life

I've been waiting for someone to love

All of my life

I've been waiting for something to love



Day by day

Through the years

Make my way



Day by day

Through the years

Day by day

Through the years



Day by day

Through the years

Day by day

Make my way



Day by day

Through the years

Day by day

Day by day

DEE CLARK lyrics - Raindrops



(Dee Clark)



The raindrops, so many raindrops

It feels like rai-aindrops

Falling from my eye-eyes

Falling from my eyes



Since my love has left me

I'm so all alone

I would bring her back to me

But I don't know where she's go-o-o-ne

I don't know where she's gone



There must be a cloud in my hea-ea-ea-ead

Rain keeps falling from my eye-eyes

Oh no they can't be teardrops

For a man ain't supposed to cry



So it must be rai-aindrops, so many raindrops

It feels like raindrops

Falling from my eye-eyes

Falling from my eyes



Oh, there must be a cloud in my hea-ea-ea-ead

Rain keeps falling from my eye-eyes

Oh no they can't be teardrops

For a man ain't supposed to cry



So it must be rai-aindrops, so many raindrops

It feels like raindrops

Falling from my eye-eyes

Falling from my eyes



It keeps on fallin'



Fallin' from my eyes



[Fade]



It keeps on fallin' from my eyes


MOTORHEAD lyrics - Stay Clean



I can tell, seen before,

I know the way, I know the law,

Can't believe, can't obey,

Can't agree with all the things I hear you say,

Oh no, don't ask me why,

I can't go on with all these filthy white lies, Stay Clean



Don't you know, all the time,

You got yours and you know that I've got mine,

Grab a hold, don't let go,

Don't let them rob you of the only thing you know,

Oh no, no-one else,

Got the right to make you sorry for yourself, Stay Clean



So you see, the only proof,

Of what you are is in the way you see the truth,

Don't be scared, live to win,

Although they're always gonna tell you it's a sin,

In the end, you're on your own,

And there is no-one that can stop you being alone, Stay Clean.

JIMMY BUFFETT lyrics - Back To The Island



Now the day is done

And I sit alone and think of you girl

What would I do without you in my life



Wonderin' if you love me or

just playing a fool of me.

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island



And watch the sun go down

Listen to the sea roll in

I'll be thinkin' of you

And how it might've been

Listen to the nightbird cry

Watch the sun set die

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island



Threaded in my heart

Tears are falling down

I know down in my soul

I'm really gonna miss you



Caan't end this way

For all the games we've played.

So I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island



And watch the sun go down

Listen to the sea roll in

I'll be thinkin' of you

And how it might've been

Listen to the nightbird cry

Watch the sun set die

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island



And watch the sun go down

Listen to the sea roll in

I'll be thinkin' of you

And how it might've been

Listen to the nightbird cry

Watch the sun set die

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island



I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island


JOHNNY CASH lyrics - Spiritual



Jesus

I don't wanna die alone

Jesus oh Jesus

I don't wanna die alone



My love wasn't true

Now all I have is you



Jesus oh Jesus

I don't wanna die alone



Jesus

If you hear my last breath

Don't leave me here

Left to die a lonely death

I know I have sinned but Lord I'm

suffering



Jesus Oh Jesus

If you hear my last breath



Jesus

I don't wanna die alone

Jesus oh Jesus

I don't wanna die alone



My love wasn't true

Now all I have is you



Jesus Oh Jesus

I don't wanna die alone



Jesus

Jesus

All my troubles

All My pain

Will leave me

Once again



All my troubles

All my pain

Will leave me once again



All my troubles

All my pain

Will leave me once again Once again


ANTHRAX lyrics - Black Lodge



Worship the ground you barely walk on

You give of yourself but your angels are gone

Deny your body is screaming

But your heart and your soul they're bleeding

Just to fall asleep is a godsend

Until your demons appear again



I am a witness to your demise



Your biggest secret is one you can't keep

Lift up your head if you're only asleep

You try to hold onto reason

Why can't you see that you're leaving

My love for you knows no distance

But it can't fight your resistance



I am a witness to your demise

I am the one who saw through the lies



Give me,

The one thing you can't give

Take me to

The black lodge where you live



Deny your body is screaming

But your heart and your soul they're bleeding

Just to fall alseep is a godsend

Until your demons appear again



I am a witness to your demise

I am the one who saw through the lies

My love has always been blind

BEE GEES lyrics - Give Me A Smile



Ah.......

It's not the way you say to me, I'll wave goodbye

It's not the search to try to say the tears you'll cry

Because I am crying too for the thought of leaving you



You have to give me a smile as leave you treasure

Do it in style and believe in yourself

'Cause while I'm away I will stay firm beside you

And then I will go with the thought that you tried not to break



You mean heaven to me and when I return to thee

we'll see our own love

You may not know but I do miss you earnestly



Of all the moments in our time, there's none like this

And ev'ry day when our lips met, there's none so bliss

For when I say sweet c'est la vie,

I laugh and leave with tears on me



You better give me a smile as I leave you Heather,

Treasure yourself and find time for no else

For while I'm away I will stay firm beside you

And then I will leave with the thought that you tried not to cry



Ah.....


THE CLASH lyrics - Police On My Back



(Eddy Grant)



Well I'm running police on my back

I've been hiding police on my back

There was a shooting police on my back

And the victim well he wont come back



What have I done?



I been running monday tuesday wednesday

Thursday friday saturday sunday runnin

monday tuesday wednesday thursday friday

Saturday sunday



Yes, I'm running down the railway track

Could you help me? Police on my back

They will catch me if I dare drop back

Wont you give me all the speed I lack


DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Old Flames (Can't Hold A Candle To You)



(Pebe Sebert/Hugh Moffatt)



Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend, someone who

I use to take comfort from long before I met you

I caught a spark from his eyes of forgotten desire

With a word, or a touch, I could have rekindled that fire

Old flames can't hold a candle to you

No one can light up the night like you do

Flickering embers of love

I've known one or two

But old flames can't hold a candle to you



Sometimes at night, I think of old lovers I've known

I remember how holding them helped me not feel so alone

Then I feel you beside me and even their memories are gone

Like stars in the night lost in the sweet light of dawn



Old flames can't hold a candle to you

No one can light up the night like you do

Flickering embers of love

I've known one or two

But old flames can't hold a candle to you

Old flames can't hold a candle to you

Mmmm...

LINDA RONSTADT lyrics - I'm Leavin' It All Up To You



(D. Terry Jr. & G. Harris)



I'm leaving it all up, up to you

You decide what you're gonna do

Now do you want my love

Or are we through



That's why I'm leaving it up to you

You decide what you're gonna do

Now do you want my love

Or are we through



Here's my heart in my hand

And I, I don't understand

What did I, what have I done wrong

You know I worship the ground you walk on



That's why I'm leaving it up to you

You decide what you're gonna do

Now do you want my love

Or are we through


OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN lyrics - Fine Line



(B. Gibb/G. Bitzer)



Now I like the way you move

Anyway that you make it work

And you offer something new

And the doorway is open for me

Now a man needs a woman

And I know that for me is true

And life, we got too much reality

There's gotta be other things to do



Me electrify you

Simply mystify you

Very strange but nice

Now somebody wrong

And somebody right

And somebody else

It's either one thing or the other



It's a fine line between talking and giving

It's a fine line between dancing and making love

It's a fine line



I can see the possibility

Anyway that you wanna be

We all got secret emotions

Anytime after the midnight hour

Now love, don't get short on the action

Anyway, you got the energy

My heart is a part of the plans you made

You're the star of my sexual fantasy



Me electrify you

Simply mystify you

Hope you stay all night

I'll have you for dinner or breakfast in bed

Either way I get you

For the worse or for the better



It's wild, it's weird, it's what we think about

This ain't no strip club, shame on you, 'cos

You know somebody that

Got a bead on what you need

Don't sacrifice your love

You analyze, don't minimize

What only you can rise above now

I know that, don't you think

I know you're watching me

You got no claim to make

Well, that's no excuse

And I know the truth

You got brain-drain

Long as there's a game to play

Sad but there's only one fool to blame



You don't think my love should tie you down

I say love can turn your groove around

Watch me please you

Watch me play your game

Someday love will make your water flow


THREE DOG NIGHT lyrics - Eli's Coming



(L. Nyro)



Eli's comin'

No, you'll never get away from the burnin' a-heartache

I walked to Apollo by the bay

Everywhere I go though, Eli's a-comin' (she walked but she never got away)

Eli's a-comin' (she walked but she never got away)

Eli's a-comin' and he's comin' to git ya (she walked but... she walked

Everywhere I go though, Eli's a-comin' (she walked but she'll never get

Eli's a-comin' and he's comin' to git ya (she walked but... she walked

Get down on your knees (she walked but she'll never get away)

Get down on your knees



No-no, no-no

THE EAGLES lyrics - Bitter Creek



Once I was young and so unsure

I'd try any ill to find the cure

An old man told me

Tryin' to scold me

"Oh, son, don't wade to deep in Bitter Creek,"

(Bitter Creek)

Out where the desert meets the sky

Is where I go when I wanna hide



Oh, peyote (oh, peyote, mm)

She tried to show me

(tried to show me)

You know there ain't no cause to weep

at Bitter Creek

(Bitter Creek)

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo doo



We're gonna hit the road for one last time

We can walk right in and steal 'em blind

All that money (All that money, ooh..)

No more runnin' (No more runnin')

I can't wait to see the old man's face

When I win the race

(Bitter Creek)

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo,

Doo doo doo doo doo

Doo.........

Come on, yeah



You are my knight in armor

The hero of my heart

When you smile at me I see

A true world go up

The river is getting deep, believe it

You're all these arms of mine wanna hold

All wrapped up with a river

Baby, I'm giving you this heart of gold



So listen up, it's you I trust

I feel magic every time that we touch

I pledge allegiance to the heavens above

Tonight to you baby I make my declaration of love

(Hey of love)



Just like Juliette belonged to Romeo

You can stay prepared that I won't be letting you go

In the heat of the night

So right you taste my sweetness on your lips

I'll make it better than you ever dreamed

And the rest of your life will be just like this

Tonight to you baby I make my declaration of love

I swear to you baby



So listen up, it's you I trust

(Ooh) I pledge allegiance to the heavens above

There's peace in my mind

And I'm hoping that you'll find it too

And these feelings in my heart

I know are meant for you



Meant for you

JOAN BAEZ lyrics - The Cherry Tree Carol



(Traditional)



When Joseph was an old man, an old man was he

He married Virgin Mary, the Queen of Galilee

He married Virgin Mary, the Queen of Galilee



Joseph and Mary walked through an orchard green

There were cherries and berries, as thick as might be seen

There were cherries and berries, as thick as might be seen



Mary said to Joseph, so meek and so mild:

Joseph, gather me some cherries, for I am with child

Joseph, gather me some cherries, for I am with child



Then Joseph flew in anger, in anger flew he

Let the father of the baby gather cherries for thee!

Let the father of the baby gather cherries for thee!



Then up spoke baby Jesus, from in Mary's womb:

Bend down the tallest branches, that my mother might have some

Bend down the tallest branches, that my mother might have some



And bend down the tallest branches, it touched Mary's hand

Cried she: Oh look thou Joseph, I have cherries by command

Oh look thou Joseph, I have cherries by command


ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - Got You On My Mind



(Joe Thomas and Howard Biggs)



I've got you on my mind, I'm feeling kind of sad and low.

Got you on my mind, feeling kind of sad and low.

I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go.



[Chorus:]

Tears begin to fall every time I hear your name.

Tears begin to fall every time I hear your name.

But since you went away, nothing seems to be the same.



No matter how I try,

My heart just don't see why

I can't forget you.

If ever it should be

You want to come back to me,

You know I'd let you.



[Repeat First Verse]



[Chorus]



[Repeat First Verse]



I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go.

I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go.


MODERN TALKING lyrics - You're My Heart, You're My Soul



Deep in my heart, there's a fire a burning heart

Deep in my heart, there's desire for a start

I'm dying in emotion

It's my world in fantasy

I'm living in my, living in my dreams



You're my heart, you're my soul

I keep it shining everywhere I go

You're my heart, you're my soul

I'll be holding you forever, stay with you together



You're my heart, you're my soul

Yeah, a feeling that our love will grow

You're my heart, you're my soul

That's the only thing I really know



Let's close the door and believe my burning heart

Feeling all right, come on, open up your heart

I'll keep the candles burning

Let your body melt in mine

I'm living in my, living in my dreams

Gonna give you all of me

Make love to you right now

That's all I want to do



I know you need it, girl, and you know

I need it, too

'Cause I found what the world is searching for

Here, right here, my dear

I don't have to look no more

And, oh, my babe

I hoped and I prayed for someone

Just like you to make me feel the way you do



Never, never gonna give you up

I'm never, ever gonna stop

Not the way I feel about you

Girl, I just can't live without you



I'm never ever gonna quit,

'Cause quitin' just ain't my schtick

I'm gonna stay right here with you

Do all the things you want me to



Whatever you want, girl, you got it

And whatever you need

I don't want to see you without it



You've given me much more than words could ever say

And oh, my dear, I'll be right here until my dying day

I don't know just how to say all the things I feel

I just know that I love you so and it gives me such a thrill



'Cause I found what this world is searching for

Here, right here, my dear

I don't have to look no more

And all of my days I hoped and I prayed

For someone just like you

To make me feel the way you do



I never, never gonna give you up

I'm never, ever gonna stop

Stop the way I feel about you

Girl I just can't live without you



I'm never ever gonna quit

'Cause quitin' just ain't my schtick

I'm gonna stay right here with you

Do all the things you want me to



Oh I never gonna give you up

I'm never, ever gonna stop

All the things I feel about you girl

I just can't live without you



I'm never ever gonna quit

'Cause quitin' just ain't my schtick

I'm gonna stay right here with you

Do all the things you want me to


JACKSON 5 / THE JACKSONS lyrics - Strength Of One Man



There's a system we all must follow

If we wanna get ahead

Some men are strong enough to make it

And others are just too afraid

But mama told me a story

And it keeps, keeps me alive

Said some are weak, the weak fall by the wayside

And all the strong the strong survive

Now you tell me...



How strong is the strength of a man

Can he stay on his road, and carry his load

Can he carry his load

Can he carry his load

Can he carry his load

Can he carry his load



We have picked people, and say they're on our side

And after they did everything they want (y'all)

They start to tell us lie, just lie after lie



But we can't blame our problems

On just that chose few

Caues if we wann solve then

It's up to me and up to you

Now you tell me...



How strong is the strength of a man

Can he stay on his road, and carry his load

Can he carry his load

Can he carry his load

Can he carry his load

Can he carry his load



Is he strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough

JOY DIVISION lyrics - Dead Souls



Someone take these dreams away,

That point me to another day,

A duel of personalities,

That stretch all true realities.



That keep calling me,

They keep calling me,

Keep on calling me,

They keep calling me.



Where figures from the past stand tall,

And mocking voices ring the halls.

Imperialistic house of prayer,

Conquistadors who took their share.



That keep calling me,

They keep calling me,

Keep on calling me,

They keep calling me...


VINCE GILL lyrics - The Reason Why



Why do I choose the things I choose

Why do I always find some lame excuse

And why do I not realize what I could do

Oh, I wish I knew the reason why



Why do you get that sad look on your face

And why do you pull away from my embrace

And why do you see all my faults and my mistakes

Oh, I wish you knew the reason why



Why do we treat each other like we do

It's like we never even tried

Why can't we get back to the love we knew

Oh why oh baby why



Why do we have to play the same old games

And why do we run away from who's to blame

And can't we see to lose this love would be a shame

Oh, I wish we knew the reason why

Oh, I wish we knew the reason why


DARYL HALL AND JOHN OATES lyrics - Gino (The Manager)



(Daryl Hall/John Oates)



You've got Sicilian imagination

Second generation

And a long way from the family crime

But you've got your own way

Sign on the line, sign on the line, on the line



You're a patent leather lover

With you're Gucci-Pucci pointed shoes

And you're swearing on your mother

That "all this could be yours"

Sign on the line, sign on the line, on the line



Remember hard work means something

Live fast, die laughing

No hurt in asking

Nothing for nothing



Gino no no no no no no no no no no

No no no no no no no no no no no

No no no no no no no no no no no no!



You've got Contractual Agitation

Transcendental meditation works fine

But now you're paying off the Guru

Get to Heaven "on time"

Sign on the line, sign on the line, on the line



Remember hard work means something

Live fast, die laughing

No hurt in asking

Nothing for nothing



You couldn't live without little Gino, no

That's what he tells me, little Gino, no

You couldn't live without little Gino, no

That's what he tells me, little Gino, no no


GOLDEN EARRING lyrics - The Vanilla Queen



(G. Kooymans/B. Hay)



Fascinating lady, snowflake in the sun

You make me feel so bourgeois

Oh, you've captured everyone

I hear you've been a dancer

At some famous Paris show

And million dollar lovers

Neatly saw you to your door

Nineteen fifty seven,

Sweetheart of the year

Secret of your beauty,

Was your moontan and your fear

And now you run this city

You're still honey to the flies

Attract the incrowd dandies

Faraway-look in their eyesYou're the bright, nocturnal Vanilla Queen

Your mask is sterile dignity

Tell me why, nocturnal Vanilla Queen

You haunt me, even in my dreamsIt couldn't be avoided

We were bound to meet

I knew you would drag me down

And toss me off my feet

Sweet moments of desire

Sweet moments of relief

You blew down my fences

You're natural make-believe



You're the bright, nocturnal Vanilla Queen

Your mask is sterile dignity

Tell me why, nocturnal Vanilla Queen

You haunt me, even in my dreams

LED ZEPPELIN lyrics - Celebration Day



Her face is cracked from smiling, all the fears that she's been hiding,

And it seems pretty soon everybody's gonna know.

And her voice is sore from shouting, cheering winners who are losing,

And she worries if their days are few and soon they'll have to go.



[Chorus]

My, my, my, I'm so happy, I'm gonna join the band,

We are gonna dance and sing in celebration, We are in the promised land.



She hears them talk of new ways to protect the home she lives in,

Then she wonders what it's all about when they break down the door.



Her name is Brown or White or Black, you know her very well,

You hear her cries of mercy as the winners toll the bell.



[Chorus]

There is a train that leaves the station heading for your destination,

But the price you pay to nowhere has increased a dollar more.

Yes, it has!

And if you walk you're gonna get there though it takes a little longer,

And when you see it in the distance you will wring your hands and moan.


JIMMY BUFFETT lyrics - Funky Kingston



Hey hey hey hey hey

I want you to believe every word I say

I want you to believe every thing I do

I said music is what I've got baby

And I've got to find some way to make it

Music is what I've got baby

I want you to come on and shake it

Shake it, shake it baby

Oh yeah



Funky funky funky

Funky Kingston is what I've got for you, oh yeah

Funky Kingston, yeah is what I've got for you

Funky Kingston



Watch me now, you watch me now

Played from east to west yeah

I just played from north to south, yeah

All across America people keep on asking me for Funky Kingston

But I ain't got none

Somebody take it away from me

You got to go and fetch one

Funky Kingston


THE HOLLIES lyrics - Please Don't Feel Too Bad



(Ransford)



[Chorus:]

Please don't feel too bad because I'm leaving

I'm coming home again to you

And when I go away I know you're grieving

Although you know that I'll be true



I'm wondering what to do to make you know you're mine

I'll take you in my arms and then all will be fine



And when I'm away from you you know I'll miss you

I want to feel your tender touch

And when I'm feeling blue I want to kiss you

I stay away from you too much



[Chorus]



[Verse 2]



Whoa whoa yeah too much

Yeah yeah yeah too much

Whoa whoa whoa too much


ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - My Very Good Friend The Milkman



(Harold Spina and Johnny Burke)



My very good friend the milkman says

That I've been losing to much sleep

He doesn't like the hours I keep

And he suggests that you should marry me



My very good friend the mailman says

That it would make his burden less

If we both had the same address

And he suggests that you should marry me.



Then there's a very friendly fellow who prints

All the latest real estate news

And every day he sends me blueprints

Of cottages with country views



My very good friends the neighbours say

That they've been watching little things I do

And they perceive that I love you

So I suggest that you should marry me.
