THE ROLLING STONES lyrics - Thru And Thru

(M. Jagger/K. Richards)



You know that we do take away

We deliver too

Open 24 hours babe

Just waiting on a call from you

Waiting on a call from you

Well I'm in the yellow pages

You just take a look

Look me up under services

You know it's just an open book

Babe it's just an open book

It's just an open book

Well baby

Any minute, any hour

I'm waiting on a call from you

And you know this heart is constant

I'm your lover, baby

Thru and thru

Lover, baby, thru and thru

I only found out yesterday

I heard it on the news

What I heard really pissed me off

Cause now I got those fucking blues

I got those awesome blues

Babe I got those nothing blues

Any minute, any hour

I'm waiting on a call from you

And you know this heart is constant

I'm your lover, baby

Thru and thru

Lover, baby, thru and thru

You know that we do take-away

That we deliver, too

We're open 24 hours, baby

We're waiting on a call from you

But any minute, baby, any hour

I'm waiting on a call from you

You know that this heart is constant

I'm your lover, baby

Thru and thru

Lover, baby, thru and thru

Lover, baby, thru and thru

Lover, baby, thru and thru

BONNIE TYLER lyrics - The Best

(Holly Knight & Mike Chapman)



I call you when I need you

And my heart's on fire

You come to me, come to me

Wild and wired

You come to me, give me everything I need



You bring a lifetime of promises

And a world of dreams

You speak the language of love

Like you know what it means

And it can't be wrong

Take my heart and make it strong



Cause you're simply the best

Better than all the rest

Better than anyone

Anyone I ever met

I'm stuck on your heart

I hang on every word you said

Tear us apart

Baby I would rather be dead



Deep in your heart

I see the start

Of every night and every day

And in your eyes I get lost

I get washed away

Just as long as I'm here in your arms

I could be in no better place

Cause you're simply the best

ELF lyrics - Shotgun Boogie

Someone in the front of the shop needed a bar

Heard the boogie-woogie from the back of the car

Rooting, tooting, shooting by the man with the horn

Wailing since the day he was born



To get me on the scheme you gotta keep me alive

Jitter-bugging baby doing nothing but jive

Padded in the shoulders but your front is all wrong

You got me coming can you keep it on going



I wanna reach you baby

Got to put the phone down

And let it ring in my ear

Maybe in the morning

We can see if something's dawning

Am I making myself very clear



Oh, hands come alive

Move from side to side

Hands come alive

Shotgun boogie make it low down

All right, oh yeah

All right, oh yeah

Ooh, ooh, baby



Oh, hands come alive

Move from side to side

Hands come alive

Do that boogie jive



Oh, hands come alive

Move from side to side

Hands come alive

Baby, shotgun boogie make it low down



Hands come alive

Move from side to side

Hands come alive

Do the shotgun boogie make it low down



Hands come alive

Move from side to side

Hands come alive

The shotgun boogie make it low down



Hands come alive

Move from side to side

Hands come alive

Do the shotgun boogie make it low down

Low down, low down

Oh

Shotgun boogie make it l low down

Aaa

COWBOY JUNKIES lyrics - Hard To Explain

If it ain't one thing

I tell you it's always another

I wonder why

I started treating you like a step-brother



Love is hard to explain

I know my loss is someone else's gain



Sometime's love is like a bitter pill

But we just have to take it like it is

Sometimes life is the sweetest thing

And sometimes it's just naked pain



Oh, it's so hard to explain

I know my loss is someone else's gain



My troubles started when I found you

But that's when I (wrapped?) my world around you

And now my living ain't so easy

I thought that's what a woman was supposed to do



You see, it's so hard to explain

I know my loss is someone else's gain



I went to see my doctor

`Cause I thought I had a hole in my heart

But he said "Girl, you're just wasting my time

Because some man messed up,

Went and messed up your mind"



It's so hard to explain

I know my loss is someone else's gain



Oh, love it's so hard to explain

It'll make you forget your name

It'll turn you upside down

It'll make you wish that you'd never been found

THE SUPREMES lyrics - Up The Ladder To The Roof

Come with me

And we shall run across the sky

And illuminate the night



O-h-h-h, I will try and guide you

To better times and brighter days

Don't be afraid...



Come up the ladder to the roof

Where we can see heaven much better

Come up the ladder to the roof

Where we can be (where we can be) mmm...

(where we can be)...closer to heaven

(To heaven-stay)



Stay with me

And we shall let expression

("sing")



Can't you hear 'em ring

Ooh

(Memories of yesterday)

Yesterday's broken dreams

Dont you know, they'll all fade away

If you'll come...



Up the ladder to the roof

Where we can see heaven much better

Come up the ladder to the roof

Where we can be

[Mary:] (where we can be)

[Cindy:] (where we can be)

Aahh... closer to heaven



We'll laugh and I tell you the story of love-how it is-and the

Happiness in it baby

We'll combine our thoughts

And together we'll travel the roads to the fountain of lovliness

I will never ever ever leave you leave you alone to wonder

As we go on our love it will grow much stronger and stronger

Don't you wanna go...

Up the ladder to the roof

Where we can see heaven much better

Up the ladder where we can be closer to heaven



Aah

Up the...

(up the)



Ooh hoo

Up the

(up the)



Ooh come on and walk

Come on and talk

Come on and sing about love and understanding

FRANK SINATRA lyrics - I Get A Kick Out Of You

(C. Porter)



[Recorded April 10, 1962, Los Angeles]



My story is much too sad to be told,

But practically everything leaves me totally cold.

The exception I know is the case

When I'm out on a quiet spree,

Fighting 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, they may go for cocaine.

I'm sure that if I took even one sniff

It would bore me terrifically, too.

Yet I get a kick out of you.



I get a kick every time I see

You standing there before me.

I get a kick though it's clear to see

You obviously do not adore me.



I get no kick in a plane.

Flying too high with some gal in the sky

Is my idea of nothing to do.

Yet I get a kick - um you give me a boot - I get a kick out of you.

ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - Stormy Monday

(T-Bone Walker)



They call it stormy Monday, yes but Tuesday's just as bad.

They call it stormy Monday, yes but Tuesday's just as bad.

Wednesday's even worse; Thursday's awful sad.



The eagle flies on Friday, Saturday I go out to play.

The eagle flies on Friday, but Saturday I go out to play.

Sunday I go to church where I kneel down and pray.



And I say, "Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me.

Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me.

Just trying to find my baby, won't you please send her on back to me."



The eagle flies on Friday, on Saturday I go out to play.

The eagle flies on Friday, on Saturday I go out to play.

Sunday I go to church, where I kneel down, Lord and I pray.



Then I say, "Lord have mercy, won't you please have mercy on me.

Lord, oh Lord have mercy, yeah, won't you please, please have mercy on me.

I'm just a-lookin' for my sweet babe, so won't you please send him home, send him on home to me."

THE WHO lyrics - Boris The Spider

Look, he's crawling up my wall

Black and hairy, very small

Now he's up above my head

Hanging by a little thread



Boris the spider

Boris the spider



Now he's dropped on to the floor

Heading for the bedroom door

Maybe he's as scared as me

Where's he gone now, I can't see



Boris the spider

Boris the spider



Creepy, crawly

Creepy, crawly

Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly



There he is wrapped in a ball

Doesn't seem to move at all

Perhaps he's dead, I'll just make sure

Pick this book up off the floor



Boris the spider

Boris the spider



Creepy, crawly

Creepy, crawly

Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly



He's come to a sticky end

Don't think he will ever mend

Never more will he crawl 'round

He's embedded in the ground



Boris the spider

Boris the spider

AEROSMITH lyrics - Flesh

The day rolls in, the night rolls out

Desire rules without a doubt

The heart beats fast, you salivate

And when you come it won't be late

I guess by now you got the score

A little taste you want it more

From San Antonio to Marrakesh

Yeah when the night comes

Every body's gotta have FLESH

You got me all soakin' wet

FLESH - the only thing that's worth the sweat

From the day that Eve did Adam

Down to Romeo and Juliette

Everybody gotta have...



The prince of lust has met his match

The witch has brewed her baddest batch

His sword is sharp and hard as stone

Her cauldron begs for one more bone

And so my love, this story's told

From modern times to days of old

From Boston Mass to Bangladesh

Yeah, when the night comes

Everybody's gotta have FLESH

It's got me all soakin' wet

FLESH - the only thing that's worth the sweat, yeah

From the Mississippi River

To the highest mountain in Tibet

Everybody gotta have...



FLESH - you got me all soakin' wet

FLESH - the only thing that's worth the sweat

FLESH - you got me all soakin' wet

FLESH - the only thing, the only thing, the only thing

From a suvie in a Rickshaw to a bimbo in a pink Corvette

Everybody gotta have...

GREG ALLMAN AND CHER lyrics - Love Me

Treat me like a fool

Treat me mean and cruel

But love me

Take my aching heart

Tear it all apart

But oh love me

If you ever go

Darlin' I'll be oh so lonely

I'll be sad and blue

Crying over you

You dear only



Cause I would beg and steal

Oh honey, just to feel

I want your heart, yeah

Beating close to mine

If you ever go

Darling I'll be oh so lonely

Well, I'll be sad and blue

Crying over you

You dear only



Cause, I would beg and steal

Whoa, Gregory, just to feel

I want your heart, yeah

Beating close to mine



Treat me like a fool

Treat me mean and cruel

Ah, but love me

Beggin' on my knees

All I ask is please

Please, love me

J. J. CALE lyrics - Deep Dark Dungeon

(J. J. Cale)



I knew a man, made a heavy move

He shot his wife, his best friend too

They put him away in a deep dark dungeon

Where the sun don't never shine

I knew a woman, had a jealous mind

She got a man, she caught him lying

They put her away in a deep dark dungeon

Where the sun don't never shine

A friend of mine, he got five years

For selling dope and bootleg beers

They put him away in a deep dark dungeon

Where the sun don't never shine

Oh, Sleepy John had one vice

He liked to cheat at cards and dice

They put him away in a deep dark dungeon

Where the sun don't never shine

CARLY SIMON lyrics - Hurt

(Crane/Jacobs)



I'm hurt

to think that you lied to me

I'm hurt

Way down deep inside of me

You said

Our love was true

And we'd never part

And now

You want someone new

And it breaks my heart



I'm hurt

Much more than you'll ever know

I'm hurt

Because I still love you so

But even though you hurt me

Like nobody else could do

I would never never hurt you

BACHMAN-TURNER OVERDRIVE lyrics - Out About Love

Turn me loose from all this madness

Cause the situation changes day to day

I been searchin' the world to find the answer

I just got to find some time to slip away



[Chorus:]

I feel up, I feel down

I feel there's no use in hangin' around

I just got to get back on my feet

Find out about love

Where has love taken me?

Where will love lead me to?

So many questions, I gotta find out

Here it comes



There are times when friends are strangers

And I've got to find myself a hidin' place

If you think you can help me, here's my number

I'll be hidin' out where no one knows my face



[Chorus]



I feel up, I feel down

I feel there's no use in hangin' around

I just got to get back on my feet

I just got to get back on my feet

I just got to get back on my feet

Find out about love

Where has love taken me?

Where will love lead me to?

So many questions, I gotta find out

Here it comes, I gotta find out, here it comes

BONFIRE lyrics - Somebody's Waiting

Your feelings - and memories

are just like broken glass

your tears flow - like rivers

and birds have lost their songs



no words - to comfort you

they taste like cheap champagne

don't ever loose your faith in love

and you will smile again - 'cause



CHORUS

Somebody's waiting - for you

even if your heart is bleeding

Somebody's waiting - for you

to give you all you're dreaming of



Rain's falling - all over you

it's pounding on your wounds

sun's hiding - before your eyes

it cuts your heart in two



some wounds get deeper and deeper

and time won't ease your pain

just trust in love - sometimes it hurts

cause love will never change



CHORUS

VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR lyrics - Lost II. Dance In Frost

I wore my moods like so many different sets of clothes

but the right one was never around;

and as you left I heard my body ring

and my mind began to howl

It was far to late to contemplate the meaning of it all:

You know that I need you, but somehow I don't think

you see my love at all



At some point I lost you, I don't know quite how it was;

The wonderland lay in a coat of white, chilling frost

I looked around and I found I was truly lost:

without your hand in mine I am dead.....

Reality is unreal and games I've tried just aren't the same:

without your smile there's nowhere to hide

and deep inside

I know I've never cried as I'm about to...



If I could just frame the words that would make your fire burn

all this water now around me could be the love that

should surround me.



Looking out through the tears that bind me

my heart bleeds that you may find me.. or at least that I can

forget and be numb, but I can't stop, the words still come:

I LOVE YOU

THE MOTELS lyrics - Suddenly Last Summer

It happened one summer

It happened one time

It happened forever

For a short time

A place for a moment

An end to dream

Forever I loved you

Forever it seemed



One summer never ends

One summer never began

It keeps me standing still

It takes all my will

And then suddenly

Last summer



Sometimes I never leave

But sometimes I would

Sometimes I stay too long

Sometimes I would

Sometimes it frightens me

Sometimes it would

Sometimes I'm all alone

And wish that I could



One summer never ends

One summer never begins

It keeps me standing still

It takes all my will

And then suddenly

Last summer

And then suddenly

Last summer



[Instrumental Interlude]



One summer never ends

One summer never begins

It keeps me standing still

It takes all my will

And then suddenly

Last summer

And then suddenly

Last summer

Until suddenly

Last Summer



And then suddenly

Last summer

Until suddenly

Last Summer

KANSAS lyrics - A Glimpse Of Home

(Kerry Livgren)



When I was very young so many songs were sung

So much wasted time on an uphill climb

But you where always there, a feeling in the air

There was nothing to fear you were so near

Now you are here once again

As I stand in your presence

I can feel the quiet patience of your gaze

Like an old superstition

You are haunting all my dreams and waking days



(Chorus)

All my life I knew you were waiting, revelation anticipating

All is well, the search is over, let the truth be known

Let it be shown (give me a glimpse of home)



There's no resisting you among the chosen few

It's hard to be sure, it's hard to endure

And when I hear your voice

I know I have the choice

To pursue an ideal, something so real

Now I've got nothing to lose

As I see your reflection

All the answers I desire become so clear

Like a page that is turning

I can look into the future without fear



You're in my rock and roll, you're in my very soul

Though it's heavy to bear, it's a feeling so rare

And it's a mystery, the way it's meant to be

Can we ever know, we're moving so slow

There ain't enough time in the world

As I reach up the ladder

There is something ever higher to perceive

Like a fire that is burning

In my heart I know I surely must believe

RAY CHARLES lyrics - We'll Be The Same

They say a person changes ev'ry seven years:

I've been 3 diff'rent persons with one name.

My years with you will all be made-in-Heaven years.

So love's a thing that will remain the same!

I the future when styles and customs seems strange

My love is the one thing that won't change!



The sun may shine and rise at night

Birds swim and fish take flight -

Height-ho, it's still all right.

We'll be the same

They may have 13 month in a year

Nations may disappear-

Height-ho no need to fear,

We'll be the same!

Though Hollywood's screenless,

Boston beanless,

And the sea turn into land,

The country may tumble

I won't grumble-

I'll be holding your hand

Though love no longer is in style,

Height-ho, we'll only smile!

We've got that flame,

We'll be the same! Verse

KENNY LOGGINS lyrics - Lady Luck

Seven-eleven he rolled,

And all his life was a golden gamble.

You'd see him reeling it in when the odds were high.

Something supernatural, a charlatan, a mastermind,

Or some lucky lady's design.



Oh, what the devil, it's fun,

His lady luck was his one companion,

And by the silver and gold,

His heart had been bought and bound.

But he chanced to fall in new love,

He kissed her and he cut the tie,

And kissed his lucky lady goodbye.



Oh, spin your wheel of fortune.

Shuffle the cards, blow on the dice.

Are you with me in love,

Like you've been with me in life?

If I leave you for a lover,

Would you leave me far behind?



You should've known from the start,

She'd take no part in a love triangle.

You have to be her's alone,

And go it on your own.

'Cause if you've found a new love,

Lady Luck is gonna step aside.

So kiss your lucky lady goodbye.



[Instrumental]



Spin your wheel of fortune.

Shuffle the cards, blow on the dice.

Are you with me in love,

Like you've been with me in life?

If I leave you for an hour,

Would you leave me far behind?



Seven-eleven he rolled,

And all his life was a golden gamble.

You'd see him reeling it in when the odds were high.

Something supernatural, a charlatan, was a mastermind,

Or some lucky lady's,

Or some jealous lady,

Kiss your lucky lady goodbye.

Don't pass this way again, goodbye.

Don't pass this way again, goodbye.

ROY ORBISON lyrics - She Wears My Ring

She wears my ring to show the world that she belongs to me

She wears my ring to show the world she's mine eternally

With loving care I placed it on her finger

To show my love for all the world to see

This tiny ring is a token of tender emotion

An endless pool of love that's as deep as the ocean

She swears to wear it with eternal devotion

That's why I sing, because she wears my ring



She swears to wear it with eternal devotion

That's why I sing, because she wears my ring



This tiny ring is a token of tender emotion

An endless pool of love that's as deep as the ocean

She swears to wear it with eternal devotion

That's why I sing, because she wears my ring

That's why I sing, because she wears my ring

THE KINGSTON TRIO lyrics - Chilly Winds

(John Phillips/John Stewart)



[Chorus:]

I'm goin' where them chilly winds don't blow. Gonna find a true love. That is where I want to go.

Out where them chilly winds don't blow.



Sing your song, sing it soft and low. Sing it for your baby and then I'll have to go. Out where them chilly winds don't blow



Wish I was a headlight on a west bound train. I'd shine my light on cool Colorado range

Out where them chilly winds don't blow.



If you're feelin' lonely, if you're feelin' low. Remember that I loved you more than you will ever know.

Goin' where them chilly winds don't blow.



[Chorus]



I'm leavin' in the springtime, won't be back till fall. If I can forget you, I might not come back at all.

Out where them chilly winds don't blow. [Repeat 2x]

GOO GOO DOLLS lyrics - Real

You read the news, it turns you inside out

And everybody feels the same as you

In uncertain times, the uncertain rules apply

Caught in the blind spot of being in love



Can you feel

Real like you are

Can you feel in love

When you're feeling alive

And the biggest chance that we can take is open arms and wide awake

Hold me now,

So we can feel alive

Tonight



I need to feel you there

I want to know where I belong

And I felt the sting, the sting of corrosion

And I need a safe place to close my eyes



Can you feel

Real like you are

Can you feel in love

When you're feeling alive

And the biggest chance that we can take is open arms and wide awake

Hold me now,

So we can feel alive



You, you were so lost

And it was so much more than you could bear

And I was caught in my defeat

You're alone and incomplete

Will this sound ever break down the wall



Can you feel

Real like you are

Can you feel in love

When you're feeling alive

And the biggest chance that we can take is open arms and wide awake

Hold me now,

So we can feel alive



(So I can feel alive...)

Tonight.

JONI MITCHELL lyrics - Yvette In English

He met her in a French cafe

She slipped in sideways like a cat

Sidelong glances

What a wary little stray!

She sticks in his mind like that

Saying, "Avez-vous un allumette?"

With her lips wrapped around a cigarette

Yvette in English saying,

"Please have this

Little bit of instant bliss."



He's fumbling with her foreign tongue;

Reaching for words and drawing blanks

A loud mouth is stricken deaf and dumb

In a bistro on the left bank

"If I were a painter," Picasso said,

"I'd paint this girl from toe to head!"

Yvette in English saying,

"Please have this

Little bit of instant bliss."



Burgundy nocturne tips and spills

They trot along nicely in the spreading stain

New chills, new thrills

For the old uphill battle

How did he wind up here again?

Walking and talking

Touched and scared

Uninsulated wires left bare

Yvette in English going,

"Please have this

Little bit of instant bliss."



What blew her like a leaf his way?

(Up in the air and down to Earth)

First she flusters

Then she frays

So quick to question her own worth

Her cigarette burns her fingertips

As it falls like fireworks she curses it

Then sweetly in English she says,

"Please have this,

Little bit of instant bliss."



He sees her turn and walk away

Skittering like a cat on stone-

Her high heels clicking-

What a wary little stray!

She leaves him by the Seine alone

With the black water and the amber lights

And the bony bridge between left and right

Yvette in English saying,

"Please have this

Little bit of instant bliss."

DIANA ROSS AND THE SUPREMES lyrics - Then

(William "Smokey" Robinson/R. Rogers/W. Moore)



If Columbus never sailed the sea

If Longfellow never wrote a rhyme

If leaves have never grown upon a tree

And if the sands have never told the time

Then I guess I don't love you

Love you like I do

Then I guess I'll have to find me someone new

Then I guess this love I feel couldn't possibly be real



If Beethoven never wrote a song

And if Shakespeare never wrote a play

If a man has never done a wrong

And if night has never followed day

Then I guess I don't love you

Love you like I do

Then I guess I'll have to find me someone new

Then I guess this love for you couldn't possibly be true



If high is low

And up is down

And if love is not considered an emotion

If yes is no

And square is round

And if waves had never rode across the ocean



If Michaelangelo could never paint

And if Jezebel was a saint

Then I guess I don't love you

Love you like I do

Then I guess I'll have to find me someone new

Then I guess this love is wrong couldn't possibly be strong



Then I don't love you

Love you like I do

Then I guess I'll have to find me someone new

Then I guess this love I feel...

RAY DAVIES lyrics - Autumn Almanac

From the dew-soaked hedge creeps a crawly caterpillar,

When the dawn begins to crack.

It's all part of my autumn almanac.

Breeze blows leaves of a musty-coloured yellow,

So I sweep them in my sack.

Yes, yes, yes, it's my autumn almanac.



Friday evenings, people get together,

Hiding from the weather.

Tea and toasted, buttered currant buns

Can't compensate for lack of sun,

Because the summer's all gone.



La-la-la-la...

Oh, my poor rheumatic back

Yes, yes, yes, it's my autumn almanac.

La-la-la-la...

Oh, my autumn almanac

Yes, yes, yes, it's my autumn almanac.



I like my football on a Saturday,

Roast beef on Sundays, all right.

I go to Blackpool for my holidays,

Sit in the open sunlight.



This is my street, and I'm never gonna to leave it,

And I'm always gonna to stay here

If I live to be ninety-nine,

'Cause all the people I meet

Seem to come from my street

And I can't get away,

Because it's calling me, (come on home)

Hear it calling me, (come on home)



La-la-la-la...

Oh, my autumn Armagnac

Yes, yes, yes, it's my autumn almanac.

La-la-la-la...

Oh, my autumn almanac

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.



Bop-bop-bopm-bop-bop, whoa!

Bop-bop-bopm-bop-bop, whoa!

TALKING HEADS lyrics - The Good Thing

I will fight; will fight with my heart.

I will fight; will fight with understanding.

In my mind, the weather never changes

Skill overcomes, difficult situations.



A straight line exists between me and the good things.

I have found the line and its direction is known to me.

Absolute trust keeps me going in the right direction.

Any intrusion is met with a heart full of the good thing.



Try to compare what I am presenting.

You will meet with much frustration.

Try to find... similar situation.

You will always find the same solution.



As the heart finds the good thing, the feeling is multiplied.

Add the will to the strength and it equals conviction.

As we economise, efficiency is multiplied,

To the extent I am determined the result is the good thing.

So I say:

I have adopted this and made it my own:

Cut back the weakness, reinforce what is strong.

SANTANA lyrics - Can't You Hear Me Knocking

[Originally by The Rolling Stones]



Yeah, you got satin shoes

Yeah, you got plastic boots

Y'all got cocaine eyes

Yeah, you got speed-freak jive



Can't you hear me knockin' on your window

Can't you hear me knockin' on your door

Can't you hear me knockin' down your dirty street, yeah



Help me baby, ain't no stranger

Help me baby, ain't no stranger

Help me baby, ain't no stranger



Can't you hear me knockin', ahh, are you safe asleep?

Can't you hear me knockin', yeah, down the gas light street, now

Can't you hear me knockin', yeah, throw me down the keys



Alright now

Hear me ringing big bell tolls

Hear me singing soft and low

I've been begging on my knees

I've been kickin', help me please



Hear me prowlin'

I'm gonna take you down

Hear me growlin'

Yeah, I've got flatted feet now, now, now, now

Hear me howlin'

And all, all around your street now

Hear me knockin'

And all, all around your town

NANCI GRIFFITH lyrics - Morning Song For Sally

(Jerry Jeff Walker)



As the morning light stretched in across my bed

I thought of you

Remembering your laughing eyes and all we said

I love you too

As all my thoughts of you pass 'fore my face a thousand times

The way they race my heart... I cannot say it all in lines



How the short time together lasts so long

Makes me strong

As two weeks came and went then you and I were gone

Living on

For it seems our love was destined

To be caught in other nets

But the love we held so brief

I'd chance again without regret



Yes, standing by the road has been my song before

Much too long

But now somehow I'm forced to

See me there once more

And that's the song

For my waking thoughts of you are

But extensions of the dream

Without you here beside me

I'll never know all that they mean



As the morning light stretched in across my bed

I thought of you

Remembering your laughing eyes and all we said

I love you too

As all my thoughts of you pass 'fore my face a thousand times

The way they race my heart... I cannot say it all in lines

GREEN DAY lyrics - Brain Stew

I'm having trouble trying to sleep

I'm counting sheep but running out

As time ticks by

And still I try

No rest for crosstops in my mind



On my own... here we go



My eyes feel like they're gonna bleed

Dried up and bulging out my skull

My mouth is dry

My face is numb

Fucked up and spun out in my room



On my own... here we go



My mind is set on overdrive

The clock is laughing in my face

A crooked spine

My sense dulled

Passed the point of delerium



On my own... here we go



My eyes feel like they're gonna bleed

Dried up and bulging out my skull

My mouth is dry

My face is numb

Fucked up and spun out in my room



On my own... here we go

LIGHTNIN' HOPKINS lyrics - Cemetery Blues

(Robert Ellen)



Poor grandpa, he died but that's the debt we all got to pay

Yeah, we livin' now but every livin' people done, whoa Lord, he gotta died one day



Lord I followed the hearse down to the burial ground,

See four men when they let poor grandpa down

Yes I followed the hearse down to the burial ground,

See four men when they let poor grandpa down

Couldn't stand it, mercy, Lord

Yes you know it hurtin' me so bad, till I almost had a nervous breakdown



Yes she know it was sad when we got back home, po' grandma

That's who I felt sorry for, and myself too in a way

When we got back home, this is what grandma say

She "Son, where's my bonnet" and she had it on her head

You know it was sad time, sad time when grandpa died,

Whoa, we didn't have no place to go

Grandma said "Your good times is over, grandpa is gone

You'll never have no good times no more"

MOTORHEAD lyrics - Tales Of Glory

I can't believe the tales you tell me

I ain't buyin' the stuff you sell me

Hey baby, I'm tellin' ya what

You think I'm sold, baby I'm not

You tell me, tales of glory

But I know, whoa babe, it's the same old story



You think I'm gonna fall for you

You reckon that I'm goin' right thru

But I ain't no adolescent

I'm just gonna keep your guessing

You ain't gonna stitch me up

You'll find that I'm real bad luck

I'm gonna leave you babe

But think of the money you'll save

You tell me, tales of glory

But I know whoa babe it's the same old story



Leave me out, leave me out

Sick and tired without a doubt

Get me out, get me out

Get me out of here



Endlessly, endlessly

You mouth won't set me free

Endlessly, endlessly

Rabbit in my ear

RENAISSANCE lyrics - Can You Understand

Dollars down the penny drain

Frozen in the clouds

Dream away the last of pain

In waterfalls of sounds



Float across the icy pools

Leaves with curl and sway

Now your mind is floating cool

And you can find the way



Can you understand you can really understand

When the darkness comes you still shine

Open up your eyes and make the day shine sunshine now

Open up your dreams and and make the way shine sunshine now

Can you understand you understand

Can you understand you understand

Open up your life and make your lifetime sunshine now

Open up your soul and make your lifeline sunshine now

Can you understand you understand

Can you understand you understand



Dancing without moving now

Growing with your soul

One with all around you now

Related to the all



Purple mist around your hair

Eyes are fading blue

Smiling into everywhere

Love is coming through

TEENA MARIE lyrics - Naked To The World

Hello stranger, don't say a word

'Cause we haven't got much time

So for now just hold me



I'm wishing on a star, baby, to follow where you are

And to shine, like you shined when your love was mine

Before we were, now what we are



Baby, there's a silence that's golden in my eyes

And if you'd just listen my lips will tell you why



That when I say that I'm a lonely girl

I'm feeling like I'm naked to the world

And if you leave with my defenses down

I'll never hear another sound but my heart



Beating-hush don't explain

'Cause we've got to make the most

Out of every moment



I'm wishing, wishing on a star to follow where you are

And though the time moves so fast in the hourglass

Can you give me now what you are



Baby there was winter in our discontent

And if you just listen I'll tell you what I meant



That when I say that I'm a lonely girl

I'm feeling like I'm naked to the world

And if you leave with my defenses down

I'll never hear another sound but my heart



Beating, beating-whoa, whoa, whoa

Naked to the silence that's ringing, ringing in my ears

And if you'd just listen my lips are gonna tell you dear



That when I say that I'm a lonely girl

I'm feeling like I'm naked

I'm feeling like I'm naked

I'm feeling like, I'm feeling like I'm naked

Naked, naked to the world

Naked to the, naked to the world



That when I say that I'm a lonely girl

Oh I can't stand it-No, I can't stand it

That ain't the way no-that ain't the way God planned it

Naked to the world, I'm just a lonely girl

I'm living in a lonely world

And if you walk out my door

I won't be able to stand no more

MICHAEL MCDONALD lyrics - Everlasting

(Will Jennings And Michael McDonald)



This love is the only thing

Pinning our future to the past

What we have will always be

The part of this living that lasts



Baby, here I stand unafraid

To foresake this world for your tenderness

I'm reachin' out, I can't give up



Sometimes it seems to me

That this world is only where we start

For all it's wonder I still believe

The answer lies deep within our hearts



Baby, here I stand unafraid

To give myself, to be set free

In love we find, there is no end

We've always been

We'll always be everlasting



Everlasting

We are everlasting

Everlasting

We are everlasting



Baby, here I stand unafraid

To foresake this world for your tenderness



I'm reachin' out, I can't give up

'cause nothing matters

Without your lovingness

ZUCCHERO lyrics - Oh Stevie

(Zucchero - Cheope)



Oh Stevie

Canti come un Dio

Tu canti il tuo dolore

Pero soffro pure io

Che vivo in Italy



Voglio andare via da qui

Via da questo imbroglio

Preferisco via da qui

Solo su uno scoglio

Quanta colta incivilta

Dove andremo non si sa

Che disastro



Oh Stevie

Canti come un Dio

Tu canti il tuo dolore

Pero soffro pure io

Che vivo in Italy



Mergellina dove sta

Affacciata sul petrolio

E Venezia e sempre la

E non batte ciglio



Chi ti ha ucciso non si sa

Dolce cara mia citta

Che disastro



Oh Stevie

Canti come un Dio

Tu canti il tuo dolore

Pero soffro pure io

Che vivo in Italy



Chi ti ha ucciso non si sa

Dolce cara mia citta

Che disastro



Oh Stevie

Canti come un Dio

Tu canti il tuo dolore

Pero soffro pure io

Che vivo in Italy

RICK SPRINGFIELD lyrics - Mother Can You Carry Me

(Springfield)



When I was younger than tomorrow

When I was wise as yesterday

When I could share my brother's sorrow

Even then you went away



When my heart was yours to play with

Though your was never mine

And when I was there to lay with

Even then you had no time



Mother can you carry me

Clear across the sky

Mother can you carry me

Show me how to fly high



Now I am wise as tomorrow

And I am young as yesterday

No I have nothing buy my sorrow

Yesterday tomorrow and today



Mother can you carry me

Clear across the sky

Mother can you carry me

Show me how to fly high

LOBO lyrics - I Long To See My Home

(Kent LaVoie)



I'm so tired of being so alone

So scared I'm sick inside

I long to see my home

On yellow river

KING CRIMSON lyrics - Three Of A Perfect Pair

(Belew/King Crimson)



she is susceptible

he is impossible

they have their cross to share

three of a perfect pair...

he has his contradicting views

she has her cyclothymic moods

they make a study in despair

three of a perfect pair...



one, one too many

schizophrenic tendencies

keeps it complicated

keeps it agggravated

and full of this hopelessness

what a perfect mess...

BREAD lyrics - It Don't Matter To Me

It don't matter to me

If you really feel that

You need sometime to be free

Time to go out searching for yourself

Hoping to find time to go to find



And it don't matter to me

If you take up with someone

Who's better than me

'Cause your happiness is all I want

For you to find peace your piece of mind



Lotta people have an ego hang-up

'Cause they want to be the only one

How many came before it really doesn't matter

Just as long as you're the last

Everybody's moving on and try to find out

What's been missing in the past



And it don't matter to me

If your searching brings you back together with me

'Cause there'll always be

An empty room waiting for you

An open heart waiting for you

Time is on my side

'Cause it don't matter to me

PRINCE lyrics - Love

Stop telling me what U want me 2 hear

Stop telling me what U want me 2 fear

Stop trippin' on something U overheard

Love is winning without a word

Stop giving me Ur "wish list"

Love is free from all this



Like a bird flyin' over the hilltops

Love is like the sky, U know it never stops

From the abudance of the heart the mouth speaks

Love is whatever... whatever... U want it 2 b



Love is not a game U can play on the floor

U gotta stop keepin' score

If U wanna, If U want 2 play me like U did b4

U better stop and walk out the door

U can skate around the issue if U like

But who's gonna get U high in the middle of the night?



Like a bird flyin' over the hilltops

Love is like the sky, U know it never stops

From the abudance of the heart the mouth speaks

Love is whatever... whatever... U want it 2 b



I c U standing with Ur back on the wall

U better, better get Ur hands up and clap if that's all

And uh, if U don't wanna get Urs, then let me get mine

See, ain't gonna b no drama 'cause we have a good time



What's the point of giving me ultimatums?

Smiling at my friends when U really hate 'em

Trying 2 convince me that eye should 2...

What's the point?



Stop worryin' about what people say

When it ain't gonna stop them anyway

Love can do anything if U try

Come on... Spread Ur wings... Let's fly, fly so high



Flyin' over the hilltops

Love is like the sky, U know it never stops

From the abudance of the heart the mouth speaks

Love is whatever... whatever... whatever...



Like a bird flyin' over the hilltops

Love is like the sky, U know it never stops

From the abudance of the heart the mouth speaks

Love is whatever... whatever... U want it 2 b



Whatever U want it 2 B

Alright

Let's skate



I c U standing with Ur back on the wall

Better get Ur hands up and clap if that's all

If U don't wanna get Urs, then let me get mine

See, ain't gonna b no drama 'cause we have a good time



Bounce

Aww, shake that thing, c'mon

Ahh, bounce it baby

Aww, shake that thing c'mon

Good god

VINCE GILL lyrics - Blue Christmas

(Billy Hayes, Jay W. Johnson)



I'll have a blue Christmas without you

I'll be so blue thinking about you

Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree

Won't mean a thing, dear, if you're not here with me



I'll have a blue Christmas, that's certain

And when that blue heartache starts hurting

You'll be doing all all right with your Christmas of white

But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas



You'll be doing all all right with your Christmas of white

But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas



You'll be doing all all right with your Christmas of white

But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas

TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS lyrics - You Don't Know How It Feels

(Tom Petty)



Let me run with you tonight

I'll take you on a moonlight ride

There's someone I used to see

But she don't give a damn for me



But let me get to the point, let's roll another joint

And turn the radio loud, I'm too alone to be proud

You don't know how it feels

You don't know how it feels to be me



People come, people go

Some grow young, some grow cold

I woke up in between

A memory and a dream



So let's get to the point, let's roll another joint

Let's head on down the road

There's somewhere I gotta go

And you don't know how it feels

You don't know how it feels to be me



My old man was born to rock

He's still tryin' to beat the clock

Think of me what you will

I've got a little space to fill



So let's get to the point, let's roll another joint

And let's head on down the road

There's somewhere I got to go

And you don't know how it feels

No, you don't know how it feels to be me

JOAN BAEZ lyrics - Fairfax County

(D. Massengill)



Oh, once I loved an outlaw

He came and stole my heart

Oh, how I count the hours

Since we were torn apart



On the road to Fairfax County

I spied a highwayman

He wanted all my money

My heart beat like a drum



I gave him all my money

And sweet he smiled at me

His beauty eye took pity

Beneath the black oak tree



We kissed but for an hour

The sun was newly warm

The clouds were as the flowers

That bloom but for a morn



He gave back all my money

And bowed most gallantly

He promised for to meet me

That night beneath the tree



We'd flee to some far island

And there we would be wed

And freely we would live there

With no price upon his head



That night I went to meet him

With my inheritance

He kissed me 'neath the half moon

And joyful we did dance



Oh, love betrays all secrets

It whispers in the breeze

The Sheriff, he did follow

With all his deputies



Like hounds rushing to slaughter

The fox whose luck is run

And he stood erect and cursed them

God damn you every one



They seized him in a fury

And heeding not my pleas

They hung him from the oak tree

Where he made love to me



Ohh, once I loved an outlaw

He came and stole my heart

Oh, how I count the hours

Since we were torn apart

THE MANHATTAN TRANSFER lyrics - How High The Moon

(Nancy Hamilton/Morgan Lewis)



Somewhere there's music, how faint the tune

Somewhere there's heaven,

How high the moon

There is no moon above where love is far away too

'Til it comes true

That you love me as I love you



Somewhere there's music, how near how far

Somewhere there's heaven, it's where you are

The darkest night would shine if you would come to me soon

Until you will be still my heart

How high the moon!



[Guitar Solo]



Somewhere there's music, how faint the tune

Somewhere there's a heaven,

How high the moon

There is no moon above where love is far away too

Until you will, be still my heart

How high the moon!

THE CHURCH lyrics - Intro

Next up is a band that formed in Australia back in 1980. And they've evolved since then. They're not your usual pop-rock band. As a matter of fact, this band's music is much more rich and detailed and nuanced as you'll soon find out. They've been recording their new album which is called "After Everything Now This." It's been in the works for the last couple of years. And it's a great treat to welcome for the first time... The Church.

AC/DC lyrics - Shot Down In Flames

(A. Young / M. Young / B. Scott)



Whoa, want you



Out on the town

Lookin' for a woman

Gonna gimme good love

Anybody wanna hand off me

And give me plenty of

She was standin' alone

Over by the juke box

Like she'd some thing to sell

I said baby what's the goin' price

She told me to go to hell

Shot down in flames

Shot down in flames

Ain't it a shame

To be shot down in flames



Singles bar

Got my eye on a honey

Hangin' out everywhere

She might be straight

She might want my money

I really don't care, no

Said baby

Drivin' me crazy

Laid it right on the line

When a guy with a chip on his shoulder said

Toss off buddy she's mine

Shot down in flames

Shot down in flames

Ain't it a shame

To be shot down in flames



Hey you

Angus

Shoot me, shoot

That's nice

Shot down in flames

Shot down in flames

Ain't it a shame

To be shot down in flames

Shoot

Shot down in flames

Shot down in flames

Ain't it a shame

To be shot down in flames

I don't need a thing

Don't wanna be

Shot down in flames

NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS lyrics - Brompton Oratory

Up those stone steps I climb

Hail this joyful day's return

Into its great shadowed vault I go

Hail the Pentecostal morn



The reading is from Luke 24

Where Christ returns to his loved ones

I look at the stone apostles

Think that it's alright for some



And I wish that I was made of stone

So that I would not have to see

A beauty impossible to define

A beauty impossible to believe



A beauty impossible to endure

The blood imparted in little sips

The smell of you still on my hands

As I bring the cup up to my lips



No God up in the sky

No devil beneath the sea

Could do the job that you did, baby

Of bringing me to my knees



Outside I sit on the stone steps

With nothing much to do

Forlorn and exhausted, baby

By the absence of you

DEAN MARTIN lyrics - The Story Of Life (All This Is Mine)

All this is mine the blue of the sky

The feel of the soil the sun flaming high

The sight of a bird on the wing

The story of life is a glorious thing



All this is mine the green of the corn

The deep of the night the sleepy faced dawn

The cold of the fall or the spring

The story of life is a glorious thing



Wonderful wonderful wonders from heaven above

Miracle of miracles what is there greater than love

All this is your and mine to behold

The hopes and the dreams each day may enfold

What magic each moment can bring

The story of life is a glorious thing



(Wonderful wonderful) Wonders from heaven above

(Miracle of miracles) What is there greater than love

All this is your and mine to behold

The hopes and the dreams each day may enfold

What magic each moment can bring

The story of life is a glorious thing

ROD STEWART lyrics - Angel

(J. Hendrix)



Angel came down from heaven yesterday

stayed with me long enough to rescue me

And she told me a story yesterday

about the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea

Then she spread her wings high over me

she said she's goin' now, come back tomorrow

And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel, fly on through the sky

Fly on my sweet angel tomorrow I'm gonna be by your side"



Fly away, high away, fly away



Sure enough this morning came unto me

silver wings silhouetted against a child's sunrise

And my angel she said unto me

Today's the day for you to rise

Take my hand, you're gonna be my man, you're gonna rise

Then she took me high over yonder



And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel, fly on through the sky

Fly on my sweet angel forever I will be by your side"

And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel, fly on through the sky

Fly on my sweet angel forever I will be by your side"

Fly away, come back another day

GEORGE STRAIT lyrics - Rockin' In The Arms Of Your Memory

The first time I saw you

You were waitin' tables at the corner diner

I said to myself

Never seen a woman look any finer



From that moment on

I was stone cold gone

You wuld be forever in my mind



Now somewhere in the neon lights

I'm holdin' on for dear life

Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight



It was San Francisco

Silly sutis and white ties by the bay

You appeared with your papa

Tears were rolin' down your mother's face



Everyone was happy

Showered by well wishers as we drove away



Now somewhere in the neon lights

I'm holdin' on for dear life

Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight



I'm living but dying

I'm laughing but crying

Somebody tell me it will be alright



I bought it for your birthday

God you looked so lovely in that dress

I took you to a party

Or was it to a night club I forget



Been twenty years and counting

I'm drowning in your love a little more each day



Now somewhere in the neon lights

I'm holdin' on for dear life

Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight



Now somewhere in the neon lights

I'm holdin' on for dear life

Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight

BLACK SABBATH lyrics - Children Of The Grave

Revolution in their minds

The children start to march

Against the world in which they have to live

And all the hate that's in their hearts

They're tired of being pushed around

And told just what to do

They'll fight the world until they've won

And love comes flowing through.



Children of tomorrow live in the tears that fall today

Will the sunrise of tomorrow bringing peace in any way

Must the world live in the shadow of atomic fear

Can they win the fight for peace or will they disappear?



So you children of the world, listen to what I say

If you want a better place to live in spread the word today

Show the world that love is still alive you must be brave

Or you children of today are children of the grave.

ACCEPT lyrics - Sick, Dirty And Mean

He's got the power - he's like a god

But he's the devil of flesh and blood

A '45 is his religion - code of silence his belief

It's the kiss of death

A '45 is his religion - code of silence his belief



You can find them in a gutter

You will find 'em in your church

They always knows each other

They call it family



You may end up six-feet-under

Anywhere and anytime

It's a one-way-street with a thousand lanes

And a million ways to die



A Thompson sub-machine gun made my day



Sick, dirty and mean

You can hide but you can't run

Sick, dirty and mean

Headhunters cut you down



A godfather's kiss - an icepick in your eye

Sick, dirty and mean

It's like a killing machine



Can you hear your mother crying

Can you see your father die

Can you walk away from children

Dying facedown in the dirt



But if you break the code of silence

You gotta do it anyway

If we don't stop the violence

The mob is here to stay



A pair of concrete slippers

- there're all vultures all over your back

Sick, dirty and mean

You can hide but you can't run

Sick, dirty and mean

Headhunters cut you down



They will terminate your contract

- they will finalize the deal

Sick, dirty and mean

It's a killing machine



A '45 is his religion - code of silence his belief

It's a double barreled shotgun with an Ouzi on the side



Sick, dirty and mean

You can hide but you can't run

Sick, dirty and mean

Headhunters cut you down

If you wanna be a songbird -

there's an axe to clip your wings

Sick, dirty and mean

It's a killing machine



Sick, dirty and mean

Sick, dirty and mean

Sick, dirty and mean

Sick, dirty and mean

ASIA lyrics - Countdown To Zero

(Wetton/Downes)



The night is cold, the sun is down

I see faces through the wire

No chance for them

No shoulder left to cry on



It's 4 am out on the street

Through the smoke I see the fire

It's a funeral pyre

For them to die on



[Chorus:]

Countdown to zero

Just begun

Coundown to zero

It's time to start the run



The city lights are fading now

As I climb into the plane

To shield me from

The stinging acid rain



And this is it, it's over now

As we taxi down Runway One

Tell me please

You'll wake me when it's over



[Chorus]



Do you realize what's happening in Western Europe?

Norway, Finland, Scotland, England

We will be the first to go

Don't do it



[Chorus]



Don't do it

Don't do it

Don't start the countdown to zero

We want to live

We want to live

We will live

You've got your finger on the trigger

Take it off

Let it go

Let it pass

Let it go

RICHARD MARX lyrics - Love Goes On

Elusive happiness

Can be like promises

That rest so gently on our pillow

We stood out on the ledge

And leaned over the edge

And nearly fell right through that window



There were those who had us done by now

Baby, we've only just begun



[Chorus:]

The world may crash and burn

Or suddenly just cease to turn

But love goes on

It may look out of reach

And time may rob us like a thief

But love goes on

Our love goes on



No one may recognize

What lives behind our eyes

Sometimes the good times are the hardest

And when my strength is gone

It's you that I lean on

A light at the end of all my darkness



And in the end if I know nothing else

The answer is only in your arms



[Chorus:]

The world may crash and burn

Or suddenly just cease to turn

But love goes on

It may look out of reach

And time may rob us like a thief

But love goes on



And in the end if I know nothing else

The answer is right here in your arms

It's always in your arms



[Chorus:]

The world may crash and burn

Or suddenly just cease to turn

But love goes on

It may look out of reach

And time may rob us like a thief

But love goes on



Oh love goes on



It may look out of reach

And time may rob us like a thief

But love goes on

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN lyrics - Act Of Faith

(Newton-John/McDonald/Sims)



Sure as we know there will be dawn

That we'll see the morning sun

We should trust that thru the night

Our love will still shine on

Sometimes we get too comfortable

With things the way they are

What we both would ask of love

Might seem a bit too far



So far away - from hope and trust

Will love still be there for us

I pray - that forever

We will face all our fears & believe

That love will be there for us

So we pray - 'cos love is an act of faith



Once you said you would never leave

As you held me in the dark

I knew you by your love for me

And I soothed your longing heart

But now we're lying here miles apart

But close enough to touch

A sea of silence - much too wide

We stand to lose so much



Drifting away - from hope and trust

Will love still be there for us

I pray - that forever

We will face all our fears & believe

That love will be there for us

So we pray - 'cos love is an act of faith



You have my everything

So please don't take it away

The hope and trust

That love will be there for us

I pray - that forever

We will face all our fears & believe

That love will be there for us

We pray - that forever

We will face all our fears and believe

That love will be there for us

So we pray - 'cos love is an act of faith

JOHN HIATT lyrics - Master Of Disaster

Close one there

Choking in clean underwear

Bleeding tongue

Eight ball pounding in my lungs

Ship to shore

I can't see the coastline anymore

I shouldn't be here

I thought I made that loud and clear



But the master of disaster

Gets tangled in his telecaster

He can't play it any faster

When he plays the blues

When he had the heart to ask her

And every note just shook the plaster

Now he's just a mean old bastard

When he plays the blues



China town

Chasing that old dragon down

Madam Wong's

We play the blues with the curtains drawn

Sidewalks of white

While the LA sun beat out the night

Pounding brain

My last transmission down the drain



And the master of disaster

Gets tangled in his telecaster

He can't play it any faster

When he plays the blues

When he had the heart to ask her

And every note just shook the plaster

Now he's just a mean old bastard

When he plays the blues



There's a debt I owe

I'll never pay before I go

So I sing the blues

Hand me down my walking shoes

You're in my heart

Though we may be miles apart

There's my point

I'll see you in another joint



When the master of disaster

Gets tangled in his telecaster

He can't play it any faster

When he plays the blues

When he had the heart to ask her

And every note just shook the plaster

Now he's just a mean old bastard

When he plays the blues

ALISON KRAUSS lyrics - I Don't Have To Live This Way

I been up and down before

Grief won't hold me any more

You're running out of games to play

I don't have to live this way



Thought I loved you for awhile

You were loaded up on style

Talk is cheap but I won't play

I don't have to live this way



No I won't play the games that you've designed

And I won't wait to listen to your lines

Before you speak another word

I'll repeat it so I'm heard

You're running out of games to play

I don't have to live this way



You won't stay another night

Or did you want another right

Now I've got the eyes to see

You get your kicks by hurting me



No I won't play the games that you've designed

And I won't wait to listen to your lines

Before you speak another word

I'll repeat it so I'm heard

You're running out of games to play

I don't have to live this way

FRANK ZAPPA lyrics - Nasal Retentive Calliope Music

[including a fragment from Heavies (Aerni/Buff) by The Rotations (1963)]



YEAH!

Bwa-hah-hah!

Oh, my God. . .



EC: Beautiful! God! It's God! I see God!

JOHN DENVER lyrics - Sail Away Home

Sail away, sail away home. Sail away till you are gone.

You have so far to go, there's so much that you don't know.

Dream away, see what you find, yeah. Dream away, it's all in your mind.

Things that you'd like to see, things that you'd like to be.



Don't you know, it seems so wrong, yeah. Don't you know, it's gone on too long.

I can't take the guns anymore, I can't take the screams anymore, I can't take the pain.

It's got to stop, it's got to change, it can't go on, it can't go on.



Don't you know, it's gone on to long, yeah. Don't you know, it seems so wrong.

I can't take the guns anymore, I can't take the screams anymore, I can't take the pain.

It's got to stop, it's got to change, it can't go on, it can't go on.



Find a way, I know you can. Find a way, I'll give you my hand,

We're on our way back home, we've been a long time gone.

Sail away, sail away home. Sail away, sail away home. Sail away, sail away home.

ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - Something's Happening

(Jerry Lynn Williams)



[Chorus:]

Something's happening, something's going on.

Something's happening, something so strong.

Something's happening, something all over the world.



Spirit's moving and it's moving fast.

You better get aboard and don't be last.

Something's happening, something all over the world.



My life has been a series of endless changes,

A constant struggle to be free.

One thing I know for sure now baby,

It's me for you and you for me.



[Chorus]



[Repeat First Verse]

U. D.O. lyrics - Faceless World

Listen to me - this is a warning

You have to wake up out of this dream

Don't be a member of this lifestyle, please

I hear the beat of your heart



So better watch them - don't be frightened

Can't you feel it - can't you see it this time

So many things appear like wonders

Be shameless my friend - save what you've got



Welcome to this crazy world

You cannot blame everyone



See the stars and see the rainbows - see it all

Don't turn away - you're all you've got

In a faceless world

You can run - but you can't hide

It's yourself who waits for you inside



So believe me it's not evil

To break out of this spell

Don't be wasting a whole lifetime

Don't betray yourself anymore



So hear me calling - this is a warning

When you feel it - don't lose it this time

One day you will be way stronger

Be clever old friend, cause then you'll be free



Welcome to this crazy world

You cannot blame everyone

Dreams can come true



See the stars and see the rainbows - open your eyes

Don't turn away - you're all you've got

In a faceless world

You can run - but you can't hide

It's yourself who waits for you inside



So hear me calling

Don't wanna mistreat anymore

Just one desire

I want to break this spell



No more wondering

I wanna be clever this time

I hear your warning

I just wanna be myself



Saw the stars and all the rainbows - you've seen it all

You realized - you're all you've got

In the faceless world

You tried to run - but couldn't hide

It was you who found yourself inside



So hear me calling

Stop betraying yourself

Don't waste all your lifetime

You've been mistreated so many times

In this faceless world

You've got to break out of this spell

Listen to your heartbeat

Be restless my friend

Just one desire

I just wanna be myself

DAVID LEE ROTH lyrics - Drop In The Bucket

Just like the army

I was bein' all I could be

I was feelin' next to awesome

In my cleanest dirty jeans



She said

"Honey read the small print

If ya wanna be with me

When it comes to you and fashion

You're a totally emergency!



Right up the middle

Touchdown and that's the game

Extra point and you're never the same

Tight as a fiddle string

Shot right through the brain

Graspin' straws an' that ain't all

You'll slip right down her drain

Drop at a time is all ya need

Try it once but easy does it!

Satisfaction guaranteed

Try it twice, ya gotta love it!

Drop at a time is all ya need



She said, "Look, just don't touch it!"

Well, here goes one more drop in the bucket!

She wore a whole lot of not enough

And served it up with class

Had a sunny disposition

And a somewhat shady past

Her t-shirt ended early

And her hot pants started late

When it came to vice and versa

No I did not hesitate



Aww right to the action

For a bird's eye view of the play

There ain't a promise that you won't make

Hike, and keep passin'

And ya play it with a little pain

You came here for some love and war



So suit up for the game!

Drop at a time is all ya need

Try it once but easy does it!

Satisfaction guaranteed

Try it twice, ya gotta love it!

Drop at a time is all ya need

She said, "Look, just don't touch it!"

Well, here come one more drop in the bucket!

Here come one more drop in the the bucket

Gotta get it one more

BEACH BOYS lyrics - There's No Other (Like My Baby)

(P. Spector/L. Bates)



There's a story

I want you to know

About my baby

And how I love her so



Oh ohhhh, there's no other

Like my baby, oh no no no

Oh, there's no other

Don't mean maybe, oh no no no



Walkin' down the street

In a crowd

Lookin' at my baby

Feelin' so proud



Woah, there's no other

Like my baby, oh no no no

Woah, there's no other

Don't mean maybe, oh no no no



While I was dancing

My baby by my side

Whispered to her

Someday she'll be my bride



Woah, there's no other

Like my baby, oh no no no

Oh no

There's no other

Don't mean maybe, oh no no no



(Cindy.)

Cindy

Oh, not like my baby

Sherry

Oh, not like my baby

Wendy

Oh, not like my baby

Ooo-eee



Ooh ho, there's no other

Like my baby, oh no no no

No no

Oh, there's no other

Don't mean maybe, oh no no no



(Oh, that's just such a...)

(Wow, that was good.)

(That was really great.)

([...] I just love that song.)

(I thought it was really good.)

(Anybody have any cigarettes left?)

([...], Mike.)

Round...

BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - A Kid Again / I'm Five

(J. Melfi & R. Perry)



I wish I were a kid again

Doing what I did again

Here I make my bit again

To be a kid again

Once more through the door

Once more as before

Into a land where I leave cares behind

Please take me back

There are things I must find

Oh, I wish I were a kid again

Doing what I did again

A kid again...

...I'm five, I'm five

I am a big girl now, I'm five

I can dress myself, I don't need mom

To help me anymore

And when I sit in my father's chair

My feet can reach the floor

See that

I'm five, I'm five

I am a big girl now, I'm five

My mother doesn't spank me just

For going without a hat

She knows darn well I'd run away

'Cause I'm too old for that

What does she think I'm three?

Not me

What does she think I'm four?

I'm more than four

I'm even more than four and a half...

I'm five!

On April 24!

URIAH HEEP lyrics - Confession

(Hensley)



I'm so sorry for the things I've done

And the times it went a little wrong

Try to understand that I made my plans

With my love for you in mind



Sometimes you get the wrong idea

And I can't seem to make it clear

If my heart doesn't show it's cause I don't know

The best way to say I love you



Every living day you fill my heart

With a breath of spring

And I search the universe for some joy

That I can bring

To you



Every living day you fill my heart

With a breath of spring

And I search the universe for some joy

That I can bring

To you!

THE NIPS lyrics - Happy Song

Whenever I'm feeling scared now

'cause there's too many nicks in this town

Whenever I get so crazy

'cause everyone's putting me down

Whenever I'm feeling crazy

And everything is going wrong

I sing a happy song



Whenever I get so lonely

And I don't know what is going on

I get so so lonely that

I don't know what is going on

Whenever I'm feeling crazy

And everything's going wrong

I sing a happy song



And it goes like this

Bababa babababa

Bababa bababa

Bababa babababa

Bababa bababa

Bababa bababa



I go down to the centre of town

I wanna burn everything to the ground

My girlfriends always messing me 'round

Everybody thinks I'm a clown



But I don't care, I know what I am

Though I'm getting nowhere

I don't give a damn

So whenever I'm feeling lonely

And everything is going wrong

I sing a happy song



I go down to the centre of town

I wanna burn everything to the ground

My girlfriends always messing me 'round

Everybody thinks I'm a clown



I don't care, I know what I am

Though I'm getting nowhere

I don't give a damn

So whenever I'm feeling crazy

And everything is going wrong

I sing a happy song



And it goes like this

Bababa babababa

Bababa bababa

Bababa babababa

Bababa bababa

You gotta feel it now

Bababa babababa

Bababa bababa

Bababa babababa

Bababa bababa

Alright now

Bababa babababa

Bababa bababa

Bababa babababa

Bababa bababa

Sing a song now

Bababa bababa

I'm so happy now

Bababa bababa

BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD lyrics - Broken Arrow

The lights turned on and the curtain fell down

And when it was over it felt like a dream

They stood at the stage door and begged for a scream

The agents had paid for the black limousine

That waited outside in the rain

Did you see them, did you see them?



Did you see them in the river?

They were there to wave to you

Could you tell that the empty quivered

Brown skinned Indian on the banks

That were crowded and narrow

Held a broken arrow?



Eighteen years of American dream

He saw that his brother had sworn on the wall

He hung up his eyelids and ran down the hall

His mother had told him a trip was a fall

And don't mention babies at all

Did you see him, did you see him?



Did you see him in the river?

He was there to wave to you

Could you tell that the empty quivered

Brown skinned Indian on the banks

That were crowded and narrow

Held a broken arrow?



The streets were lined for the wedding parade

The Queen wore the white gloves, the county of song

The black covered caisson her horses had drawn

Protected her King from the sun rays of dawn

They married for peace and were gone

Did you see them, did you see them?



Did you see them in the river?

They were there to wave to you

Could you tell that the empty quivered

Brown skinned Indian on the banks

That were crowded and narrow

Held a broken arrow?

BARRY MANILOW lyrics - I Guess There Ain't No Santa Claus

I got evenings to spare

That nobody will share

I guess there ain't no Santa Claus

I don't flirt, I don't dance

Cause I don't get a chance

I guess there ain't no Santa Claus



Jingle Bells

Wedding Bells

Ring so merely

But Jingle Bells

And Wedding Bells

Never ring for me

Like the clock on the shelf

I hold hands with myself



I guess there ain't no Santa Claus

I got wine, I got cheer

I got nobody here

I guess there ain't no Santa Claus

Well they sure got it right

When they sing Silent Night

I guess there ain't no Santa Claus



Lovers walk, holding hands

Everywhere I go

Ready, set, here I stand

'neath the mistle toe

Sugarplums in my head

Only me in my bed



I guess there ain't no Santa Claus

My dad and mother

Told one another

They saw a future for me

But since I've grown up

I got to own up

It's not like they said it would be

Lovers walk, holding hands

Everywhere I go

Ready, set, here I stand

'neath the mistle toe

Sugarplums in my head

Only me in my bed



I guess there ain't no Santa Claus

I guess there ain't no Santa Claus

I guess

Guess there ain't no Santa Claus

PAT BOONE lyrics - Two Hearts

(Otis Williams and Henry Stone)



One heart's not enough, baby

Two hearts make you feel crazy

One kiss makes you feel so nice

Two kisses put you in paradise

Two hearts, two kisses make one love



Two hearts beat as one, dear

Two arms make me know that you care

I have plenty of lovin'

Two kisses hotter than an oven

Two hearts, two kisses make one love



Lovin' you, baby, is my desire

I know that you could set this world afire

A little spark is burnin' deep inside

Love should be made by two (hoop-de-doo-oo)



One heart's not enough, baby

Two hearts make you feel crazy

One kiss makes you feel so nice

Two kisses put you in paradise

Two hearts, two kisses make one love



[Instrumental Interlude]



Lovin' you, baby, is my desire

I know that you could set this world afire

A little spark is burnin' deep inside

Love should be made by two (hoop-de-doo-oo)



One heart's not enough, baby

Two hearts make you feel crazy

One kiss makes you feel so nice

Two kisses put you in paradise

Two hearts, two kisses make one love



Two hearts, two kisses make one love

PETER, PAUL AND MARY lyrics - State Of The Heart

(Noel Paul Stookey and Richard Kniss)



There are voices by my pillow, they remind me when to rise

And they tell me if my morning's under grey or sunny skies

And then they dedicate a record, "Our Love Will Never Die",

By a group that's been disbanded,

Though it's seldom mentioned why

But they say that there's a chip in every part

Of the state of the heart



Answering an ancient invitation

When's the proper time for us to go?

Turning from our separate destinations

Now we say goodbye, and now we say hello



But there are signs out on the highway, writing on the walls

Hungry eyes and always with a drifting dreamer falls

And we can watch it on our TV's, there's a dish out on the lawn

And we wonder where the valley of reality has gone

When they say they've got a tape on every part

Of the state of the heart.

BILLY IDOL lyrics - Don't Need A Gun

A human heart goes out tonight

Yes a red hot love on a red stop light



I see a scene so cold it echoes in blue

Oh those twisting tongues they are after you



Wop bop a lu bop Son you gotta move up

Flip flop fly

Lawdy Miss Clawdy

Of what a story dreams to buy

Don't need a knife to violate my life

It's all so insane



When the other man has none

You don't need a gun

Yes a Russian roulette no fun

I don't need a gun

I just need someone

I don't need a gun



Blood red lights a domination street yeah

Just need your love and I feel that heat yeah

You can drive me through

That red stop light

With a whiplash smile



Wop bop a lu bop Son you gotta move up

Flip flop fly

Lawdy Miss Clawdy

Of what a story dreams to buy

Don't need a knife to violate my life

It's all so insane



When the other man has none

You don't need a gun

Yes a Russian roulette no fun

I don't need a gun I just need someone

I won't need a gun Oh yeah



You will always be crying yeah

Oh you will always be dying

Oh you will always be dying



Elvis a fight the dying light

Johnny Ray he's always crying

Gene Vincent he cried who slapped John, John, John.



Yes and me, I'm movin', movin', movin', movin' on.

Yeah to be someone

I don't need a gun.

THE KINGSTON TRIO lyrics - Let's Get Together

(Chet Powers)



Love's is but the song we sing and fear's the way we die.

You can make the mountains ring or make the angels cry.

Know the dove is on the wing and you need not know why.



[Chorus:]

C'mon, people. Smile on your brother. Hey, let's get together and love one another right now.



Some may come and some may go and we shall surely pass.

When the one who left us here returns for us at last.

We are just a moment's sunlight, fading on the grass.



[Chorus]



If you hear the song I sing, then you must understand,

You hold the key to love and fear. It's in your tremb'ling hand.

One key unlocks them both, you know, and it's at your command.



[Chorus, repeat 1st verse and Chorus]

LINDA RONSTADT lyrics - Cry Me A River

(Arthur Hamilton)



Now you say you're lonely

You cried the whole night through

Well you can cry me a river

Cry me a river

I cried a river over you



Now you say you're sorry

For being so untrue

Well you can cry me a river

Cry me a river

I cried a river over you



You drove me

Nearly drove me

Out of my head

While you never shed a tear

Remember

I remember all that you said

Told me love was too plebeian

Told me you were through with me and

Now you say you love me

Well just to prove you do

Come on and cry me a river

Cry me a river

I cried a river over you



You drove me

Nearly drove me

Out of my head

While you never shared a tear

Remember

I remember all that you said

Told me love was too plebeian

Told me you were through with me and

Now you say you love me

Well just to prove you do

Come on and cry me a river

Cry me a river

I cried a river over you

I cried a river over you

I cried a river over you

THE HOLLIES lyrics - It's A Shame, It's A Game

(Hicks / Horton Jennings)



Out last night in my Sunday stripes

(You didn't want to know me)

At the Tuesday hop if I wear drainpipes

(You say you're gonna throw me)

The way you treat me's frightening

Strike me down like lightning

You know it's a shame (You didn't want to know)

It's a game (You say you're gonna throw me)



Out of town there's a story round

(You're staying with another)

At the picture show so the rumour goes

(You've been playing with my brother)

I don't know where I'm standing

You give me such a bumpy landing

It's a shame (You're staying with another)

It's a game (You've been playing with my brother)



Getting a bad reaction

Chasin' my girls best friend

Wonder should I walk on home

Plan a break-up or shake hands and make up again

It's a shame, it's a game (It's a a shame it's a game)

Wah ooh

It's a shame, it's a game

Wah ooh



I was out tonight looking wild in white

(You didn't want to know me)

Tried to catch a hint on how to jive

(You didn't want to show me)

I haven't got a dogs chance

If I don't know how to hip-dance

It's a shame (You didn't want to know me)

It's a game (You didn't want to show me)



Wah ooh

I really felt hip wearing my stripes, baby It's a shame

(It's a shame, it's a game)

And I really thought my drainpipes were outta sight Yeah, it's a shame

(It's a shame, it's a game)

Well, you struck me down like lightning, baby, I didn't know what to do, ha

(It's a shame, it's a game)

There's so many rumors about me and about you I don't know what to do

It's a shame I don't know what to do, baby I need ya

(It's a shame, it's a game)

Oh, c'mon and teach me how to hip jive

(It's a shame, it's a game)
