THE POGUES lyrics - Billy's Bones

(Shane MacGowan)



Billy ran around with the rare old crew

And he knew an Arsenal from Tottenham blue

We'd be a darn sight better of if we knew

Where Billy's bones are resting now

Billy saw a copper and he hit him in the knee

And he took him down from six foot to five foot three

Then he hit him fair and square in the do-re-mi

That copper won't be having any family



Hey Billy son where are you now

Don't you know that we need you now

With a ra-ta-ta and the old kow-tow

Where are Billy's bones resting now



Billy went away with the peace-keeping force

'Cause he liked a bloody good fight of course

Went away in an old khaki van to the banks of the river Jordan

Billy saw the Arabs and he had 'em on the run

When he got 'em in the range of his sub-machine gun

Then he had the Israelis in his sights, went a ra-ta-ta

And they ran like Shiites



One night Billy had a rare old time,

Laughing and singing on the Lebanon line

Came back to camp not looking too pretty

Never even got to see the Holy City

Now Billy's out there in the desert sun

And his mother cries when the morning comes

And there's mothers crying all over this world

For their poor dead darling boys and girls



Have a Billy holiday

Born on a Monday

Married on a Tuesday

Drunk on a Wednesday

Got plugged on a Thursday

Sick on a Friday

Died on a Saturday

Buried on a Sunday

ROGER TAYLOR lyrics - Loneliness

(Roger Taylor)



Loneliness... is the greatest curse

And loneliness... is hell on earth

They say it's all in the mind

Well I'm sure that's true

But knowing isn't a cure

It don't help me or you

You don't know what's it's like

When you're all on your own

You don't know what it's like

When you're really alone

But then it's all in the mind - loneliness?



Loneliness... can be so unkind

And loneliness... hope you never find it

They say it's all in the mind

See how it falls off the tongue

They say you reap what you sow

They must be putting us on



Cos you don't know what's it's like

'til you're all on your own

No you don't know what it's like

Until you're alone

Yeah you don't know what it's like

Wait 'til you're really alone

But then it's all in the mind... loneliness - loneliness -

Loneliness

JUDAS PRIEST lyrics - Red, White & Blue

When I'm far away

And I can't get through

Wherever I roam

Keeps bringing me back to you



Holding on to hope

There's no need to fear

Wherever I roam

This piece of home

Keeps telling you that I'm near



So lift up your heart

Cause the brave will always come through

While we're apart

We will raise the red, white and blue



When I stand alone

Without you by my side

I think of all

That you stand for

It fills me up with pride



Reaching out to you

Across mountains, sea and sky

I think of all

That you stand for

And hope will never die



Now I'm coming home again

I'm coming home to you

And as I roam

This piece of home

Has brought me back to you

DORO PESCH lyrics - Legends Never Die

(G. Simmons)



You were the god in the halls of time

You've seen them come and seen them go

Why can't you sleep at night

Maybe it's the glare of the light

Maybe it's something you'll never know



You heard the voice again last night

You're fooling yourself, this ain't no dream

Maybe it's not too late

You can still cheat the hand of fate

Just roll the dice and play the game



Legends never die

They keep the memory alive

Legends never die

They'll keep a part of you inside



You know you're not the way you seem

You're not a puppet on a string

Maybe it's not too late

You can still cheat the hand of fate

Just close your eyes and play the game



Tuesday morning New York Times

You passed away, you lost your mind, well. . .

We all try to play the game,

We all want to taste the fame

We'd sell our souls if the price is right



Legends never die

They keep the memory alive

Legends never die

They'll keep a part of you inside

REBA MCENTIRE lyrics - I'd Rather Ride Around With You

(Mark D. Sanders/Tim Nichols)



My cousin's gettin' married at the Methodist church

That's why I stayed home from work

I'm supposed to hold the flowers

When the new bride kisses the groom

That's what I'm supposed to do

So what are we doin' with the windows rolled down

Twenty five passionate miles from town

I love her like a sister baby but to tell the truth

I'd rather ride around with you



The guy she's gonna marry's got money to burn

His daddy's a partner in some big law firm

Yeah that's how they're goin'

To Hawaii on their honeymoon

First class to Honolulu

She ain't never even set foot on a jet

I'm a little bit jealous I confess

I'd like to fly to Hawaii

But honey if I had to choose

I'd rather ride around with you



I don't care where this road goes

No I don't wanna turn around

Let go of the wheel feel the wind blow

Don't even think about slowin' down



They're tyin' tin cans to the back of the car

Wonderin' where in the world we are

The preacher's done prayin'

And the couple's done sayin' I do

That could be me and you

There's way too many decisions to make

The length of the dress

The layers on the cake

One of these days I might get married too

But I'd rather ride around with you



I'd rather ride around with you

I'd rather ride around with you

FRANK SINATRA lyrics - Forget Domani

(N. Newell, R. Ortolani)



[Recorded May 6, 1965, Hollywood]



Let's forget about tomorrow

Let's forget about tomorrow

Let's forget about tomorrow for tomorrow never comes



Domani, forget domani

Let's live for now and anyhow who needs domani?

The moonlight, let's share the moonlight

Perhaps together we will never be again



Ah, che luna, oh, che mare

With such a moon and such a sea and you and me

I get so dizzy when you're standing near

It's not the music that you hear

My heart is beating like a jungle drum

Let's take the minutes as they speed away

And hope it's true what people say

"When you're in love, tomorrow never comes"



Let's forget about tomorrow

Let's forget about tomorrow

Let's forget about tomorrow for tomorrow never comes



Let's forget about tomorrow

Let's forget about tomorrow

Let's forget about tomorrow for tomorrow never comes



Domani,* madonne *, domani!

With such a moon and such a sea and you and me

Let's take the minutes as they speed away

And hope it's true what people say

"When you're in love tomorrow never comes"



Let's forget about tomorrow

Let's forget about tomorrow

Let's forget about tomorrow for tomorrow never comes



Oh, let's forget about tomorrow

Let's forget about tomorrow

Let's forget about tomorrow for tomorrow never comes



Oh, let's forget about tomorrow

PULP lyrics - Sylvia

You look just like Sylvia:

Well you look like her to me -

The way she wore her hair then.

Oh, he way she used to be.

I've not seen her for a long time

Though I've heard she's still around.

Her father's living with some girl

Who's a year younger than her.

She's living in the country now yeah.

Oh, she's trying to get better.

Her beauty was her only crime.

Yeah, I remember Sylvia.



So keep believing

And do what you do,

I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better.

And please stop asking what it's got to do with you.

Oh, keep believing cos you know that you deserve better.



Who's this man you're talking to?

Can't you see what he wants to do?

He thinks if he stands near enough then he will look as good as you.

Oh, he don't care about your problems.

He just wants to show his friends.

I guess I'm just the same as him -

I just didn't know it then.

I never understood you really

And I know it's too late now.

You didn't ask to be that way.

Oh, I'm sorry Sylvia.



So keep believing

And do what you do,

I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better.

And please stop asking what it's got to do with you.

Oh, keep believing cos you know that you deserve better.

Yeah you know that you deserve better.

Oh Sylvia.

FREDDIE MERCURY lyrics - Guide Me Home

(Freddie Mercury and Mike Moran)



Now the wind has lost my sail

Now the scent has left my trail

Who will find me, take care and side with me

Guide me back safely to my home

Where I belong, once more



Where is my star in heaven's bough

Where is my strength, I need it now

Who can save me, lead me to my destiny

Guide me back safely to my home

Where I belong, once more



Who will find me, take care and side with me

Guide me back safely to my home

Where I belong, once more



How can I go on?

How can I go on this way

VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR lyrics - Meurglys III, The Songwriter's Guild

These days I mainly just talk to plants and dogs -

all human contact seems painful, risky, odd;

so I stay acting god in my own universe

where I trade cigarettes in return for songs.

The deal's made harder the longer I go on:

I find me gone from all but secret languages.



If only I could phrase satisfactory words

in conversation, to make my passion heard...

If only...



Meurglys III, he's my friend,

the only one that I can trust

to let it be without pretence

- there's no-one else.

It's killing me, but in the end

there's no-one else I know is true,

there's none in all the masks of men,

there's nothing else

but my guitar...

I suppose he'll have to do.



Talking in tongues is easy when you know how,

quite pleasing, but still nothing works out right.

Pressurised lungs, heart bleeding,

you'd better slow down

and show that you can make it through the night.

However dark it seems,

the present is just the present,

beyond it no further darness lies concealed

and through these desperate dreams,

this longing for friends and comfort,

you know that in the end all will be revealed.

When no more plants or dogs

or rooms are there to hear you,

and no-one is left near you, then you'll see:

in the end there's only you and Meurglys III,

and this is just what you chose to be,

fool!



Though I know all this is just escape,

I run because I don't know where the prison lies.

In songs like this I can bear the weight...

I'm running still,

I shall until,

one day, I hope that I'll arrive.

BONNIE RAITT lyrics - Guilty

Yeah baby, I've been drinking,

And I shouldn't come by I know

But I found myself in trouble darling,

And I had nowhere else to go



Got some whiskey from a bar man,

Got some cocaine from a friend

I just had to keep on moving,

Till I was back in your arms again



Well I'm guilty, yeah I'm guilty,

I'll be guilty for the rest of my life

How come I never do,

What I'm supposed to do

How come nothing that I try to do ever turns out right



Well you know how it is with me baby,

You know I just can't stand myself

It takes a whole lot of medicine,

For me to pretend to be somebody else.

ARCADIA lyrics - The Flame

(LeBon-Rhodes-Taylor)



I could feel the breeze blowing chance

Blowing through my doorway

Warm and restless just as you walked by

Inside of smoky halls a circle drawn

And voices call

To raise some magic wind in my world

Strange coincidence each time you look my way

This sinking feeling scares me

Know my weakness call it dejavu

Never puy my trust in fate suprises do arrive so late

Why should I be suprised by you



Straight to the heart straight for this precious shining

How do you dare step into my flame

One from the heart, one for this precious shining

How can you steel my flame



Sometimes cards are drawn and the tables turn

The waiting game is over

Take this dealers hand and steal away the dawn

Don't give me any chance to wander back from this innocence

Don't give me any chances at all

THE STEVE MILLER BAND lyrics - Wide River

(Chris McCarty and Steve Miller)



Wide river

She opens her mouth to the sea

Singing dear, dear ocean, now

Here is a kiss from me



And she runs like a river to the setting sun

She runs like a river that has never been won

She runs like a river that will always be free



Wide river

Carry me back home

To the place I love

That I call my own



And we can run like a river to the setting sun

Run like a river that has never been won

Run like a river that will always be free



Wide river

Do you remember me

It was not so long ago

That you set me free



And now I run like a river to the setting sun

I run like a river that has never been won

I run like a river that will always be free



Come on baby

Let's run in circles

Come on darling let's circle each other

And find the love, all the love that we need



Come on baby, let's circle each other

Well, we can do, do for each other

I'll do for you, and you'll do for me



And we can run like a river to the setting sun

Run like a river that has never been won

Run like a river that will always be free



And we can run like a river to the setting sun

Run like a river that has never been won

Run like a river that will always be free



And we can run like a river to the setting sun

Run like a river that has never been won

Run like a river that will always be free

KING CRIMSON lyrics - Model Man

(Belew/King Crimson)



look at the signs

look at the symptoms

look at the slight

calm before the storm

I feel the silence

I feel the signals

I feel the strain

tension in my head

well, what more can be said...



not a model man

not a saviour or a saint

imperfect in a word

make no mistake

but I

give you everything I have

take me as I am...

ART GARFUNKEL lyrics - Someone Else

(Jimmy Webb)



It's someone else,

I've known it all the time

Known that you're not mine,

And will never be

It's Someone Else,

I saw you out last night

Holding him so tight,

And it's Someone Else.



No I really can't hate him,

For what's happening to me

Will happen to him -

That's a certainty.



And he'll learn

There's always someone else

Like I learned myself,

Always Someone Else

Always Someone Else

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - Try It On Your Piano

[1st verse:]

Benjamin Manner played a grand piano

And he cert'nly played it fine

Played the piano all the time

Like a reg'lar Rubinstein

Sunday he called around to see Miss Lucy Brown

And said "My darling pet

I have found a new way to make love

That hasn't been discovered yet

Won't you let me show you how?"

But Miss Lucy cried "not now":



[Refrain:]

Try it on your piano grand

I don't care to understand

B or I flat, C or Y flat

Try it hon' but not in my flat

While I don't doubt that what you say is true

I'm not taking chances with some love that's new

So Mister Manner, try it on your piano

But you can't try it on me



[2nd verse:]

Benjamin Manner sold his grand piano

And became a doctor fair

One who cures your pain and care

He was known most ev'rywhere

Lucy took sick one day, he called around to say

"I've brought with me a pill

It's a new discovery of my own

That surely ought to cure or kill

It has never yet been tried"

But Miss Lucy loudly cried:



[2nd refrain:]

Try it on your piano grand

I don't care to understand

B or I flat

C or Y flat

Try it hon' but not in my flat

Give me Peruna for my ev'ry pain

For he who takes that will live to take again

So try your brand up on a baby grand

Because you can't try it on me

FREDDIE MERCURY lyrics - Foolin' Around

(Freddie Mercury)



You're so beautiful, you just lay it on me

Foxy lady you really are the greatest show in town

You want to play, you wanna eat your cake and have it your way

You've got it easy and you don't give a damn

Foolin' around, you just keep foolin' around with me

Keep on foolin' around with me baby



Walking down the street, people watching closely

Such a tease, you can turn on any man you want

You masquerade, you're the catch of the season every night and day

You you you don't have any time for me

You just keep foolin' around with me - yes you do that to me



Fooling around - everywhere I go you're the only only only sexy lady

Fooling around, all you do is keep me hanging around

You're really so hard to please

You've gotta really watch that baby! (yeah yeah)



You just you just, fooling around with me

You just you just, fooling around with me

You keep fooling, you keep fooling

Fooling...



Want to play, but you always want it all your own way

You've got it easy but you don't give a damn

Fooling around, you just keep fooling around with me

Just keep fooling around with me, yeah



I'm a fool fool fool fool for you baby, keep fooling around (yeah yeah)

I'm a fool fool fool for you sexy baby, keep fooling around

I'm a fool fool fool fool for you baby, keep fooling around

JAN BRADLEY lyrics - Mama Didn't Lie

(Curtis Mayfield)



Mama didn't lie, she didn't lie.

Mama didn't lie, she didn't lie.

Here comes that boy and his friends,

Making eyes at me again.

Do they all think that I'm a toy,

To be played with by every boy?

Well, they're wrong to think I

Will be caught by the wink of an eye.

My mama didn't lie. (Mama didn't lie.) She didn't lie.



The greatest pastime in this man's world

Is playin' tricks on every young girl.

To have one is how they get their kick.

But not me because I know their trick.

And they're wrong to think I

Will be caught by the wink of an eye.

My mama didn't lie. (Mama didn't lie.) She didn't lie.

Mama didn't lie, she didn't lie.



I remember what my mama told me:

She said, "Girl stay in your class,

You got a whole lot of growin' and a'learnin' to do

Girl don't cha go so fast.



The greatest pastime in this man's world

Is playin' tricks on every young girl.

To have one is how they get their kick.

But no me because I know their trick.

And they're wrong to think I

Will be caught by the wink of an eye.

My mama didn't lie. (Mama didn't lie) She didn't lie.

Mama didn't lie, she didn't lie.

Mama didn't...

SAMMY DAVIS JR. lyrics - Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

Oh, the weather outside is frightful

But the fire is so delightful

And since we've no place to go

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow



It doesn't show signs of stopping

And I brought some corn for popping

The lights are turned way down low

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow



When we finally kiss good-night

How I'll hate going out in the storm

But if you really hold me tight

All the way home I'll be warm



The fire is slowly dying

And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing

But as long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow



When we finally kiss good-night

How I'll hate going out in the storm

But if you really hold me tight

All the way home I'll be warm



The fire is slowly dying

And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing

But as long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS lyrics - Blues For Meister

It's always half and half

I'm happy and I'm sad

Everything that's beautiful

Always kills me too

The highest I get up

Is the deepest I get down

You're up there with your life

That's why I gotta shout, shout,

...And then gotta shout, shout



Blues for Meister

You sweet little thing

Blues for Meister

I'm so sad I gotta sing

A cozy little kitty up

sittin' on the couch

Oh, kitty cat, oh, baby

I really miss you now

Well have some respect

For my cat

He got squashed by the wheel

Of a Cadillac

Well, me and my pussy

We lost our flow

Well, goodbye my little calico



Your food's still in the cupboard

Hangin' in its can

You used to love to eat it

Down

I'll always love you Meister

You were so good to me

There's nothing like you nowhere

As far as I can see

THE WHO lyrics - Trilby's Piano

Your mother loves her brother

But her brother loves his lover

And his lover is my cover

My one and only other - my angel



My angel Trilby

Who said I will be

What I should still be

Genius would fill me - she loves Hymie



Only one Hymie

No one else on earth could ever blind me - like this

Or even find me - such bliss

If you were gone

You'd still be here



Only one Hymie

Why can't they see that life excites me

This boy ignites me

His family fights me

But he's still here



Only one Hymie...

AC/DC lyrics - Goodbye & Good Riddance To Bad Luck

(A. Young / M. Young)



Gettin' bombed out on booze

Got nothin' to lose

Run outta money

Disposable blues

Sleazy hotels like livin' in hell

The girls on the hustle with nothin' to sell

Want something for nothing it's always the same

Keep pushin' an' shovin' and I'm down on the game

Always in trouble

Forever detained

Goodbye goodbye goodbye and good riddance to bad luck



Well spread out the news there's a free man loose

Back out of jail and chasin' some floos'

Bad luck has changed

Broken the chains

Laid out a claim for monetary gains

Wantin' what's coming all for the take

Freedom for lovin' an lust for the taste

Eyes are wide open

Wild to the game

Goodbye goodbye goodbye and good riddance to bad luck

Goodbye and good riddance to bad luck



Goodbye and good riddance to bad luck

Bad luck

Bad luck

Goodbye and good riddance to bad luck

Goodbye good riddance to bad luck

Broken the chains of bad luck

Bye bye bye bad luck

Thrown of the chains of bad luck



Goodbye good riddance

To bad luck

VINCE GILL lyrics - I Never Knew Lonely

(Vince Gill)



No other lover ever really cared

When I've reached out for you you've always been there

Now I'm so far away and baby I'm scared

I never knew lonely til you



You are my rock and the strength I need

To keep me sane in this life that I lead

Now I'm not with you and my broken heart bleeds

I never knew lonely til you



I never knew lonely could be so blue

I never knew lonely could tear you in two

I never loved someone like I love you

I never knew lonely til you



I can't make up for the times I've been gone

But I'll prove I love you in the words of this song

Back in your arms girl it's where I belong

I never knew lonely til you



I never knew lonely could be so blue

I never knew lonely could tear you in two

I never loved someone like I love you

I never knew lonely til you

TODD RUNDGREN lyrics - Hello, It's Me

Hello, it's me

I've thought about us for a long, long time

Maybe I think too much but something's wrong

There's something here that doesn't last too long

Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine



Seeing you

Or seeing anything as much as I do you

I take for granted that you're always there

I take for granted that you just don't care

Sometimes I can't help seeing all the way through



It's important to me

That you know you are free

'Cause I never want to make you change for me



Think of me

You know that I'd be with you if I could

I'll come around to see you once in a while

Or if I ever need a reason to smile

And spend the night if you think I should



It's important to me

That you know you are free

'Cause I never want to make you change for me



Think of me

You know that I'd be with you if I could

I'll come around to see you once in a while

Or if I ever need a reason to smile

And spend the night if you think I should



Think of me

Think of me

Think of me

GEORGE HARRISON lyrics - Art Of Dying

There'll come a time when all of us must leave here

Then nothing sister Mary can do

Will keep me here with you

As nothing in this life that I've been trying

Could equal or surpass the art of dying

Do you believe me?



There'll come a time when all your hopes are fading

When things that seemed so very plain

Become an awful pain

Searching for the truth among the lying

And answered when you've learned the art of dying



But you're still with me

But if you want it

Then you must find it

But when you have it

There'll be no need for it



There'll come a time when most of us return here

Brought back by our desire to be

A perfect entity

Living through a million years of crying

Until you've realized the Art of Dying

Do you believe me?

BONNIE TYLER lyrics - Let The Show Begin

(Ronnie Scott & Steve Wolfe)



I'm a woman

And here we are

Locked together

Living on this lonely star

But we can stay here

Like the mountains do

Like the leaves we tumble

But baby before we do

Before we do



Let the show begin

Let the orchestra play

Let the dancers in

And we'll dance the night away

Let the show begin

Get me lost in your kiss

If we don't remember anything

We'll sure remember this

If we don't remember anything

We'll sure remember this



Who am I, love

Who are you

Locked together

Wondering where we're going to

An old man told me

How his life just flew

And the years went quickly

But baby before they do

Before they do



Let the show begin

Let the carnival start

Let the dancers in

Take your partners to your hearts

Let the show begin

Let the orchestra play

If we don't remember anything

We won't forget today

If we don't remember anything

We won't forget today



Let the show begin

Get me lost in your kiss

If we don't remember anything

We'll sure remember this

If we don't remember anything

We'll sure remember this

CHRIS ISAAK lyrics - Always Got Tonight

Here's to good times, baby now it's up to you

Tell me darlin what it is you wanna do

If you want me, you know I could be with you

We always got tonight, always got tonight



You say you're happy that you found somebody new

Now you're leaving, gone for a day or two

Think it over, I can make it up to you

We always got tonight



Ain't no stars up in the sky, I wonder why I feel so blue

Over you

It doesn't matter what you say, I feel this way

Feel like it's true, when I look at you



Take it easy, tell him that you'll telephone

If he calls back, just pretend you're all alone

If you love me, then it is really wrong

We always got tonight, always got tonight



There ain't a cloud up in the sky

I don't know why I feel so blue

Without you

You tell me now you want me too

It doesn't matter what you do

I'm here for you

Ain't no stars up in the sky, now you're gone

Doesn't matter what you do on your own

You told me once that you were mine, you were wrong

I'm alone



Skip the bad times, tell me how it's gonna be

What we do now, really isn't up to me

Let me come by, this much I can guarantee

We always got tonight, always got tonight

Ain't no stars up in the sky, I wonder why I get so blue

Over you

Doesn't matter what you say, I feel this way

Feel like it's true, when I look at you

Doesn't matter what you say, now you're gone

Doesn't matter what you do on your own

I told you once that you were mine, I was wrong

Now you're gone

Always got tonight, we always got tonight baby

Oooooh, yeah

STING lyrics - Perfect Love Gone Wrong

I've had a question that's been preying on my mind for some time

I won't be wagging my tail for one good reason

It has to be a crime



This dog house never was the place for me,

Runner up and second best just ain't my pedigree

I was so happy, just the two of us

Until this alpha male

Turned up in the January sale



He won't love you

Like I love you

It won't be long now before that puppy goes astray

And what I like about this guy the most

He'd be my favourite lamp post

Devil take the hindmost



Je sais que c'est dur, mais il faut se faire au changement, tu vois

J'ai neglige le primordial pendant trop longtemps crois moi

Je suis consciente, je vois bien que tu souffres, mais? a s'attenuera

Car c'est d'un homme plus d'un chien don't j'ai besoin pres de moi

Cesse donc de grogner, mon choix est fait c'est comme? a

N'en fait pas trop, ton attitude risque de t'eloigner de moi

Faut que tu comprennes, puisque tu dis m'aimer tant que? a

Desormais nous sommes trois, lui toi et moi



It's a shaggy kind of story

Would I tell you if I thought it was a lie?

But when the cat's away the mouse will play,

I wouldn't dish around here

There's something fishy 'round here



I howl all night and I sleep all day

It takes more than biscuit, baby, to chase these blues away

I've got a long enough leash

I could almost hang myself

It's a dogs life loving you baby

But you love someone else

Now he's moved by basket

I'd like to put him in a casket

I'll wear my best collar to his funeral



Ta mauvaise foi, j'aimerais bien que? a s'arrete

Me separer de toi, aujourd'hui? a trotte dans ma tete

Moi non, j'en peux plus, tu n'est q'un chien, c'est trop bete

La situation m'avait pourtant l'air d'etre des pius nette

C'est clair, que je l'aime c'est un fait, ton ego? sme m'inquiete

Apres toutes ces soirees passees seuis en tete a tete

Chaque chose a une fin, et c'est la fin de la fete

Pour toi, car bient? t il n'y aura plus que lui et moi, lui et moi.



To have found this perfect life

And a perfect love so strong

Well there can't be nothing worse

Than a perfect love gone wrong



You said I wasn't just your Christmas toy

I'd always be your boy

I'd be your faithful companion

And I would follow you through every thick and thin

Don't need nobody else

And we don't need him

THE BEATLES lyrics - P. S. I Love You

(Lennon/McCartney)



As I write this letter

Send my love to you

Remember that I'll always

Be in love with you



Treasure these few words till we're together

Keep all my love forever

P. S. I love you

You, you, you



I'll be coming home again to you, love

And till the day I do, love

P. S. I love you

You, you, you



As I write this letter

Send my love to you

Remember that I'll always

Be in love with you



Treasure these few words till we're together

Keep all my love forever

P. S. I love you

You, you, you



As I write this letter (Oh)

Send my love to you (You know I want you to)

Remember that I'll always (Yeah)

Be in love with you



I'll be coming home again to you, love

And till the day I do, love

P. S. I love you

You, you, you

You, you, you

I love you

GREG BROWN lyrics - 44 & 66

44's a BMW; 66's a Yamaha,

44's just like mother; 66 owns Omaha.

44 & 66; 66 & 44,

What a piston; what a bore,

66 & 44.



66's a long old jet plane, goin' to a folk festival,

44's a hot jazz player, yeah; and his belly's never full.

44 & 66; 66 & 44,

You got to push what you can't pull,

66 & 44.



66 is modern poetry; 44 is modern art,

66 ain't got no mystery; 44 ain't got no heart.

44 & 66; 66 & 44,

Flick your Bic at the right door,

66 & 44.



66's a brand new baby bouncin' on his grandma's knee,

44's a long old coffin, open arms for you and me.

44 & 66; 66 & 44,

Say goodbye and close the door,

66 & 44.



66 is Waylon Jennings, and he can't find his cologne,

44 is Nelson Eddy, and he's crying on the telephone.

44 & 66; 66 & 44,

Outlaws don't dig to be poor, no,

66 & 44.



66 is just a number; 44 is just a gig,

66, apprentice plumber; 44 still wants to make it big.

44 & 66; 66 & 44,

Add 'em up, you get some more,

66 & 44.

TOAD THE WET SPROCKET lyrics - Unquiet

I am taught but I

Never learn a thing

I'm not deaf but I

Can't hear everything

A quiet world

Unquiet



I am strong but I

Never move a thing

I have words but I

Lack the voice to sing

A quiet world

Unquiet



I would sell the world

Would I...

I am fast but I

Never move at all

I have sight but I

Never choose to show

A quiet world

Unquiet



I would sell the world

Would I...

A quiet world

Unquiet

BBM lyrics - Waiting In The Wings

(Gary Moore/Jack Bruce)



She was standing in the dark

Waiting in the wings

Just around the next dream

She was holding all the keys

To set my heart free

Behind the shadows of love.

From the distance I could see

Her standing alone

Shine like a jewel in the night

Hidden from the eyes

A theif of the soul

Behind the shadows of love.

Set me on fire with the stoires you tell

Drown in the ocean of dreams

Close to the flame on wings of desire

Nothing's what it seems

She was waiting oustside with arms open wide

Ready to break my heart's fall

Oh the lighting in her eyes

I learned how to fly

Behind the shadow of love.

Set me on fire with the stoires you tell

Drown in the ocean of dreams

Close to the flame on wings of desire

Nothing's what it seems

RANDY NEWMAN lyrics - I'm Your Puppet

[Bobby Womack]



Pull the string and I'll wink at you, I'm your puppet

I'll do funny things if you want me to, I'm your puppet



I'll be yours to have and to hold

Darling you've got full control of your puppet



Pull another string and I'll kiss your lips, I'm your puppet

Snap your finger and I'll turn you some flips, I'm your puppet



Your every wish is my command

All you gotta do is wiggle your little hand

I'm your puppet, I'm your puppet



I'm just a toy, just a funny boy

That makes you laugh when you're blue

I'll be wonderful, do just what I'm told

I'll do anything for you

I'm your puppet, I'm your puppet



Pull them little strings and I'll sing you a song, I'm your puppet

Make me do right or make me do wrong, I'm your puppet



Treat me good and I'll do anything

I'm just a puppet an you hold my string, I'm your puppet

Yeah, I'm your puppet



Walking, talking, living, loving puppet

I'm hanging on a string girl, I'll do anything now



I'm a walking, talking, living, loving puppet, and I love you



I'm a smiling happy face when you want me to

Even make you happy when you're feeling blue

THE STEVE MILLER BAND lyrics - Met A Little Girl On Her Way To School

(Jimmy Reed)



[Performed by the Goldberg-Miller Blues Band (1965)]



I met a little girl

She on her way to school

I met a little girl

She ain't nobody's fool

Well, go on baby

And I'll see you on your way to school



Got the readin' and a writin' and arithmetic

Know those teachers 'bout to make you sick

Now go on baby, don't be nobody's fool

I'll see you in the mornin' on your way to school



Well, you know they got you standin' at the head of your class

And the kids don't like it, try to make you bad

Go on baby, don't be nobody's fool

I'll see you in the mornin' on your way to school



Well, I met a little girl

She on her way to school

I met a little girl

She ain't nobody's fool

Well, go on baby

And I'll see you on your way to school

SEALS & CROFTS lyrics - Red Long Ago

(James Seals, Bob Gundry and Kelley McKinney)



Sand, the ocean breezes blow. Red in the sun, red so long ago.

Torn by the waves, blown by the wind.

Gone like the tide, until we meet again, again, again.



We are a dream, a vision, a story yet to be told.

We are a theme, love was the writer, red long ago.

You were the sea and I was the river, flowing to you.

Hoping that you might still remember, red long ago.

You were my wings for I was, just learning to fly.

Red was the sky, love was the reason we went too high.

We shared the joy now but, we feel the pain.

Love was the valley we lost our way in, red long ago.



Sand, the ocean breezes blow. Red in the sun, red so long ago.

Memories of silver, heartaches of gold.

These are the treasures of red long ago, long ago, long ago.



Ooooo, you were the sea and I was the river, flowing to you.

Knowing that you might still remember, red long ago.

VAN HALEN lyrics - Girl Gone Bad

Ah, lazy eyes in the summer heat

Fresh from out of town

Now she's working on the street

Shake them poor boys down

Woo (Girl) Woo, Girl gone bad, ye-ah

(Girl) Girl gone bad



Found that girl with a lonesome john

When she should have been with me

Guess that woman fall in love

She don't work for free



(Girl) Girl gone bad

Yeah

Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!



Ooooooo-oh!

Ooooo-oh!

Oh!



(Guitar Solo)



Mmmmmmmmmmm...

Ah



(Girl) Girl gone bad

Whoa! (Girl) Girl gone bad

Ow! Yeah (Girl) Girl, ooh, ooh, ooh

(Girl) Ooooh. Oh! Oh! Yeah!

Aw! (Girl) Say. Say. Uh!

VINCE GILL lyrics - Hey God

(Vince Gill)



Hey God I just lost a dear old friend

He God I hope he's in your angel bad

Hey God you know he believed in you

Just help us understand why you do the things you do



He God send me down some comfort please

Hey God I'll be down here on my knees

Hey God will we ever comprehend

The forgiveness and grace that lies waiting in the end



Oh there's anger and tears

For all of the years that your children won't have you to hold

Oh my heart has been broken

The angels have spoken still I wish I could watch you grow old



Hey God I know he didn't die alone

Hey God tell my old friend welcome home

Hey God please hear me when I pray

Pray for a little peace 'til we meet again someday

Pray for a little peace 'til we meet again someday

MORRISSEY lyrics - It's Not Your Birthday Anymore

Your voice it might say "no"

But the heart has a will of its own

Your voice it might say "no"

But the heart has a heart of its own

It's not your birthday anymore

There's no need to be kind to you

And the will to see you smile and belong has now gone

It's not your birthday anymore

Did you really think we meant

All those syrupy, sentimental things

That we said?



It cannot be given

And so it must be taken

It cannot be given

And so it must be taken



All of the gifts that they gave can't compare in any way

To the love I am now giving to you

Right here, right now on the floor

All of the gifts that they gave can't compare in any way

To the love I am now giving to you

Right here, right now on the floor



It's not your birthday anymore

There's no need to be kind to you

And the will to see you smile and belong has now gone

It's not your birthday anymore

Did you really think we meant

All those syrupy, sentimental things

That we said yesterday?

THE HILLTOPPERS lyrics - The Joker (That's What They Call Me)

The joker is what they call me

My friends say Ive never seemed so gay

But if they only knew how much I cry for you

The laughter would surely fade away



The joker is always laughing

And so he's the gayest guy in town

He plays a winning part while memories crush his heart

Yet he goes on laughing like a clown



I tried so hard to pretend dear

That losing you meant nothing to me

But 'til you're mine once again dear

Make believe is all my life will be

Ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha



The joker, though he seems happy

Because you have found that someone new

But somewhere deep inside beneath his strange disguise

The joker is crying over you



Oh-oh-oh-oh - o - o - oho

That losing you meant something to me

Oh-oh-oh-oh - o - o - oho

Make believe is all my life will be

Ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha

SONNY AND CHER lyrics - Little Man

Little man

When you stand by my side

Then I know I don't have

To hide from anyone

And I pray that

We'll stay just that way

Till the day comes along

When we catch the sun



[Chorus:]

Little girl you're runnin'

Come catch my hand I'm near you

Little girl you're singin'

Come closer to me I hear you



You're growin' old

My mother's cold

Now you've learned

What it meant to be mature

There's no such place

As make believe

But when I look at your face

I'm not so sure



[Chorus]



You and me is what I see

And that's the way

It's gonna stay

And it will always be

So little man, please understand

In this world with all its land

You're all I see



[Chorus x2]

R. E.M. lyrics - She Just Wants To Be

It's not that she walked away

Her world got smaller

All the usual places

The same destinations

Only something's changed.



It's not that she wasn't rewarded

With pomegranate afternoons

And Mingus, Chet Baker and chess

It's not stampede and fortune

Of prim affectations

She's off on a riot(?)

And she knows now

Is greater than the whole

Of the past

Is greater and now she knows



She just wants to be somewhere

She just wants to be.

She just wants to be somewhere

She just wants to be.



It's not that the transparency

Of her earlier incarnations

Now looked back on

Were rich and loaded

With beautiful vulnerability

But now she knows

Now is greater

And she knows that.



She just wants to be somewhere

She just wants to be

She just wants to be somewhere

She just wants to be.



Now is greater

Now is greater

And she knows that.



She just wants to be somewhere

She just wants to be.

She just wants to be somewhere

She just wants to be.



She just wants to be somewhere

She just wants to be.

She just wants to be somewhere

She just wants to be.



It's not like if angels

Could truly look down

Stir up the trappings

A light on the ground

Remind us of what, when, why or who

The how's up to us

Me and you

And now is greater than the whole

Of the past

Is greater and now she knows that.



Now she knows.

CHICAGO lyrics - It Better End Soon 2nd Movement

Can't stand it no more

The people dying

Crying for help for so many years

But nobody hears

Better end soon my friend

It better end soon my friend



Can't take it no more

The people hating

Hurting their brothers

They don't understand

They can't understand

Better end soon my friend

It better end soon



Hey, everybody

Won't you just look around

Can't anybody see?

Just what's going down

Can't you take the time?

Just to feel

Just to feel what is real

If you do

Then you'll see that we got a raw deal

They're killing everybody

I wish it weren't true

They say we got to make war

Or the economy will fall

But if we don't stop

We won't be around no more

They're ruining this world

For you and me

The big heads of state

Won't let us be free

They made the rules once

But it didn't work out

Now we must try again

Before they kill us off

No more dying!

No more killing

No more dying

No more fighting

We don't want to die

No, we don't want to die

Please let's change it all

Please let's make it all

Good for the present

And better for the future

Let's just love one another

Let's show peace for each other

We can make it happen

Let's just make it happen

We can change this world

Please let's change this world

Please let's make it happen for our children

For our women

Change the world

Please make it happen

Come on

Come on

Please

Come on

It's up to me

It's up to you

So let's do it now

Yeah

Do it now



Can't stand it no more

The people cheating

Burning each other

They know it ain't right

How can it be right

Better end soon my friend

It better end soon my friend

SIMPLY RED lyrics - Positively 4th Street

You got a lotta nerve

To say you are my friend

When I was down

You just stood there grinning



You got a lotta nerve

To say you gotta helping hand to lend

You just want to be on

The side that's winning



You say I let you down

You know it's not like that

If you're so hurt

Why then don't you show it



You say you lost your faith

But that's not where it's at

You had no faith to lose

And you know it



I know the reason

That you talk behind my back

I used to be among the crowd

You're in with



Do you take me for such a fool

To think I'd make contact

With the one who tries to hide

What he don't know to begin with



You see me on the street

You always act surprised

You say, "How are you?" "Good luck"

But you don't mean it



When you know as well as me

You'd rather see me paralyzed

Why don't you just come out once

And scream it



No, I do not feel that good

When I see the heartbreaks you embrace

If I was a master thief

Perhaps I'd rob them



And now I know you're dissatisfied

With your position and your place

Don't you understand

It's not my problem



I wish that for just one time

You could stand inside my shoes

And just for that one moment

I could be you



Yes, I wish that for just one time

You could stand inside my shoes

You'd know what a drag it is

To see you

GREG BROWN lyrics - Cold & Dark & Wet

I fell in love like a drunk in a pond.

That twisted gal of whom I was fond,

She found a new man on the internet.

Wham I'm spam and it's cold and dark and wet.



Tell me what is a fella supposed to do

When a car costs what a house used to

And a house is a pile of chipboard, paint, and debt.

I'm at the city limits and it's cold and dark and wet



Big rig rolling over me in a blizzard -

I'm living on beans and chicken gizzards.

One day I was young, the next day I was old.

Late November, it's wet and dark and cold.



Jobs, I guess they're like wild geese -

They all went flying overseas.

I'm standing in the rain smoking my last cigarette.

Morning in America is cold and dark and wet.



Christmas lights are going up,

I could use a little joy juice in my cup.

Life is not a walk across the park,

Not when it's wet and cold and dark.

HERMAN'S HERMITS lyrics - A Must To Avoid

(Barri / Sloan)



She's a must to avoid

A complete impossibility

She's a must to avoid

Better take it from me



You'll think she's a prize at the start

But take my advice, play it smart

She's nothin' but trouble

Better cut out on the double

Before she gets into your heart



She's a must to avoid

A complete impossibility

She's a must to avoid

Better take it from me



When you stare into her pretty blue eyes

There's no way to see through her disguise

But don't try to love her 'cause you'll quickly discover

You're trapped in the web of her lies



She's a must to avoid

A complete impossibility

She's a must to avoid

Better take it from me



Her lips look inviting it's true

But lots of other guys have felt like you do

She'll build up your hopes and when you need her the most

That's when she'll say goodbye to you



She's a must to avoid

A complete impossibility

She's a must to avoid

Better take it from me

BUDDY GUY lyrics - Damn Right, I've Got The Blues (Version 2)

(Buddy Guy)



Damn right, I've got the blues,

People, from my head down to my shoes

Ah, you damn right, I've got the blues

From my head down to my shoes



Well you know I just can't win, 'cause I don't have a damn thing to lose



Stopped by my daughters house

You know I just want to use the phone

Yeah, stopped by my daughters house

Wow, you know I just, I just want to want to use the phone



You know my new grand baby came to the door

And said, granddaddy you know ain't nobody at home



I said watch it



Ah, you damn right, I've got the blues

From my head down, down to my shoes

Damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right I've got the blues

You know I can't win, 'cause I don't have a, a thing to lose



Now look at here

Make it so funky they can smell it



You damn right

You damn right, I've got the blues

You damn right, I've got the blues

Well, oh well

Well, oh well

Well, oh well

Well, oh well

Well, oh well



I feel kinda good right now

I wish we could do this every night



You damn right, I keep the blues

You damn right, I keep the blues

You damn right, I keep the blues



Look at here

I feel so good

I feel kind of good when I sing the blues



Damn right, I've got the blues



Well man, you know I, I, the band

I didn't rehearsal this with the band

I just told them, I said just follow me tonight, man, shit



Damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right, damn right

Oh

JOHN LENNON lyrics - Don't Let Me Down

(Lennon/McCartney)



Don't let me down, don't let me down.

Don't let me down, don't let me down.



Nobody ever loved me like she does,

oo, she does, yeh, she does.

And if somebody loved me like she do me,

oo, she do me, yes, she does.



Don't let me down, don't let me down.

Don't let me down, don't let me down.



I'm in love for the first time.

Don't you know it's gonna last.

It's a love that lasts forever,

It's a love that had no past.



Don't let me down, don't let me down.

Don't let me down, don't let me down.



And from the first time that she really done me,

oo, she done me, she done me good.

I guess nobody ever really done me,

oo, she done me, she done me good.



Don't let me down, don't let me down.

Don't let me down, don't let me down.

THE MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP lyrics - Searching For A Reason

[Chorus:]

We all need to have good timing

We all have the right to live

To spend our time hurting, fighting

We all have much more to give



The cry of the nations, Scream in our ears

A devil will promise the breath of our fears

Searching for the reason

The lines are all crossed

We fall Into darkness

And all of us lost



[Chorus]



Searching for the reason

The answer is lost

We fall Into darkness

The future is shot



[Chorus]

BOY GEORGE lyrics - Keep Me In Mind

You got, you got, you got everything

You know I'm not someone

Who likes to wait around in line

You know I'm not someone

Who likes to waste a lot of time

Love will find the answer

In every little thing you do

Love will find the answer

And it's always gonna come to you

If you just

Keep me in mind

'Cause there may not be a second time Keep me in mind

For the rest of your life

Keep me in mind

You know I'm not someone

Who likes to use words like love

You know I'm not someone

Who likes to put myself above

Keep me in mind

'Cause there may not be a second time

Keep me in mind

For the rest of your life Keep me in mind

FREE lyrics - Soon I Will Be Gone

(Fraser / Rodgers)



Watch my hand

Writing this last letter

Watch my hand

Knowing I won't forget her

No I won't forget her



Take my things

Every thing is over

All my things

Leave behind my love

Leave behind my love

La la la

La la la

La la la



Now lighing a cigarette

Now knowing I will regret

The way our love had to end

In her room

Standing alone

All alone



Soon I will be gone

Soon I will

Soon I will

Soon I will be gone

Soon I will

Soon I will

Soon I will be gone

AEROSMITH lyrics - Cheese Cake

I met a babe in a backseat drive-in

Back in the saddle she'd sit

Pulled on the reins just to keep me risin'

She loved to chomp at the bit



Daddy do it, ooh, just do it

Daddy do it, please let me see

Do it, please just do it daddy

Do it, do it, drivin' me crazy



She always walks with her eyes

Down on her bootlace

She lives to give it away

She don't believe in the right time or the wrong place

She's always liable to say



Daddy do it, ooh, just do it

Daddy do it, please let me see

Do it, please just do it daddy

Do it, do it, drivin' me crazy



Cheese cake, looser than her sister

Cheese cake, uum...her sugar gets me high

She knows I can't resist her

Cheese cake

Got my fingers in her pie

Cheese cake

Cheese cake, sneakin' out the back door

Cheese cake, rollin' down the lawn

Everybody kissed her, cheese cake

Oh, at the crack of dawn, cheese cake



Daddy do it, ooh, just do it

Daddy do it, please let me see

Daddy do it, please just do it daddy

Do it, do it, do it, drivin' me crazy



Cheese cake, looser than her sister

Cheese cake, uum...her sugar gets me high

She knows I can't resist her

Cheese cake

Got my fingers in her pie

Cheese cake



Cheese cake

Cheese cake

Cheese cake

Cheese cake

Cheese cake

Cheese cake

Cheese cake

Cheese cake

10,000 MANIACS lyrics - Hello In There

We had an apartment in the city,

Me and Loretta liked living there.

Well, it'd been years since the kids had grown,

A life of their own left us alone.

John and Linda live in Omaha,

And Joe is somewhere on the road.

We lost Davy in the Korean war,

And I still don't know what for, don't matter anymore.



[Chorus:]

Ya' know that old trees just grow stronger,

And old rivers grow wilder ev'ry day.

Old people just grow lonesome

Waiting for someone to say, "Hello in there, hello."



Me and Loretta, we don't talk much more,

She sits and stares through the back door screen.

And all the news just repeats itself

Like some forgotten dream that we've both seen.

Someday I'll go and call up Rudy,

We worked together at the factory.

But what could I say if asks "What's new?"

"Nothing, what's with you? Nothing much to do."



[Chorus]



So if you're walking down the street sometime

And spot some hollow ancient eyes,

Please don't just pass 'em by and stare

As if you didn't care, say, "Hello in there, hello."

THE BYRDS lyrics - The Airport Song

(Crosby / McGuinn)



You make me smile

And all the while

You're so cool I can feel

You care if it's real

Our love



I found you here

The sun in your hair

Caught my eye passing by

I knew I should try

Our love



I watched the planes coming in

Felt my heart beat begin

And I knew that

I would stay



A cab for two

A whole city new

But this time we'll share

The love we'll find there

Our love

LEONARD COHEN lyrics - Paper Thin Hotel

The walls of this hotel are paper-thin

Last night I heard you making love to him

The struggle mouth to mouth and limb to limb

The grunt of unity when he came in

I stood there with my ear against the wall

I was not seized by jealousy at all

In fact a burden lifted from my soul

I heard that love was out of my control

A heavy burden lifted from my soul

I heard that love was out of my control



I listened to your kisses at the door

I never heard the world so clear before

You ran your bath and you began to sing

I felt so good I couldn't feel a thing



I stood there with my ear against the wall...



And I can't wait to tell you to your face

And I can't wait for you to take my place

You are The Naked Angel In My Heart

You are The Woman With Her Legs Apart

It's written on the walls of this hotel

You go to heaven once you've been to hell



A heavy burden lifted from my soul

I heard that love was out of my control

RICKY NELSON lyrics - Everlovin'

(Dave Burgess)



(Everlovin' hoo everlovin'

Everlovin' hoo everlovin')

Everlovin' you're my one desire

Everlovin' you set my soul on fire

Everlovin' I'll be everlovin' you (wo-wo-wo)

[Instrumental interlude]

I've gotta make you mine

You're the only one I ever love-ove-ove-oved



Everlovin' say you'll leave me never

Everlovin' I'll be yours forever

Everlovin' I'll be everlovin' you (wo-yay-yeah)

Everlovin' I'll be everlovin' you (wo-yay-yeah)



[Fade:]

Everlovin' I'll be everlovin' you (wo-yay-yeah)

Everlovin' I'll be everlovin' you (wo-yay-yeah)

SAXON lyrics - Hole In The Sky

Listen now heed the warning

Can't you hear the planet's cries

With the storm comes the fury

Mankind looks towards the sky



Burn the wheat

Feed the fire

On the wind

Rising higher

There's a hole in the sky

Are we blind

Hole in the sky

Can't you see



Hole in the sky

Are we blind

Hole in the sky

Can't you see



Come the sun come the wind

Ultraviolet radiation

Bring the flood from the sea

Breaking down communication



Burn the wheat

Feed the fire

On the wind

Rising higher

There's a hole in the sky

Are we blind

Hole in the sky

Can't you see



Listen now heed the warning

Bring the land to devastation

Come the thunder come the ram

See the end of all creation



Burn the wheat

Feed the fire

On the wind

Rising higher

There's a hole in the sky

Are we blind

Hole in the sky

Can't you see



Hole in the sky

Are we blind

Hole in the sky

Can't you see

THE BANGLES lyrics - Walking Down Your Street

Oooh, oh I've had sleepless nights

Toss and turn, wake up burning

For what you inspire.



So, I'm gonna walk right down your street

With a love that I can't hide

I've got one thing on my mind

Yeah, I'll even sacrifice my pride, 'cause I want you.



Oooh, oh how I wish you would be mine

My pulse is weak, I'm blushing brighter

Then a valentine.



'Cause I've been walking down your street

With a love that I can't hide

I've got one thing on my mind

Yeah, I'll even sacrifice my pride.



'Cause I can't stop the way I feel

So, I'll keep walking on, 'cause I want you.



(Walking...down...down...down your street

Walking...down your street)

Walking...down your street (walking)

Down your street (walking...down...down...down)

Oh no (walking) oh-woe-oh.

So, I'll keep walking on.



Walking down your street

With a love that I can't hide

Oh, I've got one thing on my mind

Yeah, I'll even sacrifice my pride ('cause I want you).



Walking down your street

With a love that I can't hide

Yeah, I've got one thing on my mind

Yeah, I'll even sacrifice my pride ('cause I want you).



Walking down your street

With a love that I can't hide

Oh, I've got one thing on my mind

Yeah, I'll even sacrifice my pride ('cause I want you).

BOB DYLAN lyrics - Ballad For A Friend

Sad I'm sittin' on the railroad track,

Watchin' that old smokestack.

Train is a-leavin' bit it won't be back.



Years ago we hung around,

Watchin' trains roll through the town.

Now that train is a-graveyard bound.



Where we go up in that North Country,

Lakes and streams and mines so free,

I had no better friend than he.



Something happened to him that day,

I thought I heard a stranger say,

I hung my head and stole away.



A diesel truck was rollin' slow,

Pullin' down a heavy load.

It left him on a Utah road.



They carried him back to his home town,

His mother cried, his sister moaned,

Listin' to them church bells tone.

FLEETWOOD MAC lyrics - Everybody Finds Out

We see no change in sight

Watching her decline

She gets on a midnight plane

She's done it a thousand times



When love starts out in the darkness

It doesn't do well in the light

Affairs of the heart

That start out in the dark

Usually stay with the night



I know you don't agree

(Everyday you tell me)

I know you don't agree



I know he loves me

Everyday he calls me

He says he adores me

What can I say

You can't love him

You can't have him

I do have him, most of the time

Anywhere we can

Anytime we can

Get away... get away



Maybe it's just something else

That you can't tell me

Maybe it's in the way that you

Look away from me



It's not like any words

Need to be said

Well you always know when something's wrong,

My friend



I know you don't agree

(Everyday you tell me)

I know you don't agree



I know he loves me

Everyday he calls me

He says he adores me

What can I say

You can't love him

You can't have him

I do have him, most of the time

Anywhere we can

Anytime we can

Get away... get away



I know you don't agree...

Well, I know you don't agree



You can't love him

You can't have him

I do have him, most of the time

Anywhere we can, baby

Anytime we can

Get away



We see no change in sight

Watching her decline

She gets on a midnight plane

She's done it a thousand times



When love starts out in the darkness

It doesn't do well in the light

Affairs of the heart

That start out in the dark

Usually stay with the night



When nobody sees them

At least, not together

She rarely goes out

She spends every day

Waiting for the day...



When everybody finds out



Don't you know.... don't you know...



You can't love him

You can't have him

I do have him, most of the time

Anywhere we can

Anytime we can

Get away... get away

NEIL YOUNG lyrics - Walk On

I hear some people

been talkin' me down,

Bring up my name,

pass it 'round.

They don't mention

happy times

They do their thing,

I'll do mine.



Ooh baby,

that's hard to change

I can't tell them

how to feel.

Some get stoned,

some get strange,

But sooner or later

it all gets real.



Walk on, walk on,

Walk on, walk on.



I remember

the good old days,

Stayed up all night

gettin' crazed.

Then the money

was not so good,

But we still did

the best we could.



Ooh baby,

that's hard to change

I can't tell them

how to feel.

Some get stoned,

some get strange,

But sooner or later

it all gets real.



Walk on, walk on,

Walk on, walk on.

THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS lyrics - Living Doll

If you had such a checkered past

Then how come you're living today

I never wanted to bring it up

But what's the writing on your forehead say



Wide awake and lost, I don't feel anything at all

This sex appeal, I can't believe that's what it's called



Hey

Here comes somebody's body

Who threw me away

The one and only living doll

I never liked the colder side of her

Or anybody



I never tired of puppet shows

'Cause I like the way that they talk

I never wanted to bring it up

But what's the writing on your forehead say



My biggest expectations put me on her train

My biggest expectations bring me home again



Hey

Here comes somebody's body

Who threw me away

The one and only living doll

I never liked the colder side of her

Or anybody

LINDA RONSTADT lyrics - Hey Mister That's Me Up On The Jukebox

(James Taylor)



Hey mister that's me up on the jukebox

I'm the one singing this sad song

And I cry every time that you slip in one more dime

And play me singing the sad one one more time



Southern California, that's as blue as a girl can be

Blue as the deep blue sea, won't you listen to me now

I need your golden gated cities like a hole in my head

Just like a hole in my head, I'm free



Hey mister that's me up on the jukebox

I'm the one singing this sad song

And I cry every time that you slip in one more dime

And play me singing the sad one one more time



Do believe I'll go back home

Hey mister can't you see that I'm dry as a bone

I think I'll spend some time alone

Unless you find a way of squeezing water from a stone



We'll let the doctor and the lawyer do as much as they can

Let the springtime begin, let the boy become a man

I have wasted too much time just to sing you this sad song

I have been this lonesome picker just a little too long



Hey mister that's me up on the jukebox

I'm the one singing this sad song

And I cry every time that you slip in one more dime

And play me singing the sad one one more time



Well I've been spreading myself thin these days

BARRY MANILOW lyrics - Don't Fall In Love With Me

She was just a girl who knew the way

I was so naieve

Everything she ever said to me

I wanted to believe

I was close to too far gone

When she sat me down and

Told me tenderly



[Chorus:]



Don't fall in love with me

I'll only break your heart

For us forever is just tomorrow

Don't fall in love with me



Don't let the fire start

If you should fall

I'm afraid I'll follow you

Now I'm on the other side of love

Lookin' right at you

There you are so young and sure

Your life has room enough for two

So it's up to me to try and say

Words that didn't stop me yesterday



[Chorus]

B. B. KING lyrics - Sweet Sixteen

[Spoken:]

How about it?, how about it?, it takes a lot of people to make it possible,

So give 'em a big hand. Everybody is working to try to make it nicer.

Anyway! As I leave you... a little bit of Sweet Sixteen for the guys -

Just a taste - give me C for Sweet Sixteen...



When I first met you baby, baby you were just sweet sixteen

First met you baby, baby you was just sweet sixteen

Just left your home then baby, oh the sweetest thing I'd ever seen



But you wouldn't do nothing for me baby, you wouldn't do anything I asked you to

You wouldn't do nothing for me baby, oh you wouldn't do anything I asked you to

You know you ran away from your home baby, and now you wanna run away from old me too



My brother's in Korea baby, my sister's down in New Orleans

Brother's in Korea baby, oh sister sister down in New Orleans

You know I'm having so much troubles people,

Baby I wonder what in the world is gonna happen to me



Oh yes sweet sixteen baby, sweet sixteen, oh yes

The sweetest thing baby, oh yes

The sweetest thing I ever seen

You know I'm having so much trouble people,

Baby I wonder what in the world's gonna happen to me



Sweet sixteen, sweet sixteen oh yes

You know I'm having so much trouble people

Baby I wonder

Yes I wonder

Baby I wonder

I wonder what in the world's gonna happen to me

NIRVANA lyrics - Sappy (Late Version)

And if you save yourself

You will make him happy

He'll keep you in a jar

And you'll think you're happy

He'll give you breathing holes

And you'll think you're happy

He'll cover you with grass

And you'll think you're happy now



You're really in a laundry room

You're really in a laundry room

The clue just came to you, oh



And if you cut yourself (Alt: And if you kill yourself)

You will think you're happy

He'll keep you in a jar

Then you'll make him happy

He'll give you breathing holes

Then you'll think you're happy

He'll cover you with grass

Then you'll think you're happy now



You're really in a laundry room

You're really in a laundry room

The clue that came to you, oh



You're really in a laundry room

You're really in a laundry room

The clue that came to you, oh



And if you fool yourself

You will make him happy

He'll keep you in a jar

Then you'll think you're happy

He'll give you breathing holes

Then you will seem happy

You'll wallow in his shit

Then you'll think you're happy now



You're really in a laundry room

You're really in a laundry room

You're really in a laundry room

The clue that came to you, oh

MICHAEL JACKSON lyrics - Got To Be There

Got to be there (got to be there)

Got to be there in the morning

When she says hello to the world



Got to be there (got to be there)

Got to be there in her down time

And show her that she's my girl

Oooh, what a feeling there'll be

The moment I know she loves me

'Cause when I look in her eyes I realize

I need her sharing the world beside me



So I got to be there (got to be there)

Got to be there in the morning

And welcome her into my world

And show her that she's my girl

When she says hello world

(Got to be there)

(Got to be there)



I need her sharing the world beside me



That's why I got to be there (got to be there)

Got to be there where it all begins

And that's everywhere she goes

I got to be there so she knows

That when she's with me

She's home (oooh, she's home)

(Oooh, she's home), yea



(Got to be there)

Got to be there, got to be there

(Got to be there)

Got to be there, got to be there

(Got to be there)

Ooh, baby, baby, got to be there, got to be there

(Got to be there)

Got to be there, got to be there

(Got to be there)

Ooh, got to be there, got to be there

(Got to be there)

Ooh, got to be there, got to be there

J. J. CALE lyrics - Carry On

(J. J. Cale)



If life's little downs they keep coming around

Carry on, carry on

With darkness all about, you want to scream and shout

Carry on, carry on

Don't cry baby, look at where you've been

Everybody knows you just need a friend

Please, please, please, if you're down on your knees

Carry on, carry on

Your head is full of doubt, you can't figure it out

Carry on, carry on

Between the time it takes to make all those mistakes

Carry on, carry on

It don't matter what you say or do

It just seems to work out if you want it to

Let out all the slack, take it off your back

Carry on, carry on

Let me bend your ear, never shed a tear

Carry on, carry on

Carry on, carry on

MEAT LOAF lyrics - Love Is Not Real / Next Time You Stab Me In The Back

The have been many sightings

Of love in truth

The skeptic in me longs for

To see of love some proof

Only for you does this happen

Only for you do I care



Love is not real

Love is a hoax

It's just a dream

I've had so many nights alone

Love is not here

Love is somewhere else

It's somewhere far

No man I've ever known's

Come close



It can be vicious, heartless,

Dire and cruel

In spite of my mind, my heart longs

To find fire and fuel

Only for you does this happen

Only for you do I care



Love is not real

Love is a hoax

It's just a dream

I've had so many nights alone

Love is not here

Love is somewhere else

It's somewhere far

No man I've ever known's

Come close



My girlfried doesn't want

To know me

And my friends think

I've lost the plot

I have become a liability

I got to do something

But I don't know what

I'm hearing voices

And I can't see straight

I think I might be going insane

Can't make my own decisions

And I just can't wait

To mess it all up again

I never thougt that I would succeed

Beyond the wildest dreams

I've ever dreamt

But everything's become so hackneyed

Familiarity only breeds contempt

I'm ruining your life

I'm bored with mine

I'm acting like I couldn't care less

Another bottle and another line

Another stranger to undress



Next time you stab me in the back

You'd better do it to my face

Next time you stab me in the back

You'd better do it to my face

Next time you stab me in the back

You'd better do it to my face

Next time you stab me in the back

You'd better do it to my face



When you forget

What you cannot forgive

The terms are so much easier to come to with

When we look at what

We're going through

And desaturate

Until everything is simple

Love or hate

Love or hate



I have been searching

I have been searching my soul

I've seen the brightest star

I've seen the blackest hole

I've found a way to cope with every twist of fate

Now everything is simple

Love or hate

Love or hate

Next time you stab me in the back

You'd better do it to my face



And when that love comes crawling back to me to say

I've been away

Now please let me stay with the

No way!

Never again will I do this

Never again will I care



Love is not real

Love is a hoax

It's just a dream

I've had so many nights alone

Love is not here

Love is somewhere else

It's just a dream

I've had so many nights alone



Love is not real

Love is a hoax

It's just a dream

I've had so many nights alone

Love is not here

Love is somewhere else

It's somewhere far away

No man I've ever known's come so close

B. B. KING lyrics - A Woman Don't Care

You may be rich

You may be poor

You may be high

Or you just may be low

But if you fall in love

Oh, and you should lose

A woman don't care

She don't care who she gives the blues



Wo, you may be young

You may be old

Maybe you've heard

Or maybe you've never been told

If you've got a good woman

Oh, try not to misuse

Oh, a woman don't care

She don't care who she gives the blues



She'll make you hot in the winter

Make you cold in the summertime

She'll make you feel young in the spring

And in the fall drive you out of your mind

A woman, don't you hear me callin' you?

Yeah woman, you don't care

Yeah, you don't care who you give the blues



Oh, you may be up

You may be down

You may be short, tall, skinny

Or you just might be round

Oh, don't be too sure of your woman

Thinkin' man, that you can't lose

Oh, remember that a woman don't care

She don't care who she gives the blues

MICK JAGGER lyrics - Angel In My Heart

(Jagger)



Play upon your heart strings to me

I will sing a strange melody

Dance with me a magic ballet

Stay with me 'til night turns to day

Let me in your dreams



Angel in my heart

Angel in my heart



By a pool of darkening dreams

Love is slowly twisting downstream

Underneath the tortuos trees

Out into the sad, silent seas

Lock me in your arms



Angel in my heart

Angel in my heart



How can I feel, how can I feel love when you're gone

How much sin, how much can true forgiving cost

I'm in your skin, I want to win back what I've lost



How can I feel, how can I feel love when you're gone

I'm in your skin, I want to win back what I've lost



I can feel the salt on my skin

I can hear the birds on the wing

I can smell the wood on the fire

I can see the smoke of desire

Let me in your dreams



Angel in my heart

Angel in my heart

EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL lyrics - Come Hell Or High Water

Come Hell or high water

You just do as you please,

Waste your time when you oughta

Be charming the birds from the trees.

A voice straight from heaven

So you like to believe

And who cares if its only

Your poor self you deceive.

You look in the mirror and what do you see?

Too much care and sceming, too little beauties

Come Hell or High water, you never will be

A goddess or a genius, a drunkerd at 23

And all that you yearn for, is attentino I guess

Come Hell or high water you deserve nothing less.

Come Hell or high water you will stray off the rails

And I won't try to change you for god knows I would fail

And its to the angels that each day you pray

Come hell or high water I know you will meet them someday

THE POGUES lyrics - The Irish Rover

(Traditional)



On the fourth of July eighteen hundred and six

We set sail from the sweet cove of Cork

We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks

For the grand city hall in New York

'Twas a wonderful craft, she was rigged fore-and-aft

And oh, how the wild winds drove her.

She'd got several blasts, she'd twenty-seven masts

And we called her the Irish Rover.



We had one million bales of the best Sligo rags

We had two million barrels of stones

We had three million sides of old blind horses hides,

We had four million barrels of bones.

We had five million hogs, we had six million dogs,

Seven million barrels of porter.

We had eight million bails of old nanny goats' tails,

In the hold of the Irish Rover.



There was awl Mickey Coote who played hard on his flute

When the ladies lined up for his set

He was tootin' with skill for each sparkling quadrille

Though the dancers were fluther'd and bet

With his sparse witty talk he was cock of the walk

As he rolled the dames under and over

They all knew at a glance when he took up his stance

And he sailed in the Irish Rover



There was Barney McGee from the banks of the Lee,

There was Hogan from County Tyrone

There was Jimmy McGurk who was scarred stiff of work

And a man from Westmeath called Malone

There was Slugger O'Toole who was drunk as a rule

And fighting Bill Tracey from Dover

And your man Mick McCann from the banks of the Bann

Was the skipper of the Irish Rover



We had sailed seven years when the measles broke out

And the ship lost it's way in a fog.

And that whale of the crew was reduced down to two,

Just meself and the captain's old dog.

Then the ship struck a rock, oh Lord what a shock

The bulkhead was turned right over

Turned nine times around, and the poor dog was drowned

I'm the last of the Irish Rover

JOHNNY CASH lyrics - Tennessee Flat-Top Box

In a little cabaret in a South Texas border town,

Sat a boy and his guitar, and the people came from all around.

And all the girls from there to Austin,

Were slippin' away from home and puttin' jewelery in hock.

To take the trip, to go and listen,

To the little dark-haired boy who played the Tennessee flat top box.



And he would play: [Instrumental]



Well, he couldn't ride or wrangle, and he never cared to make a dime.

But give him his guitar, and he'd be happy all the time.

And all the girls from nine to ninety,

Were snapping fingers, tapping toes, and begging him: "Don't stop."

And hypnotized and fascinated,

By the little dark-haired boy who played the Tennessee flat top box.



And he would play: [Instrumental]



Then one day he was gone, and no one ever saw him 'round,

He'd vanished like the breeze, they forgot him in the little town.

But all the girls still dreamed about him.

And hung around the cabaret until the doors were locked.

And then one day on the Hit Parade,

Was a little dark-haired boy who played the Tennessee flat top box.



And he would play: [Instrumental]
