THE CARS lyrics - Maybe Baby



i heard stories about you

i'd like to think that they were true

i did not know you'd be like that

with those surprises under hat

be my maybe baby

when you dance between the stars

in the night late sweet and dark

turn them over one by one

you don't need to jump the gun

when the night is feeling flush

when the night is all a hush

electric look electic blue

keep one dream that won't come true


STEVE EARLE lyrics - The Week Of Living Dangerously



(Steve Earle)



I got out of work and I headed for the neighborhood beer joint

I sat around and had a beer with the boys like I always do

Well I didn't have nothin' to say anyway there ain't no point

There's just something 'bout a Monday that always makes me blue

Well it was well after dark so I knew my wife and kids were waitin'

And I guess I took a left where I generally take a right

Well I filled her up with gas, checked the oil at the Texaco station

I threw the car seat in the dumpster and headed off into the night



Woo-ohh-ooh-ooh-ooh

There's somethin' 'bout a Monday that always makes me blue



Well I headed south on 35 hell bent for vinyl

I hadn't never had her up past 55 before

Well somethin' 'bout that little red line always looked so final

Buddy you'd be surprised how fast a Chevrolet truck can go



* Now, down in Mexico they've got a little place called Boystown

Where a man's still a man if you know what I'm talkin' about

Well, I walked into the Cadillac bar and I laid my cash down

I said "there's plenty more where that came from" and the lights went out



* (this verse is not included on the official lyrics sheet, but is included on the recording)



Well I woke up in a county jail 'cross the line in Laredo

With a headache and a deputy staring at me through the door

Well he said "Now how you got across that river alive, I don't know

But your wife just made your bail so now you're really dead for sure"



Now my wife, she called my boss and cried so I got my job back

And the boys down at the plant, they whisper and stare at me

Yea well my wife can find a lot of little jobs to keep me on the right track

Well, but that's a small price to pay for a week of living dangerously



Yeah-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-wee

That's a small price to pay for a week of living dangerously


10,000 MANIACS lyrics - Wildwood Flower



[Originally by Carter Family]



Oh, I'll twine with my mingles and waving black hair

With the roses so red and the lilies so fair

And the myrtle so bright with the emerald hue

The pale and the leader and eyes look like blue



Oh I'll dance, I will sing and my laugh shall be gay

I will charm every heart, in his crown I will sway

When I woke from my dreaming, my idol was clay

All portion of love had all flown away



Oh he taught me to love him and promised to love

And to cherish me over all others above

How my heart is now wond'ring no mis'ry can tell

He's left me no warning, no words of farewell



Oh, he taught me to love him and called me his flower

That was blooming to cheer him through life's dreary hour

Oh, I long to see him and regret the dark hour

He's gone and neglected this pale wildwood flower


ABBA lyrics - The King Has Lost His Crown



I believe

your new girl turned you down

and they say

she's pushin' you around

how does it feel

I guess it hurts your pride

tell me my friend

how many nights you've cried



Disaster and disgrace

the king has lost his crown

suddenly

he's clumsy like a clown

the world is upside down

the king has lost his crown



Was it hard

to step down from your throne

and to know

tonight you're all alone

oh what a shame

you really want that girl

she doesn't care

still you just dream of her



Disaster and disgrace

the king has lost his crown

suddenly

he's clumsy like a clown

the world is upside down

the king has lost his crown



Disaster and disgrace

the word is all around

suddenly

he's clumsy like a clown

the world is upside down

the king has lost his crown


FLEETWOOD MAC lyrics - I Wonder Why



It's hard

When a love goes wrong

Picking up the pieces to go on

Our dreams

Are scattered in the wind

I won't let it take me under

Even though you tried...and...



I wonder why

Things go the way they do

Why people lie, and break a heart in two

I wonder why

Things go the way they do



It's strange

Strange the way I feel

Time is all I need to make me heal

You're gone

And now I'm all alone (now you're all alone)

I'll reclaim the thunder

Dry the tears i'be cried...still...



I wonder why

Things go the way they do

Why people lie, and break a heart in two

I wonder why

Things go the way they do



Now I'm turning my back on confusion

I won't live in a world of illusion

Well the river stopped running through me

You did'nt see what you did to me

I've got to try to find, some kind of peace of mind

You're just a mystery to me



I'll reclaim the thunder

Dry the tears I've cried...still...



I wonder why

Things go the way they do

Why people lie, and break a heart in two

I wonder why

Things go the way they do


CHIC lyrics - I Want Your Love



I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love



Do you feel like you ever want

To try my love and see how well it fits

Baby can't you see, when you look at me

I can't kick this feelin' when it hits

All alone in my bed at night

I grab my pillow and squeeze it tight

I think of you

And I dream of you all the time

What am I gonna do



I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love



Sometime, don't you feel like you

Never really had a love that's real

Well, here I am, and who's to say

A better love you won't find today

Just one chance and I will show you love

Like no other, two steps above

On your ladder

I'll be a peg

I want your loving

Please don't make me beg



I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I need your love



I'll share my dreams

And make you see

How really bad your love I need

I want your love, I need your love

Just like the birds in the sky above

I'll share my dreams

And make you see

How really bad your love I need



I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love


UB40 lyrics - Food For Thought



Ivory Madonna dying in the dust,

Waiting for the manna coming from the west.

Barren is her bosom, empty as her eyes,

Death a certain harvest scattered from the skies.



Skin and bones is creeping, doesn't know he's dead.

Ancient eyes are peeping, from his infant head.

Politician's argue sharpening their knives.

Drawing up their bargains, trading baby lives.



Ivory madonna dying in the dust,

Waiting for the manna coming from the west.



Hear the bells are ringing, Christmas on it's way.

Hear the angels singing, what is that they say?

Eat and drink rejoicing, joy is here to stay.

Jesus son of Mary is born again today.



Ivory Madonna dying in the dust,

Waiting for the manna coming from the west.

Ivory Madonna dying in the dust,

Waiting for the manna coming from the west.

D. J. JAZZY JEFF & THE FRESH PRINCE lyrics - You Saw My Blinker (Bitch)



This is a story I'll never forget

About the day my new car got hit

It caught me off guard cause it happened so quick

When I heard the crash I got mad as hell

Cruising down the highway fast not slow

Ninety miles an hour in my 5.0

People waving at me cause they know who I am

Alpine stero blasting a jam

Put the top down said my girlfriend

Then my damn hat blew off in the wind

I got kinda mad cause it's the hat I just bought

I shoulda put her out it was all her fault

Day was friday date was ten

My girl was looking good on a strem

She smacked my hand when I put it on her rear

Said hit me again and I'll break your wrist

That day I dressed all in white

Takin' my girl to Palm Springs for the night

I was hoping I could find a short cut

I was tired plus I had a rash on my butt

There was this lady in a pinto coup

'bout 90 years old I could tell by the droop

Driving off fast borderline insane

Glass so thick couldn't stay in her lane

I swerved left then I swerved right

She was still tailgating me too damn tight

To the left lane I tried to switch

Then you saw my blinker bitch



We both pulled off on the side of the road

I was hot ready to explode

The only thing stopping me from breaking her nose

Is I was 21 and she was 90 years old

Then the police came turn the lights off

The lady started cryin' and the cop got soft

The cop said ah it'll be ok

Wrinkled old bag lookin' like a charpe

I said wait what's going on cap'

Her car's fine my car is wrecked

Then I saw what happened in the crash

Her dentures came out her mouth and got stuck in the dash

You hit me I didn't hit you

Stop holding your neck lady you can't sue

It's your fault you caused all this

You saw my blinker bitch



Wednesday October the fourth

That's when we got our day in court

That lady destroyed my case

She came in a wheelchair and a neck brace

I jumped up I said you must be jokin'

Come on judge her neck ain't broken

Well I'll be damned

Wrinkled old bag started cryin' on the stand

The balif grabbed me slammed me on the ground

Judge said boy you'd better calm down

Aren't you one of them damn rap singers

Yeah then I gave him the finger

Judge held me in contempt of court

For givin' him the finger and things of that sort

Anything to say before you're dismissed

Just one you saw my blinker bitch

ELTON JOHN lyrics - The Wasteland



Some days I think it's all a dream

The things I've done, the places that I've been

This life of mine seemed surreal at times

Wasted days and nights in someone else's mind



Could it be I'm not for real?

I've slapped my face to check out how I feel

There's hostages to prove it's true

Who lives behind the mask was never proved



Come on Robert Johnson

Though we're worlds apart

You and I know what it's like

With the devil in our heart

You sold your soul at the crossroads

Kept a little of mine on hand

I'm wading out this muddy water

Been stranded in the Wasteland



Rattling chains all around my bed

Ghosts can laugh but they're already dead

I'm not dying and I'm far from gone

The blues man spent his candle but his pain lives on


BERLIN lyrics - Shiny



(Gisborne/ M. Sigman/ T. Nunn)



Beneath the silver sun

It's dark and life's begun

Thousands strong

Feel as one



Lights and sensurround

Move me, throw me down

Ten feet tall, beyond all walls



You're a dream and my world is spinning

Round and round out of control tonight

And I feel so alive



And I see all the people moving

Dancing through the corridors of light

And I feel so alive

I feel so alive



Alice in Wonderland

Reaches out her hand

Lasers beam

For you and me



Through my great divide

Our two worlds collide

We fall in love again



You're a dream and my world is spinning

Round and round out of control tonight

And I feel so alive



And I see all the people moving

Dancing through the corridors of light

And I feel so alive

I feel so alive



You're a dream and my world is spinning

Round and round out of control tonight

And I feel so alive



And I see all the people moving

Dancing through the corridors of light

And I feel so alive

I feel so alive

NANCI GRIFFITH lyrics - These Days In An Open Book



(Nanci Griffith)



Shut it down and call this road a day

And put this silence in my heart in a better place

I have traveled with your ghost now so many years

That I see you in the shadows

In hotel rooms and headlights

You're coming up beside me

Whether it's day or night



[Chorus:]

These days my life is an open book

Missing pages I cannot seem to find

These days your face

In my memory

Is in a folded hand of grace against these times



No one's ever come between your memory and me

I have driven this weary vessel here alone

Will you still find me if I leave you here beside this road

Cuz' I need someone who can touch me

Who'll put no one above me

Someone who needs me

Like the air he breathes



[Chorus]



[Bridge:]

I can't remember where this toll road goes

Maybe it's Fort Worth, maybe it's a heart of gold

The price of love is such a heavy toll

That I've lived my life in the backroads

With your love in my pocket

If I spend the love you gave me

Tell me where will it go?



[Chorus]



These days your face

In my memory

Is in a folded hand of grace

Folded hand of grace

Folded hand of grace

Against these times

STEPPENWOLF lyrics - Monster



Once the religious, the hunted and weary

Chasing the promise of freedom and hope

Came to this country to build a new vision

Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope

Like good Christians, some would burn the witches

Later some got slaves to gather riches



But still from near and far to seek America

They came by thousands to court the wild

And she just patiently smiled and bore a child

To be their spirit and guiding light



And once the ties with the crown had been broken

Westward in saddle and wagon it went

And 'til the railroad linked ocean to ocean

Many the lives which had come to an end

While we bullied, stole and bought our a homeland

We began the slaughter of the red man



But still from near and far to seek America

They came by thousands to court the wild

And she just patiently smiled and bore a child

To be their spirit and guiding light



The blue and grey they stomped it

They kicked it just like a dog

And when the war over

They stuffed it just like a hog



And though the past has it's share of injustice

Kind was the spirit in many a way

But it's protectors and friends have been sleeping

Now it's a monster and will not obey


JAN AND DEAN lyrics - Surf City



Two girls for every boy



I bought a '30 Ford wagon and we call it a woody

(Surf City, here we come)

You know it's not very cherry, it's an oldie but a goody

(Surf City, here we come)

Well, it ain't got a back seat or a rear window

But it still gets me where I wanna go



And we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one

You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun

Ya, we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one

You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun, now

Two girls for every boy



You see they never roll the streets up 'cause there's always somethin' goin'

(Surf City, here we come)

You know they're either out surfin' or they got a party growin'

(Surf City, here we come)

Well, with two swingin' honeys for every guy

And all you gotta do is just wink your eye



Ya, we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one

You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun

Ya, we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one

Ya, we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun, now

Two girls for every boy



And if my woody breaks down on me somewhere on the surf route

(Surf City, here we come)

I'll strap my board to my back and hitch a ride in my wetsuit

(Surf City, here we come)

And when I get to Surf City I'll be shootin' the curl

And checkin' out the parties for a surfer girl



And we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one

You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun

Ya, we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one

Ya, we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun, now

Two girls for every

Two girls for every boy


J. J. CALE lyrics - Everything Will Be Alright



(J. J. Cale)



Same old hassle every night

All we do is fuss and fight

Ain't no use in talking, might as well start walking

Walking out into the night

You get your gun, I'll get mine

We can do it just one time

If we live no longer, it won't get no stronger

Then we'll know who's really right

All we do is weep and moan

Trying to build ourself a home

Ain't no shame in trying, ain't no use denying

Everything will be alright


THE FLAMING LIPS lyrics - What Does It Mean?



You and me, we've lit our fuse

I don't care if we're born to lose

Going to infinity



Out all night, sun's too bright

Though i'm blind, it'll be all right

Going to infinity



What does it mean?

Infinity



You and me, we've lit our fuse

I don't care if we're born to lose

Going to infinity



Out all night, the sun's too bright

Though I'm blind, it'll be all right

Going to infinity



What does it mean?

Infinity



You and me know it ends too soon

But I know we've got a death wish too

Going to infinity



Out all night, we're burning away

I'm left tired and I sleep for days

Going to infinity



What does it mean?

Infinity



You and me know it ends too soon

But I know we've got a death wish too

Going to infinity



Out all night, we're burning away

I'm left tired and I sleep for days

We're going to infinity



What does it mean?

Infinity

U. D.O. lyrics - Tears Of A Clown



All his life he did his best for all

And the crown of laughter

Hanging low

The spotlight in the ring,

The choruses that sing

The paint and masquerade

Was just a show

The clown - the clown

Happiness around

Just a soul lonely in the crowd

The clown - the clown

His heart is all alone

No one wants the tears of a clown

The living of the glory and applause

The circus tent,

The only home he knows

The cover-up is bold,

The mask becoming cold

It's easier to let the eyelids close

The clown, ...

The final curtain falls for all to see

The final score, the circus melody

His star that shone so bright,

Gave comfort in the night

The light that always held him

Set him free

The clown, ...


CROSBY, STILLS & NASH lyrics - Cold Rain



(Graham Nash)



[Intro. (Piano)]



Cold rain down on my face

Buses hurry on

Work's out here comes the race

People heading home



Wait a second, don't I know you?

Haven't I seen you somewhere before?

You seem to be like someone I knew

Yes, he lived here but he left

When he thought that there was more



Than cold rain and nowhere to go

Many people share

Sad dreams and hopes that are stained

By the sulphur in the air



Don't I know you?

Haven't I seen you somewhere before?

You seem to be like someone I knew

He lived here but he left

When he thought that there was more



Than cold rain out on the streets

I am all alone

With cold rain down on my face

I am heading home


JANIS JOPLIN lyrics - Mary Jane



Now when I go to work, I work all day,

Always turns out the same.

When I bring home my hard-earned pay

I spend my money all on Mary Jane.

Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Lord, my Mary Jane.



Oh if a man should look tame now, mean and mature,

They all turn out the same.

'Cause they can't do nothing to make a man feel good

Like my old Mary Jane.

Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Lord, my Mary Jane.



Now I walk in the street now lookin' for a friend

One that can lend me some change.

And he never questions my reason why,

'Cause he too loves Mary Jane.

Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Lord, my Mary Jane.



Well, I have known women that wanted no man,

Some that wanted to stay.

But I never knew what happened in this world

Till I met up with Mary Jane,

Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Lord my Mary Jane.



Oh, when I'm feelin' lonesome and I'm feelin' blue,

There's only one way to change.

Now I walk down the street now lookin' for a man,

One that knows my Mary Jane,

Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Lord my Mary Jane.

JOHN (COUGAR) MELLENCAMP lyrics - In Our Lives



Well I'm a middle-aged teenager

I'm a man of angst and leisure

Doin' the best that I can do

My problems are incorrect

I've always got it around my neck

Hey I'm just like you

Yeah I've done some good and I've done some bad

But the most fun that I ever had

Was singing my songs for you

And if I should go astray

I'd get down on my knees and pray

Say God forgive me for what I do



Oh in our lives

There's no right way for us to live it

You know in our lives

There's a time to cry and a time to forget it



Well I'm a broke down humble man

Baby that's just who I am

And that's from me to you

Well I feel good here

Got about a million more years

To do what it is I gotta do

And if some day you happen to be passin' my way

Say hi, hello, how are you

Well, I'll return the gesture in kind

And hope that things are fine

And you all just do what you gotta do



Oh in our lives

There's no right way for us to live it

Oh in our lives

There's a time to cry and a time to get with it

You know in our lives there's no right way for us to live it.



Well I'm a broke down humble man

That's just who I am

And that's from me to you

Yeah I'm a broke down humble man

Yeah that's just who I am

And that's from me to you



Oh in our lives

You know in our lives

Yeah in our lives there's no right way for us to live it


IRON MAIDEN lyrics - When The Wild Wind Blows



Have you heard what they said on the news today?

Have you heard what is coming to us all?

That the world as we know it will be coming to an end

Have you heard, have you heard?



He sees them in the distance when the darkened clouds roll

He could feel tension in the atmosphere

He would look in the mirror, see an old man now

Does it matter they survive somehow?



They said there's nothing can be done about the situation

They said there's nothing you can do at all

To sit and wait around for something to occur

Did you know, did you know?



As he stares across the garden looking at the meadows

Wonders if they'll ever grow again

The desperation of the situation getting graver

Getting ready when the wild wind blows



Have you seen what they said on the news today?

Have you heard what they said about us all?

Do you know what is happening to just every one of us

Have you heard, have you heard?



There will be a catastrophe the like we've never seen

There will be something that will light the sky

That the world as we know it, it will never be the same

Did you know, did you know?



He carries everything into the shelter not a fuss

Getting ready when the moment comes

He has enough supplies to last them for a year or two

Good to have because you never know



They tell us nothing that we don't already know about

They tell us nothing that is real at all

They only fill us with the stuff that they want

Did you know, did you know?



He's nearly finished with the preparations for the day

He's getting tired -- that'll do for now

They are preparing for the very worst to come to them

Getting ready when the wild wind blows



He sees the picture on the wall, it's falling down

Upside down

He sees a teardrop from his wife roll down her face,

Saying grace

Remember times they had, they flash right through his mind

Left behind

Of a lifetime spent together long ago

Will be gone



They've been preparing for some weeks now

For when the crucial moment comes

To take their refuge in the shelter

Let them prepare for what will come



They make a tea and sit there waiting

They're in the shelter feeling snug

Not long to wait for absolution

Don't make a fuss; just sit and wait



Can't believe all the lying,

All the screams are denying

That the moments of truth have begun



Can't you see it on the t. v.?

Don't believe them in the least bit

Now the days of our ending have begun



Say a prayer when it's all over

Survivors unite, all as one

Got to try and help each other

Got the will to overcome



I can't believe all the lying,

All the screens are denying

That the moments of truth have begun



Can't you see it on the TV?

Don't believe them in the least bit

Now the days of our ending have begun



When they found them, [they] had their arms wrapped around each other

Their tins of poison laying near by their clothes

The day they both mistook an earthquake for the fallout,

Just another when the wild wind blows...


JOHN (COUGAR) MELLENCAMP lyrics - Miss Missy



There's a band playing down the street we could see, yeah

Movie showing down at the Von Lee

A church supper with Grandma and Grandad

Let's go out and have ourselves the best time we've ever had



Say goodnight, my Miss Missy

Goodnight, it's time to go home

Hey, I might call you later

Oh Missy, girl, it's late, it's time to go home



Weight of the world's now on your head

I take back all those mean things I said

Little baby kicking down in your gut

I hope it doesn't grow up to be as crazy as us



Goodnight, oh my Miss Missy

Goodnight, it's time to go home

Hey, I might, I just might, call you later

Oh Missy it's time to go home



So let's dance slow just one more time

Let me hold your face close to mine, yeah

Let's pretend that Jesus has come

To take us out just one more night for fun



Goodnight, oh my Miss Missy

Goodnight, it's time to go home

Hey, I might call you later

Oh Missy, girl, it's time to go home



Goodnight, oh my Miss Missy

Goodnight, it's time to go home

Hey, I might, I just might, call you later

Oh Missy it's time to go home

THE MONKEES lyrics - Early Morning Blues And Greens



(Diane Hilderbrand and Jack Keller)



A distant night bird mocks the sun.

I wake as I have always done,

To freshly scented sycamore

And cold bare feet on hardwood floor.



My steaming coffee warms ny face

I'm diappointed in the taste.

But there's a peace the early brings

The morning world of growing things.



[Instrumental]



I feel the moments hurry on

It was today, it's died away,

And now it is forever gone.



And I will drink my coffee slow

And I will watch my shadow grow

And disappear in firelight

And sleep alone again tonight.


LOUIS ARMSTRONG lyrics - Hello, Dolly



Hello, Dolly, this is Louis, Dolly

It's so nice to have you back where you belong

You lookin' swell Dolly, I can tell Dolly

You still glowin', you still growin', you still goin' strong

I feel the room swayin', while the band's playin'

One of their old favourite songs from way back when

So, take a wrap fellas, find her an empty lap fellas

Dolly …. never go away again



I feel the room swayin', but the band's playin'

One of our old favourite songs from back when

So, golly gee fellas, have a little faith in me fellas

Dolly, never go away

Promise, you'll never go away

Dolly, never go away again

ROBERTA FLACK lyrics - Where Is The Love



Where is the love

(Where is the love)

Where is the love

(Where is the love)

Where is the love

(Where is the love)

Where is the love



Where is the love

You said you'd give to me

Soon as you were free

Will it ever be

Where is the love



You told me that you didn't love him

And you were gonna say goodbye

But if you really didn't mean it

Why did you have to lie



Where is the love

You said was mine all mine

Till the end of time

Was it just a lie

Where is the love



If you had had a sudden change of heart

I wish that you would tell me so

Don't leave me hangin on the promises

You've got to let me know



[Instrumental Interlude]



Oh, how I wish I never met you

I guess it must have been my fate

To fall in love with someone else's love

All I can do is wait

(That's all I can do)

Yeah, hey, yeah



Where is the love


10CC lyrics - Waterfall



Gonna meet you on the corner

Gonna take you out of town

Out to where the grass is greener

And no one can be found

Gonna be there in the morning

Gonna take you by the hand

Gonna get out of the city

Gonna get back to the land

Waterfall, and it's fallin' down on me

Waterfall, and it's fallin' down

But it ain't gonna let me be

Gonna be there in the morning

Gonna take you by the hand

Gonna get out of the city

Gonna get back to the land

Waterfall, and it's fallin' down on me

Waterfall, and it's fallin' down

But it ain't gonna let me be

Hey, Waterfall

Hey, Waterfall

Hey, Waterfall

Hey, Waterfall

CHAKA KHAN lyrics - Crazy



(Willie Nelson)



I'm crazy

Crazy for feeling so lonely

I'm crazy

Crazy for feeling so blue

I know

You'd love me as long as you wanted

Then someday

Leave me for somebody new



Worry

Why do I let myself worry

Wond'ring

What in the world did I do

Crazy

For thinking that my love could hold you

I'm crazy for crying

I'm crazy for trying

I'm crazy for loving you


ALICE IN CHAINS lyrics - Love, Hate, Love



I tried to love you I thought I could

I tried to own you I thought I would

I want to peel the skin from your face

Before the real you lays to waste



You told me I'm the only one

Sweet little angel you should have run

Lying, crying, dying to leave

Innocence creates my hell



Cheating myself still you know more

It would be so easy with a whore

Try to understand me little girl

My twisted passion to be your world



Lost inside my sick head

I live for you but I'm not alive

Take my hand before I kill

I still love you, but, I still burn



Yeah, Love, hate, love [3x]

Oooh, Love, hate, love

Yeah, Love, hate, love


JEFF BECK lyrics - Get Workin'



Get get get workin'

Work



Get workin'

Work

Get workin'

Get workin'

Work

Get workin'



Got up early cannot be late

When the cock crowed I was wide awake

My mother stopped by just to say

All the children they are grown now I'm all alone

Mother I'd love to sit I'd like to talk with you

Till hell freezes over but my boss is on us

Get workin'

Work

Get workin'

Get workin'

Work

Get workin'



The foreman tells what to do

He really hates me says I've ruined his mood

I put a thumb tack in his shoe

Watched him hop around for a week

Like a bullfrog on a beach

I didn't antisapate he'd investagate

All the evidence points to me

Now that's the end of our being mates

Get workin'

Work

Get workin'

Get workin'

Work

Get workin'



Get workin' workin' workin'

Work work work

Get workin' workin' workin'

JEFFERSON AIRPLANE lyrics - The Other Side Of This Life



(Neil)



Would you like to know a secret just between you and me

I don't know where I'm going next, I don't know who I'm gonna be

But that's the other side of this life I've been leading

That's the other side of this life.



Well my whole world's in an uproar, my whole world's upside down

I don"t know where I'm going next, but I'm always bumming around

And that's another side to this life I've been leading

And that's another side to this life



Well I don't know what doing for half the time, I don't know where I'm going

I think I'll get me a sailing boat and sail the Gulf of Mexico

But that's another side of this life I've been leading

And that's another side of this life



Well I think I'll go to Nashville down in Tennesse

The ten cent life I've been leading here gonna be the death of me

But that's the other side of this life I've been leading

And that's another side to this life



Would you like to know a secret just between you and me

I don't know where I'm going next, I don't know who I'm gonna be

But that's the other side of this life I've been leading

But that's the other side of this life.


SWEET lyrics - AC/DC



(Chinn/Chapman)



She got girls

Girls all over the world

She got men

Every now and then

But she can't make up her mind

On just how to fill her time

But the only way she can wind



Chorus

A. C. D. C.

She's got some other lover as well as me

A. C. D. C.

She's got some other women as well as me

She's got some other women as well as me



She's got phone

But they call her bump

She got sick

You wanna see her dingaling

Well let's be in it together

I'll guess she'll be in it forever

You've got to take it now and ever



Chorus



She got girls

Girls all over the world

She got men

Every now and then

But she can't make up her mind

On just how to fill her time

The only way she can unwind



Chorus



A. C. D. C.

She's got some other woman as well as me...


VINCE GILL lyrics - Love And Wealth



(Ira Louvin, Charlie Louvin)



Darling I am all alone in our little mountain home

It's lonely cold and loveless now inside

For your childish vows of love lasted only one short year

Then you went away to be another's bride



You will never know the pain

That I felt the day you left

Should you ever wed again

Let me wish you love and wealth



For that same old whippoorwill breaks the silence on the hill

As I stand and gaze upon it's faded wall

Where your picture used to hang in a little golden frame

And the vision of your smile I still recall


THE HOLLIES lyrics - Clown Service



(Clarke / Sylvester / Hicks)



[Chorus:]

Is that the clown service I'm callin'

I've made a fool of myself again

There's a hole in my pocket

A patch on my pants

My shoes let in water

I'm feeling you're here



Look up the smile service operator

I've got some frown lines that need to be read

I look in the mirror

I sigh all the time

The face that I see

I know it ain't mine



Ooh we lady

If I had my baby

I wouldn't be wastin' your time

Ooh we lady,

If I had my baby

I wouldn't be blockin', blockin' your line



Is that the love service

I'm callin' come on over mend my broken heart

Was it so silly, was Cupid so stupid

Or maybe it wasn't to be that way at all



[Chorus]



[Verse 1]



I look in the mirror

I sigh all the time

The face that I see I know it ain't mine

Was it so silly, was Cupid so stupid

Or maybe it wasn't to be that way at all


TRAFFIC lyrics - Shanghai Noodle Factory



(Winwood/Capaldi/Wood)



In a Shanghai Noodle Factr'y

Place where I once used to be

No where doing nothing

People there were made of steel

Tiny cogs in one big wheel

Turning never learning



Had to make a break

And soon I had to wake up feeling stronger, feeling stronger

In my island of dreams, with impossible schemes



In a Shanghai Noodle Factr'y

Place where I once used to be

No where doing nothing

People there were made of cans

Packed like roosters in a pen

Crowing, never knowing



Had to make a break

I knew I couldn't fake it any longer

Everything just aches

Soon I'd have to wake up feeling stronger, feeling stronger

In my island of dreams, with impossible schemes

FOREIGNER lyrics - Rev On The Red Line



Two in a row, everybody knows

At the green light you rev it on the red line

Been waitin' all week to get my wheels on the street

Get my hands on the wheel, slide down in the seat



She's wearin' new colors and runnin' pretty good

I got four hundred horses tucked under the hood

But there's no need to panic, it's under control

We're aerodynamic and ready to roll



Rev on the red line

You're on your own

Rev on the red line

Just let it go



Runnin' all night on Lake Avenue

It's a piece of cake

If you know what to do

You've got to lose a few

'Til the stakes get high

When the odds are right

You just blow by



And make no mistake, there's women who just wait

For the man and machine with the best time



Rev on the red line

You're on your own

Feels like a lifetime

But soon you'll know



Wasn't long ago I could've lost my wheels

Had to outrun the law, it was no big deal

I guess they had a grudge, they were hot on my tracks

I had to pay off the judge to get my license back

Now I need to pin those needles, got to feel that heat

Hear my motor screamin' while I'm tearin' up the street



Rev on the red line

You're on your own

Rev on the red line

Just let it go



Rev on, rev on

Rev on, rev on



Don't think I'll ever learn to slow down

Rev on, you'll still be here and I'll be gone

Rev on, rev on


BACHMAN-TURNER OVERDRIVE lyrics - Hey You



Hey you, you say you wanna change the world

It's alright, with me there's no regret

It's my turn, the circle game has brought me here

And I won't let down 'til every song is set



You realize now

You should have tried now, ooh

The music's gone now

You lost it somehow

Hey you, sha la la la

Hey you, sha la la la

Woo! Sha la la

Woo! Sha la la



Hey you, you say the race is much too fast

It's okay, with me I'm keeping pace

It's my game, the music is inside my head

For every one on top there's one who can't retrace



You realize now

You should have tried now, ooh ooh

The music's gone now, you'll find out

You lost it somehow

Hey you, sha la la la

Hey you, sha la la la

Woo! Sha la la

Woo! Sha la la



You realize now, ooh

You could have tried now

The music's gone now

You lost it somehow

Hey you, hey you, sha la la la

Hey you, sha la la la

Woo! Sha la la

Woo! Sha la la



Sha la la la, hey you, hey you, hey you (Woo!)

Sha la la la, ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, it's true (Woo!)

Sha la la la, no time, no time left, no time (Woo!)

Sha la la la, don't let me down, don't let me down (Woo!)

Sha la la la, you gotta learn to take it easy, baby (Woo!)

Sha la la la, music's over, it's over (Woo!)

Sha la la la, too late, too late, too late (Woo!)

Sha la la la, I should have realised it a lot sooner than this (Woo!)

Sha la la la, hey you

EMMYLOU HARRIS lyrics - Ashes By Now



(Rodney Crowell)



This morning is Monday where are you now

Teasin' my memory teaching me how to lay low

When I don't want to

Well love is elusive this I know now

It's making me crazy leaving me out

In the open when I don't want to



The moments of pleasures Never do last

Are gone like a suitcase full of your past

Long gone and in a hurry



Baby, I can't go through this again

I don't need to go down more then I've already been

Just like a wild fire you're running all over town

As much as you burn me baby I should be ashes by now



The second street beggars alone in their life

Drunk on a sidewalk to hide from the night

Like I am They're just like I am



Baby, I can't go through this again

I don't need to go down more then I've already been

Just like a wild fire you're running all over town

As much as you burn me baby I should be ashes by now



Just like a wild fire You're running all over town

As much as you burn me, baby I should be ashes by now

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah I should be ashes by now

EMMYLOU HARRIS lyrics - Today I Started Loving You Again



(Merle Haggard/Bonnie Owens)



Today I started loving you again

I'm right back where I've really always been

got over you just long enough to let my heartache mend

Then today I started loving you again



What a fool I was to think I could get by

With only these few million tears I've cried

I should have known the worst was yet to come

And that crying time for me had just begun

Cause today I started loving you again



I'm right back where I've really always been

I got over you just long enough to let my heartache mend

Then today I started loving you again


TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS lyrics - This Old Town



Living free is gaining on me

Can't keep ahead of my dreams

My relief turned out a thief

Smooth as rocks in the stream



This old time is a sad affair

You be glad you're not there

It ties your hands

It spikes your drink

I'd say more, but I can't think



Lazy Jim took a bottle with him

Tried to flag down a train

Left a note

Couldn't read what he wrote

A light came on in my brain



This old time is a sad affair

You be glad you're not there

It ties your hands

It spikes your drink

I'd say more, but I can't think



The hills are gold

Mornings are cold

Don't know a soul on the street

I keep to myself like everyone else

Nobody says much to me



Go to bed, fight thoughts in my head

In the two in between wake and sleep

Rats to kill, contracts to fill

It's on ice, but it won't keep



This old time is a sad affair

You be glad you're not there

It ties your hands

It spikes your drink

I'd say more, but I can't think



This old time is a sad affair

You be glad you're not there

It ties your hands

It spikes your drink

I'd say more, but I can't think

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN lyrics - Cadillac Ranch



Well, there she sits buddy justa gleaming in the sun

There to greet a working man when his day is done

I'm gonna pack my pa and I'm gonna pack my aunt

I'm gonna take them down to the Cadillac Ranch



Eldorado fins, whitewalls and skirts

Rides just like a little bit of heaven here on earth

Well buddy when I die throw my body in the back

And drive me to the junkyard in my Cadillac



Cadillac, Cadillac

Long and dark, shiny and black

Open up your engines let 'em roar

Tearing up the highway like a big old dinosaur



James Dean in that Mercury '49

Junior Johnson runnin' thru the woods of Caroline

Even Burt Reynolds in that black Trans-Am

All gonna meet down at the Cadillac Ranch



Cadillac, Cadillac

Long and dark, shiny and black

Open up them engines let 'em roar

Tearing up the highway just a big old dinosaur



Hey, little girlie in the blue jeans so tight

Drivin' alone through the Wisconsin night

You're my last love baby you're my last chance

Don't let 'em take me to the Cadillac Ranch



Cadillac, Cadillac

Long and dark, shiny and black

Pulled up to my house today

Came and took my little girl away

CHRIS ISAAK lyrics - Santa Claus Is Coming To Town



You better not pout,

Better not cry,

Better be good,

I'm telling you why:

Santa Claus is coming to town!



He's making a list,

Checking it twice,

Gonna find out who's naughty or nice.

Santa Claus is coming to town!



He knows when you've been sleeping,

He knows when you're awake.

He knows when you've been good or bad,

So be good for goodness sake!



You better not cry,

Better not pout,

Better be good

He's checking you out

Santa Claus is coming to town!



He knows when you've been sleeping,

He knows when you're awake.

He knows when you've been good or bad,

So be good for goodness sake, oh!



You better not pout,

Better not cry,

Better be sweet,

I'm telling you why:

Santa Claus is coming to town!

Santa Claus is coming to town!

Santa Claus is coming to town!



The big fat man is coming

The big fat man is coming

The big fat man is coming to town


JETHRO TULL lyrics - Queen And Country



The wind is on the river and the tide has turned too late,

so we're sailing for another shore where some other ladies wait.

To throw us silken whispers: catch us by the anchor chains ---

But we all laugh so politely and we sail on just the same.

For Queen and Country in the long dying day,

And it's been this way for five long years,

since we signed our souls away.

We bring back gold and ivory; rings of diamonds; strings of pearls ---

make presents to the government

so they can have their social whirl

With Queen and Country in the long dying day.

And it's been this way for five long years

since we signed our souls away.

They build schools and they build factories

With the spoils of battles won.

And we remain their pretty sailor boys ---

hold our heads up to the gun

Of Queen and Country in the long dying day.

And it's been this way for five long years

since we signed our souls away.

To Queen and Country in the long dying day.

And it's been this way for five long years

since we signed our souls away.


STING lyrics - The Snow It Melts The Soonest



(Trad; arranged by Sting)



Oh the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing

And the corn it ripens fastest when the frosts are setting in,

And when a woman tells me that my face she'll soon forget,

Before we part I want to croon, she's fain to follow yet.



Oh the snow it melts the soonest when the wind begins to sing,

And the swallow skims without a thought as long as it is Spring,

But when Spring goes and Winter grows, my loss and you'll be fain,

For all your pride you'll follow my across the stormy main.



Oh the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing,

The bee that flew when Summer shone, in Winter cannot sting,

I've seen a woman's anger melt between the night and morn

And it's surely not a harder thing to tame a woman's scorn.



Oh never say me farewell here, no farewell I'll receive,

For you shall take me to the stile, I'll kiss and take your leave,

But I'll stay here 'til the woodcock comes and the matler takes his wing

Since the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing.


T. REX lyrics - Knight



Night comes down just like a giant umbrella

Slows me down, got to get it together



Saxophone sage plays upon her doorstep

Evening's lies are dying all around him



Head of plumes and crimson ostrich feathers

8th Hussars' manners gush out of my bloodstream, my queen



Clad in drag of oriental beggar

Ju-ju beads holding me all together


KYLIE MINOGUE lyrics - Right Here, Right Now



My desire's getting stronger

I can't hold back any longer

Next to me you belong

Now I'm living for the moment

When you're gonna come on over to me



[Chorus:]

'Cos I want you to be

Right here right now

I believe

You were meant to be

Right here right now

Right here right now



I can't fight the situation

I'm giving in to

Your temptation

Every time I see your face

I need you more and more

When are you gonna come on over to me



[Chorus 2x]



'Cos I want you to be

Right here right now

'Cos I want you to be



Now I'm living for the moment

When you're gonna come over to me



[Chorus]



[Repeat and fade]


BEE GEES lyrics - Too Much Heaven



CHORUS:

Nobody gets too much heaven no more

It's much harder to come by

I'm waiting in line

Nobody gets too much love anymore

It's as high as a mountain

And harder to climb



Oh you and me girl

Got a lot of love in store

And it flows through you

And it flows through me

And I love you so much more

Then my life..I can see beyond forever

Ev'rything we are will never die

Loving's such a beautiful thing

Oh you make my world.. a summer day

Are you just a dream to fade away



Chorus..



You and me girl got a highway to the sky

We can turn away from the night and day

And the tears you had to cry

You're my life..

I can see a new tomorrow

Ev'rything we are will never die

Loving's such a beautiful thing

When you are to me, the light above

Made for all to see our presious love



Chorus..



Love is such a beautiful thing

You make my world a summer day

Are you just a dream to fade away



Chorus..



Nobody gets too much love anymore

It's as wide as a river and harder to cross



Chorus..(repeat and fade)

JOHNNY PRESTON lyrics - Cradle Of Love



(Jack Fautheree and Wayne Gray)



Well, rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop

When the wind blows the cradle will rock

So rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop

When the wind blows, mmm



Well, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick

Jack jumped over the candlestick

He jumped so high up above

He landed in the cradle of love



Well, rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop

When the wind blows the cradle will rock

So rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop

When the wind blows, mmm



Hi diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle

The cow jumped over the moon

And on the way down she met a turtle dove

Said "Let's go rockin' in the cradle of love"



Well, rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop

When the wind blows the cradle will rock

So rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop

When the wind blows, mmm



Jack and Jill went up the hill

To get a pail of water

Jack fell for Jill, gave her a shove

They fell into the cradle of love



Well, rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop

When the wind blows the cradle will rock

So rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop

When the wind blows, mmm


THE MCAULEY SCHENKER GROUP lyrics - What Happens To Me



Everyday I think about you

All the time crazy for you

Tell myself, again and again

'll be patient but then



I feel you deep in my heart

Sell my soul for just one part

Could it be ooh! That easy

After all you've said to me



You broke my confidence

Took it all. why wn'l you see

Makes no difference, to you it seems

What happens to me



Everyday I Wake without you

One more way to face - what is true

Life goes on, what else can I do

You're not here 'cause you don't need me



Never had to worry

Didn't need to care

Said you really loved me

But you're not there



Everyday when I think about you

Like a prayer to a child is new

In my thoughts you'll always be

The only one who could make me happy


THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS lyrics - Which Describes How You're Feeling



Which describes how you're feeling all the time

Which describes how you're feeling all the

Feeling all the time

There's this guy in the sky and he makes you want to

Want to make you sigh, like the time

When you felt like you're feeling all the time

And you sighed at the cracks in the ceiling all the time

You said "I'm feeling fine" but it didn't really rhyme

It didn't rhyme, overseas



Which describes how you're feeling all the time



It describes how you're feeling



Which describes how you're feeling all the time

When you lie that your life's unappealing all the time

But your lie doesn't rhyme with the word overseas

Overseas there's this guy

Who describes how you're feeling all the time

In his mind he can find how you're feeling all the time

From behind distant lines

Even straighter than his spine

Which is fine

Which is fine

And describes how you're feeling all the time

DORO PESCH lyrics - Alive



All alone, and night is falling

All along, I hear you calling

Telling lies, and sad goodbyes

The secrets will be safe inside of me



As long as I'm alive

You'll always be a part of me

As long as I'm alive

As long as I'm alive

For you I'll always keep the fire burning

Inside



I will keep this love alive

Let our souls be the first me satisfy

I will keep this love alive

Oh let our hearts be the only guide we follow



Everybody knows, you can't build a wall around us

I believe, time will tell

Our hearts will stay forever locked together



As long as I'm alive

For you I'll always keep the fire burning

Inside



Ahohoh I will keep this love alive

Let our souls be the first we satisfy

I will keep this love alive - ohohoh

Let our hearts be the only guide we follow



As long as I'm alive

As long as I'm alive

For you I'll always keep the fire burning

Inside



Ohoh I will keep this love alive

Let our souls be the first we satisfy!

I will keep this love alive - ahahohohoh

Let our hearts be the only guide we follow

As long as I'm alive - yeah! (ahah)

Oh!


ROD STEWART lyrics - Taking A Chance On Love



(Vernon Duke, J. Latouche and T. Fetter)



Here I go again

I hear those trumpets blow again

All aglow again

Taking a chance on love

Here I slide again

About to take that ride again

I'm starry eyed again

Taking a chance on love

I thought the cards were a frame-up

I never would try

But now I'm taking the game up

And the ace of hearts is high

All things are mending now

I see a rainbow blending now

We'll have a happy ending now

Taking a chance on love



[Instrumental break]



Here I slip again

About to take that trip again

Got my grip again

Taking a chance on love

Now I prove again

That I can make life move again

In the groove again

Taking a chance on love

I walk around with a horseshoe

In clover I lie

And brother rabbit of course you

Better kiss your foot good-bye

On the ball again

I'm riding for a fall again

I'm gonna give my all again

Taking a chance on love

Taking a chance on love


STYX lyrics - Young Man



(James Young, Rick Young)



People say with age there comes experience

But answers seem more distant every day

The good news and the bad news come together

What politician played this trick you say?



Who can we get to win the fight?

A young man

Who can we get to make love all night?

A young man

Who do we send away to die?

A young man

I heard a lonely woman cry for

A young man



Ideologies mean very little

When in practicality they're quite the same

If God is love how can Her words be twisted

Into holy wars where men will kill and maim



Who can we get to win the fight?

A young man

Who can we get to make love all night?

A young man

Who do we send away to die?

A young man

I heard a lonely woman cry for

A young man



Come home my son, we'll give you a rest

Welcome my son, we'll give you the best

Time's stowaway, the young man

So short are the days, of the young man

BACHMAN-TURNER OVERDRIVE lyrics - Freeways



Drivin' in a beat up car

The highway is long but we've come so far

Two thousand miles from home

We got to find someplace that we can belong



But, we know, the freeways in life are all pointing us home

Don't you know, nothing in this life could mean anymore

Freeways, freeways



Headin' out into the sun

We've been to the stars, and we've only begun

Nothin's gonna change our mind

There's songs to be sung, but we've left them behind

Long love found of long by the dove

Cute couple [x2]



Simply cought up [x2]

Happy and then [x2]

DAVID GILMOUR lyrics - Blue Light



(Gilmour)



She's a blue light, yes it cannot be denied

She will give you back your pride

She squeezes, she freezes, she does what she pleases

But she says she thinks of others, all the time



You must rise to her defense when she's in danger

Turn around and you're looking at a stranger

And leads you into places even angels fear to tread

She's a blue light



She's not amused, when you're trying to upstage her

So you choose to do nothing to enrage her

'Cause under her mantle you feel safe from the cold

And you're safe from the danger of ever growing old

She's a blue light



I'm not very good with this funky sort of thing, But, uh,

Sometimes, when the inspiration strikes, I can get down

With the best of them.


LYLE LOVETT lyrics - Up In Indiana



Up in Indiana where the tall corn grows

I do a little thinkin bout a girl named Rose

Hair blond as hay and long as rope

Up in Indiana where the tall corn grows



Up in Indiana where the tall corn grows

I do a little thinkin bout a girl named Rose

Hell don't care but Heaven knows

I'm up in Indiana where the tall corn grows



Mama say a prayer for your only son

God, forgive him, all the wrong he's done

All he ever wanted is to have some fun

And now he's up in Indiana till his time is done



Up in Indiana where the tall corn grows

I do a little thinkin bout a girl named Rose

Hair blond as hay and long as rope

Up in Indiana where the tall corn grows



She looked over 22

A man could drown in eyes so blue

And now I've got some time to kill

In a little town called Henryville



Up in Indiana where the tall corn grows

I do a little thinkin bout a girl named Rose

Hair blond as hay and long as rope

Up in Indiana where the tall corn grows



I do a little thinkin bout a girl named Rose

Hell don't care but Heaven knows

I'm up in Indiana where the tall corn grows



Working on the line ain't the life I know

Wish I was floatin' on the river out at night [Incomprehensible]

Laying on the bank with a fishing bow

Instead of cutting this corn and losing my soul



I do a little thinkin bout a girl named Rose

Hell don't care but Heaven knows

I'm up in Indiana where the tall corn grows



Miles and miles as they march back

They lift their ears up to the sky

Standing tall and satisfied

Like to try to run but I just might die



I'm up in Indiana where the tall corn grows

Up in Indiana where the tall corn grows

Up in Indiana where the tall corn grows


TESLA lyrics - Need Your Lovin'



(Keith, Luccketta, Skeoch)



I'll be lovin' you come morning, day to day, dust to dawn

Feelin' you're the reason I won't be leavin' so

Love you in the evening, supper time and afternoon

Your days of happiness beside the month of June



Ooh, don't want my yesterday, to wake me up, slap me in the face

Ooh, don't let my yesterday, wrap you up and carry you away

Ooh I need your lovin', without you baby love don't mean nothing

Oooh I need your lovin', 's got to be your lovin' or nothing



January, and in March, February, June

Any day beside of that couldn't be too soon

My life without you babe is a heart that's torn

Season of love for you, storm without a warn



Ooh, didn't want my yesterday, woke me right up, and slapped me in the face

Ooh, you let my yesterday, wrap you right up and carry you away

Ooh I need your lovin', without you baby love don't mean nothing

Oooh I need your lovin', 's got to be your lovin' or nothing



Took all my yesterdays of sorrow, and threw them all away

Took all that I could take, or could borrow

'Cos today's yesterday, today is yesterday's tomorrow - whoa!



[Solo]



Ooh, go away my yesterday, can't take that much, I'll look it in the face

Ooh, wish all my yesterdays, would've packed it up and carried it away

Ooh I need your lovin', 'cos without you baby love don't mean nothing

Oooh I need your lovin', 's got to be your lovin' or nothing - whoa!



Ooh, ooh, ooh yeah, it's your love or nothing

Ooh, all I've got to say it must be your love or nothing

YELLO lyrics - Friday Smile



Tip top, de vi de dee

It only works with you and me

Tip top, de vi de doo

It only works with me and you



I like to see you smiling

It's all, it's all I need on Friday night

I know you're gonna drive me

At the exact right speed into the light



Show me the way to drive

I'm on the highway of love to dive

Into the world above

We're gonna hit the star of love



I know you're gonna drive me

At the exact right speed into the light

Might be the way you're smiling

Your smile your smile so bright on Friday night


JOHN (COUGAR) MELLENCAMP lyrics - Whenever We Wanted



We weren't afraid of nothing

Wasn't nothing we couldn't do

She held her breath once for seven minutes

And never turned blue



She could burn a woman down

If she felt she'd been unkind

or if she thought she was coming on to me

It drove her out of her mind



[Chorus:]

Oh yeah, it's true

We just did what we did

Whenever we wanted to

Yeah, it's true

We just did what we wanted

Whenever we wanted to



She was my very best friend

My biggest enemy

On judgment day we would go either way

It was all the same you see



She was not afraid of Satan

In fact she thought he was a joke

Said she'd tear off his tail

And run her fist down his throat



[Chorus]



She was the apple of temptation

The apple of my eye

Used to rest on a bed of burning coals

Every single night



And I know she's out there somewhere

She's wrestling in the bones

With confetti in her hair

You can bet she's not alone



[Chorus]


CAMEL lyrics - No Easy Answer



(Latimer)



No easy answers

come to me

that i can see



No easy answers

were close at hand

when i began

to ask the questions one by one

so all the loose ends stay undone



An easy answer

could help me out

relieve my doubt



Is there an answer

or will i be

never to see

the light that shines at jorney's end

or will i just go around again



You know it's always easy to say

you've gotta take it day by day

but sometimes it can be hard...



You know the answer's undefined

It's only ever in your mind.


THE EAGLES lyrics - Most Of Us Are Sad



Most of us are sad

No one lets it show

I've been shadows of myself

How was I to know?

Tell me scarlet sun

what will time allow?

We have brought our children

here Who can save them now?

Oh, Weeping woman try to smile

Like the coming dawn

Most of us are sad it's true

Still we must go on

Love was here today

Oh the sun was bright

I will sing you faraway

Love is here tonight

Most of us are sad

No one lets it show

I've been shadows of myself

How was I to know?


ELLA FITZGERALD lyrics - Mountain Greenery



On the first of May, it is moving day,

Spring is here, so blow your job,

Throw your job away!



Now's the time to trust,

To your wanderlust,

In the city's dust you wait, must you wait

Just you wait.......!



In a mountain greenery,

Where God paints the scenery

Just two crazy people together.



While you love your lover,

Let blue skies, be your cover-let,

When it rains we'll laugh at the weather.



And if you're good,

I'll search for wood,

So you can cook... while I stand look-in'



Beans could get no keener reception in a beanery

Bless our mountain greenery home!



Mosquitoes here,

Won't bite you dear,

I'll let them sting, me on the finger!



We could find no cleaner retreat from life's machinery

Then our mountain greenery home.

PATTI SMITH lyrics - Going Under



Sun is rising on the water

Light is dancing again

Let's go under where the sun beams

Let's go under my friend



Are we sleeping

Are we dreaming

Are we dancing again

Is it heaven

Crack it open

and we'll slide down

its stream



We can hold on (I'm sure)

To the sea's foaming mane

It will serve us

We'll surface

and we'll plunge back again



Sun is rising on the water

Light is dancing like a flame

There's no burning where the sun beams

Oh it's such a lovely game



Does the sea dream (I'm sure)

We are here, we attend

We are bells on the shore

where the tolling suspends



Who will decide the shape of things

The shift of being

Who will perceive

When life is new

Shall we divide and become another

Who is due for gift upon gift

Who will decide

Shall we swim over and over

The curve of a wing

Its destination ever changing



Sun is rising on the water

Light is dancing like a flame

Let's go waltzing on the water

Let's go under again



Let's go under

Going under


ENIGMA lyrics - Le Roi Est Mort, Vive Le Roi!



X RAY Delta 1, this is Mission Control

Roger you are one nine - three zero



Things are changing

But nothing changes

And still there are changes

Le roi est mort, vive le roi!


BLACK SABBATH lyrics - Neon Knights



Oh no, here it comes again

Can't remember when we came so close to love before

Hold on, good things never last

Nothing's in the past, it always seems to come again

Again and again and again



Cry out to legions of the brave

Time again to save us from the jackals of the street

Ride out, protectors of the realm

Capatin's at the helm, sail across the sea of lights



Circles and rings, dragons and kings

Weaving a charm and a spell

Blessed by the night, holy and bright

Called by the toll of the bell



Bloodied angels fast descending

Moving on a never-bending light

Phantom figures free forever

Out of shadows, shining ever-bright



Neon Knights!

Neon Knights! all right!



Cry out to legions of the brave

Time again to save us from the jackals of the street

Ride out, protectors of the realm

Capatin's at the helm, sail across the sea of lights

Again and again, again and again and again



Neon Knights!

Neon Knights!

All right!

RANDY NEWMAN lyrics - Going Up The Country



Gotta get goin', cause I can't stay here long, now.

Cause I'm tired of the way, I've been dogged around.

Well, I've got to roam, maybe find me a brand-new home.



I'm goin' up the country, baby don't you wanna go?

I'm goin' up the country, baby don't you wanna go?

I'm goin' to some place where I've never been before.



I'm goin', I'm goin' where the water tastes like wine.

Well, I'm goin' where the water tastes like wine.

You can jump in the water and stay drunk all the time.



[Solo]



I'm gonna leave this city, got to get away.

I'm gonna leave this city, got to get away.

All this fussin' and fightin', man you know I sure can't stay.



Now baby, packin' up the truck you know I got to leave today.

Just exacly where I'm goin' I can not say, but we might even leave the USA.

It's a brand-new game and I don't wanna play.



[Solo]



No use of you running or screaming and crying

But you got a home man, long as I got mine.



Gotta get goin', gotta get goin', gotta get goin', gotta get goin'.

Gotta get goin', well I'm goin', well I'm goin'...



Gotta get goin', I can't stay here long now.

Cause I'm tired of the way I've been dogged around.

Well, I've got to roam, maybe find me a brand new home...


BRIAN WILSON lyrics - On A Holiday



A pirate with a tune on a holiday

A lazy Mr. Moon on a getaway

And isn't that a mood for a milky way

A ukelele lady around a lei



Rock, rock, roll

Rock, rock, roll Plymouth Rock, roll over

For a holiday



Abash and forth a starboard course

With north abeam, sherry of course

The men will share some sport and now me hearty

Not the rum of Carib' scum

It's port tonight - drink up and come

Un-weigh the anchor Yank and we will party!



A shanty town, a shanty in Waikiki

And juxtapose a man with a mystery

A blue Hawaiian captures his melody

Pauahi O Kalani is what he sings to me



Rock, rock, roll

Rock, rock, roll Plymouth Rock, roll over

For a holiday



Long, long ago, long ago



Whisperin' wind sent my wind chimes a-tinklin'

Whisperin' wind sent my wind chimes a-tinklin'

Whisperin' wind sent my wind chimes a-tinklin'


THE BEATLES lyrics - And Your Bird Can Sing



(Lennon/McCartney)



You tell me that you've got everything you want

And your bird can sing

But you don't get me, you don't get me



You say you've seen Seven Wonders and your bird is green

But you can't see me, you can't see me



When your prized possessions start to wear you down

Look in my direction, I'll be round, I'll be round



When your bird is broken will it bring you down

You may be awoken, I'll be round, I'll be round



You tell me that you've heard every sound there is

And your bird can swim

But you can't hear me, you can't hear me


BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - What About Today?



The tears I'm shedding now

I hear will dry in time

The fears I'm fearing now

I hear will die in time

But while I wait around for tomorrow

Watching life drift away

What about yes What about today?

I know if I just wait

The sun will shine some day

And when it does the weather will be fine someday

And while the skies I search for tomorrow

Stay the same shade of gray

What about yes what about today?

'Till Nirvana comes What about today?

'Till Messiah comes what about today?

'Till the mountains move and oceans part

And angels sing and life can start

What about yes what about today?

I can't help wondering if tomorrow ever comes

And what's my life been lived for if it never comes

I've heard a lot of toasts to tomorrow

But none of them ever say

What about today...what about today?

'Till nirvana comes What about today

'Till messiah comes what about today

'Till the mountains move and oceans part

And Angels sing and life can start

What about yes what about today?

I can't help wondering if tomorrow ever comes

And what's my life been lived for if it never comes

I've heard a lot of toasts to tomorrow

But none of them ever say

What about yes what about........

Today?

GEORGE HARRISON lyrics - Soft-Hearted Hana



I ate it and at once my eyes could see you

No sooner had I ooped it down

I felt so far off from the ground I stood on.



My legs they seemed to me like high-rise buildings

My head was high up in the sky

My skin the sun began to fry like bacon.



And then somebody old appeared and asked had I come far. . .

And hadn't they just seen me up on Haleakala. . .

I kept on body surfing to pretend I hadn't heard

There was someone there beside me, swimming like Richard III

And I'm still smiling



Seven naked native girls swam seven sacred pools. . .

Lone-ranger smoking doobies said you're breaking all the rules. . .

You'd better get your clothes on or else there'll be a row. . .

If it wasn't for my sunstroke I would take you on right now. . .

And I'm still smiling.



I fell in love with my Soft-Hearted Hana

She entered right in through my heart

And now although we're miles apart

I still feel her.



She lives beneath the crater in the meadow

She moves among the fruit and grain

You can meet her after heavy rain has fallen.

TOAD THE WET SPROCKET lyrics - She Cried



Solitaire, such a fateful game

She turns her cards and writes her name on the napkin

Mow she turns another card

She dreams about the house and romance

He promised but won't deliver



She waits alone

With dried out hopes

And dormant phone

She waits for years

And fantasies melt

New ones appear

But they won't help



And again she catches him

Eye pulls away with light too dim

She calls his name and runs around

But he was faster

All alone in a bad part of town



She waits again

With dried out hopes

And things made for him

A little ride, a little fun was all

He held her tight, got tired and then let go



The strain on her heart

She believed a lying blackheart

Painted with promises

Then he left her on the floor

With only the mirror to curse

"Should've known better"

But how she cried...


SPINAL TAP lyrics - The Majesty Of Rock



There's a pulse in the new-born sun

A beat in the heat of noon

There's a song as the day grows long

And a tempo in the tides of the moon



It's all around us and it's everywhere

And it's deeper than royal blue

And it feels so real you can feel the feeling



And that's the majesty of rock

The fantasy of roll

The ticking of the clock

The wailing of the soul

The prisoner in the dock

The digger in the hole

We're in this together and ever



In the shade of a jungle glade

Or the rush of the crushing street

On the plain, on the foamy main

You can never escape from the beat



It's in the mud and it's in your blood

And it's conquest is complete

And all that you can do is just surrender



To the majesty of rock

The pageantry of roll

The crowing of the cock

The running of the foal

The shepherd with his flock

The miner with his coal

We're in this together and ever



When we die, do we hunt the sky?

Do we lurk in the murk of the seas?

What then? Are we born again?

Just to sit asking questions like these?



I know, for I told me so

And I'm sure each of you quite agrees

The more it stays the same, the less it changes



And that's the majesty of rock

The mystery of roll

The darning of the sock

The scoring of the goal

The farmer takes a wife

The barber takes a pole

We're in this together and ever

ELTON JOHN lyrics - Street Boogie



Street guys, walking, dancing

Sidewalk, music, hot thing

They got their boxes tuned into their favorite show

As they truck on down the road

Is that the radio

Yes that's the radio

Let it go, let it go, let it go



Street boogie got a hold on me

Street boogie gonna set me free

Street boogie keep a hold on me

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright with me



Street boogie, it's the city beat

Street boogie, on the boogie street

Street boogie, yeah and that's for me

Street boogie, street boogie, street boogie, street boogie



Traffic, skater, rolling

Sharing, music, sure thing

He got his shoulder holster turned a way up loud

As he wheels his way around

Is that the radio

Yes that's the radio

Catch the sound, catch the sound, catch the sound



Boogie, street boogie

Boogie, street boogie


QUEEN lyrics - Don't Try So Hard



(Queen)



If you're searching out for something -

Don't try so hard

If you're feeling kinda nothing -

Don't try so hard

When your problems seem like mountains

You feel the need to find some answers

You can leave them for another day

Don't try so hard

But if you fall and take a tumble -

It won't be far

If you fail you mustn't grumble -

Thank your lucky stars

Just savour every mouthful

And treasure every moment

When the storms are raging round you

Stay right where you are

Don't try so hard

Oooh don't take it all to heart

It's only fools they make these rules

Don't try so hard

One day you'll be a sergeant major

Oh you'll be so proud

Screaming out your bloody orders

Hey but not too loud

Polish all your shiny buttons

Dressed as lamb instead of mutton

But you never had to try

To stand out from the crowd

Oh what a beautiful world

Is this the life for me

Oh what a beautiful world

It's the simple life for me

Oh don't try so hard

Oh don't take it all to heart

It's only fools - they make these rules

Don't try so hard

Don't try so hard


LOREENA MCKENNITT lyrics - Full Circle



(Loreena McKennitt)



Stars were falling deep in the darkness

As prayers rose softly, petals at dawn

And as I listened, your voice seemed so clear

So calmly you were calling your god



Somewhere the sun rose, o'er dunes in the desert

Such was the stillness, I ne'er felt before

Was this the question, pulling, pulling, pulling you

In your heart, in your soul, did you find rest there?



Elsewhere a snowfall, the first in the winter

Covered the ground as the bells filled the air

You in your robes sang, calling, calling, calling him

In your heart, in your soul, did you find peace there?

JOHN DENVER lyrics - Southwind



(Pedersen)



The wheels go down, I'm back in town, three months full of summer and nothing to do.

It's been a strain at the reins but the picture remains,

southwind's blowing my love to you, southwind's blowing my love.



For sixty-one days I got caught in the maze, twenty thousand watching the songs go by.

The lights come down in an East Texas town,

southwind's blowing my love to you, southwind's blowing my love.



I couldn't wait until, till I got back home to you.

Or to get my fill of these California summer nights.



It's good to be home, my, how the children have grown.

Screen door's barking out that old familiar tune.

Games at the park, but honey, wait until dark,

southwind's blowing my love to you, southwind's blowing my love.



I couldn't wait until, till I got back home to you.

Or to get my fill of these California summer nights.



The wheels go down, I'm back in town, three months full of summer and nothing to do.

It's been a strain at the reins but the picture remains,

southwind's blowing my love to you, southwind's blowing my love.

southwind's blowing my love to you, southwind's blowing my love.

All my love, yeah, all of my love to you. All my love to you, yeah.


FRANK SINATRA lyrics - Oh! What It Seemed To Be



(B. Benjamin, G. D. Weiss, F. Carle)



[Recorded April 30, 1963, Los Angeles]



It was just a neighborhood dance

That's all that it was

But, oh, what it seemed to be

It was like a masquerade ball

With costumes and all

'Cause you were at the dance with me

It was just a ride on a train

That's all that it was

But, oh, what it seemed to be

It was like a trip to the stars

To Venus and Mars

'Cause you were on the train with me

And when I kissed you, darling

It was more than just a thrill for me

It was the promise, darling

Of the things that fate had willed for me

It was just a wedding in June

That's all that it was

But, oh, what it seemed to be

It was like a royal affair

With everyone there

'Cause you said "Yes, I do" to me


MOODY BLUES lyrics - Tortoise And The Hare



You know he's moving fast,

Be he's still going slow,

He's ahead in the race,

And there is not far to go,

And your load is so heavy

And your legs want to rest.

It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.



You think he's way up in front

But he's so far behind.

He's asleep in the grass,

And he's run out of time.

While your load was so heavy

You never wanted to stop.

It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.



Your friend is heavy

But he was ready

And never stopped for a while

And while you were sleeping

He went on keeping the final line in his mind.

It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.



It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.

Your friend is heavy

But he was ready

And never stopped for a while

And while you were sleeping

He went on keeping the final line in his mind.

It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.

It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.

It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.

It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.

It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.


JUDAS PRIEST lyrics - Delivering The Goods



(Tipton/Downing/Halford)



Feeling like we're, ready to kick tonight

No hesitating, my bodies aching

Looking for some action, satisfaction all right

Charging, vein faced, as active as one-hundred solid proof

Mega town, Leviathan, we're ready to hit the roof



You better watch out and hold on tight

We're heading your way like dynamite

Uhhh, Delivering the goods

Uhhh, Delivering the goods



Shake down, rock 'em boys, crack that whip strap mean

Pulse rave, air waves, battle lies in every place we've been

Stealing your hearts all across the land

Hot blood doing good, we're going to load you with our brand



You better watch out and hold on tight

We're heading your way like dynamite

Uhhh, Delivering the goods

Yeah, Delivering the goods



Have your way

Stealing your hearts

Well we don't pull no punches, we aim where the crunch is

The bound to do most damage to your brain

If you're looking for it mellow

you're nothing more than yellow

Gonna do it again and again

We'll beat you to submission

So you might as well surrender

You do gotta learn your lesson

'Cause there ain't nobody here to defend your heart



Faster, higher

'Til it seems that we're gonna break

Ohh shootin' further, giving more than you're ever gonna take

Weaving with your heads

Crushed out on the floor

Begging for mercy

Be careful or we'll do it some more



You better watch out and hold on tight

We're heading your way like dynamite

Uhhh, Delivering the goods

Uhhh, Delivering the goods

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN lyrics - Human Touch



You and me we were the pretenders

We let it all slip away

In the end what don't surrender

Well the world just strips away



Girl ain't no kindness in the face of strangers

Ain't gonna find no miracles here

Well you can wait on your blessings my darlin'

But I got a deal for you right here



I ain't lookin' for prayers or pity

I ain't comin' 'round searchin' for a crutch

I just want someone to talk to

And a little of that human touch

Just a little of that human touch



Ain't no mercy on the streets of this town

Ain't no bread from heavenly skies

Ain't nobody drawin' wine from this blood

It's just you and me tonight



Tell me in a world without pity

Do you think what I'm askin's too much?

I just want something to hold on to

And a little of that human touch

Just a little of that human touch



Oh girl that feeling of safety you prize

Well it comes with a hard hard price

You can't shut off the risk and the pain

Without losin' the love that remains

We're all riders on this train



So you been broken and you been hurt

Show me somebody who ain't

Yeah I know I ain't nobody's bargain

But hell a little touchup

And a litte paint...



You might need somethin' to hold on to

When all the answers they don't amount to much

Somebody that you can just talk to

And a little of that human touch



Baby in a world without pity

Do you think what I'm askin's too much?

I just want to feel you in my arms

And share a little of that human touch...
