Bob Dylan This wheel's on Fire
only registered users can see external links

If your MEMORY serves you well
We were gonna meet again and wait
So I'm goin' to unpack all my things
And sit before it gets too late

No man alive will come to you
With another tale to tell
But you know that we shall meet again
If your memory serves you well

This wheel's on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode

If your memory serves you well
I was gonna confiscate your lace
And wrap it up in a sailor's knot
And hide it in your case

If I knew for sure that it was yours
But it was oh so hard to tell
And you know that we shall meet again
If your memory serves you well

This wheel's on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode

If your memory serves you well
You'll remember that you're the one
That called on me to call on them
To give you your favors done

And after every plan had failed
And there was nothing more to tell
You knew that we would meet again
If your memory served you well

This wheel's on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode

If your memory serves you well
If your memory serves you well

Memory Is A Bitch---PARATYPE

THIS IS THE DAY I LEARNED
TO DIVIDE SEX AND LOVE
TWO SIDES OF A SICK NIGHTMARE

WHEN GOOD OLD TIMES PRETEND
TO BE MY ONLY FRIEND
I FIND MYSELF IN QUICK SAND

THE PAST KILLED ME
(SELF DESTRUCTION)
MEMORIES
DO NOT BRING LUCK
(NOR SALVATION)
BACK TO ME

I WISHED ME BACK BUT CAN'T REWIND
THE SIN HAS BLINDED ME THAT TIME
DELUSION'S SHORT REMORSE IS LONG

WHEN GOOD OLD TIMES PRETEND
TO BE MY ONLY FRIEND
I FIND MYSELF IN QUICK SAND

THE PAST KILLED ME
(SELF DESTRUCTION)
MEMORIES
DO NOT BRING LUCK
(NOR SALVATION)
BACK TO ME

THE PAST KILLED ME AGAIN
THE PAST KILLED ME AGAIN
THE PAST KILLED ME

THIS IS THE DAY I LEARNED
TO DIVIDE SEX AND LOVE

MEMORY IS A BITCH

THE PAST KILLED ME
(SELF DESTRUCTION)
MEMORIES
DO NOT BRING LUCK
(NOR SALVATION)
BACK TO ME

THE PAST KILLED ME AGAIN
THE PAST KILLED ME AGAIN
ME AGAIN

nancy sinatra - don't mean nothing
only registered users can see external links

Sometimes you feel it
Other times you're bored
You understood me once
But now you're lost
You weren't sorry
For things that you said
And it don't mean nothing
Cause we're already dead

You know I mean it
You know I'm scared
I've seen a hundred like you
Running out of air
You know I love you
But you soon will see
That it don't mean nothing
Till you figure out what it means

It's clear to me, you're like
The oceans and the light
Try and you'll remember what you used to be
It's clear to me this day can take you for a ride
A place that you once longed to be
I know you're tired
I know you're hurt
One day, I promise, BABY
You gonna make it work
But for now the question
Is laying in our hands
And it don't mean nothing
Till we figure out the plan..

Nancy Sinatra - Don't Let Him Waste Your Time
only registered users can see external links

You can stay all night if you want to
You can hang out with all of his friends
You can go and meet his mother and father
Better make sure that's where it ends

'Cause, BABY there's just one thing that you've gotta know

Let him read your palm and guess your sign
Let him take you home and treat you fine
But, BABY
Don't let him waste your time
Don't let him waste your time

'Cause the years flash by in an instant
And you wonder what he's waiting for
Then some skinny bitch walks by in some hot pants
And he's running out the door

So remember that one thing you've gotta know

Let him read your palm and guess your sign
Let him take you home and treat you so fine
But, BABY
Don't let him waste your time
Don't let him waste your time

You ain't getting no younger
And you've got nothing to show
So tell him that it's now or never
And then
Go, go, go, go, go

He can have his space
He can take his time
He can kiss you where the sun don't shine

Oh, BABY
Don't let him waste your time
Don't let him waste your time

(from the same 2004 LP as above)

Eartha Kitt-Santa Baby

Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree for me
Been an awful good girl
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, a '54 convertible too convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you, dear
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be also good
If you'll check off my Christmas list
Santa baby, I want a yacht and really that's not a lot
Been an angel all year
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa honey one thing I really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex and checks
Sign your 'x' on the line
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean on the phone
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry, tonight

Lady Gaga & Joseph Gordon Levitt - Baby, it's cold outside

only registered users can see external links

Well, my lady.
It's been grand, but I think, I gotta go.
(No!)

I really can't stay.
(Baby, it's cold outside.)
I've got to go away.
(But, baby, it's cold outside.)
This evening has been.
(So happy that you dropped in.)
So, very nice.
(I'll hold your hands, they feel like ice.)

My mother will start to worry.
(Beautiful, what's the hurry?)
My father will be pacing the floor.
(Listen to fire place roar.)
But really I'd better scurry.
Or maybe just a half a drink more.
(Put the record on, while I pour.)

But the neighbours might think.
(Baby, it's bad out there.)
Say, what's in this drink?
(There ain't any cabs out there.)
I feel as I'm in.
(Your eyes are better than sin.)
Some crazy spell.
(I love your hair it looks so swell.)

I'd rather say, "No, no, no, sir."
(What if I move in closer?)
At least, I'm gonna say, that I tried.
(What's up with the hurt of my pride?)
I really can't stay.
Baby,
(Ah) Baby, it's cold outside.

I simply must go.
(Baby, it's cold outside.)
The answer is, "No."
(But, baby, it's cold outside.)
I seen this welcome has been.
(How lucky that you dropped in.)
So, nice & warm.
(Look out the window at that storm.)

My sister, will be suspicious.
(Gosh, your lips look delicious.)
My brother, will be there on the floor.
(Waves upon a tropical shore.)
My friends, oh, their minds are vicious.
(Gosh, your lips look delicious.)
Or maybe just a cigarette more.
(Never such a blizzard before.)

I've got to get home.
(Baby, you'll freeze out there.)
Why don't you lend me another coat?
(It's up to your knees out there.)
You've really been grand, but can't you see?
(Oh, how you do this thing to me.)

There's bound to be talk tomorrow.
(Think of my life long sorrow.)
At least, there will be plenty, implied.
(If you caught pneumonia & died.)
I really can't stay.
Oh, oh.
(Ah) Baby, it's cold outside.

Kinky Friedman: Get your Biscuits in the Oven & your Buns in the Bed

only registered users can see external links

You uppity women, I don't understand
Why you gotta go and try to act like a man,
But before you make your weekly visit to the shrink
You better occupy the kitchen, liberate the sink.

"Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed,"
That's what I to my baby said,
"Women's liberation is a-going to your head,
"Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed."

Early every morning you're out on the street
Passing out pamphlets to everyone you meet.
You gave up your Maiden Form for Lent
And now the front of your dress has an air scoop vent.

Every single great man that's ever come along
Had a little woman always tellin' him that he's wrong.
Eve said to Adam, "Here's an apple for you, Hoss"
And Delilah defoliated Samson's moss.

Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed
That's what I to my BABY said,
Women's liberation is a-goin' to your head,
Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed.

Meanie minded harpies are breaking all the laws
Tearing up their girdles and a-burning up their bras,
Now the air is dirty and the sex is clean
And your coffee makes my hair turn green.

So damned emancipated in your mind and your body,
Gonna have to cancel all your lessons in karate.
If you can't love a male chauvinist
You better cross me off of your shopping list.

J J Cale The Problem

only registered users can see external links

Have you heard the news that's going 'round here
The man in charge has got to go
Cause he dances 'round the problem, boy
And the problem is the man in charge you know
Now, the young knows what I'm talking 'bout
It's a con in the old man's game
The man in charge, he don't know what he's doing
He don't know the world has changed
Power seems to be so far up
The man on the street ain't got a clue
The high top cats running your life
Think the problem is me and you

Born in a time that has gone by
The old tell the young what to do
Have you heard the news that's going 'round here
The problem is the man in charge of you
The problem is the man in charge of you
Power seems to be so far up
The man on the street ain't got a clue
The high top cats running your life
Think the problem is me and you
Have you heard the news that's going 'round here
The man in charge has to go

And moved it all around
There ain't no river runnin'
No water can't be found

Stone river
Water ain't runnin' no more
Fish ain't swimmin'
Ain't no fish around nowhere

Ain't nobody seem to care
They botteled up and dammed it
Choked it up and jammed it
Killed the life around it
And stole it like a bandit

Stone river
Water ain't runnin' no more
What used to be a river
Now is just an empty site
Ain't no vegetation
It's just an agitation
It don't seem right
There ain't no trees a growin'
No animals are showin'
What used to be a stream
Is now just a dream

I can help, I've got two strong arms, I can help
It would sure do me good to do you good

I forgot to remember to forget - Elvis


only registered users can see external links


I forgot to remember to FORGET her
I can't seem to get her off my mind
I thought I'd never miss her
But I found out somehow
I think about her almost all the time
The day she went away
I made myself a promise
That I'd soon forget we ever met
But something sure is wrong
'Cause I'm so blue and lonely
I forgot to remember to forget
The day she went away
I made myself a promise
That I'd soon forget we ever met
Well, but something sure is wrong
'Cause I'm so blue and lonely
I forgot to remember to forget

Forget that girl - The Monkees


only registered users can see external links


FORGET that girl,
She'll only make you sad someday.
Forget that girl,
She'll never make you happy.
Stay away from her, my friend,
Stay away from her.
Forget that girl,
She'll only bring you down again.
Forget that girl,
She'll only make you lonely.
Stay away from her, my friend,
Stay away from her.
There was a time when she could really love you
When she was thinking only of you
But now she's thrown herself above you
And there's nothing you can do.
Forget that girl,
Even tho you find it's hard.
Forget that girl,
Even though you love her.
She's in love with him, my friend,
She's in love with him.
Oh yeah, she's in love with him

Bob Dylan I Don't Believe You
only registered users can see external links

I can't understand, she let go of my hand
And left me here facing the wall
I'd sure like to know, why she did go
But I can't get close to her at all

Though we kissed through the wild blazing night time
She said she would never forget
But now morning is clear it's like I ain't here
She acts like we never met

It's all new to me, like some mystery
It could even be like a myth
But it's hard to think on, that she's the same one
That last night I was with

From darkness, dreams are deserted
Am I still dreamin' yet ?
I wish she'd unlock, her voice once and talk
'Stead of actin' like we never met

If she ain't feelin' well then why don't she tell
'Stead of turnin' her back to my face
Without any doubt, she seems too far out
For me to return to her chase

And her skirt it swayed as a guitar played
Her mouth was watery and wet
But now something has changed, for she ain't the same
She just acts like we never have met

If I didn't have to guess, I'd gladly confess
To anything I might've tried
If I was with her too long or have done something wrong
I'd wish she tell me what it is, I'll run and hide

Though the night ran swirling and whirling
I remember her whispering yet
But evidently she don't, evidently she won't
She just acts like we never have met

I'll leavin' today, I'll be on my way
Of this I can't say very much
But if you want me to, I can be just like you
And pretend that we never have touched

And if anybody asks me
"Is it easy to FORGET?"
I'll say, "It's easily done, you just pick anyone
And pretend that you never have met"

Bob Dylan True Love Tends To Forget

I'm getting weary looking in my baby's eyes
When she's near me she's so hard to recognize.
But I finally realize there's no room for regret,
True love, true love, true love tends to forget.

Hold me, baby be near,
You told me that you'd be sincere.
But every day of the year like playin' Russian roulette,
True love, true love, true love tends to forget.

I was lyin' down in the reeds without any oxygen
I saw you in the wilderness among the men.
I saw you drift into infinity and come back again
All you got to do is wait and I'll tell you when.

You're a tearjerker, baby, but I'm under your spell,
You're a hard worker, baby, but I know you well.
And this weekend in hell is making me sweat,
True love, true love, true love tends to forget,
True love, true love, true love tends to forget.

I was lyin' down in the reeds without any oxygen
I saw you in the wilderness among the men.
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
All you got to do is wait and I'll tell you when.

You belong to me, baby, without a doubt,
Don't forsake me, baby, don't sell me out.
Don't keep me knockin' about from Mexico to Tibet,
True love, true love, true love tends to forget.

I'm so TIRED, I haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink
I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink
No, no, no
I'm so tired, I don't know what to do
I'm so tired, my mind is set on you
I wonder should I call you but I know what you would do
You'd say I'm putting you on
But it's no joke, it's doing me harm
You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain
You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane
You know I'd give you everything I've got
For a little peace of mind
I'm so tired, I'm feeling so upset
Although I'm so tired, I'll have another cigarette
And curse Sir Walter Raleigh
He was such a stupid get
You'd say I'm putting you on
But it's no joke, it's doing me harm
You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain
You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane
You know I'd give you everything I've got
For a little peace of mind
I'd give you everything I've got
For a little peace of mind
I'd give you everything I've got

Hard Knocks - Elvis


Hard Knocks - Elvis


Some kids born with a silver spoon
I guess that I was born a little too soon
Hard knocks, all I ever knew was hard knocks
And I'm telling you, I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share
Some kids born as rich as a king
But I was born without a doggone thing
Hard knocks, all I ever knew was hard knocks
And I'm telling you, I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share
I walked a million miles I bet
TIRED and hungry and cold and wet
I've heard that lonesome whistle blow
From New York City down to Mexico
Some kids born fancy free
Nobody never gave nothing to me but
Hard knocks, all I ever knew was hard knocks
And I'm telling you, I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share
I walked a million miles I bet
TIRED and hungry and cold and wet
I've heard that lonesome whistle blow
From New York City down to Mexico
Some kids born fancy free
Nobody never gave nothing to me but
Hard knocks, all I ever knew was hard knocks
And I'm telling you, I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share
I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share
I said you'd better beware

another mile, just one more mile;

Lord, Help me smile
another smile, just one more smile;
I know I just can't make it on my own.
I never thought I needed help before;
I thought that I could do things by myself.
Now I know I just can't take it any more.
With a humble heart, on bended knee,
I'm beggin' You, please, Help Me.
Come down from Your golden
throne to me, to lowly me;
I need to feel the touch of Your tender hand.
Remove the chains of darkness
and let me see, Lord let me see;
Just where I fit into your master plan.
I never thought I needed help before;
I thought that I could do things by myself.
Now I know I just can't take it any more.
With a humble heart, on bended knee,
I'm beggin' You, please, Help Me.

Jimmy used to run through the streets at night
To escape from all the fighting
He was always told that he wasn't right
So he just kept on writing
Writing to a dad that he wished he'd had
That he didn't know he needed, he said
"We should run away, but today we'll stay"
And I haven't seen him since that day, now I got

Jimmy on my mind, felt like yesterday
But I don't see him anymore, anymore
Jimmy, he got TIRED, so he couldn't stay
Now I don't see him anymore, anymore..

Tired Of Being Sorry- Enrique Iglesias

only registered users can see external links

I don't know why
You want to follow me tonight
When in the rest of the world
With whom I've crossed and I've quarreled
Let's me down so
For a thousand reasons that I know
To share forever the unrest
With all the demons I possess
Beneath the silver moon
Maybe you were right
But baby I was lonely
I don't want to fight
I'm tired of being sorry
Eighth and Ocean Drive
With all the vampires and their brides
We're all bloodless and blind
And longing for a life
Beyond the silver moon
Maybe you were right
But baby I was lonely
I don't want to fight
I'm tired of being sorry
I'm standing in the street
Crying out for you
No one sees me
But the silver moon
So far away
So outer space
I've trashed myself
I've lost my way
I've got to get to you, got to get to you
Maybe you were right
But baby I was lonely
I don't want to fight
I'm tired of being sorry
I'm standing in the street
Crying out for you
No one sees me
But the silver moon
Maybe you were right
But baby I was lonely
I don't want to fight
I'm tired of being sorry
I'm standing in the street
Crying out for you
No one sees me
But the silver moon

I been thinking ALL day. I'm wore out and TIRED of trying to come up with something. 😒 I got nada. GJ to those that did come up with one, or two, or three. 😁

Bennie And The Jets by Elton John 🤓

Hey kids, shake it loose together
The spotlight's hitting something
That's been known to change the weather
We'll kill the fatted calf tonight
So stick around
You're gonna hear electric music
Solid walls of sound
Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet
Uh but they're so spaced out, B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets
Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
Oh Bennie she's really keen
She's got electric boots a mohair suit
You know I READ it in a magazine
B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets
Hey kids, plug into the faithless
Maybe they're blinded
But Bennie makes them ageless
We shall survive, let us take ourselves along
Where we fight our parents out in the streets
To find who's right and who's wrong
Oh Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet
Oh but they're so spaced out, Bennie and the Jets
Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
Oh Bennie she's really keen
She's got electric boots a mohair suit
You know I READ it in a magazine, oh
B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets
Oh Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet
Oh but they're so spaced out, Bennie and the Jets
Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
Oh Bennie she's really keen
She's got electric boots a mohair suit
You know I READ it in a magazine, oh
B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Jets, Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie

Read ‘em and weep - Meatloaf


only registered users can see external links


I've been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to say
I thought I'd leave you with a letter or firey speech
Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play
And I've been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
I'd like to know how you faded and you threw it away
I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant
Well I could tell you good-bye or maybe see you around
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
We started out with a bang and at the top of the world
Now the guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks
And everything's blank
If I could find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight
c'mon and look at me and READ 'em and weep
I've been whispering softly, trying to build a cry up to a scream
We let the past slip away, and put the future on hold
Now the present is nothing but a hollowed out dream
And I've been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
I'd like to know why you faded and you threw it away
I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant
Well I could tell you good-bye or maybe see you around
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
But now the rooms are all empty, the candles are dark
The guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks, and everything's blank
It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
It's there in my eyes and it's all I can say, c'mon and read 'em and weep
Read 'em and weep, for all the hours we'll be spending alone
Read 'em and weep, for the dreams we'll ignore
Running silent and deep,
And all those promises we promised to keep, they won't be kept anymore
Read 'em and weep, for the magic that our bodies had made
Read 'em and weep, for the blood that we lost
Running silent and deep, and all the secrets that we somehow betrayed
For whatever the cost
Read 'em and weep, for the memories still alive in the bed
Read 'em and weep, for the lies we believed
Running silent and deep, and all the things that can never be said
Why don't you look at me and read 'em and weep
c'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
It's here in my eyes and it's all I can say
c'mon look at me and read 'em and weepI

My book - Beautiful South

This is my life and this is how it READS
For every chapter, a thousand memories
A murder, a mystery where everybody bleeds
A fantasy, a thriller with romance and disease
Diary entry 9th of May '62
We've had some ugly babies but none were quite like you
Diary entry '62 end of May
It looks as if the nose and chin are definitely here to stay
They're here to stay, they're here to stay
If my lips start smiling and my knees start a-knocking
I'm a failure
You are, you are
And if I seem half-hearted, it's because I'm broken hearted
And I'm a failure
You are, you are, you are (I am)
You are, you are, you are (I am)
This is my life and this is how it reads
A documentary that nobody believes
Albert Steptoe in 'Gone with the Breeze'
Mother played by Peter Beardsley, father by John Cleese
Diary entry '68 end of the year
A cardboard Apollo Six has given the all clear
11th December '68 Captain's log
Proposed trip to Mars is cancelled due to fog
It's due to fog, it's due to fog
If my lips start smiling and my knees start a-knocking
I'm a failure
You are, you are
And if I seem half-hearted, it's because I'm broken hearted
And I'm a failure
You are, you are, you are (I am)
You are, you are, you are (I am)
This is the play, it was I who wrote the script
Terry meets June in 'Tales from the Crypt'
It was going to be a film but the camera person slipped
They later found him scolding a banana
Diary entry tenth of April '89
The world is going mad but me I'm doing fine
I'm doing fine
Back to bed, back to reality
Just fine.

If you could read my mind - Olivia Newton John


only registered users can see external links


If you could READ my mind love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie
About a ghost from a wishing well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me
And I will never be set free
As long as I'm a ghost you can see
If I could read your mind love
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind the drugstore sells
When you reach the part where the heartaches come
Come the hero would be me
Heroes often fail
And you won't read that book again
Because the ending's just to hard to take
I walk away like a movie star
Who gets burned in a three way script
Enter number two, a movie queen
To play the scene of bringing all the good things out in me
But for now love let's be real
I never knew I feel this way
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back
If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie about a ghost from a wishing well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
The story always ends
And if you read between the lines
You'll know that I'm just trying to understand
The feeling that you left
I never knew I feel this way
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feeling's gone
And I just can't get it back

Peter Gabriel - The Book of Love

only registered users can see external links

The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures
And instructions for dancing
But I
I love it when you read to me
And you
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I
I love it when you sing to me
And you
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things…

Joey Lawrence - Read My Eyes

You don't know...
I guess you'll never know
What I feel for you but never show
You don't know
So how could you care
About the love I just can't seem to share?
Read my eyes
And tell me what do you see?
Read my eyes
Can you tell what's inside of me?
Look in deep
And tell me what's underneath
You might be surprised
If you'd only read my eyes
You're the key to the secrets that I hide
These feelings of mine can no longer be denied
You touch my soul with every breath that you take
My thoughts are with you every moment that I'm awake
So read my eyes
And tell me what do you see?
Read my eyes
Can you tell what's inside of me?
Look in deep and tell me what's underneath
You might be surprised
If you'd only read my eyes
You've been cold
But I've been blind

Elvis Are You Lonesome Tonight
(would be an unforgivable omission)

only registered users can see external links

Are you lonesome tonight,
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day

When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?
Related

I wonder if you're lonesome tonight
You know someone said that the world's a stage
And each must play a part.
Fate had me playing in love you as my sweet heart.

Act one was when we met, I loved you at first glance
You READ your line so cleverly and never missed a cue
Then came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strange
And why I'll never know.
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me
And I had no cause to doubt you.
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Than go on living without you.
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
With emptiness all around
And if you won't come back to me
Then make them bring the curtain down.

Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?

Michigan's own, Bob Seger, C'EST LA VIE

It was a teenage wedding and the old folks wished 'em well
You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle
And now the young monsieur and madam have rung the chapel bell
C'est la vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
They finished off an apartment with a two-room Roebuck sale
The coolerator was jammed with TV dinners and ginger ale
And when Pierre found work, the little money comin' worked out well
C'est la vie say the old folks it goes to show you never can tell
They had a hi-fi phono, boy did they let it blast
Seven hundred little records, all blues, rock, rhythm, and jazz
But when the sun went down, the volume went down as well
C'est la vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
They bought a souped-up jitney, it was a cherry red '53
And drove it down to New Orleans to celebrate their ANNIVERSARY
It was there where Pierre was wedded to the lovely mademoiselle
C'est la vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
They had a teenage wedding and the old folks wished 'em well
You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle
And now the young monsieur and madam have rung the chapel bell
C'est la vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell

Loudon Wainwright III Unhappy Anniversary

Unhappy anniversary
It's one year since we split
I walk and talk and get around
Lie down, stand up, and sit
I eat and drink and smoke and sing and
Live a little bit

Unhappy anniversary
It's one year since we split
Unhappy anniversary
It's ten years since we met
There is no need to remind me
No way I could forget
We fell in love, and then fell out
Both times there was no net
Unhappy anniversary
It's ten years since we met

Unhappy anniversary
I cannot count the days
And nights that I have thought of you
Since we went separate ways
I tell my mind to forget you
But my heart disobeys
Unhappy anniversary
I cannot count the days

Unhappy anniversary
It's one year since we split
I walk and talk and get around
Lie down, stand up, and sit
I eat and drink and smoke and sing and
Live a little bit

The Anniversary Waltz - Connie Francis


only registered users can see external links


We just discovered each other
Tonight when the lights were low
One dance led up to another
And now I can't let you go
So tell me I may always dance
The ANNIVERSARY Waltz with you
Tell me this is real romance
An anniversary dream come true
Let this be the answer
To our future years
Through millions of smiles
And a few little tears
May I always listen to
The Anniversary Waltz
With you
Let this be the answer
To our future years
Through millions of smiles
And a few little tears
May I always listen to
The Anniversary Waltz
With you

Well spotted, I am afraid I missed this fact. Thank you for pointing it out and
🍾‘Thank you Bella! For setting us out on this road.’ 🎉 It is always fun but becoming increasingly challenging.

Happy Anniversary!!

Anniversary Song ... Andy Williams

only registered users can see external links

Oh, how we danced on the night we were wed
We vowed our true love though a word wasn't said
The world was in bloom, there were stars in the skies
Except for the few that were there in your eyes
Dear, as I held you close in my arms
Angels were singing a hymn to your charms
Two hearts gently beating, murmuring low
"Darling, I love you so"
The night seemed to fade into blossoming dawn
The sun shone anew but the dance lingered on
Could we but recall that sweet moment sublime
We'd find that our love is unaltered by time
Dear, as I held you close in my arms
Angels were singing a hymn to your charms
Two hearts gently beating, murmuring low
"Darling, I love you so"

We Don't TALK Anymore by Cliff Richard

Used to think that life was sweet.
Used to think we were so complete.
I can't believe you'd throw it away.
Used to feel we had it made.
Used to feel we could sail away.
Can you imagine how I feel today.
Well it seems a long time ago you were the lonely one.
Now it comes to letting go you are the only one.
Do you know what you've done.
It's so funny how we don't TALK anymore.
It's so funny why we don't TALK anymore.
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep.
it's so funny how we don't TALK anymore.
Well it really doesn't matter to me.
I guess you're leaving was meant to be.
It's down to you now you want to be free.
Well I hope you know which way to go you're on your own again.
And don't come crying to me when you're the lonely one.
Remember what you've done.
It's so funny how we don't TALK anymore.
It's so funny why we don't TALK anymore
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep.
It's so funny how we don't TALK anymore.
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep.
It's so funny how we don't TALK.
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep.
It's so funny how we don't TALK.

TALKING In His Sleep by Toni Braxton

So you know everything about your lover
Want to bet
My oh my
How can this be there he goes
TALKING in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's TALKING in his sleep
The affair okay
He's corrupt
What do I do what do I say
I feel ashamed embarrassed fatigued
Such a petty crime of sexual indiscretion
At night when he lays down
How I wish I could not hear the sound
But I could
Oh the things that he said
My oh my
How can this be
There he goes TALKING in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's TALKING in his sleep
Adultery that's what the call it
When you're married
Tell me something
Why is it that the men are forgiven and the women
Aren't
I don't know maybe, maybe I should forgive him
Maybe I'm over-reacting what do you think...not!
The promises he made
Said we'll be together for always
He's such a liar
Then he calls out her name
My oh my
How can this be
There he goes TALKING in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's TALKING in his sleep
Guilty secrets
They are haunting my life
And he doesn't even know that I know
Can you hear him
The promises he makes
Said we'll be together for always
He's such a liar
Then he goes out to burn me
My oh my
How can this be
There he goes TALKING in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's TALKING in his sleep

Bonnie Raitt, SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT

People are TALKIN', TALKIN' 'bout people
I hear them whisper, you won't believe it
They think we're lovers kept under covers
I just ignore it, but they keep saying
We laugh just a little too loud
We stand just a little too close
We stare just a little too long
Maybe they're seeing something we don't, darlin'
Let's give them something to TALK about
Let's give them something to TALK about
Let's give them something to TALK about
How about love?
I feel so foolish, I never noticed
You'd act so nervous
Could you be falling for me?
It took a rumor to make me wonder
Now I'm convinced I'm going under
Thinking 'bout you every day
Dreaming 'bout you every night
Hoping that you feel the same way
Now that we know it, let's really show it, darlin'
Let's give them something to TALK about
A little mystery to figure out
Let's give them something to TALK about
How about love, love, love, love?
Let's give them something to TALK about, baby
A little mystery to figure out
Let's give them something to TALK about
How about love, love, love, love?
How about love, love, love, love?
How about love, love, love, love?

Money talks, it'll tell you a story
Money talks, says strange things
Money talks very loudly
You'd be surprised the friends you can buy with small change

They say it's the root of all evil
They say gold is the king
Money talks, you'd better believe it
All that gold don't mean a thing

Rich people, hear those pockets jingle
Spare change, hear the down-and-outers cry
Money talks, tip-toe up behind you
Steal what they can, off the cuff or on the sly

QTY - Rodeo
only registered users can see external links

Every rodeo comes to an end
It's the inevitable, there are bandages
On every road, a gas station
It's the distance between them, that's miles per gallon

Well, how far from where I've been?
And how long until it's comfortable?

A rough patch isn't even that
I'm with my person, my very own person
My dark thoughts turn to bar TALK
I'm with my person, my very own person

Pocket change on the tarmac
An imprint of me walking the length of my footsteps
I grew up, I was liked less
I had a drink, I had another, I got over it

First there was bewilderment
Followed by second guess
A trinity of tourist traps
Looking for a monument
That's five dollars at the door
Saw hexagrams, heard curse words
That's seven hours sleeping towards
An eight-hour day at work

A rough patch isn't even that
I'm with my person, my very own person
My dark thoughts turn to bar TALK
I'm with my person, my very own person

We've come this far and we can't turn BACK
This trains run out of track.
Seems like, they're ain't no use to try.
Now I'm not one to abandon hope,
But this might be all she wrote,
Our destination fades like smoke into the sky.

And we've come this far and still the same,
Standin' out here in the rain.
Just one more mile, if only you could fly.
Ah and here we are, East of Eden.
So close you can taste the freedom.
Freedom like, like you've never known.
Ah, and East of Eden and the Promised Land
Just a castle made of sand,
Don't it make you wish you could go home.
Ah, don't it make you wish you could go home.

Now and all this time we kept our dream.
Nothin' ever came between.
Finally, we're standin' at the gate.
Ah, the gate is closed, and there's a wall.
I never thought it would be so tall.
Just a piece of paper that seals your fate.

Any child can feel the pain,
But the high and might have no shame.
Where you are, is where you must remain.

Ah and here we are, East of Eden.
So close you can taste the freedom.
Freedom like, like you've never known.
Ah, and East of Eden and the Promised Land
Just a castle made of sand,
Don't it make you wish you could go home.
Ah, don't it make you wish you could go home.

And we've come this far and still the same,
Standin' out here in the rain.
Just one more mile, if only you could fly.
Ah and here we are, East of Eden.
So close you can taste the freedom.
Freedom like, like you've never known.
Ah, and East of Eden and the Promised Land
Just a castle made of sand,
Don't it make you wish you could go home.
Ah, don't it make you wish you could go home.

Bob Dylan, Lily,Rosemary & the Jack of Hearts

The festival was over, the boys were all plannin' for a fall,
The cabaret was quiet except for the drillin' in the wall.
The curfew had been lifted and the gamblin' wheel shut down,
Anyone who had any sense had already left town.
He was standin' in the doorway lookin' like the Jack of Hearts.

He moved across the mirrored room, "Set it up for everyone," he said,
Then everyone commenced to do what they were doin' before they turned their heads.
Then he walked up to a stranger and he asked him with a grin,
"Could you kindly tell me, friend, what time the show begins?"
Then he moved into the corner, face down like the Jack of Hearts.

Backstage the girls were playin' five-card stud by the stairs,
Lily had two queens, she was hopin' for a third to match her pair.
Outside the streets were fillin' up, the window was open wide,
A gentle breeze was blowin', you could feel it from inside.
Lily called another bet and drew up the Jack of Hearts.

Big Jim was no one's fool, he owned the town's only diamond mine,
He made his usual entrance lookin' so dandy and so fine.
With his bodyguards and silver cane and every hair in place,
He took whatever he wanted to and he laid it all to waste.
But his bodyguards and silver cane were no match for the Jack of Hearts.

Rosemary combed her hair and took a carriage into town,
She slipped in through the side door lookin' like a queen without a crown.
She fluttered her false eyelashes and whispered in his ear,
"Sorry, darlin', that I'm late," but he didn't seem to hear.
He was starin' into space over at the Jack of Hearts.

"I know I've seen that face somewhere," Big Jim was thinkin' to himself,
"Maybe down in Mexico or a picture up on somebody's shelf."
But then the crowd began to stamp their feet and the house lights did dim
And in the darkness of the room there was only Jim and him,
Starin' at the butterfly who just drew the Jack of Hearts.

Lily was a princess, she was fair-skinned and precious as a child,
She did whatever she had to do, she had that certain flash every time she smiled.
She had come away from a broken home, had lots of strange affairs
With men in every walk of life which took her everywhere.
But she'd never met anyone quite like the Jack of Hearts.

The hangin' judge came in unnoticed and was being wined and dined,
The drillin' in the wall kept up but no one seemed to pay it any mind.
It was known all around that Lily had Jim's ring
And nothing would ever come between Lily and the king.
No, nothin' ever would except maybe the Jack of Hearts.

Rosemary started drinkin' hard and seein' her reflection in the knife,
She was tired of the attention, tired of playin' the role of Big Jim's wife.
She had done a lot of bad things, even once tried suicide,
Was lookin' to do just one good deed before she died.
She was gazin' to the future, riding on the Jack of Hearts.

Lily took her dress off and buried it away.
"Has your luck run out?" she laughed at him, "Well, I guess you must
have known it would someday.
Be careful not to touch the wall, there's a brand-new coat of paint,
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint."
Down the hallway footsteps were comin' for the Jack of Hearts.

The backstage manager was pacing all around by his chair.
"There's something funny going on," he said, "I can just feel it in the air."
He went to get the hangin' judge, but the hangin' judge was drunk,
As the leading actor hurried by in the costume of a monk.
There was no actor anywhere better than the Jack of Hearts.

No one knew the circumstance but they say that it happened pretty quick,
The door to the dressing room burst open and a Colt revolver clicked.
And Big Jim was standin' there, ya couldn't say surprised,
Rosemary right beside him, steady in her eyes.
She was with Big Jim but she was leanin' to the Jack of Hearts.

Two doors down the boys finally made it through the wall
And cleaned out the bank safe, it's said they got off with quite a haul.
In the darkness by the riverbed they waited on the ground
For one more member who had business back in town.
But they couldn't go no further without the Jack of Hearts.

The next day was hangin' day, the sky was overcast and black,
Big Jim lay covered up, killed by a penknife in the BACK.
And Rosemary on the gallows, she didn't even blink,
The hangin' judge was sober, he hadn't had a drink.
The only person on the scene missin' was the Jack of Hearts.

The cabaret was empty now, a sign said, "Closed for repair,"
Lily had already taken all of the dye out of her hair.
She was thinkin' 'bout her father, who she very rarely saw,
Thinkin' 'bout Rosemary and thinkin' about the law.
But, most of all she was thinkin' 'bout the Jack of Hearts.

L.A. proved too much for the man

BACK In The Saddle by Aerosmith

I'm BACK
I'm BACK in the saddle again
I'm BACK
I'm BACK in the saddle again
Ridin' into town alone by the light of the moon
I'm lookin' for old Sukie Jones, she crazy horse saloon
Barkeep gimme a drink, that's when she caught my eye
She turned to give me a wink, that'd make a grown man cry
I'm BACK in the saddle again
I'm BACK
I'm BACK in the saddle again
I'm BACK
Come easy, go easy, all right until the rising sun
I'm calling all the shots tonight, I'm like a loaded gun
Peelin' off my boots and chaps, I'm saddle sore
Four bits gets you time in the racks, I scream for more
Fools' gold out of their mines, the girls are soaking wet
No tongue's drier than mine, I'll come when I get BACK
I'm BACK in the saddle again
I'm BACK
I'm BACK in the saddle again
I'm ridin', I'm loadin' up my pistol
I'm ridin', I really got a fistful
I'm ridin', I'm shinin' up my saddle
I'm ridin', this snake is gonna rattle
Yodalayhe yodalayhe yodayahehoo
I'm BACK in the saddle again
I'm BACK
I'm BACK in the saddle again
I'm BACK
Ridin' high
Ridin' high
Ridin' high

Shirley Wood gulped down her breakfast
Shut the fridge and joined the throng
Margaret Beatty snatched the milk in
Scanned the news and went along

Annie Harris drew the curtains
Screwed her eyes up, had a peep
Saw the marchers, heard their voices
Making early morning noises
Stumbled BACK to bed and tried to sleep

Come with us, run with us
We're gonna change the world
You'll be amazed, so full of praise
When we've rearranged your world
We're gonna change your world...

He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy

You went back to what you knew
So far removed
From all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked

I'll go back to black
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
I go back to... us
I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe

And I'm a tiny penny
Rolling up the walls inside
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times

You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times

You go back to her
And I go back to
Black, black, black, black

Black, black, black
I go back to
I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black

..After one two to five glasses of fine fucking rum
I met myself, that's how I know all of your secrets
Cuz I left myself, and I will never fear again, I
Wish we could run, fast like a shot
Wish we had a bigger plan but I’m afraid we have not

I paint the whole wide world for you mami
Paint the whole wide world for me papi
If we paint together we can make a change
Things will never ever be the same..

Paint it black - The Rolling Stones

I see a red door and I want it PAINTED black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens ev'ry day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door I must have it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facin' up, when your whole world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the settin' sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I want to see it painted, painted, painted, painted black

All right girls, I'll show you what to do
This boat will sparkle like a diamond when we get through
By the numbers there ain't much time
We're gonna start an assembly line
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
You get the sandpaper, you get the pails
You get the hammer baby, you get the nails
You get the PAINT , you get the brush
'Cause we're gonna give it the special touch
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
We got a magic potion that will help us win
I don't know how to spell it but dip right in
Blako-oxy-tonic phosphate, it's the latest scoop
But that's all right girls you can call it "Goop"
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Work the sandpaper, hammer that nail
Tote that paintbrush and lift that pail
Get a rhythm going, nice and easy
Come on and use a little elbow greasy
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
O.K. girls, we're all through
I'm gonna tell you what we're gonna do
We'll fall right down and have some fun
And I'm gonna kiss you all one by one


A truly awful song, but we are after words not quality.

Bob Dylan Brownsville Girl

Well, there was this movie I seen one time
About a man riding ’cross the desert and it starred Gregory Peck
He was shot down by a hungry kid trying to make a name for himself
The townspeople wanted to crush that kid down and string him up by the neck

Well, the marshal, now he beat that kid to a bloody pulp
As the dying gunfighter lay in the sun and gasped for his last breath
“Turn him loose, let him go, let him say he outdrew me fair and square
I want him to feel what it’s like to every moment face his death”

Well, I keep seeing this stuff and it just comes a-rolling in
And you know it blows right through me like a ball and chain
You know I can’t believe we’ve lived so long and are still so far apart
The memory of you keeps calling after me like a rolling train

I can still see the day that you came to me on the PAINTed desert
In your busted down Ford and your platform heels
I could never figure out why you chose that particular place to meet
Ah, but you were right. It was perfect as I got in behind the wheel

Well, we drove that car all night into San Anton’
And we slept near the Alamo, your skin was so tender and soft
Way down in Mexico you went out to find a doctor and you never came back
I would have gone on after you but I didn’t feel like letting my head get blown off

Well, we’re driving’ this car and the sun is coming’ up over the Rockies
Now I know she ain’t you but she’s here and she’s got that dark rhythm in her soul
But I’m too over the edge and I ain’t in the mood anymore to remember the times
When I was your only man
And she don’t want to remind me. She knows this car would go out of control

Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curls
Teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
Brownsville girl, show me all around the world
Brownsville girl, you’re my honey love

Well, we crossed the panhandle and then we headed towards Amarillo
We pulled up where Henry Porter used to live. He owned a Wreckin’ lot outside of town about a mile
Ruby was in the backyard hanging clothes, she had her red hair tied back. She saw us come rolling up in a trail of dust
She said, “Henry ain’t here but you can come on in, he’ll be back in a little while”

Then she told us how times were tough and about how she was thinking’ of
Bumming a ride back from where she started
But ya know, she changed the subject every time money came up
She said, “Welcome to the land of the living dead”
You could tell she was so broken hearted
She said, “Even the swap meets around here are getting pretty corrupt”

“How far are y’all going?” Ruby asked us with a sigh
“We’re going all the way ’till the wheels fall off and burn
’Til the sun peels the PAINT and the seat covers fade and the water moccasin dies”
Ruby just smiled and said, “Ah, you know some babies never learn”

Something about that movie though, well I just can’t get it out of my head
But I can’t remember why I was in it or what part I was supposed to play
All I remember about it was Gregory Peck and the way people moved
And a lot of them seemed to be looking’ my way

Well, they were looking for somebody with a pompadour
I was crossing’ the street when shots rang out
I didn’t know whether to duck or to run, so I ran
“We got him cornered in the churchyard,” I heard somebody shout

Well, you saw my picture in the Corpus Christi Tribune. Underneath it
It said, “A man with no alibi”
You went out on a limb to testify for me, you said I was with you
Then when I saw you break down in front of the judge and cry real tears
It was the best acting I saw anybody do

Now I’ve always been the kind of person that doesn’t like to trespass
But sometimes you just find yourself over the line
Oh if there’s an original thought out there, I could use it right now
You know, I feel pretty good, but that is not saying’ much. I could feel a whole lot better
If you were just here by my side to show me how

Well, I’m standing’ in line in the rain to see a movie starring Gregory Peck
Yeah, but you know it’s not the one that I had in mind
He’s got a new one out now, I don’t even know what it’s about
But I’ll see him in anything so I’ll stand in line

You know, it’s funny how things never turn out the way you had ’em planned
The only thing we knew for sure about Henry Porter is that his name wasn’t Henry Porter
And you know there was something’ about you baby that I liked that was always too good for this world
Just like you always said there was something’ about me you liked
That I left behind in the French Quarter

Strange how people who suffer together have stronger connections than people who are most content
I don’t have any regrets, they can talk about me plenty when I’m gone
You always said people don’t do what they believe in, they just do what’s most convenient, then they repent
And I always said, “Hang on to me, baby, and let’s hope that the roof stays on”

There was a movie I seen one time, I think I sat through it twice
I don’t remember who I was or where I was bound
All I remember about it was it starred Gregory Peck, he wore a gun
And he was shot in the back
Seems like a long time ago, long before the stars were torn down

From my youngest years
Till this moment here
I've never seen
Such a lovely queen
From the skies above
To the deepest love
I've never felt
Crazy like this before
Paint my love
You should paint my love
It's the picture of a thousand sunsets
It's the freedom of a thousand doves
Baby, you should paint my love
Been around the world
Then I met you, girl
It's like coming home
To a place I've known
Paint my love
You should paint my love
It's the picture of a thousand sunsets
It's the freedom of a thousand doves
Baby, you should paint my love
Since you came into my life
The days before all fade to black and white
Since you came into my life
Everything has changed
Paint my love
You should paint my love
It's the picture of a thousand sunsets
It's the freedom of a thousand doves
Baby, you should paint my love
Paint my love
You should paint my love
It's the picture of a thousand sunsets
It's the freedom of a thousand doves
Baby, you should paint my love

Bread, IF

If a picture PAINTS a thousand words,
Then why can't I PAINT you?
The words will never show the you I've come to know.
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you,
You're all that's left me too.
And when my love for life is running dry,
You come and pour yourself on me.
If a man could be two places at one time,
I'd be with you.
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
I'd spend the end with you.
And when the world was through,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Then you and I would simply fly away

Stay away - Elvis


only registered users can see external links


Ten thousand miles even though I roam
I can hear the call of the HILLS of home
The canyons high and the valleys low
Echo how can you stay away

My dreams are there where the eagle flies
Where the mountain tops seem to touch the sky
The winding streams and the winds that blow
Ask me how can you stay away

Far too long have I stayed apart
From this land that I love and divide my heart
Now, now I know I must go
Where the hills say don't stay away
Where the hills say don't stay away

Tonight I'm alone without you my dear
It seems there's a longing for you still
Oh, but I just keep it there so I won't be alone
In our little cabin home on the HILL
Oh, someone has taken you from me
And left me here all alone
Well, to listen to the rain to beat on my window pane
In our little cabin home on the hill, well, oh
Oh, someone has taken you from me
And left me here all alone
But to listen to the rain to beat on my window pane
In our little cabin home on the hill
Oh, someone has taken you from me
And left me here all alone
To listen to the rain beat on my window pane
In our little cabin home on the hill
In our little cabin home on the hill

The Dubliners Joe Hill

I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night
Alive as you and me
Says I, 'But Joe, you're ten years dead'
'I never died', says he
'I never died', says he.

In Salt Lake, Joe, says I
Him standing by my side
'They framed you on a murder charge'
Says Joe, 'I never died'
Says Joe, 'I never died.'

The copper bosses they shot you, Joe,
They filled you full of lead
'Takes more than guns to kill a man'
Says Joe, 'And I ain't dead'
Says Joe, 'And I ain't dead.'

And standing there as big as life
And smiling with his eyes
Says Joe, 'What they forgot to kill'

'Went on to organize'
'Went on to organize.'

Joe Hill ain't dead, he says to me
Joe Hill ain't never died
Where working man are out on strike
Joe Hill is at their side
Joe Hill is at their side.

In San Diego up to Maine
In every mine and mill
Where working men defend their rights
It's there you'll find Joe Hill
It's there you'll find Joe Hill.

I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night
Alive as you and me
Says I, But Joe, you're ten years dead
I never died, says he
I never died, says he.

It doesn't hurt me
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
You, it's you and me

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that HILL
Be running up that building
See if I only could, oh..

I found my thrill
On Blueberry HILL
On Blueberry Hill
When I found you
The moon stood still
On Blueberry Hill
And lingered until
My dream came true
The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made
Were never to be
Though we're apart
You're part of me still
For you were my thrill
On Blueberry Hill
The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made
Were never to be
Though we're apart
You're part of me still
For you were my thrill
On Blueberry Hill

(Ring my BELL, ding-dong-ding)
You can ring my BELL, ring my BELL

One less bell to answer - 5th Dimension

One less BELL to answer
One less egg to fry
One less man to pick up after
I should be happy
But all I do is cry
(Cry, cry, no more laughter) I should be happy
(Oh, why did he go)
Since he left my life's so empty
Though I try to forget it just can't be done
Each time the doorbell rings I still run
I don't know how in the world
To stop thinking of him
'Cause I still love him so
I spend each day the way I start out
Crying my heart out
One less man to pick up after
No more laughter, no more love
Since he went away (he went away)
(One less BELL to answer) Why did he leave me
(Why, why, why did he leave)
(One less BELL to answer)
Now I've got one less egg to fry
One less egg to fry
(Why, why, why did he leave) And all I do is cry
(One less BELL to answer) Because a man told me goodbye
(Why, why, why did he leave)
(One less BELL to answer) Somebody tell me please
Where did he go, why did he go
(Why, why, why did he leave) How could he leave me

Fess Parker Davy Crocket

Born on a mountain top in Tennessee,
Greenest state in the land of the free.
Raised in the woods so's he knew every tree,
Killed him a bear when he was only three.
Davy, Davy Crockett King of the Wild Frontier.

He fought single handed through the Injun war,
Till the Creeks was whipped and peace was restored.
And while he was handling this risky chore,
Made himself a legend, forevermore.
Davy, Davy Crockett the man who don't know fear.

When he lost his love, and his grief was gall,
In his heart he wanted to leave it all,
And lose himself in the forest tall,
But he answered instead, his country's call.
Davy, Davy Crockett, the choice of the whole frontier

He went off to Congress and served a spell
Fixin' up the government and laws as well.
Took over Washington, so we hear tell,
And patched up the crack in the Liberty BELL.
Davy, Davy Crockett, seein' his duty clear. (Serving his country well)

When he come home, his politickin' done,
The western march had just begun.
So he packed his gear, and his trusty gun
And lit out a grinnin' to follow the sun.
Davy, Davy Crockett, Leadin the Pioneers.

His land is biggest, and his land is best
From grassy plains to the mountain crest
He's ahead of us all in meeting the test
Followin' his legend right into the West
Davy, Davy Crockett, King of the Wide Frontier
King of the Wild Frontier.

Bob Dylan Ring Them Bells

Ring them bells, ye heathen
From the city that dreams,
Ring them bells from the sanctuaries
Cross the valleys and streams,
For they're deep and they're wide
And the world's on its side
And time is running backwards
And so is the bride.

Ring them bells St. Peter
Where the four winds blow,
Ring them bells with an iron hand
So the people will know.
Oh it's rush hour now
On the wheel and the plow
And the sun is going down
Upon the sacred cow.

Bob Dylan Chimes of Freedom

Far between sundown's finish and midnight's broken toll
We ducked inside a doorway as thunder went crashing
As majestic BELLS of bolts struck shadows in the sounds
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing

Flashing for the warriors whose strength is not to fight
Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight
And for each and every underdog soldier in the night
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing

Through the city's melted furnace, unexpectedly we watched
With faces hidden as the walls were tightening
As the echo of the wedding BELLS before the blowin' rain
Dissolved into the bells of the lightning

Tolling for the rebel, tolling for the rake
Tolling for the luckless, the abandoned and forsaked
Tolling for the outcast, burning constantly at stake
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing

Platters The Great Pretender

Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Pretending that I'm doing well
My need is such I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no one can tell

Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Adrift in a world of my own
I play the game but to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone

Too real is this feeling of make believe
Too real when I feel what my heart
can't conceal

Ooh Ooh yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not (you see)
I'm WEARing my heart like a crown

Pretending that you're still around
Yeah ooh hoo

Too real is this feeling of make believe
Too real when I feel what my heart
can't conceal
Yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm WEARing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around
Still around

Won't you WEAR my ring around your neck?
To tell the world I'm yours, by heck
Let them see your love for me
And let them see by the ring around your neck
Won't you WEAR my ring around your neck?
To tell the world I'm yours, by heck
Let them know I love you so
And let them no by the ring around your neck
Well they say that goin' steady is not the proper thing
They say that we're too young to know the meaning of a ring
I only know that I love you and that you love me too
So, darling, please do what I ask of you
Won't you wear my ring around your neck
To tell the world I'm yours, by heck
Let them see your love for me
And let them see by the ring around your neck
Well they say that goin' steady is not the proper thing
They say that we're too young to know the meaning of a ring
I only know that I love you and that you love me too
So, darling, this is what I, I beg of you
Won't you wear my ring around your neck
To tell the world I'm yours, by heck
Let them know I love you so
And let them know by the ring around your neck
And let them know by the ring around your neck
And let them know by the ring around your neck

You wear it well - Rod Stewart

I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon
But to settle down and write you a line
I've been meaning to phone you but from Minnesota
Hell it's been a very long time
You WEAR it well
A little old fashioned but that's all right
Well I suppose you're thinking I bet he's sinking
Or he wouldn't get in touch with me
Oh I ain't begging or losing my head
I sure do want you to know that you wear it well
There ain't a lady in the land so fine
Remember them basement parties, your brother's karate
The all day rock and roll shows
Them homesick blues and radical views
Haven't left a mark on you, you wear it well
A little out of time but I don't mind
But I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
But I blew it without even tryin'
Now I'm eatin' my heart out
Tryin' to get a letter through
Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
I'm gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town
When you sat down and cried on the stairs
You knew it did not cost the earth, but for what it's worth
You made me feel a millionaire and you wear it well
Madame Onassis got nothing on you
Anyway, my coffee's cold and I'm getting told
That I gotta get back to work
So when the sun goes low and you're home all alone
Think of me and try not to laugh and I wear it well
I don't object if you call collect
'Cause I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
But I blew it without even tryin'
Now I'm eatin' my heart out tryin' to get back to you
After all the years I hope it's the same address
Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on

You WEAR It Well by DeBarge

You're turnin' heads
You've got that laissez faire

You've got exactly what it takes (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Not the ordinary
Anything you WEAR looks good on you, especially
Nothin' I can tell you
You haven't already heard a half a million times
But I'd still like to say
You WEAR it well (Ooh, sho' nuff)
You WEAR it well, you WEAR it well (Woo!)

She wears red feathers - Guy Mitchell


only registered users can see external links


(She WEARS red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt)
She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea
A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes
And love in her heart for me
I work in a London bank, respectable position
From nine to three they serve you tea
But ruin your disposition
Each night of music calls, rather lost I seem
And once a pearl of a native girl came smilin' right at me
She WEARS red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She WEARS red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea
A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes
And love in her heart for me
Goodbye to the London bank, I started in a-sailin'
The fourteenth day from Mandalay I spied her from the railin'
She knew I was on my way, waited, and was true
She said "You son of an Englishman, I've dreamed each night of you"
She WEARS red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She WEARS red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea
A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes
And love in her heart for me
I went to her Ma and Pa and said I loved her only
And they both said we could be wed, oh, what a ceremony
An elephant brought her in, placed her by my side
While six baboons got out bassoons and played "Here Comes the Bride"
I'm back here in London town and, though it may sound silly
She's here with me and you should see us walk down Picadilly
The boys at the London bank kinda hold their breath
She sits with me and sips her tea which tickles them to death
She WEARS red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She WEARS red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea
A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes
And love (and love) in her heart (in her heart) for me

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
CLOSE to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
On the day that you were born the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold and starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
On the day that you were born the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold and starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Wa, close to you
Wa, close to you
Ha, close to you
La, close to you

When your world's closing in
And there's no place to hide
And you're needing a friend
To be there, at your side
Send a message to me
I'll arrive and you'll see
Whether you're right or wrong
This is where you belong
Give it a try and you'll see
Move in a little CLOSER, baby
You've got to keep me CLOSER, baby
Come in a little CLOSER, baby
Together, we can make it happen
Wait and see
When your troubles arrive
Pouring down from the sky
And you're feeling the down
You don't know what to do
Give a holler to me
I'm the one that you need
Reach for my helping hand
Then you will understand
How simplified it can be
Move in a little closer, baby
You've got to keep me closer, baby
Come in a little closer, baby
Together, we can make it happen
Wait and see
Move in a little closer, baby
You've got to keep me closer, baby
Come in a little closer, baby
Together, we can make it happen
Wait and see
Move in a little closer, baby
You've got to keep me closer, baby
Come in a little closer, baby ...

Aerosmith, DON'T WANT TO MISS A THING

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Ooh, every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure
Don't want to CLOSE my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
Lying CLOSE to you feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes
And thank God we're together
And I just want to stay with you in this moment forever
Forever and ever
I don't want to CLOSE my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
And I don't want to miss one smile
I don't want to miss one kiss
Well, I just want to be with you, right here with you
Just like this
I just want to hold you CLOSE
I feel your heart so CLOSE to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all of the rest of time
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah!
Don't want to CLOSE my eyes
Don't want to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
I don't want to CLOSE my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
Don't want to CLOSE my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep, yeah
I don't want to miss a thing

Tom Rosenthal - Have We Met Before? (feat. Fenne Lily)
only registered users can see external links

are you thinking
is she CLOSE
do you struggle with umbrellas
are you leaving
are you home
have you timed this badly
have we met before

are you staying
did you fall
can you count to ten in German
can you whisper
can you lie
did you design your own website
have we met before
will you know it when you see it
have we met before..

J J Cale Closer To You

Wish I was a stocking clinging to your thigh
Everytime you'd move around I'd view you walking by
Wish I was your underwear hanging around your waist
Everytime you'd shake that thing I'd get a little taste
Closer, closer, closer to you
Closer, got to get closer, closer to you

If I was a pair of boots I wouldn't have to beg
I'd be satisfied just being around your leg
When I am dreaming it takes so many trips
I'd pretend that I'm a stick to decorate your lips
Closer, closer, closer to you
Closer, got to get closer, closer to you

If I am a necklace hanging down your front
When you feel the time was right I'd notice what you want
Wish I was a silk shirt draped around your back
Right next to your skin tryin' to make contact
Closer, closer, closer to you
Closer, closer, closer to you

If I had my wishes, If I had my way
I'd be all the same to you, each and everyday
Closer, closer, closer to you
Closer, closer, closer to you

The Commodores, THREE TIMES A LADY

Thanks for the times that you've given me
The memories are all in mind
And now that we've come
To the end of our rainbow
There's something I must say out loud!
Your once, twice
THREE times a lady
And I love you
Yes, your once, twice
THREE times a lady
And I love you!
When we are together
The moments I cherish
With every beat of my heart
To touch you, to hold you
To feel you, to need you
There's nothing to keep us apart
You're once, twice
THREE times a lady
And I love you!
I love you !

Lynyrd Skynyrd, GIMME THREE STEPS

I was cutting the rug
Down at place called The Jug
With a girl named Linda Lou
When in walked a man
With a gun in his hand
And he was looking for you know who
He said, "Hey there, fellow
With the hair colored yellow
Whatcha tryin' to prove?
'Cause that's my woman there
And I'm a man who cares
And this might be all for you
I said, excuse me
I was scared and fearing for my life
I was shaking like a leaf on a tree
'Cause he was lean, mean
Big and bad, Lord
Pointin' that gun on me
"Oh, wait a minute, mister
I didn't even kiss her
Don't want no trouble with you
And I know you don't owe me
But I wish you'd let me
Ask one favor from you"
"Oh, won't you
Gimme THREE steps, gimme THREE steps, mister
Gimme THREE steps toward the door?
Gimme THREE steps, gimme THREE steps, mister
And you'll never see me no more"
For, sure
Well the crowd cleared away
And I began to pray
And the water fell on the floor
And I'm telling you, son
Well, it ain't no fun
Staring straight down a forty-four
Well, he turned and screamed at Linda Lou
And that's the break I was looking for
Well, you could hear me screaming a mile away
I was headed out toward the door
"Oh, won't you
Gimme THREE steps, gimme THREE steps, mister
Gimme THREE steps toward the door?
Gimme THREE steps, gimme THREE steps, mister
And you'll never see me no more"
Show me the back door
