Like I’ve never been gone - Billy Fury

… Don't give your love to someone while I'm away,
I want you to think about me each night and day,
And when I come on home after being gone so long,
I want it to be LIKE I've never been gone.
… I'll feel your tender kisses before I go to sleep,
I'll feel your arms around me, just promise me,
You'll keep all your love and your kisses until I come home,
And then it'll be like I've never been gone,
… I don't ask much of you, do what you want to do,
But, don't make me be a fool for loving you-ooo-ooo.
I'll feel you tender kisses before I go to sleep,
I'll feel your arms around me, just promise me,
… You'll keep all your love and your kisses until I come home,
And then it'll be like I've never been gone.
Can't you hear me, like I've never been gone.

… I don't LIKE you but I love you
Seems that I'm always, thinking of you
Oh-oh-oh, you treat me badly
I love you madly
… You've really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
Baby
… I don't want you, but I need you
Don't want to kiss you, but I need to
Oh-oh-oh, you do me wrong now
My love is strong now
… You've really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
Baby
… I love you, and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me
Hold me, hold me
Tighter
Tighter
… I wanna leave you, don't wanna stay here
Don't wanna spend another day here
Oh-oh-oh, I want to split now
I just can quit now
… You've really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
Baby
… I love you, and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, please
Hold me, squeeze
Hold me, hold me
… You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
You've really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)

Bob Dylan - LIKE a rolling stone

only registered users can see external links

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
You thought they were all kiddin' you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin' out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal

How does it feel?
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
And nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street
And now you're gonna have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say do you want to make a deal?

How does it feel?
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
A complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
When they all did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal

How does it feel?
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
Exchanging all precious gifts
But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

Nina Simone - Just Like a Woman

She takes
Just like a woman
Yes, she does
And she makes love
Just like a woman
And she aches
Just like a woman
But she breaks
Like a little girl

Nobody feels any pain
Tonight, as I stand inside the rain
Everybody knows
That baby's got new clothes
Lately, I see her ribbons and her bows
And the problems from her curls

She takes
Just like a woman
Yes, she does
And she makes love
Just like a woman
And she aches
Just like a woman
And she breaks
Like a little girl

It was raining from the first
Everybody knows I was dying of thirst
So I came here
And a long time's curse
And what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here
Ain't it clear?
Ain't it clear?

I must admit
I believe it's time for us to quit
And when we meet again
Being introduced as friends
Please, don't let on
That you knew me when
I was hungry
And it was your world

I take
Just like a woman
Yes, I do
And I make love
Just like a woman
And I ache
Just like a woman
But I break
Just like a little girl

Ned’s Atomic Dustbin - Nothing Like

I don't know what you're thinking when you fail to see things are at an end
You hate to see me start again
You don't seem nothing like- my friend
You don't seem nothing like- my friend

You just watch me
'Cause you cannot stop me

I don't deny you're in good health
But I do deny that I've found wealth
You look a fool, but who can tell
You don't look nothing like- yourself
You don't look nothing like- yourself

You just watch me
'Cause you cannot stop me

T. Rex - Ride a White Swan

Ride it all out like a bird in the skyways
Ride it all out like you were a bird
Fly it all out like an eagle in a sunbeam
Ride it all out like you were a bird

Wear a tall hat like the druid in the old days
Wear a tall hat and a tattooed gown
Ride a white swan like the people of the Beltane
Wear your hair long, babe, you can't go wrong

Catch a bright star and place it on your forehead
Say a few spells and baby, there you go
Take a black cat and sit it on your shoulder
And in the morning you'll know all you know, know

Wear a tall hat like the druid in the old days
Wear a tall hat and a tattooed gown
Ride a white swan like the people of the Beltane
Wear your hair long, babe, you can't go wrong

Trying to get to you - Elvis

I've BEEN traveling over miles
Even through the valleys, too
I've been traveling night and day
I've been running all the way
Baby, trying to get to you.
Ever since I read your letter
Where you said you loved me true
I've been traveling night and day
I've been running all the way
baby, trying to get to you
When I read your loving letter
Then my heart began to sing
There were many miles between us,
But they didn't mean a thing.
I just had to reach you, baby,
In spite of all that I've been through.
I kept traveling night and day,
I kept running all the way,
Baby, trying to get to you.
Well if I had to do it over
that's exactly what Id do,
I would travel night and day,
And Id still run all the way,
Baby, trying to get to you.
Well, there's nothing that could hold me
Or that could keep me away from you
When your loving letter told me
That you really loved me true
Lord above me knows I love you
It was He who brought me through,
When my way was darkest night,
He would shine His brightest light,
When I was trying to get to you.

Since You've Been Gone - Rainbow

I get the same old dreams same time every night
Fall to the ground and I wake up
So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head
Thoughts fly back to the breakup
These four wall are closing in
Look at the fix you put me in
Since you BEEN gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But since you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Since you been gone
So in the night I stand beneath the backstreet light
I read the words that you sent to me
I can take the afternoon,
the night time comes around too soon
You can't know what you mean to me
Your poison letter, your telegram
Just goes to show you don't give a damn
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But since you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Since you been gone
If you will come back
Baby, you know you'll never do wrong
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But since you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Ever since you been gone
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it

I've Never Been To Me - Charlene

only registered users can see external links

Hey lady, you lady
Cursing at your life
You're a discontented mother
And a regimented wife
I've no doubt
You dream about the things you'll never do
But I wish someone had a talk to me like I wanna talk to you
Ooh, I've BEEN to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run
Took the hand of a preacher man
And we made love in the sun
But I ran out of places and friendly faces
Because I had to be free
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me...
Please lady please lady
Don't just walk away
'Cause I have this need to tell you
Why I'm all alone today
I can see so much of me
Still living in your eyes
Won't you share a part
Of a weary heart that has lived a million lives
Ooh, I've been to Nice and the Isle of Greece
When I sipped champagne on a yacht
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
And showed them what I've got
I've been undressed by kings
And I've seen some things that a woman ain't s'posed to see
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me...
Hey, you know what paradise is?
It's a lie
A fantasy we created about people and places
As we like them to be
But you know what truth is?
It's that little baby you're holding
And it's that man you fought with this morning
The same one you are gonna make love to tonight
That's truth that's love
Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children
That might have made me complete
But I, I took the sweet life
I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
I spent my life exploring
The subtle whoring
That costs too much to be free
Hey lady I've been to paradise
But I've never been to me...
I've been to paradise - never been to me
(I've been to Georgia and California, and anywhere I could run)
I've been to paradise - never been to me
(I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
While I sipped champagne on a yacht)
I've been to paradise - never been to me

Tina Turner - Proud Mary

[Tina:]
You know, every now and then
I think you might like to hear something from us
Nice and easy but there's just one thing
You see, we never ever do nothing nice and easy
We always do it nice and rough
So we're going to take the beginning of this song
And do it easy
Then we're going to do the finish rough
This is the way we do 'Proud Mary'

[Ike:]
Left a good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way that things might have BEEN

[Ike and Tina:]
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
Listen to the story

Left a good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way that things might have BEEN

Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling yeah
Rolling
Rolling on the river
Rolling on the river

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Ya know I pumped a lot of 'tane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Until I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen

Ya know the big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling (Rolling)
Rolling yeah (Rolling)
Rolling on the river (Rolling on the river)
Said we're rolling (Rolling)

Proud Mary keep on burning (Burning)
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
We're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

If You Could Read My Mind---Gordon Lightfoot

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
'Bout 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 am a ghost, you can't 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
The hero would BE me
But heroes often fail
And you won't read that book again
Because the ending's just too hard to take
I'd 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 thought I could act 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
'Bout a ghost from a wishing well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
But stories always end
And if you read between the lines
You'll know that I'm just trying to understand
The feelings that you lack
I never thought I could 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

Marvin Gaye - Let’s Get It On

I've been really trying, baby
Trying to hold back this feeling for so long
And if you feel like I feel, baby
Then come on, oh, come on, ooh

Let's get it on, sugar
Let's get it on, woo

We're all sensitive people with so much to give
Understand me, sugar
Since we got to be here, let's live, I love you
There's nothing wrong with me loving you, baby, no, no
And giving yourself to me can never be wrong
If the love is true, oh, baby, ooh

Don't you know how sweet and wonderful life can be, ooh-ooh
I'm asking you, baby, to get it on with me, ooh-ooh-ooh
I ain't gonna worry, I ain't gonna push, I won't push you, baby
So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, baby
Stop beating 'round the bush, hey

Let's get it on, let's get it on
You know what I'm talkin' 'bout
Come on, baby, hey, let your love come out
If you believe in love
Let's get it on, ooh, let's get it on baby
This minute, oh yeah, let's get it on
Please, let's get it on, hey, hey

I know you know what I been dreamin' of, don't you, baby?
My whole body wants that feelin' of love, oh, help me, woo
I ain't gonna worry, no, I ain't gonna push
I won't push you, baby, woo
Come on, come on, come on, come on, darling
Stop beatin' 'round the bush, hey

I wanna get it on
You don't have to worry that it's wrong
If the spirit moves you
Let me groove you good
Let your love come down
Oh, get it on, come on, baby
Do you know the meaning?
Of being sanctified, hey, hey
Girl, you give me good feeling
So good, somethin' like sanctified
Oh, do right, baby
Nothing wrong with love
If you want to love me, just let yourself go
Oh baby, let's get it on right now

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Suck My Kiss

And I'm sailin', yeah
Yeah, oh yeah
Yeah... oh yeah
Hit me!

Shoulda been, coulda been, woulda been dead
If I didn't get the message goin' to my head
I am what I am
Most motherfuckers don't give a damn
Oh, baby, think you can
Be my girl, I'll be your man
Someone full of fun do me 'til I'm well done
Little Bo Peep cummin' from my stun gun
Beware, take care
Most motherfuckers have a cold ass stare
Oh, baby, please be there
Suck my kiss, cut me my share

Hit me, you can't hurt me, suck my kiss
Kiss me, please pervert me, stick with this
Is she talking dirty?
Give to me sweet sacred bliss, your mouth was made to suck my kiss

Look at me, can't you see, all I really want to be
Is free from a world that hurts me
I need relief
Do you want me, girl, to be your thief?
Oh, baby just for you
I'd steal anything that you want me to
K-i-s-s-i-n-g
Chicka chicka dee, do me like a banshee
Low brow is how
Swimming in the sound of bow wow wow
Oh, baby, do me now
Do me here I do allow

Hit me, you can't hurt me, suck my kiss
Kiss me, please pervert me, stick with this
Is she gonna curtsy?

Shoulda been, coulda been, woulda been dead
If I didn't get the message goin' to my head
I am what I am
Most motherfuckers don't give a damn
Oh, baby, think you can
Be my girl, I'll be your man
Someone full of fun do me 'til I'm well done
Little Bo Peep cummin' from my stun gun
Beware, take care
Most motherfuckers have a cold ass stare
Oh, baby, please be there
Suck my kiss, cut me my share

Hit me, you can't hurt me, suck my kiss
Kiss me, please pervert me, stick with this
Is she talking dirty?
Give to me sweet sacred bliss, that mouth was made to suck my kiss

Saving all my love for you - Whitney Houston

A few stolen moments is all that we share
You've got your family and they need you there
Though I've tried to resist being last on your LIST
But no other man's gonna do
So I'm saving all my love for you
It's not very easy living all alone
My friends try and tell me find a man of my own
But each time I try, I just break down and cry
'Cause I'd rather be home feeling blue
So I'm saving all my love for you
You used to tell me we'd run away together
Love gives you the right to be free
You said be patient just wait a little longer
But that's just an old fantasy
I've got to get ready just a few minutes more
Gonna get that old feeling when you walk through that door
'Cause tonight is the night for feeling alright
We'll be making love the whole night through
So I'm saving all my love
Yes, I'm saving all my love
Yes, I'm saving all my love for you
No other woman is gonna love you more
'Cause tonight is the night that I'm feeling alright
We'll be making love the whole night through
So I'm saving all my love
Yeah, I'm saving all my lovin'
Yes, I'm saving all my love for you
For you
For you

Santa baby, just slip a Sable under the tree for me
Been an awful good girl
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, a 54 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 fella's that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be just as good
If you 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 little thing I really need
The deed to a platinum mine
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with the 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 Tiffanys
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, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry, tonight

Toby Keith- MY LIST

only registered users can see external links

Under an old brass paperweight is my LIST of things to do today
Go to the bank and the hardware store, put a new lock on the cellar door
I cross 'em off as I get 'em done but when the sun is set
There's still more than a few things left I haven't got to yet
Go for a walk, say a little prayer
Take a deep breath of mountain air
Put on my glove and play some catch
It's time that I make time for that
Wade the shore and cast a line
Look up a long lost friend of mine
Sit on the porch and give my girl a kiss
Start livin', that's the next thing on my list
Wouldn't change the course of fate but cuttin' the grass just had to wait
Cause I've got more important things like pushin' my kid on the backyard swing
I won't break my back for a million bucks I can't take to my grave
So why put off for tomorrow what I could get done today
Like go for a walk, say a little prayer
Take a deep breath of mountain air
Put on my glove and play some catch
It's time that I make time for that
Wade the shore and cast a line
Look up a long lost friend of mine
Sit on the porch and give my girl a kiss
Start livin', that's the next thing on my list
Raise a little hell, laugh 'til it hurts
Put an extra five in the plate at church
Call up my folks just to chat
It's time that I make time for that
Stay up late, then oversleep
Show her what she means to me
Catch up on all the things I've always missed
Just start livin', that's the next thing on my list
Under an old brass paperweight
Is my list of things to do today

10cc - I'm Mandy, FLY me

only registered users can see external links

Just like a rollin' stone
I'm outside lookin' in
But if your chance came would you take it
Where on earth do I begin
I'm Mandy fly me

I've often heard her jingle
It's never struck a chord
With a smile as bright as sunshine
She called me through the poster
And welcomed me aboard
She led me she fed me
She read me like a book
But I'm hiding in the small print
Won't you take another look
And take me away
Try me Mandy fly me away

The world was spinning like a ball
And then it wasn't there at all
And as my heart began to fall

I saw her walking on the water
As the sharks were comin' for me
I felt Mandy pull me up give me the kiss of life
Just like the girl in Dr. No No No No

Ah when they pulled me from the wreckage
And her body couldn't be found
Was it in my mind it seems
I had a crazy dream
I told them so but they said no no no no

I found me on a street
And starin' at a wall
If it hadn't have been for Mandy
Her promise up above me
Well I wouldn't be here at all
So if you're travellin' in the sky
Don't be surprised if someone said Hi
I'm Mandy fly me

Still you made your mark
Here in my heart
One day I'll FLY away
Leave your love to yesterday
What more can your love do for me?
When will love be through with me?
I follow the night
Can't stand the light
When will I begin
My life again?
One day I'll fly away
Leave your love to yesterday
What more can your love do for me?
When will love be through with me?
Why live life from dream to dream?
And dread the day that dreaming ends?
One day I'll fly away
Leave your love to yesterday
What more can your love do for me?
When will love be through with me?
Why live life from dream to dream?
And dread the day that dreaming ends?
One day I'll fly away
Fly away
One day I'll fly away
Fly away
Fly away

Learning To Fly - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

only registered users can see external links

Well, I started out
Down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down
As I crossed the hill
And the town lit up
The world got still
I'm learning to FLY
But I ain't got wings
Coming down
Is the hardest thing
Well the good ol' days
May not return
And the rocks might melt
And the sea may burn
I'm learning to fly
(I'm learning to fly)
But I ain't got wings
(I'm learning to fly)
And coming down
(I'm learning to fly)
Is the hardest thing
(I'm learning to fly)
Now some say life
Will beat you down
Yeah, break your heart
Steal your crown
So I started out
For God knows where
I guess I'll know
When I get there
I'm learning to fly
Around the clouds
But what goes up
Must come down
I'm learning to fly
(I'm learning to fly)
But I ain't got wings
Coming down
Is the hardest thing
I'm learning to fly
(I'm learning to fly)
Around the clouds
But what goes up
(I'm learning to fly)
Must come down
I'm learning to fly
(I'm learning to fly)
(I'm learning to fly)
I'm learning to fly
(I'm learning to fly)
(I'm learning to fly)
(I'm learning to fly)

Richie Havens - High Flyin’ Bird

There's a high flyin' bird, flying way up in the sky
And I wonder if she looks down, as she goes on by?
Well, she's flying so freely in the sky

Lord, look at me here
I'm rooted like a tree here
Got those sit-down
Can't cry Oh Lord, gonna die blues

Now the sun it comes up and lights up the day
And when he gets tired, Lord, he goes on down his way
To the east and to the west
He meets God every day
Lord, look at me here
I'm rooted like a tree here
Got those sit-down, can't cry
Oh Lord, gonna die blues

Now I had a woman
Lord, she lived down by the mine
She ain't never seen the sun
Oh Lord, never stopped crying

Then one day my woman up and died
Lord, she up and died now
Oh Lord, she up and died now
She wanted to fly
And the only way to fly is die, die, die

There's a high flyin' bird, flying way up in the sky
And I wonder if she looks down as she goes on by?
Well, she's flying so freely in the sky

Lord, look at me here
I'm rooted like a tree here
Got those sit-down, can't cry
Oh, Lord, gonna die blues

Monster Magnet - I Control, I Fly

(Maybe I'll try something else)

Squeeze the back of my head now babe
Say the words just right
Slide the praise of the pneumatic monkey
Like your mom last night
You're in-a-gadda-da-vida honey
Take a bite of the cow
We can piss on a fake revolution
God is telling me how

I can read all the lines on your face
I can breathe all the cancer in space
I can love all the worms of your hate
I can live, live in the void I know
I control, I control, I control

Get a title of your own, motherfuckers
Try to think on your own
The truth is hard to see brothers and sisters
When kings shake at their thrones

I could swear I was here last night
I could swear that I'm just all right
I can fly, I can get so tight
I can drown, drown in the void I know
I control, I control, I control

Fly, fly, fly...

Fun Lovin’ Criminals - King Of New York

Frankie was a mook from the block we used to live on
The wanna be the gangster
The wanna be the dapper Don, Don John
On the wall, an' said
"I'm your biggest fan next to my little brother Paul"
He's losing his grip, like Pesci, he'd flip
If you talk to his brother he says they always planned this trip
He wasn't okie-dokie running around like Don Quixote
Trying to free a man, he didn't even know B
He had the roots and he bought the suits
And the boys didn't like him to tell you the truth, yeah
He had "J.G." on his pinky ring
And he lied about doing some time up in Sing Sing
Flipped one fine Summer afternoon
He told his brother Pauli, "something had to be done soon"
He took Pauli and a couple of boys
And decked the Coupe de Ville to Illinois

La-di da-di, free John Gotti, la-di da-di, la-di
La-di da-di, free John Gotti, the King of New York, the King of New York!
La-di da-di, free John Gotti, la-di da-di, la-di
La-di da-di, free John Gotti, the King of New York, the King of New York!

He got a clipper from a stripper, he met at a club
Two sticks of dynamite, a .38 Snub
He went to see the Don, without an invitation
And stood outside the gate with this three man demonstration
They was waving picket signs, and the C.O. saw a nine
And only Pauli got away with the skin on his behind
Back in the borough, the cops are acting thorough
They raided Frankie's room
That's when they saw his bureau (echo)
Upon it was a note, with a rhyme that was dope
About how he was breaking John out and how he couldn't cope
It said, "I don't fly coach, never save the roach...
The King of New York, The King of New York"
It said, "I don't fly coach, never save the roach...
The King of New York, The King of New York"
It said, "I never fly coach, never save the roach...
The King of New York, The King of New York"

La-di da-di, free John Gotti, la-di da-di, la-di
La-di da-di, free John Gotti, the King of New York man, the King of New York!
La-di da-di, free John Gotti, la-di da-di, la-di
La-di da-di, free John Gotti, the King of New York man, the King of New York!

La-di da-di, free John Gotti, la-di da-di, la-di
La-di da-di, free John Gotti, the King of New York man, the King of New York!
La-di da-di, free John Gotti, la-di da-di, la-di
La-di da-di, free John Gotti, the King of New York man, the King of New York!

The King of New York!!

Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by
You know how I feel
It's a NEW dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
I'm feeling good
Fish in the sea
You know how I feel
River running free
You know how I feel
Blossom on a tree
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
Dragonfly out in the sun, you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun, you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done, that's what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me
For me
Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Oh, freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
I'm feeling good
I feel so good
I feel so good

New Kid In Town - Eagles

There's talk on the street it sounds so familiar
Great expectations everybody's watching you
People you meet they all seem to know you
Even your old friends treat you like you're something NEW
Johnny come lately
The new kid in town
Everybody loves you
So don't let them down
You look in her eyes the music begins to play
Hopeless romantics here we go again
But after awhile you're lookin' the other way
It's those restless hearts that never mend
Oh
Johnny come lately
The new kid in town
Will she still love you?
When you're not around...
There's so many things you should have told her
But night after night you're willing to hold her just hold her
Tears on your shoulder
There's talk on the street it's there to remind you
Doesn't really matter which side you're on
You're walking away and they're talking behind you
They will never forget you 'til somebody new comes along
Where you been lately?
There's a new kid in town
Everybody loves him don't they?
(A-a-h...) And he's holding her
And you're still around...
Oh, my-my
There's a new kid in town
Just another new kid in town...
(Ooh hoo)
Everybody's talking 'bout
The new kid in town
(Ooh hoo)
(Ooh hoo) Everybody's walking like
The new kid in town
(Ooh hoo)
There's a new kid in town
I don't want to hear it
There's a new kid in town
I don't want to hear it
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town
Everybody's talking
There's a new kid in town
People started walking
There's a new kid in town
H-m-m-m h-m-m
There's a new kid in town
H-m-m-m h-m-m
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid

The Pogues - Fairy Tale of NEW York

only registered users can see external links

It was Christmas Eve, babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me
"Won't see another one"
And then he sang a song
The Rare Old Mountain Dew
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you

Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So, Happy Christmas
I love you, baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true

They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you, it's no place for the old
When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me Broadway was waiting for me

You were handsome
You were pretty, Queen of New York City
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging
All the drunks, they were singing
We kissed on a corner
Then danced through the night

The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day

You're a bum, you're a punk
You're an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead
On a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot
You cheap, lousy faggot
Happy Christmas, your arse
I pray God it's our last

The boys of the NYPD choir
Still singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells are ringing out
For Christmas day

"I could have been someone"
Well, so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me, babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you

The boys of the NYPD choir
Still singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells are ringing out
For Christmas day

Led Zeppelin - Immigrant Song

Ahh! Ahh!
We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow

The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new land
To fight the horde, sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming

On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore

Ahh! Ahh!
We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow

How soft your fields so green
Can whisper tales of gore
Of how we calmed the tides of war
We are your overlords

On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore

So now you'd better stop
And rebuild all your ruins
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite of all your losing

Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ah, ah
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh

Beastie Boys - Jimmy James

"This next one is the first song on our new album"

People how you doin', there's a new day dawnin'
For the earth mother, it's a brand new mornin'
For such a long while, there's been such a longin'
But now the sun is shinin', let's roll back the awnin'

Move-move your body

This is a type of kinda like a formal dedication
Givin' out a shout
for much inspiration
All I ever really want to do is get nice
Get loose and goof a little slice of life
Sendin' out love to all corners of the land
I jump up on the stage and take the mic in my hand
I'm not playin' the role
Just being who I am
And if you try to dis me, I couldn't give a damn

Cause I'm rockin'
Rockin'
Rockin'
Rock-rock, rockin'
Yeah, get down
Rock-rock, rock on
Rock-rock, rock on
Rock-rock, rock on
Mic-mic, mic control
Mic-mic, mic control
Mic-mic-mic, mic control
Yeah, can you get my drift?

Bass from the back of my car feels soothin'
Eight bazookas is what I'm usin'
I'm Mike D, and it's been proven
I love it when I see the party people just movin'
Strapped on my ear goggles and what did I see?
But the music brought the people into harmony

Crywank - an intimate MESSAGE

only registered users can see external links

Throwing caution to the CPU fan
I gave you the wardrobe you asked for
Wide eyed, you mortified me
Devastatingly perfect a beating of sorts

If I become nostalgia, you'll always love me more

It snowed today, triple layers and mittens
Three inches on the fencepost, subzero playlist
Skirts lifted in the alcove
Phones resting on the sides of our heads

I didn't know what irony meant, but I'd say it anyway

MESSAGE FROM MARIA—JOE SIMON

only registered users can see external links

I'm sitting home alone in sorrow and misery
Wishing that my Maria, oh, was here to comfort me
Forgetting like the raven
She said never never more more
Then suddenly there came a knock upon a door

And the voice said, I got a MESSAGE from Maria
I open me
Once again I can see her
I got a message from Maria
I hope she's asking me to free her

Listen to me good now

Maria wrote and said my love for you still lingers on
But by the time you read this letter, honey, I may be gone
I saw the teardrop stain on the page while Maria cried
Still though someone wrote
She called your name just before she died

(I got a message from Maria) I cried
Because I'm in a sad mood
Oh, honey, I'm crying
Because I don't know what to do
(I got a message from Maria)
I can't say no more, 'cause I'm sad

Black Grape - Reverend Black Grape

Hey
You know what I mean?

Sell a man your religion
Say I walking down a hit song
A booming business
Buying, selling belief
Standing in the pews
Talking bullshit, bullshit, bullshit
Bullshit, bullshit
I want to know, I want to know
Can you feel the spirit of the lord?

There's nothing more sinister
As ministers in dresses
Gather round some nice black people
While I deliver this message
Kill the message

You do nothing but socialise
And become a menace
Put on your reeboks man
And go play funky tennis

Can I get a witness
I said can, I get a witness

Oh come oh ye faithful
Oh joyful and triumphant
Gather around
While I blow my own trumpet

Oh Pope he got the Nazis
To clean up their messes
In exchange for gold and paintings
He gave them new addresses
Clean up your messes

Hi, hi furer
Hi, hi furer

Oh my father's father's father's father
By nature he was bendy
We are the chi chine tribe
And we are over friendly

Can I get a witness
Yeah
I said
Come on
Can, I get a witness

Oh come all ye faithful
Oh joyful and triumphant
Gather around me
While I blow my own trumpet

Can I get a witness?

Poppycock
For what we are about to receive
Would he agree a stately minuet would be preferable to a rain dance
Hey there bothers and sisters
Hang in there
Yeah

Oh come all ye faithful
Oh joyful and triumphant
Gather around
While I blow my own trumpet

Oh come oh ye faithful
You're so joyful and triumphant
Gather around
While I blow my own trumpet

I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
Can you feel
I said
Can you feel
Can you feel
The spirit of the lord

Oh come all ye faithful
Oh joyful and triumphant
Gather around
While I blow my own trumpet

Can you feel the spirit of the lord?
Can you feel the spirit of the lord?
