World of strange design
Rosanne Cash .

Well you're not from around here
You're probably not our kind
It's hot from March to Christmas
And other things you'll find

Won't fit your old ideas
Their line is shifting sands,
You walk across a ghostly bridge
To a crumbling promise land

If Jesus came from Mississippi
If tears began to rise
I guess I'll start at the beginning
The world of strange design

Well I'd like to have the ocean
But I'd settle for the rain
Humbly as for true love
There was such a price to pay

This room was filled with trouble
And sacraments deceived
And I'm with you, we're in the shade
Of his weeping willow tree

If Jesus came from Mississippi
If tears began to rise
I'll have to go back to the beginning
In this world of strange design

😍 STRANGE Way by Firefall 😍

Didn't I hear you cry this mornin'
Didn't I feel you weep
Teardrops falling down on me
Like rivers in my sleep
In my dream of laughter
You came creeping with your fears
Telling me your sorrow
In the trace ends of your tears
That's a STRANGE way to tell me you love me
When your sorrow is all I can see
If you just want to cry to somebody
Don't cry to me, no
Don't cry to me, no
Didn't I hear your voice this morning
Didn't you call my name
I heard you whisper softly
But the words were never plain
And in your dream of darkness
I came shinin like a sun
Waiting for the laughter
But the laughter I never caught
Didn't you feel alone this mornin'
Didn't you need a friend
And in your darkest hour
You came runnin' back again
That's a STRANGE way to tell me you love me
When your sorrow is all I can see
If you just want to cry to somebody
Don't cry to me, no
Don't cry to me
Don't cry to me
Don't cry to me
Don't cry to me, yeah

STRANGErs IN THE NIGHT
Frank Sinatra

only registered users can see external links

Strangers in the night
Exchanging glances
Wondering in the night
What were the chances
We'd be sharing love
Before the night was through?
Something in your eyes
Was so inviting
Something in your smile
Was so exciting
Something in my heart told me I must have you
Strangers in the night, two lonely people
We were strangers in the night
Up to the moment when we said our first hello
Little did we know
Love was just a glance away, a warm embracing dance away
And ever since that night
We've been together
Lovers at first sight
In love forever
It turned out so right
For strangers in the night
Love was just a glance away, a warm embracing dance away
Ever since that night
We've been together
Lovers at first sight
In love forever
It turned out so right
For strangers in the night
Doo-bee-doo-bee-doo
Doo-doo-dee-dah, dah-dah-dah-dah-dah

Paul Simon: You Can Call Me Al
only registered users can see external links

A man walks down the street
He says, Why am I soft in the middle now?
Why am I soft in the middle?
When the rest of my life is so hard!
I need a photo-opportunity
I want a shot at redemption
Don't want to end up a cartoon
In a cartoon graveyard

Bonedigger, Bonedigger
Dogs in the moonlight
Far away, my well-lit door
Mr. Beerbelly, Beerbelly
Get these mutts away from me!
You know, I don't find this stuff amusing anymore

If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty
And Betty, when you call me
You can call me Al

A man walks down the street
He says, Why am I short of attention?
Got a short little span of attention
And whoa, my nights are so long!
Where's my wife and family?
What if I die here?
Who'll be my role-model?
Now that my role-model is
Gone, gone
He ducked back down the alley
With some roly-poly, little bat-faced girl
All along, along
There were incidents and accidents
There were hints and allegations

If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty
And Betty, when you call me
You can call me Al
Call me Al

A man walks down the street
It's a street in a STRANGE world
Maybe it's the Third World
Maybe it's his first time around
He doesn't speak the language
He holds no currency
He is a foreign man
He is surrounded by the sound, sound
Cattle in the marketplace
Scatterlings and orphanages
He looks around, around
He sees angels in the architecture
Spinning into infinity

He says, Amen! and Hallelujah!
If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty
And Betty, when you call me

You can call me Al (Call me)
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na ...
If you'll be my bodyguard...
I can call you Betty...
If you'll be my bodyguard...
I can call you betty...
If you'll be my bodyguard...

STRANGEr IN PARADISE- JOHNNY MATHIS

Oh why do the leaves of the mulberry tree whisper differently now?
And why is the nightingale singing at noon on the mulberry bough?
For some most mysterious reason this isn't garden I know...
No, it's paradise now that was only a garden a moment a go.
Take my hand I'm a stranger in paradise
All lost in a wonderland a stranger in paradise
If I stand starry-eyed that's the danger in paradise
For mortals who stand beside an angel like you
I saw your face and I ascended
Out of the commonplace into the rare
Somewhere in space I hang suspended
Until I know there's a chance that you care
Won't you answer this fervent prayer
Of a stranger in paradise
Don't send me in dark despair from all that I hunger for
But open your angel's arms to this stranger in paradise
And tell him that he need be a stranger no more.

Josh Groban, YOU RAISE ME UP

When I am down, and, oh, my soul, so weary
When troubles come, and my heart burdened be
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with me
You RAISE me up, so I can stand on mountains
You RAISE me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You RAISE me up to more than I can be
You RAISE me up, so I can stand on mountains
You RAISE me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You RAISE me up to more than I can be
You RAISE me up, so I can stand on mountains
You RAISE me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You RAISE me up to more than I can be
You RAISE me up, so I can stand on mountains
You RAISE me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You RAISE me up to more than I can be
You RAISE me up to more than I can be

Raised on Rock - Elvis


only registered users can see external links


I remember as a child I used to hear
Music that they played Lord with a feel
Some call it folk, some call it soul
But people let me tell you it was rock and roll

I was RAISED on rock, I got rhythm in my soul
Every day when I got home I turned on my radio

Listening to the music that my idols made
I knew every single record the DJ's played
A honky tonk a Hound Dog, a Johnny B. Goode
Chain Gang, Love Is Strange, Knock On Wood

I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul
I was born to love the beat, I was made for rock and roll

I thought it was a fad, thought that it would pass
But the younger generation knew it would last
Time's gone by, the beat goes on
But every time I hear it Lord it takes me home

I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul
Every day when I got home I turned on my radio

Mother played recordings of Beethoven's Fifth
Mozart's sonatas down the classical Liszt
My papa loved to listen to those country songs
While I was in the back room rockin' on

I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul
I was born to love the beat, I was made for rock and roll

I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul
I was born to love the beat, I was made for rock and roll
I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul

The night they drove old Dixie down - Joan Baez

Virgil Caine is my name and I drove on the Danville train
'Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again
In the winter of '65, we were hungry, just barely alive
I took the train to Richmond that fell
It was a time I remember, oh, so well
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringin'
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singin'
They went, "Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na"
Back with my wife in Tennessee
And one day she said to me
"Virgil, quick! Come see
There goes Robert E. Lee"
Now I don't mind, I'm chopping wood
And I don't care if the money's no good
Just take what you need and leave the rest
But they should never have taken the very best
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringin'
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singin'
They went, "Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na"
Like my father before me, I'm a working man
And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand
Well, he was just eighteen, proud and brave
But a yankee laid him in his grave
I swear by the blood below my feet
You can't RAISE a Caine back up when he's in defeat
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringin'
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singin'
They went, "Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na"

Baby Driver - Simon and Garfunkel

My daddy was the family bassman
My mama was an engineer
And I was born one dark gray morn
With music coming in my ears, in my ears
They call me Baby Driver
And once upon a pair of wheels I hit the road and I'm gone
What's my number? I wonder how your engines feel
Scoot down the road, what's my number?
I wonder how your engines feel
Shine a light
My daddy was a prominent frogman
My mama's in the Naval reserve
When I was young I carried a gun
But I never got the chance to serve, I did not serve
They call me Baby Driver
And once upon a pair of wheels I hit the road and I'm gone
What's my number? I wonder how your engines feel
Scoot down the road, what's my number?
I wonder how your engines feel
My daddy got a big promotion
My mama got a RAISE in pay
There's no one home, we're all alone
Oh, come to my room and play, yes, we can play
I'm not talking about your pigtails
But I'm talking 'bout your sex appeal
I hit the road and I'm gone
What's my number? I wonder how your engines-
Scoot down the road, what's my number?
I wonder how your engines feel

Just come on and come on and raise your glass (for me)

Born and raised in black and white - The Highwaymen

The wind blows hard across the Texas planes.
Makes some people go insane,
While others quietly pray for rain.
That's where we came from.
Two boys playing in the burning sun,
One with books, one with guns.
Mama calls but just one comes,
The other one runs.
In a crystal sense of wrong and right,
We were born and raised in black and white.
One learned to pray, one learned to fight.
We were born and RAISED in black and white.
We were born and RAISED in black and white.
Brother took to the gospel road,
Spent his whole life savin' souls.
When he looked at me his blood ran cold,
He didn't even try.
I had no dreams, I had no plans.
But a gun felt good in my right hand.
The warden asked, "How come you killed that man?"
I said, "I don't know why."
Welcome home said the hot moonlight.
We were born and raised in black and white.
One lives to pray, one prays for life.
We were born and RAISED in black and white.
We were born and RAISED in black and white.
Someone handed me a cigarette.
They offered me my last request.
I asked my mortal soul be blessed,
By someone close to me.
He came to me with trembling hands,
He swore he'd never understand.
I said it's just what life had planned.
It's destiny.
Don't waste your tears on me tonight.
We were born and raised in black and white.
I chose the dark, you chased the light.
We were born and RAISED in black and white.
We were born and RAISED in black and white.
The wind blows hard across the Texas plains.
Makes some people go insane,
While others quietly pray for rain.

Cheap Trick Gonna Raise Hell
only registered users can see external links

Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.

Ambition? ha!
If all i've heard is true, there's nothin' much i can do
To change the world, it's irreversible.
But in what it lacks, it's got a taste that smacks
of somethin' irresistable.

Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.

Submission? yes!
Now i won't name names, and a secret's a secret,
But a hint's a hint or a clue.
You really wanna know, you really wanna go,
There's only two things you got to do.

Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.

Mother, mother.
Mother, mother.
Mother, mother.

My mission? ah, yes!
Everybody hear? everybody here,
It's a fate i all agree.
Sometimes you win, i never lose,
To me it's no mystery.

Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.

Wrecked my brain yesterday for this one so I'm posting this outside the time limit.

Bob Dylan Thunder on the mountain

Thunder on the mountain, and there's fires on the moon
A ruckus in the alley and the sun will be here soon
Today's the day, gonna grab my trombone and blow
Well, there's hot stuff here and it's everywhere I go

I was thinkin' 'bout Alicia Keys, couldn't keep from crying
But she was born in Hell's Kitchen, I was living down the line
I'm wondering where in the world Alicia Keys could be
I been looking for her even clear through Tennessee

Feel like my soul is beginning to expand
Look into my heart and you will sort of understand
You brought me here, now you're trying to run me away
The writing on the wall, come read it, come see what it say

Thunder on the mountain, rollin' like a drum
Gonna sleep over there, that's where the music coming from
I don't need any guide, I already know the way
Remember this, I'm your servant both night and day

The pistols are poppin' and the power is down
I'd like to try somethin' but I'm so far from town
The sun keeps shinin' and the North Wind keeps picking up speed
Gonna forget about myself for a while, go out and see what others need

I've been sittin' down studyin' the art of love
I think it? ll fit me like a glove
I want some real good woman to do just what I say
Everybody got to wonder what's the matter with this cruel world today

Thunder on the mountain, rolling to the ground
Gonna get up in the morning walk the hard road down
Some sweet day I'll stand beside my king
I wouldn't betray your love or any other thing

Gonna RAISE me an army, some tough sons of bitches
I'll recruit my army from the orphanages
I been to St. Herman's church, said my religious vows
I've sucked the milk out of a thousand cows

I got the pork chops, she got the pie
She ain't no angel and neither am I
Shame on your greed, shame on your wicked schemes
I'll say this, I don't give a damn about your dreams

Thunder on the mountain, heavy as can be
Mean old twister bearing down on me
All the ladies in Washington are scrambling to get out of town
Looks like something bad gonna happen, better roll your airplane down

Everybody going and I want to go too
Don't wanna take a chance with somebody new
I did all I could, I did it right there and then
I've already confessed, no need to confess again

Gonna make a lot of money, gonna go up north
I'll plant and I'll harvest what the earth brings forth
The hammer's on the table, the pitchfork's on the shelf
For the love of God, you ought to take pity on yourself

Twice Daily - The Wurzels


only registered users can see external links


When I were a lad I were so glad to go out in the daytime
With me fork, and a bottle and a cork to help out in the haytime
While tossin' hay upon the mound met young Lucy Bailey
And I said my dear Are you often here, she said Yes sir, twice DAILY

We had such fun in the summer sun, Lucy were so thrillin'
Sweet and pure but I wern't sure that young maid were willin'
Till one day among the hay we was working gaily
She up's and slips and zomut rips and I went there twice DAILY

(Oh Ah Oh I did too)

She said dear I do feel queer think I outa tellee
Tant new bread she sadly said that swelling up me belly
Told her go to Doctor Joe off she went so gaily
He gave a dollop of a gert thick jollop and said take this twice DAILY

( Orriable stuff twer )

Now Lucy's dad wer very mad, chased I 'round the haymound
Said my son you've had your fun, the time has come to pay now
My girl you'll wed, the old man said as he waved his shotgun gaily
If you don't, he says, I'll put the lead and you won't go there twice DAILY

(Ow painful that )


Well the very next day in the month of May held the ceremony
Paid off the vicar with a gallon of liquor, rode to church on a pony
And the village folks from miles around waved and shouted gaily
There's no doubt you'll get found out if you goes there twice DAILY

( They were right too (I did)

Now to Lucy's joy she had a boy, what a little darlin'
Round and fat as a Cheshire cat, perky as a starlin'
Skin were smooth as a cider jar and they called him Buster Bailey
Fed him on sweeds and charlotte weeds and a pint of scrump twice DAILY

( Fat little bleeder too)

Now we'me old, our story's told, forty years together
And we often stray where we tossed the hay in that old time summer weather
Kids we've got full ten or more, we goes on quiet gaily
Tho' I'm old and grey when I've got me way I still go there twice DAILY

Wainwright Loudon The Good Ship Venus
only registered users can see external links

On the good ship Venus
By Christ you should have seen us
The figurehead was a whore in bed
Sucking a dead man's penis

The captain's name was Lugger
By Christ he was a bugger
He wasn't fit to shovel shit
From one ship to another

And the second mate was Andy
By Christ he had a dandy
Till they crushed his cock on a jagged rock
For cumming in the brandy

The third mate's name was Morgan
By God he was a gorgon
From half past eight he played till late
Upon the captain's organ

The fourth mate's name was Jean
He iinvented a wanking machine
The fucking thing broke
And whipped his balls to cream

The captain's wife was Mabel
And by God was she able
To give the crew their DAILY screw
Upon the galley table

The captain's daughter Charlotte
Was born and bred a harlot
Her thighs at night were lily white
By morning they were scarlet

The cabin boy was Kipper
By Christ he was a nipper
He stuffed his ass with broken glass
And circumcised the skipper

The captain's lovely daughter
Liked swimming in the water
Delighted squeals came when some eels
Found her sexual quarters

The cook his name was Freeman
And he was a dirty demon
And he fed the crew on menstrual stew
And hymens fried in semen

And the ship's dog was called Rover
And we turned the poor thing over
And ground and ground that faithful hound
From Teneriff to Dover

When we reached our station
Through skillful navigation
The ship got sunk in a wave of spunk
From too much fornication

On the good ship Venus
By Christ you should have seen us
The figurehead was a whore in bed
Sucking a dead man's penis

Blindness is a part of every game you've played

BEND it, bend it, just a little bit

Without you, baby, I'm so insecure

So just relax, there's stacks of time, but honey
Please don't tease me - try to please me

Oh-yeah, that's good, oh-yes, ah-yes

Breeze, sing a happy song
This heart of mine is singing right along
Don't know where I'm going, don't know where it ends
Till the grass is greener, beyond the BEND

I haven't got a care
I'm just on my way to anywhere
Pocketful of nothing, nothing I can spend
Hope the grass is greener, beyond the bend

Beyond the bend, perhaps there'll be
Somebody waiting who's right for me

So I got to move around
And I know I've got to cover ground
Oh, the trip is shorter when you got a friend
Gotta find that rainbow beyond the bend

Beyond the bend, perhaps there'll be
Somebody waiting who's right for me

So I got to move around
And I know I've got to cover ground
Oh, the trip is shorter when you got a friend
Gotta find that rainbow beyond the bend
Beyond the bend, beyond the bend

Tom Rush: Casey Jones

Miss Casey said she dreamt a dream
The night she bought her sewing machine.
The needle got broke and she could not sew.
Loved Mister Casey 'cause she told me so.
...Told me so...
...Told me so...
She loved Mister Casey 'cause she told me so.

Now Monday morning, at four o'clock.
Casey told his fireman get the boilers hot.
Put on your water, put on your coal,
Put your head out the window, see my driver wheel roll
...See my driver wheel roll...
Put your head out the window, see my drive wheel roll.

Some people goin’ a tell ya Casey Jones can't run.
Let me tell you what Casey done.
He left Memphis, was a quarter to nine.
Got to Newport News ‘fore dinner time
...”Fore was dinner time...
Got to Newport News, ‘fore dinner time.

Hey look a yonder comin’ down that line

You can tell by the way that the whistle moans
The man at the throttle that’s Casey Jones
That’s Casey Jones
That’s Casey Jones
The man at the throttle that’s Casey Jones

Now Monday mornin’ at six o’clock.
Casey’s engine began to reel and rock
Casey told the fireman “Keep yourself hid
We gonna shake it like Chaney did”
Like Chaney did
Like Chaney did
We gonna shake it like Chaney did
Hey look a yonder waitin’ down that line
Ten little children on the doorstep cryin’
Momma Momma can’t keep from cryin’
Poppa got killed on the central line
On the central line
On the central line
Poppa got killed on the central line

Now Monday mornin' come a shower of rain
'Round the BEND come a passenger train
Tipped his brake, blew his horn
He's a good engineer but he's dead and gone
He's dead and gone
He's dead and gone
He's a good engineer but he's dead and gone
And Miss Casey said she dreamt a dream
The night she bought her sewing machine.
The needle got broke and she could not sew.
Loved Mister Casey 'cause she told me so.
...Told me so...
...Told me so...
She loved Mister Casey 'cause she told me so.

Grateful Dead: Casey Jones


Driving that train
High on cocaine
Casey Jones you better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind.

This old engine makes it on time
Leaves Central Station 'bout a quarter to nine
Hits River Junction at seventeen to
At a quarter to ten you know it's travlin' again.

Driving that train
High on cocaine
Casey Jones you better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

Trouble ahead, oh, Lady in red,
Take my advice you'd be better off dead.
Switchman's sleeping, train hundred and two is
On the wrong track and headed for you.

Driving that train
High on cocaine,
Casey Jones you better watch your speed.
Trouble ahead, trouble behind,
And you know that notion just crossed my mind.

Drive your train!

Trouble with you is the trouble with me
Got two good eyes but you still don't see
Come round the BEND, you know it's the end
The fireman screams and the engine just gleams

Casey Jones you better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

Driving that train

Casey Jones you better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

Driving that train
High on cocaine
Casey Jones you better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

And you know that notion just crossed my mind
