The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!
Hey little boy, what you got there?
Kind sir, it's a mollusk I've found
Did you find it in the sandy ground?
Does it emulate the ocean's sound?
Yes I found it on the ground
Emulating the ocean's sound
Bring forth the mollusk cast unto me
Let's be forever, let forever be free
Hey little boy come walk with me
And bring your new found mollusk along
Does it speaketh of the Trinity?
Can it gaze at the sun with its wandering eye?
Yes it speaks of the Trinity
Casting light at the sun with it's wandering eye
Bring forth the mollusk cast unto me
Let's be forever, let forever be free
You see there are three things that spur the mollusk from the sand
The waking of all creatures that live on the land
And with just one faint glance back into the sea
The mollusk lingers with it's wandering eye

Come on, come on, come on, come on
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
After nine days I let the horse run free
'Cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
there was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

Farewell my love
I must be gone
and leave you for a while
Wherever I go I shall return
if I go ten thousand miles
If I go
if I go
if I go ten thousand miles
Oh ten thousand miles
it is so far
to leave me here alone
Well I may lie, lament and cry
and you’ll, you’ll not hear my mourn
And you’ll
and you’ll
and you’ll not hear my mourn
Oh the CROW that is so black my love
will change its colour white
If ever I shall prove false to thee
the day, the day will turn to night
Yes the day
yes the day
yes the day will turn to night
Oh the rivers they will never run dry
for the rocks melt with the sun
I’ll never prove false to the boy I love
till all, till all these things be done
Yes till all
yes till all
yes till all these things be done
If I go
If I go
If I go ten thousand miles
And you’ll
and you’ll
and you’ll not hear my mourn
if I go ten thousand miles
if I go ten thousand miles
if I go ten thousand miles
if I go ten thousand miles

On white HORSES
let me ride away
To my world of dreams
so far away
Let me run
to the sun
To a world my heart
can understand
It's a gentle, warm
and wonder land
Far away
Stars away
Where the clouds
are made of candyfloss
As the day is born
When the stars
are gone
we'll race to
meet the dawn
So when I can
only see the grey
Of a sad and
very lonely day
that's when I
softly sigh
On white horses
Snowy white horses
Let me ride away
Where the clouds
are made of candyfloss
As the day is born
When the stars
are gone
we'll race to
meet the dawn
So when I can
only see the grey
Of a sad and
very lonely day
that's when I
softly sigh
On white horses
Snowy white horses
Let me ride away
Away, away
Away, away
A theme tune that I am sure will bring back memories for people of a certain age.
I love my dog as much as I love you
But you may fade, my dog will always come through
All he asks from me is the food to give him strength
All he ever needs is love and that he knows he'll get
So, I love my dog as much as I love you
But you may fade, my dog will always come through
All the pay I need comes a-shinin' through his eyes
I don't need no cold water to make me realize that
I love my dog as much as I love you
But you may fade, my dog will always come through
I love my dog as much as I love you
But you may fade, my dog will always come through
I love my dog, baby, I love my dog
I said, I love my dog, baby, I love my dog
Baby, I love my dog

Ride it on out like a bird in the sky ways
Ride it on out like you were a bird
Fly it all out like an eagle in a sunbeam
Ride it on out like you were a bird
Wear a tall hat like a druid in the old days
Wear a tall hat and a tatooed 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 a place it on your fore-head
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, oh
Wear a tall hat like a druid in the old days
Wear a tall hat and a tatooed gown
Ride a white swan like the people of the Beltane

A long time ago, when the earth was still green
And there were more kinds of animals than you've ever seen
They'd run around free while the earth was being born
But the loveliest of all was the UNICORN
There was green alligators and long-necked GEESE
Some humpty-backed camels and some CHIMPANZEES
Some CATS and RATS and ELEPHANTS, but sure as you're born
The loveliest of all was the unicorn
Now god seen some sinnin' and it gave him pain
And he says, "stand back, I'm going to make it rain"
He says, "hey, brother Noah, I'll tell you what to do
Build me a floating ****"
And take some of them green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty-backed camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants, but sure as you're born
Don't you forget my unicorn"
Old Noah was there to answer the call
He finished up making the ark just as the rain started fallin'
He marched in the animals two by two
And he called out as they went through
"Hey, Lord"
I've got your green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty-backed camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants, but Lord, I'm so forlorn
I just can't see no unicorn"
Then Noah looked out through the driving rain
Them unicorns was hiding, playing silly games
Kicking and splashing while the rain was pouring
Oh, them silly unicorns
There was green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty-backed camels and some chimpanzees
Noah cried, "close the doors 'cause the rain is pourin'
And we just can't wait for no unicorns"
The ark started movin', it drifted with the tide
Them unicorns looked up from the rock and they cried
And the waters came down and sort of floated them away
And that's why you'll never see a unicorn, to this very day
You'll see green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty-backed camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants, but sure as you're born
You're never gonna see no unicorn
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
Keep everything in the farm yard upset in every way
The dogs begin to bark and hounds begin to howl
Dogs begin to bark and hounds begin to howl
Watch out strange cat people
Little red rooster's on the prowl
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
Ain't had no peace in the farm yard
Since my little red rooster's been gone

When I asked her what's the matter
This is what I heard her say
See you later ALLIGATOR, after 'while CROCODILE
See you later ALLIGATOR, after 'while CROCODILE
Can't you see you're in my way now
Don't you know you cramp my style
When I though of what she told me, nearly made me lose my head

But the next time that I saw her
Reminded her of what she said
See you later ALLIGATOR, after 'while CROCODILE

She said I'm sorry pretty daddy, you know my love is just for you

Won't you say that you'll forgive me
And say your love for me is true
I said wait a minute 'gator, I know you mean it just for play
I said wait a minute 'gator, I know you mean it just for play
Don't you know you really hurt me
And this is what I have to say
See you later ALLIGATOR, after 'while CROCODILE
See you later ALLIGATOR, after 'while CROCODILE
Can't you see you're in my way now
Don't you know you cramp my style

Love is a burnin' thing
And it makes a fiery ring
Bound by wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire
I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire
I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire
The taste of love is sweet
When hearts like ours meet
I fell for you like a child
Oh, but the fire went wild
I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire
I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire
The ring of fire, the ring of fire

I have the invitation that you sent me
You wanted me to see you changed your name
I couldn't stand to see you wed another
But dear I hope you're happy just the same
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
Should be ringing out for you and me
Down the aisle with someone else you're walking
Wedding bells will never RING for me
I planned a little cottage in the valley (la la la la)
I even bought a little band of gold
I thought someday I'd place it on your finger (la la la la)
Now the future looks so dark and cold
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
I hear the children laughing out with glee
At home alone I hang my head in sorrow
Wedding bells will never RING for me
I fancy that I see a bunch of roses
A blossom from an orange tree in your hair
While the organ plays I love you truly
Please let me pretend that it's me there

I was sitting by the phone
I was waiting all alone
Baby by myself I sit and wait and wonder about you
It's a dark and dreary night
Seems like nothing's going right
Won't you tell me honey how can I go on here without you?
Yes I'm down and feeling blue
And I don't know what to do, oh-oh
Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won't you please understand the need in me
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
You were here and now you're gone
Hey did I do something wrong?
I just can't believe that I could be so badly mistaken
Was it me or was it you?
Tell me, are we really through?
Won't you hear me cry and you will know that my heart is breaking
Please forgive and then forget
Or maybe darling better yet, oh-oh
Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won't you please understand the need in me
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Oh-oh, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?

She wears my RING to show the world that she belongs to me
She wears my RING to show the world she's mine eternally
With loving care I placed it on her finger
To show my love for all the world to see
This tiny RING is a token of tender emotion
An endless pool of love that's as deep as the ocean
She swears to wear it with eternal devotion
That's why I sing, because she wears my RING
She swears to wear it with eternal devotion
That's why I sing, because she wears my RING
This tiny RING is a token of tender emotion
An endless pool of love that's as deep as the ocean
She swears to wear it with eternal devotion
That's why I sing, because she wears my RING
That's why I sing, because she wears my RING
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
"Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away"
Pink Floyd . On the turning away .
It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it's shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud
On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord
Using words you will find are strange
And mesmerized as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night
No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?

You know, the landlord rang my front door bell.
I let it ring for a long, long spell.
I went to the window,
I peeped through the blind,
And asked him to tell me what's on his mind.
He said,
MONEY honey.
Money, honey.
Money, honey, if you want to get along with me.
Well, I screamed and I hollered,
I was so hard-pressed.
I called the woman that I loved the best.
I finally got my baby about half past three,
She said I'd like to know what you want with me.
I said,
Money, honey.
Money, honey.
Money, honey,
If you want to get along with me.
Well, I said tell me baby, what's wrong with you?
From this day on our romance is through
I said, tell me baby, face to face
How could another man take my place?
She said,
Money, honey.
Money, honey.
Money, honey,
If you want to get a long with me.
Well, I've learned my lesson and now I know
The sun may shine and the winds may blow.
The women may come and the women may go,
But before I say I love you so,
I want
Money, honey.
Money, honey.
Money, honey,
If you want to get along with me.

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball
MONEY, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha aha
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
It's a rich man's world
A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha aha
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
Money, money, money

MONEY ... Money
Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money
Money makes the world go around
...the world go around
...the world go around.
Money makes the world go around
Of that we both are sure...
*Rasberry sound* on being poor!
Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money...
When you haven't any coal in the stove
And you freeze in the winter
And you curse to the wind at your fate.
When you haven't any shoes on your feet,
Your coat's thin as paper,
And you look 30 pounds underweight
When you go to get a word of advice
From the fat little pastor,
He will tell you to love evermore.
But when hunger comes to rap,
Rat-a-tat rat-a-tat at the window
*Knock knock* (at the window)
Who's there? (hunger) oh, hunger!
See how love flies out the door...
For, money makes the world go around
...the world go around
...the world go around.
Money makes the world go 'round
The clinking, clanking sound of...
Money money money money
Money money money money...
Get a little, get a little
Money money money money...
Mark, a yen, a buck or a pound,
That clinking, clanking, clunking sound,
Is all that makes the world go 'round,
It makes the world go 'round!
The best things in life are free
But you can keep them for the birds and bees
Now give me money
That's what I want
That's what I want, yeah
That's what I want
You're lovin' gives me a thrill
But you're lovin' don't pay my bills
Now give me money
That's what I want
That's what I want, yeah
That's what I want
Money don't get everything it's true
What it don't get, I can't use
Now give me money
That's what I want
That's what I want, yeah
That's what I want, wah
Money don't get everything it's true
What it don't get, I can't use
Now give me money
That's what I want
That's what I want, yeah
That's what I want
Well now give me money
A lot of money
Wow, yeah, I want to be free
Oh I want money
That's what I want
That's what I want, well
Now give me money
A lot of money
Wow, yeah, you need money
Now, give me money

Didn't do it cause I could
Didn't do it for all the pain and suffering
Rah rah freeze stance
Strong army do a dance
I didn't do it for a thing
Than other than the MONEY
We did it for the MONEY
You know we did it for the MONEY
Come on, we all did it for the MONEY
Money
We did it for the MONEY
We did it for the MONEY
We all did it for the MONEY

The Devil WENT down to Georgia. He was lookin' for a soul to steal
He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind. He was willing to make a deal
When he came across this young man sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot
And the Devil jumped upon a hickory stump and said "Boy, let me tell you what"
"I guess you didn't know it, but I'm a fiddle player, too
And if you'd care to take a dare I'll make a bet with you
Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy, but give the Devil his due
I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul 'cause I think I'm better than you"
The boy said, "My name's Johnny, and it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet; and you're gonna regret 'cause I'm the best there's ever been"
Johnny, rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard
'Cause Hell's broke loose in Georgia and the Devil deals the cards
And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold
But if you lose the devil gets your soul
The Devil opened up his case and he said, "I'll start this show"
And fire flew from his fingertips as he rosined up his bow
And he pulled the bow across the strings and it made an evil hiss
And a band of demons joined in and it sounded something like this
When the Devil finished, Johnny said, "Well, you're pretty good ol' son
But sit down in that chair right there and let me show you how it's done"
"Fire on the Mountain." Run, boys, run
The Devil's in the house of the rising sun
Chicken's in the bread pan picking out dough
Granny, does your dog bite? No, child, no
The Devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat
And he laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet
Johnny said, "Devil, just come on back. If you ever wanna try again
I done told you once — you son of a bitch — I'm the best that's ever been"
And he played
"Fire on the Mountain." Run, boys, run
The Devil's in the house of the rising sun
Chicken's in the bread pan picking out dough
Granny, will your dog bite? No, child, no

I live in a nameless town
No need to wander around
I live in a nameless town
In a black out
Many friends have said goodbye
Paraded out in one proud line
I say they all just lost their minds
Midnight where we used to dance
Underneath the ugly halogen lamps
Oh, it all WENT away so fast
In a black out
We'll wait for the year
When the tide comes
Rolling over the rails
From here 'til the end
Of the island
Washing away
I rent a room with all our stuff
When you come home I'd lift you up
And there's only the two of us
Black out
Now you're sleeping in the back
Of a speeding yellow cab
Throw a kiss goodbye to all of that

There are places I'll remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone, and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends, I still can recall
Some are dead, and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that WENT before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I'll love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I'll love you more
In my life I'll love you more
I went to the crossroad, fell down on my knees
I went to the crossroad, fell down on my knees
Asked the Lord above "Have mercy, now save poor Bob, if you please"
Yeoo, standin' at the crossroad, tried to flag a ride
Ooo eeee, I tried to flag a ride
Didn't nobody seem to know me, babe, everybody pass me by
Standin' at the crossroad, baby, risin' sun goin' down
Standin' at the crossroad, baby, eee, eee, risin' sun goin' down
I believe to my soul, now, poor Bob is sinkin' down
You can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie Brown
You can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie Brown
That I got the crossroad blues this mornin', Lord, babe, I'm sinkin' down
And I went to the crossroad, mama, I looked east and west
I went to the crossroad, baby, I looked east and west
Lord, I didn't have no sweet woman, ooh well, babe, in my distress

The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there and they began to wail
The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing
You should've heard them knocked-out jailbirds sing
Let's rock; everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone
The drummer boy from Illinois WENT crash, boom, bang
The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang
Let's rock; everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Number forty-seven said to number three
"You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see
I sure would be delighted with your company
Come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me"
Let's rock; everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Sad sack was sittin' on a block of stone
Way over in the corner weepin' all alone
The warden said, "Hey, buddy, don't you be no square
If you can't find a partner, use a wooden chair"
Let's rock; everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Shifty Henry said to Bugs, "For Heaven's sake
No one's lookin'; now's our chance to make a break"
Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said, "Nix, nix
I want to stick around a while and get my kicks"
Let's rock; everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

I listen for your footsteps
Coming up the drive.
Listen for your footsteps
But they don't arrive.
Waiting for your knock, dear
On my old front door.
I don't hear it,
Does it mean you don't love me anymore?
I hear the clock a'ticking,
On the mantel shelf.
See the hands a'moving,
But I'm by myself.
I wonder where you are tonight,
And why I'm by myself.
I don't see you,
Does it mean you don't love me anymore?
Don't PASS me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue.
'Cause you know darling, I love only you.
You'll never know it hurt me so,
I hate to see you go.
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry.
I'm sorry that I doubted you,
I was so unfair.
You were in a car crash,
And you lost your hair.
You said that you would be late
About an hour or two.
I said, "That's alright, I'm waiting here,
Just waiting to hear from you".
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue.
'Cause you know darling, I love only you.
You'll never know it hurt me so,
I hate to see you go.
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry.
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue.
'Cause you know darling, I love only you.
You'll never know it hurt me so,
I hate to see you go.
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry.

With vision
I say pass the dutchie on the left hand side
PASS the dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance
It was a cool and lovely breezy afternoon
How does it feel when you've got no food?
You could feel it cause it was the month of June
How does it feel when you've got no food?
So I left my gate and went out for a walk
How does it feel when you've got no food?
As I pass the dreadlocks camp I heard them say
How does it feel when you've got no food?
So I stopped to find out what was going on
How does it feel when you've got no food?
'Cause the spirit of Jah, you know he leads you on
How does it feel when you've got no food?
There was a ring of dreads and a session was there in swing
How does it feel when you've got no food?
You could feel the chill as I seen and heard them say
How does it feel when you've got no food?
'Cause me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass
Give me little music make me wind up me waist
Me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass
Give me little music make me wind up me waist, I say
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance

We get hasenpfeffer

We'd like to be heroes

You see my oldest friend
Tell her that I'm gone again
You take my old guitar
The one that I once said was ours
Don't be blue
You hum that old tune
The one I used to sing for you
When we were alone
You ask her if she knew
Was this something I would do?
From the start
Please don't PASS me by
If I'm walking but I don't know why
It's something that I have to try
Can you love me if I put up a fight?

We seem like PASSING strangers now
How can you hurry by?
There were never two who loved
Half as much as you and I
We seem like passing strangers now
Funny, how things can change
We were so inseparable
Now you're acting very strange
The hands I used to touch
Don't even wave hello
How I miss your lips
You'll never know
If you would only turn to me
Speak my name just once more
You might find right there and then
Strangers can be lovers again
The hands I used to touch
Don't even wave hello
How I miss your lips
You'll never know
If you would only turn to me
Speak my name just once more
You might find right there and then
Strangers can be lovers again

Benjamin was on the road
He sent me a message, said that he missed me
The weekend was grey
The morning brought a dampening mist
And your eyes were watering with the breeze
The minutes slipped in the space between
PULL me nearer to you
Our stomachs rumbled, in the morning I put
Birds in baskets, you made the bed
I've always had more words
Than with which I knew what to do
But now none of them even nearly suffice
I laughed while you just closed your eyes
Catch me under your spell
I don't ever wanna see her landing
Skyscraper number twenty-two
Face-down on the bathroom floor
I don't ever wanna see her landing
And your cat left a scratch right across my left arm
I handled your hair into a tangle of knots
And I'm not gonna lie
I laid the lightest load at your feet
And now I feel so fucking defeated
And now the cycles all just repeated
PULL me back into you

I got a girl crush
Hate to admit it but
I got a heart rush
Ain't slowing down
I got it real bad
Want everything she has
That smile and that midnight laugh
She's giving you now
I want to taste her lips
Yeah, 'cause they taste like you
I want to drown myself
In a bottle of her perfume
I want her long blonde hair
I want her magic touch
Yeah, 'cause maybe then
You'd want me just as much
I got a girl crush
I got a girl crush
I don't get no sleep

KEEP on running, keep on hiding
One fine day I'm gonna be the one
To make you understand
Oh, yeah, I'm gonna be your man.
Keep on running, running from my arms
One fine day I'm gonna be the one
To make you understand
Oh yeah, I'm gonna be your man.
Hey, hey, hey
Everyone is talking about me
It makes me feel so sad.
Hey, hey, hey
Everyone is laughing at me,
It makes me feel so bad,
So keep on running
Keep on running, running from my arms
One fine day I'm gonna be the one
To make you understand
Oh, yeah, I'm gonna be your man
Everybody gather round and listen to my song
I've only got one
We who are young, should now take a stand
Don't run from the burdens of women and men
Continue to give, continue to live
For what you know is right
Most of your life can be out of sight
Withdraw from the darkness and look to the light
Where everyone's free
At least that's the way it's supposed to be
We just keep on keeping on
We just keep on keeping on
Many think that we have blown it
But they too will soon admit
That there's still a lot of love among us
And there's still a lot of faith and warmth and trust
When we keep on keeping on
Before we dismiss, one thing I insist
When you have your young, remember this song
And our world surroundings, its leaps and bounds
Ups and downs, is reality
Teach them to be strong, and when they are grown
They can proudly imply that we were an alright guy
For all the wrong now is right
This nation's people are now united as one
And we just keep on keeping on
We just keep on keeping on
Many think that we have blown it
But they too will soon admit
That there's still a lot of love among us
And there's still a lot of faith, warmth, and trust
When we keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on, y'all
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Keep on, keeping on
(Keep on, keeping on)
We got to move on up, y'all
(We got to move on up)
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Some years back I remember
Still in my mind so well
My mama made this ?
And I found it never fails
Never worry too long
(Worry too long)
About what goes on
(About what goes on)
Today it's sorrow
(Today it's sorrow)
Look like joy tomorrow
(Look like joy tomorrow)
Keep on keeping on
(Keep on keeping on)
Keep on, keep on
(Keep on, keep on)
We just keep on keeping on
We just keep on keeping on
Many think that we have blown it
But they too will soon admit
That there's still a lot of love among us
And there's still a lot of faith, warmth, and trust
When we keep on keeping on
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh)
We're gonna move on up
(We're gonna move on up)
Keep on keeping on
(Keep on keeping on)
Move on, move now
(Move on, move now)
Keep on keeping on
(Keep on keeping on)
The Thing I'm tryin' to do
The thing I believe in y'all
It's a struggle every day
But I'm gonna keep on
Keep on keepin' on
Tryin' to make stand
In this world all my life
Never gonna stop fightin' that fight
And at least they can say
When I'm dead and gone
He never gaved up
He keeped on keepin' on
Hey, hey, hey, hey
It's righteous
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
So standard
Hey, hey, hey, hey
It's hard to be different
In this world of clones
But I feel this music
Down in my bown
If the radio don't like it
I can live with that
I got my true fans
And that's a fact
At least they can say
When I'm dead and gone
He never gaved up
He keeped on keepin' on
Hey, hey, hey, hey
It's righteous
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Keep on keepin' on
Hey, hey, hey, hey
So standard
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Keep on keepin' on
Keep on (x4)
It might not mean much right now
But in the end it's the only thing
That matters somehow
So wave your flag
Keep your head up high
Now's your time
To do or die
And if they say no
You say why
Don't let your life
Pass you by
At least they can say
When you're dead and gone
You never gaved up
You keeped on keepin' on
Hey, hey, hey, hey
It's righteous
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Keep on keepin' on
Hey, hey, hey, hey
So standard
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Once I had a good man
Once a good man, he had me
A happy, do right, good man
Made me sing sweet melodies
Happiness woven â€~round me
You know I had to get minds twice
No sorrow will surround me
Once a good man, you know he did me right
Treated me good, made me happy
But then one day he left me
There's something I must confess
When he left I was in a mess
Ooh, let me testify, let me rectify
And explain how he did me wrong
Ooh, he left me all alone
Oh, one day that good man was gone
Oh, he left me all alone
Then I said, is there such thing as true love
Between a woman and a man?
I guess I gotta keep on searchin', yeah
I'ma keep on searchin' â€~til I find that love again, oh
Gotta keep on looking
I'm gonna look high, hey
I'm gonna look low everywhere I go
Gotta keep on looking, yeah, for that true love again
Yeah, let me find that true love again
Break it down, break it down, yeah
Gonna keep on looking for that true love again
Every night my dream's the same
Same old city with a different name
Men are coming to take me away
I don't know why but I know I can't stay
There's a weight that's pressing down
Late at night you can hear the sound
Even the noise you make when you sleep
Can't swim across a river so deep
They know my name 'cause I told it to them
But they don't know where
They don't know when it's coming, when it's coming
There's this fear I keep so deep
Knew its name since before I could speak, yeah, oh
They know my name 'cause I told it to them
But they don't know where
They don't know when it's coming
Oh when it's coming, keep the car running
If some night I don't come home
Please don't think I've left you alone
The same place animals go when they die
You can't climb across a mountain so high
The same city where I go when I sleep
You can't swim across a river so deep
They know my name 'cause I told it to them
But they don't know where
They don't know when it's coming
Oh when is it coming? Keep the car running
Keep the car running, keep the car running

I said, 'Take it easy, baby
I worked all day and my feet feel just like lead
You got my shirt tails
Flyin' all over the place
And the sweat poppin' out of my head'
She said, 'Hey, Bossa nova, baby
KEEP on a workin' child
This ain't no time to quit'
She said, 'Go, Bossa nova, baby
Keep on dancin'
I'm about to have myself a fit'
Bossa nova, Bossa nova
I said, 'Hey little mama,
Let's sit down
Have a drink and dig the band'
She said, 'Drink, drink, drink
Oh, fiddle-de-dink
I can dance with a drink in my hand'
She said 'Hey Bossa nova, baby
Keep on workin' child
This ain't no time to drink'
She said 'Go, Bossa nova, baby
Keep on dancin'
'Cause I ain't got time to think'
I said, 'Come on, baby
It's hot in here
And it's oh so cool outside
If you lend me a dollar
I can buy some gas
And we can go for a little ride'
She said, 'Hey Bossa nova, baby
Keep on workin' child
I ain't got time for that'
She said, 'Go Bossa nova, baby
Keep on dancin'
Or I'll find myself another cat'

And if you quit smoking
Will you just start drinking?
Sober as a stone
My number in your phone
Your mother gets home late
Your father's out of state
You watched too much TV
You KEEP me company
Your brother’s old drum kit
Set up in the basement
I'm waiting for the day
I get to hear you play

I cry myself to sleep each night
Wishing I could hold you tight
Life seems so empty since you went away
And the pillow where you lay your head
Now holds my empty dreams instead
And it KEEPS right on a-hurtin'
Since you're gone
It KEEPS right on a'hurtin every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
And it KEEPS right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
They say a man ain't supposed to cry
But when I see you passing by
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears
The pillow where you lay your head
Now holds my empty dreams instead
And it KEEPS right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
It KEEPS right on a'hurtin every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
And it KEEPS right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
Yes, it KEEPS right on a-hurtin' since you're gone

Gotta do some livin', got the wanderlust
Better clear the highway 'cause I'm gonna move some dust
Oh I got wheels, wheels on my heels
And I gotta KEEP rollin', rolling along
Lots of pretty dollies try to fence me in
But I love 'em and leave 'em 'cause a tumbleweed's my kin
Oh I got wheels, wheels on my heels
And I gotta keep rollin', rolling along
Why do I keep movin', never settlin' down
Can it be I'm looking for a dream I haven't found
Oh I got wheels, wheels on my heels
And I gotta keep rollin', rolling along
Oh I got wheels, wheels on my heels
And I gotta keep rollin', rolling along

In your arms, I can still feel the way you
Want me when you hold me
I can still hear the words you whispered
When you told me
I can stay right here forever in your arms
And there ain't no way
I'm lettin' you go now
And there ain't no way
And there ain't no how
I'll never see that day
'Cause I'm KEEPING you
Forever and for always
We will be together all of our days
Want to wake up every
Morning to your sweet face, always
Mm, baby
In your heart, I can still hear
A beat for every time you kiss me
And when we're apart,
I know how much you miss me
I can feel your love for me in your heart
And there ain't no way
I'm lettin' you go now
And there ain't now way
And there ain't no how
I'll never see that day
'Cause I'm keeping you
Forever and for always
We will be together all of our days
Want to wake up every
Morning to your sweet face, always
In your eyes (I can still see the look of the one)
I can still see the look of the one who really loves me
(I can still feel the way that you want)
The one who wouldn't put anything
Else in the world above me (I can still see love for me)
I can still see love for me in your eyes (I still see the love)
And there ain't no way
I'm lettin' you go now
And there ain't no way
And there ain't no how
I'll never see that day
'Cause I'm keeping you
Forever and for always
We will be together all of our days
Want to wake up every
Morning to your sweet face, always
I'm keeping you
Forever and for always
We will be together all of our days
Want to wake up every
Morning to your sweet face
I'm keeping you forever and for always
I'm keeping you forever
Got to keep you, baby
Forever, in your arms
