I've been to Hollywood I've been to Redwood I crossed the ocean For a heart of gold I've been in my mind It's such a fine line That keeps me searching For a heart of gold And I'm getting old Keeps me searching For a heart of gold And I'm getting old

Selfish love yeah we're both alone The ride before the fall, yeah But I'm gonna take this heart of stone I just got to have it all I've seen your face a hundred times Everyday we've been apart And I don't care about the sunshine, yeah 'Cause mama, mama, I'm coming home I'm coming home

Shoot to thrill, play to kill Too many women with too many pills, said Shoot to thrill, play to kill I got my gun at the ready, gonna fire at will 'Cause I shoot to thrill, and I'm ready to kill I can't get enough and I can't get my fill I shoot to thrill, play to kill

Put your head on my shoulder Whisper in my ear, baby Words I want to hear, tell me Tell me that you love me too

Don't you try and pretend It's my feeling we'll win in the end I won't harm you or touch your defenses Vanity and security, ah Don't you forget about me I'll be alone, dancing, you know it, baby Going to take you apart I'll put us back together at heart, baby

If you believe in forever Then life is just a one-night stand If there's a rock n' roll heaven Well you know they've got a hell of a band, band, band

The Eastern world, it is explodin' Violence flarin', bullets loadin' You're old enough to kill but not for votin' You don't believe in war, but what's that gun you're totin'? And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin' But you tell me Over and over and over again, my friend How you don't believe We're on the eve of destruction

I was set to retire in June 2020 from OCM BOCES which supplies and supports the computer systems used by 52 school districts around Syracuse and Central NY. When the shutdown hit we had to schedule a time to come into the office and collect our computers so we could start working from home. The systems had to be modified to support remote learning, and thousands of iPads had to be sent out to schools to distribute to students. We quickly learned what a Zoom meeting was. Since I was home and had nowhere to go anyways, I delayed my retirement until 2021 when we were back in the office.

Free as a bird It's the next best thing to be Free as a bird Home, home and dry Like a homing bird, I fly As a bird on wings

Playin' with the Queen of Hearts Knowin' it ain't really smart The Joker ain't the only fool Who'll do anythin' for you Layin' out another lie Thinkin' 'bout a life of crime 'Cause that's what I'll have to do To keep me away from you

All the waiters in your grand café Leave their tables when you blink, ohh Every dog must have his everyday Every drunk must have his drink Don't wait for answers Just take your chances Don't ask me why

My name is Luka I live on the second floor I live upstairs from you Yes, I think you've seen me before If you hear something late at night Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight Just don't ask me what it was Just don't ask me what it was Just don't ask me what it was

Cover me with kisses, baby Cover me with love Roll me in designer sheets I'll never get enough Emotions come, I don't know why Cover up love's alibi Call me (call me) on the line Call me, call me any, anytime Call me (call me) I'll arrive When you're ready, we can share the wine Call me

Go ahead and hate your neighbor Go ahead and cheat a friend Do it in the name of heaven You can justify it in the end There won't be any trumpets blowing Come the judgment day On the bloody morning after One tin soldier rides away

Baby, can you understand me now? Sometimes I get a little mad Don't you know, no one alive can always be an angel When things go wrong, I seem to go bad I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

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

I came for you, for you, I came for you But you did not need my urgency I came for you, for you, I came for you But your life was one long emergency And your cloud line urges me And my electric surges free

I’d be leery of sitting on those old seats, let alone eat off of them. They’re filled with over a decade of tears, dropped condiments, and beer farts.

You could be my silver spring Blue-green colors flashin' I would be your only dream Your shinin' autumn ocean crashin' Don't say that she's pretty And did you say that she loved you? Baby, I don't want to know

That’s how I felt. And it was the corner store where everyone in the neighborhood went. 🫣

Some girls give me money, some girls buy me clothes Some girls give me jewelry, that I never thought I'd own Some girls give me diamonds, some girls, heart attacks Some girls I give all my bread to, I don't ever want it back

Or they could be buying it for someone else. My mother made me go to the store for my sister when it was needed right away.

I love you baby like a flower loves the spring And I love you baby like a robin loves to sing And I love you baby like a schoolboy loves his pie And I love you baby, river deep, mountain high Baby, baby, baby, oh, baby oh oh Do I love you, my oh my Yeah, river deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah If I lost you, would I cry Oh, how I love you baby. Baby, baby, baby.

Summertime, and the livin' is easy Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high Oh, your daddy's rich and your ma is good-lookin' So hush little baby, don't you cry
