Lyrical Response

[DD4Bills]

Don't you feel it growing day by day?
People getting ready for the new
Some are happy, some are sad
Whoa, we gotta let the music play
Mm-hm

 

What the people need is a way to make 'em smile
It ain't so hard to do if you know how
Gotta get a message, get it on through
Oh, now, mama's goin' to after a while

[muppy]

 

Give me what you can tonight
Time is all we have to play
Tell me you can't live without me
Tell me every day by day by day
Nothing lasts forever, only fades away
Day by day

[muppy]

I'm a supermodel and mami, si mami
Amnesty International got Bangkok to Montauk on lock
You love my ass and my abs and the video for promiscuous
My style is ridiculous

If you see us in the club we'll be acting real nice
If you see us on the floor you'll be watchin' all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody (so give it to me give it to me give it to me)
Wanna see you work your body (so give it to me give it to me give it to me)

[muppy]

I've gone to buy a ticket now, as far as I can
Ain't a-never coming back
Ride me a southbound, all the way to Georgia now
'Til the train, it run out of track

 

Can't you see, oh, can't you see
What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me?
Can't you see, can't you see
What that woman, she' been doin' to me?
Oh, dear Lord

[Roundybout]

This morning I woke up, woke up, I woke up this morning
Yes, poor Lightin' sure was please
Woah, I woke up this morning
Yes, poor Lightin' sure was please
Woah, I heard somebody callin'
That were my little girl callin' me

She called kind of lonesome, she said
She said "Lightin', oh Lightnin'
Darlin', do you know something keeps on worrying me
Woah, lord have mercy
Yes, something keeps on worryin' me
Woah, I know just around here somewhere
But I'm bothered wondering where can you be"
And I broke down, and I cried a little while I say

[muppy]

Though you think
That my heart is cold, girl
You can't see
The tears that blow deep
Inside me

Each day I cry a little
Each night I die just a little
Each day I cry a little
Each night I die just a little

[muppy]

Can't you see (I'm gonna take a freight train), can't you see (I'm down at the station, Lord)
What that woman, she been doin' to me (ain't never comin' back, oh boy)
Can't you see (gonna ride me a southbound, now)
Can't you see (all the way to Georgia, Lord)
What that woman, she been doin' to me? ('Til the train run out of track, oh)

Sweet Jamaican pipe dreams
Golden Acapulco nights
Then Morocco, and the East
Fly by morning light

 

We're on the train to Bangkok
Aboard the Thailand Express
We'll hit the stops along the way
We only stop for the best

[muppy]

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep
There's no way out
This time I have really lead myself astray

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Everybody's trembling and running around
Picking up their money, tearing the tepee down
Foreman wants a penny about to go insane
Trying to get the workers out the way of the train
Engineer blowing the whistle loud and long
Can't stop the train, gotta let it roll on

[muppy]

Hell-bound train, I been so wrong
Too late now, I'm moving on
Conductor standing, watch in his hand
Got to get aboard, take you to his land

He's leaving (leaving)
On that midnight train to Georgia (leaving on a midnight train)
Hmm, yeah
Said he's going back (going back to find)
To a simpler place and time (and when he takes that ride)
Oh yes, he is (guess who's gonna sit right by his side)

[DD4Bills]

That's the night that the lights went out in Georgia
That's the night that they hung an innocent man
Well, don't trust your soul to no backwoods Southern lawyer
'Cause the judge in the town's got bloodstains on his hands

[muppy]

I said Georgia
Georgia
A song of you (a song of you)
Comes as sweet and clear
As moonlight through the pines

[Bill from NYC]

If you ever feel sorrow
For things you might have done
With no hope for tomorrow
In the setting of the sun

 

And the ocean is howling
Of things that might have been
That last good morning sunrise
Will be the brightest you've ever seen

 

In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight, midnight moonlight
In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight, midnight moonlight

It was long after midnight
When we got to unconditional love
She said "sure my heart is boundless but don't push my limits too far"
I said "if love is so transcendent, I don't understand these boundaries"
She said "just don't disappoint me, you know how complex women are"

 

I'll be around
If you don't let me down too far
I'll be around
If you don't let me down

[muppy]

After midnight, we're going to let it all hang down
After midnight, we're going to chug-a-lug and shout
We're going to stimulate some action
We're going to get some satisfaction
We're going to find out what it is all about
After midnight, we're going to let it all hang down
