Don't you feel ashamed at all the bitterness you keep inside
Does your ego save your face "I had a go - I really tried"
Now you know your leaders lied
Does it stop you acting snide
Or are you still a boy that cried
Tears now surely long since dried.
Cry if you want, cry if you want

Think of London, a small city
It's dark, dark in the daytime
The people sleep, sleep in the daytime
If they want to, if they want to
I'm checking them out
I'm checking them out
I got it figured out
I got it figured out
There's good points and bad points
Find a city
Find myself a city to live in.

When the sun comes up on a sleepy little town
Down around San Antone
And the folks are risin for another day
Round about their homes

 

The people of the town are strange
And they're proud of where they came
Well, you're talkin bout china grove
Oh, china grove

TIME OUT!

 

This is an awesome ***** thread.

 

GAME ON!

Another pause. There's so many songs in here that I grew up listening to, and never paid much attention to the lyrics. This thread is making me appreciate how great some of them actually are.

Never realized how many songs I may have been a little off on the Lyrics (wording) and misinterpreted what the writer was trying to convey.

 

Great thread OP, thanks

Lord oh, yeah
When you need a friend through thick and thin
Don't look to those above you
When you're down and out, ain't no doubt
Nobody wants you
But you're rock candy baby
Hard, sweet and sticky, yes
Rock candy baby
Hard, sweet and sticky

Come on, come on, come on, come on
Now touch me, baby
Can't you see that I am not afraid?
What was that promise that you made?
Why won't you tell me what she said?
What was that promise that you made?

Now, I'm gonna love you
Till the heavens stop the rain
I'm gonna love you
Till the stars fall from the sky for you and I

I don't care if you never come home
I don't mind if you just keep on rowin' away on a distant sea
'Cause I don't love you and you don't love me

 

You cause a commotion when you come to town
You give 'em a smile and they melt
And your lovers and friends is all good and fine
But I don't like yours and you don't like mine

If you see something that looks like a star
And it's shooting up out of the ground
And your head is spinning from a loud guitar
And you just can't escape from the sound
Don't worry too much, it'll happen to you

I'm not the devil you think that I am
It ain't no excuse but I'm just a man .
I slipped and I fell it got out of hand

but I'm not the devil you think that I am.

 

With no gun held to my head, I got caught up believing in lies that were said.
And in a moment of weakness I stumbled and I made my bed.

Boy you sure took me for one big ride
Even now I sit and wonder why
And when I think of you I start to cry
I just can't waste my time, I must keep dry
Gotta stop believin' in all your lies
'Cause there's too much to do before I die
 
You feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good myself

t's another lonely evening
And another lonely town
But I ain't too young to worry
And I ain't too old to cry
When a woman gets me down
Got another empty bottle
And another empty bed
Ain't too young to admit it
And I'm not too old to lie
I'm just another empty head

 

That's why I'm lonely
I'm so lonely
But I know what I'm gonna do

 

I'm gonna ride on
Ride on
Ride on, standing on the edge of the road
Ride on, thumb in the air
Ride on, one of these days I'm gonna
Ride on, change my evil ways
Till then I'll just keep dragging on

Tonight, I'm gonna have myself a real good time
I feel alive and the world I'll turn it inside out, yeah
And floating around in ecstasy

So don't stop me now don't stop me
'Cause I'm having a good time, having a good time
I'm a shooting star, leaping through the sky
Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car, passing by like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go, go, go
There's no stopping me

My love's bigger than a Cadillac
I try to show you but you drive me back
Your love for me has got to be real
You're gonna know just how I feel
Love is real, not fade away

Well now you say you've found another man 
Who does things to you that I can't
And that no matter what I do it's all over now
Between me and you girl
But I can't believe what you say
No I can't believe what you say
'Cause baby

 

I don't want to fade away
Oh I don't want to fade away
Tell me what can I do what can I say
'Cause darlin' I don't want to fade away

Life, it seems, will fade away
Drifting further, every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters, no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free

Set me free why don't ya babe?
Get out my life why don't ya babe?
You don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on.
You don't really need me
You just keep me hangin' on.

Please release me, let me go,
For I don't love you anymore.
To live a lie would be a sin.
Release me and let me love again.
 
I have found a new love, dear.
And I will always want her near.
Her lips are warm where yours are cold.
Release me, darling, let me go.

I'm standing at the altar
As they play the wedding march
I'm in a black tuxedo with my collar full of starch
She looks as lovely as she's ever gonna get
I wake up from this nightmare in a pool of sweat

 

Oh no, please not that again
Love rears up its ugly head

If you really really really really love me
Then you really really really gotta show me
Don't whine when I put it in your booty
Or if I'm up all night playing 'Call of Duty'
Never hassle me because I'm unemployed
If I sleep all day don't get annoyed
Then I'll know that you really really really really really really really love me
If you really really love me
 
If you really truly want to make me feel nice
Make it so I don't ever have to ask twice
Let me have the keys to your Mercedes
Don't get mad when I bring home some ladies
If I get fat and look like an egg
Lie to me, tell me I'm in great shape
Then I'll know that you really really really
Really really really love me

Let me run with you tonight
I'll take you on a moonlight ride
There's someone I used to see
But she don't give a damn for me

 

But let me get to the point, let's roll another joint
And turn the radio loud, I'm too alone to be proud
You don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels to be me

I like to dream yes, yes, right between my sound machine

On a cloud of sound I drift in the night

Any place it goes right

Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine
What did you dream?
It's alright we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
He played a mean guitar
He always ate in the Steak Bar
He loved to drive in his Jaguar
So welcome to the machine

Days of barefoot freedom racing with the waves
Nights of starlit secrets, crackling driftwood flames
Drinking by the lighthouse, smoking on the pier
Still we saw the magic was fading every year

Well the D.A. was pumping my left hand
And a she a holding my right
And I told her don't get scared
Cause you're gonna be spared
I gotta be forgiven
If I want to spend my living with
A long cool woman in a black dress
Just a five nine
Beautiful
Tall
With just one look I was a bad mess
'Cause that long cool woman had it all

I've told you once, I've told you twice
We go together like fried beans and rice

 

'Cause you're a big legged woman
With a short, short miniskirt
Promise me darlin'
You'll never make me feel like dirt

Didn't take too long 'fore I found out
What people mean by down and out
Spent my money, took my car
Started tellin' her friends she gon' be a star
I don't know but I been told
A big legged woman ain't got no soul
