there with the love I'll see you through. Now when you're lost and
about to give up'cause your best just ain't good enough and you

Now for ten years we've been on our own and moss grows fat on a
rollin stone but that's not how it used to be, when the jester sang
for the king and queen in a coat he borrowed from James Dean and a
voice that came from you and me, oh and while the king was looking
down, the jester stole his thorny crown the courtroom was
adjourned, no verdict was returned, and while Lenin read a book on
Marx, the quartet practiced in the park and we sang dirges in the
dark, the day, the music, died. We were singin... |

She's got a competition clutch with the four on the floor. And she
purrs like a kitten till the lake pipes roar. And if that aint
enough to make you flip your lid. There's one more thing, I got the
pink slip, Daddy. And comin' off the line when the light turns
green. Well she blows 'em outta the water like you never seen. I
get pushed out of shape and it's hard to steer. When I get rubber
in all four gears
|

Now if I appear to be carefree. It's only to camouflage my
sadness. And honey to shield my pride I try. To cover this hurt
with a show of gladness. But don't let my show convince you That
I've been happy since you. Decided to go, oh I need you so. I'm
hurt and I want you to know. But for others I put on a show, ooh
yeah
|
G
But when I get home to you I'll find the things that you do Will
make me feel alright. You know I work all day to get you money to
buy you things And it's worth it just to hear you say you're going
to give me everything.So why on earth should I moan,'cause when I
get you alone You know I feel ok
|
H
It’s hard to understand but the touch of your hand Can start me
crying.I thought that I was over you but it’s true, so true.I love
you even more than I did before but darling what can I do-o-o-o For
you don’t love me and I’ll always be

What do you think you'll do then. I bet that'll shoot down your
plane. It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics. To set you on
your feet again Maybe you'll get a replacement. There's plenty like
me to be found. Mongrels who ain't got a penny. Sniffing for
tidbits like you on the ground
|
K
I can't blame you for tryin'. I'm tryin' to make it too. I've got
one little hang up baby. I just can't make it without you So tell
me, are you gonna stay now. Will you stand by me girl all the way
now. With you by my side. They can't keep us down. Together we can
make it baby

The street was deserted late Friday night, we were buggin' each
other while we sat at the light. We both popped the clutch when the
light turned green. You should'a heard the whine from my screamin'
machine. I flew past LaBrea, Schwabs, and Crescent Heights, and all
the Jag could see were my six tailights.He past me at Doheny then I
started to swerve.But I pulled her out and there we were
at, |
M
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle When the sun's
comin' up I got cakes on the griddle. Life ain't nothin' but a
funny, funny riddle

like an ace now (you walk like an ace now you walk like an ace) She
makes the Indy 500 look like a roman chariot race now (you look

But she leads them on a wild goose chase now (you drive like an ace
now you drive like an ace)

Theres a long-haired girl who waits, I know To ease my troubled
mind, yeah oh my lady, yeah oh my lady, yeah In the shelter of her
arms everythings OK When she talks then the world goes slippin
away
|
U
Yeah, I know it’s kind of strange But every time I’m near you I
just run out of things to say I know you’d understand ’cause every
time I tried to tell you The words just came out wrong So I’ll have
to say
|

Searchin' her eyes, lookin' for traces Of what I'm dreamin' of
Hoping to find a friend and a lover I'll bless the day I discover,
You

Late at night a big old house gets lonely I guess ev'ry form of
refuge has its price And it breaks her heart to think her love is
Only given to a man with hands as cold as ice So she tells him she
must go out for the evening To comfort an old friend who's feelin'
down But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin' She is headed
for the cheatin' side of town

They crossed the Yukon River and found the bonanza gold. Below that
old white mountain just a little south-east of Nome. Sam crossed
the majestic mountains to the valleys far below. He talked to his
team of huskies as he mushed on through the snow. With the northern
lights a-running wild in the land of the midnight sun, Yes, Sam
McCord was a mighty man in the year of nineteen-one

And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light, that shines
on me, shine until tomorrow, let it be. I wake up to the sound of
music, mother Mary comes to me, speaking words of wisdom, |

Silently for me. Ev'ry day's an endless stream Of cigarettes and
magazines.
And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories
And ev'ry stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to
be, |
BB
Well, the preacher and the teacher Lord, they’re a caution They are
the talk of the town When the gossip gets to flyin’And they ain’t
lyin’ When the sun goes fallin’ down |
