Well, I’m black and blue From kickin’ myself For givin’ you up to somebody else Just treatin’ you human is all I had to do I got corns walkin’ the floor My shoes are all worn And the carpets half torn I’m kickin’ myself ‘Til I’m black and blue Child, I’d be so happy If you come back again I’ve been getting slappy From all this punishment Well, I’m runnin’…
What a beautiful noise Comin’ up from the street; It’s got a beautiful sound, It’s got a beautiful beat. It’s a beautiful noise Going on everywhere, Like the clickety clack Of a train on a track It’s got rhythm to spare. It’s a beautiful noise And it’s a sound that I love, And it fits me as well As a hand in a glove, Yes it does, Yes it does….
I never needed to hear the truth; you never wanted to know. I never wanted to be unkind, but then someone kept telling me go, There was something kept telling me go. We stayed together like birds in a cage, but then one of us had to get free. But who had the heart to say goodbye wasn’t you, so it had to be me, Wasn’t you so it had…
Lost on a painted sky where the clouds are hung for the poet’s eye you may find him if you may find him There on a distant shore by the wings of dreams through an open door you may know him if you may Be as a page that aches for a word which speaks on a theme that is timeless while the sun god will make for your day…
Oh yeah. I never knew the sun could feel so good. And for a while, I thought it never would. Then I got home and finally understood. It’s good to be back in L.A. again. Good to be back on my own ground. It’s good to be back in L.A. again. Good to be back in my home town. Oh yeah. I’ve traveled down the streets of Amsterdam. Sung to…
Hey see how she kiss me, Yeah no reason for the girl to lie She say she gonna miss me, Yeah smile on my face, I wave goodbye. But I’ve been back from Baltimore for a week or two I hurried back from Baltimore Baby, where are you Where are you. Yeah I’m about to crumble, Yeah come see me die before your eyes Yeah my thoughts all jumbled, And…
Hey, if you ever want to get away a while I got something you want to know Sometime when your world is on fire You got to pack your bags and then go Hey, don’t you know you don’t belong here Why don’t you come along with me I’m gonna take you right out of the picture Put you right into a brand new scene Open road ahead is all…
Movie show, where almost anything can happen Movie time, anything you can imagine C’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon let’s go You got to see it to believe it I hear that Hollywood’s a very tough scene Where else does someone eat their co-star on screen? Hey if you ever want to get away quick There’s nothing quicker than the movies The guilty pleasure of a shoot-em-up flick Enjoyed at leisure at…
Do run day, do day day run do Do run day, do day day run do Do run, do day day run do day At night On some dark quiet street Baby, that’s where we meet when day is through They say That our love isn’t right So I wait for each night to be with you Till they realize our love’s not some passing phase We’ll just meet at…
It was more than a matter of knowing All the words that were finally said. It was more than the coming or going Of the things that remain in your head. It was more than a matter of wanting Or needing The foolish games we played. As if I ever cared to make you cry. Could’ve been right; You know that it was, And yet you knew I was sorry…
