Bob Seger | Little Victories | /b/bob+seger/little+victories_20021993.html | When your baby up and leaves you
Up and leaves you flat
Don't you laugh my friend sometimes it happens just like that
First you feel the anger then the sorrow will soon take control
And there'll be hard times for sure
Long cold lonely nights
It might not sound like much
But it'll mean a lot you'll see
Every hour you survive will come to be
A little victory
Little victory
As you struggle through each day
Each strange new day
Feelin' lost and wounded tryin' hard to find your way
No one there to talk it out with
Learnin' how to sleep alone
Overcomin' each new doubt
Tryin' hard just to accept it all
Everytime you keep control when you're cut off at the knees
Everytime you take a punch and still stand at ease
Little victories
Little victories
And when night falls and there's no one around
The cruelest time of all and not one sound
Listenin' to the wind blow
Listenin' to the tickin' of the clock
Tryin' hard to forget
Tryin' hard to just accept it all
As you step out in the night take a lesson from the trees
Watch the way they learn to bend with each breeze
Little victories
Everytime you make it through
It's another little victory
Day by day minute by minute
Little victories

Bob Seger | Momma | /b/bob+seger/momma_20021916.html | I was the baby brother,
I was the quiet other,
And I remember mother so well.
I was the little stranger,
I never was in danger,
I could 'a had a manger, pray tell.
Oh, how she could control me,
When I was bad she'd scold me,
Sometimes she wouldn't hold me,
And I'd cry.
But momma she never told me a lie -
Momma she never told me a lie.
I used to stay out evenings,
Stay out too late some evenings,
And momma would be there seething,
Back home.
Momma, she sat and waited,
Sat in the hall and waited,
Now I know why she hated
That phone.
And when I'd come in she'd grab me,
Right by the arm she'd grab me,
Lord, when she was finished with me,
I'd cry ... Oh, I'd cry.
But momma she never told me a lie.
Momma she never told me a lie.
Momma she could control me,
And when I was bad she'd scold me,
Sometimes she wouldn't hold me,
And I'd cry.
Momma she never told me a lie.
Momma she never promised me the sky.
Momma she never told me a lie.

Bob Seger | No Matter Who You Are | /b/bob+seger/no+matter+who+you+are_20593947.html | No matter who you are no matter what you do
There's gonna be someone wants something else from you
Yeah
This is an ancient test, it's a shiny lie
Discover somethin' pure then sit and watch it die
Yeah
No matter who you are no matter where you've been
No matter what you've done you'll have to start again
No matter who you are
Between the soaring dreams and the bottom line
So much is given up so much is left behind
Yeah
This is the price you pay, this is the beast you feed
When you abandon hope and you give in to greed
No matter who you are no matter who you've been
You'll have to sort it out and start again
No matter who you are
No matter who you are
Don't take this wrong don't let it bring you down
It's just the way things work in this great big town

Bob Seger | Paint Them A Picture | /b/bob+seger/paint+them+a+picture_20728694.html | Paint them a picture Jane
And you can hang it on the wall
Tell them it's me they see
Don't tell them why I'm small
If they ask you why I'm crying
Just tell them someone is dying
And that he was just a friend
Don't let em see that you pretend
Paint them a picture Jane
Put it in a frame
One with lots of colors
Sign it with your name
Sign your name
Sign your name
Paint them a picture Jane
Like the one you painted for me
Tell them that I'm in love
But don't tell them they will see
If they ask you why I'm crying
Just tell them someone is dying
And that he was just a friend
Don't let em see that you pretend
Paint them a picture Jane
Put it in a frame
One with lots of colors
Sign it with your name
Sign your name
Sign your name

Bob Seger | Railroad Days | /b/bob+seger/railroad+days_20306437.html | Jan would climb up so high on the foul screen
Down below I would yell to watch out
When we'd play ? was always the winner
He was brave never listened to me shout
Afternoons playin' ball by the old wall
Hidin' out and of course be the star
Kept my records in old looseleaf notebooks
And today I think I still know where they are
Oh, Railroad days
Railroad days
Railroad days
When I was young, in my prime
On my way
When the rain never got in my way
Oh in my younger railroad days
Some nights, Drifters playin' on the hi-fi
Talkin' 'bout girls, or preposterous lies
Laughin hard, watchin' Soupy at eleven
Skonkin' down, one of Mom's lemon pies
Ten o'clock, bringin' groceries from the market
Singin songs, to the darkness of the night
Even sang the parts the instruments were playing
Life was freer, dreams were really quite all right
Oh, Railroad days
Railroad days
Railroad days
When the sun seemed to smile on it's way
When the darkness was easier to play yeah
Oh in my younger railroad days
Yesterday, I heard they shut the trains down
The ones than ran, by the field where I would play
Said the folks want new and faster transportation
It's just like me, I'll be obsolete one day
Oh, Railroad days
Railroad days
Railroad days
When I was young, in my prime
On my way
When the rain never got in my way
Oh in my younger railroad days

Bob Seger | Ramblin' Gamblin' Man | /b/bob+seger/ramblin+gamblin+man_20306743.html | Yeah, gonna tell my tale
Come on,
Come on.
Give a listen,
Cause I was born lonely
Down by the riverside.
Learned to spin fortune wheel
And throw dice.
And I was just thirteen
When I had to leave home.
Knew I couldn't stick around,
Had to roam.
I ain't good lookin',
But you know I ain't shy.
Ain't afraid to look a girl
In the eye.
So if you need some lovin'
And you need it right away,
Just take a little time out
And maybe I'll stay.
Then I got to ramble,
Ramblin' man.
Lord I got to gamble,
Gamblin' man.
Ahh I got to ramble,
Ramblin' man.
And I was born a ramblin' gamblin' man.
I hope you got money,
Sho gonna need some.
Ain't gonna run on lovin'
And I got to run.
I got to keep movin',
Never gonna slow down.
You can have your funky world,
See ya 'round.
I got to ramble,
Ramblin' man.
Yeah I got to gamble,
Gamblin' man.
Ahh I got to ramble,
Ramblin' man.
I was born a ramblin' gamblin' man.

Bob Seger | Real At The Time | /b/bob+seger/real+at+the+time_20022002.html | I still remember how I fell for you
There wasn't one thing I would not do
I still recall the love in your eyes
Blue like the sky on a clear sunrise
And it was Real At The Time
Real At The Time
I was yours you were mine
It was Real At The Time
You were a lioness tall and lean
You were the best thing I'd ever seen
I heard a loneliness in your voice
I charged ahead I had no choice
Cause it felt Real At The Time
Real At The Time
Like a mountain you climb
It felt Real At The Time
And babe you meant so much to me
I never will forget your face
I never will forget those nights
Those nights
Those nights
Lost in the pettiness and the fights
Lost in the battle for bragging rights
We were a couple of kindred souls
Fighting for childish things like control
But it was Real At The Time
Real At The Time
Like the scene of a crime
It was Real At The Time
It was Real At The Time
I was yours you were mine
We got way out of line
But it was Real At The Time

Bob Seger | Real Love | /b/bob+seger/real+love_20022003.html | Words and music by bob seger
I think I've found the real love
Genuine and true
I think it's really come my way today babe
I think it's really you
I remember moments looking in your eyes
Could have sworn I saw the spark of love babe
Flickering inside
I've been around this track
And the only thing I lack
Is the real love
Every time I see you, every time we touch
I can feel the way you feel for me babe
And it means so much
And every time you look at me
It's just the way it all should be
In the real love
Oh darlin' darlin' darlin'
Stay with me stay
I long to see you in the morning sun
Everyday everyday
So until that moment
When I take your hand
I'm gonna try to do my very best babe
To prove that I'm your man
I'm gonna do my very best
I'm not gonna rest
Until we've got the real love
Real love
Until we've got the real love

Bob Seger | Real Mean Bottle | /b/bob+seger/real+mean+bottle_20593945.html | No man ever sounded so lonesome
No man ever made you feel such pain
Lord, it must have been a real mean bottle
That made you sing that way
The stories you told about prison
'Bout a young man gone astray
Lord, it must have been a real mean bottle
That made you write the songs that way
A real mean bottle poured straight from the devil
It's a miracle you're standin' here today
A real mean bottle made you such a rebel
It must have been a real mean bottle made you sing that way
You spent most all your life with strangers
With a ramblin' fever in your veins
Hag, it must have been a real mean bottle
That made you write the songs that way, oh, yeah
A real mean bottle poured straight from the devil
It's a miracle we're standin' here today
A real mean bottle made you such a rebel
It must have been a real mean bottle made you sing that way
Must have been a real mean bottle made you sing that way
It must have been a real mean bottle made you sing that way

Bob Seger | Revisionism Street | /b/bob+seger/revisionism+street_20021943.html | I saw them standing on a corner
Bathed in ordinary light
They turned away and started walkin'
And faded off into the night
Some years ago they were in fashion
Tonight they couldn't get a seat
They've got themselves a brand new history
From Revisionism Street
Written on Revisionism Street
The years of sacrifice and struggle
The arc of stardom's natural course
The inevitable decline
The wolves waiting at the door
"Let's dig up something really nasty"
"Let's get some clay around their feet"
"No ones memory is sacred 'round here
On Revisionism Street"
"We'll never be in the arena"
"Hey, we'll never have to compete"
"We'll never write a classic novel"
"And we'll never have to be discreet!"
Alfred Hitchcock, Isaac Newton
Elvis Presley, Captain Bligh
They're heroic or pathetic
Depending on which book you buy
Charles Dickens, Jackie Gleason
Burn 'em all, turn up the heat
If there's no truth, use innuendo
This is Revisionism Street
"Let's find ourselves some old acquaintance"
"Let's see what they have to say"
"Some disgruntled ex-employee"
"Presto! Payday!"
A tree falls in the forest
A million copies go to print
Some parasitic little feeder
Sits back and makes a mint
Somewhere a baby's softly sleeping
Lt's innocence complete
Unaware they're workin' late tonight
On Revisionism Street

Bob Seger | Rite Of Passage | /b/bob+seger/rite+of+passage_20021944.html | It's the age of reason for the anarchist
It's a change of venue for the lobbyist
It's a dream of justice buried in the grist
It's a secret briefing based on need to know
It's a condescending rationale from command control
Feel the sense of wonder at the overthrow
It's a rite of passage through a hurricane
Through a rolling thunder through a screaming rain
Hear the shriek of Abel hear the cry of Cain
And Abraham will take his son
Five billion years from now the cruelty will be done
Make a destination
Of the greater truth
Make 'em hang their heads and eat their words
When you find the proof
This is all you're given
It's your only move
It's a rite of passage for the everyman
To a higher ground
To a brighter light
To a promised land
You can feel the power
Of the master's hand
It's a rite of passage

Bob Seger | Simplicity | /b/bob+seger/simplicity_20593944.html | Simplicity it works for me
It keeps me runnin' hard, and sharp and true
I focus on the basic stuff
And pretty soon I'm comin up on you
So much clutter clouds our way
Fundamentals win the day
I break you down size you up
I see a path and then I bust a move
Before you know we'll hit you babe
I finish and I'm on to somethin' new
Complex theories have their place
I like throwdowns in your face
Its clear, when it's really really near
And its everything you need
Rise and be worthy of the prize
Get exactly what you need
Simplicity in everything
In every single thing you say and do
Don't get lost, in foggy stuff
Stay on track and let it come to you
Keep your focus on your goal
Use that iron hard control
Use your power and your speed
Get exactly what you need

Bob Seger | The Aftermath | /b/bob+seger/the+aftermath_20021952.html | Dressed up to the nines
Dancin' three-quarter time
The champagne is on ice
No one's gonna guess
In your brand new dress
Girl, you sure look nice
Have a good time
Honey, don't look back
Stone in the middle of the aftermath
Don't wink, don't blink
Don't let 'em think
His leavin's got you down
Stand straight, hang tough
When they bring it up
Baby hold your ground
If they pry, don't sigh
Pass it off with a laugh
It's all part of living through the aftermath
You can do it honey
Keep that smile so sunny
You can show them what they want to see
Yes, you can
It's a cold, hard scene
The singles thing
Losers everywhere
And it hurts to the bone
Headin' home alone
When someone used to be there
So you take a few falls
And you learn to bounce back
It's all part of living through the aftermath
Living through the aftermath
Baby, don't look back
It's the aftermath

Bob Seger | The Famous Final Scene | /b/bob+seger/famous+final+scene_20021982.html | Words and music by bob seger
Think in terms of bridges burned
Think of seasons that must end
See the rivers rise and fall
They will rise and fall again
Everything must have an end
Like an ocean to a shore
Like a river to a stream
Like a river to a stream
It's the famous final scene
And how you tried to make it work
Did you really think it could
How you tried to make it last
Did you really think it would
Like a guest who stayed too long
Now it's finally time to leave
Yes, it's finally time to leave
Take it calmly and serene
It's the famous final scene
It's been coming on so long
You were just the last to know
It's been a long time since you've smiled
Seems like oh so long ago
Now the stage has all been set
And the nights are growing cold
Soon the winter will be here
And there's no one warm to hold
Now the lines have all been read
And you knew them all by heart
Now you move toward the door
Here it comes the hardest part
Try the handle of the road
Feeling different feeling strange
This can never be arranged
As the light fades from the screen
From the famous final scene
|
Bob Seger | The Last Song | /b/bob+seger/the+last+song_20703671.html | Don't you know it doesn't matter
Who you are or what you'd really like to be
Cause it's all without your mind
And you weren't born blind
And you don't have to see
Just keep it in your heart
And if it takes you far
It's a start man
It's a start
Women were sent from heaven above
And love needs to be loved
Needs to be loved
Love needs to be loved
Love needs to be loved
Love needs to be loved
Love needs to be loved
|
Bob Seger | The Long Goodbye | /b/bob+seger/the+long+goodbye_20593941.html | The silent fall of evening snow
Another thing you can't control
Does it chill or warm you soul tonight
You've become a mystery
Will I earn your honesty
I'll never know if we agree
If you're not here
And we travel separate roads
And we carry different loads
And in the end we stay or go
The long goodbye continues on
Through fog and rain and far beyond
You stay awhile and then you're gone again
I look into your restless eyes
You turn away it's no surprise
I wonder if it's even wise but I'm still here

Bob Seger | The Ring | /b/bob+seger/the+ring_20021953.html | By the light of the moon
To a 50's tune
He pledged his love to her
A girl so rare
A girl so fair
The girl for him for sure
He could see himself getting up every mornin'
For the rest of his life
Just to look in those eyes so blue
It was all he ever wanted to do
She was all he'd ever need to see him through
They were still in their teens
When he gave her the ring
They were married late one May
And they moved into a little house
On the far end of town
Out by the big highway
And all through the days
And all through the nights
The cars and trucks rolled on by
And he slept through it all just fine
Every night he slept just fine
Sometimes she'd stare at the stars out the window
Sometimes she'd walk 'neath the moon
Sometimes she'd sit there just watching him sleeping
Hoping the dawn would come soon
She'd done well in school
She'd followed the rules
And she'd always stood out from the rest
She'd go off to college
And work her way through
Then move to some city out west
She had it all planned
She'd have her career
She'd have all of the things that she'd always lacked
She'd wake up one morning all packed
And leave here and never look back
Most of her friends thought it soon would be over
Not many thought it would last
Most seemed to think they were all wrong for each other
And soon it would pass - soon it would pass
Now twenty years have gone
And her kids have moved on
And she's still on the far end of town
Her youngest - she's livin' somewhere in L. A.
And her oldest - he works on a nearby farm
Her husband comes home
And they talk over supper
He's usually the first to turn in
Another day comes to an end
Another day just ends
And sometimes in the wee hours when the traffic dies down
She'll hear the sound of some bird on the wing
And she'll look out the window and she'll look at his picture
But not at the ring - not at the ring
She never looks at the ring

Bob Seger | Turn On Your Love Light | /b/bob+seger/turn+on+your+love+light_20327340.html | Without a warning you took my heart,
You took it darling, tore it apart
You left me sittin in the dark, cryin'
Said your love for me was dyin'
I don't believe it, I think you outta turn it up
Turn on your love light

just a little bit
I get a little lonely
In the middle of the night
I need your lovin'
Make it all right
I need your love girl
Or else I ain't all right
I need your lovin'
Or else I ain't all right
Bring it to me now
Bring it to me now
Bring it home darlin'
An turn it on up now
Just a little bit
A little bit
Turn it up a bit

Bob Seger | Turn The Page | /b/bob+seger/turn+the+page_20021931.html | On a long and lonesome highway
East of Omaha
You can listen to the engine
Moanin' out his one note song
You can think about the woman
Or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering
The way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours
And there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin',
You just wish the trip was through
Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
Well you walk into a restaurant,
Strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you
As you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you
But you just want to explode
Most times you can't hear 'em talk,
Other times you can
All the same old cliches,
"Is that a woman or a man?"
And you always seem outnumbered,
You don't dare make a stand
Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
Out there in the spotlight
You're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy
You try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body
Like the music that you play
Later in the evening
As you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers
Ringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette,
Rememberin' what she said
Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
There I go
There I go

Bob Seger | U.M.C. | /b/bob+seger/umc_20252093.html | I wanna be a lawyer
Doctor or professor
A member of the umc
I want an air conditioner
Cottage on the river
And all the money I can see
I wanna drive a Lincoln
Spend my evenings drinking
The very best burgandy
I want a yacht for sailing
Private eye for tailing
My wife if She's a bit too free
I've been told ever since a boy
That's what one aught to be
A part of the umc
I want a pool to swim in
Fancy suits to dress in
Some stock in gm and ge
An office in the city
Secretary pretty
Who'll take dictation on my knee
I want a paid vacation
Don't want to have to ration
A thing with anyone but me
And if there's war or famine
Promise I'll examine
The details if they're on tv
I'll pretend to be liberal but I'll still support the gop,
As part of the umc
I wanna be a lawyer
Doctor or professor

Bob Seger | Understanding | /b/bob+seger/understanding_10044227.html | It seems like only yesterday
I didn't have a clue
I stood alone not knowing where to turn
Now suddenly I look around
And everything looks new
I don't know why but I think I'm starting to learn
They call it understanding
Understanding
A willingness to grow
I'm finally understanding
Understanding
There's so much I could know
Until the day you came along
I used to just get lost
I only heard the things I wanted to hear
It always seemed like no cared
Then you took the time
And now I look and everything seems clear
You've got me understanding
Understanding
You've really helped me see
I'm finally understanding
Understanding
It's meant so much to me
You've got me understanding
Understanding
You've given me some pride
I'm finally understanding
You're really on my side
Really on my side
Got me understanding
Understanding
Understanding
You've got me understanding
Understanding
Understanding
You've got me understanding
For the first time
You've got me understanding
You've got me understanding
Understanding...

Aint no cure for love
There aint no cure for love
Aint no cure
Cupid was a blind man
He must have missed his mark
Shot an arrow in the air and hit me in the heart
I went to see Saint Valentine
Said Whats come over me?
Daddy must have missed the chapter about the birds and bees
You can be the King of diamonds
You can cash in all your gold
You could hire Johnnie Cochran
Its too late to save your soul
Don't need no shot, no ambulance
Don't need prescription drugs
There aint no cure for love
They can find the cure for the common cold
When the pushing comes to shove
There aint no cure for love
Now someone call my lawyer
I'm going to see my shrink
I found myself in the jewelry store buying a diamond ring
I went to see my doctor
Said Wont you help me please?
He said Son I'm sorry, its a terminal disease
Can't get no love insurance
Cupid draws his bow
I aint waving boys, I'm drowning
Its a damn good way to go
Don't need no shot, no ambulance
Don't need prescription drugs
There aint no cure for love
They can find the cure for the common cold
When the pushing comes to shove
There aint no cure for love
You can be the King of Diamonds
You can cash in all your gold
You can hire Johnnie Cochran
Its too late to save your soul
Don't need no shot, no ambulance
Don't need prescription drugs
There aint no cure for love
They can find the cure for the common cold
When the pushing comes to shove
There aint no cure for love
No aspirin
No ambulance
Or Voodoo you can think up
Aint no cure for love
Aint no cure for love
Aint no cure for love
Aint no cure for love
There aint no cure for love
Aint no cure for love
Aint no cure for love

Bon Jovi | All About Loving You | /b/bon+jovi/all+about+loving+you_20022146.html | Looking at the pages of my life
Faded memories of me and you
Mistakes you know I've made a few
I took some shots and fell from time to time
Baby, you were there to pull me through
We've been around the block a time or two
I'm gonna lay it on the line
Ask me how we've come this far
The answer's written in my eyes
[Chorus:]
Every time I look at you, baby, I see something new
That takes me higher than before and makes me want you more
I don't wanna sleep tonight, dreamin's just a waste of time
When I look at what my life's been comin' to
I'm all about lovin' you
I've lived, I've loved, I've lost, I've paid some dues, baby
We've been to hell and back again
Through it all you're always my best friend
For all the words I didn't say and all the things I didn't do
Tonight I'm gonna find a way
[Chorus:]
Every time I look at you, baby, I see something new
That takes me higher than before and makes me want you more
I don't wanna sleep tonight, dreamin's just a waste of time
When I look at what my life's been comin' to
I'm all about lovin' you
You can take this world away
You're everything I am
Just read the lines upon my face
I'm all about lovin' you
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus:]
Every time I look at you, baby, I see something new
That takes me higher than before and makes me want you more
I don't wanna sleep tonight, dreamin's just a waste of time
When I look at what my life's been comin' to
I'm all about lovin' you
All about lovin' you

Bon Jovi | All I Wanna Do Is You | /b/bon+jovi/all+i+wanna+do+is+you_20808171.html | Working hard eight days a week
Most days we've got no time to speak
Feels like I'm chasing after my own life
Girl can't you see you're my only vice
Take the phone off the hook
Turn the lights down low
We'll play some old Sam Cooke
Baby, let yourself go
All I wanna do is you
All I wanna do is you
I'll do anything you want me to but
All I wanna do is you
I don't care what kinda clothes you wear
It doesn't matter how you do your hair
I don't need no champagne on ice
Girl, can't you see that you're my only vice
Turn the whole world off
Keep your high heels on
Take it nice and slow
And make it last 'til dawn
All I wanna do is you
All I wanna do is you
I'll do anything you want me to but
All I wanna do is you
I don't wanna eat, I don't wanna sleep
Don't wanna sit around and watch TV
When you're next to me it's where I wanna be
All I wanna, all I wanna, all I, I wanna do
All I wanna do is you
All I wanna do is you
I'll do anything you want me to, but
All I wanna do is you
All I wanna, all I wanna, all I wanna do
All I wanna do now, all I wanna do is you
Baby is you

Bon Jovi | All I Want Is Everything | /b/bon+jovi/all+i+want+is+everything_20022278.html | Some fifteen year old kid sits on his porch
Just half-past noon, trying to figure out just what he's doing
Why he had to grow up so soon
With all the gangs, all the guns, watcha gonna learn in school?
There's got to be some way out of here
He says, "Man, this life is cruel"
I knew this Puerto Rican girl who lied to change her life
She changed her name, her face
Because the grass looked greener on the other side
She turned her back, she ran away straight into the night
Her friends, her family feel the pain but she's the one who cries
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
I want everything
I've had enough of having nothing, I won't take just anything
I got my mind set on something, all I want is everything
It's my life Mr., I ain't running, I'm no puppet on a string
I want more than I see coming
All I want is everything, all I want is everything
My next door neighbor Donnie
Died in his room just the other day
His brother come home
Found him dead on the floor with a needle in his vein
Cops come down with a body bag
They said Donnie was a casualty
I said, all it's about is the boy checked out
He couldn't handle reality
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
I want everything
I've had enough of having nothing, I won't take just anything
I got my mind set on something, all I want is everything
It's my life Mr. I ain't running, I'm no puppet on a string
I want more than I see coming
All I want is everything, all I want is everything

Bon Jovi | All Talk, No Action | /b/bon+jovi/all+talk+no+action_20525228.html | First time I saw you girl,
I knew that it wouldn't be long
I tried holding back my feelings
But you came on so strong
No one told me about her
But I know they all knew
That I know all about the girls
That do the things you do
Cause you're all talk, no action
You're all talk, no action
You're playing those games with me baby,
But one of us has got to win
Someday all the boys are gonna find out
That you won't even play it with them
You're running out of numbers baby
You won't say no, you just say maybe
One of these days you're gonna get
What's coming to you
Cause you're all talk, no action
All talk, no action
You're all talk, no action
You better stop this fooling around
You're all talk no action
You turn it up to cool me down, cool me down, cool me down
Sticks and stones will break my bones
But their names could never hurt me
Cause I ain't afraid of you running away
If you love me tonight then desert me
Cause you're all talk, and no action
You're all talk, but no action
You're all talk, but no action
You're all talk
You're all talk, no action
You're all talk, no action
All talk, no action
All talk, no action

Bon Jovi | Always | /b/bon+jovi/always_20022158.html | This Romeo is bleeding, but you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up
It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up
Now I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well,I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me
Yeah I, will love you, baby
Always and I'll be there
Forever and a day, always
I'll be there, till the stars don't shine
'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
I know when I die you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you, always
Now we're picture's that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh
Some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
Touch your lips, to hold you near,
When you say your prayers, try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man
When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words
You've been needing to hear, I'll wish I was him
'Cause these words are mine, to say to you
'Til the end of time
Yeah I, will love you, baby
Always and I'll be there
Forever and a day, always
If you told me to cry for you, I could
If you told me to die for you, I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you
Well, there ain't no luck in these loaded dice
But baby, if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams, and our old lives,
We'll find a place, where the sun still shines
Yeah I, will love you, baby
Always and I'll be there
Forever and a day, always
I'll be there, till the stars don't shine
'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
I know when I die you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you, always
Always

Bon Jovi | Always Run To You | /b/bon+jovi/always+run+to+you_20022128.html | The clock strikes ten
Out on the streets again
I been looking for something to please me since I don't know when
Out on the dark side of town
Another rumbles gone down
And life on the high side isn't what this boys about
She's got something I want man, it's something I need
It takes more than the night to satisfy me
I stand accused
That I can always run to you
Any road that you choose
I can always run to you
I stand accused
I can always run to you
I run to you
Baby, I can always run
To a heart of chrome
And a soul of steel
We've done more white lines than you'll know any one we could steal
And when I give her the gun
You know she feels so right
And we don't let go when we're alone when I'm holding her so tight.
She's got something I want man, it's something I need
It takes more than the night to satisfy me.
I stand accused
I can always run to you
Any road that you choose
I can always run to you
I stand accused
I can always run to you
I run to you
Baby, I can always run
And when the morning comes and I go to sleep
When I close my eyes she's waiting for me
I know that tonight she'll satisfy me.
I stand accused
I can always run to you
Any road that you choose
I can always run to you
I stand accused
I can always run to you
I run to you
Baby, I can always run

Oh, beautiful for spacious skies
For amber waves of grain
For purple mountain's majesties
Above the fruited plain
America, America
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood

Oh, beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears

I used to see you on every tv
Your smiling face looked back at me.
Then they caught you with the girl next door,
People's money piled on the floor,
Accusations that you try to deny,
Revelations and rumours begin to fly.
Now you think about reaching out
Try to get some help from above.
Now you think about reaching out
Try to get some help from above.
Reporters crowd around your house.
Going through your garbage like a pack of hounds,
Speculating what they may find out,
It don't matter now, you're all washed up.
You wake up in the middle of the night.
Your sheets are wet and your face is white,
You tried to make a good thing last,
How could something so good, go bad, so fast?
American dream, American dream,
American dream, American dream.
Don't know when things went wrong,
Might have been when you were young and strong. (X 2)

Bon Jovi | Another Reason To Believe | /b/bon+jovi/another+reason+to+believe_20525224.html | Love lives in New York City
He got a place off of the park
Heard he was standing in the ruins
And in his hands a broken heart
He called an army of his angels
I heard they had to hide their wings
It was them who brought you water
If you listen closely I know you can hear
The choir singing
Chorus
Hey, hallelujah, baby
Rise Up
Hold out your hands and reach out
Higher
Get up on your feet
Rise Up
Let it flow though you, baby
Run it through your veins
Like a healing rain
Everywhere you'll see
Another reason to believe
I saw him down south of Canal Street
Right there in a mother's eyes
At a table in a restaurant window
In a taxi passing by
Love went running up the stairwell
When the sky came falling down
It was him in a newborn baby's cry
He was there to make that sound
That keeps this whole world spinning 'round
Chorus
Rise Up
Hold out your hands and reach out
Higher
Get up on your feet
Rise Up
Let it flow though you, baby
Run it through your veins
Like a healing rain
Everywhere you'll see
Another reason to believe
It's different than it was before
Now we need it even more
Fire's falling from the sky
Innocence just said goodbye
It may never be the same
Maybe it was time to change
A time to grieve
A time to cry
A time to live
A time to fly

Bon Jovi | Ballad Of Youth | /b/bon+jovi/ballad+of+youth_20022232.html | (sambora, morolda)
Growing up today
Theres many mountains you must climb
Youre not the only one
Cause everybodys on that line
Hey mister know it all
What do you recommend
You think you know the answers
But the questions never end
Young hearts better hold on
Beyond the innocence
Your youth is gone
So look in your mirror
You got nothing to lose
Don't waste your time away
Thinkin bout yesterdays blues
Born outta passion
To a world gone cold
Ya wear it on your shoulders
Its a heavy, heavy load I know
Love and its emotions
Come knocking at your door
Young hearts will be broken
And times the only cure
Young hearts better hold on
Beyond the innocence
Your youth is gone
So look in your mirror
You got nothing to lose
Don't waste your time away
Thinkin bout yesterdays blues
Temptation makes us fall from grace
But the angels were sinners
And the sinners saints
Forgive yourself cause were all the same
Everybody rides on the karma train
Young hearts
Better hold on
Beyond the innocence
Your youth is gone
Look in your mirror
Itll tell you the truth
Don't waste your time away
Don't waste your life away, no, no
Live today
Theres no time to lose
Cause when tomorrow comes
Its all just yesterdays news
All just yesterday news

Bon Jovi | Bang A Drum | /b/bon+jovi/bang+a+drum_20022186.html | I went to see the preacher
To teach me how to pray
He looked at me and smiled
Then the preacher turned away
He said if you want to tell him something
You ain't gotta fold your hands
Say it with your heart
Your soul and believe it
And I'd say amen
Bang a drum for the sinners
Bang a drum for the sins
Bang a drum for the losers
And those who win
Bang a drum bang it loudly
Or as soft as you need
Bang a drum for yourself son
And a drum for me
I called upon my brother just the
Other day, he said: John I'm gonna
Die if I don't start to live again
I work each day and night like clockwork
Just trying to make ends meet
I could kick this bad world's ass
If I could just get on my feet
I'd bang a drum for the dying
Bang a drum for the truth
Bang a drum for the innocence
Lost in our youth
Bang a drum bang it loudly
Or as soft as you need
Bang a drum for you brother
And a drum for me
I don't know where all the rivers run
I don't know how far, I don't know how come
But I'm gonna die believin'
Each step that I take
Ain't worth the ground that
I walk on
If we don't walk it our
Own way
No I don't claim to be a wise man
A poet or a saint
I'm just another man who's searching
For a better way
But my heart beats loud as thunder
For the things that I believe
Sometimes I wanna run for cover
Sometimes I want to scream
Bang a drum for tomorrow
Bang a drum for the past
Bang a drum for the heroes
That won't come back
Bang a drum for the promise
Bang a drum for the lies
Bang a drum for the lovers
And the tears they've cried
Bang a drum bang it loudly
Or as soft as you need
But as long as my heart keeps on bangin'
I got a reason to believe

Bon Jovi | Bed Of Roses | /b/bon+jovi/bed+of+roses_20022208.html | Sitting here wasted and wounded
At this old piano
Trying hard to capture
The moment this morning I don't know
'Cause a bottle of vodka
Is still lodged in my head
And some blond gave me nightmares
I think she is still in my bed
As I dream about movies
They won't make of me when I'm dead
With an ironclad fist I wake up and
French kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps
Its own beat in my head
While we're talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love and the truth and
What you mean to me
And the truth is baby you're all that I need
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses
Well I'm so far away
That each step that I take is on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes I'd given each night
Just to see through this payphone
Still I run out of time
Or it's hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I'll just close my eyes and whisper,
Baby blind love is true
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses
The hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry
The barkeeper's wig's crooked
And she's giving me the eye
I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died
When you close your eyes
Know I'll be thinking about you
While my mistress she calls me
To stand in her spotlight again
Tonight I won't be alone
But you know that don't
Mean I'm not lonely I've got nothing to prove
For it's you that I'd die to defend
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

Bon Jovi | Better Think Twice | /b/bon+jovi/better+think+twice_20626135.html | I just want all those modern romances
Always being in love
When any girl smiled at me I went wild at the touch of her clothes
Then bang it's off before I know it
Poor broken hearted me
Better think twice before falling in love again
Better think twice before falling in love
Jackie's all alone in her room with the TV on
And she's crying, crying
Wondering about how her and Joey been getting along
All this lying, lying
Tell her this, tell her that
Where's these lies gonna end
Things would be much better if her and Joey just stayed friends
Better think twice before falling in love again
Better think twice before falling in love
What's in it for you?
He's trying to shoot you down
Long hot summer nights
Go out now and find that girl and hold her tight
Like she's the only girl in the world
You better think twice
Better think twice before falling in love again
Better think twice before falling in love
Better think twice before falling in love again
Better think twice before falling in love

Life ain't nothing but sad luck days

Tell me is it 'cause you love me, Billy
Or is it just because you love the pain?
Billy, Billy
Ain't love hard to explain?
For a debutante you're a real hard woman
But I love you just the same
How come you're sad when I get happy?
Why do you laugh when I want to cry?
Tell me why when I say I need you
You turn around and you say goodbye?
Why do you think that a heart's so fragile?
Can you tell me why love's so blind?
Just like a magnet you pull me under
I can't resist you, we're two of a kind
Billy, Billy
Ain't love hard to explain?
For a debutante you're a real hard woman
But I love you just the same

Can we be lovers and friends?
Life is like a movie but this ain't pretend
There really have to be a happy end
[Incomprehensible]
Billy, Billy
Ain't love hard to explain?
For a debutante you're a real hard woman
But I love you just the same
I never said you had to walk on water
Or that I could ever stop the rain
Sometimes we break up just to make up, baby
And we don't care who's to blame

Ain't love hard to explain?

Bon Jovi | Bitter Wine | /b/bon+jovi/bitter+wine_20022279.html | We met some time ago when we were almost young
It never crossed my mind to ask where did you come from
I didn't have much money so I stole you a rose
You were dressed like an orphan in salvation army clothes
I never thought I'd lose you,nor I'd rather go blind
I thought I saw a future but the fortune teller lied
Your love was my salvation it could always get me high
What was once holy water tastes like bitter wine
I know I wasn't funny but you laughed at all my jokes
When I was choking on the words to say you your fingers down my throat
The first night I said I love you you told me to go to hell
You were giving me head on that creaky bed at the old duval motel
Just like everything good love has to die
Ain't no sympathy when it says goodbye
Your love was my salvation it could always get me high
What was once holy water tastes like bitter wine
Just like everything good love has to die
No one even cried we were one of a kind
Love left me stranded at the station and the last train's gone by
What was once holy water tastes like bitter wine
Your love was my salvation it could always get me high
You take back the holy water now all that's left is bitter wine

Bon Jovi | Blood Money | /b/bon+jovi/blood+money_20022189.html | Hey Patty Garrett that's what I used to call you
They tell me you want me but I hear they've got you
They made you a lawman with a badge made of silver
They paid you some money to sell them my blood
But you say this ain't about me, this ain't about you
Or the good and the bad times we've both been through
When the lines between brothers and justice have changed
You do what you've got to cause you can't walk away
I wonder what would have happened
If you were the killer
And I was the hero
Would things be the same
Or would I have traded
Your life for my own life
Would I have paid
Your debts in your place
But this ain't about me, this ain't about you
Or the good and the bad times we've both been through
When the lines between brothers and justice have changed
You do what you've got to cause you can't walk away
Blood money
That's what I call it
'Cause money for blood ain't no fair exchange
Blood money
Bought and then sold you
But your conscience is all you can take to your grave

Cause it don't matter what they say
She's Bobby's girl, Johnny, you're playing with dynamite.
She's Bobby's girl, close the door baby, it'll be alright

Bon Jovi | Born To Be My Baby | /b/bon+jovi/born+to+be+my+baby_20022223.html | Rainy night and we worked all day
We both got jobs 'cause there's bills to pay
We got something they can't take away
Our love, our lives
Close the door, leave the cold outside
I don't need nothing when I'm by your side
We got something that'll never die
Our dreams, our pride
My heart beats like a drum (all night)
Flesh to flesh, one to one (and it's alright)
And I'll never let go cause
There's something I know deep inside
You were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be your man
We got something to believe in
Even if we don't know where we stand
Only God would know the reasons
But I bet he must have had a plan
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be your man
Light a candle, blow the world away
Table for two on a TV tray
It ain't fancy, baby that's OK
Our time, our way
So hold me close better hang on tight
Buckle up, baby, it's a bumpy ride
We're two kids hitching down the road of life
Our world, our fight
If we stand side by side (all night)
There's a chance we'll get by (and it's alright)
And I'll know that you'll be live
In my heart till the day that I die
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be your man
We got something to believe in
Even if we don't know where we stand
Only God would know the reasons
But I bet he must have had a plan
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be your man
My heart beats like a drum (all night)
Flesh to flesh, one to one (and it's alright)
And I'll never let go cause
There's something I know deep inside
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be your man
We got something to believe in
Even if we don't know where we stand
Only God would know the reasons
But I bet he must have had a plan
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be your man
You were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be your man

Bon Jovi | Breakout | /b/bon+jovi/breakout_20022137.html | This time girl i've had enough
You're too hot to handle with kid gloves
It's too late i hear a knock on the door
The game's over baby i can't take it no more
[Chorus]
Breakout, breakout
Take these chains from me
You held my heart for ransom
Baby, set it free
Breakout, breakout
Your lies can't hide what i see
I'm better off on my own
Promises made me in the heat of the night (whoa-oh-oh)
Those words were broken under bedroom lights (whoa-oh)
Your lips they burn your body calls my name (whoa-oh)
I can feel the fire but it's all in vain (whoa-oh)
[Chorus]
You say we'll meet around midnight
You're gonna make me feel oh so right
I'm saying oh no not tonight
You gotta let me go
[Chorus]
You say we'll meet around midnight
You're gonna make me feel oh so right
I'm saying oh no not tonight
You gotta let me go

Bon Jovi | Captain Crash And The Beauty Queen From Mars | /b/bon+jovi/captain+crash+the+beauty+queen+from+mars_20022172.html | Dressed up for a big date
Like Halloween day but it was Fourth of July now
A car crash with a suitcase and a painted face
She was one of a kind
She wears a plastic crown like Cinderella
And roller skates in bed
Crash rides the greyhound from his hometown
When he comes around 'cause they don't let him drive now
Mixed up as a milkshake
But make no mistake
They're shooting for the stars
[Chorus:]
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be so tragical, whatever
Dressed up just like ziggy but he couldn't play guitar
Captain Crash and the beauty queen from mars
Share a toothpick, trading lipstick
Watching traffic for days at the diner
Holding hands, making big plans
Playing Superman, he was wearing eyeliner
Another local legend and his longtime lucky charm
[Chorus:]
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be so tragical, whatever
Dressed up just like ziggy but he couldn't play guitar
Captain Crash and the beauty queen from mars
They're drunk on love as you can get
Getting high on lust and cigarettes
Living life with no regrets
At least they're gonna try to fly
[Chorus:]
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be so tragical, whatever
We're Sid and Nancy
Fred and Ginger
Clyde and Bonnie
Liz and Richard
Kurt and Courtney
Bacall and Bogie
Joltin' Joe and Ms. Monroe
Here's captain crash and the beauty queen from mars

Bon Jovi | Church Of Desire | /b/bon+jovi/church+of+desire_20022233.html | (sambora)
Woke up in a cold sweat
In the middle of the night
Seems like a lifetime
When youre wondering whos wrong or right
One confession would resurrect the truth
Revenge or forgiveness for sins between me and you
Now we dance with the devil down lonely
Street, lonely street
Looking for a window in the house of tears
Living in hell, I pray the rain disappears
I'm headed for a breakdown
And the fever runs higher
As I kneel at the altar I can feel your fire
In the church of desire
Church of desire
You never find a reason why love falls from grace
Some kind of voodoo, like a spirit you can't embrace
Theres a voice in the mirror, and a ghost in my heart
That relives the passion before we were torn apart
Now we dance with the devil down lonely
Street, lonely street
Looking for a window in the house of tears
Living in hell, I pray the rain disappears
I'm headed for a breakdown
And the fever runs higher
As I kneel at the altar I can feel your fire
In the church of desire
Church of desire
Now we dance with the devil down lonely
Street, lonely street
Looking for a window in the house of tears
Living in hell, I pray the rain disappears
I'm headed for a breakdown
And the fever runs higher
As I kneel at the altar I can feel your fire
In the church of desire
Church of desire

Bon Jovi | Come Back | /b/bon+jovi/come+back_20022139.html | Now that you're gone, I can see what
Was going on and how you lied
When you'd said you'd never love again
Friends telephone and they say
You weren't out alone last night
Can't you see that this broken heart
Is killing me
Another night is falling
And now my heart is calling you back to me
[Chorus:]
Come back cause I need your love
Come back got to have your love
Come back bring your loving back to me
Come back cause it's been so long
Come back, and my love's still strong
Come back bring your loving back to me
You play with words play with love
It's just your silly way
I'm a fool cause I need you by my side again
Now it's too late you walk by
With another man
And I stand alone
Cause I know that you're not coming home
Another night is falling
And now my heart is calling you back to me
[Chorus]
Another night is falling
And now my heart is calling you back to me
[Chorus]

Bon Jovi | Crazy | /b/bon+jovi/crazy_20177762.html | Crazy, I'm crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy, crazy for feeling so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday you'd leave me for somebody new.
Worry, why do I let myself worry?
Wonderin', what in the world did I do?
Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you.
Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you

Bon Jovi | Dirty Little Secret | /b/bon+jovi/dirty+little+secret_20816587.html | I light a candle
In the garden of love
To blind the angels
Looking down from above
I want, I need
The fruit of your vine
It tastes so bitter sweet
'Cause I know it's not mine
I want to go inside
Hit the lights and I'll come crawling to your window tonight
Come on and send the sign
I'll be your dirty little secret
And you'll be mine
You got me knock, knock knocking at your door
And I'll be coming back for more
We made a promise and we keep it
Our dirty little secret
We act like strangers
When you're holding his hand
'Cause there's a danger
That we both understand
We run like thiefs
Through the temple of sin
Till we fall on our knees then you go back to him
I want to feel alive
Hit the lights and I'll come crawling to your window tonight
Come on and send the sign
I'll be your dirty little secret
And you'll be mine
You got me knock, knock knocking at your door
And I'll be coming back for more
We made a promise and we keep it
Our dirty little secret
Hit the lights and I'll come crawling to your window tonight
Come on and send the sign
I'll be your dirty little secret
And you'll be mine
You got me knock, knock knocking at your door
And I'll be coming back for more
We made a promise and we keep it
Our dirty little secret

Bon Jovi | Downside Of Love | /b/bon+jovi/downside+of+love_20022244.html | Are. Sambora
Theres a danger of getting so close to you
There comes a time
When the walls fade away
And when love turns to bitter blue
Sometimes it feels like its so hard to stay
Last night we went to bed angry
We didint mean what we said
Seems we never get past forgiveness
We try to hide, we never learn
To swallow our pride.
On the down side of love
Where the love turns to hate
We just can't relate
On the down side of love
When youre misunderstood
cause when it hurts you
It hurts you so good.
Baby life has no guarantee
Never knowing where loves gonna lead
Even through youre a part of me
We have to deal with our pain separately
Sometimes we both feel like victims
With no easy way out not, no, no
Somehow we stand by each other
When were desperate, and drowning in
The shadows of doubt.
On the down side of love
Where the love turns to hate
We just can't relate
On the down side of love
cause when it hurts you
It hurts you so good.
The times we share the tenderness
Are the times that keep us alive
You get in my face, you rough me up
But baby you know
can't hurt me nough, to give you up
And make me let go
Make me let got oh no, no.
When youre on the down side of love
Where the love turns to hare
We just can't relate
On the down side of love
When youre misunderstood
cause when it hurts you
It hurts you so good.
Downside of love
Loves just a long, long road baby
Yes theres a down side of love
Stand by my side baby
When youre on the downside of love
No, no, no
Downside of love
cause its a long, long road baby
Downside of love.

Bon Jovi | Everybody's Broken | /b/bon+jovi/everybodys+broken_20427073.html | Welcome to the party
Come on in and disappear
You're feeling like a stranger
But all your friends are here
Little lines and cracks
Around your eyes and mouth
Something's trying to get in
Something's trying to get out
It's OK, to be a little broken
Everybody's broken, in this life
It's OK, to feel a little broken
Everybody's broken, you're alright
It's just life
Step into the deep end
Make yourself at home
When you wonder why your breathing
Know you're not alone
It's so hard to believe
It's easier to doubt
You're trying to hold in
But you're dying to scream out
It's OK to be a little broken
Everybody's broken
In this life
It's OK to feel a little broken
Everybody's broken, you're alright
It's alright, it's just life
Take a look around
Tell me what you see
Is who you think you are
Who you want to be
It's OK, to be a little broken
Everybody's broken, in this life
It's OK, to feel a little broken
Everybody's broken, you're alright
Just keep on going
Eyes wide open
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Yeah

Bon Jovi | Garageland | /b/bon+jovi/garageland_20809546.html | I read the paper just the other day
About a buddy of mine who headed to an early grave
They say he went in his sleep with a smile on his face
Bet he was dreaming 'bout better days
When the crash of the drums hit like waves on a beach
That cheap bass and guitar and our wildest dreams
We were searching for a savior like anybody else
Trying to save ourselves from ourselves
Just a garage band, we weren't alive
We were livin' in Garageland
Our parents all held jobs but we had other plans
We acted like our heroes they just didn't understand
And we were never afraid to fall
It was us and those four walls
Just a garage band, we weren't alive
We were livin' in Garageland
Nothing ever felt so right
Just us, those guitars and a Saturday night
'Cause with a strap on your back, you have wings on your feet
You felt like a king when you walked down the street
We heard those old records and knew we belonged
When the drums hit the groove, we'd all sing along
Just a garage band
Oh, we were livin' in Garageland
Just a garage band, oh, we weren't alive
We were livin' in Garageland
Nothing ever felt so right
It was us, those guitars and a Saturday night

Bon Jovi | Have A Nice Day | /b/bon+jovi/have+a+nice+day_20426753.html | Why, you want to tell me how to live my life?
Who, are you to tell me if it's black or white?
Mama, can you hear me? Try to understand.
Is innocence the difference between a boy and a man.
My daddy lived the lie, it's just the price that he paid.
Sacrificed his life, just slavin' away.
Oh, if there's one thing I hang onto,
It gets me through the night.
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,
I'm gonna live my life.
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge, show the wind how to fly.
When the world gets in my face,
I say, have a nice day.
Have a nice day
Have a nice day
Take a look around you, look nothing's what it seems.
We're living in a broken home of hopes and dreams,
Let me be the first to shake a helping hand.
Everybody, pray enough to take a stand,
I knocked on every door, on every dead end street,
Looking for forgiveness,
What's left to believe?
Oh, if there's one thing I hang onto,
It gets me through the night.
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,
I'm gonna live my life.
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge, show the wind how to fly.
When the world gets in my face,
I say, have a nice day.
Have a nice day
Have a nice day
Oh, if there's one thing I hang onto,
It gets me through the night.
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,
I'm gonna live my life.
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge, show the wind how to fly.
When the world gets in my face,
I say, have a nice day.
Have a nice day.
Have a nice day.
Have a nice day.
Have a nice day.
When the world keeps trying, to drag me down,
I've gotta raise my hands, gonna stand my ground.
Well I say, have a nice day.
Have a nice day
Have a nice day

Bon Jovi | Heartbreak Eyes | /b/bon+jovi/heartbreak+eyes_20626106.html | So now you want to change sides
You say the lesson's been learned
I can tell by your voice, baby just got burned
I can see in your eyes, and read your lips so well
You're a master at disguise but it ain't hard to tell
Anyone that's been through it before knows that look
I can read through your mind like a story book
And there's no happy endings to this life
Cause I can see the heartbreak in your eyes
I can feel the pain that you cry deep inside of those heartbreak eyes
You hear the cries through the night
Calling over and over again
The voices came and took advantage, now you don't want to play
When the word got around he gave your secrets away
Now it's too late to cry you know the damage is done
Dry your tears say goodbye and know he wasn't the one
All your life you been in and out of love
Now you've folded your cards when push came to shove
You're just another number, just a victim of love's lies
I can see the heartbreak in your eyes
I can feel the pain that you cry deep inside of your heartbreak eyes
You hear the cries through the night
Calling over and over again
Over and over again
You hear the cries through the night
Over and over...
I can see the heartbreak in your eyes
I can feel the pain that you cry deep inside of your heartbreak eyes
You hear the cries through the night, calling over and over
Those heartbreak eyes
I can feel the pain you hide deep inside
Deep inside of those heartbreak eyes
You hear the cries through the night, calling over and over
Those heartbreak eyes
I can feel the hurt inside your heartbreak eyes
I can hear the cries at night, over and over again

Heaven help us, Lord, hear our call when we call.
Now I lay me down before I go to sleep.
In a troubled world, I pray the Lord to keep, keep hatred from the mighty,
And the mighty from the small,
Heaven help us all.

Bon Jovi | Hollywood Dreams | /b/bon+jovi/hollywood+dreams_20525153.html | Now I've always been a dreamer
I've had these fantasies run through my mind
The vivid memories of days we spent together
They seem so long ago
Why'd you have to leave me, why'd you let me go
We're used to chasing rainbows, but they're not hard to find
My baby used to love me, fame left it all behind
Now I've become a prisoner, locked up behind four walls
You say I've got life easy, but I've got no life at all
So now I've made the grade, they know who I am
I've made it to the top a lonely man
Those hot lights and Hollywood dreams
Can't bring back the love that you gave to me
Headlines and star on the rise
I lost you chasing those Hollywood Dreams
Smile for the cameras is all they ever say
Transmitting my emotions a thousand miles away
They chase me through the streets, calling out my name
I'm coming home to you, this life is driving me insane
Climbing up those stairs, knocking on the door
She don't recognize me or want me anymore
Those hot lights and Hollywood dreams
Can't bring back, the love that you gave to me
Headlines and star on the rise
I lost you chasing those Hollywood Dreams
Those hot lights and Hollywood Dreams
Can't bring back the love that you gave to me
Headlines and star on the rise
I lost you chasing those Hollywood dreams
Hot lights and Hollywood dreams
Can't bring back, the love that you gave to me
Headlines and star on the rise
I lost you chasing those Hollywood dreams
Hot Lights
The spot lights can't bring back you're love to me
Chasing those Hollywood...

The devil took my hand
Took me from my home
He made me a man
So, don't talk to me about sympathy now
Cause you can't dance if you
Take a chance on your rosary
I'm going down, down, down, down, down

It's been a millions years
That I been gone
I been everywhere, now I'm heading home
Been a lot of girls, but
There's a woman I know
Said don't take no plane
Better take a train
Cause I like it real slow
All the way back home
On the homebound train
I'm going down, down, down, down, down
On the homebound train
I'm on my way
I'm heading home
To be with my baby
Where I belong
Coming down the tracks now
See, I done my time
I'm going back now
To that home of mine
Well, here I come baby
Here I come baby
Here I come baby
All the way back home
On that homebound train
I'm going down, down, down, down, down
On that homebound train

Bon Jovi | I Am | /b/bon+jovi/i+am_20426823.html | How you spend your minutes are what matters
All tomorrows come from yesterdays
When you're feeling broken, bruised and sometimes shattered
Blow out the candles on the cake
Like everything's a big mistake
It seems you always wait for life to happen
And your last buck can't buy a lucky break
If all we've got is us then life's worth living
And if you're in, you know I'm in
I'm ready and I'm willing
I am
When you think that no one needs you, sees you or believes you
No one's there to understand
I am
I'll be there to be that someone
When you think that no one is there to hold your hand
I am
We're just who we are, there's no pretending
It takes a while to learn to live in your own skin
Say a prayer that we might find our happy ending
And if you're in you know I'm in
I'm ready and I'm willing
Chorus: I am
When you think that no one needs you, sees you or believes you
No one's there to understand
I am
I'll be there to be that someone
When you think that no one is there to hold your hand
I am
I ain't got no halo hanging over my head
I ain't gonna judge you, I'm just here to love you
I am, I am
Chorus: I am
When you think that no one needs you, sees you or believes you
No one's there to understand
I am
I'll be there to be that someone
When you think that no one is there to hold your hand
I am
When you think that no one needs you, sees you or believes you
No one's there to understand

I'll be there to be that someone
When you think that no one is there to hold your hand

You can read my life like a fortune told
I've seen the dream, there's no land of Oz
But I got my brain and I got a heart
And courage built I won't let go
What we need right now is, soul
I can't do this, you can't do that
They feed us lines but I won't act
And all good things will come to pass
But the truth is all you have to have
And would you lie for it?
(Do you) cry for it?
(Would you) die for it?
Would you
I believe, I believe
With every breath that I breathe
You and me can turn a whisper to a scream
I believe, I believe
You know what you came here for
You'll pay the cost,
like it's your cross to bear
Are we the ones that put it there
Would you scheme for it
scream for it, bleed for it
Would you
I believe, I believe
Believe we're still worth
The fight you'll see
There's no hope for this world tonight
I believe, I believe
Don't look up on your movie screens
In record stores or magazines
Close your eyes and you will see
That you are all you really need
I believe, I believe
With every breath that I breathe
You and me can turn a
whisper to a scream
I believe, I believe

Bon Jovi | I Don't Want To Live Forever | /b/bon+jovi/i+dont+want+to+live+forever_20186315.html | Frank Sinatra died today
I came home and found my mama crying
The tv had so much to say
Somehow I was thinking about dying
I'm seventeen and thinking about dying
I don't want to live forever
Just want to know that I'm alive
Don't want to live forever
Just until the day I die
I see my daddy in his chair
He sits there night and day
The tv still looks good as new
Daddy's old and gray
And it's scaring me to death
I don't want to go that way
I don't want to live forever
Just want to know that I'm alive
Don't want to live forever
Just until the day I die
Just because your heart's still beating
It don't mean that you're alive
Don't want to live forever
Nobody lives forever
Gonna live while I'm alive
You can see the glass half-empty
You can see the glass half-full
But all I see are shattered dreams
Around this neighborhood
My brother's girlfriend's pregnant
And today she's moving in
My friends all play the lottery
And swear one day they'll win
I'm seventeen, I'm thinking about dying
I'm seventeen, no way I'm dying
Don't want to live forever
Just want to know that I'm alive
Don't want to live forever
Just until the day I die
Just because you're breathing
It don't mean that you're alive
Don't want to live forever
Nobody lives forever
I don't want to live forever
Nobody lives forever
Don't want to live forever
I don't want to live forever
Nobody lives forever
I don't want to live forever
Don't want to live forever
I don't want to live forever
Nobody lives forever
I don't want to live forever
Nobody lives forever
I don't want to live forever

Bon Jovi | I Got The Girl | /b/bon+jovi/i+got+the+girl_20022174.html | It feels like I'm walkin' on air
When we walk down our street
When the neighbors stop to watch us walk by
You can hear 'em talking (let them talk)
Sometimes I think that you're the only reason
The sun still shines (when it shines)
And when this wicked world starts bringing me down
I tell myself that I'm one lucky guy
[Chorus]
I got the girl (with all the cards)
I got the girl (she's a work of art)
I got the girl (who's gonna break my heart)
She says that someday she's gonna marry me
When that day comes that we walk down the aisle
She'll make me feel like a prince, a lord or a king
She likes to wear her stripe with her plaids
And she won't brush her hair (I swear)
She don't like wearing shoes in December
But I don't care (I don't care)
[Chorus]
I got the girl (with all the cards)
I got the girl (she's a work of art)
I got the girl (who's gonna break my heart)
If I was a holy man I'd get down on my knees
So the angels that watch over her would give a break to me
Holy Mother of saint bubble gum and sister band-aid knees
Won't you please pray for the ones like me
But the truth is someday
Somebody is gonna take her (you see)
But the queen of hearts will always be
A five-year-old princess to me (to me)
[Chorus]
I got the girl (with all the cards)
I got the girl (she's a work of art)
I got the girl (who's gonna break my heart)
I got the girl (she's gonna leave her mark)
I got the girl (she's a work of art)
I got the girl (she's gonna break your heart)
I got the girl

Bon Jovi | I Wish Every Day Could Be Like Christmas | /b/bon+jovi/i+wish+every+day+could+be+like+christmas_20022289.html | What time is it baby? Is it that time again?
When snow will be falling, friends will be calling
You know it's time when there'll be carolers singing Silent Night
I love when they sing, the feeling it brings
It's warm as a fire is bright
Soon there'll be toys for the good girls and boys
And reindeer are heading our way
Yes, and Santa will come down the chimney above
There's one thing I wanted to say
I wish everyday could be like Christmas
And if I could have one wish come true
I wish everyday could be full of peace and harmony
I wish everyday could be like Christmas, I do
I saw a child sit with old Mr. Claus
Looked him in the eye and he asked old Santa what peace on earth was
Now the old man grew cautious on how he would say
That is the greatest gift, one you can give everyday
I wish everyday could be like Christmas
And if I could have one wish come true
I wish everyday could be full of peace and harmony
I wish everyday could be like Christmas, I do
Now the mistle-toe and the house a-glow
All the world seems at ease tonight
And all that I ask when these precious moments pass
Is why can't every day be so bright?
I wish everyday could be like Christmas
And if I could have one wish come true
I wish everyday could be full of peace and harmony
I wish everyday could be like Christmas, I do
Honest I do, yes I do now
Very merry Christmas

Bon Jovi | If That's What It Takes | /b/bon+jovi/if+thats+what+it+takes_20022269.html | I played the part of a broken heart upon a shelf
I played that part so lonely and so well
Thought that love belonged to someone else not me and you
Yeah, I know that you've been shattered , you been bruised
We both know what it feels like when you lose
But I'd bet my life on the roll of the dice for you
If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do
Tonight's the night, I'm gonna prove it to you
Do I have to break down, baby just to break through
If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do
If that's what it takes
I bet you counted all the tears I bet you've cried
I bet you swore you'd never let love back inside
'Cause it hurt you way too bad to say good-bye
Now, there'll be times when I might put us to the test
And it's hard for broken hearts to just forget
But I'm driving blind, I'll lay it all on the line for you
If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do
Tonite 's the night, I'm gonna prove it to you
Do I have to break down, baby just to break through
If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do
If that's what it takes
So, when you feel like jumping,
Just when your heart starts pumping
When you're standing out on that ledge-staring over the edge
I'll be there to talk you down, I'll be there before you hit the ground
If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do
Tonight's the night, I'm gonna prove it to you
Do I have to break down, baby just to break through
If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do
If that's what it takes
If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do
If we take the time to do it right, I know we'll pull through
If it took all my life, I'd prove it to you
If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do

Bon Jovi | I'll Be There For You | /b/bon+jovi/ill+be+there+for+you_20626086.html | I guess this time you're really leaving,
I heard your suitcase say goodbye.
And as my broken heart lies bleeding,
they say true love is suicide.
You say you've cried a thousand rivers,
and now you're swimming for the shore.
You left me drowning in my tears,
and you won't save me anymore.
Now I'm praying to God you'll give me one more chance, girl.
I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you.
When you breathe I want to be the air for you.
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you,
Words can't say what love can do.
I'll be there for you
I know you know we've had some good times,
Now they have their own hiding place.
I can promise you tomorrow,
But I can't buy back yesterday.
And baby you know my hands are dirty,
But I wanted to be your Valentine,
I'll be the water when you get thirsty, baby
When you get drunk, I'll be the wine
I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you.
When you breathe I want to be the air for you.
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you,
Words can't say what love can do.
I'll be there for you
And I wasn't there when you were happy,
I wasn't there when you were down.
I didn't mean to miss your birthday, baby
I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out
I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you.
When you breathe I want to be the air for you.
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you,
Words can't say what love can do.
I'll be there for...
I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you.
When you breathe I want to be the air for you.
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you,
Words can't say what love can do.
I'll be there for you

Bon Jovi | I'll Sleep When I'm Dead | /b/bon+jovi/ill+sleep+when+im+dead_20022214.html | Seven days of saturday
Is all that I need
Got no use for Sunday
Cause I don't rest in peace
Don't need no Mondays
Or the rest of the week
I spend a lot of time in bed
But baby I don't like to sleep no
I won't lie to you
I'm never gonna cry to you
I'll probably drive you wild 8 days a week
Until I'm 6 feet under
Baby I don't need a bed
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Till they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
So you're looking for some action
I got got everything you need
Better keep your motor running
Cause I was built for speed
This ain't no slumber party
Got no time for catching z's
If they say that that ain't healthy
Well then living's a disease
We're never going to die baby
Come on let me drive you crazy
We'll make every night another New Year's Eve
Till I'm six feet under
I won't need a bed
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Till they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Sleep when I'm dead, sleep when I'm dead
Gonna live while I'm alive,
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Seven days of Saturday
Is all that I need
Got no use for Sunday
Cause I don't rest in peace
I was born to live
You know I wasn't born to die
But if they party down in heaven
I'll be sure to be on time
Until I'm six feet under
I don't need a bed
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Till they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
I feel like I'm exploding
Going out of my head
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Till I'm six feet under
And they lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Sleep when I'm dead, sleep when I'm dead
Gonna live while I'm alive, sleep when I'm dead

Bon Jovi | I'm With You | /b/bon+jovi/im+with+you_21055378.html | Look at this world
It's filled with worn out places
Forgotten faces
And nothing changes
Whatever happened
To that new day rising
We're just surviving
And living is dying
Are you tired
Of being let down
Another day
Another shakedown
I'm with you
We hope is gone
All you want is the truth
(I'm with you)
You carry on
when it seems no use
I'm with you
I'm with you
If I got one thing
I got something to prove
We all got nothing
If there's nothing to lose
(I'm with you)
I walk in shadows
That seem all familiar
I've read the papers
A life forsaken
A mumble some from
I'm one more for sale sign
Down on Main street
You just walk by
How many times you gotta
Break down
Before somebody's
Gonna shout out
I'm with you
We hope is gone
All you want is the truth
(I'm with you)
You carry on
When it seems no use
I'm with you
If I got one thing
I got something to prove
We all got nothing
If there's nothing to lose
(I'm with you)
When hope is gone
And all you want is the truth
(I'm with you)
You carry on
When it seems no use
It seems no use, It seems no use
When I got one thing
I got something to prove
We all got nothing
If there's nothing to lose
(I'm with you)
(I'm with you)
(I'm with you)
(I'm with you)
(I'm with you)

Bon Jovi | Imagine | /b/bon+jovi/imagine_20525130.html | Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries,
It isn't hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer,
But I'm not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.
Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer,
But I'm not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

Everything here reminds me of you.
There's nothing I wouldn't do.

I'd hold you, I'd need you,
I'd get down on my knees for you.
And make everything alright,

If you were in these arms
Baby, like the roses need the rain.
Like the seasons need to change.
Like the seasons need to change.

You know your favorite old pair of shoes
The ones with the hole in the toe you wont lose
Your favorite record that's all scratched and used
But still you love to play when your feeling blue
That faded rose that's all dried out
Those bukowski poems we couldn't live without
Your high school pic when you had wild hair
That stormy day on the beach that got us here
Oh, you better believe theres just one thing you need
Can't you see...
Its just me baby
Its just me baby
If theres just one thing that you should keep
In your book of dreams
Its just me baby
Just like a shadow 10 feet tall
Standing right behind you should you fall
Ill be the one to hold you up to walk
When this wicked world makes us want to crawl
Abd if your waves should ever break at sea
Ill be there waiting, I'm that sandy beach
I'm that same old dog, scratching those same fleas
Ill be by your side, you can count on me
Its just me baby
Its just me baby
If theres just one thing that you should keep
In your book of dreams
Its just me baby
Its just me baby
Whats it gonna take to make you see
Whats it gonna take til you believe in me
Oh, how my smile fades and my heart just breaks
Every time you go away
Its just me baby
Its just me baby
If theres just one thing that you should keep
In your book of dreams
Its just me baby
Its just me baby
Whats it gonna take to make you see
Whats it gonna take til you believe in me
And if someday some new memory comes along
Looking shiny new, feeling really strong
You can tell him that Ill tell him
He can just move on
I'm a fighter - I've been fighting for you all night long
Its just me baby

Bon Jovi | Just Older | /b/bon+jovi/just+older_20022176.html | Hey, man, it's been a while
Do you remember me?
When I hit the streets I was 17
A little wild, a little green
I've been up and down and in between
After all these years
Can you believe I'm still chasing that dream
But I ain't looking over my shoulder
[Chorus]
I like the bed I'm sleeping in
It's just like me, it's broken in
It's not old -- just older
Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans
This skin I'm in it's alright with me
It's not old -- just older
It's good to see your face
You ain't no worse for wear
Breathing that California air
When we took on the world
When we were young and brave
We got secrets that we'll take to the grave
And we're standing here shoulder to shoulder
[Chorus]
I'm not old enough to sing the blues
But I wore the holes in the soles of these shoes
You can roll the dice 'til they call your bluff
But you can't win until you're not afraid to lose
Well, I look in the mirror
I don't hate what I see
There's a few more lines staring back at me
The nights have grown a little colder
Hey man, I gotta run
Now you take care
If you see coach T. Tell him I cut my hair
It's been all these years
Can you believe I'm still chasing dreams
But I ain't looking over my shoulder
[Chorus]

Bon Jovi | Justice In The Barrel | /b/bon+jovi/justice+in+the+barrel_20022192.html | Hey mister can you help me
I'm a loner on the run
I'm just looking for tomorrow
And I ain't gonna hurt no one
I jumped headfirst into a bottle
I was looking for a friend
Came up just short of nothing
I didn't find the truth I only found an end
So tell me who's gonna save me
Or my father or my son
When the only justice a man can see
Is the barrel of a loaded gun
I been broke and I've been hungry
I think they're both my middle name
But I don't never ever never seem to get enough
Still guess I can't complain
'Cause what you get in life you take it
You've gotta hold on and make it last
They say good things come to those who wait
But it's life that goes so fast
And when there's just one rule you live by
Each day you kiss the rising sun
When you live and die by the life we breathe
In the barrel of a loaded gun
Guns talk to me in my sleep at night
And a gun somewhere is burning
With my name
Winners are losers
And losers will have to face
All those yesterdays
And all of the dreams they blew away
So mister can you help me
Or are you my gun
Have the ghosts of justice
Brought you here to me to taste
The barrel of a loaded gun
There's justice in the barrel
Of a loaded gun

Bon Jovi | Kidnap An Angel | /b/bon+jovi/kidnap+an+angel_20806349.html | I get up every morning, drink coffee alone
My house it's too quiet, I'm the only one home
I let the newspapers pile up at the door
I can't be bothered, I don't read 'em no more
The flowers are blooming, that you planted last spring
I can't make much sense out of anything
If I could kidnap an angel, I'd clip off his wings
And bring them to you that would fix everything
I get in the car like I do every day
Wondering how in the world did it turn out this way?
It's just 'round the corner, turn left and I'm there
I'd do anything to be anywhere but here
If I could kidnap an angel, I'd clip off his wings
And bring them to you that would fix everything
If I could kidnap an angel he could teach us to fly
We'd live forever, forever, we'd never die
If I could kidnap an angel
Now the parking attendant knows my first name
These long green hallways all look the same
There's four elevators, one goes to that floor
I brace myself when I get to the door
I close my eyes and take a deep breath
Then sit down beside your hospital bed
If I could kidnap an angel, I'd clip off his wings
And bring them to you that would fix everything
If I could kidnap an angel he could teach us to fly
We'd live forever, forever, we'd never die
If I could kidnap an angel, if I could kidnap an angel
He'd say the word, he'd tear down these walls
People laughing like children through these hospital halls
There'd be no more tears, there'd be no more blood
There'd be nothing but smiles, nothing but love
If I could kidnap an angel, if I could kidnap an angel

Bon Jovi | Last Chance Train | /b/bon+jovi/last+chance+train_20810055.html | October leaves are falling, so am I
A harvest moon is calling me and I know why
The traffic's like a symphony in blue
In the autumn air I smell your sweet perfume
I miss you sitting cross legged in this empty room
Yesterdays are eating me alive
I'm your angel, baby
I've got broken wings
I can't walk, I can't run, I can't drop
Until you're next to me, so the only thing
You gotta meet me tonight
I'm on a last chance train
Leave a flower the station
I know my destination
Love bring me home again
You try to reach me but I've sailed away
You tried to read me but my words got in the way
The music's over but the dance has just begun
I wish that I could just get back to Baltimore
You know I'd scratch, I'd claw, I'd scream
Till I'm raw, just to fall down at your door
You gotta meet me tonight
I'm on a last chance train
Leave a flower at the station
I know my destination
Love bring me home again
Let the scarecrows laugh coming down the tracks
At the broken hearts that don't come back
'Cause the train has left the station with my pain
Let them forget my name, oh
I'm on a last chance train
Sitting here I smoke my nineteenth cigarette
Now all that's left are ashes, butts and my regrets
It's your taste that I just can't forget
You gotta meet me tonight
I'm on a last chance train
Let the scarecrows laugh coming down the tracks
At the broken hearts that don't come back
We'll be laughing at them, crying in the rain
It's you and I again, oh
You gotta meet me tonight
I'm on a last chance train
Leave a flower at the station
I know my destination
Love bring me home again
I'm on a last chance train
It's gonna bring me home to you
Oh, the last chance train
Coming through, my babe
This time I'm coming through
Coming through

I was walking on a wire
Looking down, there was no net
Now, I'm standing at your door
Me and my last cigarette
Yeah weve been through this before
Too late to cover up my tracks
Damn the fool who begs for more
Ill take my past and paint it black
Now the circus has left town
This clown has got to get his feet back on the ground
I'm learning how to fall
Learning how to take a hit
Had to walk before I crawled
It was winner take it all
Now I'm learning how to fall
Yeah, I got the hang of it
I was standing in the light
There were faces all around
I put my gloves up for a fight
One sucker punch and I was down
I'm learning how to fall
Learning how to take a hit
Had to walk before I crawled
It was winner take it all
I'm learning how to fall
Yeah, I got the hang of it
I was flying through the clouds
Pucker up, its time to kiss the ground
I'm learning how to fall
Learning how to take a hit
Had to walk before I crawled
It was winner take it all
I'm learning how to fall
Now I got the hang of it

Nobody wants you like I want you
Nobody needs you like I need you
You know I would beg and plead, get down on my knees
I'd do most anything, it's true
But I ain't gonna love you
I ain't gonna love you
'Cause I love you
I'll be there to love the things you love
I'll be the one who knows your middle name
Be the only one that you can trust
I'll give you the blood that's in my veins
I swear these words are true
There's only one thing I wouldn't do
I ain't gonna love you
'Cause nobody wants you like I want you
Nobody needs you like I need you
You know I would beg and please, get down on my knees
Do most anything for you
But I ain't gonna love you
I ain't gonna love
'Cause I love you
Because I love you

Bon Jovi | Levon | /b/bon+jovi/levon_20687439.html | Levon wears his war wound like a crown
He calls his child Jesus'cause he likes the name
And he sends him in the finest school in town.
Levon, Levon likes his money
He makes a lot they say
Spends his days counting
In a garage by the motorway.
He was born a pauper
To a pawn on a Christmas Day
When the New York Times
Say God is dead and war's begun.
Alvin Tostig Has a son today.
And he shall be Levon
And he shall be a good man.
And he shall be Levon.
In tradition with the family plan
And he shall be Levon.
And he shall be a good man.
He shall be Levon.
Levon sells cartoon balloons in town.
His family business thrives.
Jesus blows up balloons all day,
Sits on the porch swing watching them fly.
And, Jesus he wants to go to Venus.
Leave Levon far behind.
Take a balloon and go sailing,
While Levon, Levon slowly dies.
And he shall be Levon
And he shall be a good man.
He shall be Levon....

Bon Jovi | Lie To Me | /b/bon+jovi/lie+to+me_20022270.html | Rumour has it that your daddy's coming down
He's gonna pay the rent
Tell me baby, is this as good as life is gonna get
It feels like there is a stranger standing in these shoes
But, I know I can't lose me, 'cause then I'd be losing you
I know I promised baby
I would be the one to make our dreams come true
I ain't too proud of all the struggles
And the hard times we've been through
When this cold world comes between us
Please tell me you'll be brave
'Cause I can realize the danger when forgiveness fades away
If you don't love me, lie to me
'Cause baby you're the one thing I believe
Let it all fall down around us, if that's what's meant to be
Right now if you don't love me baby, lie to me
Pour another cup of coffee, babe I got something to say to you
I ain't got the winning ticket
Not the one that's gonna pull us through
No one said it'd be easy, let your old man take you home
But know if you walk out on me
That darling, I'd be gone
If you don't love me, lie to me
'Cause baby you're the one thing I believe
Let it all fall down around us, if that's what's meant to be
Right now if you can't love me baby, lie to me
Baby, I can take it
It's a bitch, but life's a roller coaster ride
The ups and downs will make you scream sometimes
It's hard believing that the thrill is gone
But we got to go around again, so let's hold on
If you don't love me, lie to me
'Cause baby you're the one thing I believe
Let it all fall down around us, if that's what's meant to be
Right now if you can't love me baby, lie to me, lie to me
Baby I can take it

Bon Jovi | Life's Too Short For Days Like These | /b/bon+jovi/lifes+too+short+for+days+like+these_20626073.html | Needed a car, looked around for a week
For two dollars down I signed my name on the lease
There was a knock on my door, old man wants his keys
All he said was something about bankruptcy
Oh no, here we go
There ain't no day that's different from the day you know that
Life's too short for days like these
Try to close my eyes and just go back to sleep
It's hard to keep running when you're down on your knees
Life's too short for days like these
Minding my own business in a restaurant
Trying to get some dinner but then guess what?
Some chick got there I slept with, threw her drink in my face
And then her ugly brother kicked my ass all over the place
Oh no, here we go
Ain't no day that's different from the day you know that
Life's too short for days like these
Try to close my eyes and just go back to sleep
It's hard to keep running when you're down on your knees
Life's too short for days like these
Too short baby
I met her last night at quarter to three
I couldn't believe that she came home with me
Woke up this morning scratching now I know when to leave
They say you lay down with dogs, you wake up with fleas
You know that life's too short for days like these
Try to close my eyes and just go back to sleep
It's hard to keep running when you're down on your knees
Life's too short for days
Life's too short for days like these
Seems like lately baby it's all trick or treat
I'd get up and dance if I could get on my feet
Life's too short for days
Life's too short for days
Life's too short for days like these
Life's too short for days like these
Wish I could close my eyes and just go back to sleep
It's hard to keep running when you're down on your knees
Cause life's too short
You know that life's too short for days like these
They say life's too short

Bon Jovi | Little Bit Of Soul | /b/bon+jovi/little+bit+of+soul_20022218.html | You been robbed
You been used
You been crucified and
You been abused
You been sacrificed and
Now you're confused
Ain't it the truth
You got a hole in your head
And a cold empty spot
In your big brass bed
When you're mad at the world and
You feel like you're losing control
All you need to get by is
A little bit o soul
When you've lost in the flood
And you feel like you been
Kicked through the mud
You know they still
Haven't found the drug
To pick us up
Feeling down, misunderstood
You know these times
They ain't looking so good
When you're mad at the world and
You feel like you're losing control
What we all need to get by is
A little o soul
Whoa oh
Little bit of soul
What we all need
To survive
Is just
A little bit o soul
Everyone's complaining
Nothing but frustration
The king has pissed in
Your pot of gold
It ain't entertaining spending
So much time in the hole
Send down
A little bit o soul
When you're mad at the world
And you feel like
You're losing control
What we all need
To get by is just
A little bit o soul
Whoa oh little bit o soul
Whoa oh little bit o soul
Whoa oh little bit o soul

Bon Jovi | Little City | /b/bon+jovi/little+city_20022203.html | J. bon jovi
I got my call light on
Gimme one more fare tonight
Just get me over the bridge
I can see those shiny bay lights
You know Im never alone
But Im feeling lonely tonight
Damn, I got my last cigarette
But I aint got not light
God let these wheels roll
To where the girls are pretty
When the nights explode
And life is still living
Down this open road
The arms of pity
Wait to greet me tonight in little city
In my rear view mirror
I see someone elses hairline
I hear that fire in your eyes
Is on the rock and doing hard time
And the grapes of wrath, theyre on the vine
Theres wine in this dirt
Here love aint love
Its just another four letter word
God let these wheels roll
To where the girls are pretty
When the nights explode
And life is still living
Down this open road
The arms of pity
Wait to greet me tonight in little city
Now that cold gray fogs
Just a rolling down the highway
Hes come to carry me home
Its put a little smile on my face

Bon Jovi | Living In Sin | /b/bon+jovi/living+in+sin_20022227.html | I don't need no license
To sign on no line
And I don't need no preacher
To tell me you're mine
I don't need no diamonds
I don't need no new bride
I just need you, baby
To look me in the eye
I know they have a hard time
And your Daddy don't approve
But I don't need you Daddy
Telling us what we should do
Now there's a million questions
I could ask about our lives
But I only need one answer
To get me thought the night
So, I say
Baby, can you tell me
Just where we fit in
I call it love
They call it living in sin
Is it you and me
Or just this world we live in
I say we're living on love
They say we're living in sin
Is it right for both our parents
Who fight it out most nights
Then pray for God's forgiveness
When they both turn out the lights
Or wear that ring of diamonds
When you heart is made of stone
You can talk but still say nothing
You stay together but alone
Or is it right to hold you
And kiss your lips goodnight
They say the promise is forever
If you sign it on the dotted line
Oh baby, can you tell me
Just where we fit in
I call it love
They call it living in sin
Is it you and me or
Just this world we live in
I say we're living on love
They say we're living in sin
Baby, can you tell me
Just where we fit in
I call it love
They call it living in sin
Is it you and me or
Just this world we live in
I call it love
They call it living in sin
I don't know where to begin
I don't know where we fit in
Living in sin

Bon Jovi | Lonely At The Top | /b/bon+jovi/lonely+at+the+top_20022293.html | Tell Franie I'm sorry she didn't get to know her dad
I'll bet he's sorry he didn't get to know you too
Tell her there'll be people singing things that make her sad
How her daddy felt alone how he was hurtin' bad
I guess that won't be too far from the truth
Yeah, it's lonely at the top
Happy is one thing it's not.
I was jaded, suffocated, it got too hard to breath
But I never got as high as I needed to be
You know life becomes worthless when they steal your dreams
I just couldn't live with what was left for me
And I couldn't run far enough from the truth, what's the use
Yeah, it's lonely at the top
Happy's one thing it's not
Before you know you find yourself alone and looking down
No one there can help you stop before you hit the ground
It's lonely at the top ooh yeah
Tell Franie, I'm sorry I better kiss her when she cries
I'm sorry I left her, never said good bye
Didn't mean to leave you all alone but then the music died
Through the song remains the same, I couldn't live that lie
You know that ain't too far from the truth
Yeah, it's lonely at the top
Happy's one thing it's not
Before you know you find yourself alone and looking down
No one there to help you stop before you hit the ground
Yeah, it's lonely at the top
Yeah, it's lonely at the top
It's lonely

Bon Jovi | Lonely Is The Night | /b/bon+jovi/lonely+is+the+night_20626068.html | I need someone, I need somebody to be a friend,
I'm not alone, but still I'm lonely in the end
She was runnin' away on the 9 o'clock train, so very far from home,
With a head full of schemes, a handful of dreams
I was on my own
I know you're out there, I know you're there
Lonely, lonely is the night
Lonely, lonely is the night
What can I do, what can I say, to get her back,
Alone I wait before my train comes runnin' down the tracks
Heaven knows that I'd wait if God were to say that you would come
I guess you can say it's the price that you pay for holdin' on
I know you're out there, I know you're there
Lonely, lonely is the night
Lonely, lonely is the night
Lonely, lonely is the night
Lonely, lonely is the night
If you want me, if you need me, I'll be there,
If you want me, please believe me, I'll be waiting
I know you're out there, I know you're there
Lonely, lonely is the night
Lonely, lonely is the night
Lonely, lonely is the night
Lonely, lonely is the night

Hey, hey
In my rearview mirror
My life is getting clearer
The sunset sighs and slowly disappears
These trinkets once were treasure
Life changes like the weather
You grow up, grow old, or you hit the road 'round here
So I drive (Drive, drive)
Watching white lines passing by
With my plastic dashboard Jesus
Waiting there to greet us
[Chorus:]
Hey, hey
I finally found my way
Said goodbye to yesterday
Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes on this lost highway
Yeah, I'm busting loose, I'm lettin' go
Out on this open road
It's independence day on this lost highway
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Don't know where I'm going
But I know where I've been
I'm afraid of going back again
So I drive (Drive, drive)
Years and miles are flying by
And waiting there to greet us
Is my plastic dashboard Jesus
[Chorus]
Oh patron saint of lonely souls
Tell this boy which way to go
Guide the car, you've got the keys
Farewell to mediocrity
Kicking off the cruise control
And turning up the radio
Got just enough religion
And a half a tank of gas
Come on
Let's go
I finally found my way
Said goodbye to yesterday
Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes on this lost highway
I'm busting loose, I'm lettin' go
When I'm out on this open road
It's independence day on this lost highway
Hey hey
Hey hey
Hey hey
On this lost highway

She says every girl in the past is just a waste of time
You know, whoa
She don't believe in miracles and make-believe
If you were blind you still could see
That she believes in me, Oh
Feels like I found a pocket full of gold
[Chorus]
I'm lucky baby
So lucky baby
Lucky to be with you today
Lucky to be the one to say "I'm lucky baby"
So lucky baby
Whenever I see your smiling face
Lucky to be the one to be lucky
Now all of heaven's angels have to wear their wings
She likes cheap sunglasses and diamond rings
You know, oh
She brings sunshine to a cloudy day
When we walk on by people stop and say
[Chorus]
I'm lucky baby
So lucky baby
Lucky to be with you today
Lucky to be the one to say "I'm lucky baby"
I'm lucky baby
I got lucky when you found me
It only took one kiss to see
What did I do to get to be so lucky baby?
[Chorus]
I'm lucky baby
Whenever I see your smiling face
Lucky to be the one to be lucky

Living this dream on the endless roads
Faces in the crowd, they stare at me
Yours is the only one I wanted to see
My heart cries out for sympathy
But I need to hold you next to me
And it won't be long, baby
Maybe tomorrow
These hotel rooms they're all the same
Only the number on the door will be changed
Lord I gotta do me one more show
Then it's into the bus and off we go
Should have talked to you
Well I don't have to try
When I find the music in your eyes
And I'm telling myself that we'll take that ride, baby
Maybe tomorrow
I should've talked to you
Well I don't got to try
Where I can find the music in your eyes
We're all blind, two lovers, into the night
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow

Bon Jovi | Misunderstood | /b/bon+jovi/misunderstood_20022152.html | Should I? Could I?
Have said the wrong things right a thousand times
If I could just rewind, I see it in my mind
If I could turn back time, you'd still be mine
You cried, I died
I should have shut my mouth, things headed south
As the words slipped off my tongue, they sounded dumb
If this old heart could talk, it'd say you're the one
I'm wasting time when I think about it
[Chorus:]
I should have drove all night,
I would have run all the lights
I was misunderstood
I stumbled like my words,
Did the best I could
Damn, misunderstood
Could I? Should I?
Apologize for sleeping on the couch that night
Staying out too late with all my friends
You found me passed out in the yard again
You cried, I tried
To stretch the truth, but didn't lie
It's not so bad when you think about it
[Chorus]
Intentions good
It's you and I, just think about it
I should have drove all night
I would have run all the lights
I was misunderstood
I stumbled like my words, did the best I could
I 'm hanging outside your door
I've been here before
Misunderstood
I stumbled like my words, did the best I could
Damn, misunderstood
Intentions good.

On her back she's pushing trying
He holds her hand and kneels beside her bed
Break the silence baby screaming
In slow motion she ain't dreaming she closed her eyes looked
Up to God and says
Chorus
Should I cry a little more
Should I try a little more
I'd pay the cost and laugh it off
I'd do it all a thousand times again
No Regrets
Living's hard and dying's easy
My mistakes they won't defeat me
I like to burn the candle at both ends
I've broke some hearts been broken hearted
I've run away from fires I've started
I didn't break but tried my best to bend
Chorus
Should I cry a little more
Should I try a little more
I'd pay the cost and laugh it off
I'd do it all a thousand times again
No Regrets
No regrets-for things I've done
No regrets-for wars I've won
No regrets-for fires I've started
No regrets-for faith departed
Should I cry a little more
Should I die a little more
Should I lie a little more
Should I get high a little more
Should I cry a little more
Should I try a little more
I'd pay the cost and laugh it off
I'd do it all a thousand times again

In the ruins of his dreams

Happy to see that the dawn was slowly breaking
And the women knelt beside him

She bathed his wounds
And he kissed her trembling fingers

In the town San Domingo
As we laughed and danced all night
To the thrub of flamingo guitars
Seemed a long long way from tomorrow's fight
He came from over the sea
Full of the passion of when
You were born to be free
From the Valley of Ronda

To the hills above Freno
Just to die against her shoulder

Tra la la la la
This is the story of El Lute
A man who was born to be hunted like a wild animal
Because he was poor
But he refused to accept his fate
And today his honor has been restored
He was only nineteen
When was sentenced to die
For something that somebody else did
And blamed on El Lute
Then they changed it to life
And so he could escape
From then only chased him
And searched for him day and night
All over Spain
But the search was in vain
For El Lute
He had only seen the dark side of life
The man they called El Lute
And he wanted a home
Just like you and like me
In a country where all would be free
Though he taught himself
To read and to write
It didn't help El Lute
He was one who had dared to escape overnight
They had to find
El Lute
Soon the fame of his tale
Spread like wild fire
All over the land
Were the prize on his head
People still gave him bread
And they gave him a hand
For they knew he was right
And his fight was their fight
No one gave you a chance
In the Spain of those days
On was every place
They had put up the face of El Lute
And he robbed where he could
Just like once Robin Hood
They finally caught him
And that seemed the end
But they caught him in vain
Cause a change came for Spain
And El Lute
He had only seen the dark side of life
And then freedom really came to his land
And also to El Lute
Now he walks in the line
Of a sunny new day
The man they call El Lute

Boney M. | Going Back West | /b/boney+m/going+back+west_20022534.html | I was born and raised in the ghetto
Talk with me and you'll know
I wasn't satisfied, with living on the side
I started looking around, for a possibility
Listen to my story, of what became of me
I met a businessman
Who said he had some friends back east
So why don't you come along
Well we can help you at least
We'll make you into a big star
By playing your guitar
But the joke was on me
They left me flat to see
Going back west
Yes I know I'll make out alright
Going back west
Where my music's playing all night
Going back west (going back west)
I think I'll do alright
Going back west
Yes I know I'll make out alright
Going back west
Where my music's playing all night
Going back west (going back west)
I think I'll do alright
Struggling for recognition, identity and respect
I got a lot of promises
They told me not to fret
So we will stand by you
If the going gets rough
But when I started thinking
They didn't even bluff
'Bout a year has come and gone
And left me standing here
Thinking how it could have been
For still I ain't nowhere
They surely took me for a ride
Trampled on my pride
But I hold my head up high
Got no more tears to cry
Going back west
Yes I know I'll make out alright
Going back west
Where my music's playing all night
Going back west (going back west)
I think I'll do alright
Going back west
Yes I know I'll make out alright
Going back west
Where my music's playing all night
Going back west (going back west)
I think I'll do alright
Going back west
Yes I know I'll make out alright
Going back west
Where my music's playing all night

Boney M. | Goodbye My Friend | /b/boney+m/goodbye+my+friend_20022452.html | Whirlwind you must know he can't leave
Ever since he was young he had known what a man should know
With no hatred inside
Whirlwind take the wife and the child
Find the trail that leads south
To the lands they have given you
The new home for your tribe
Brother of blood
I have heard that the soldiers are two moons away
They come with many guns
And death is waiting for a brave man
Such as you
Goodbye my friend you must be on your way
Down through the canyons we wait and we pray
Goodbye my friend you can linger no more
Gun smoke is rising so run to that war
Beyond the hills the far horizon
In the purple evening sky
You'll find the valley of walhalla
There when you die
