George Formby | Aunty Maggies Homemade Remedy | /g/george+formby/aunty+maggies+homemade+remedy_21109356.html | Now there's all sorts of medicines that you can buy
No matter what ailment youve got
But I know a special one you ought to try
Youll find it's the best of the lot
Its my Auntie Maggies home made remedy, it's guaranteed never to fail
That's the stuff that will do the trick
Its sold at every chemist for "one and a kick".
Now if youve got lumbago, rheumatics or gout, or a pain in your Robert E. Lee
Don't kick up a shindy, you'll never get windy with Auntie Maggies Remedy
If you set your alarm clock for eight in the morning
Youre bound to wake up I'll agree
But I'll bet you by heaven, you'll wake up at seven
With my Auntie Maggies Remedy
In a young ladys bedroom I went by mistake
My intentions were honest you see
She shouted with laughter, "I know what you're after
Its my Auntie Maggies Remedy. "
Oh my Auntie Maggies home made remedy, it's guaranteed never to fail
That's the stuff that will do the trick
Its sold at every chemist for "one and a kick".
Now if youve got lumbago, rheumatics or gout, or a pain in your Robert E. Lee
Don't kick up a shindy, you'll never get windy with Auntie Maggies Remedy
Now when the baby starts crying, there's always a reason
And if you inspect him you'll see,
The poor little chappy has covered his nappy
With Auntie Maggies Remedy
Now I went to a doctor, I wasn't too well
And he made me lie on a settee
He said "there's trouble brewing, youve been overdoing
Your Auntie Maggies Remedy. "
Now I know a girl who was putting on weight,
In a spot where it just shouldn't be
So I said to Nellie, "Now you rub your ankle, with Auntie Maggies Remedy."
Additional Verse
Now one day at the races, the hors that I backed
Could have won it was easy to see
But the trainer said after "it would have gone faster
With aunty Maggies remedy"

George Formby | Biceps, Muscle And Brawn | /g/george+formby/biceps+muscle+and+brawn_20795319.html | Why am I forgotten, by the girl I love, because my clothes hang on me like a
sack.
I know I'm not athletic and look a bit pathetic, and wear most of my chest
upon my back.
The nation's got an A1 plan, and I might turn into a man,
If I'd Biceps, Muscle and Brawn.
I'd grow spinach on my chest, where the birds could build a nest
If I'd Biceps, Muscle and Brawn.
In competitions, exhibitions, Catch as Catch Catch,
I would win some lovely cups and saucers to match.
The girls would all love my physique, I'd let them see it twice a week,
If I'd Biceps, Muscle and Brawn.
My ribs at knock knock, wouldn't play or rattle on a windy day,
If I'd Biceps, Muscle and Brawn.
Hercules was far from slim, but I could show them more than him
If I'd Biceps, Muscle and Brawn.
In competitions, exhibitions, Catch as Catch Catch,
I would win some lovely cups and sauces to match.
The ladies "white hope" I would be, they'd hope to see much more of me
If I'd Biceps, Muscle and Brawn.
I'd look swell when out of doors, in my fifty bob plus fours,
If I'd Biceps, Muscle and Brawn.
My photo in the press you'd see, to show what "bile beans" did for me
If I'd Biceps, Muscle and Brawn.
In competitions, exhibitions, Catch as Catch Catch,
I would win some lovely cups and sauces to match.
I'd have strength to carry on and something good to sit upon,
If I'd Biceps, Muscle and Brawn.

George Formby | Chinese Laundry Blues | /g/george+formby/chinese+laundry+blues_20166605.html | Now Mr. Wu was a laundry man in a shop with an old green door.
He'll iron all day your linen away, he really makes me sore.
He's lost his heart to a Chinese girl and his laundry's all gone wrong.
All day he'll flirt and scorch your shirt, that's why I'm singing this song.
Oh Mr. Wu, what shall I do, I'm feeling kind of Limehouse Chinese Laundry
Blues.
This funny feeling keeps round me stealing
Oh wont you throw your sweetheart over do.
My vest's so short that it won't fit my little brother.
And my new Sunday shirt has got a perforated rudder.
Mr. Wu, what shall I
I'm feeling kind of Limehouse Chinese Laundry Blues.
Now Mr. Nu, he's got a naughty eye that flickers.
You ought to see it wobble when he's ironing ladies blouses.
Mr. Wu, what shall I do, I'm feeling kind of Limehouse Chinese Laundry Blues.
Now Mr. Wu, he's got a laundry kind of tricky,
He'll starch my shirts and collars but he'll never touch my waistcoat..
Mr. Wu, what shall I do, I'm feeling kind of Limehouse Chinese Laundry Blues.

George Formby | Noughts And Crosses | /g/george+formby/noughts+and+crosses_20795022.html | I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you
Than go to the pictures or the zoo
I'm very daft at dancing, at moonlight or romancing
I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you.
I've never been one for billiards or darts
I'm much too shy to play a game of hearts.
At dog tracks or the races I always lose my braces
I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you.
Here I am, a funny sort of guy, I wouldn't dare to hold your hand
Let's begin, maybe I'll let you win, I hope that you understand
Sitting around a table for two, that's the only thing I want to do
There's something cute about you, I couldn't do without you
Playing a simple game, tell me you feel the same
I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you.
I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you
Than take you to a French non-stop revue.
It may not be so funny, but still it saves me money.
I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you.
I haven't the manly figure for sports,
I never think I look my best in shorts.
I lose my breath at biking and as for that mixed hiking
I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you.
One fine day, if luck should come my way, we'll have a little kitchenette.
You and me, and when we've had our tea, I hope that you won't forget
Playing at noughts and crosses with you
That's the only way that I can woo
Though now you're far above me, in time you'll learn to love me
Isn't it bold and bad - but I feel a lad.
Playing at noughts and crosses with you.

George Harrison | Any Road | /g/george+harrison/any+road_20289093.html | Oh I've been traveling on a boat and a plane
In a car on a bike with a bus and a train
Traveling there and traveling here
Everywhere in every gear
But oh Lord we pay the price with a
Spin of a wheel with the roll of a dice
Ah yeah you pay your fare
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there
And I've been traveling through the dirt and the grime
From the past to the future through the space and the time
Traveling deep beneath the waves
In wattery grottoes and mountainous caves
But oh Lord we've got to fight
With the thoughts in the head with the dark and the light
No use to stop and stare
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there
You may not know where you came from
May not know who you are
May not even wondered how
You got this far
I've been traveling on a wing and a prayer
By the skin of my teeth by the breadth of a hair
Traveling where the four winds blow
With the sun on my face, in the ice and the snow
But ooee it's a game
Sometimes you're cool, sometimes you're lame
Ah yea it's somewhere
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there
But oh Lord we pay the price
With the spin of a wheel, with the roll of a dice
Ah yea, you pay your fare
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there
I keep traveling around the bend
There was no beginning, there is no end
It wasn't born and never dies
There are no edges, there is no sides
Oh yea, you just don't win
It's so far out - the way out is in
Bow to God and call him Sir
But if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

George Harrison | Cool Dry Place | /g/george+harrison/cool+dry+place_20059176.html | Well I woke up this morning
The place was such a reck
I couldn't reach the bathroom
Thought Id better clear the deck
I tried to call the lawyer
And ask him what to do
He referred me to his doctor
Who referred me back to you
And when you checked the manual
You kept in side the case
It said put it in a cool dry place
I drove around the city
Looking for a room
That was high above the water
Where my things could be in tune
There was no one to help me
Nobody even cared
I had to got through hell
To get those things up there
I paid my first subscription
Then I joined the idle race
And they said store it in a cool dry place
I got guitar, basses, amplifiers and drums
Accordions and mandolis and things that sometimes hum
Cymbals and harmonicas, capos by the score
And lots of things in boxes laying all around the floor
Some places they get mildew
And others get too hot
Some places are so damp that
Everything you got just rots
All kinds of condensation
Directories of the rain
Theres not much compensation
When everythings been stained
Some have sentimental value that
Cannot be erased
Go store it in a cool dry place
We got solids and acoustics
And some from flowered board
And some are trimmed in leather
And some are made with gourds
Theres organs and trombones
And reverbs we can use
Lots of dx-7s
And old athletic shoes
I bought a great big building
It took up one whole block
I made an inventory
Of all the things in stock
The place was getting longer
I was up all night
I used up all my pencils
But I went onto spite
The blury of my vision
The sweat upon my face
I've got to put this stuff away
I mustnt leave a trace
The landlords breathing down my neck
He says its a disgrace
So I said put it in a cool, dry, place.

George Harrison | Dark Horse | /g/george+harrison/dark+horse_20059078.html | You thought that you knew where I was and when
But it looks like they've been foolin' you again,
You thought that you'd got me all steaked out
But baby looks like I've been breaking out
I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I stepped from out of the womb
I've been a cool jerk
Looking for the source
I'm a dark horse.
You thought you had got me in your grip
Baby looks like you was not so smart
And I became too slippery for you
But let me say that was nothing new.
I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I picked up my first spoon
I've been a cool jerk
Looking for the source
I'm a dark horse
I thought that you knew it all along
Until you started getting me not right
Seems as if you heard a little late
But I warned you when
We both were at the starting gate
I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I stepped from out of the womb
I've been a cool jerk
Cooking at the source
I'm a dark horse.

George Harrison | Devil's Radio | /g/george+harrison/devils+radio_20059050.html | Gossip, gossip
Gossip, gossip
I heard it in the night
Words that thoughtless speak
Like vultures swooping down below
On the devil's radio
I hear it through the day
Airwaves gettin' filled
With gossip broadcast to and fro
On the devil's radio
Oh yeah, gossip
Gossip, oh yeah
He's in the clubs and bars
And never turns it down
Talking about what he don't know
On the devil's radio
He's in your TV set
Won't give it a rest
That soul betraying so and so
The devil's radio
Gossip, gossip
Gossip, gossip
(Oh yeah) gossip, (gossip) oh yeah
(Gossip) oh yeah, (oh yeah) gossip
It's white and black like industrial waste
Pollution of the highest degree
You wonder why I don't hang out much
I wonder how you can't see
He's in the films and songs
And on all your magazines
It's everywhere that you may go
The devil's radio
Oh yeah, gossip
Gossip, oh yeah
Runs thick and fast, no one really sees
Quite what bad it can do
As it shapes you into something cold
Like an Eskimo igloo
It's all across our lives
Like a weed it's spread
'till nothing else has space to grow
The devil's radio
Can creep up in the dark
Make us hide behind shades
And buzzing like a dynamo
The devil's radio
(Gossip) oh yeah, (gossip) oh yeah
(Gossip) gossip, (gossip) gossip
Oh yeah, gossip I heard you on the secret wireless
Gossip, oh yeah You know the devil's radio, child
Gossip, gossip
Gossip, gossip

George Harrison | End Of The Line | /g/george+harrison/end+of+the+line_20059179.html | Well it's all right, riding around in the breeze
Well it's all right, if you live the life you please
Well it's all right, doing the best you can
Well it's all right, as long as you lend a hand
You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring
Waiting for someone to tell you everything
Sit around and wonder what tomorrow will bring
Maybe a diamond ring
Well it's all right, even if they say you're wrong
Well it's all right, sometimes you gotta be strong
Well it's all right, as long as you got somewhere to lay
Well it's all right, everyday is judgment day
Maybe somewhere down the road aways
You'll think of me, wonder where i am these days
Maybe somewhere down the road when somebody plays
Purple haze
Well it's all right, even when push comes to shove
Well it's all right, if you got someone to love
Well it's all right, everything'll work out fine
Well it's all right, we're going to the end of the line
Don't have to be ashamed of the car i drive
I'm glad to be here, happy to be alive
It don't matter if you're by my side
I'm satisfied
Well it's all right, even if you're old and gray
Well it's all right, you still got something to say
Well it's all right, remember to live and let live
Well it's all right, the best you can do is forgive
Well it's all right, riding around in the breeze
Well it's all right, if you live the life you please
Well it's all right, even if the sun don't shine
Well it's all right, we're going to the end of the line

I love you more than ever, girl, I do, tale of the blues

Not found, livin no city
He smile, mucho in a sunshine
High life, counting de fruit bat
Troppo, gone troppo, troppo

Plant me, in de Helicona
No thank, meeting de peoples
Wake me, eata the papaya
Much hot, not much on the body
Troppo, gone troppo, gone troppo
It's time you know I gone troppo
Warm sea, see right to the bottom
No like, shoveling snowfall
Good time, drinking on me bottle
The high wide Moreton Bay Fig
Troppo, gone troppo, troppo
It's time you know I gone troppo
Quite like, you ain't seen a sunset
Could be, living in Rain hill
Sun hot, you don't go to a backache
Brown skin and very a peeling
Troppo, gone troppo, gone troppo
It's time you know I gone troppo

George Harrison | Handle Me With Care | /g/george+harrison/handle+me+with+care_20631800.html | Been beat up and battered 'round
Been sent up, and I've been shot down
You're the best thing that I've ever found
Handle me with care
Reputations changeable
Situations tolerable
Baby, you're adorable
Handle me with care
I'm so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Won't you show me that you really care
Everybody's got somebody to lean on
Put your body next to mine, and dream on
I've been fobbed off, and I've been fooled
I've been robbed and ridiculed
In day care centers and night schools
Handle me with care
Been stuck in airports, terrorized
Sent to meetings, hypnotized
Overexposed, commercialized
Hand me with care
I'm so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Won't you show me that you really care
Everybody's got somebody to lean on
Put your body next to mine, and dream on
I've been uptight and made a mess
But I'll clean it up myself, I guess
Oh, the sweet smell of success
Handle me with care

George Harrison | Here Comes The Moon | /g/george+harrison/here+comes+the+moon_20059041.html | Everybody's talking up a storm
Act like they don't notice it
But here it is and here it comes
Here comes the moon, the moon, the moon, the moon, the moon.
Impulse always quickens when it's full
As it turns my head around me
Yes it does and here it comes
Here comes the moon, the moon, the moon, the moon, the moon.
God's gift I see that's moving up there into the night
Though dark the mirror in the sky reflects us our light:
Looks like a little brother to the sun
Or mother to the stars at night
And here it is and here it comes
Here comes the moon, the moon, the moon, the moon, the moon.
Breath is always taken when it's new
Enhance upon the clouds around it
Yes it is and here it comes
Here comes the moon, the moon, the moon.

George Harrison | Hong Kong Blues | /g/george+harrison/hong+kong+blues_20059152.html | It's the story of a very unfortunate coloured man
Who got arrested down in old Hong Kong
He got twenty years' privilege taken away from him
When he kicked old Buddha's gong
And now he's poppin' the piano just to raise the
price
Of a ticket to the land of the free
Well, he says his home's in 'Frisco where they
send the rice
But it's really in Tennessee
That's why he says
I need someone to love me
Need somebody to carry me home to San
Francisco
And bury my body there
I need someone to lend me a fifty-dollar bill
and then
I'll leave Hong Kong far behind me
For happiness once again
Won't somebody believe
I've a yen to see that Bay again
Everytime I try to leave
Sweet opium won't let me fly away
I need someone to love me
Need somebody to carry me home to San
Francisco
And bury my body there
That's the story of a very unfortunate coloured man
Who got arrested down in old Hong Kong
He got twenty years' privilege taken away from him
When he kicked old Buddha's gong.

George Harrison | I Want To Tell You | /g/george+harrison/i+want+to+tell+you_20059126.html | I want to tell you
My head is filled with things to say
When you're here
All those words, they seem to slip away
When I get near you
The games begin to drag me down
It's all right
I'll make you maybe next time around
But if I seem to act unkind
It isn't me, it's just my mind
That is confusing things
I want to tell you
I feel hung up and I don't know why
But I don't mind
I could wait forever, I've got time, I've got time
Sometimes I wish I knew you well
Then I could speak my mind and tell you
Maybe you'd understand
I want to tell you
I feel hung up and I don't know why
I don't mind
I could wait forever, I've got time
I've got time
I've got time
I've got time

Babe, I couldn't even find the door
I couldn't even see the floor
I'd be sad and blue, if not for you
If not for you
Babe, the night would see me wide awake
The day would surely have to break
It would not be new, if not for you
If not for you, my sky would fall
Rain would gather, too
Without your love I'd be nowhere at all
I'd be lost, if not for you
If not for you
The winter would hold no spring
Couldn't hear a robin sing
I just wouldn't have a clue, if not for you
If not for you, my sky would fall
Rain would gather, too
Without your love I'd be nowhere at all
I'd be lost, if not for you
If not for you
The winter would hold no spring
Couldn't hear a robin sing
I just wouldn't have a clue, if not for you

George Harrison | It Takes A Lot To Laugh | /g/george+harrison/it+takes+a+lot+to+laugh_20631795.html | Well, I ride on a mailtrain, baby,
Can't buy a thrill.
I've been up all night, baby,
Leanin' on the window sill.
If I die
On top of the hill
And if I don't make it,
You know my baby will.
Don't the moon look good, mama,
Shinin' down through the trees?
Don't the brakeman look good, mama,
Flagging down the "Double E"?
Don't the sun look good
Goin' down over the sea?
Don't my gal look fine
When she's comin' after me?
Wintertime is coming,
The windows are filled with frost.
I went to tell everybody,
But I could not get across.
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby,
I don't wanna be your boss.
Don't say I never warned you
If your train gets lost.

George Harrison | It's What You Value | /g/george+harrison/its+what+you+value_20059003.html | Someone's driving a 450
And his friends are so wild
They're still in their stick shifties
But they feel they have much more style
But I've found . . .
It's all up to what you value
Down to where you are
It all swings on the pain you've gone through
Getting where you are
It's all up to what you value
In your motor car
It all rests on what it's cost you
Getting where you are
It's what you value
Someone's driving a 6-wheeler
Seems the world is all blurred
Knows he's in a show stealer
With a sound that's uncompared
And I've found
It's all up to what you value
Down to where you are
It all swings on the pain you're gone through
Getting where you are
It's all up to what you value
In your motor car
It all rests on what it cost's you
Getting where you are
It's what you value.

I could try to live through this day only
Not deal with all life's problems

George Harrison | Just Like A Woman | /g/george+harrison/just+like+a+woman_20059070.html | Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand inside the rain
Evrybody knows
That babys got new clothes
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls.
She takes just like a woman
And she makes love just like a woman
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl.
Queen mary, she's my friend
Yes, I believe I'll go see her again
Nobody has to guess
That baby can't be blessed
Till she sees finally that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls.
She takes just like a woman
She makes love just like a woman
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl.
It was raining from the first
And I was dying there of thirst
So I came in here
And your long-time curse hurts
But what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here
Aint it clear that
That I just can't fit
Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
But when we meet again
Introduced as friends
Please don't let on that you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world.
Ah, you fake just like a woman, yeah you do and
You make love just like a woman, yeah and
You ache just like a woman
But you break just like a little girl.

So deep this feeling that I have for you
Your eyes pierce through my heart
Your smile tears me apart
I knew it, it's so true
I'll never get over you
You touch me making my heart race
So much was written on your face
I knew when you arrived
That no words could describe
What your love made me do
I'll never get over you
Girl, you're so much heart and soul
Girl, was a moonlit night you came into my life
And now this feeling has grown
And if you leave me alone I know
I'll never get over you
So hide the moments when I feel blue
You warm the coldest feet
Can cool me in the heart
And all though love was new
I'll never get over you
My understanding grew
But I'll never get over, never get over you

That Id come running to you in the end
I thought that you were on your own
And now I find youre not alone
Ill see you through the rain
Through the heartache and pain
It hurts like never before
Youre not alone any more
You always said that I would know someday
Just how it feels when your love walks away
I let you down I let you go
I lost you, how was I to know
Ill see you through the rain
Through the heartache and pain
It hurts like never before
Youre not alone any more
I never knew I could feel this way
I never could see past yesterday
You feel that everything is gone
I feel it too, youre not alone
Ill see you through the rain
Through the heartache and pain
It hurts like never before
Youre not alone any more

George Harrison | Old Brown Shoe | /g/george+harrison/old+brown+shoe_20059130.html | I want a love that's right
Right is only half of what's wrong
I want a short-haired girl
Who sometimes wears it twice as long
Now I'm stepping out this old brown shoe
Oh, baby I'm in love with you
So glad you came here
It won't be the same now I'm telling you
You know you picked me up
From where some try to drag me down
And when I see your smile
Replacing every thoughtless frown
Got me escaping from the zoo
Oh, baby I'm in love with you
So glad you came here
It won't be the same now I'm telling you
If I'll grow up I'll be a singer
Wear rings on every finger
Not worrying what they or you say
Live and love and maybe someday
Who knows baby you may comfort me, yeah
I may appear to be imperfect
But my love is something you can't reject
Changing faster than the weather
You and me should get together
Who knows baby you may comfort me
I want the love of yours
To miss that love is something I'd hate
I'll make an early start
I'm making sure that I'm not late
For your sweet tough lip I'm in the queue
Oh, baby I'm in love with you
So glad you came here
It won't be the same now I'm telling you
So glad you came here
It won't be the same now I'm telling you
So glad you came here
It won't be the same now when I'm with you, oh yeah, yeah

And hang around my door
Woman, I've done my best

George Harrison | Rising Sun | /g/george+harrison/rising+sun_20308456.html | On the street of villains taken for a ride
You can have the devil as a guide
Crippled by the boundaries, programmed into guilt
'Til your nervous system starts to tilt
In a room of mirrors you can see for miles
But everything that's there is in disguise
Every word you've uttered and every thought you've had
Is all inside your file the good and the bad
But in the rising sun you can feel your life begin
Universe at play inside your DNA
You're a billion years old today
Oh the rising sun and the place it's coming from
Is inside of you and now your payment's overdue
Oh the rising sun, Oh the rising sun
Oh the avenue of sinners, I have been employed
Working there 'til I was near destroyed
I was almost a statistic inside a doctor's case
When I heard the messenger from inner space
He was sending me a signal that for so long I had ignored
But he held on to my umbilical cord
Until the ghost of memory trapped in my body mind
Came out of hiding to become alive
And in the rising sun you can hear your life begin
And it's hear and there nowhere and everywhere
Though it's atmosphere is rare
Oh the rising sun and the place that it's coming from
Is inside of me and now I feel it constantly
Oh the rising sun, Oh the rising sun
And in the rising sun you can feel your life begin
Universe at play inside your DNA
You're a billion years old today
Oh the rising sun and the place it's coming from
Is inside of you, now your payment's overdue
Oh the rising sun

George Harrison | Save The World | /g/george+harrison/save+the+world_20059154.html | We've got to save the world
Someone else may want to use it
So far we've seen
This planet's rape, how we've abused it
We've got to save the world
The Russians have the biggest share
With their long fingers everywhere
And now they've bombs in outer space
With laser beams and atomic waste
Rain forest chopped for paper towels
One acre gone in every hour
Our birds and wildlife all destroyed
To keep some millionaires employed
We've got to save the whale
Greenpeace they've tried to diffuse it
But dog food salesmen
Persist on kindly to harpoon it
We've got to save the world
The armament consortium
They're selling us plutonium
Now you can make your own H-bomb
Right in the kitchen with your mom
The nuclear power that costs you more
Than anything you've known before
The half-wit's answer to a need
For cancer, death, destruction, greed
We've got to save the world
Someone's children they may need it
So far we've seen
The big business of extinction bleed it
We've got to save the world
We're at the mercy of so few
With evil hearts determined to
Reduce this planet into hell
Then find a buyer and make quick sale
To end upon a happy note
Like trying to make concrete float
Is very simple knowing that
God in your heart lives
We've got to save the world
Someone else may want to use it
It's time you knew
How close we've come
We're gonna lose it
We gotta save, we gotta save
We gotta save the world.

And it's gonna be good
She better not leave me
And go out to Hollywood
She got the best pudding in the neighborhood
She's my baby
She can drive a truck
She can drive a train (my baby, ma-ma my baby)
She can even drive an aeroplane
She's so good to look at in the rain
She's my baby
She's comin' down the sidewalk
She's stumblin through the door
She's coming home from places she's never been before
She sits down on the sofa
She poors herself a drink
Says, "honey, honey, honey ain't no time to think"
My baby
My baby
My baby
She's got a body for business
Got a head for sin
She knocks me over like a bowling pin
She came home last night and said
"Honey, honey, honey it's hard to get ahead."
My baby
My baby
She can build a boat
She can make it float (My baby, ma-ma my baby)
She can play my guitar
Note for note
She likes to stick her tongue right down my throat
She's my baby
My baby
My baby
My baby (repeat and fade)

George Harrison | Simply Shady | /g/george+harrison/simply+shady_20059084.html | Somebody brought the juicer
I thought I'd take a sip
Came off the rails so crazy
My senses took a dip
Before the bottle hit the floor
And I'd had time to think
I was blinded by desire
The elephant turned pink
The rest is simply shady
It's all been done before
But it doesn't make life simple
That's for sure
You may think about a lady
Cause yourself a minor war
And your life won't be so easy anymore
No sooner had I sown it
When I began to reap
I was torn from shallow water
And plunged into the deep
And as I started drowning
I clung onto a straw
That somehow kept me floating
While my madness craved for more
The rest is simply shady
It's all been done and more
But it doesn't make life easy
That's for sure
A pebble in the ocean
Must cause some kind of stir
And witnessed by the silence
Will reach from here to there
The action that I've started
Sometime I'll have to face
My influence in motion
Rebounding back through space
The rest is simply shady
It's all been done before
But it doesn't make life simple
That's for sure
You may think of Sexy Sadie
Let her in through your front door
And your life won't be so easy anymore

Now all that's left is to
Find yourself a new band
We're gonna play the sue me, sue
You blues
We're gonna play the sue me, sue
You blues
Hold the block on money flow
Move it into joint escrow
Court receiver, laughs, and thrills
But in the end we just pay those
Lawyers theit bills
When you serve me
And I serve you
Swing your partners, all get screwed
Bring your lawyer

Get together, and we could have
A bad time

What he's saying I don't really know
Seems he's lost some stocks and shares
Stops and stares
He's afraid I know
That's the way it goes
There's a man talking of the promised land
He'll acquire it with some Krugerrand
Subdivide and deal it out
Feel his clout
He can stoop so low
And that's the way it goes
There's an actor who hopes to fit the bill
Sees a shining city on a hill
Step up close and see he's blind
Wined and dined
All he has is pose
And that's the way it goes
There's a fire that burns away the lies
Manifesting in the spiritual eye
Though you won't understand the way I feel
You conceal, all there is to know
That's the way it goes

Doesn't really matter if we start to make some changes, oh

George Harrison | The Devil's Been Busy | /g/george+harrison/the+devils+been+busy_20059199.html | While youre strolling down the fairway
Showing no remorse
Glowing from the poisons
Theyve sprayed on your golf course
While youre busy sinking birdies
And keeping your scorecard
The devils been busy in your back yard
Steaming down the highway
With your trucks of toxic waste
Where you gonna hide it
In the outer space?
You don't know what youre doing
Or what you have to guard
The devils been busy in your back yard
Sometimes you think youre crazy
But you know youre only mad
Sometimes youre better off not knowing
How much youve been had
You see your second cousin
Wasted in a fight
You say he had it coming
You couldn't do it right
Youre in a western movie, playing the part
The devils been busy in your back yard
Sometimes they say youre wicked
But you know that can't be bad
Sometimes youre better off not knowing
Itll only make you sad
Theyre coming down picadilly
Dripping at the dash
Wasting sticky willy
Covering him with their cash
They just might not have noticed, theyve been beating him so hard
And the devils been busy in your back yard
Devils been busy in your back yard
Devils been busy in your back yard

A treasure of the world
A child, watching it grow
And with all the love will bring unknown delight

Wake up my love
And let it in
Well you know it's me out here
Can't give up now let us make that clear
All I've had's the run around
Though I'm barking like some hound
I want your love
Wake up my love
And let it in
I want your love
Wake up my love
And let it in
My life's been so many ways
Too much darkness gets me crazed
All around us people fight
Christ I'm looking for some light
Inside your love
Wake up my love
And let it in
I don't have no friends of mine
Who can swing me down that vine
Not much sense in what I do
That is why I'm calling you
Inside my love
Wake up my love
And let it in
I want your love
Wake up my love
And let it in
I want your love
Wake up my love
And let it in

George Harrison
What I feel, I can't say
But my love is there for you anytime of day
But if it's not love that you need
Then I'll try my best to make everything succeed
Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side
What I know, I can do
If I give my love now to everyone like you
But if it's not love that you need
Then I'll try my best to make everything succeed
Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side
Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side
What I feel, I can't say
But my love is there for you any time of day
But if it's not love that you need
Then I'll try my best to make everything succeed
Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side
Oh tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side
What is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side
Oh tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me who am I without you by my side

George Jones | 50,000 Names | /g/george+jones/50000+names_20150706.html | There are teddy bears and high school rings
And old photographs that mamas bring
That daddies with their young boys, playing ball.
There's combat boots that he used to wear,
When he was sent over there.
There's 50,000 names carved in the wall
There's cigarettes, and theres cans of beer
And notes that say I miss you dear
And children who don't say anything at all.
There's purple hearts and packs of gum
Fatherless daughters and fatherless sons
And there's 50,000 names carved in the wall
They come from all across this land
In pickup trucks and mini vans
Searching for a boy from long ago
They scan the wall and find his name
The teardrops fall like pouring rain
And silently they leave a gift and go
There's stars of David and rosary beads
And crucifixion figurines
And flowers of all colors large and small
There's a Boy Scout badge and a merit pin
Little American flags waving in the wind
And there's 50,000 names carved in the wall.

George Jones | A Day In The Life Of A Fool | /g/george+jones/a+day+in+the+life+of+a+fool_20839925.html | Morning comes and I'm alone ...
It's been a year since you've been gone
But it seems like yesterday ,you said goodbye
I'm finding ways to pass the time ,so I won't lose my mind
But my every waking hour I think of you
That's just a day in the life of a fool
The one who's holding out for only you
Knowing all along your love for me is true
It's just a day in the life of a fool
You would think I'd learn by now , to forget it all some how .
But my favorite memories were made with you
So every moment that I have , I live them in the past
Even though there?s no way back to where we were
That's just a day in the life of a fool
The one who's holding out for only you
Knowing all along your love for me is true
It's just a day in the life of a fool
It's just a day in the life of a fool

George Jones | A Little Bitty Tear | /g/george+jones/a+little+bitty+tear_20809460.html | When you said you were leaving tomorrow that today was our last day
I said there would be no sorrow then I'd laugh when you walked away
But a little bitty tear let me down spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not to make a frown oh but a little bitty tear let me down
I said I would laugh when you left me full of funny as you went out the door
That I'd have another was a waiting yes to wave goodbye as you go
But a little bitty tear let me down...
Everything went like I planned it and I really put on quite a show
And in my heart I felt I could stand it till you walked with your grip through
the door
And a little bitty tear let me down...
A little bitty tear let me down a little bitty tear let me down

George Jones | Ain't Love A Lot Like That | /g/george+jones/aint+love+a+lot+like+that_20840426.html | Well, a twister tore the roof off a grocery store
Blew an Idaho potato through the hardwood floor
Twirled granny's apron up around her head
The cat's still missin' and the dog is dead.
Well, ain't love a lot lot that
Ain't love a lot like that
Unconditional, unpredictable
Ain't love a lot like that?
Just like Moses and the Red Sea water
A little bit of faith and the ring I bought her
I hit my knees and she took my hand
And she lead my heart to the promised land.
Ain't love a lot lot that
Ain't love a lot like that
Unconditional, unpredictable
Ain't love a lot like that?
Well, the honeymoon's over and the work begun
My baby say I'm gettin' on her nerves again
One false move and an angry shout
I'm sleepin' all alone on the fold out couch.
Ain't love a lot lot that
Ain't love a lot like that
Unconditional, unpredictable
Ain't love a lot like that?
Ain't love a lot that
Now ain't love a lot like that
Unconditional, unpredictable
Ain't love a lot like that?
Unconditional, unpredictable
Ain't love a lot like that?

Ain't love been wonderful, oh, ain't it been good.
We walk through life side by side
We found the door to happiness open wide
And folks who gather now right where we stand
And love's been heaven here on earth in every ways.

It seems the problem always are here to stay
But we'll keep holdin' on till the very end
And we'll get by no matter what shape the world is in.

Unless I can be the one that says I do
For I want to show you just how much I love you

George Jones | Almost Persuaded | /g/george+jones/almost+persuaded_20240050.html | Last night all alone in a barroom
Met a girl with a drink in her hand.
She had ruby red lips, coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any man.
Then she came and sat down at my table,
And as she placed her soft hands in mine,
I found myself wanting to kiss her
For temptation was flowing like wine.
And I was almost persuaded to strip myself of my pride.
Almost persuaded to push my conscience aside.
Then we danced and she whispered, "I need you!"
"Take me away from here and be my man."
Then I looked into her eyes and I saw it:
The reflection of my wedding band.
And I was almost persuaded to let strange lips lead me on.
Almost persuaded but your sweet love made me stop and go home.
Last night all alone in a barroom
Met a guy with a drink in his hand.
He had bay blue eyes, coal black hair
And a smile that a girl understands.
Then he came and sat down at my table,
And as he placed his hands over mine,
I found my self wanting to kiss him
For temptation was flowing like wine.
And I was almost persuaded to strip myself of my pride.
Almost persuaded to push my conscience aside.

George Jones | Amazing Grace | /g/george+jones/amazing+grace_20268836.html | Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found was blind but now I see
Twas grace that taught my heart to fear and grace my fears relived
How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed
Through many dangers toils and snares I have already come
Tis grace that has brought me safe thus far and grace will lead me on
When we've been there ten thousand years bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise than when we first begun
And than when we first begun

It was easy said the night we parted
That we'd forget we'd ever met
I haven't forgotten, I wonder if you have
Or if your heart is full of regret.
As long as I live if it be one hour
Or if it be one hundred years
I'll keep remembering forever and ever
I'll love you dear, as long as I live.
Oh, I never thought that night we parted
That life alone would be oh, so bad
I know it sounds funny but I can't forget you
You're the only joy that I've ever had.
As long as I live if it be one hour
Or if it be one hundred years
I'll keep remembering forever and ever
I'll love you dear, as long as I live.

George Jones | Baby, There's Nothing Like You | /g/george+jones/baby+theres+nothing+like+you_20802936.html | I've crossed the high and mighty creek
That spans the San Farcisco Bay
Saw the sun set in the west
In an non forgetful way
Sailed the white Pacific Ocean
While it was in it's darkest blue
But they still have nothing like you.
I've seen the bright lights of broadway
In old New York town
Saw a star light up the night
As it came tumblin' down
And the great Niagra Falls
Well I've seen them too
Ah, but baby, there's nothin' like you.
I've seen the winter day turn warm
And the roses start to bud
Saw the risin' of the moon
Through a cloud red as blood
Saw a rainbow of all colors
When the storm and rain was through.
Ah, but baby there's nothin' like you.
Yes I've been most everywhere
Done everthing there is to do
Ah, but baby, there's nothin' like you

The honey bees are gonna be hummin'
Guitar strings are gonna be strummin'

Happy wheels are gonna be turnin'
Flames of love are gonna be burnin'
When I'm back in my baby's arms again

No more tears are gonna be fallin'
I done heard my true love callin'
Open arms are waitin' yonder 'round the bend
Rivers of honey are gonna be flowin'
Big sweet flowers are gonna be growin'
When I'm back in my baby's arms again
The voice of love is gonna be talkin'
Hand in hand we're gonna be walkin'
When I'm back in my baby's arms again
Big ol' swings are gonna be swingin'
Water springs are gonna be springin'
When I'm back in my baby's arms again

Oh, honey
Back in my baby's arms again

George Jones | Big Harlan Taylor | /g/george+jones/big+harlan+taylor_20153445.html | [Chorus]
Oh the ways of the world, and the wants of a woman
If I figured them all out 'twould take many years
I once had a sweetheart, the fairest of maidens
She out shined all others that I'd known by far
I had a friend, a big fella, named big Harlan Taylor
Harlan had a rubber-tired, new shiny car
[Chorus]
By the wants of a woman she fell for big Harlan
I tried, but in vain, for to take my own life
Suddenly I had lost all my will to keep livin'
She lost her desire to become my young wife
[Chorus]
I wanted revenge and waylaid for big Harlan
Then I started wonderin' what good would it do
If a rubber-tired, new shiny car's her ambition
Then she can just have it and big Harlan, too
[Chorus]
If I figured them all out

George Jones | Boat Of Life | /g/george+jones/boat+of+life_20825628.html | My friend, is the going rough with troubled seas around
To angry when you set your soul and dark clouds on you frown
Have you ever looked for bread and only found a stone
But it's because you're paddling your boat of life alone.
Is the raft you once had charted now both blurred and marred
Is you soul and body weary, the task of rowin' hard
Have you ever looked for joy and disappointment known
But it's because you're paddling your boat of life alone.
My friend there is one who knows your every fault and sin
And he knows your trouble and your whole dear life of sin
So why not call on Jesus, He'll help you safely on
Oh, my friend, it's foolish to paddle all alone

With lovers here and everywhere we don't care enough to try
Why couldn't all the hurt we're feeling now have passed us by
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?
And of all the hearts in all the world, why yours and mine
There's so many places love could die, we must leave the earth for a time
Oh, but it's in our hearts and it's in our bed and it's even in your eyes
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?
Somewhere out there there's lovers who want to be free
Why couldn't love have died with them instead of here with you and me
Oh, but it's pitiful how all these tears won't bring it back to life
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?
Oh, but it's pitiful how all these tears won't bring it back to life
Oh, couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

The echo flowing softly through the hills of silent night
All the shinny decorations on the big tree in the church yard
Will make the folks for miles around sing I Saw the Light.
We're gonna have a country christmas
We're gonna Christmas the old time away
We'll let the church bells ring as we gather 'round to sing
And show our love for Jesus as we pray.
We'll have lots of homemade candy and presents for the children
And let the elders grace the table filled with the food and wine
There's not a better way to say happy birthday Jesus
Than to have a good old gospel singing country Christmas time.
We're gonna have a country christmas
We're gonna Christmas the old time away
We'll let the church bells ring as we gather round to sing
And show our love for Jesus as we pray.
Jesus as we pray...

And quite a little man
So we spell out the words
We don't want him to understand
Like T-O-Y or maybe S-you-are P-are-I-S-E
But the words we're hiding from him now
Tear the heart right out of me.
Our D-I-V-O-are-C-E, becomes final today
Me and little J-O-E will be goin' away
I love you both and this will be pure H-E double L for me
Oh, I wish that we could stop this D-I-V-O-are-C-E.
Watch him smile, he thinks it Christmas
Or his 5th Birthday
And he thinks C-you-S-T-O-D-Y spells fun or play
I spell out all the hurtin' words
And turn my head when I speak
'Cause I can't spell away this hurt
That's drippin' down my cheek.
Our D-I-V-O-are-C-E, becomes final today

George Jones | Divorce Or Destroy | /g/george+jones/divorce+or+destroy_20839289.html | We've lived together for a long time
But now the love is gone we once knew
We're old enough to know we can't live life this way
And young enough to start with somebody new.
So it's divorce or destroying each other
Which one of the two should we chose
You say in your heart there's no love left for me
And in my heart there's no love left for you.
We stay together for the children
Soon the children will be grown and be gone
Yet we keep on destroying each other
And to live life this way just must be wrong,
So it's divorce or destroying each other
Which one of the two should we chose
You say in your heart there's no love left for me
And in my heart there's no love left for you.
In my heart, no love left for you

George Jones | Don't Leave Without Taking Your Silver | /g/george+jones/dont+leave+without+taking+your+silver_20823741.html | You said I'm taking everything that is mine right down to the clock on the
wall. I watched as you packed up your things. Then you turned and said, "Well,
that's all." Oh but you've overlooked just one item. It's as much yours as the
clothes that you wear.
Don't leave without taking your silver. You left it right here in my hair.
It's yours, for I didn't have it the moment you captured my soul. First a
little streak showed then slowly it wove it's way right in with the gold. I
don't see how you overlooked it. For we both know that you put it there.
Don't leave without taking your silver. You left it right here in my hair. No
don't leave without taking your silver. You left it right here in my hair.

But don't love me then act as though we've never kissed
Don't touch me if you don't love me, sweetheart.
Don't give me something, oh, that you might take away

On the outskirts of town
And if my baby don't get home tonight
I'm a-gonna lower her down
'Cause it ain't right
Lord, no, everything ain't right

She was really on a spree
She was makin' love to some other guy
Right there in front of me
That ain't right
Uh-huh, no, everything ain't right
But I'm a-gonna buy her pretty things
And try to change her mind
'Cause I gotta have her with me tonight
I need her lovin' all of the time
My heart ain't right
Lord, no, everything ain't right
I could build the highest bridges
Over waters deep and wide
To have her love back with me again
It would ease this pain inside
The world ain't right
Uh-huh, no, everything ain't right
And I find myself in darkness
You took away the light
And I know there's never been a fool
Like me, before tonight
That ain't right
Lord, no, everything ain't right
But I think I'll write my will out
And sign it before too long
You ain't a-gonna spend my money, uh-huh
Not after this poor boy's gone
That wouldn't be right
Lord, no, everything ain't right

George Jones | Faded Love | /g/george+jones/faded+love_20193478.html | As I look at the letter that you wrote to me it's you that I am thinking of
As I read the lines that to me were so sweet I remember our faded love
I miss you darling more and more every day as heaven would miss the stars
above
With every heartbeat I still think of you and remember our faded love
I think of the past and all the pleasures we've had as I watch the mating of
the dove
It was in the springtime that you said goodbye I remember our faded love
I miss you darling more and more

George Jones | Flowers For Mama | /g/george+jones/flowers+for+mama_20196503.html | FLOWERS FOR MAMA
WRITERS EDDIE NOACK, CINDY WALKER, AL RUMLEY
Papa brought flowers for mama today
And all the grown children, but it's not mother's day
I don't have no money, not even a dime
But I brought mama flowers like I have all the time.
Everyday I pick flowers from this pretty hill
A small box of Daisies and a few Daffodils
I bring them to mama at the end of the day
And say flowers for mama, here's mama's bouquet.
They brighten her face and she holds me close
She'd say they are more precious than a beautiful rose
And she wore a smile sweeter than millions of flowers
A smile that I'll carry through life's darkest hours.
Spoken:
Now mama was lying there, yes, they tell me she passed away
And she was surrounded by flowers that out-shined my bouquet
I know mine aren't fancy but still all the while
They were placed in her hand and I know I saw mama smile.
Sang:
Flowers for mama I picked them today
Not very much, just a simple bouquet
Mom wasn't so fancy but up there above
She's the prettiest flower in God's garden of love.

George Jones | Give Away Girl | /g/george+jones/give+away+girl_20846124.html | Not long ago while dancin'
Our eyes by chance did meet
Though you were with your boyfriend
You swept me off my feet.
So foolishly as I cut in
To hope for new romance
I hardly had you in my arms
When someone sought your glance.
Your just a giveaway, giveaway, giveaway girl
You're careless with your charms
Just like a giveaway, giveaway, giveaway girl
You'll never get in anyone's arms.
You're everybody's sweetheart
You never stick to one
You'll play the field forever
As long as you have fun.
You'll take almost and bandit
You love variety
Whoever might be handy
You'll fall for stupidly.
Your just a giveaway, giveaway, giveaway girl
You're careless with your charms
Just like a giveaway, giveaway, giveaway girl
You'll never get in anyone's arms.
You give your kisses freely
You throw your heart away
You never stopped to think
That someday you will have to pay.
But by the time you wake up
You're best days will be gone
The sweetest words that you will hear
Will be, please leave me along.
Your just a giveaway, giveaway, giveaway girl
You're careless with your charms
Just like a giveaway, giveaway, giveaway girl
You'll never get in anyone's arms.

George Jones | Give My Love To Rose | /g/george+jones/give+my+love+to+rose_20846116.html | I found him by the railroad tracks this morning
I could see that he was nearly dead
I knelt down beside him and I listened
Just to hear the words the dying fellow said
He said, "They let me out of prison back in Frisco"
For 10 long years I've paid for what I'd done
I was trying to get back to Louisiana
Just to see my Rose and get to know my son
Won't you tell them I said thanks, for waiting for me
And tell my boy to help his mama at home
Tell my Rose to try to find another
For it ain't right that she should live alone
Mr., here's the bag with all my money
It won't last them long the way it goes
God bless you for finding me this morning
Now don't forget to give my love to Rose
Give my love to Rose, won't you Mr.
Take her all my money, tell her buy some pretty clothes
Tell my boy that daddy's so proud of him
And don't forget to give my love to Rose

George Jones | Glad To Let Her Go | /g/george+jones/glad+to+let+her+go_20205432.html | You took her from my side
The day you took her from me
And you though that it would hurt my pride
But there were things you failed to see.
You thought you stole away her love
But I want the world to know
It's the truth she turned her back on me
But I was glad to let her go.
Yes, you thought that you were foolin' me
And even though it wasn't right
Let me thank you for you set me free
From a lot of sleepless nights.
My love for her had died
Yes, it was over long ago
And it's true she walked away with you
But I was glad to let her go.
Yes, you knew that you were cheating me
And even though it wasn't right
Let me thank you for you set me free
From a lot of sleepless nights.
My love for her had died
Yes, it was over long ago
And it's true she walked away with you
But I was glad to let her go...

George Jones | Good Ones And Bad Ones | /g/george+jones/good+ones+and+bad+ones_20204093.html | Some come from Heaven and some crawl from Hell
And the good fight the bad for your soul
But it's hard to tell the lie from the truth
When you find one that easy to hold
There's no way of knowing which one you've been lovin'
Till you leave 'em or you lose her for good
By then it's too late, you just mark it off to fate
Either way, you end up a fool
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
When the good makes you feel like you should
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
When the bad makes you feel just as good
A good one will love you for all that she's worth
A bad one will take you for more
A good one will cherish the key to your heart
And a bad one, a key to your door
A good one will love you for richer or poorer
But that makes the bad'er one worse
A good one will love you till death do you apart
And a bad one makes sure you go first
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
When the good makes you feel like you should
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
When the bad makes you feel just as good
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
When the good makes you feel like you should
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
When the bad makes you feel just as good

Because it's all i've-
All that I've got.

There's money in your feet,
Gimme what you got.

George Michael | Ain't Nobody | /g/george+michael/aint+nobody_20059351.html | Captured effortlesly. That's the way it was.
It happens so naturely. I did not know it was love.
The next thing I felt was you. Holding me close
What was I gonna do. I let myself go.
And now we fly through the stars.
Want this night will last for ever.
I've been waiting for you. It's been so long.
I knew just what I would do when I heard your song.
I fill my heart with your kiss. It gave me freedom.
You knew I could not resist. I needed someone.
And now we're flying through the stars.
I hope this night lasts for ever.
Ain't nobody (Nobody)
Loves me better (Loves me better)
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way (Nobody)
Ain't nobody (Nobody)
Loves me better (Than you)
I wait for nighttime to come to bring you to me.
Can't believe I'm the one. I was so lonely.
I feel like noone can feel. I must be dreamin'.
I want this dream to be real. I'm in this feeling.
I make my whish upon a star
And hope this night will last for ever.
Ain't nobody (Nobody)
Loves me better (Loves me better)
Makes me happy This way
Makes me feel this way (Nobody)
Ain't nobody (Nobody baby)
Loves me better
Ain't nobody
Loves me better (Than you)
I wish you put your arms around me.
Yeah you put your arms around me.
I can't resist this sweet surrender.
Oh, my night's so warm and tender.
We stare into each others eyes.
And what we seek is no surprise.
I've got a feeling most would treasure.
And our love's so deep we cannot measure

George Michael | An Easier Affair | /g/george+michael/an+easier+affair_20580284.html | Here comes one for the ladies
For the ones who love me
To think I thought I could be some kind of family man
I told myself I was straight
But I shouldn't have worried
'Cos my Maker had a better plan for me
And I'm dancing with the freaks now
I'm havin', I'm havin' so much fun
What you sow is what you reap now
I'll do my dance with everyone
I've been getting too much Sun
(Yes I'm dancin' with the freaks now)
We're havin', we're havin' too much fun for them
Look who's talking Guilty feet now'
Well let me tell you people
It's an easier affair
Not living my life with other people on my mind
No, got nothing to hide from anyone
Yes, I'm walking on new air
Just living my life
Better believe I'm gonna get what's mine
See I don't have the time
For the haters
And all the time that I wasted
How careless of me
Too young and stupid to see
I put my life in their hands
(Gonna look for Cupid, man)
Oh, and I know that they want me to hate them
There's no hurry
I'll just have to be the bigger man
Dancin' with the freaks now
I'm havin', I'm havin' so much fun
What you sow is what you reap now
I'll do my dance with everyone
I've been getting too much Sun
If I turn the other cheek now
Would that be, would that be too much fun for them'
Look who's talking
Guilty feet now'
Well let me tell you people
It's an easier affair
Not livin' my life with other people on my mind
No, got nothing to hide from anyone
'Cos I'm walking on new air
Just living my life
Better believe I'm gonna get what's mine
See I don't have the time for the haters
Don't let them tell you who you are is not enough
Don't let them tell you that it's wrong
Or that you won't find love
Don't let them use my life to put your future down
Don't let them tell you that happiness can't be found
For my life
Take it to the streets
There are stories you can keep
They're just passing you by
Don't let them tell you who you are is not enough
Don't let them tell you that it's wrong
Or that you won't find love
Don't let them use my life to put your future down
Don't let them tell you that happiness can't be found

The god you are trying to reach is not available to take your call)
Mama's gone and got herself a new man
It's a shame,
He's the same
Mama please please, stop pretending
This time, you won't end in tears
I find myself, with a new daddy
My mama needs love you see
Guess she don't wanna be lonely
And nobody's keeping score
I don't say hi to those guys no more
Said mama can't you feel me
Holding my breath as they knock, knock, knock on our door
You're just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels,
The same, the same
Johnny's gone and got himself a new man
He gets laid, every day
Johnny please please, stop pretending
This time, may just end in tears
Take care of yourself
Because you won't find 'daddy'
When you're popping those pills
Oh Johnny, is the danger just part of the thrill?
And nobody's keeping score
Johnny those guys that you shake it for
I said "Johnny can't you hear them
Saying mama knows best as they knock, knock,
Knock on your door"
You're just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, the same, the same
Taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, wheels, wheels
Taking your ass to the top of that building
Under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
The same, the same, the same
Pretty girl, little girl, what were you thinking
Just 18 at the time
You were a mother and child, at the same time
You were a mother and child
So young and fucked up baby
Always higher than a child should see
Forgive me
To the top of that building
Under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, wheels, wheels
Mama don't you let him stay
From bastard to loser, hurt you, used you in every way,
Mama, don't let him stay, please
Don't let him stay
I said Jesus, Mary, and the Saints above,
Won't you show him love?
I said Jesus, Mary, and the Saints above,
Won't you show him love?

George Michael | December Song (I Dreamed Of Christmas) | /g/george+michael/december+song+i+dreamed+of+christmas_20993496.html | Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
May your every New Year dream come...
Sweet December song
The melody that saved me
On those less than Silent Nights
When snow would fall upon my bed
Like sugar from Jesus
And take me to the day
She could always smile
The Virgin Child would always show you see
Just to save me (Just to save me)
There was always Christmas time
To wipe the year away
I guess that Mum and Dad decided
That the world would have to wait
There was always Christmas time
Jesus came to stay
I could believe in peace on Earth
And I could watch TV all day
So I dreamed of Christmas
Maybe since you've gone
I went a little crazy
God knows they can see the child
But the snow that falls upon my bed
That loving I needed
Falls every single day
For each and every child
The Virgin smiles for all to see
But you kept her from me
There was always Christmas time
To wipe the year away
I guess that Mum and Dad decided
That the world would have to wait
There was always Christmas time
Jesus came to stay
I could believe in peace on Earth
And I could watch TV all day
And so I dreamed of Christmas
Yes I dreamed like you
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
May your every New Year dream come true

All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
It's much too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when i met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although i search myself, it's always someone else i see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Ladies and gentlemen Mr. Elton John
I can't find
Oh, the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way feel
Don't discard me baby don't
Just because you think i mean you harm
Just because you think i mean you harm, oh
But these cuts i have, cuts i have
They need love
They need love, they need love to help them heal
Oh, don't let the sun go down on me
Although i search myself, it's always someone else i see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
Cause' losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although i search myself, it's always someone else i that see, yeah
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free baby, oh
Cause' losing everything is like the sun going down on me

If I could touch your body
I know not everybody
Has got a body like you, uhh
But I've got to think twice
Before I give my heart away
And I know all the games you play
Because I play them too
Oh but I
Need some time off from that emotion
Time to pick my heart up off the floor
Oh when that love comes down
Without devotion
Well it takes a strong man, baby
But I'm showing you the door
'Cause I gotta have faith
I gotta faith
Because I gotta to have faith faith
I gotta to have faith, faith, faith
Baby
I know you're asking me to stay
Say please, please, please, don't go away
You say I'm giving you the blues
Maybe
You mean every word you say
Can't help but think of yesterday
And another who tied me down to lover boy rules
Before this river
Becomes an ocean
Before you throw my heart back on the floor
Oh baby I reconsider
My foolish notion
Well I need someone to hold me
But I wait for something more
Yes I've gotta have faith
Unh I gotta faith
Because I gotta to have faith, faith, faith
I gotta to have faith, faith, faith
I just got to wait
Because I got to have faith
I gotta have faith
I gotta, gotta, gotta have faith
Before this river
Becomes an ocean
Before you throw my heart back on the floor
Oh baby I reconsider
My foolish notion
Well I need someone to hold me
But I wait for something more
'Cause I've gotta have faith
Unh I gotta faith
Because I gotta to have faith, faith, faith

But you've got the things God gave you
So the music may yet be your saviour
Got to be a way, some way
Got to be some way to make your way to the light (All the girls say)
Got to be some way, today, today, maybe tonight, maybe tonight
And it's always the same. ..
Always the same dreams yeah yeah
Always the same (yes you're movin' up)
You're beautiful, you are, and you know it
You're wasted here, you're a star
In this small town of hand-me-downs who don't even know it
Sometimes it brings you down
Sometimes it eats you up
Sometimes you think that your head's going to blow
It doesn't get better. ..
Don't you know, you've got to go to the city
You've got to reach the other side of the glass
I think you'll make it in the city baby
I think you know that you are more than just
Some fucked up piece of ass
Got to be a way, some way
Got to be some way to make your way to the light (All the boys say)
Got to be some way, today, today, maybe tonight,
They'll see you tonight
And it's always the same
A lways the same
Always the same dreams yeah yeah
Always the same (yes you're movin' up)
Cause you're beautiful (like no other)
Cause you're beautiful (take me, make me)
Cause you're beautiful (maybe tonight, they'll see you tonight)
Beautiful.... Beautiful
And it's no good waiting by the window
It's no good waiting for the sun
Please believe me, the things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no-one
And it's no good. .. Waiting, waiting
And it's no good. .. Waiting
You've got to go to the city
You've got to go to the city,
They're going to find you there
'Cause you're beautiful
'Cause you're beautiful
Sometimes it brings you down
Sometimes it eats you up
Sometimes you think that your head's going to blow and
It doesn't get better. ..
Don't you know, you've got to go to the city
You've got to reach the other side of the glass
I think you'll make it in the city baby
I think you know that you are more than just
Some fucked up piece of ass
More than just...
Sid you've got to think of something
'Cause your job pays you nothing
But you've got the things God gave you
So the music may yet be your saviour
Do you want a saviour, saviour
Say that you do,
You know you're wasted here, wasted here
And there ain't no miracles happening any time soon...

George Michael | Heaven Help Me | /g/george+michael/heaven+help+me_20059371.html | If you want it, you can have it
That's what you said
But I don't want the things that you leave behind
Take the pictures, take the windows and the walls
But, baby, won't you leave me my peace of mind?
Oh, such a waste of time
Oh, such a waste
I still want you, baby
Heaven help me, heaven help me
Talk to strangers, talk to strangers
Heaven help me
Over you
Help me over you
I can't seem to take these changes
Everything reminds my heart of you
Thought the first time was the last time
We'd be here forever
Now I find I'm having to search again
It'll happen
It's gotta happen
Come together
I just wish somebody would tell me when
Oh, such a waste of time
Oh, such a waste
I still want you, baby
Heaven help, heaven help
Heaven, heaven, heaven, help me
Heaven help, heaven help
Heaven, heaven, heaven, help me
You're someone else's lady
So sad without you, darlin'
The gods of love can't help me now
Heaven help, heaven help
Heaven, heaven, heaven, help me

George Michael | I Can't Make You Love Me | /g/george+michael/i+cant+make+you+love+me_20059263.html | Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me
'Cause I can't make you love me If you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart, and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
And I can't make you love me
If you don't
I'll close my eyes and then I won't see
The love you do not feel, when you're holding me
Morning will come, and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then, to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
And I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
And here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no, you won't
And I can't make you love me
If you don't
Ain't no use in you trying
It's no good for me baby without love
All my tears, all these years, everything I believed in
Baby
Oh yeah
Someone's gonna love me

George Michael | If You Were My Woman | /g/george+michael/if+you+were+my+woman_20059376.html | If I were your woman and you were my man,
you'd have no other woman, you'd be weak as a lamb.
If you had the strength to walk out that door,
My love would over rule my sense, and I'd call you back for more,
If I were your woman.
If I were your woman, and you were my man. Um baby.
She tears you down darlin', says you're nothing at all.
But, I'll pick you up darling, when she lets you fall.
You're like a diamond but she treats you like glass.
Yet you beg her to love you, but, me you don't ask.
If I were your woman, If I were your woman.
If I were your woman, here's what I'd do,
I'd never, no, no, stop loving you.
Yeah, yeah, um
Life is so crazy, a love is unkind.
Because she came first, darling, will she hang on your mind?
You're a part of me, and you don't even know it.
I'm what you need, but I'm too afraid to show it.
If I were your woman, If I were your woman,
If I were your woman, here's what I'd do.
Never, no, no, no, stop loving you, ah, yeah.
If I were your woman, here's what I'd do.
Never, never stop loving you if

I'll be your hope, I'll be your pearl
I'll take you halfway 'round the world!
I'll make you rich - I'll make you poor
Just don't use the door
Do it with me...

George Michael | Jesus To A Child | /g/george+michael/jesus+to+a+child_20059295.html | Kindness
In your eyes
I guess
You heard me cry
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child
I'm blessed
I know
Heaven sent
And Heaven stole
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child
And what have I learned
From all this pain
I thought I'd never feel the same
About anyone
Or anything again
But now I know
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there's no hope in sight
Sadness
In my eyes
No one guessed
Or no one tried
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child
Loveless and cold
With your last breath
You saved my soul
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child
And what have I learned
From all these tears
I've waited for you all those years
And just when it began
He took you away
But I still say
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there's no hope in sight
So the words you could not say
I'll sing them for you
And the love we would have made
I'll make it for two
For every single memory
Has become a part of me
You will always be
My love
Well I've been loved
So I know just what love is
And the lover that I kissed
Is always by my side
Oh the lover I still miss
Was Jesus to a child

To live your life the way you wanna be

Will we live or will we die

Shoot bad love so we can
Stop the bleeding

George Michael | Last Christmas | /g/george+michael/last+christmas_20059377.html | Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye
Tell me baby
Do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year
It doesn't surprise me
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I love you" I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you, and your soul of ice
My god I thought you were someone to rely on,
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore me apart
Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore him apart
Maybe next year I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special
