Song lyrics
If your not up to par,
you come as a clown,
you come as you are.
*
I've walked in your shoes,
I've sang the blues,
I come as I am.
I come as I am.
*
If I seem un-enthralled,
in all that you say, don't take it hard.
It's just I heard it before and I'm to tired,
to tired to care.
*
Tired of pushing brooms.
I’m, tired of punching clocks.
I’m tired of you.
I’m tired of saying yes.
I’m tired of looking good.
I’m tired of you, so tired of you,
of you.
*
If your not up to par,
you come as a clown,
you come as you are.
*
I've walked in your shoes,
I've sang the blues,
I come as I am.
I come as I am.
*
Tired of pushing brooms,
I’m, tired of punching clocks,
I’m tired of you.
I’m tired of saying yes,
I’m tired of sounding good.
I’m tired of you, so tired of you
of you,
of you, of you, so tired, of you.
Found My Baby
If I tell you that I love you, would you stay with me tonight
Cause these words they didn’t come easy,
In fact you know they put up quite a fight….
Yes I think I found my baby, ya, ya, ya…
Yes I think I found the one in you…
Yes I think I found my baby, ya, ya, ya,
Cause every thing I hold dear lies in you…
But if I tell you that I’m leaving..
Just before the break of day..ya, ya,
Would you have the strength to keep on…
Keep on holding your love strong for me…ya, ya, ya…
Yes I think I found my baby, ya, ya, ya…
Yes I think I found the one in you…
Yes I think I found my baby, ya, ya, ya,
Cause every thing I hold dear lies in you…
And if I have a story for you…
Would you lend my your ears…
Cause these stories they don’t come often,
In fact they leave as quickly as they come…ya, ya…
Yes I think I found my baby, ya, ya, ya…
Yes I think I found the one in you…
Yes I think I found my baby, ya, ya, ya,
Cause every thing I hold dear lies in you
Yes I think I found my baby, ya, ya, ya…
Yes I think I found the one in you…
Yes I think I found my baby, ya, ya, ya,
Cause every thing I hold dear lies in you…
Me Without You
People are waiting to see,
What’s to become of me…
Spreading their secrets, telling their lies…
It’s all so plain to see..
Baby you don’t know what it means,
Having you right next to me,
Picking me up when I’m keeping me down
Taking it day after day….So…
Baby don’ you know you’re the one..
Who brought me the stars and showed me the sun..
Baby what would I be with out you…
Just a chilled with out laughter is all,
Me with out you, What would I do
Glory, Glory, be…
This all has happened to me…
Taking it slowly, taking my time…
Taking one day at a time…So…
Baby don’ you know you’re the one..
Who brought me the stars and showed me the sun..
Baby what would I be with out you…
Just a chilled with out laughter is all,
If me with out you, what would I do, if me with you.
By The River
Was is you I saw there, by the river’s edge and were you crying, were those tears.
And was it you that brought me, out into the cold, what did you think, I would say….
Did you think I’d say I love you…
Did you think I’d take you in my arm’s,
Did you think I’d say the words to you,
That you would understand, understand.
Do you remember when we were so, young and innocent… Those days are gone yes there gone.
You grew old, I grew gray, but here we are just the same, here today….
Did you think I’d say I love you…
Did you think I’d take you in my arm’s,
Did you think I’d say the words to you,
That you would understand, understand.
Was is you I saw there, by the river’s side and were you crying, were those tears.
And was it you that brought me, out into the cold, what did you think, I would say….
Did you think I’d say I love you…
Did you think I’d take you in my arm’s,
Did you think I’d say the words to you,
That you would understand, understand.
Yes we were meant, we were meant to be,
You and me.
I’m feeling lucky as I walk out her door
Cause I know my baby she’ll call me for more..
Yes I know this, cause she loves me so..
Yes I know this, cause she tells me so..
I wear this necklace not because I look cool
I wear it simply cause I look like a fool..
It don’t matter, cause she loves me so..
It don’t matter, cause she tells me so.
My 54 and I we never come last..
My baby likes it when I step on the gas..
Yes I know this, cause she loves me so..
Yes I know this, cause she loves me so..
Yes I know this, cause she tells me so..
Mile After Mile
See the man, gun in his hand..
He’s got a plan, plan, plan, gonna make his stand.
Worked his last hour, down at the plant
He’s not all right, right, right in his world
Yes he’s tired, of all the lies
So he keeps moving, mile after mile.
Little girl, flesh to the world.
Lipstick too bright, bright, bright for walking the night
Stockings torn now, blood on her lips,
She’s not all right, right, right in her world.
And yes she’s tired, of all the lies
So she keeps moving, mile after mile
Preacher man, can’t understand
All the lies, lies, lies he must hide behind
Where’s the cloth, though it’s tattered and torn,
But he know, knows, knows that it must be worn,
Yes he’s tired, of all the lies….
So he keeps moving, mile after mile.
For granted and for this I'm sorry.
For thinking, thinking you'll always be,
always be there for me....
But who am I,
I'm just some lucky guy.
With issues, issues piled to the sky.
And there not yours to hide anymore...
So give them all back to me,
give them all back, let me try them on for awhile.
Give them all back to me, it's the only way I can see,
the real me.
Remember, remember young innocence.
Where life stood, life stood so very still
even the days drew on and on...
So give them all back to me,
give them all back, let me try them on for awhile.
Give them all back to me, it's the only way I can see,
the real me.
So give them all back to me,
give them all back, let me try them on for awhile.
Give them all back to me, it's the only way I can see,
the real me.
Now if I try,
will you stay by my side.
And if i try,
no more will I hide, no more will I hide
Well I want to write, America's song.
Patriotic like, I'll write the wrongs.
Like apple pie in the window, on a sill,
or playing ball with my friends on the hill.
Well I want to write
Yes I want to write
I want to write America's Song, yes I do oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Now go to church, I'll hum a few bars.
Get reborn, now I can...do no harm.
Just make sure, that I know, what to say,
when I'm standing at the foot of the gate.
Well I want to write
Yes I want to write
I want to write America's Song, yes I do oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
If you think that I'm right, well then I'm wrong
There's no point cause all this is, is just a song.
But I want to write,
Yes I want to write...
I want to write America's Song, yes I do oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Now I want to write, every one's song.
Get it right, or I will get it wrong.
Like apple pie, in the window, on a sill,
or playing ball with my uncle named Phil.
Well I want to write,
Yes I want to write...
I want to write America's Song, yes I do oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Maybe, she got me thinking that it’s maybe.
She got me thinking that I have a chance to get up and dance with her baby.
Crazy, is all I hear, I must be crazy,
that’s all I hear, but I got nothing to lose, going to show her just what crazy can do.
All she had to do was flash me those blues,
to get me thinking something I’m not.
It didn’t take her to long, not even a full song,
to put the rhythm back in my shoes.
So fellas if you don’t mind, tell the band to play on,
cause crazy’s got some dancin to do....
Maybe, she got me thinking that it’s maybe.
She got me thinking that if I have this dance, it could lead to romance, just maybe baby.
Crazy, is all I hear, she must be crazy,
that’s all I hear, but if it’s crazy she is, then maybe she’s just crazy for me.
All she had to do was flash me those blues,
to get me thinking something I’m not.
It didn’t take her to long, not even a full song,
to put the rhythm back in my shoes.
So fellas if you don’t mind, tell the band to take five,
cause soon we won’t be needing these shoes.
All she had to do was flash me those blues,
to get me thinking something I’m not.
It didn’t take her to long, not even a full song,
to put the rhythm back in my shoes.
So fellas if you don’t mind, tell the band to play on,
cause crazy’s got some dancin to do....
Where have you gone friend,
I see you looking at me.
But the light that surrounded you once, has faded away.
Was it the years friend,
of holding back tears,
with know one to talk to, no one to share all you doubts and fears.
So tell me I’m right-
That this time it’s real-
Tell my you’ll fight-
And take back the years.
You stumbled through the nights boy,
and slept away the days.
With not a penny to your name,
you filled up your pockets with your foolish dreams.
Now your running out of time boy
and used up all your lies.
There’s know one left to turn to, it’s come down to this, it’s now do or die
So tell me I’m right-
That this time it’s real-
Tell me you’ll fight-
And take back the years.
So tell me I’m right-
That this time it’s real-
And the face in the mirror, was never you, it was always me.
That the face in the mirror, was never you, it was always me.
