unknown

Driving home she grabs something to eat
Turns a corner and drives down her street
Into a row of houses she just melts away
Like the scenery in another man's play
Into a house where the blinds are closed
To keep from seeing things she don't wanna know
She pulls the blinds and looks out on the street
The cool of the night takes the edge off the heat

In the jackson cage
Down in jackson cage
You can try with all your might
But you're reminded every night
That you been judged and handed life
Down in jackson cage

Every day ends in wasted motion
Just crossed swords on the killing floor
To settle back is to settle without knowing
The hard edge that you're settling for
Because there's always just one more day
And it's always gonna be that way
Little girl you've been down here so long
I can tell by the way that you move you belong to

The jackson cage
Down in jackson cage
And it don't matter just what you say
Are you tough enough to play the game they play
Or will you just do your time and fade away
Down into the jackson cage

Baby there's nights when i dream of a better world
But i wake up so downhearted girl
I see you feeling so tired and confused
I wonder what it's worth to me or you
Just waiting to see some sun
Never knowing if that day will ever come
Left alone standing out on the street
Till you become the hand that turns the key down in

Jackson cage
Down in jackson cage
Well darlin' can you understand
The way that they will turn a man
Into a stranger to waste away
Down in the jackson cage

Night after night
I keep holding on
You say you love me
Then you leave me so lonely
Baby i don't believe a word you're sayin'
I think it's all some evil game you're playin'

Still all day long all i do is think about you
You got me believin' that i can't live without you
Well if you want it, here's my confession
Baby i can't help it, you're my obsession

Protection, that's what i need
I need protection, baby, from your love
Protection, that's what i need
I need protection, baby, from your love

I wait at home by the telephone
When i call your house, baby, you're not there
Knock on the door and i rush down the stairs
When i open up, baby, you're not there
When we're together
When we're together and you put your arms around me

You keep my mind
Forever, ever in doubt
You want me believin'
That, baby, i can't live without

Protection, that's what i need
I need protection, baby, from your love
Protection, that's what i need
I need protection, baby, from your love

We stand alone, at my window
And stare out, at the shadows down below
I feel your fingers on my face
I want to stay, i want to run away

Protection, that's what i need
I need protection, baby, from your love
Protection, that's what i need
I need protection, baby, from your love
Protection

August 1, 1983. the full e street band completed take of song written for
Donna summer.

Monday, i go to work
Tuesday, can't find my shirt
Wednesday, i'm feelin' blue
I'm helpless, darlin'
Without you, without you
Without you, without you
Thursdays, everything's fine
Friday, i'm out of my mind
Friday, i'm out of my mind
Saturday, sunday too
It's hopeless, darlin'
Without you, without you
Without you, without you

Each and every night of the week
I toss and turn in my sleep
Worryin' if you're all right
Wonderin' where you are tonight

I had a friend was a big baseball player
Back in high school
He could throw that speedball by you
Make you look like a fool boy
Saw him the other night at this roadside bar
I was walking in, he was walking out
We went back inside sat down had a few drinks
But all he kept talking about was

Chorus:
Glory days well they'll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days, glory days

Well there's a girl that lives up the block
Back in school she could turn all the boy's heads
Sometimes on a friday i'll stop by
And have a few drinks after she put her kids to bed
Her and her husband bobby well they split up
I guess it's two years gone by now
We just sit around talking about the old times,
She says when she feels like crying
She starts laughing thinking about

Chorus

My old man worked 20 years on the line
And they let him go
Now everywhere he goes out looking for work
They just tell him that he's too old
I was 9 nine years old and he was working at the
Metuchen ford plant assembly line
Now he just sits on a stool down at the legion hall
But i can tell what's on his mind

Glory days yeah goin back
Glory days aw he ain't never had
Glory days, glory days

Now i think i'm going down to the well tonight
And i'm going to drink till i get my fill
And i hope when i get old i don't sit around thinking about it
But i probably will
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
A little of the glory of, well time slips away
And leaves you with nothing mister but
Boring stories of glory days

Chorus (repeat twice)

Assorted all rights, oh yeahs, come on nows, hoots, etc til fade

Well, she comes to me like a childhood soul
Or an old time friend i ain't seen so long
When she sings to me, it's like a loving song
She can be so sweet, she don't do me no wrong

You mean so much to me, baby
You know you drive me crazy
You mean so much to me, baby
I want you for my girl

Well, sometimes she's like a baby playing with a toy,
Then she's so much woman she makes me feel like a little boy
And when she comes to me, and she's all alone,
And she cries: "oh daddy, oh daddy make me strong!"

That's when she means so much to me baby,
You know you drive me crazy
You mean so much to me, baby
I want you for my girl

Shrieks of sheiks as they run across the movie screen
A thousand sand-dune soldiers led by an arabian queen
And the harem girls move like fancy (clancy's) dancers
In my dirty dreams
And i wake up on the floor clutching the bed-lamp
And mama comes in, she screams
"hey you been out with that tramp again last night
You know that silver-sequined arab black bitch
The one that mama don't like ?"
But mama she sings me moontime melodies
With this great top 40 hook
She shrugs her shoulders, she don't care
Papa just stares and says "mary, look the girl's alright
The girl's alright"

And there's a tenseness in the air he turns and says
Don't you know, can't you feel it "tell me son, what's the word ?"
Because there's something hanging there 'cos you know he can't hear it
Pull back the mist and reveal it but don't go near it
And even if you fear what you near it's criticized as too absurd
Don't conceal it even the animals fear it
'cos if what mama feels is too real papa says "fetch me my flashlight,
Son"
She just claims she don't feel it and she stumbles out the front door

So come out from behind your bunkers
'cos the lift-off's been a bust
Oh papa's gone and mama's dead
And buried in my rocket dust
You're alone now for the first time
Don't worry, 'cos that's all right
All fear will completely disappear
Come the arabian night

Well the soundman smiles and turns the dials
To set the meter readin' rising
He pulls the singer's voice from out of his pocket
To see if the audience likes it
Oh and in the very first row sits sweet jenny rue
With a bell on her shoe and she wants him to make it
He flicks a switch but jenny moves too fast
And the audience sways to the sound of her shotgun blast
The manager comes running out from behind stage and says
Check the band's arms for bullet holes
Make that man roll up his sleeves"
The drummer shoots himself with cyanide
And then asks to be relieved
And me, i say "well, it's too crazy in here
Which is the stage door out, i gotta get up tomorrow morning for work"
And the promoter says "man, once you're in they all lead out
What's the matter man, ain't you heard ?
There's a war going on on the outside
And i'm paying you to sing like a bird
So get in and get tough or get up and get out
Because things aren't too tight"
I said "don't worry, man, everything's gonna loosen up
Come the arabian night"
Come the arabian night

So i get back in my bed
But outside my window i hear another gang fight
It's duke and the boys against the devil's best man
And both sides have drawn their knives
And duke he's a well-known knife-fighter
And with one quick jab he brings the devil down
He smiles 'cos he knows there's a high bounty on devils
In any god-fearin' town
Well they say duke sold the devil to some priest in pennsylvania
To exhibit on his altar christmas night
But the devil's eyes they still burn red with fire
As long as duke walks upright
And he swears there's a going to be a showdown
Come sundown on the arabian night

When i was a little kid
I never liked to eat
Mom would put things on my plate
And i'd dump 'em on her feet
But then one day she made this soup
I ate it all in bed
I asked her what she put in it
And this is what she said:

"oh, chicken lips and lizard hips
And alligator eyes
Monkey legs and buzzard eggs
And salamander thighs
Rabbit ears and camel rears
And tasty toenail pies
Stir 'em all together
And it's mama's soup surprise"

I went into the bathroom
And i stood beside the sink
I said, "i'm feeling slightly ill
And i think i'd like a drink"

Mama said, "i've just the thing
I'll get it in a wink
It's full of lots of protein
And vitamins, i think"

"oh, chicken lips and lizard hips
And alligator eyes
Monkey legs and buzzard eggs
And salamander thighs
Rabbit ears and camel rears
And tasty toenail pies
Stir 'em all together
And it's mama's soup surprise"

Father, i have come.
To tell you about somethin' i done.
Well as the night reared its light head
Into a baby's sun,
We rolled down into the town
From where the black throats come.

And you know there was a robb'ry.
There was a holdup.
Ooh, there was a shootout.
And there was a killin'.
And there's blood on my hands.
Today i killed a man.

Well now, sister, you know me well.
And you ask me well, how it was i felt.
Well, she had an appetite for lovin'
Only a fadin' beauty could posses.
She knew just what she wanted
And she wouldn't take less.

I figured it was a small town.
It was at sundown.
It was just a small crowd of people around.
Oh! but he wouldn't put his guns down.
No, he wouldn't put his guns down.
Oh, he wouldn't put his guns down.
Now his blood's on my hands.
Today i killed a man.

And, papa, you showed me the beauty of buckshot.
Well, that song a bullet sings as she whistles.
And showed me the story of the self-loading pistol.

Well now, father. i have come.
To tell you about somethin' i done.
He had a widow, runnin' through town screamin'.
He had a brother, and his tears were streamin'.
Now i'm movin' on the border
With a rifle on my shoulder.

'cuz, daddy, you showed me the beauty of buckshot.
The love song a bullet sings as she whistles.
And showed me the glory of the self-loading pistol.

And i just come to tell ya,
That it don't hurt no more.
No, it don't hurt no more,
'cuz your son, he's an outlaw.
Oh, your son, he's an outlaw.
Yes, your son, he's an outlaw.
Oh, your son, he's an outlaw.
Now, your son, he's an outlaw.
Oh, your son, he's an outlaw.
And this blood feels good on my hands.
Today i killed a man.

I ain't got no home, i'm just a ramblin' around
A hard working ramblin' man, i go from town to town
The police make it hard wherever i may go
And i ain't got no home in this world anymore

I was farmin' on the shares and always i was poor
My crops i laid into the banker's door
And my wife took down and died upon the cabin floor
And i ain't got no home in this world anymore

I ain't got no home, i'm just a ramblin' around
A hard working ramblin' man, i go from town to town
The police make it hard wherever i may go
And i ain't got no home in this world anymore

Now as i look around it's mighty plain to see
This wide wicked world is a funny place to be
The gamblin' man is rich and the workin' man is poor
And i ain't got no home in this world anymore

I bought a scooter and i rented a shack
Out in the sun, by the railroad track
I got a job and i'm a-breakin' my back
Workin' and workin' for the big payback

I keep a puttin' and a puttin' out
I keep a sweatin' like a hog and all
I work so long that i'm a losin' track
I work so long that i'm a losin' track
Waitin', waitin' on the big payback

Well, it's a wham, bam, thank you ma'am, god damn, ring out sam
I took on that train rumblin' down this track
They got your neck in the noose, you're draggin' long in back
Chasin' and chasin' the big payback

Oh what my foreman does well i don't know
He just throws me a shovel and yells "go, bobby, go"
Oh well-a all day long he's just a busy wise crack
While i'm sweatin' and sweatin' the big payback

Well, it's a wham, bam, thank you ma'am, god damn, ring out sam
I took on that train rumblin' down the track
They got your neck in the noose, your hands are tied up in back
And you're a-workin' and workin' for the big payback

I quit that job, and mister i ain't goin' back
Got me a knife and she's a long and bad
I'll tell you how i make the peace with that man
Down in the alley of the big payback

I go a wham, bam, thank you ma'am, god damn, c'mon man
You're a goin' to that train rumblin' down this track
I got your neck in the noose and i don't give a damn, jack
I'm on that long lost highway of the big payback
I'm on that long lost highway of the big payback
I'm on that long lost highway of the big payback

Little girl in these changing times
You got to move on or left behind
Every day is a battle again
And the state of future looks so damned
... ... allright
And if you get it right
...
...
...
Well you just got to fight for what you want
You got to fight for what you want 2x
For what you want

...
Every guide (or better 'guy'?) leaves you so confused
... which way to turn
...
Oh yeah ...
All night ...
... ... with that stone

Remember that
You got to fight for what you want 3x
For what you want
...
Got to fight for what you want
You got to fight for what you want

She drew out all her money out of the southern trust
And put her little boy aboard a greyhound bus
Leaving louisiana for the golden west
Down came the tears from her happiness
Her own little son name 'o johnny b. goode
Was gonna make some motion pictures out in hollywood

Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye bye johnny
Good bye johnny b. goode

She remembered taking money out from gathering crop
And buying johnny's guitar at a broker shop
As long as he would play it by the railroad side
And wouldn't get in trouble he was satisfied
But never thought that there would come a day like this
When she would have to give her son a goodbye kiss

Going
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye bye johnny
Good bye johnny b. goode

She finally got the letter she was dreaming of
Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love
As soon as he was married he would bring her back
And build a mansion for 'em by the railroad track
So every time they heard the locomotive roar
They'd be a' standin', a' wavin' by the kitchen door

Howling
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye bye johnny
Good bye johnny b. goode

Well look out mama your little girl she has changed
She cut her baby curls
And she's got her act rearranged
Look out daddy what she needs now
She can't find at home
Oh rickie wants a man of her
She wants a man of her
Rickie wants a man of her own

Mama says her little girl won't talk to her anymore
She just goes in her room, turns on the radio and shuts
The door
She's got her own bathroom, tv, stereo, extension phone
Oh, but mama, rickie wants a man of her
She wants a man of her
Rickie wants a man of her own

Well daddy says when he drop her off friday night at the
Gym
She slides way down in the front seat
So the kids won't see her with him
She don't do no work
She won't tell nobody when she's coming home
And she makes poor daddy wait down on the corner
At midnight all alone

Well daddy's pullin' out his hair
He says that girl ain't got no direction
She don't care to bring her boyfriends home
To pass daddy's inspection
Now we're left peeking through the curtains
Everytime that we hear a horn blow
Well i guess rickie wants a man of her own

Mama says: "son, talk to her, she'll listen to you"
Yeah, she listens real nice and she does what she wants
To do
Well daddy says: "she wears her jeans so tight
Well, you change 'em or you're staying home"ah, but daddy, rickie wants a man
Of her
She wants a man of her
Rickie wants a man of her own
She's almost grown

Rickie wants a man of her
She wants a man of her
Rickie wants a man of her own

Oh god said to abraham, "kill me a son"
Abe says, "man, you must be putting me on"
God say, "no". abe say, "what?"
God say, "you can do what you want abe, but
The next time you see me comin' you better run"
Well abe says, "where do you want this killing done?"
God says, "out on highway 61".

Well georgia sam he had a bloody nose
Welfare department they wouldn't give him no clothes
He asked poor howard where can i go
Howard said there's only one place i know
Sam said tell me quick man i got to run
Ol' howard just pointed with his gun
And said that way down on highway 61.

Well mack the finger said to louie the king
I got forty red white and blue shoe strings
And a thousand telephones that don't ring
Do you know where i can get rid of these things
And louie the king said let me think for a minute son
And he said yes i think it can be easily done
Just take everything down to highway 61.

Now the fifth daughter on the twelfth night
Told the first father that things weren't right
My complexion she said is much too white
He said come here and step into the light he says hmm you're right
Let me tell the second mother this has been done
But the second mother was with the seventh son
And they were both out on highway 61.

Now the rovin' gambler he was very bored
He was tryin' to create a next world war
He found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor
He said i never engaged in this kind of thing before
But yes i think it can be very easily done
We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun
And have it on highway 61.

I ain't afraid of no lions
I ain't afraid of no grizzly bear
I got in a wrestlin' match with old king kong
He didn't even muss my hair
There's just one thing in the whole wide world
That make me doubt my stuff

I'm a coward when it comes to love

Now bring down old hulk hogan
King kong bundy too
Bring down old big mike tyson
I'll show them what a real man can do
They say the tougher' get goin'
Now baby that's when the goin' get tough

But i'm a coward when it comes to love
I'm a coward when it comes to love
I'm a coward when it comes to love

You can bring on a different sexy girl
At every night of the week
Buddy that's okay
But i start tremblin', my knees get weak
Whenever i hear her say
"do you love me baby?"
"do you love me baby?"
"do you love me baby?"

I got a muscle of iron
I got another muscle made of steel
But when we start kissin' 'n' huggin'
You may be the bravest man in the whole wide world
But buddy, that ain't enough

I'm a coward when it comes to love
I'm a coward when it comes to love
I'm a coward when it comes to love

Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Ooh, they're red, white and blue
And when the band plays "hail to the chief"
They point the cannon right at you

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no senator's son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate son

Some folks are born silver spoon in hand
Lord they don't help themselves
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no millionaire's son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate son

Some folks inherit star spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war
And when you ask them "how much should we give ?"
They only answer more! more! more!

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no military's son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate son

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one, no no
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate son

You'd better watch out, you'd better not cry

You'd better not pout, i'm telling you why

You'd better not pout, i'm telling you why
Santa claus is coming to town
Santa claus is coming to town
Santa claus is coming to town

(released on a 45rpm)

Last night i was out driving
Coming home at the end of the working day
I was riding alone through the drizzling rain
On a deserted stretch of a county two-lane
When i cam upon a wreck on the highway

There was blood and glass all over
And there was nobody there but me
As the rain tumbled down hard and cold
I seen a young man lying by the side of the road
He cried mister, won't you help me please

An ambulance finally came and took him to riverside
I watched as they drove him away
And i thought of a girlfriend or a young wife
And a state trooper knocking in the middle of the night
To say your baby died in a wreck on the highway

Sometimes i sit up in the darkness
And i watch my baby as she sleeps
Then i climb in bed and i hold her tight
I just lay there awake in the middle of the night
Thinking 'bout the wreck on the highway

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you can call him a man
Yes 'n how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
Yes and how many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they're forever banned
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind

Yes and how many years can a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea
Yes and how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free
Yes and how many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind

Yes and how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky
Yes and how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
Yes and how many deaths will it take 'till he knows
That too many people have died
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind

After the music had stopped
I still heard it playing
I moved a little closer to hear
The words she was saying
She said i'll never break your heart
I'll never try to fake it
My love is here for you
All you have to do is take it
Kisses sweeter than wine
My little girl so fine

The night seemed to say it was right
But could i believe her
My heart said, it's time to go
But my eyes wouldn't leave her
There's always somebody trying to break your heart
Somebody trying to take it
My little girl tried so hard
To help me make it
Kisses sweeter than wine
My little girl so fine

Oh, oh, oh, oh, sha la la
Oh, oh, sha la la
So fine
Oh, oh, oh, oh, sha la la
Oh, oh, sha la la
So fine

When we danced
I forgot everything and whispered
Hold me tight
Take a chance
On what tomorrow brings
Won't you be mine, be mine
Be mine tonight

We walked away laughing together
Into the night for ever and ever and ever
Now i know
I'll never break me baby's heart
I'll never try to fake it
I'll give her all my love
All she has to do is take it
Kisses sweeter than wine
My little girl so fine
Kisses sweeter than wine
My little girl so fine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Kisses sweeter than wine
My little girl so fine

Oh, oh, oh, oh, sha la la
Oh, oh, sha la la
So fine

I fell asleep on the couch last night, woke up with the tv on.
There was a woman in tight cotton exercise shorts
And a big plastic machine she was climbing on.
She said "the abacycle guarantees ten inches off your waist,
And 50 pounds in just 3 minutes a day."
I went to bed knowing the revolution had been postponed
And everything was ok.

You can buy it, you can try it, go right ahead.
But don't be fooled folks, there's only one.
I forget the guy's name but i know somebody must have said
Sell it and they will come boys, sell it and they will come.

I switched the channels and there was evel knievel, i thought that he was
Dead.
I found myself sitting there quietly, hanging on every word he said.
"now folks, the stimulator removes all pain from your life.
And the best day of your life will be when you try this little thing out."
The camera moved in as he said, "now let me tell you ladies and gentlemen,
Pain is something old evel knows a little about"

You can buy it, you can try it, that's what i said.
But don't be fooled folks, there's only one.
I forget that guy's name but i know somebody must have said
Sell it and they will come boys, sell it and they will come.

And a fellow comes on shouting "free haircuts for life!",
Somehow you cut your hair with a vacuum cleaner.
And then i switched the channels and there was dionne warwick, communing
With her psychic friends.
I watched for hours, taking warmth, comfort,
And pleasure in the things that i despise.
Touched by how much they needed me, and that gleeful desperation in their
Eyes.

You can buy it, you can try it, it'll help you in bed.
But don't be fooled folks, there's only one.
I forget that guy's name but i know somebody said
Sell it and they will come boys, sell it and they will come.

So dionne, cher, and all my late-night friends, i drink to your health.
And tony little, america's personal trainer, please kill yourself.
Now i've sold a few things myself in my time, and by the way folks,
There's some t-shirts on your way outside.
Well last night i dreamed of lipstick and tight little cotton shorts
"harder, faster", she breathed.
"one, two, three, four, five"
Ride, sally ride, girl, ride sally ride.

You can buy it, you can try it, it'll help you in bed.
But don't be fooled folks, there's only one.
I forget that guy's name but somebody said
Sell it and they will come boys, sell it and they will come.

Long as i remember
The rain been falling down
Clouds of myst'ry pourin'
Confusion on the ground

Good men through the ages
They try to find the sun
But i wonder, still i wonder
Who'll stop the rain

I went down virginia
Seekin' shelter from the storm
Just caught up in the fable
I watched the tower grow
Five-year plan and new deals
Wrapped in golden chains
Still i wonder, yes i wonder
Who'll stop the rain

Heard the singers playin'
How we cheered for more
The crowd had rushed together
Tryin' to keep warm
Still the rain keeps falling
Fallin' through the years

And i wonder, still i wonder
Who'll stop the rain
I wanna know, baby i wanna know

There's a pale horse coming
And i'm going to ride it
I'll rise in the morning
My fate decided
I'm a dead man walking
I'm a dead man walking
In st james' parish i was born and christened
I've got my story mister
Ain't no need for you to listen
It's just a dead man talking
Once i had a job i had a a girl
Between our dreams and actions lies this world
In the deep forest their blood and tears rushed over me
All i could feel was the drugs and the shotgun
And my fear up inside of me
Like a dead man talkin'
'neath the summer sky my eyes went black
Sister i won't ask for forgiveness
My sins are all i have
Now the clouds above my prisonmove slowly across the sky
There's a new day
Coming and my dreams are full to-night

Well janey's got a doctor who tears apart her insides.
He investigates her and he silently bates her sighs
He probes with his fingers but he knows her heart only through his stethoscope.
Hands are cold and his body's so old
Janey turns him down like dope.

Janey needs a shooter jack
A shooter like me on her side
Janey needs a shooter jack
A shooter man who knows her style
The way that i know her style

Well janey's got a priest from his marble pulpit he smiles
He provides concilation and confessions at anytime
Through the pages of his bible he holds from what janey hides
With her doors open wide she begs come inside
But he's frozen in the clear on the outside

Janey needs a shooter jack
A shooter like me on her side
Janey needs a shooter jack
A shooter man who knows her style,
The way that i know her style

Well janey's got a cop who lives round the block and checks on her everynight
From at through the jail outside her house his siren roars when he knows that i'm inside
Well janey's small and sometimes he scares her
So i held her real close she flowed like a ghost
And i told her bye, so long, i can't play that dope.

Well janey needs a shooter jack
A shooter like me on her side
Janey needs a shooter jack
A shooter man who knows her style,
Janey needs a shooter jack
A shooter man on her side
Janey needs a shooter man
A shooter man who knows her style
The way that i know her style
A man who knows her style
The way that i know her style
A man who knows her style
The way that i know her style
A man who knows her style
The way that i know her style
A man who knows her style
The way that i know her style
A man who knows her style
The way i know your style
You need a man who knows your style
The way that i know your style
A man who knows her style
The way i know your style

Well night after lonely night
My head don't touch the bed
I'm on a two-lane black-top
Cruisin' in my rocket sled
I'm on the prowl
Yeah i'm on the prowl
Well i'm looking for a gal, gal, gal
Hey, hey, hey, i'm on the prowl

There's only one thing that i'm certain
Every mile, mile, mile
Keep a-searchin', serachin', serachin'
For a wild, wild, child
I'm on the prowl
I'm on the prowl
I'm looking for a gal, gal, gal
Hey, hey, hey, i'm on the prowl

They got a name for dracula
And frankenstein's son
They ain't got no name now (mister)
For this monster (thing that) i've become
I'm on the prowl
I'm on the prowl
I'm looking for a gal, gal, gal
Hey, hey, hey, i'm on the prowl

I keep lookin'
I keep searchin'
I keep searchin'
I keep searchin'
Only one thing that i'm certain
Every mile, mile, mile
I keep searchin', searchin', searchin', searchin', searchin'

In the morning i check my mirror
And i hang my head and cry
But at night i get a burning, burning, burning deep inside
I'm on the prowl
I'm on the prowl
I'm looking for a gal, gal, gal
Hey, hey, hey, i'm on the prowl

In the morning i check my mirror
And i hang my head and cry
But at night i get a burning, burning, burning, burning, burning. burning

There's only one thing that i'm certain
Every while, while, while
While my heart is hurtin', hurtin'
Every mile, mile, mile
I gotta keep searchin', searchin', searchin', searchin', searchin'

It was christmas eve, i was standin' in the parking lot
Of "fabulous girls, nude - nude - nude"
In the car next to me there was a young lady givin' a blow-job
To a man in a santa claus suit
His beard was crooked, his hat askew
Embarrassed, i turned to go
When from the back seat of that mazda i heard somebody shout "oh baby, don't
Stop"

And a merry "ho-ho-ho"

When i walked inside, i ordered a beer and a double shot of whisk
And in three minutes i had fallen in love
The dj announced "ladies and gentlemen, from forth worth, texas: lady godiva"
And i sat and worshipped 'neath the angel above
At the end of her set she brushed her hair
Came and sat on the stool to my right
And said "will you buy me a drink?"
My heart beats fast, my trousers grew tight
And wittily i replied "uhhh...."

She showed me a picture of her kid
Said during the day she's an art student
She dances six nights a week for slobs and idiots like this
Of course, present company excluded.

On donner, on dancer, on comet, on blitzen
I'm lost in the valley of the supervixens
Worshippin' at the feet of the goddess above
I'm a pilgrim in the temple of love, ma, just a pilgrim in the temple
Of love

Well then santa came stumblin' in, and somebody shouted
"hey santa, where's your elves?"
He sat down on the stool to my left
And the bartender took a vodka bottle of the shelf
He asked if mrs. claus had called
To tell her he worked on the late shift at the mall
And he was sorry, but he just got through
I turned and i asked him:
"how's the kid this year, santa?"
Beneath his breath he whispered "a merry fuck you"

Well then the owner come over and he was a short gfat ugly guy
With a funny kind of pushed-in face
He shook my hand and said it was the first time
They'd ever had a real superstar in this place
Lady godiva bought me a few drinks
And words came out of my mouth
What they were, i couldn't guess
But it was something about showgirls, lapdancing, motley crue
You can guess the rest

Well i walked outside, snow was falling
I had some toys to put together - it was christmas time
Santa followed me into the parking lot
And threw up on the hood of the car next to mine
I gave him my handkerchief, pulled out onto the highway
And as i sat at the light
I swear i saw a sleigh with a dozen of reindeers
Pull up out of the parking lot and cut across the mall
And a voice shouted "merry christmas to all you assholes
And to all a good fucking night!"

The way your heart beats when i hold you tight
The way you sigh when we kiss goodnight
The way the wind blows through the trees
Well hey, that's the way you belong to me

The way you warm me baby when i'm cold
The way you make me want you body and soul
The way the rivers run to the sea
Well hey, that's the way you belong to me

The way you soothe me when i'm in pain
The way you make the blood rush in my veins
The way the winds rush through the trees
Well hey, that's the way you belong to me

When i lose faith you take my hand
The way you make me feel like i'm a man
The way the sun belongs to the sea
Well hey, that's the way you belong to me

The way you make me feel like i belong
And if i could girl though i know it'd be wrong
I'd lock you deep inside
'till the last rains fall
And hide you from the emptiness of it all

Sometimes at night i lie awake
I pull you close and feel each breath you take
The way the rivers belong to the seas
Well hey, that's the way you belong to me
Well hey, that's the way you belong to me

Well don't move
Why don't you listen to what i'm saying
And hey you
You better get up if you plan to be staying
Get loose
You got to listen to what the band is playing
Oh tonight
There's action in the street all night
We're bopping to the big beat, go
Get up off your seat and roll

At school
The girls you know their dancing, mister 's just my speed
And hey cool
If action is the thing you need
Well don't fool
The kid's satisfaction guaranteed
Oh tonight
There's action in the street all night
We're bopping to the big beat, go
Get up off your seat and roll

Well hey man
Yeah don't let the little girl sigh
Understand
If you just move your body side to side
Raise your hand
Shout until you're satisfied
Oh tonight
There's action in the street all night
We're bopping to the big beat, go
Get up off your seat and roll

There's so many rivers to cross
But i can't seem to find my way over
Wandering, i'm lost
As i travel along the white cliffs of dover

Many rivers to cross
And it's only my will that keeps me alive.
I've been hurt, washed up for years
But i mearly survive because of my pride

And this loneliness won't leave me alone,
It's such a drag to be on your own
My baby left, and she wouldn't say why,
Now all i do is cry...

I've got many rivers to cross
And it's only my will that keeps me alive
I've got so many rivers to cross,
Oh, so many rivers to cross...

Pack up your bags
Don't look back
There's a little place
Out 'cross the the railroad tracks
If you're broken-hearted
And you don't know what to do
But they got a place down there that's just for you

Club soul, club soul city, yeah yeah yeah
Club soul, club soul city, oh yeah

There's a waitress at the back bar
Goes with the the guy that runs the place
She's got hair like a weeping willow
And tears running down her face
She's seen a lot of guys like you coming around
Looking for something that they've lost
Or trying to lose something that they've found
Down at

Club soul, club soul city, yeah yeah yeah
Club soul, club soul city, oh yeah

So if you're down on your spirit
And there ain't no-one who cares
If you're lost and you're lonely
You won't be lonely down there
You can't miss it, it's just up the highway
On the front door there's a sign that says
Restricted to the losing kind

Club soul, club soul city, yeah yeah yeah
Club soul, club soul city, oh yeah
Club soul, club soul city, yeah yeah yeah
Club soul, club soul city, oh yeah

I was there
When you needed someone
Look now baby
And see what we have undone
Oh i did most of the talking
But you were the one who lied

Bye bye baby
Out love is tumbling down
I can't be hanging around
Love on the wrong side of town
Oh baby

You were gone
When i needed you by my side
There was no one
To dry the tears from my eyes
Oh you were the one who cheated
But i was the one who cried

Bye bye baby
Out love is tumbling down
I can't be hanging around
Love on the wrong side of town

Bye bye baby
Out love is tumbling down
I can't be hanging around
Love on the wrong side of town

Bye bye baby
Love on the wrong side of town
Bye bye baby
Bye bye darling
Bye bye baby

The moon hung like a shadow on a rung over shangai
Them soldier boys were returning home screaming "banzai"
And the kids are still playing their games
Gettin hustled and rustled out in the rain
As i sat inside listening to the broadcast
Oh save my soul sweet rock'n'roll 'cause i'm sinkin' fast
And then the band played
Out of nowhere, it was alright

Well now the legendary chaplain of the fightin' 51st was gettin' ready to go
I said: padre, do you know a cheap virgin who like to tango?
He said: you can try linda lee,
Around the corner and across the sea
Oh word is out word is out she's fast
Oh blow me down linda 'cause i'm sinkin' fast

Yes and them cats are sure getting fat
Down in the train yard
And the sandman brings them dreams
To ship out in boxcars
The union says hold, break out the dice, break out the gold
It's lunchtime at last

And old big mama said: "georges raft's tonight on the late show"
She sits straddlin' a kitchen chair, really gung-ho
She shivers with chills, wet with her slot-card thrills
Hypnotically lost in the glass
And we all sigh with the sunrise
As we watch the credits pass
And the little blue dot went away

And then the morning cloak fell down
Like a hoax over sleepytown
Them garbage truck vigilantes out making their last rounds
The inheritor he sipped his beer
And poked fun at the queer
And threatened to kick his ass

And the bell rings, a horn blows
And he's outside pumpin' gas
But the things were movin' so slow tonight
So the kid goes back inside the station
And turns on his radio to his local am station
And then the band played
Right on the radio, it was alright
And the boys in the band sung
And the band played, everybody

(cover: gary u.s. bonds. written by springsteen)

He was a bouncer in a joint called tony's body shop
She was a night cashier down at the stop 'n' shop
He was kinda good-lookin'
And she was kinda fun
They met 'neath that big oak tree
Out where the river runs

Little angelyne, little angelyne
As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines
Back of a greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
Just big bill and little angelyne

She was just in from texas, didn't know her way around
So he took her to a roadhouse on the edge of town
In the beerhall light she looked so fine
And so he popped the question that was on his mind

It was a simple affair, only a friend or two
Preacher asked if they did, they said they do
She bought two tickets with her daddy's american express
And hopped a greyhound bus in her wedding dress

Little angelyne, little angelyne
As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines
Back of a greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
Just big bill and little angelyne

In a six dollar motel with the honey bun
With seven glorious days in the nevada sun
He played the tables, she pumped the slots full of dimes
They came back broke but they had a good time

Now many fell apart in the years come and gone
But big bill and little angel they'd last on and on
They held together when the times grew thin
A little boy that looked like her, and a girl that looked like him

So mister don't you pay it no mind
Let the sun go down and the moonlight shine
Back of a greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
Just big bill and little angelyne

Little angelyne, little angelyne
As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines
Back of a greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
Just big bill and little angelyne

Little angelyne, little angelyne
As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines
Back of a greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
Just big bill and little angelyne

I had a wife and kid, and i tried to settle down
I just wanted to live an honest life on the edge of an honest town.
But in the end they left me danglin' danglin (in the night?)
And i went crazy tryin', tryin' to walk that thin line.

Oh chevrolet deluxe, i bought you with all your accessories,
Oh chevrolet deluxe, i bought you with all your accessories,
But mister, i can't keep my payments up
I lie awake at night and wonder if i'm tough enough
To win back the hand of chevrolet deluxe.
......
They shut the power off down at the mill (the count the third time?)
And these days when you ride down main street
It's just whitewashed windows and vacancy signs
Did you ever think til the end your kids you would never believe
That if you would leave this old town, that it would leave me.

My brother's down in ft bragg, been there for half a year
Man he just got into too much trouble around here.

Chevrolet deluxe, i bought her with all the accessories,
But mister, i can't keep those payments up
Chevrolet deluxe, i lost my heart, i lost my guts....
......
She was sittin' down at highway chevrolet out on route 3
She was lookin'g like she was waitin' just for me
I worked all summer long and i saved my money up
And i went down and i put that money down

In the fall, billy, (...?)
I drove him down rode down together down to fort bragg
In the years that he was gone (...?)
(...?) in the refinery (...?) go along

Chevrolet deluxe, i bought her with all the accessories,
(...?)
Another year end gone, and billy he came home
(...?)

But it was like all of a sudden there was a curse
Things got band and things got worse
Hmmm... went the power there down at the mill
Hmmm... the thrill when they shut the power down at the mill
(...?)

Chevrolet deluxe, i bought her with all the accessories,
But i can't keep those payments up
Chevrolet deluxe

(...?) you were so clear to see
Now when i wake in the mornging i don't know what's happening to me

Chevrolet deluxe, i bought her with all the accessories,
Mister i can't keep those payments up
Chevrolet deluxe you let me down took the heart right out of me

I saw her when i was 17 down at hansen's chevrolet
I made up my mind to get her any how, any way.
That whole summer i worked until i had enough
Then i went and put my money down on that chevrolet deluxe.

[...]
Chevrolet deluxe, i bought her with all the accessories,
But mister, i can't keep those payments up
Chevrolet deluxe, i lost my heart, she took my gut...

It don't matter what you want, it don't matter what you say,
Are you tough enough not to play the way they play.

Woke up this morning, there was a chill in the air
Went to the kitchen, my cigarettes were lying there
Jacket hung on the chair, the way i left it last night
Everything was in place, everything seemed alright

But you were missing, missing missing..

Last night i dreamed the sky went black
You were drifting down, couldn't get back
Lost in trouble, so far from home
I reached for you, my arms were like stone

Oh, but you were missing, missing... missing

Searched for something to explain
In the whispering rain and the trembling *(?)*
Tell me baby, where did you go
You were here just a moment ago

At nights i still hear your footsteps fall
I can hear your voice moving down the hall
Drifting through the bedroom
I lie awake but i don't move

Princess di did find another man
Prince charles may want to live as a tampon in another woman's
Underpants
I know what he feels like
I've been there too
But there'll never be any other for me but you

Will elizibeth taylor get married again? buddy, that's the question
Poor larry fortenski got busted on his harly for illegal weapons
Possession
I've been that down, i've been that crazy
I've been that much of a fool
But there'll never be any other for me but you

Man, a love that's real
Is a love that's hard
Like a pit bull on your ass, in a very small back yard
A love that's hard can be a love that's true
But i swear there'll never be any other for me but you

Elvis and priscilla
Jim baker and tammy fay
Donald and ivana once swore their love forever and a day
I said those words yes, i meant 'em too
But i swear there'll never be any other for me but you
No baby, there'll never be any other for me but you

I pick you up with flowers
When you get off from work
It's like you don't even care
It's like i'm some kind of jerk
I take you out on a date
And then you won't even kiss me
Boy when i ain't around
I'll bet you don't even miss me

I don't know why
I love you like i do
I try and try
You treat me like a fool
It makes me want to cry
It makes me feel so blue
But i just do, baby, i just do

I call you up
Just to pass the time
Soon as you hear my voice
You disconnect the line
And when i call you back
Your mother says you ain't home
Cindy i know that's you on the other end of this phone
Oh in this world
There ain't another like you
My little candy girl
So hard-hearted and cruel
I think that's what
Keeps me coming back
I'm a fool for you cindy and i like it like that

I came to get you last night
Cindy, at quarter to six
Your daddy came to the door
He said cindy got sick
She got sent home from work
With a note from the nurse
And my very presencewould make your condition worse
But it ain't your health
'cause well you sure look fine
Little girl it's something else
That's on my mind
Well you can give it to me
'cause if it's good enough for you
It's good enough for me

I don't know why
I love you like i do
You make me cry
And feel like such a fool
I guess i like it
When you hurt me this way
You dish it out and i just put it away

Well, i got a little girl down by the river
Now she keeps ??? tight
I got a little girl, she every night

She says "i'm feeling like a wild, hands on ???
Then she keeps me all night.

So come on, down by the river
Come on, come on now.
Just come on, down by the river
It's alright.

Well baby, let me protect you little darling
If you let me ???
I know, if you'll just let me in.
Well, every day just brings in the same

But every night...???

Yes, come on, down by the river
Oh, come on, girl, it's alright.
Well, come on, down by the river
Hold tight.

She promises to be yours forever and always
And you're too young to know it don't work out that way
When she kisses you and your heart skips
And you're ten feet off the ground
Soon you'll be crying and that when you'll have found
That

Your love is gonna let you down, boy
Your love is gonna let you down
Your love is gonna let you down, boy
Your love is gonna let you down

Well it's kisses and sweet talk
When she first starts coming round
But soon tears start falling down
You say every day she makes your dreams come true
But soon those very dreams will be the death of you
Well

Your love is gonna let you down, boy
Your love is gonna let you down
Your love is gonna let you down, boy
Your love is gonna let you down

No cold denials, no-one really lied
It was time spent, promise implied
And suddenly you see something new in her eyes
And in that moment you realize

Lately you've been walking the streets at night
Like an empty shadow in the morning light
Like an empty shadow that's suddenly found
That your love is gonna let you down

Your love is gonna let you down, boy
Your love is gonna let you down
Your love is gonna let you down, boy
Your love is gonna let you down

(early version)

Well the rangers had a home-coming in harlem late last night
And the magic rat piloted his sleek machine across the jersey state line
Barefoot girl sits drinking warm beer on the hood of an old dodge
In the soft summer rain
Rat rolls up his pants, together they'd make a stab at romance
And move down flamingo lane

Well now the maximum lawmen they run down the flamingo chasing the rat
And the barefoot girl
But the kids they live like shadows in empty doorways
(but they live like shadows in the vacant doorways)
Always silent, holding hands
The rat pulls her close (the rat pulls mary close)
And from the churches to the jails there is silence in the world
(all is silent in the world)
For tonight they'd take their chance
Down here in jungleland

Well ther's a crazy kind of light tonight
Brighter than the one that sparkles for prophets
Brighter than the giant exxon sign that brings this fair city light
There's an opera out on the turnpike, there's a ballet being fought outside
The
Alley
Well the cops they let their faces show and rips this holy night
The streets alive with tough-kid jets in nova-light machines
Boys flash guitars like bayonets and rip holes in their jeans
Then the hungry and the haunted explode into rock 'n' roll bands
They face off against each other when they meet
Down here in jungleland

The streets's on fire in a classic death waltz
Between the masters of flesh and fantasy
The poets down here don't write nothin' at all, they just stand and and let
It all be
And in the quick of the night they reach for their moment to make an honest
Stand
But they wind up wounded, not rightly dead, down here in jungleland - yes
They do

Oh beneath the city their hearts beat, soul cool engines tired and brave
Oh as the young (jungle) girls stand by fire angels fallen in the city
In the tunnels of machines they'll hear the screams
Drowned out by the roarin' trains
Them rats above, oh locked in love
The rat saves her from the edge of an on-coming train
That angel rides a...
Down here in jungleland - oh yes they do
They hear the animals sing - oh oh oh

Alternative verses:
===================
In the parking lots the visionairies are dressed in the latest rage
As the spanish angels dance soft and low in a blacked arcade
But the lights are so bright as he crosses the room
The band moves into the song
He takes her hand, looks in her eyes and they're gone - gone
In the tunnel of machines the rat chases his dreams
On that forever (lasting) burning light
So the barefoot girl crawls into bed, shakes her head
And with a kiss and a sigh she shuts out all the light

Beneath the city their hearts beat, soul cool engines silent and...
Oh until the girls cry like silent angels in port authority halls
In the tunnel of machines they'll hear the screams
Drowned out by the roarin' train
And layers above, oh locked in love
The rat reappears on flamingo lane
Then an angel rises from the sands
And disappears - down in jungleland

She said we could just sleep together,
There'd be nothing wrong.
We could just hold each other with our clothes on.
I went to answer, i don't think we should.
Then i heard a voice say, yeah, i guess we could.
She kissed me lightly and said you know sometimes when you're down,


It's the little things that count
It's the little things that count
It's the little things...

She said it was too late, i really shouldn't try to drive.
She unbuttoned my shirt and whispered just close your eyes.
Here, let me take your boots off, you know sometimes when your luck's run out


It's the little things that count
It's the little things that count
It's the little things...

Bridge: her dress rode lightly as she walked
Then she pulled the covers down.

(harmonica break)

Well i was so dry, she held a water glass to my lips,
And the polish on her nail was chipped.
She said she had a boyfriend that i reminded her of.
His hair was the same muddy brown; she stuck her tongue in my mouth...

Well it seems like i'm caught up in your trap again
And it seems like i'll be wearin' the same ol' chains
Good will conquer evil and the truth will set you free
Then i know someday i'll find the key
Then i know somewhere i'll find the key
Well it seem like i've been playin' the game way too long
And it seems the game i played has made you strong
Well when the game is over, i won't walk out a loser
And i know that i'll walk out of here again
And i know that someday i'll walk out of here again

But now i'm trapped...oh yeah!
Trapped...oh yeah yeah!
Trapped...oh yeah!
Trapped...oh yeah!

Now it seems like i've been sleepin' in your bed too long
And it seems like you've been meanin' to do me harm
But i'll teach my eyes to see beyond these walls in front of me
And someday i'll walk out of here again
Yeah i know someday i'll walk out of here again

(chorus)

Well it seem like i've been playin' the game way too long
And it seems the game i played has made you strong

Because i'm trapped...oh yeah!
Trapped...oh yeah yeah!
Trapped...oh yeah yeah!
Trapped...oh yeah!

I'm trapped...oh yeah yeah!
Trapped...oh yeah yeah
Trapped...oh yeahhhhhh
Trapped....oh yeahhhh
I'm trapped.

I was out driving, just taking it slow
Looked at my tank it was reading low
Pulled in an exxon station out on highway one
Look out!
Help up without a gun
Help up without a gun
Help up without a gun

(some man) drew eight hundred dollars (doing off a
Squeeze)
Ain't got nowhere to go and nothing to eat
(driving up so blow us) better sign here son
Watch out!
Help up without a gun
Help up without a gun

Now it's a sin and it oughta be a crime
You know it happens buddy all the time
If i don't break the limit tryin' to have a little fun
Help up without a gun
Help up without a gun
Help up without a gun
Help up without a gun

Rainy night down in the engine house
Sleepin' just as still as a mouse
A man came along and chase us out in the rain
Well was that a vigilante man?

Stormy days, we pass the time away
Sleeping in some good warm place
A cop come along we give him a little race
Say was that a vigilante man?

Well tell me why does a vigilante man
Tell me why does a vigilante man
Carry that sawed off shotgun in his hands
To shoot his brothers and sisters down that no good vigilante man

Well i ramble around from town to town
Yeah i ramble around from town to town
Yeah and they run us around like a wild herd of cattle lord
Is that your vigilante man?

Well tell me why does a vigilante man
Tell me why does a vigilante man
Carry that club in his hands
Would he beat an innocent man down that no good vigilante man

If your heart is restless and you can't go on
When you're tired and weary, but you can't go on
Well a distant dream is a callin' you
Then there's just one thing that you can do

Yeah, you gotta follow that dream wherever that dream may lead you
You gotta follow that dream wherever that dream may lead

Now if i walk in dreams
And if i talk in dreams
I need someone with a love i can trust
And together we'll search for the things that come to us
Baby in dreams, in dreams

Now every man has the right to live
The right to a chance to give what he has to give
The right to fight for the things he believes
For the things that come to him in dreams

Baby in dreams, i walk in dreams
I talk in dreams
I live in dreams

It's over now, the thing we had
I ain't sorry, babe, i just feel mad
You walk real pretty and you talk real fine
Night after night you wrote the lines

My life's the same story
Again and again
I' m on the outside looking in
On the outside looking in

Hey, make-believe ain't real
I don't doubt the way i feel
You walk real pretty and you talk real sweet
Well babe i was born in the driving seat

My life's the same story
Again and again
I' m on the outside looking in
On the outside looking in
Yes i' m on the outside looking in

It's over now, the thing we had
I ain't sorry, babe, i just feel mad
You walk real pretty and you talk real fine
Night after night you wrote the lines

My life's the same story
Beginning to end
Beginning to end
I' m on the outside looking in
On the outside looking in
Yes i' m on the outside looking in
Yes i am
Yes i guess i am
Baby i' m on the outside looking in

Tell me baby
Have we lost everything that we had before
What do you do in the day
When i walk out the door
I can see you made up your mind
And i know our love's on the line

Love's on the line, our love's on the line
Love's on the line, our love's on the line
Love's on the line, our love's on the line

With each passing day
I gotta watch more and more what i say to you
I can feel your eyes looking through me
As i sit at the table at dinnertime
I can feel our love's on the line

Love's on the line, our love's on the line
Love's on the line, our love's on the line
Love's on the line, our love's on the line

I watch our kids
Growin' up, going to school
Is there anything else for us now
Are we both just fools
Wasting our precious time

At night we lay in bed
But it's like you're not even there
There's something real bad
Going wrong somewhere
Last night i heard you cry
And i know our love's on the line

Love's on the line, our love's on the line
Love's on the line, our love's on the line
Love's on the line, our love's on the line
Love's on the line

Remember when the music
Came from wooden boxes
Strung with silver wires
And as we sang
The words would set our hearts on fire
To believe in things
So we'd sing

Remember when the music
Brought us all together
To stand inside the rain
And as we'd join hands
We'd meet in the refrain
With dreams to live
And hope to give

Remember when the music
Was the best that we'd dream of
For our's children's time
And as we'd worked we'd sing
Cause we knew time
Was just a lie
A gift to say
A gift that future gave

Remember when the music
Was a rock we could cling to
So we would not despair
And as we sang we'd knew
We'd hear an echo in the air
And if we weren't smiling then
We'd smile again
And all the times i listened
And all the times i heard
And all the melodies i'm missing
And all the magic words
All the beautiful words
All the beautiful voices
And all the choices we had theni hope you find you got
Those kind of choices once again

Remember when the music
Brought the night
Across the valley
And as we hum the melody
We'd be safe within the sound
So we'd sleep
To awake with dreams
And promises to keep

Little christine
We're takin' one more run
Secret heart, when the time has begun
Come to part
And hey, you're the one
And now we know
My heart is sold
And though we tried
You took me with your spanish eyes

Hey badlands
Realize
That someone else is yearning
Special sunday night
And baby there's time
Time enough to cry
With all our sad stories
And all the bad that we've done
And all the times
We've rode on for glory
And ...
And you took me with your spanish eyes

Stretch out baby
And call your daddy home
'cause i'm runnin' tonight
Couldn't be all alone
Yes i know how something died
But baby it was just for kicks
It was just for fun
Even with all the bad that we done
They can't say we didn't try
And i fell for your spanish eyes

Saturday night special
Waitin' in the sheets
Oh come on
Talk to me, my sweet
And i'll try to make it complete this timecome close and let me dry your eyes
Let me try to turn the lies
And let me kiss your spanish eyes
Let me kiss your spanish eyes
Let me kiss your spanish eyes
Let me kiss your spanish eyes
Come here, baby

Vibes man in the alley, play me your spitball serenade,
And a deeper blue and you'll be playing in your grave.
Save your notes, spend them on your blues, boy.
Help your darlin' yearlin' blues, boy.
Hit the church note, ring it!
Vibes man sing the trashcan hear your junkman singing.

Fish lady, don't you bait those tenement walls.
Don't take corner boys because they're too easy.
You were born black and blue,
You didn't have to wait for somebody to hit you.

Take my arm, i'll move with you down broadway.
Take my arm, oh honey, i'll walk with you down broadway.
I'm the young man and i'll be proud,
And i can talk real loud.
And i'm from out of town, too.

Won't you come home with me.
Won't you come home with me.
But no, cause she won't take a train,
Oh, she won't take that train.
Oh, she won't take a train.
Oh, she won't take that train.
She won't take a train.
Oh, she won't take that train.
Oh, she won't take a train.
Oh, she won't take that train.
You won't take the train.
She won't take the train.

Cause she's afraid those tracks are gonna slow her down.
And when she turns around,
I'm gonna be gone like the ???????

Well it's saturday night in new jersey
And you're feeling kinda wet
Now the summer heat is getting you worried
So you try to look as innocent as you can as you sweat
And you've got a woman on the other side of the law
But it ain't cool to go see her yet
Because her ex-old man's a city cop
Who thinks he's auditioning for dragnet
So you stand on the corner looking kinda torn
And in the blue light lounge
Where death was born
The jazz musician blows his horn

You pop a letter to your baby in richmond
'cause you're feeling pretty down
She's kinda small but at least she's a rich one
Oh, and she needs you real bad
And sometimes that's all that counts
You had a teenage band and flying hands
And oh, you was pretty big, you were pretty big in the
South
But you passed out on stage and flew into a rage
And someone tried to revive you
Mouth to mouth
You felt a pain in your chest
As you passed the crown
And in the blue light lounge
The lights went down
And the audience slipped silently out of town

Well now the atheist he burns you for laughing out loud
Because he can't understand what you're saying
And the word's out when they pushed him in the hole
Everybody knows that he went out praying
Oh, now the park is dark but the sidewalk's bright
And alive with the light of the living
Oh and mama can i walk you home tonight
'cause it's a big bad city
And this boy's got a lot for the givingi'm stranded in the jungle
First stage witness at a company killing
I'm clutching my high school diploma, shuffling my feet
Promised sixty bucks a week
And guaranteed top billing
Well you can live a life of love in new york
Only if you don't, if you don't love living
And i met this taxi driver who drives me around town
Telling tales of his back seat women

And out on the corner there's no room to move
'cause everybody's trying so hard to groove
And in the blue light lounge
The jazz musician plays his blues

Here she comes, walking down the street
You know she's walking just like she's walking to come and see
Oh she's so young
And she's so fine
I know what's on your mind, know what you want to do
But if you mess with her, i'm gonna mess with you
You better watch your step, you better stay in line

This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, this little girl, this little girl is mine
Oh oh this little girl is mine
This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, this little girl, this little girl is mine

Well if the world were mine to do with what i want to do, sir
Well i'd wrap it up in a bow and giver it all to her
Yeah and all of my love, all of the time
You know i'd hold her tight, i'd never let her go
And late at night you know i'd love her so
Yeah i'd treat her right, so she'd never mind
That

This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, this little girl, this little girl is mine

Hey ! you better watch out
I'm telling you the score
Or you're gonna be sweeping your broken heart up off the floor
Oh and that ain't all
I'm telling you my friend

I know what's on your mind, know what you wanna do
But if you mess with her, i'm gonna mess with you
You like the way she moves, you like to watch her walk
You better listen up, 'cause man this ain't just talk
You better watch your step, you better stay in line

This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, this little girl, this little girl is mine
Oh oh this little girl is mine
This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, this little girl, this little girl is mine

This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, this little girl, this little girl is mine
Oh oh this little girl is mine
This little girl is mine, oh oh
This little girl is mine, this little girl, this little girl is mine

You may have diamonds
You may have pearls
You may think you got it baby
Over all the other girls
But honey you ain't got nothing
And i'll tell you why
If you're empty as a soul can be, baby
Deep down inside

You better start savin' up
For the things that money can't buy
You better start savin' up
For the things that money can't buy
You better start savin' up
For the things that money can't buy
You better start savin' up
For the things that money can't buy

You may have a big backyard
And ruby rings
And my love's just a second-place runner, honey
To your fancy things
But what you got to hold on to
When the lights go down
You come lookin' for me baby
But i ain't nowhere around

You better start savin' up
For the things that money can't buy
You better start savin' up
For the things that money can't buy
You better start

You need a strong man, baby
To love and understand you
A man who ain't afraid, sugar
To get some dirt on his hands for you
And when you're feeling so down-hearted
And all you wanna do is cry
Ah, just come on, take my hand, baby
Together you and i

We could start savin' up
For the things that money can't buy
We'd better start savin' up
For the things that money can't buy
You better start savin' up
For the things that money can't buy
You better start savin' up
For the things that money can't buy

Here i am baby, right where you found me
Trying to break these chains that surround me
If i look a little different, it's because i've changed
Half-painted pictures are all that remains

I can't let my past mistakes
Let 'em bring me down
I ain't waitin' on no angel of mercy
I've tried my best and i can't help myself

And i'm trapped again
And i can't get out without losing you
And i'm trapped again
Why can't you feel what i'm going through
I'm trapped again
I need an answer girl, can't you see
I'm trapped again
Come and rescue me

Monday morning came so fast
What a fool to think that dreams would last
Close my eyes and it's still so clear
Remember the night girl, the world disappeared

Can't let the hand of fate
Let it drag me down
I can't get no angel of mercy
I cam to stay but i got swept away

And i'm trapped again
And i can't get out without losing you
And i'm trapped again
Why can't you feel what i'm going through
I'm trapped again
I need an answer girl, can't you see
I'm trapped again
Come and rescue me

Can't let the hand of fate
Let it drag me down
I can't get no angel of mercy
I cam to stay but i got swept away

And i'm trapped again
And i can't get out without losing you
And i'm trapped again
Why can't you feel what i'm going through
I'm trapped again
I need an answer girl, can't you see
I'm trapped again
Come and rescue me

And i'm trapped again
And i can't get out without losing you
And i'm trapped again
Why can't you feel what i'm going through
I'm trapped again

Verse 1:
I worked hard, baby, night and day
The things i had somebody took away
They took away everything i earned
But there's one lesson that'a i have learned

Chorus:
You got to hold on, little girl, to what you've got (4x)

Verse 2:
I been pushed and i been knocked down
But i picked myself right back up off the ground
And baby there's one thing that i have found
Fighting's the only way's to stand your ground

Chorus:
You got to hold on, little girl, to what you've got (4x)

Bridge:
I've been used, i've been abused
I've had, baby, my regrets
I've been lost, i paid the cost
But there's one thing i ain't gonna forget

Verse 3:
I've heard some hard lines, i've seen some cryin' times
Bad luck and trouble they been friends of mine
Got to stand straight and stare right at your face (fate?)
And play it hard before it's too late

Chorus:
You got to hold on, little girl, to what you've got (8x)

Oh billy stares at cherry in the hall
And walks out into the rain so blessed and tall
Standin' on the corner with a gun underneath his coat
Beneath the stars on the street
Oh on lexington avenue they stand
Velvet aces they case the promised land
Reachin' out across the hoods with both hands
Oh, tryin' to catch a ride

Tonight we're lovers in the cold
Running past the graveyards in the snow
Walking in the street with nowhere to go
And it's no, no, no

Oh and the getaway driver waits outside the store
He pulls away just as billy runs out the door
Oh and billy won't run anymore, no, no, no

Oh baby i can't lay the stars at your feet
Oh but i think we could take it all, just you and me
Oh come on, you'll see, there's a lot of room
For you baby, in this front seat

Tonight we're lovers on that road (in the snow)
Running past the graveyards in the snow
Walking in the street with nowhere to go
And it's oh, oh, oh

Tweeter and the monkey man were hard up for cash,
They stayed up all night selling cocaine and hash,
To an undercover cop who had a sister named jan.
For reasons unexplained she loved the monkey man.

Tweeter was a boy scout 'fore she went to vietnam,
And found out the hard way, nobody gives a damn.
They knew that they found freedom just across the jersey line,
So they hopped into a stolen car, took highway 99.

And the walls came down,
All the way to hell.
Never saw them when they're standing,
Never saw them when they fell.

The undercover cop never liked the monkey man,
Even back in childhood he wanted to see him in the can.
Jan got married at fourteen to a racketeer named bill,
She made secret calls to the monkey man from a mansion on the hill.

It was out on thunder road, tweeter at the wheel,
They crashed into paradise, they could hear them tires squeal.
The undercover cop pulled up and said "everyone of you's a liar,
If you don't surrender now it's gonna go down to the wire."

And the walls came down,
All the way to hell.
Never saw them when they're standing,
Never saw them when they fell.

An ambulance rolled up, a state-trooper close behind,
Tweeter took his gun away and messed up his mind.
The undercover cop was left tied up to a tree,
Near the souvenir stand, by the old abandoned factory.

Next day the undercover cop was hot in pursuit,
He was taking the whole thing personal, he didn't care about the loot.
Jan had told him many times, "it was you to me who taught
In jersey anything's legal, as long as you don't get caught".

And the walls came down,
All the way to hell.
Never saw them when they're standing,
Never saw them when they fell.

Some place by rahwey prison they ran out of gas,
The undercover cop had cornered them, said,
"boy you didn't think this could last?"
Jan jumped out of bed, said, "there's someplace i gotta go".
She took the gun out of the drawer, said, "it's best that you don't know".

The undercover cop was found face down in a field,
The monkey man was on the river bridge, using tweeter as a shield.
Jan said to the monkey man, "i'm not fooled by tweeter's curl,
I knew him long before he became a jersey girl."

And the walls came down,
All the way to hell.
Never saw them when they're standing,
Never saw them when they fell.

Now the town of jersey city is quieting down again,
I'm sitting in a gambling club called the lion's den.
The tv set was blown up, every bit of it is gone,
Ever since the nightly news showed that the monkey man was on.

I guess i'll go to florida and get myself some sun,
There ain't no more opportunity here, everything's been done.
Sometimes i think of tweeter, sometimes i think of jan,
Sometimes i don't think about nothing but the monkey man.

And the walls came down,
All the way to hell.
Never saw them when they're standing,
Never saw them when they fell.
