unknown

I know that i seem strange to you sometimes
And who is it in here, you have often thought
But what can i tell you
That you don't know already?
Yes, even the times like this
Will roll away

But i love you (i love you)
I love you (i love you)
That's all that i ever really wanted

I know that it will work out all the same
And whoever it is in here can overcome the pain
A true friend's shoulder to lean on
I'll make it through
And over and over
I feel for you

But i love you (i love you)
I love you (i love you)
That's all that i ever really wanted

Oh yeah, you know that sometimes a man
He has nowhere to lay his head

But what can i tell you
That you don't know already?
Yes, even the worst time like this
Will blow away

But i love you (i love you)
I love you (i love you)
That's all that i ever really wanted

Oh yeah, you know that sometimes a man
He has nowhere to lay his head, nowhere, i said nowhere
Nowhere to lay his head

Oh what can i tell you
That you don't know already?

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

(speech:)
"ok here we go, for this
We got a b-side to make, ladies and gentlemen,
We haven't got much time now so we better get
Right on with it"

I don't care anymore
And i'll kick down anybody's door
To hold you in my arms once more
I'd go anywhere
Y'know i don't care

If your man should get uptight
'cause we've been alone for most of the night
Now realize it's our right
To get back up them stairs
Y'know i don't care

There's a line i can draw
That often leaves me wanting more
But it's not so often that i feel so sure
Nothing i can do
To stop me falling more in love with you

It can't be so bad
What you want that you do not have
It's got you too upset now
I don't think it's unfair
Y'know i don't care
Anymore
And i'll kick down anybody's door
To hold you in my arms once more
I'd go anywhere
Y'know i

(very nice, tony)

You walk in, half past nine
Lookin like a queen
Serving me with papers
Calling me obscene
Woman i've tried so hard
Just to do my best
They're gonna put me in the poor house
And you'll take all the rest

Up all day, down all night
Working on the job
Everything i do is wrong
I always end up [..]
Woman i try so hard
Done all i can do.
They're gonna put me in the poor house
Keep all the best for you.

Ooh, in the poor house
Ooh, in the poor house

If a drove a pulpwood truck
Would you love me more?
Will you bring me diamonds
And hang around my door
Woman, i've done my best
They're ain't much left for me
They're gonna put me in the poor house
And throw away the key (in the poor house)

Ooh, in the poor house

You walked in, half past nine
Lookin like a queen
Serving me with papers
Calling me obscene
Woman i've tried so hard
Just to do my best
They're gonna put me in the poor house
And you'll take all the rest

In the poor house
Ooh, in the poor house
In the poor house
Ooh, in the poor house

Crimson flames tied through my ears
Rollin' high and mighty traps
Pounced with fire on flaming roads
Using ideas as my maps
"we'll meet on edges, soon," said i
Proud 'neath heated brow.
Ah, but i was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth
"rip down all hate," i screamed
Lies that life is black and white
Spoke from my skull. i dreamed
Romantic facts of musketeers
Foundationed deep, somehow.
Ah, but i was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

Girls' faces formed the forward path
From phony jealousy
To memorizing politics
Of ancient history
Flung down by corpse evangelists
Unthought of, though, somehow.
Ah, but i was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

A self-ordained professor's tongue
Too serious to fool
Spouted out that liberty
Is just equality in school
"equality," i spoke the word
As if a wedding vow.
Ah, but i was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

In a soldier's stance, i aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not that i'd become my enemy
In the instant that i preach
My existence led by confusion boats
Mutiny from stern to bow.
Ah, but i was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats
Too noble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking
I had something to protect
Good and bad, i define these terms
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow.
Ah, but i was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

It's sunshine life for me
If i could get away from this cloud over me
Seems to just follow me around

There's a good life had for free
When you're out in the country
That's what i could use
If i could get away there soon

It's a sunshine life for me
If i could get away from this cloud over me
Seems to just follow me around

There's a good life had at sea
If you're not in the navy
That's the life for you
Sail away raymond, sail away

Now most folks just bore me
Always imposing, and i'd rather meet a tree
Somewhere out in the cornfield

And it's a sunshine . . .
It's a sunshine life for me
If i could get away from this cloud over me
Seems to just follow me around

I get rattled every time we meet
I get rattled even in my sleep
I get rattled, baby, over you

I get twisted, i get turned around
I get twisted, and i'm up then i'm down
I get twisted, baby, over you

Well, baby, baby, baby won't you save one night for me
Baby, baby, baby is there something wrong with you
Baby, baby, baby this is out of my control
It may look like nothing's wrong but deep down in my soul
I'm twisted - shaken - rattled
I get rattled, baby, over you

Well, baby, baby, baby won't you save one night for me
Baby, baby, baby is there something wrong with you
Baby, baby, baby this is out of my control
It may look like nothing's wrong but deep down in my soul
I'm twisted - shaken - rattled
I get rattled, baby, over you

I get shaken, i'm torn up by the roots
Yeah, i'm shakin', way down in my boots
I get rattled, baby, over you
I get rattled, baby, over you

Rattled, baby, over you

Mama take this badge off of me
I can't use it any more
It's gettin' dark, too dark to see
I feel like i'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door

Mama, wipe the blood from my face
I'm sick and tired of the war
[...]
I feel like i'm knockin on heave's door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door

Put your hand on your head
Put your foot in the air
Then you hop around in the room
In your underwear
Ain't ever bin nothin' quite like this
Come on baby do the wilbury twist

Lift your other foot up
Fall on your ass
Get back up,
Put your teeth in a glass
Ain't ever bin nothin' quite like this
It's a magical thing called the wilbury twist

Roll up your rug,
Dust your broom
Ball the jack,
Howl at the moon
Ain't ever bin nothin' quite like this
Everybody's tryin' to do the wilbury twist

Turn your lights down low
Put your blindfold on
You'll never know
Where your friends have gone
Could be years before you're missed
Everybody's trying to do the wilbury twist

It's a different dance
For you all to do
Spin your body like a screw
Better not forget it on your shopping list
You can stop and buy one it's the wilbury twist

When every song is sung
When every bell's been rung
When every picture's hung up
I'll still love you

When every wind has blown
When every seed is sown
When everything is known
Then i'll still love you

You know i'll love you, yes i will
You know that i'll love you
Love you, love you, yes i will

You know i love you, yes i do
When times get too hard
You know i'll be there loving you

When every soul is free
When every eye can see
When people all agree
Then i'll still love you

Well i woke up this morning
The place was such a reck
I couldn't reach the bathroom
Thought i'd 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
There's not much compensation
When everything's 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
There's 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 mustn't leave a trace
The landlord's breathing down my neck
He say's it's a disgrace
So i said 'put it in a cool, dry, place.'

If your life's not right, doesn't satisfy you
Don't get the breaks like some of us do
Better work it out; find where you've gone wrong
Better do it soon as you don't have long

Get out of sour milk sea
You don't belong there
Get back to where you should be
Find out what's going on there

If you want the most from everything you do
In the shortest time your dreams come true
In no time at all it makes you more aware
Very simple process takes you there

Get out of sour milk sea
You don't belong there
Get back to where you should be
Find out what's going on there

Looking for release from limitation?
There's nothing much without illumination
Can fool-around with every different cult
There's only one way brings result

Get out of sour milk sea
You don't belong there
Get back to where you should be
Find out what's going on there

You always said that i'd be back again
That i'd come running to you in the end
I thought that you were on your own
And now i find you're not alone

I'll see you through the rain
Through the heartache and pain
It hurts like never before
You're 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

I'll see you through the rain
Through the heartache and pain
It hurts like never before
You're 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, you're not alone

I'll see you through the rain
Through the heartache and pain
It hurts like never before
You're not alone any more

I've wandered around with nothing more than time on my hands
I was lost in the night with no sight of you
And at times it was so blue and lonely
Heading for the light

Been close to the edge, hanging by my fingernails
I've rolled and i've tumbled through the roses and the thorns
And i couldn't see the sign that warned me, i'm
Heading for the light

Ooh - i didn't see that big black cloud hanging over me
And when the rain came down i was nearly drowned
I didn't know the mess i was in

My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway
I don't see nothing new but i feel a lot of change
And i get the strangest feeling, as i'm
Heading for the light

Ooh - my hands were tired
Jokers and fools on either side
But still i kept on till the worst had gone
Now i see the hole i was in

My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway
I don't see nothing new but i feel a lot of change
And i get the strangest feeling, as i'm
Heading for the light

I see the sun ahead, i ain't never looking back
All the dreams are coming true as i think of you
Now there's nothing in the way to stop me
Heading for the light

Now there's nothing in the way to stop me
Heading for the light

You took my breath away
I want it back again
Look at the mess i'm in
I don't know what to say
I don't know how to feel
You don't care anyway
All i can do is wait
You took my breath away

You took this song of mine
And changed the middle bit
It used to sound alright
But now the words don't fit
It's getting hard to rhyme
Impossible to play
I've tried it many times
You took my breath away

One day when the sun is shining
There will be that silver lining

You knocked my headlights out
So turn them on again
I can't see where i'm going
I can't tell where i've been
I don't know how to feel
This hasn't been my day
Seems like i've lost a wheel
You took my breath away

You took my breath away
You took my breath away
You took my breath away

While you're strolling down the fairway
Showing no remorse
Glowing from the poisons
They've sprayed on your golf course
While you're busy sinking birdies
And keeping your scorecard
The devil's 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 you're doing
Or what you have to guard
The devil's been busy in your back yard

Sometimes you think you're crazy
But you know you're only mad
Sometimes you're better off not knowing
How much you've been had

You see your second cousin
Wasted in a fight
You say he had it coming
You couldn't do it right
You're in a western movie, playing the part
The devil's been busy in your back yard

Sometimes they say you're wicked
But you know that can't be bad
Sometimes you're better off not knowing
It'll only make you sad

They're coming down picadilly
Dripping at the dash
Wasting sticky willy
Covering him with their cash
They just might not have noticed, they've been beating him so hard
And the devil's been busy in your back yard
Devil's been busy in your back yard
Devil's been busy in your back yard

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 before 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

Someplace by rahway prison they ran out of gas
The undercover cop had cornered them said "boy, you didn't think that this could last"
Jan jumped out of bed said "there's someplace i gotta go"
She took a gun out of the drawer and said "it's best if 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 ever 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 been blown up, every bit of it is gone
Ever since the nightly news show 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
Sometime i think of tweeter, sometime i think of jan
Sometime 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
