The river whispers in my ear
I've hardly a penny to my name The heavens have never seemed so near All of my body glows with flame The tempest struggles in the air And to myself alone I sing It could sink me then and there I can hear the echoes ring I tried to find one smiling face To drive the shadow from my head I'm stranded in this nameless place Lying restless in a heavy bed Tell me straight out if you will Why must you torture me within? Why must you come down off of your high hill? Throw my fate to the clouds and wind Far away in a silent land Secret thoughts are hard to bear Remember me, you'll understand Emotions we can never share You trampled on me as you passed Left the coldest kiss upon my brow All of my doubts and fears have gone at last I've nothing more to tell you now I walk by tranquil lakes and streams As each new season's dawn awaits I lay awake at night with troubled dreams The enemy is at the gate Beneath the thunder blasted trees The words are ringin' off your tongue The ground is hard in times like these Stars are cold, the night is young The rocks are bleak, the trees are bare Iron clouds go floating by Snowflakes fallin' in my hair Beneath the gray and stormy sky The evenin' sun is sinkin' low The woods are dark, the town isn't new They<i>ll drag you down, they'll run the show Ain't no telling what they'll do Tell ol' Bill when he comes home Anything is worth a try Tell him that I'm not alone That the hour has come to do or die All the world I would defy Let me make it plain as day I look at you now and I sigh How could it be any other way?</i> |

Her hair is Harlowe gold,
Her lips sweet surprise Her hands are never cold, She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll turn her music on you, You won't have to think twice She's pure as New York snow, She got Bette Davis eyes And she'll tease you, She'll unease you All the better just to please you She's precocious and she knows just What it takes to make a pro blush She got Greta Garbo stand off sighs, She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll let you take her home, It whets her appetite She'll lay you on her throne, She got Bette Davis eyes She'll take a tumble on you, Roll you like you were dice Until you come out blue, She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll expose you, when she snows you Off your feet with the crumbs she throws you She's ferocious and she knows just What it takes to make a pro blush All the boys think she's a spy, She's got Bette Davis eyes And she'll tease you, She'll unease you All the better just to please you She's precocious, and she knows just What it takes to make a pro blush All the boys think she's a spy, She's got Bette Davis eyes... |

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed Whatever colors you have in your mind I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile Until the break of day, let me see you make him smile His clothes are dirty but his hands are clean And you're the best thing that he's ever seen Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile Why wait any longer for the world to begin You can have your cake and eat it too Why wait any longer for the one you love When he's standing in front of you Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead I long to see you in the morning light I long to reach for you in the night Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead |

Well, the pressure's down, the boss ain't here,
He gone North, for a while, They say that vanity got the best of him But he sure left here in style. By the way, that's a cute hat, And a smile so hard to resist What's a sweetheart like you doin' in a dump like this? You know, I once knew a woman who looked like you, She wanted a whole man, not just a half, She used to call me sweet daddy when I was only a child, You kind of remind me of her when you laugh. In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear, It's done with a flick of the wrist. What's a sweetheart like you doin' in a dump like this? You know, a woman like you should be at home, That's where you belong, Taking care of somebody nice, Who don't know how to do you wrong. Just how much abuse will you be able to take? Well, there's no way to tell by that first kiss. What's a sweetheart like you doin' in a dump like this? You know you can make a name for yourself, You can hear them tires squeal, You could be known as the most beautiful woman Who ever crawled across cut glass to make a deal. You know, news of you has come down the line Even before ya came in the door. They say in your father's house, there's many mansions Each one of them got a fireproof floor. Snap out of it, baby, people are jealous of you, They smile to your face, but behind your back they hiss. What's a sweetheart like you doin' in a dump like this? Got to be an important person to be in here, honey, Got to have done some evil deed, Got to have your own harem when you come in the door, Got to play your harp until your lips bleed. They say that patriotism is the last refuge To which a scoundrel clings. Steal a little and they throw you in jail, Steal a lot and they make you king. There's only one step down from here, baby, It's called the land of permanent bliss. What's a sweetheart like you doin' in a dump like this? |
