Don't have to humble yourself to me I ain't your judge or your king And baby, you know you ain't no Queen of Sheba And we may not even have our dignity, no This could be just a prideful thing But baby, we can choose you know, we ain't no amoebas But: Are you ready for this thing called love Don't come from you and me, It comes from up above I ain't no porcupine, take off your kid gloves Are you ready for this thing called love And you ain't some icon carved out of soap Sent down here to clean up my reputation And baby, I ain't your prince charming Now we can live in fear, or act out of hope For some kind of peaceful situation Baby, don't know why the cry of love is so alarming But The ugly ducklings don't turn into swans And glide off down the lake Whether your sunglasses are off or on You only see the world you make Before the laws of God and the laws of man I take you for my wife, yeah To love, honour, cherish and obey, Now, I didn't have no plans to live this kind of life, no It just worked out that way And TWICE Just a crazy little thing called love Its justs a crazy little thing called love |

I dreamed I did a good job and I got well paid
Blew it all at the penny arcade A hundred dollars on a kewpie doll I guess no white chick is gonna make me crawl That's right On a TWA to the promised land Every woman, child and man Gets a Cadillac and a diamond ring Don't you know we're riding with the king? He's on a mission of mercy to the new frontier He's gonna check us all on out of here Up to that mansion on a hill Where you can get your prescription filled Any kind of pill On a TWA to the promised land Everybody come on and clap your hands Don't you just love the way he sings Don't you know we're riding with the king? We're riding with the king A red cape and shiny cold .45 I never saw his face but I saw the light Tonight everybody's getting their angel wings Don't you know we're riding with the king? Well I stepped out of a mirror at ten years old With a suit cut sharp as a razor and a heart full of gold I had a guitar hanging just about waist high I'm gonna play that thing until the day I die We're riding with the king Don't you know we're riding with the king? We're riding with the king We're riding with the, hmmmm Riding with the king |

A moment of steel
A dry-eyed house Did he say goodbye to you Or did you kick him out I know you're not afraid To go alone But this was a marriage of spirit, flesh, and bone Now whatcha gonna do When the planet shifts Whatcha gonna do Gonna slit your wrists And bleed all over the Milky Way The stars in your eyes look red today Cry love, cry love The tears of an angel The tears of a dove Spilling all over, your heart from above Cry love, cry love The trust of a woman in his hand But he was a little boy, not a man You loved him stronger than he could feel Yeah he was wrapped up in himself like an orange peel Now whatcha gonna do With the booze and the blush Whatcha gonna do When there's no rush Cop a little misery At the corner store Well one day that train of pain won't stop no more Cry love, cry love The tears of an angel The tears of a dove Spilling all over, your heart from above Cry love, cry love Throwing up ashes on the floor If this is a lesson in love Well what's it for? The heart will remember The burning fire The next time you feel the flame of desire Cry love, cry love The tears of an angel The tears of a dove Spilling all over, your heart from above Cry love, cry love Cry love, cry love The tears of an angel The tears of a dove Spilling all over, your heart from above Cry love, cry love Cry love, cry love, cry love |

When I was a boy,
I thought it just came to ya' But I never could tell what's mine So it didn't matter anyway My only pride and joy Was this racket down here Bangin' on an old guitar And singin' what I had to say I always thought our house was haunted But nobody said boo to me I never did get what I wanted Now I get what I need It's been a slow turnin' From the inside out A slow turnin' But you come about Slow learnin' But you learn to sway A slow turnin' baby Not fade away Now I'm in my car I got the radio on I'm yellin' at the kids in the back seat 'Cause they're bangin' like Charlie Watts You think you've come so far In this one horse town Then she's laughin' that crazy laugh 'Cause you haven't left the parkin' lot Time is short and here's the damn thing about it You're gonna die, gonna die for sure And you can learn to life with love or without it But there ain't no cure There's just a... It's been a slow turnin' From the inside out A slow turnin' But you come about |

Just a one more kiss she'll have to miss
This night with you Now you're guilty of this secret love As I am too You'll get used to telling lies And feeling sorry when she cries Now that the strings are attached She'll catch on We've done our part Oh, this is the way we make a broken heart Lesson number one we've just begun To hurt her so And with lesson two she'll long for you When lights are low And we get to lesson three When she gets down on her knees And begs you to stop at the door Just before She comes apart This is the way we make a broken heart BRIDGE: Now we laid a trail of tears For her to follow And we've thought of every line That she might swallow And with lesson four there'll be no more For her to bear And on some dark night we'll dim the lights On this affair Then she'll find somebody new And he'll likely hurt her too 'Cause there must be millions just like you and me Practiced in the art This is the way we make a broken heart This is the way we make a broken heart |

I got something to say little girl You might not like my style But we've been hanging around this town Just a little too long a while You say you're gonna get your act together Gonna take it out on the road But if I dont get outta here pretty soon My head's going to explode Sure I like country music I like mandolins But right now I need a telecaster Through a vibro-lux turned up to ten: Lets go to Memphis in the meantime baby Memphis in the meantime girl I need a little shot of that rhythm baby Mixed up with these country blues I wanna trade in these ol country boots For some fine italian shoes Forget the mousse and the hairspray sugar We dont need none of that Just a little dab'll do ya girl Underneath a pork pie hat Until hell freezes over Maybe you can wait that long But I dont think Ronnie Milsap's gonna ever Record this song TWICE BRIDGE: Maybe there's nothin' happenin' there Maybe there's somethin' in the air Before our upper lips get stiff Maybe we need us a big ol whiff If we could just get off-a that beat little girl Maybe we could find the groove At least we can get a decent meal Down at the Rendez-vous 'Cause one more heartfelt steel guitar chord Girl, it's gonna do me in I need to hear some trumpet and saxophone You know sound as sweet as sin And after we get good and greasy Baby we can come back home Put the cowhorns back on the cadillac And change the message on the cord-a-phone But... |

She has the wind as a witness
She has feelings that fly by night She believes in forgiveness But it's not love if it holds too tight And you can fly beside her But you gotta go where your heart says go She lets the bright lights guide her Through the rain and the drivin' snow Where she comes from she don't know She's a child of the wild blue yonder Flying out of here She's a child of the wild blue yonder Born in an angel's wing If you see her falling That's just a little trick she does She makes a dive for the pain that's calling Then heads for the clouds like a little dove She can't help her laughing She can't stop your crying days Sometimes it hurts to be having To hold on a love that surely must fly away She's a child of the wild blue yonder Flying out of here She's a child of the wild blue yonder Born in an angel's wing Medicine woman raised her Spirit father praised her Through their love she was set free From a baby kicking and screaming To a full blood woman dreaming With the power just to be She's a child of the wild blue yonder Flying out of here She's a child of the wild blue yonder Born in an angel's wing She's a child of the wild blue yonder Flying out of here She's a child of the wild blue yonder Born in an angel's wing |

I didn't say we wouldn't hurt anymore
That's how you learn, you just get burned But we don't have to feel like dirt anymore Though love's not earned, Baby it's our turn We were always looking for true north With our heads in the clouds, just a little off course I left the motor running, now if you're feeling down and out Come on Baby drive south, with the one you love Come on Baby drive south, with the one you love I'm not talkin' 'bout retreatin' little girl Gonna take our stand, in this Chevy van Windows open on the rest of the world Holdin' hands, all the way to Dixieland We've been tryin' to turn our lives around Since we were little kids, it's been wearin' us down Don't turn away now Darlin' lets fire it up and wind it out Come on Baby drive south, with the one you love Come on Baby drive south, with the one you love I heard your mama callin', I think she was just stallin' Don't know who she was talkin' to, baby me and you We could go down with a smile on, don't bother to pack your nylons Just keep them pretty legs showin', it gets hot down where we're goin' We were always looking for true north With our heads in the clouds, just a little off course I left the motor running, now if you're feeling down and out Come on baby drive, come on baby drive south, come on baby drive south Come on Baby drive south, with the one you love Come on Baby drive south, with the one you love |

Girl, you're looking fine tonight
And every Fella HAS got you in his sights What you're doing with a clown like me Is surely one of life's little mysteries So tonight I'll ask the stars above How did I ever win your love? What did I do, what did I say To turn your angel eyes my way? Well I'm the guy who never learned to dance I never even got one second glance Across the crowded room, that was close enough I could look, but I could never touch So tonight I'll ask the stars above How did I ever win your love? What did I do, what did I say To turn your angel eyes my way? Don't anybody wake me if this is a dream 'Cause she is the best thing that's ever happened to me All you fellas yeh! you can look all you like But this girl you see, she's leaving HERE with me tonight And there's just one more thing I need to know If this is love then why does it scare me so Must be something only you can see But girl, I feel it when you look at me So tonight I'll ask the stars above How did I ever win your love? What did I do, what did I say To turn your angel eyes my way? What did I do, what did I say? To turn your angel eyes my way. |

I've been taking off and landing
But this airport's closed And how much thicker this fog is gonna get God only knows Just when you think that you've got a grip Reality sneaks off, it gives you the slip As if you ever knew what it was Takin' you down the lime Tearing through the cotton fields and bus shelters Of the South runnin' helter skelter Down through the Mississippi Delta With no place to call your own Mixing up drinks with mixed feeling All along the paint was peeling Down to an Indian blanket on a pony With no rider in the flesh and bone Lookin' for his buffalo river home I've been circling the wagons Down at Time Square Trying to fill up this hole in my soul But nothing fits there Just when you think you can let it rip You're pounding the pavement in your daddy's wingtips As if you had someplace else to go Or a better way to get there Tearing through the cotton fields and bus shelters Of the South runnin' helter skelter Down through the Mississippi Delta With no place to call your own Mixing up drinks with mixed feeling All along the paint was peeling Down to an Indian blanket on a pony With no rider in the flesh and bone Lookin' for his buffalo river home Now there's only two things in life But I forget what they are It seems we're either hangin' on a moonbeam's coattails Or wishing on stars Just when you think that you've been gyped The bearded lady comes and does a double back flip And you run off and join the circus Yeah you just let that pony ride Tearing through the cotton fields and bus shelters Of the South runnin' helter skelter Down through the Mississippi Delta With no place to call your own Mixing up drinks with mixed feeling All along the paint was peeling Down to an Indian blanket on a pony With no rider in the flesh and bone Lookin' for his buffalo river home Lookin' for his buffalo river home |

Down here the river, meets the sea
And in the sticky heat I feel ya' open up to me Love comes out of nowhere baby, just like a hurricane And it feels like rain And it feels like rain Lying here, underneath the stars right next to you And I'm wondering who you are and How do you do? How do you do, baby? The clouds roll in across the moon And the wind howls out your name And it feels like rain And it feels like rain We never going to make that bridge tonight baby Across Lake Ponchartrain And it feels like rain And it feels like rain So batten down the hatch baby And leave your heart up your sleeve It looks like we're in for stormy weather, That ain't no cause for us to leave Just lay here, in my arms Let it wash away the pain And it feels like rain And it feels like rain |

One in one and one makes three
Baby, you know that it ain't no big mystery Just from where you're at You never had these feelings to burn You took my love and baby you turned Is it all in my mind Or is it a cruel game This love in flame I was up so high Where eagles fly I just never looked down Oh, but you were down there With the wind in your hair And your feet on the ground We might have had the stars in the sky You never had the courage to try Is it all in my mind Or is it a cruel game This love in flame Love in flames Love in flames Is it the same As passion flooding in the name of love Or is it fear of pain When love comes crashing down from above Tonight I lay me down to sleep On your side of the bed I pray so hard for somebody to keep Keep you out of my head But it's no use the sheets take your form Into the dawn the ashes still warm Is it all in my mind Or is it a cruel game This love in flame Love in flames |

He threw one down from the top of the stairs
Beautiful women were standing everywhere They all got wet when he smashed that thing But off in the dark you could hear somebody sing It breaks my heart to see those stars Smashing a perfectly good guitar I dont know who they think they are Smashing a perfectly good guitar It started back in 1963 His mama wouldnt buy him that new red harmony He settled for a sunburst with a crack But hes still trying to break his mamas back Oh it breaks my heart to see those stars Smashing a perfectly good guitar I dont know who they think they are Smashing a perfectly good guitar How he loved that guitar just like a girlfriend But every good thing comes to an end Now he just sits in his room all day Whistling every note he ever played Well there outta be a law with no bail Smash a guitar and you go to jail With no chance for early parole You dont get out until you get some soul Oh it breaks my heart to see those stars Smashing a perfectly good guitar I dont know who they think they are Smashing a perfectly good guitar Late at night the end of the road He wishes he still had that old guitar to hold He'd rock it like a baby in his arms Never let it come to any harm Oh it breaks my heart to see those stars Smashing a perfectly good guitar I dont know who they think they are Smashing a perfectly good guitar |

I woke up in a hotel and I didn't know what to do
I turned the TV on and wrote a letter to you The news was talkin' 'bout a dragnet up on the interstate Said they were lookin' for a Cadillac with Tennessee plates Since I left California baby, things have gotten worse Seems the land of opportunity for me is just a curse Tell that judge in Bakersfield that my trial will have to wait Down here they're lookin' for a Cadillac with Tennessee plates It was somewhere in Nevada, it was cold outside She was shiverin' in the dark, so I offered her a ride Three bank jobs later, four cars hot wired We crossed the Mississippi like an oil slick fire If they'd known what we was up to they wouldn't 'a let us in When we landed in Memphis like original sin Up Elvis Presley Boulevard to the Graceland gates See we were lookin' for a Cadillac with Tennessee plates Well, there must have been a dozen of them parked in that garage And there wasn't one Lincoln and there wasn't one Dodge And there wasn't one Japanese model or make Just pretty, pretty Cadillacs with Tennessee plates She saw him singing once when she was seventeen And ever since that day she's been living in between I was never king of nothin' but this wild weekend Anyway he wouldn't care, hell he gave them to his friends Well this ain't no hotel I'm writin' you from It's the Tennessee prison up at Brushy Mountain Where yours sincerely's doin' five to eight Stampin' out my time makin' Tennessee plates |

You've been a good girl
You've been a bad girl You're not a girl anymore Deep in a picture show Unbuttoned in the last row You watched the grown-ups win the war Now that they've got you where they want you You're just combin' your hair The alteration's done,but you're havin' way too much fun They want to touch you but you just don't care Take off your uniform They see what they want to see You should have never been born You'd better stay with me Your replacement Waits in the basement They've got her down to your smile She writes those letters too She thinks she's better than you She says you're just a foolish child They got her smilin' while she's dialing She's such a clever machine She'd fit in anywhere, now that her vision's impaired She listens up, but she don't know what they mean Take off your uniform They see what they want to see You should have never been born You'd better stay with me Everyone's happy with your daily activities They like that tone in your voice Now that you're finally an adult in America You're too dumb to have a choice Take off your uniform They see what they want to see You should have never been born Take off your uniform They see what they want to see You should have never been born You'd better stay with me |

Baby can you teach me - how to
Baby can you reach me, I'm calling out for you Underneath your window tonight I know I ain't no Romeo, so help me make it right If I can get this message through to your heart It would be more than I could understand No beginner ever skipped the start And I want to learn all than I possibly can Because I don't know much I don't know much, much about love Out of touch I don't know much, much about love Baby when you kiss me will I see That little wish list you've been keeping for me I'm rushing like a fool, babe, 'cause I know If they taught you this in school You must have made the honour roll If I can get this message through to your heart It would be more than I can understand No beginner ever skipped the start And I want to learn more than I possibly can Because I don't know much I don't know much, much about love Out of touch I don't know much, much about love I graduated, baby, I can read But the pages of the heart come difficult for me I speak my mind girl, everyday But the language of love Well, I don't know how to say Because I don't know much I don't know much, much about love Out of touch I don't know much, much about love Because I don't know much I don't know much, much about love Out of touch I don't know much, much about love |
