I was walking on down the alley When a face I've never seen Came so from deep in the darkness And his mouth came on real mean And I saw that he'd been liquored And he staggered up to -- you know -- he staggered up to his feet And he said, "Boy, you'd better move real slow And gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." Being born and raised in New York There ain't nothing you won't see 'Cause the streets are filled with bad goings-on And you know that's no place to be But my car broke down in the evening You know it just stopped stone cold Stopped stone cold in the street And a dirty mean man with sharp glass eyes He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." Being born and raised in New York There ain't nothing you won't see 'Cause the streets are filled with bad goings-on And you know that's no place to be But my car broke down in the evening You know it just stopped stone cold Stopped stone cold in the street And a dirty mean man with a shotgun in his hand He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed Wasn't that strange Wasn't that strange indeed He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." He said, "Gimme your money please." (Awww!) |

Walk your street And I'll walk mine And should we meet Would you spare me some time 'Cause you should see my world Meet my kind Before you judge our minds Blue collar Sleep your sleep I'm awake and alive I keep late hours Your nine to five So I would like you know I need the quiet hours To create in this world of mine Blue collar I'd like you to know at four in the morning Things are coming mine All I've seen, all I've done And those I hope to find I'd like to remind you at four in the morning My world is very still The air is fresh under diamond skies Makes me glad to be alive You keep that beat And I keep time Your restless face Is no longer mine I rest my feet While the world's in heat And I wish that you could do the same Blue collar Blue collar |

Good Bye, Hard Life Don't Cry Would you let it ride?You can't see the mornin', but I can see the light Ride ride ride let it ride While you've been out runnin' I've been waitin' half the night Ride ride ride let it ride And would you cry if I told you that I lied and would you say goodbye Or would you let it ride? And would you cry if I told you that I lied and would you say goodbye Or would you let it ride? Babe my life is not complete I never see you smile Ride ride ride let it ride Baby you want the forgivin' kind and that's just not my style Ride ride ride let it ride I've been doin' things worthwhile, you've been bookin' time Ride ride ride let it rideWould you let it ride (Drum) Ride ride ride let it ride Would you let it ride? |

We rented a truck and a semi to go Travel down the long and winding road Look on the map I think we've been here before, Close the doors let's roll once more. Cop on the corner, look he's startin' to write I don't need no ticket so I screamed out of sight, Drove so fast that my eyes can't see, Look in the mirror is he still followin' me? Let it roll down the highway Let it roll down the highway, Roll, roll. Look at the sign, we're in the wrong place Come on boys, let's get ready to race 454 coming over the hill The man on patrol, is going to give us a bill. The time's real short, you know the distance is long I'd rather have a jet but it's not in the song Climb back in the cab, cross your fingers for luck We gotta keep movie' if we're going to make a buck. Let it roll down the highway Let it roll down the highway Roll, Let it roll Let it roll down the highway Let it roll down the highway Roll,roll roll down the highway Let it roll down the highway Roll,roll roll Let it roll down the highway Let it roll down the highway Roll,roll roll |

There was a man who owned a part of town
Approached me in his own saloon and said, "hey boy, sit down" "Was I unemployed or would I like a job" He said he owned the stageline, and were men who liked to rob He offered me his daughter's hand, advance of salary A fancy gun, a pair of boots, a share in the company Now I ride shotgun on his stageline I ride shotgun on his life I ride shotgun on his money I ride shotgun on his wife Shotgun ... rider ... shotgun ... rider There were outlaws who waited on the trail For the stagecoach daily run with payrolls and the mail They spied our dust and saddled up to ride They saw the worried driver with me sittin' at his side They circled 'round the stagecoach, it was their daily fun Until they saw the driver smile and spied my trusty gun Now I ride shotgun on his stageline I ride shotgun on his life I ride shotgun on his money I ride shotgun on his wife Shotgun ... rider ... shotgun ... rider We caught the outlaws and took them back to jail Sent for the county marshall and would not post a bail Sent 'em up the river .... ha! ... that sure cleaned up the town I was elected sheriff and the mayor asked me down I now own half the stageline, and half the rest of town I go to church on Sunday ... I think I've settled down Now I ride shotgun on his stageline I ride shotgun on his life I ride shotgun on his money I ride shotgun on his wife I ride shotgun on his stageline I ride shotgun on his life I ride shotgun on his money I ride shotgun on his wife Shotgun ... rider ... shotgun ... rider ...shot Gonna shoot 'em out ... don't get in my way |

Walked in thru the brass door Of an unassuming bar Bought a drink, mixed around Same routine so far I saw her, she saw me Then she smiled openly I sat too long The chance was gone But she didn't wait Saw me hesitate She drew right in I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love Said she'd seen to many Mixed up scenes before To ever think of love Til tonight, you walked in I saw you, you saw me You got those things I've never seen Said she knew I'd take all night to make a move She had more in sight than being polite I said, me too I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love Oh baby what'cha do to me Everything feels alright I never knew it could be this way Til we got lucky that night I'm in you, you're in me Just one thought, just one need Then I knew what it was I had to do Cause it came to me That all I need in life, is you I'm in love, I'm in love I'm in love, I'm in love Love I'm in love, I'm in love Love I'm in love |

Look at me, I was just a man who was lonely
Had some time on my hands The world's greatest plans in my jeans I saw you, you came to me like you knew me I don't think you knew that it threw me I didn't know what to say to you then I knew it would end up in... 1st part of chorus: Heartaches Visions of loving you and Heartaches Wishing we hadn't met for my sake Seeing you here, is all I can stand Every night I stand on the street where you left me Standing in with the crowd Trying not to look like I'm hangin' around There you are, I see you once more and you're lovely I try to tell myself, I'm not hungry But every time you sway I get carried away I need you more every day and my... 1st part of chorus 2nd part of chorus: I'm only a man who has heartaches Deep burning pain as my heart breaks Watchin' you walk sets my soul aflame I could put the blame on the world's oldest game I know the ways, I know that to pay won't relieve me Cause it's not from the heart It's only the act not the flame I only wait and hope for the love that you're holding Deep down inside you've been holdin' for that special time But I don't see a sign, it's just not your mind And my... Heartaches Visions of loving you and Heartaches Wishing we hadn't met for my sake Seeing you here, is all I can stand I'm only a man who has heartaches Deep burning pain as my heart breaks Watchin' you walk sets my soul aflame I could put the blame on the world's oldest game Heartaches yeah yeah Heartaches, heartaches Let me tell you about my... Heartaches, heartaches, heartaches Let me tell you about my... Heartaches, heartaches, oh (etc.) |
