Thank you, friends Wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you I'm so grateful for all the things you helped me do.
All the ladies and gentlemen Who made this all so probable
Thank you, friends I rejoice to the skies Dear ones like you do the best I do As far as can see my eyes
All the ladies and gentlemen Who made this all so probable
Without my friends I got chaos I'm often a bead of light. Without my friends I'd be swept up high by the wind
do, do.......
All the ladies and gentlemen (I said all) All the ladies and gentlemen (I said all) All the ladies and gentlemen Who made this all so probable
Thank you friends (thank you again) Thank you friends (thank you again) Dear, dear friends (thank you again) Thank you friends (thank you again) And again, and again.... Never too late to start
Years ago, my heart was set to live, oh But i've been trying hard against unbelievable odds It gets so hard at times like now to hold on My guns they're waiting to be stuck by At my side is god
And there ain't no one gonna turn me 'round Ain't no one gonna turn me 'round
There's people around who tell you that they know The places where they send you, and it's easy to go They'll zip you up and dress you down Stand you in a row But you know you don't have to You can just say no
And there ain't no one gonna turn me 'round Ain't no one gonna turn me 'round Ain't no one gonna turn me 'round Ain't no one gonna turn me 'round
I've been built up and trusted Broke down and busted But they'll get theirs and we'll get ours Just if we can Just, ah, hold on Hold on Hold on Hold on
Years ago my heart was set to live, oh But i've been trying hard against strong odds It gets so hard at times like now to hold on Well, i'll fall if i don't fight And at my side is god
Ain't no one gonna turn me 'round Ain't no one gonna turn me 'round Ain't no one gonna turn me 'round Ain't no one gonna turn me 'round Hold on Hold on Hold on Hold on
[alternate lines of last verse:] Years ago i was all set to go And i've been trying hard against long odds It gets so hard at times like this to even hang around I can either stand or fall And i believe i'm gonna stand tall
Your eyes are almost dead Can't get out of bed And you can't sleep
You're sitting down to dress And you're a mess You look in the mirror
You look in your eyes Say you realize
Everybody goes Leaving those who fall behind Everybody goes As far as they can, They don't just care.
They stood on the stairs Laughing at your errors Your mother's dead She said, "Don't be afraid"
Your mother's dead You're on your own She's in her bed
Everybody goes Leaving those who fall behind Everybody goes As far as they can They don't just care You're a wasted face You're a sad-eyed lie You're a holocaust.
Every night I tell myself, "I am the cosmos, I am the wind" But that don't get you back again
Just when I was starting to feel okay You're on the phone I never wanna be alone
Never wanna be alone I hate to have to take you home Wanted too much to say no, no, Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah
Never wanna be alone I hate to have to take you home Want you too much to say no, no Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah
My feeling's always happening Something I couldn't hide I can't confide Don't know what's going on inside
So every night I tell myself "I am the cosmos, I am the wind" But that don't get you back again
I'd really like to see you again I really wanna see you again I'd really like to see you again I really wanna see you again I'd really like to see you again I really wanna see you again I never wanna see you again Really wanna see you again
Try to understand what I'm going through Don't blame me for what folks will do For some of us it's not a good time But you've gotta to get used to it And you'd better resign yourself
You get what you deserve You ought to find out what it's worth And you've gotta have a lot of nerve
You just do what pleases you Go on and sigh out every move You're gonna get a place in the scene All God's orphans get face in the dream
You get what you deserve You ought to find out what it's worth And you've gotta have a lot of nerve
Too bad Such a drag So much pain Down the drain A lot of us ain't got many friends
Try to understand what I'm going through Don't blame me for what folks will do For some of us it's not a good time But you've gotta to get used to it And you'd better resign yourself
You get what you deserve You ought to find out what it's worth And you've gotta have a lot of nerve You get what you deserve
Won't you let me walk you home from school? Won't you let me meet you at the pool? Maybe Friday I can Get tickets for the dance And I'll take you, ooh ooh
Won't you tell your dad get off my back? Tell him what we said 'bout Paint It Black Rock and roll is here to stay Come inside where it's okay And I'll shake you, ooh ooh
Won't you tell me what you're thinking of? Would you be an outlaw for my love? If it's so, well let me know If it's no, well I can go I won't make you, ooh ooh
I rather shoot a woman than a man I worry whether this is my last life And girl, if you're listening I'm sorry, I can't help it
O Dana O Dana, come on
I'm forevermore fighting with Steven We do our goo-goo-koos But we know Overboard and down And strung out twice
O Dana O Dana, come on
We seldom know what things are Two illusions going very far
O Dana O Dana, come on
I got busted across the bridge They rounded up every soul Now never the East Side She says, "Don't give a girl a chance" She's not afraid to take a chance
O Dana O Dana, come on
She's got a magic wand That says play with yourself before other ones
O Dana O Dana, come on, come on O, O Dana, Dana come on
In this town, television shuts off at two What can a lonely rock 'n' roller do? Bed so big, the sheets are clean You're girlfriend said you were nineteen
The Styrofoam ice bucket's full of ice Come up to my motel room and treat me nice
I don't wanna make no late night New York calls I don't wanna stare at those ugly grass mat walls Chronologically I know you're young But when you kissed me in the club you bit my tongue
I'll write a song for you and put it on my next LP Come up to my motel room and sleep with me
There's a Bible in the drawer, don't be afraid I'll put up a sign to warn the cleanup maid There's lots of soap and lots of towels Never mind those desk clerk scowls
I'll buy you breakfast, they'll think you're my wife Come up to my motel room and save my life
At nightime I go out and see the people Air goes cool and hurrying on my way And dressing so sweet, all the people to see They're looking at me, all the people to see.
And when I set my eyes on you You look like a kitty And when you're in the moon Oh you look so pretty
Caught a glance in your eyes And fell through the skies Glance in your eyes And fell through the skies
I'm walking down the freezing street Scarf goes out behind You said get them away Please don't say a word
Get me out of here Get me out of here I hate it here Get me out of here
At nightime I go out and see the people Air goes cool and hurrying on my way Glanced in your eyes and fell through the skies Dance in your eyes and fell through the skies
