I guess the dance is over now So you just curtsey and I'll bow And ask the band to play us Auld Lang Syne Then I'll just take what's left of me Right back to where it used to be And you'll go sail your magic carpet, far across the sky I wish I could have made it More like the movies for you Some pretty Technicolor way it's never been I'm sorry when I kissed you You only heard me whisper You never got to hear those violins Did you girl? No you never got to hear those violins, no The castles that you built so high Were just too steep for me to climb And I guess these dirty streets of mine Were just too rough for you I wish I could've helped you see Just one of your sweet childhood dreams But though I tried I could not make not one of them come true And I wish I could have made it More like the movies for you Some pretty Technicolor way it's never been I'm sorry when I kissed you You only heard me whisper You never got to hear those violins Did you girl? No you never got to hear those violins Oh I'm sorry when I kissed you You only heard me whisper You never got to hear those violins No you never got to hear those violins (c) 1976 Tro-Essex Music Ltd. |

She was only sixteen, only sixteen But I loved her so But she was too young to fall in love And I was too young to know We'd laugh and we'd sing and do funny things And it made our hearts glow But she was too young to fall in love And I was too young to know So why did I give my heart so fast It never will happen again But I was a mere child of sixteen I've aged a year since then She was only sixteen, only sixteen Ooh, with eyes that would glow But she was too young to fall in love And I was too young to know So why did I give my heart so fast It never will happen again But I was a mere child of sixteen I've aged a year since then Now she was only sixteen, only sixteen Ooh, but I loved that girl so But she was too young to fall in love And I was too young to know Yes, she was too young to fall in love And I, I was too young I was much too young to know |

Out of all of the nights I remember
Of all of the loves I recall There are many that live in my memory But you were the sweetest of all Wasn't it sweetest of all, babe Wasn't it sweetest of all I wasn't you're first love I wasn't your last But wasn't it sweetest of all Sometimes I still think about you Sometimes I wish that you'd call And sometimes I feel like You're lying here with me And it's still the sweetest of all So keep your goodbyes in your pocket You ain't going nowhere at all Your memory is staying here with me 'Cause you were the sweetest of all Wasn't it sweetest of all, babe Wasn't it sweetest of all Of all of the lovers You let lie beside you Wasn't it sweetest of all Wasn't it sweetest of all, babe Wasn't it sweetest of all Of all of the lovers You let lie beside you Wasn't it sweetest of all |

You'll find better love next time, baby Don't give up and I know you're gonna find Better love next time, baby Someone will be waiting down the line With better love, better love, better love, better love next time Sometimes it's better to let it all go I've been there and I think I should know So have a good cry, wash out your heart If you keep it inside it'll tear you apart Sometimes you lose but you're gonna win If you just, if you just keep hanging in Better love next time, baby Don't give up and I know you're gonna find Better love next time, baby Someone will be waiting down the line With better love, better love..... Better love next time, baby Don't give up and I know you're gonna find Better love next time, baby Someone will be waiting down the line With better love, better love.....

I've got a couple more years on you, babe,that's all.
I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall. And it ain't that I'm wiser - it's only that I've spent more time with my back to the wall. And I've picked up a couple more years on you, baby, that's all. I've walked a couple more roads than you, baby ,that's all. And I'm tired of runnin' while you're only learning to crawl. And you're headin somewhere , but I've been to somewhere and found it was nowhere at all. And I've picked up a couple of years on you baby , that's all. Now sayin' goodbye, girl don't never come easy at all. But you've got to fly 'cuz you're hearin' those young eagles call. And someday when you're older, you'll smile at a man strong and tall. And you'll say I've got a couple more years on you, baby - that's all. I've got a couple more years on you baby , that's all. You'll say I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall. It ain't that I'm wiser it's only that I've spent more time with my back to the wall. And I've picked up a couple more years on you baby, that's all. |

Oh Jesse, why have you come
I thought you would be kind enough to let me cry alone Just now as I've learned to live without your love You walked back into my life again Oh let it die, oh Jesse, please let it be Do not come and take my pride from me Have I not lost enough, is that why you came Not again Jesse, I cannot bear the pain I suppose you've come to play a game Come to deal the cards in a game I cannot win But no matter how they fall the hearts are always in your hand And I am forced to fold once again Oh let it die, oh Jesse, please let it be Do not come and take my pride from me Have I not lost enough, is that why you came Not again Jesse, I cannot bear the pain Oh let it die, oh Jesse, please let it be Do not come and take my pride from me Have I not lost enough, is that why you came Not again Jesse, I cannot bear the pain |

The tiger, he looked out of his cage and smiled He said come here boy, I want to talk to you a while He said I once was running wild and free just the same as you But it's one step from the jungle to the zoo Its one step from the jungle to the zoo You better watch out or they're gonna get you too They'll clip your claws, cut your hair, make a pussy cat out of you Its one step from the jungle to the zoo He said son when you go running through the grass You bet look out for all the hidden traps They'll feed you sweets and goodies 'til you're too fat to move Then its one step from the jungle to the zoo Its one step from the jungle to the zoo You better watch out or they're gonna get you too They'll clip your claws, yank your fangs, make a pussy cat out of you Its one step from the jungle to the zoo Only one step from the jungle to the zoo You better watch out or they're gonna get you too They'll clip your claws, cut your hair, make a pussy cat out of you Its one step from the jungle to the zoo Only one step from the jungle to the zoo You better watch out or they're gonna get you too.....

I park on a side street
Slide up the back stairs Knock on the door and whisper "It's me". Step into the darkness She waits in the shadows Oh she's so wild Willing and free. I must be crazy comin' up here again. She's got me comin' and goin' eatin' out of her hand. I should be far Far away But I'm layin' in her bed instead And I'm in In over my head In over my head. Yes I'm in In over my head In over my head. I've never tasted lips any hotter And I'm gettin' deeper with every kiss. I can't help it I want it I love how she loves it I've got to keep comin' for more of this. I must be crazy... |

Sleeping late, sleeping late
Whenever I sleep late you know I can dream Some of the strangest things that you've ever seen I could never tell you the things that I do in my head Leaving nothing unsaid, sleeping late in my bed Sleeping late, sleeping late Sometimes I'm embarrassed by devious thoughts When I'm undercover let me never get caught Crazy notions begin with that old devil grin on my face We're such a disgrace, me and my pillow-case Sleeping late, sleeping late Sleeping late, sleeping late The blissful state of sleeping late has been known to compensate And sometimes even stimulate I for one appreciate, sleeping late Ain't it great sleeping late Sleeping late, sleeping late Live and in colour, my wildest of dreams The best ones are re-runs if you know what I mean I don't believe I can wait for that clock to stop ringing in my ear It's so lovely here, I may sleep for a year Sleeping late, sleeping late Sleeping late, sleeping late..... |

Dooley Jones was doomed since the day that he was born
All because his mama was Sadie Jones Cruel words upon him ever since he was young You ain't got no daddy boy you ain't no man's son Children heard the facts at home Talked them up in school Teased him 'til his mind was bent and bruised (you ain't got no daddy Dooley Jones) Weight upon his shoulder A thorn stuck in his soul His body walks and talks But his mind has no control Dooley Jones, Dooley Jones You're no man's son, you're no mans child Spring time satisfaction This infants heart is wild Dooley walks the highways Every day for miles Babbling to birds flying by (Babbling to the birds as they fly by) Somewhere some man hides his eyes 'Cause Dooley is his child Son of seasons pleasure Forever runnin' wild Dooley Jones, Dooley Jones You're no man's son, you're no man's child Spring time satisfaction This infants heart is wild Dooley Jones, Dooley Jones You're no man's son, you're no man's child Spring time satisfaction This infants heart is wild Forever runnin' wild Oh Dooley Forever runnin' wild Spring time satisfaction Ever runnin' wild Forever runnin' wild Ever runnin' wild Forever runnin' wild |

Sal from the valley loved Al from the alley and they lived in harmony Sally played acoustic and Al, he played electric and they both took turns on lead They sang it for their friends, again and again of the places they had been But their favourite song of all was called up on the mountain Up on the mountain, up where the light breaks, that's where you'll find me Gonna leave this worrisome world and it's trouble behind me Up on the mountain, where the light breaks, that's where I'll be I've barely got time to finish this song so say farewell for me Then into the valley came a girl from the galleys, with a strange and smilin' face Al played acoustic and Sally played electric, and the gal played a hell of a bass And when they sang their harmonies, the lady dipped right in She soon moved in and lived with them up on the mountain Up on the mountain, up where the light breaks, that's where you'll find me Gonna leave this worrisome world and it's trouble behind me Up on the mountain, where the light breaks, that's where I'll be I've barely got time to finish this song so say farewell for me Now Al from the alley is gone from the valley, a sadder but wiser man And Sally from the valley and the gal from the galleys they live in mortal sin Sal plays acoustic and the gal plays electric and sometimes they hold hands Late at night you can hear them playing, up on the mountain Up on the mountain, up where the light breaks, that's where you'll find me Gonna leave this worrisome world and it's trouble behind me Up on the mountain, where the light breaks, that's where I'll be I've barely got time to finish this song so say farewell for me Hot lickin' and finger pickin' Say farewell for me (c)1976 Tro-Essex Music Ltd. |

Lay down let's explore this tenderness between us there ain't no one around at all to see us and baby would you mind if maybe you and I took a little time to find each other. Baby we got all the time in the world so why don't we just take it nice and slow we got everything we need to plant a loving seed and all the time we need to watch it grow. Stay down, stay at least until the fire stops burning at least until the room has stopped it's turning and when the embers dying low we're lying in the afterglow it'll be as sweet as anything we've known. Baby we got all the time in the world so why don't we just take it nice and slow we got everything we need to plant a loving seed and all the time we need to watch it grow. |
