Well Lord I got to raise a fuss
Lord I got to raise a holler Well I been working all summer Just to try and earn a dollar Well Lord I tried to call my baby I tried to get a date Sometimes I wonder What I'm a-gonna do Lord there ain't no cure For the summertime blues Well my mom and papa told me "Son, you got to make some money Well if you wanna to use the car and go riding next Sunday" Well Lord I didn't go to work I told the boss I was sick, he said Sometimes I wonder What I'm a-gonna do Lord there ain't no cure For the summertime blues I got to take three weeks I got to have a fun vacation I got to take my problem To the United Nations I done told my congressman And he said quote "Dig this, boy" Sometimes I wonder What I'm a-gonna do Lord there ain't no cure For the summertime blues I got to take three weeks I got to take a fun vacation I'd like to take my problem To the United Nation I done told my congressman And he said quote "Dig this, boy" Sometimes I wonder What I'm a-gonna do Lord there ain't no cure For the summertime blues Oh, ain't no cure |

So you think that you have found
A better life that you should live And you're through givin' it all away I wish there's something I could say Like the time you looked into the mirror And saw someone else lookin' back I wish I could find the words But there's nothing that even comes close 'cause there ain't nobody ever looked at me Without lookin' right through me There ain't nobody ever looked at me Without lookin' right by me And you can't go when the knife feels like justice When the sun dies down, the air grows cold And the moon plays tricks in the night Crawlin' low like a snake out of sight Your guide is the northern light You wanna laugh say I'm insane Don't have the sense to come in from the rain I know how to keep myself between the drops There ain't nobody ever looked at me Without lookin' right through me There ain't nobody ever looked at me Without lookin' right by me And you can't go when the knife feels like justice Slip away Slip away Slip away Slip away So you think that you have won me over By settin' me on fire With the sound of your beating heart And you're burnin' hot desire Like the time I looked at your reflections And saw someone else lookin' back It's a shame things happen that way 'cause there's no one that even comes close And there ain't nobody ever looked at me Without lookin' right through me There ain't nobody ever looked at me Without lookin' right by me And you can't go when the knife feels like justice I said you can't go on when the blade tears inside you You can't go on when the knife feels like justice |

I don't want to go to sleep and toss and turn all night
I don't want to look up and see shadows I believe all right Don't want to get lost on a road so long Your legs get tired and you fall to the ground On the boulevard of broken dreams Don't want to get drunk just to sleep at night My head starts spinning a triple with wine Don't want to get up and go to work each day Come back home on my knees and prey On the boulevard of broken dreams I wonder where you are Are you satisfied To go through life with a chill in your soul And a memory that lives by your side Don't want you no more heard enough one day So take me on down where that rock and roll plays Don't want you to vow how could you lie With all my life I called you daddy On the boulevard of broken dreams I wonder where you are Are you satisfied To go through life with a chill in your soul And a memory that lives by your side Don't want you no more heard enough one day So take me on down where that rock and roll plays Don't want to get lost on a road so long Your legs get tired and you fall to the ground On the boulevard of broken dreams On the boulevard of broken dreams On the boulevard of broken dreams |

I heard your voice in echo park last night
I wasn't sure how many times it rang out through the night I felt the breeze and the hearts through the air I felt your eyes lookin' right through me I heard your voice in echo park last night Was a summer to remember You were something to behold A regular marilyn monroe I heard your voice in echo park last night I used to swim in echo park lake all night We took our clothes off stayed out half the night Well come on now We're gonna do it right I'll take your hand and we can swim together right now all night It was summer to remember You were something to behold A regular marilyn monroe I heard your voice in echo park last night I felt the breeze and the hearts through the air I felt your eyes lookin' right through me I heard your voice in echo park last night Well if I wanted to come back I think there's something you should know I wouldn't change a thing oh no no no I heard your voice in echo park last night I heard your voice in echo park last night I heard your voice in echo park last night I heard your voice in echo park last night |

I used to search for the ideal girl
The perfect little prettyness I used to search for the ideal world But frankly think it don't exist So many times I get so afraid So many ways I felt so betrayed We get together on a saturday night And watch the whole world cave in Little girl I wanna know What you look for in a man Is he tall, tough and handsome With a continental teint I just wanna be around When the big world hits the ground I don't wanna make a sound When the sky comes tumblin' Sky comes tumblin' down I used to worry about the job that I had I barely made enough to survive Oh man I'm worried about the life that I live Sometimes I barely made it home alive But now I don't need to worry There's no need to rush there's no need to hurry You don't need a new job you don't need a new wife You don't need to go far in your life Little girl I wanna know What you look for in a man Does he have a lot of money Even more than you can spend I just wanna be around When the big world hits the ground I don't wanna make a sound When the sky comes tumblin' Sky comes tumblin' down I used to play in a dead end band I always ended up on my own But now I play in a skeleton band Nothing but skin and bones Oh no I don't need sedation I got my daily dose of radiation We get together on a saturday night And watch each other's hair fall out Little girl I wanna know What you look for in a man Does he sell a lot of records With his californian band I just wanna be around When the big world hits the ground I don't wanna make a sound When the sky comes tumblin' Sky comes tumblin' down |

Where does it say
All the love that we made must disappear And who made the rule That the one who is cruel won't cry the tears Well we woke up unsatisfied Got out of bed and said goodbye But don't leave me here dyeing on the cross of love Don't leave me here dyeing on the cross of love I got down on my knees and prayed to the lord above Don't leave me now don't you realize You can't make out of love a sacrifice Don't leave me here dyeing on the cross of love Who pays the cost If the love that is lost goes unredeemed And why should I care If this cross that I bare is destiny My heart was pure my love was strong Forgive me if I've done you wrong But don't leave me here dyeing on the cross of love Don't leave me here dyeing on the cross of love I got down on my knees and prayed to the lord above Don't leave me now don't you realize You can't make out of love a sacrifice Don't leave me here dyeing on the cross of love Where does it say All the love that we made, must disappear |

You act with your heart
I can see your stars I can see riding through Well I'm just like you Every tear that falls I remember You say what you mean Even when it hurts You should know one thing The fire comes with the stake Every tear that falls I remember Every tear that falls I remember You know your a fool Thinking back you all Never feel afraid Well I'm just like you Every tear that falls I remember Every tear that falls I remember Every tear that falls I remember |

Well c'mon, man, I hear that Bobby's back
from being upstate He learned his lesson, so they say, well I guess we'll wait and see He's got a new corvette, he says it does a hundred and twenty, easy Got some catchin' up to do, some crazy score to settle When I first heard Bobby's back, the first thing that I thought of Was how his chic like up and left with some guy she just met I don't think that he knew it yet, man it sent a chill right through me The only thing he ever loved just left with his last paycheck Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he was the last in line Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All my life, he was a friend of mine Bobby's face looked pale and thin, as if some ghost had haunted him When he asked me what was new, I wasn't quite sure what to say How come everybody's stickin' bloody fingers in my face? I almost cried and said, "They sure don't make cars like they use to" Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he was the losing kind Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he never had peace of mind I shook him hard and said, "Listen, man, you can't go back in time again" And never 'til the day that I die did I see tears fall from Bobby's eyes Four or five years had gone by when I read about how Bobby died He crashed his car into a wall, messed up on drugs and alcohol Another brother led astray, well I'lll be damned if I go that way Say a little prayer for him he lived a life you just can't win Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he was the last in line Bobby's back, maybe for good this time Bobby's gone, he was a friend of mine |

Phantom-Setzer
Get kicked out for coming home at dawn, Mom and Dad cursed the day you were born, Throw your clothes into a duffle bag shoutin' as ya slam the door home is a drag Who can I turn to and where can I stay ? I heard a place is open all night and all day There's a place you can go where the cops don't know You can act real wild they don't treat you like a child Runaway boys Your hair's all greasy and you feel like a slob, You're only fifteen and you can't get a job, Go into the luncheonette and shoot a few games Losing all your quarters, man it's always the same Steal a couple of bucks to buy a new toy, Slip into the alley with the Runaway boys Runnin' faster, faster all the time You're under age and God knows, that's a crime ! Runaway boys |

It's a late cool autumn evening
And the sunset melts into night With a v-twin throbbing beneath me And my head's spinning allright Ritchie and me we started as kids In a rock 'n' roll band on the street where we lived It's a long hard ride till the morning As the trees and wind start to sing Chains around your heart that bind Break away and leave them behind Well once there was a time in this rock 'n' roll dream This here town would be rip apart at the seams Now I'm out of money and billy's out of work Eddie's pushin' pencils for the county clerk Everybody's job is getting pushed out of town Life is just knockin' 'em down Boyhood dreams are run into the ground Long dark shadows hang over this town Cast away the chains that bleed Break away and I leave you free Take my hand come leave with me As nighttime fades away We'll ride the hills and desert sand Cross the barren land All the families have all gone Their jobs went before them I'm sure They knocked down the corner barber shop And put up a super triple level parking lot There once was a time you could vote for a man Who wouldn't try and stick a gun in your hands So cut out all your talkin' And make love with me through the night Chains around your heart that bind Break away and leave them behind Just leave them behind Just leave them behind |
