Shoes hurting my feet
The cars are passing me by I'm taking off the wrong streets I'll never make it on time Never make it on time I'm trying to get to you Something just won't let me through I don't know what I'm gonna do Help me, please 'Cause I can swim in a stream And I can hear the clock chime 'Cause I come in a bad dream I'll never make it on time Never make it on time I'm trying to get to you Something just won't let me through I don't know what I'm gonna do Help me, please Just to know he's waiting Makes it more frustrating But there's a pain Nothing I can do It's kind of funny to see He's always treated me so kind He's always good to me I'll never make it on time I won't make it on time No way I'll make it on time I'm really sorry but it just don't look as if I'm gonna be there on time I won't make it on time |

Days can be sunny
With never a sigh, Don't need what money Can buy. Birds in the tree sing Their dayful of song. Why shouldn't we sing Along? I'm chipper al the day, Happy with my lot. How did I get that way? Look at what I've got. I got rhythm, I got music, I got my man Who could ask for anything more? I got daisies In green pastures, I got my man Who could ask for anything more? I got daisies In green pastures, I got my man Who could ask for anything more? Old man trouble, I don't mind him You won't find him 'Round my door I got starlight, I got sweet dreams, I got my man Who could ask for anything more Who could ask for anything more?! |

Where do I start now?
There's so many things to dream before the morning light Sending my heart out What will I see before I open up my eyes Before the sunrise? Don't it seem strange how Dreams just float away? They leave us with questions For another day When the morning comes at last There's so many thing to do before I lay down Though it may be overcast I can see a light that shines right through the darkest cloud I'm going out And don't it seems strange how Time just drifts away? I leave all the questions For another day And don't it seem strange how Dreams just float away? They leave us with questions For another day And don't it seems strange how Time just drifts away? I leave all the questions For another day For another day |

Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose So the Bible said and it still is news Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own Yes, the strong gets more While the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't ever make the grade Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own Money, you've got lots of friends Crowding round the door When you're gone, spending ends They don't come no more Rich relations give Crust of bread and such You can help yourself But don't take too much Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own He just worry 'bout nothin' Cause he's got his own |

Everything is moving way too fast There's only one way that I'm gonna last I've got to cool my heels, cool my heels I've gotta cool my heels when the heat is on Cool my heels before I lose control This devil deal is 'bout to take my soul It's like the garden and the apple tree Same old temptation keeps a haunting me Everybody's got something to say But I'm the one that's got to pay some day Unless I cool, cool my heels, cool my heels Cool my heels when the heat is on All these cars racing around the corner Although we know we're fast I'm not gonna worry about it I'm gonna let them pass Cool my heels when the heat is on Slow my wheels when it feels so wrong Full themselves but they won't fool me Who else is gonna make them see? Everything is moving way too fast There's only one way that I'm gonna last I've got to cool my heels, slow my wheels Cool my heels when the heat is on Cool my, cool my heels I've got to cool my heels Cool my, cool my heels Got to, got to cool my heels Cool my heels when the heat is on |

Bienvenue dans ma vie
Tout est brillant ici It's warm inside My door is open wide Don't stand outside You can see from far away It's the kind of place you'd like to stay Kick off your shoes Forget your (?)strike(??) There's a light on in a heart Leading to a place Where you can fall and rest your head Close your eyes Welcome to my life Everything is full of life Il fait gris dehors Ne t'inquiète pas mon amour Plein de couleurs dans mon coeur You can see from far away It's the kind of place you'd like to stay Kick off your shoes Forget your (?)strike(??) There's a light on in a heart Leading to a place Where you can fall and rest your head Close your eyes Welcome to my life (Beeruu barum barera hum naranaa Hum oh ooh) You can see from far away It's the kind of place you'd like to stay Kick off your shoes Forget your (?)strike(??) There's a light on in a heart Leading to a place Where you can fall and rest your head Close your eyes (Barum bareera) You can see from far away It's the kind of place you'd like to stay Kick off your shoes Forget your (?)strike(??) There's a light on in a heart Leading to a place Where we can fall and rest your head Close your eyes Welcome to my life Welcome to my life (Boo barurarara) Bienvenue dans ma vie |

Grey skies seem right,
An encore to last night. Your song played on, on, on While I fall with the bed. She wrapped me tight And said it'll be alright. Just sleep and the night'll pass on by, Close your eyes, yeah 'Cause every touch is satisfied, Every kiss is right on time, Every time I say I miss you tonight, Grey skies seem right, Grey skies seem right. Laying still on your side The ache I feel can trust the smile. The sense you left with me Is fillin' up my mind So I close my eyes, yeah Every touch is satisfied, Every kiss is right on time, Every time I say I miss you tonight, Grey skies seem right. It's bitter-sweet this pain, As though I just left you the other day. I'm going half insane Talkin' to my bedding for hope again. 'Cause every touch is satisfied, Every kiss is right on time, Every time I say I miss you tonight, Grey skies oh yes Every touch is satisfied, Every kiss is right on time, 'Cause every time I say I miss you tonight, Grey skies seem right, Grey skies seem right, Grey skies seem right. Grey skies seem right. |

Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true One day I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where your troubles melt like lemon drops Way above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me Oh, somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds, they fly If birds can fly over, over the rainbow, why, then why can't I? One day I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where your troubles melt like lemon drops Way above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me Oh, somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds, they fly If birds can fly over the rainbow, why, then why can't I? If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow Why, oh, why can't I? |
