Nobody loves you when you're down and out, Nobody sees you when you're on cloud nine. Ev'rybody's hustlin' for a buck and a dime, I'll scratch your back and you scratch mine.
Well, i've been across to the other side, I've shown you ev'rything, i got nothing to hide. But still you ask me, do i love you? What it is? What it is? All i can show you is it's all show biz, All i can tell you is it's all show biz.
Nobody loves you when you're down and out, Nobody knows you when you're on cloud nine. Ev'rybody's hustlin' for a buck and a dime, I'll scratch your back and you knife mine.
Been across the water now so many times, I've seen the one-eyed witchdoctor leading the blind. But still you ask me, do i love you? What you say? What you say? Ev'ry time i put my finger on it, it slips away, Ev'ry time i put my finger on it, it slips away. What you say? What you say? What you say?
Well, i get up in the morning And i'm looking in the mirror to see, oo-wee!
Then i'm lying in the darkness And i know i can't get to sleep, oo-wee!
Nobody loves you when you're old and grey, Nobody needs you when you're upside down. Ev'rybody's hollerin' 'bout their own birthday, Ev'rybody loves you when you're six foot in the ground
What is the matter with this thing? It is speaking on my feet here. That's why we're having this interruptions Very bad.
Well I try so hard to stay alive But the angel of destruction keeps on hounding me all around But I know in my heart that we never really parted, oh no
They say the Lord helps those who help themselves So I'm asking this question in the hope that you'll be kind 'Cause I know deep inside I was never satisfied Oh no, Lord help me
Lord help me now Please help me Lord, yeah, yeah, yeah Help me to help myself Help me to help myself

People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin When I say that I'm o.k. well they look at me kind of strange Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round I really love to watch them roll No longer riding on the merry-go-round I just had to let it go
Ah, people asking questions lost in confusion Well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind I tell them there's no hurry I'm just sitting here doing time
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round I really love to watch them roll No longer riding on the merry-go-round I just had to let it go I just had to let it go I just had to let it go
Our life together is so precious together We have grown, we have grown Although our love is still special Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere alone
It's been too long since we took the time No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly But when I see you darling It's like we both are falling in love again It'll be just like starting over, starting over
Everyday we used to make it love Why can't we be making love nice and easy It's time to spread our wings and fly Don't let another day go by my love It'll be just like starting over, starting over
Why don't we take off alone Take a trip somewhere far, far away We'll be together all alone again Like we used to in the early days Well, well, well darling
It's been too long since we took the time No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly But when I see you darling It's like we both are falling in love again It'll be just like starting over, starting over
Our life together is so precious together We have grown, we have grown Although our love is still special Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere
Dream, dream away Magic in the air, was magic in the air? I believe, yes I believe More I cannot say, what more can I say?
On a river of sound Thru the mirror go round, round I thought I could feel (feel, feel, feel) Music touching my soul, something warm, sudden cold The spirit dance was unfolding
Well, I'm sitting in the la la Waiting for the ya ya, uh huh I'm sitting in the la la Waiting for the ya ya, uh huh It may sound funny But I don't believe she's comin', no, no
Hey, baby, hurry Don't make worry, no Hey, baby, hurry Don't make worry, uh huh huh You know that I love you Yes, I love you, uh huh
Well, I'm sitting in the la la Waiting for the ya ya, uh huh I'm sitting in the la la Waiting for the ya ya, uh huh huh It may sound funny But I don't believe she's comin', no, no
Boogie down one time
Hey, baby, hurry Don't make worry, no, no Hey, baby, hurry Don't make worry, no, no You know that I love you Always thinking of you, yeah, yeah
(This is a story about your friend and mine Who is it, who is it, who is it?)
There you stand with your L.A. tan And your New York walk and your New York talk You're mother left you when you were small But you're gonna wish you wasn't born at all
Steel and glass Steel and glass Steel and glass Steel and glass
Your phone don't ring no one answers your call How does it feel to be off the wall
Well your mouthpiece squawks as he spreads your lies But you can't pull strings if your hands are tied Well your teeth are clean but your mind is capped You leave your smell like an alley cat
Steel and glass Steel and glass Steel and glass Steel and glass
Sweet as the smell of success Her body's warm and wet She gets me through this god awful lonliness A natural high butterfly Oh I, I need, need, need her
Just like a willow tree A breath of spring you see And oh boy you don't know what she do to me She makes me sweat and forget who I am I need, need, need, need her
Well I was wondering how long this could go on, on and on Well I thought I could never be surprised But could it be that I bit my own tongue Oh yeah, it's so hard to swallow when you're wrong
A bird of paradise The sunrise in her eyes God only knows such a sweet surprise I was blind she blew my mind think that I I love, love, love, love, love her I love her, I love her, I love her, I love her
Sweet sweet, sweet sweet love Sweet sweet, sweet sweet love Sweet sweet, sweet sweet love Sweet sweet, sweet sweet love Sweet sweet, sweet sweet love
I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared I'm scared, so scared I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared As the years roll away And the price that I paid And the straws slips away
You don't have to suffer It is what it is No bell book or candle Can get you out of this, oh no!
I'm scarred, I'm scarred, I'm scarred I'm scarred, uh huh I'm scarred, I'm scarred, I'm scarred Every day of my life I just manage to survive I just wanna stay alive
You don't have to worry In heaven or hell Just dance to the music You do it so well, well, well!
Hatred and jealousy, gonna be the death of me I guess I knew it right from the start Sing out about love and peace Don't wanna see the red raw meat The green eyed goddamn straight from your heart
I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired Of being so alone No place to call my own Like a rollin' stone
