I was walkin' down the street, minding my own affair
When two policemen grabbed me unaware They said, is your name Henry, I says why sure? He says you're the boy I been lookin' for I was framed, framed, I was blamed Framed, well I never do nothing But I always get blamed, oh framed They took me to the line where those bright lights shine There was ten poor souls like me in that line I knew I was a victim of someone's evil plan When a stool-pigeon walked in an' says That's your man! I was framed, framed, I was blamed Oh, framed, framed, framed Well, I never do nothing But I always get blamed Well, the prosecuting attorney started a-prosecuting me Man, that cat didn't give me the one, but the third degree He says, where were you in the night of July 1953 Man, I was just home, just a tweedle-ee-dee I was framed, oh framed, I was blamed Oh, framed, framed, framed Well, I never do nothing But I always get framed, oh framed Oh framed... |

Who's feeling sorry now?
Just when I thought I knew how The man with the master plan I let it all slip through my hands Why did you turn on me? I'm the same man that I used to be Did you forget who I am? I'm the man with the master plan But every day's the same Nothing seems to change My life is just minutes away And all I wanted to do was dance How could this happen to me? I had it all worked to a T Went through it with a fine toothed comb Now you want to leave me here alone But every day's the same Nothing seems to change My life is just minutes away And all I wanted to do was dance I didn't ask for much I maybe didn't ask for enough I maybe should've forced your hand But all I wanted to do was dance |

Climbing high to the mountain top
Reaching up to the sky above Asking to myself Is this all there is? Sailing into the ocean blue Trying to find at least one clue On a paper scrawled Is this all there is? [Chorus] And they all came to talk about it The came to cry and laugh and fight about it All searching for the promised land Tired souls with empty hands Asking to themselves Is this all there is? Fifteen years on a sewing machine Where twisted hands don't mean a thing Wondering to herself Is this all there is? Baby crying in an old tin cup Wanting more but there's never enough While her mother sighs Is this all there is? ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By DAVID HIDALGO, LOUIS PEREZ <i>Lyrics © BUG MUSIC</i> |

My Baby's Gone
She's gone away from me My Baby's Gone She's gone away from me Living doesn't matter now She's going to set me free Most people say That now I'm free from your spell Most people say That now I'm free from your spell Living on the outside You know it's hard to tell Five years relations Went down the drain What does it matter She'll always be the same My Baby's Gone She's gone away from me Crying doesn't matter now She's going to set me free She's going away She's going away for good She's going away She's going away for good Crying doesn't matter now It wouldn't do a bit of good She's gone away... |

A wise man was telling stories to me
About the places he had been to And the things that he had seen A quiet voice is singing something to me An age old song about the home of the brave In this land here of the free One time one night in America A lady dressed in white with the man she loved Standing along the side of their pickup truck A shot rang out in the night Just when everything seemed right Another headline written down in America The guy that lived next door in #305 Took the kids to the park and disappeared About half past nine Who will ever know How much she loved them so That dark night alone in America A quiet voice is singing something to me An age old song about the home of the brave In this land here of the free One time one night in America Four small boys playing ball in a parking lot A preacher, a teacher, and the other became a cop A car skidded into the rain Making the last little one a saint One more light goes out in America A young girl tosses a coin in the wishing well She hopes for a heaven while for her There's just this hell She gave away her life To become somebody's wife Another wish unanswered in America People having so much faith Die too soon while all the rest come late We write a song that no one sings On a cold black stone Where a lasting peace will finally bring The sunlight plays upon my windowpane I wake up to a world that's still the same My father said to be strong And that a good man could never do wrong In a dream I had last night in America A wise man was telling storie to me About the places he had been to And the things that he had seen A quiet voice is singing something to me An age old song about the home of the brave In this land here of the free One time one night in America |

?Que hare lejos de ti prenda del alma?
?Sin verte, sin oirte y sin hablarte? A cada instante intentare de ti acordarme ?Como quitar la esencia de las flores? ?Como quitarle al viento la armonia? ?Como negar que te amo, vida mia? ?Como borrar de mi alma esta pasion? Al ver que el cruel destino nos condena Mi bien de que me olvidez tengo miedo Mi corazon me dice ya no puedo No puedo mis angustias soportar ?Como quitar el brillo a las estrellas? ?Como impedir que corra el manso rio? ?Como negar que sufrir el pecho mio? ?Como borrar de mi alma esta pasion? |

Memories of a lonely past
A boat set into the wind Drifting lost in waters of doubt On a journey that has no end Torn and faded photographs A chestful of old goodbyes Tear streaked faces by the light of the moon Here on a river of fools Here on a river of fools A trio of angels holding candles of light Guide the ship to an unknown shore Sad soul riders with arms drawn tight As they stopped for just one more Fingers pointed to a star in the sky A message from someone they can't see Tear streaked faces by the light of the moon Here on a river of fools Here on a river of fools Traveling along a cloudy path With a wing, a heart, and a prayer Pieces fall from the heavens above To a place they know not where A string of beads in trembling hands Heading close to the judgment day Tear streaked faces by the light of the moon Here on a river of fools Here on a river of fools |

The wind blows through the valley
It's warm and hard and wild It gets all up inside the trees And shakes the leaves all night They shake up through the mountains They shake up to the sky They shake up to the moon above And then it starts to shine And Lord it makes me tremble And Lord it makes me tremble They shakin' and shakin' and shakes A fault runs through the valley It's long as it is mean It starts to tear into the earth And gets all in between It shakes up through the mountains It shakes down to the sea It shakes up to the volcano And then it starts to scream And then it starts to shine And Lord it makes me tremble And Lord it makes me tremble It's shakin' and shakin' and shakes There's a woman in this valley She's sweet as she is rough And when she starts to dance that way She shakes the boys all up She shakes it through the mountains She shakes it through the night She shakes it like a hurricane She gives a blind man sight And Lord it makes me tremble And Lord it makes me tremble She's shakin' and shakin' and shakes |

When it's up to you
To figure what's right and wrong It's someone else's parade And yours is an unhappy song When it hurts so bad And you feel you can't go on Each day goes by too fast And the nights are so very long You'll find out true What mother said to you The tears of God will show you the way The way to turn When your only escape Is a cheap nickel wine And the peace you need in your heart Is so very hard to find It's a stubborn life we lead And there's never no rest Trouble's out there looking for you Even when you try your best You'll find out true What mother said to you The tears of God will show you the way The way to turn Hide not your head The way to turn Hear what He once said He'll show you the way For there is a world for you and me Where the blind, too, can see Through the tears of God The Son of the Maker said "This is my cross to bear" Taking off of our shoulders Something we should have shared You'll find out true What mother said to you That tears of God will show you the way The way to turn |

A toast to love with paper cups
And a vow to never part They're saying to each other there's a fire burning Deep within their hearts But at her darkest hour he's gone far away She's all alone And when the lights go out it's the hardest time The hardest time to be alone She sends her Mary off to school And sits to watch TV They're talking about spending their lives together The way it's supposed to be Then the baby cries, wakes her from her dream She's on her own And when the lights go out it's the hardest time The hardest time to be alone A mother's dream is like a story never told Reaching out for something more then a hand to hold Wanting the girl she left behind So far behind Pen and paper in her hand To write the folks back home She's telling them again that her life is better Not like long ago Then her shaking hand tears across the page Crumbles to the floor And when the lights go out it's the hardest time The hardest time to be alone |

We've got no money
But we've got our lives A voice that's louder than any picket sign Don't take away what is ours to keep This very land that lies beneath our feet Don't know about this mess we're in Bombs are bursting in a far off land Fire in the sky, a soldier takes his stand But who is to know about the rules that men make For what honor and for who's sake Don't know about this mess we're in The smoke is clearing and we see a light Coming together for a different fight All of us looking, finding our way again Out of this mess we're in She's walking the streets because she has no home All she has hangs on her flesh and bones Too many nights sleeping without a warm bed She passes by but they just turn their heads Don't know about this mess we're in Old man dying from too much drink Blood and glass laying in the bathroom sink No one stopped to read the words that he wrote Or care to hear to stories that he told Don't know about this mess we're in The smoke is clearing and we see a light Coming together for a different fight All of us looking, finding our way again Out of this mess we're in |

We're all alone The sky is dark, the stars are bright And we're so far from home You and I have been together For so many years If love is right, why do you fight To hold back needless tears Tell me babe, it'll be alright But when I'm deep inside I realize That this our last night Bring your pretty head just closer Get it close to mine Your eyes are saying something But the words are hard to find Love don't know it lasts forever Ours is here to stay After all the love we've given Please don't look at me that way Tell me babe, it'll be alright But when I'm deep inside I realize That this our last night Feelings come and hearts fall broken Slipping through our hands The ways of life and love I'll never never understand If it's true what you've been saying If there's still a chance Why is it that the two of us Can't rescue this romance Faded love don't ever come back So the story goes There is a side of you and I Where love no longer goes Tell me babe, it'll be alright But when I'm deep inside I realize That this our last night |

No se como decirte
No se como explicarte Que aqui no hay remedio De lo que siento yo De lo que siento yo La luna me dice una cosa Las estrellas me dicen otra Y la luz del dia me canta Esta triste cancion Esta triste cancion Los besos que me diste mi amor Son los que me estan matando Ya las lagrimas me estan secando Con mi pistola y mi corazon Y aqui siempre paso la vida con La pistola y el corazon No se como amarte No se como abrasarte Porque no se me deja Dolor que tengo yo El dolor que tengo yo Esta noche tan oscura con sus Sombras tan tranquilos Y el viento me sigue cantando Esta humilde cancion Esta humilde cancion Los besos que me diste mi amor Son los que me estan matando Ya las lagrimas me estan secando Con mi pistola y mi corazon Y aqui siempre paso la vida con La pistola y el corazon |

No te asombres si te digo lo que fuiste
Un ingrata con mi pobre corazon Porque el fuego de tus lindos ojos negros Alumbraron el camino de otro amor Y pensar que te adoraba ciegamente Que a tu lado como nunca me senti Y por esas cosas raras de la vida Sin el beso de tu boca yo me vi ZAmor de mis amores alma mia que me hisite? Que no puedo consolar me sin poder me contemplar Ya pagaste mal mi carino tan sincero solo conseguira Que no tu nombre nunca mas Amor de mis amores si dejaste de querer me no hay cuidado Que la gente de esto no se enterara Que gano con decir que tu amor cambio mi suerte se bularan de mi Que nadie sepa mi sufrir |

Si quisiera despreciar te despreciaba
Si quisiera aborrecer te aborrecia Si te fueras por tu ausencia no lloraba Y negara que un tiempo fuistes mia Es muy cierto que llore cuando era nino Y tambien cuando sufrian mi pobres padres Pero nunca llorare por un carino, eso lo hacen Solamente los cobardes Se que tienes muchas ganas de dejarme Pero tienes mucho miedo que te siga Cunado quieras ve a formar tu mundo aparte Hasta nunca vete y Dios que te bendiga Yo jamas he renegado de mi suerte Y te pierdo porque ya era mi destino Si no tengo ya motivos pa quererte Y hay pa siempre cada quien por su camino Se que tienes muchas ganas que dejarme Pero tienes mucho miedo que te siga Cunado quieras ve a formar tu mundo aparte Hasta nunca vete y Dios que te bendiga |

Good night, sleep tight
The big bright sun has gone away Done gone away Goodbye, don't cry Tomorrow will bring us a brand new day We can run and play [Chorus:] And they'll laugh up and down the hall Don't you go shout when you hear them fall Let them fly across the wall Let them cry - 'til the morning calls Little two step angel dance Big night, bright lights Time now to lay them all to rest Put 'em all to rest Bad guys, mean eyes All gone away to where they belong Let's just sing our song [Chorus] Good days, new ways Let go of all things when you sleep When you're all asleep Good night, sleep right Tomorrow is gonna bring us another day So we can run and play [Chorus] |

Let the calm, calm blue waters through
Wash your soul, passing right through you Like the smallest rose out of the hardest ground Like a tiny hand reaching up for the sun Let us hope that our hearts are one The toughest love is the strongest one Like a crippled man fights his bitter pain On two tired legs that hope to walk once again Just stay gold and be still As we grow, a river flows Through our hearts Finding peace wherever it may go Let pure, pure blue waters through Don't let the wind take them away From you, the littlest star Shines in the darkest night Like a mother's ache brings in a new life Just stay gold and be still Pray that we can stay gold and be still |

Down on the riverbed
Down on the riverbed Down on the riverbed I asked my lover for her hand A red tailed hawk circled overhead A red tailed hawk circled overhead A red tailed hawk circled overhead The church on the hill is what she said A monster cloud like a big black hand A monster cloud like a big black hand A monster cloud like a big black hand As she drew houses in the sand Then I heard a train whistle blow Then I heard a train whistle blow Then I heard a train whistle blow And I knew it was time to go |

Girl you know, you can't go on this way
Night after night, day after every day Whisper to me, what's in your aching heart This love you need is not very far Baby dry the tears from your eyes And take my hand as we walk into the night A soul on fire and a touch that's cold Seems to me that's all you've ever known Desperately looking for something that's real Hard to find is the love that can heal Baby dry the tears from your eyes And take my hand as we walk into the night Tender are the dreams That we try so hard to hide, so deep inside I don't know why you go on this way Night after night, and about every day Tell to me, the secrets only a girl could know How much to feel and just how much to show Baby dry the tears from your eyes And take my hand as we walk into the night |

Down the road to a place we know so well The children are running with ribbons in their baby hands While we all gather 'round the Giving Tree Let's go sing songs, the blue ones Let's go sing about the Lord above And thank the old sun for all we have The sad times, the glad times The babies swinging in our arms Just don't seem like much like rain 'round the Giving Tree Like the shedherds once followed a star bright up in the sky We've come to say, come be with us know Come give us a good one Come give us a happy time While we all here dance 'round the Giving Tree |

A piece of rock to make men weak Trembling eyes at everyone he meets Sister holds her baby in the bed Dreams and wishes dancing in her head A love forever is what he said That's what he said Father leans back in his easy chair A pint of whiskey, just sits and stares He don't know and doesn't really care Mother works at a nine to five Hardly makes enough to keep alive She bows her head with tears in her eyes Thank you, Lord, for another day Help my brother along his way Please bring peace to the neighborhood, to the neighborhood Grant us all peace and serenity They're just songs sung on a dirty street Echoes of hope lie beneath their feet Struggling hard to make ends meet Thank you, Lord, for another day Help my brother along his way Please bring peace to the neighborhood Thank you, Lord, for another day Help my brother along his way Please bring peace to the neighborhood To the neighborhood To the neighborhood To the neighborhood |

I had a hard run
Running from your window I was all night running I wonder if you care? I had a run-in Run around and run down Run around a corner Run smack into a tree I had to move Really had to move That's why, if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore Dressed myself in green I went down to the sea Try to see what's going down Maybe read between the lines Had a feeling I was falling Turned around to see Heard a voice calling You was comin' after me I had to move Really had to move That's why, if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore Ran into a rainstorm Ducked into a bar door It was all night pouring But not a drop on me Test me, test me Why don't you arrest me? Throw me in the jail house Until the sun goes down 'til it go down I had to move Really had to move That's why, if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore |

Or the way he combed his hair Could have been the fancy words Or the sweet wine in the air Wasn't the muddy shoes she'd hear Slow coming up the hall Or the faces in the pictures That were hanging on the wall [Chorus:] Knock down the door to Reva's house There's something going on The dogs were barking late last night There's something going wrong Maybe she hoped he would just go away And wake up alone in bed Maybe there was no reason For the things that he had said [Chorus] Didn't find the matches Couldn't light them in the dark Could only hear the sound Of the breaking of her heart "Don't know where to run to I don't know where to hide Can't hold my head up anymore Don't listen when I cry" [Chorus] |

In the summer of our life In the magic of love Storms above scattered away Lovers dreaming in the night Reaching for paradise But as the dark shadows fade Love slips away On an empty stretch of beach In the pattern of the waves Drawing pictures with my hand In the sand I see your face Skipping pebbles on the sea Wishing for paradise Sand castles crumble below The restless tides ebb and flow Listening to a shell Hoping for your voice Beautiful Maria of my soul Of my soul Though we'll always be apart Locked forever in a dream If I ever love again Even then, nothing will change And the taste of you remains Clinging to paradise But as the distance from you grows All that my heart ever knows Hunger for your kiss Longing for your touch Beautiful Maria of my soul Filling all my nights Haunting all my days Beautiful Maria of my soul Of my soul Of my soul |

I had a hard run
Running from your window I was all night running I wonder if you care? I had a run-in Run around and run down Run around a corner Run smack into a tree I had to move Really had to move That's why, if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore Dressed myself in green I went down to the sea Try to see what's going down Maybe read between the lines Had a feeling I was falling Turned around to see Heard a voice calling You was comin' after me I had to move Really had to move That's why, if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore Ran into a rainstorm Ducked into a bar door It was all night pouring But not a drop on me Test me, test me Why don't you arrest me? Throw me in the jail house Until the sun goes down 'til it go down I had to move Really had to move That's why, if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore |

A hundred days and a thousand nights
In just one minute in the blue moonlight Since you've gone away I hardly sleep Since you left me girl, my heart can't find no peace No peace I was a man who stood strong and tall Who could always run and never fall Now I barely stand on my two feet Maybe this could be my lonely destiny Destiny Can't figure out what's right or wrong Don't know where this broken heart belongs Belongs Can't figure out what's right or wrong Don't know where this broken heart belongs Belongs A hundred days and a thousand nights In just one minute in the blue moonlight Travelled through this life without a home On these streets where I've been left to roam To roam To roam |

Standin' there by the window
Starin' out at the night You've got so many troubles On your nervous mind But don't worry baby It's gonna work out fine You hear the sound of footsteps Stealing 'cross the floor You picked up the receiver You didn't know what for Then you saw the shadow Steppin' through the door Well don't worry baby What the world may bring Well don't worry baby It won't change a thing Life is a fly And then you die Standin' there by the window Starin' out at the night You see your lover leanin' Against the old street light But don't worry baby It's gonna be alright He was tossin' and turnin' And he couldn't sleep He said you shouldn't bother It was just a dream So where was he goin' Headin' down the street Well don't worry baby What the world may bring Well don't worry baby It won't change a thing Life is a fly And then you die |

Down on the riverbed
Down on the riverbed Down on the riverbed I asked my lover for her hand A red tailed hawk circled overhead A red tailed hawk circled overhead A red tailed hawk circled overhead The church on the hill is what she said A monster cloud like a big black hand A monster cloud like a big black hand A monster cloud like a big black hand As she drew houses in the sand Then I heard a train whistle blow Then I heard a train whistle blow Then I heard a train whistle blow And I knew it was time to go |

Estoy sentado aqui, que me pasan la tequila
El amor y triste vida no me importa a mi Ahora pienso enboracharme pa quitarme este coraje La mujer que yo queria me dejo a mi Estoy sentado aqui, y con sentimiento espero Ya parese que me muero por estar sin ti Que tristesa me acompana Le hace falta al corazon la ternura de tu Amor que tu vida me dio Estoy sentado aqui, y con sentimiento espero Ya parese que me muero por estar sin ti Que tristesa me acompana Le hace falta al corazon la ternura de tu Amor que tu vida me dio Estoy sentado aqui |

I love you baby with all my might
God knows I tried to treat you right I beg you baby, let me be your slave But please don't send me to an early grave [Chorus:] Well I can't understand, why did you let me go? Well I can't understand, why did you let me go? I done all I could, I can't do no more There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do for you If you want my life you can have that too Please use my blood to make my grave Let the world know I died your happy slave [Chorus] I thought you loved me, I changed my life I wanted you to be my woman and wife Now bloodshot tears have blinded my eyes I'm too weak to live and too strong to die [Chorus] |

Kiko and the lavender moon
Out playing - makes believe Nobody can see And then he waits And then he fakes And then he bends And then he shakes He plays and plays Still playing till he Goes off to sleep Kiko and the lavender moon Out dancing making faces at A big black cat And then he flies Up to the wall Stands on one foot Doesn't even fall Dance and dance Still dancing till He goes off to sleep He always sleeps Till the sun goes down He never wakes Till no one's around He never stops Can't catch his breath It's always there Scares him to death Kiko and the lavender moon Out dreaming 'bout green shoes Haircuts and cake And then he wishes The world away And then he kneels As if to pray He dreams and dreams Kiko and the lavender moon |

No se como decirte
No se como explicarte Que aqui no hay remedio De lo que siento yo De lo que siento yo La luna me dice una cosa Las estrellas me dicen otra Y la luz del dia me canta Esta triste cancion Esta triste cancion Los besos que me diste mi amor Son los que me estan matando Ya las lagrimas me estan secando Con mi pistola y mi corazon Y aqui siempre paso la vida con La pistola y el corazon No se como amarte No se como abrasarte Porque no se me deja Dolor que tengo yo El dolor que tengo yo Esta noche tan oscura con sus Sombras tan tranquilos Y el viento me sigue cantando Esta humilde cancion Esta humilde cancion Los besos que me diste mi amor Son los que me estan matando Ya las lagrimas me estan secando Con mi pistola y mi corazon Y aqui siempre paso la vida con La pistola y el corazon |

If I say yes, I'm sure you'll say no
If I say stop I know you'll say go What seems to be the problem here Is you and me, 'cause we just can't agree So let's just say goodnight and go home You're always right, and I have never Been wrong. The way we are it's getting Harder to hang on. But who's to blame, when two things are Never the same, it's not people That change, it's maybe living from day to day What can I say, the Lord just made us this way What can I do you know what I've been thru. It's just this world, it makes it hard for A guy and girl, but we could give it a whirl, So let's just say goodnight and go home. |

A wise man was telling stories to me
About the places he had been to And the things that he had seen A quiet voice is singing something to me An age old song about the home of the brave In this land here of the free One time one night in America A lady dressed in white with the man she loved Standing along the side of their pickup truck A shot rang out in the night Just when everything seemed right Another headline written down in America The guy that lived next door in #305 Took the kids to the park and disappeared About half past nine Who will ever know How much she loved them so That dark night alone in America A quiet voice is singing something to me An age old song about the home of the brave In this land here of the free One time one night in America Four small boys playing ball in a parking lot A preacher, a teacher, and the other became a cop A car skidded into the rain Making the last little one a saint One more light goes out in America A young girl tosses a coin in the wishing well She hopes for a heaven while for her There's just this hell She gave away her life To become somebody's wife Another wish unanswered in America People having so much faith Die too soon while all the rest come late We write a song that no one sings On a cold black stone Where a lasting peace will finally bring The sunlight plays upon my windowpane I wake up to a world that's still the same My father said to be strong And that a good man could never do wrong In a dream I had last night in America A wise man was telling storie to me About the places he had been to And the things that he had seen A quiet voice is singing something to me An age old song about the home of the brave In this land here of the free One time one night in America |
