Because I know you'll understand....

[The Shadow]

for you Kiddo:







When the lights go down
He'll be filling a pan
With a broom in his hand
In some dive across town
He'll be wiping the bar
And mopping the floor
Counting his tips
And locking the doors
Wrestling the devil that tells him to pour
Another round
When the lights go down

She'll be calling her friends
From a Mercedes-Benz
But it's too late now
They were there for the fame, the flash and the thrill
The drop of the name, the parties, the pills
As another star falls from the Hollywood Hills
Without a sound

When the lights go down
And there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see
When you feel that hole inside your soul
And wonder what you're made of
Well, we all find out
When the lights go down

When the lights go down
At the end of the day
With this game that I play
Has gone another round
As I lay there alone in this big empty bed
Nothing but thoughts of you in my head
I think of the things I wish I had said
When you were still around

When the lights go down
And there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see
And I wonder if all my life's about
The sum of all my fears and all my doubts
When the lights go down

When the lights go down
And there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see
When you feel that hole inside your soul
And wonder what you're made of
Well, we all find out
When the lights go down

She's Like The Wind

She's like the wind through my tree
She rides the night next to me
She leads me through moonlight
Only to burn me with the sun
She's taken my heart
But she doesn't know what she's done

Feel her breath on my face
Her body close to me
Can't look in her eyes
She's out of my league
Just a fool to believe
I have anything she needs
She's like the wind

(SOLO)

I look in the mirror and all I see
Is a young old man with only a dream
Am I just fooling myself
That she'll stop the pain
Living without her
I'd go insane

Feel her breath on my face
Her body close to me
Can't look in her eyes
She's out of my league
Just a fool to believe
I have anything she needs
She's like the wind

Feel your breath on my face
Your body close to me
Can't look in your eyes
You're out of my league
Just a fool to believe
(Just a fool to believe)
She's like the wind
(Just a fool to believe)
Just a fool to believe
(She's like the wind)
Just a fool to believe
(Just a fool to believe)
She's like the wind
(Just a fool to believe)
Just a fool to believe
She's like the wind

(Just a fool...)
(She's like the wind)
(She's like the wind)
(Just a fool...)
(She's like the wind)
(Just a fool...)

Hey I feel down
Hey I was wrong-wrong-wrong
Hey I feel down
Hey I was wrong-wrong-wrong
Hey I feel DOWN!

Place all of your eyes on the words
That bring the worlds together
Open are the ears of the blind
Favorites always earn them a place
In the hearts of millions
Speaking for the ones without words.... and saying for ya!

Hey I feel down
Hey I was wrong wrong wrong
Hey I feel down
Hey I was wrong wrong wrong
Hey I feel DOWN!

Living without sounds that create
That somewhat tranquil feeling
To say just what I thought I should say
Silence is a world without songs
Those inspired conversations
Speaking for the ones without words.....and saying for ya!

Hey I feel down
Hey I was wrong wrong wrong
Hey I feel down
Hey I was wrong wrong wrong
Hey I feel DOWN!

 

[FISHTALES]

fucking weak

 

[anabolicmd]

Said she would like to keep the pillow warm
Said she'd like to stay and dream
The sanctuary so becomes my need
Said she would like to peek beyond the door
Maybe those rooms hold much more
The more she longs to feel but is never there
Said she would like to dwell within the web
Of the things he always says
Entangled all my limbs with words from him
Said she has many years to polish these
Place them neatly please he says
You wouldn't want to hurt just anyone
Not just anyone said she

Said she would like to have some time away
From the games he likes to play
She can't believe the shit she does for him
Said she would like to move herself along
Man I'm feeling super strong
Stronger than the child that once believed
And it was there said she

Said she would like to keep the pillow warm
Said she'd like to stay and dream
The sanctuary so becomes my need
Said she has many years to polish these
Place them neatly please he says
You wouldn't want to hurt just anyone
Not just anyone said she

[velvett]

catch me as i fall
say you're here and it's all over now
speaking to the atmosphere
no one's here and i fall into myself
this truth drives me into madness
i know i can stop the pain if i will it all away

don't turn away
don't give in to the pain
don't try to hide
though they're screaming your name
don't close your eyes
God knows what lies behind them
don't turn out the light
never sleep never die

i'm frightened by what i see
but somehow i know that there's much more to come
immobilized by my fear
and soon to be blinded by tears
i can stop the pain if i will it all away

don't turn away
don't give in to the pain
don't try to hide
though they're screaming your name
don't close your eyes
God knows what lies behind them
don't turn out the light
never sleep never die

fallen angels at my feet
whispered voices at my ear
death before my eyes
lying next to me i fear
she beckons me shall i give in
upon my end shall i begin
forsaking all i've fallen for i rise to meet the end

 

[anabolicmd]

You're assuming I have something meaningful to say.

I guess I was wrong?

 

[Silent Method]

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion
Is nothing new
Flashback warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories,
Time after

Sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said
Then you say go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows you're wondering
If I'm OK
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time

You said go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time

Time after time
Time after time
Time after time

[Optimus B]

Big booty hoes hop wit it!
Hoochie mamas hop wit it!
Let me see ya touch the ground
I don't know ya reputation
but all the niggas in the hood say it's all good
but the bitch ain't shit, so ya need to make a switch
Smackin on ya lips with your hands on your hips
Trife and slimy, don't try me
Playin on the phone, you supposed to be grown
Bitch stop lyin, I ain't wit it
Keep runnin ya mouth and I'ma stick my dick in it
Hoochie hoodrat needs ho trainin
Ghetto ass always complainin
Tryin ta clown in front of my friends
By the way bitch, can I get those ends?
Fuck the asterisk you ain't no actress
Lay low the mattress, let a nigga scrag it
The bitch is full of dram
Hoochie hoodrat is a ho like a mom
Chorus 1:
She ain't nothin but a hoochie mama
Hoodrat hoodrat hoochie mama!
Yeah, she ain't nothin but a hoochie mama
Hoodrat hoodrat hoochie mama!
*repeat*
Ho I love ya big brown eyes
and the way you shake your thighs
Acting like your so damn cute
Let a real nigga just knock them boots
I don't need no confrontation
All I want is an ejaculation
Cos I like them ghetto hoochies
One-two-light, pop that coochie
(Hoo wee!) Mommy style
Makin niggas smile, bitch get wild
Cos freaky shit is what I like
and I love to see two bitches dyke
My favourite job is 69
Bitch you know it's coochie time
Fuck what you heard and save ya drama
All I want is my hoochie mama
Chorus 2: (x4)
You ain't nothin but a hoochie mama
Hoodrat hoodrat hoochie mama!
Mama just don't understand

Sex is what I need you for
I gotta good girl but I need a whore
I like my bitch promiscous
Hot in the ass and ready to fuck
Foreplay your way, all way my way
Trick a freak and I hit it on Friday
Girl you know ya look so cute
Ridin round town in ya Daisy Duke
Come on over for a visit
Let a nigga ride in ya Civic
Cos I like them ghetto hoochies
One who got them big ol' booties
Save the drama for your mama
All I want is my hoochie mama
Chorus 2
Like this!
You ain't nothin but a hoochie mama
Hoodrat hoodrat hoochie mama!
She ain't nothin but a hoochie mama
Hoodrat hoodrat hoochie mama!

If That Ain't Country Lyrics
David Allen Coe

Recitation:
THE OLD MAN WAS COVERED WITH TATTOOS AND SCARS

HE GOT SOME IN PRISON AND OTHERS IN BARS

THE REST HE GOT WORKIN' ON OLD JUNK CARS

IN THE DAYTIME

THEY LOOKED LIKE TOMBSTONES IN OUR YARD

AND I NEVER SEEN HIM WHEN HE WASN'T TIRED

AND MEAN

HE SOLD USED PARTS TO MAKE ENDS MEET

COVERED WITH GREASE FROM HIS HEAD TO HIS FEET

CUSSIN' THE SWEAT AND THE TEXAS HEAT

AND MOSQUITERS

AND THE NEIGHBORS SAID WE LIVED LIKE HICKS

BUT THEY BRUNG THEIR CARS FOR PA TO FIX

ANYHOW

HE WAS VETERAN-PROUD, TRIED AND TRUE

HE'D FOUGHT TILL HIS HEART WAS BLACK AND BLUE

DIDN'T KNOW HOW HE'D MADE IT THROUGH

THE HARD TIMES

HE BOUGHT OUR HOUSE ON THE G.I. BILL

BUT IT WASN'T WORTH ALL HE HAD TO KILL

TO GIT IT

HE DRANK PEARL IN A CAN AND JACK DANIELS BLACK

CHEWED TOBACCO FROM A MAIL POUCH SACK

HAD AN OLD DOG THAT WAS TRAINED TO ATTACK

SOMETIMES

HE'D GET DRUNK AND MEAN AS A RATTLESNAKE

AND THERE WASN'T TOO MUCH THAT HE WOULD TAKE

FROM A STRANGER

THERE WERE THIRTEEN KIDS AND A BUNCH OF DOGS

A HOUSE FULL OF CHICKENS AND A YARD FULL OF HOGS

I SPENT THE SUMMERTIME CUTTIN' UP LOGS FOR THE WINTER

TRYIN' LIKE THE DEVIL TO FIND THE LORD

WORKIN' LIKE A NIGGER FOR MY ROOM AND BOARD

COAL-BURIN' STOVE, NO NATURAL GAS

IF THAT AIN'T COUNTRY, I'LL KISS YOUR ASS

IF THAT AIN'T COUNTRY, IT'LL HAIRLIP THE POPE

IF THAT AIN'T COUNTRY, IT'S A DAMN GOOD JOKE

I'VE SEEN THE GRAND OLE OPRY, AND I'VE MET JOHNNY CASH

IF THAT AIN'T COUNTRY, I'LL KISS YOUR ASS

RECITATION:

MAMA SELLS EGGS AT A GROCERY STORE

MY OLDEST SISTER IS A FIRST-RATE WHORE

DAD SAYS SHE CAN'T COME HOME ANYMORE

AND HE MEANS IT

MA JUST SITS AND KEEPS HER SILENCE

SISTER, SHE LEFT 'CAUSE DAD GOT VIOLENT

AND HE KNOWS IT

MAMA SHE'S OLD FAR BEYOND HER TIME

FROM CHOPPING TOBACCO AND I'VE SEEN HER CRYIN'

WHEN BLOOD STARTED FLOWIN' FROM HER CALLOUSED HAND

AND IT HURT ME

SHE'D JUST KEEP WORKIN' TRYIN' TO HELP THE OLD MAN

TO THE END OF ONE ROW AND BACK AGAIN

LIKE ALWAYS

SHE'S BEEN THROUGH HELL SINCE JUNIOR WENT TO JAIL

WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OUT SHE AIN'T NEVER FAILED

TO GET DOWN ON HER KNEES AND PRAY

BECAUSE SHE LOVES HIM

TOLD ALL THE NEIGHBORS HE WAS OFF IN THE WAR

FIGHTIN' FOR FREEDOM, HE'S GOOD TO THE CORE

AND SHE'S PROUD

NOW OUR PLACE WAS A GRAVEYARD FOR AUTOMOBILES

AT THE END OF THE PORCH THERE WAS FOUR STACKS OF WHEELS

AND TIRES FOR SALE FOR A DOLLAR OR TWO

CASH


THERE WAS FIFTY HOLES IN AN OLD TIN ROOF

ME AND MY FAMILY WE WAS LIVIN' PROOF

THE PEOPLE WHO FORGOT ABOUT POOR WHITE TRASH

AND IF THAT AIN'T COUNTRY, I'LL KISS YOUR ASS

IF THAT AIN'T COUNTRY, IT'LL HAIRLIP THE POPE

IF THAT AIN'T COUNTRY, IT'S A DAMN GOOD JOKE

I'VE SEEN THE GRAND OLE OPRY, AND I'VE MET JOHNNY CASH

IF THAT AIN'T COUNTRY, I'LL KISS YOUR ASS

I'M THINKING TONIGHT OF MY BLUE EYES

CONCERNING THE GREAT SPECKLED BIRD

I DIDN'T KNOW GOD MADE HONKY-TONK ANGELS

AND WENT BACK TO THE WILD SIDE OF LIFE

 

[rnch]

i bet corn knows this one:

sometimes, in the morning, when shadows are deep
i lie here beside you, just watching you sleep
and sometimes i wisper what i'm thinking of
my cup runneth over with love

sometimes, in the evening, when you do not see
i study the small things you do constantly
i memorize moments that i'm fondest of
my cup runneth over with love

in only a moment, we will both be old
we won't even notice the world turining cold
and so in this moment with sunlight above
my cup runneth over with love

my cup runneth over with love

with love

 

[The Shadow]

rnch - ames brothers

 

[biteme]

We've only just begun to live
white lace and promises
a kiss for luck and we're on our way
we've only begun
something about the risin' sun
we smile
so much of life ahead
we start out walkin'
then learn to run

Song was playing when my daughter was born.

 

[rnch]

rnch - ames brothers

right you are!!!!! i thought you would know this one since it's from the theatre........i'd give my left nut to have ed ames' crooner's throat.

just reading the lyrics, as poignant as they are, don't do justice to his version.

the last verse always chockes me up a lil' bit.

 

[JollyRogers]

Let us burn one
From end to end
And pass it over
To me my friend
Burn it long, we'll burn it slow
To light me up before I go
If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
Cause I'm gonna burn one down
Yes I'm gonna burn one down
My choice is what I choose to do
And if I'm causing no harm
It shouldn't bother you
Your choice is who you choose to be
And if your causin' no harm
Then you're alright with me
If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
Cause I'm gonna burn one down
Yes I'm gonna burn one down
Herb the gift from the earth
And what's from the earth
Is of the greatest worth
So before you knock it try it first
You'll see it's a blessing
And not a curse
If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
Cause I'm gonna burn one down
Yes I'm gonna burn one down
