"God Gave My Everything"
You can see it in a clear blue sky
You can see it in a woman's eyes
You can hear it in your baby's cries
You can hear it in your lover's sighs
You can touch it in a grain of sand
Yeah hold it right there
In the palm of your hand
Feel it 'round you everyday
And hear what I've got to say
God gave me everything I want
Come on
I'll give it all to you
God gave me everything I want
Come on
I'll give it all to you
I saw it in the midnight sun
And I feel it in the race I won
And I hear it in the windy storm
And I feel it in the icy dawn
And I smell it the wine I taste
And I see it in my father's face
And I hear it in a symphony
And I feel it in the love
You show for me
Yeah
God gave me everything I want
Oh come on
I'll give it all to you
God gave me everything I want
Come on
I'll give it all to you
God gave me everything I want
I can't stop can't stop
I'm still looking now
God gave me everything I want
Oh come on
I'll give it all to you
Crazy you said
It's all in your head

I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories and play our songs again
When I got to the garden party, they all knew my name
No one recognized me, I didn't look the same
[chorus]
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well.
You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself
People came from miles around, everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus, there was magic in the air
'n' over in the corner, much to my surprise
Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan's shoes wearing his disguise
[chorus]
lott-in-dah-dah-dah, lot-in-dah-dah-dah
Played them all the old songs, thought that's why they came
No one heard the music, we didn't look the same
I said hello to "Mary Lou", she belongs to me
When I sang a song about a honky-tonk, it was time to leave
[chorus]
lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
lot-in-dah-dah-dah
Someone opened up a closet door and out stepped Johnny B. Goode
Playing guitar like a-ringin' a bell and lookin' like he should
If you gotta play at garden parties, I wish you a lotta luck
But if memories were all I sang, I rather drive a truck
[chorus]
lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
lot-in-dah-dah-dah
'n' it's all right now, learned my lesson well
You see, ya can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself
Well, if it rains, I don't care, don't make no difference to me
Just take that street car that's goin' up town
Yeah, I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland and dance a honky tonk,
and I'll be buyin' everybody drinks all round

black water
Well, I built me a raft and she's ready for floatin'
Ol' Mississippi, she's callin' my name
Catfish are jumpin'

Black water keeps rollin' on past just the same
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'

Old black water, keep on rollin'

Gonna make everything all right

By the hand, take me by the hand pretty mama

I phoned up my doctor,
To see what's the matter,
He said come on over,
I said do I have to,
My knees started shakin'
My wrist started achin'
When my doctor said to me . . .
Oh my my, oh my my, Can you boogie, can you slide,
Oh my my, oh my my, you can boogie, if you try,
Oh my my, oh my my, It's guaranteed to keep you alive
The head nurse, She blew in, just like a tornado,
When they started dancin', I jumped off the table,
I felt myself healin', and as I was leavin'
This is what they said to me . . .
Oh my my, oh my my, can you boogie, can you slide
Oh my my, oh my my, You can boogie, you can fly,
Oh my my, If you try, It's guaranteed to keep you alive.
Now if you should slow down,
And you're feelin' low down,
Don't call up your doctor,
Just grab you a partner,
It's what you've been missin',
I've got your prescription,
That boogie woogie remedy.
Oh my my, oh my my, You can boogie, you can slide,
Oh my my, oh my my, We can boogie, 'til we die,
Oh my my, If you try, it's guaranteed to keep you alive.
Oh my my, oh my my, Watch me boogie, watch me fly,
Oh my my, oh my my, Born to boogie, born to slide,
Oh my my, oh my my, Ooh wee boogie, ooh wee I
Oh my my, oh my my, Play that boogie, Play that slide.

And Im lookin in the mirror all the time
Wonderin what she dont see in me
Ive been funny; Ive been cool with the lines
Aint that the way loves supposed to be
Tell me why cant I find a woman like that
Quote
jesse"s girl
Jessie is a friend, yeah, I know he's been a good friend of mine
But lately something's changed that ain't hard to define
Jessie's got himself a girl and I want to make her mine
And she's watching him with those eyes
And she's lovin' him with that body, I just know it
Yeah 'n' he's holding her in his arms late, late at night
likeYou know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find a woman like that
I play along with the charade, there doesn't seem to be a reason to change
You know, I feel so dirty when they start talking cute
I wanna tell her that I love her, but the point is rather moot
'Cos she's watching him with those eyes
And she's lovin' him with that body, I just know it
And he's holding her in his arms late, late at night
like Jessie's girl, I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find a woman
Where can I find a woman like that
And I'm lookin' in the mirror all the time, wondering what she don't see in me
I've been funny, I've been cool with the lines
Ain't that the way love supposed to be
Tell me, where can I find a woman like that
(Solo)
You know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl, I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I want Jessie's girl, where can I find a woman like that, like
Jessie's girl, I wish that I had Jessie's girl, I want, I want Jessie's girl

Sometimes I feel turned around
And upside down

"You already are"

When someone said "Sit down, boy,
You already are!"
Yeah, so raise your hands to rock (rock)
Raise your hands to rock (rock)
Raise your hands to rock (rock)
Raise your hands to rock
Summertime was always right
Just me and you
Sixteen and dealing with those
Summertime blues
was young and restless then
Living on the edge of a dream
When someone said "C'mon, boy, you just gotta believe!"
Yeah, so raise your hands to rock (rock)
Raise your hands to rock (rock)

****new song*****
(There's some oldtime beat-boxing in here)
For three years straight, we toured the nation
When we got through, we needed a vacation
We wanted to party, and get a little rest
So we packed our things and headed out west
We got our things and took the beachball out
And jumped in a limousine, ready to wipe out
Now we're ready to go!
Here we go, Here we go
One, one two, one two
Hit it 'D'!
Here we go...
We got to California, I said, headed for the beach
There were girls galore, always in our reach
There was sand and sun, and lots of fun
But when we there the fun really begun

Well baby, there you stand
With your little head, down in your hand
Oh, my God, you can't believe
It's happening again
your baby's gone, and you're all alone
and it looks like the end.
And you're back out on the street.
And you're tryin' to remember.
How will you start it over?
You don't know if you can.
You don't care much for a stranger's touch,
but you can't hold your man.
You never thought you'd be alone
this far down the line
And I know what's been on your mind
You're afraid it's all been wasted time
The autumn leaves have got you thinking
about the first time that you fell
You didn't love the boy too much, no, no
you just loved the boy too well, farewell
So you live from day to day, and you dream
about tomorrow, oh.
And the hours go by like minutes
and the shadows come to stay
So you take a little something
to make them go away
And I could have done so many things, baby
If I could only stop my mind from wonderin' what
I left behind and from worrying 'bout this wasted time
Ooh, another love has come and gone
Ooh, and the years keep rushing on
I remember what you told me
before you went out on your own:
"Sometimes to keep it together,
you got to leave it alone."
So you can get on with your search, baby,
and I can get on with mine
And maybe someday we will find,
that it wasn't really wasted time
Mm,hm
Oh hoo, ooh, ohh,
Ooh,ooh, mm

Oh well oh well
I guess you've got it all worked out so far.
You adjust your reason until you see the light from where you are.
But you can never win, and you can never lose that's the worst part.
You can only say that what you want is where you are
Beautiful girl, won't you listen to me?
Well, I tried so hard to give you what you need, and it burned like gasoline
Oh well oh well
It never took a lot to make this hard.
You were so off balance and I knew all the words to set you off.
But you can never win, and you can never lose that's the scorned heart.
So you throw your head back and you laugh at where we are
Beautiful girl, won't you listen to me?
Well, I tried so hard to give you what you need, and it burned like gasoline.
Won't you listen to me? I tried so hard to give you what you need, and it burned like gasoline, gasoline, gasoline, gasoline.
Oh no
You're a beautiful girl, won't you listen to me?
Well, I tried so hard to give you what you need, and it burned like gasoline
Won't you listen to me?
Well, I tried so hard to give you what you need, but it burned like gasoline
Oh no
Burned like gasoline

Too much of anything can make you sick
Even the good can be a curse (curse)
Makes it hard to know which road to go down
Knowing too much can get you hurt.
Is it better? Is it worse?
Always sitting in reverse
It's just like we're going backwards.
I know where I want this to go
We're driving fast but lets go slow
But I don't want us to crash no.
Just know you're not in this thing alone
There's always a place in me that you can call home
Whenever you feel like we're growing apart
Let's just go back, back, back, back, back to the start.
Anything that's worth having
Is sure enough worth fighting for
Quiting's out of the question
When it gets tough, gotta fight some more.
We gotta fight, fight, fight, fight, fight for this love
We gotta fight, fight, fight, fight, fight for this love
We gotta fight, fight, fight, fight, fight for this love
If it's' worth having, it's worth fighting for (Oh).
Now everyday ain't gon' be no picnic
Love aint no walk in the park
All you can do is make the best of it now
Can't be afraid of the dark.
Just know you're not in this thing alone
There's always a place in me that you can call home
Whenever you feel like we're growing apart
Let's just go back, back, back, back, back to the start.
Anything that's worth having
Is sure enough worth fighting for
Quiting's out of the question
When it gets tough, gotta fight some more.
We gotta fight, fight, fight, fight, fight for this love
We gotta fight, fight, fight, fight, fight for this love
We gotta fight, fight, fight, fight, fight for this love
If it's worth having, it's worth fighting for (Oh).
I don't know where we're heading
I'm willing and ready to go.
We've been driving so fast
We just need to slow down
And just role.
Anything that's worth having
Is sure enough worth fighting for
Quiting's out of the question
When it gets tough, gotta fight some more.
We gotta fight, fight, fight, fight, fight for this love
We gotta fight, fight, fight, fight, fight for this love
We gotta fight, fight, fight, fight, fight for this love
If it's worth having, it's worth fighting for (Oh).

By Theory Of A Deadman - Hate My Life lyrics
So sick of the hobos always begging for change
I don't like how I gotta work and
They just sit around and get paid
I hate all of the people who can't drive their cars.
Bitch you better get outta the way
Before I start falling apart
I hate how my wife is always up my ass
She always wants to buy brand new things
But I don't have the cash.
I hate my job, all of my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end.
Nothing turns out right There's no end in sight
I hate my life!
How come I never get laid nice guys always lose.
How could she have another headache
There's always some kind of excuse
I still hate my job, my boss is a dick
"I don't get paid nearly enough
To put up with all of your shit"
I hate my job, all of my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end.
Nothing turns out right There's no end in sight
I hate my life!
I hate that I can't tell when a girl's underage,
You know, I tell her she's a nice piece of ass,
Then her daddy punches me in the face
So if you're pissed like me
Bitches, here's what you gotta do
Put your middle fingers up in the air
Go on and say "Fuck you!"
I hate my job, all of my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end.
Nothing turns out right There's no end in sight
I hate my life!
So much at stake, can't catch a break
I hate my life
No, it's nothing new hear "it sucks to be you"
I fuckin hate my life

There's got to be somebody somewhere who's feelin' it too
Hurtin' inside, goin' through the motions, it's so hard to live
So many fellin' so lonely when they got so much to give.

Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours
And think of all the great things we would do
Chorus:
Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
Then the busy years went rushing by us
We lost our starry notions on the way
If by chance i'd see you in the tavern
We'd smile at one another and we'd say
Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days
Oh, yes, those were the days
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
Just tonight i stood before the tavern
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
In the glass i saw a strange reflection
Was that lonely woman really me?
Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days
Oh, yes, those were the days
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
Through the door there came familiar laughter
I saw your face and heard you call my name
Oh, my friend, we're older but no wiser
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same...
Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days
Oh, yes, those were the days
