Tom Jones - Gold (1965 - 1975) (2005) by Tom Jones (보컬) on maniadb.com

It's not unusual to be loved by anyone
It's not unusual to have fun with anyone
but when I see you hanging about with anyone
It's not unusual to see me cry,
oh I wanna' die
It's not unusual to go out at any time
but when I see you out and about it's such a crime
if you should ever want to be loved by anyone,
It's not unusual it happens every day no matter what you say
you find it happens all the time
love will never do what you want it to
why can't this crazy love be mine
It's not unusual, to be mad with anyone
It's not unusual, to be sad with anyone
but if I ever find that you've changed at anytime
it's not unusual to find out that I'm in love with you
whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

With these hands, I will cling to you,
I'm yours forever and a day.
With these hands, I will bring to you,
A tender love as warm as May.
With this heart I will sing to you,
Long after stars have lost their glow,
And with these hands, I'll provide for you,
Should there be a stormy sea,
I'll turn the tide for you,
And I'll never,
No, I'll never let you go.

What's new pussycat whoa
What's new pussycat whoa oh

Pussycat, pussycat, I've got flowers
And lots of hours to spend time with you
So go and powder your cute little pussycat nose
Pussycat, pussycat, I love you yes I do
You and your pussycat nose

What's new pussycat whoa
What's new pussycat whoa oh oh

Pussycat, pussycat, you're so thrilling
And I'm so willing to care for you
So go and make up your big little pussycat eyes
Pussycat, pussycat, I love you yes I do
You and your pussycat eyes

What's new pussycat whoa
What's new pussycat whoa oh oh

Pussycat, pussycat, you're delicious
And if my wishes can all come true
I'll soon be kissing your sweet little pussycat lips
Pussycat, pussycat, I love you yes I do

You and your pussycat eyes whoa
You and your pussycat nose

He always runs while others walk
He acts while other men just talk.
They call him the winner who takes all
And he strikes like Thunderball

He knows the meaning of success
His needs are more so he gives less.
He looks at this world and once in all
Then he strikes like Thunderball

Any woman he wants, he'll get
He will break any heart without regret

His days of asking are all gone
His fight goes on, and on, and on.
But he thinks that the fight is worth it all
So he strikes like Thunderballlllllll

Now let me ask you something:
Have you ever felt that you weren't responsible for the things that you do?
When the girl that you are with is just too much
She is so out of sight, baby, that all you can say is:
Well, all right!

I'm not responsible, not responsible
For anything I do when I'm with you
I'm not responsible, it's impossible
To be so very near and not feel part of you
You've got such a hold on me
You make it seem so easy, but it's true, oh yeah
I get such a happy feeling
Knowing that you feel the same way too

Whoa..oa, baby, all right

I'm not responsible, not responsible
When you can make a man do what you want him to
I'm not responsible, it's impossible
To be so very near and not know what to do
You got such a hold on me
You make it seem so easy but it's true, oh yeah
I get such a happy feeling
Knowing that you feel the same way too
I get such a happy feeling
Knowing that you feel the same way too
Believe me baby, etc....

The old home town looks the sameAs I step down from the train
And there to meet me is my Mama and Papa
And down the road I look and there runs MaryHair of gold and lips like cherries
It's good to touch the green green grass of homeYes, they'll all come to meet me
Arms a reaching, smiling sweetlyIt's good to touch the green green grass of home
The old house is still standingtho' the paint is cracked and dry
And there's that old oak tree that I used to play on
Down the lane I walk my sweet MaryHair of gold and lips like cherries
It's good to touch the green green grass of homeThen I awake and look around me
At four grey walls that surround meAnd I realize that I was only dreaming
For there's a guard and there's a sad old PadreArm in arm we'll walk at daybreak
Again I'll touch the green green grass of homeYes, they'll all come to see me
In the shade of that old oak tree
As they lay me 'neath the green green grass of home

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City,
And I dreamed about those cotton fields at home.
I dreamed about my mother,
Dear old Papa, Sister and brother,

I dreamed about that girl
Who's been waiting for so long.
I wanna go home, I wanna go home,
Oh, how I wanna go home!

Home, folks think I'm big in Detroit City.
From the letters that I write, they think I'm fine.
But by day, I make the cars,
And by night I make the bars,
If only they could read between the lines!

{Spoken}

You know,
I rode a freight train north to Detroit City.
After all these years,
I find that I've just been wastin' my time.
So I just think I'll take my foolish pride,
Put on a south bound freight and ride,
Goin' back to the love ones,
The ones I left waitin' so far behind.

I wanna go home, I wanna go home,
Oh, how I want to go home.

Last night, quietly, she walked through my mind
As I lay searching for sleep.
Her soft hand reached out, she whispered my name
As she brushed a tear from my cheek.
And then those funny familiar forgotten feelings
Started walkin' all over my mind.
It's sad, so sad to watch love go bad,
But a true love would not have gone wrong.
I'm just thankful for the good times we've had
For without them I could not go on,
With all these funny familiar forgotten feelings
Walkin' all over my mind.
I must go on, be strong,
Tho' a million teardrops may fall,
Before these funny familiar forgotten feelings
Stop walk' all over my mind.

Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul"

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
Cain't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

If you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta men didn't, a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't a-get you
Then the left one will

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I've been in love
so many times
Thought
I knew the score
But now you've treated
me sorta wrong
I can't take
anymore
And it looks like
I'm never gonna
Fall in love again
fall in love
I'm never gonna
fall in love
I meat it
fall in love again~
All those things
I heard about you
I thought they were
only lies
But when I caught you
in his arms
I just broke down
and cried
And it looks like
I'm never gonna
Fall in love again
fall in love
No never gonna
fall in love
I mean it I mean it
fall in love again~

I gave my heart
so easily
I cast aside
my pride
But when ya fell for
someone else baby
I broke up all inside
and it looks like
I'm never gonna
fall in love again
Fall in love no never
gonna fall in love
Please don't make me
fall in love again~

Im coming home to your loving heart
Till the one that I was
True way and broke apart

I want you I need you
A chance is on Im asking now
I must get back to you so now
So I am coming home to you
cause I am nothing without you
May be you found somebody new
cause Im still coming home to you

Please let me stay and forget your pride
Now my world is falling round
I got know when behind

I want you I need you
I know with true I made you cry
Then like a fool I say goodbye
Now I am coming home to you
Yes I am nothing without you
May be you found somebody new
But Im still coming home to you

I wake up crying
After tossin' and turnin'
And a-yearnin' the whole night long
Pretty baby since you went away
I haven't spent a happy day
I wake up crying
After sobbin' and sighin'
And a-wonderin' just what went wrong
Pretty baby I was good to you
Why'd you go and make me blue
I need your arms to hold me tight
I need your sweet lips to kiss me goodnight
I'm so unhappy on my own
Don't don't leave me sad and lonely
I wake up crying
After tossin' and turnin'
And a-yearnin' the whole night long
Pretty baby please come back to me
Save me from this mesery
Oh baby won'tcha save me from this mesery
Please baby won'tcha save me from this mesery

Delilah / Tom Jones


I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind
She was my woman
As she deceived me I watched and, went out of my mind
My my my ~~ Delilah Why why why ~~ Delilah
I could see that girl was no good for me
But I was lost like a slave that no man could free


At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting
I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more
My my my ~~ Delilah Why why why ~~ Delilah
So before they come to break down the door
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take any more

Love is like candy on a shelf
You want to taste and help yourself
The sweetest things are there for you
Help yourself, take a few
That's what I want you to do.

We're always told repeatedly
The very best in life is free
And if you want to prove it's true
Baby I'm telling you
This is what you should do
Just help yourself to my lips
To my arms just say the word, and they are yours
Just help yourself to the love,
In my heart your smile has opened up the door
The greatest wealth that exists in the world,
Could never buy what I can give
Just help yourself to my lips
To my arms, and then lets really start to live

Allllllllll right. Yeah

My heart has love enough for two
More than enough for me and you
I'm rich with love, a millionaire
I've so much, it's unfair
Why don't you take a share
Just help yourself to my lips
To my arms just say the word, and they are yours
Just help yourself to the love,
In my heart your smile has opened up the door
The greatest wealth that exists in the world
Could never buy what I can give
So help yourself to my lips, to my arms
And then lets really start to live
Just help yourself to my lips
To my arms just say the word, and they are yours
Just help yourself to the love

In my heart your smile... {fade}

For you to think of me
It would only take a minute of your time
To spare one thought for me
Would you miss just one minute of your time?

When you are far away
I'd like to be part of your time each day
So think of me

A minute of your time
Is all it takes to bring us close
When we are far apart

And if I'm on your mind
I know that there's a chance
You'll ind that I'm there in your heart
One minute ev'ry day
May help to keep the wolf away
Until that moment you are back to stay
But better still I'd like to think of me
Ev'ry minute of your time.

I know that it's late
And I really must leave you alone
But you're too good to hold
That I feel such a long way from home
Yes I know that our love is too new
But I promise It's going to be true
Please let me stay
Don't you send me away
Oh no no

Aaaah
Tell me baby that you need me say
You'll never leave me
Love me tonight
Hold me now my heart is aching
Until the dawn is breaking
Love me tonight
Something is burning inside
Something that can't be denied
I can't let you out of my sight darling
Love me tonight

Let me love you baby
Let me love you baby
Baby love me tonight

I've waited so long for the girl
Of my dreams to appear
And now I can hardly believe
That you really are here
Here in my arms you belong
How can this feeling be wrong
Darling be kind for I'm out of my mind
Over you

Aaaah
Tell me baby that you need me
Say you'll never leave me
Love me tonight
Baby now the pain is stronger
I can't wait a moment longer
Love me tonight
Something is burning inside
Something that can't be denied
I can't let you out of my sight darling
Love me tonight

Let me love you baby
Let me love you baby
Let me love you tonight

Love me tonight

I awakened this morning, I was filled with despair
All my dreams turned to ashes and gone, oh yeah
As I looked at my life it was barren and bare
Without love I've had nothing at all

Without love I've had nothing
Without love I've had nothing at all
I have conquered the world
All but one thing did I have
Without love I've had nothing at all

Once I had a sweetheart who loved only me
There was nothing, oh that she would not give, oh no
But I was blind to her goodness and I could not see
That a heart without love cannot live

Without love I've had nothing
Without love I've had nothing at all
I have conquered the world
All but one thing did I have
Without love I've had nothing at all

Woman, I can remember a woman
Warm were her kisses and tender was she
Lying there in my arms
Why, why did you deceive me so
What devil inside made you go
When I needed you most of all

Daughter of darkness
Stay out of my life, my life
You took my heart, you broke it apart
Daughter of darkness
Daughter of darkness
Please leave me alone forever
Daughter of darkness gone is the love
That we shared together

Heaven, we had our own kind of heaven
Sharing together, the magic of love
In a world of our own
Then oh so suddenly you were gone
The love I depended upon disappeared when you went away

Daughter of darkness stay out of my life, my life
You took my heart, you broke it apart
Oh daughter of darkness
Daughter of darkness leave me alone forever
Daughter of darkness gone is the love
That we shared together
Daughter of darkness stay out of my life, my life
You took my heart, you broke it apart
Oh daughter of darkness

I, I who have nothing.I, I who have no oneAdore you and want you so,
I'm just no one with nothing to give you But Oh, I love you.
He, he buys you diamondsBright sparkling diamonds.But believe me
when I say that he can give you the world.But he'll never love you the way.
I love youHe can take you any place he wants.to fancy clubs and restaurant.
But I can only watch you with my nose pressed up against the window pane.
I, I who have nothing I, I who have no one must watch you
go dancing by wrapped in the arms ofsomebody else when darling
it is who loves you.

Well, she's all you'd ever want
She's the kind I like to flaunt and take to dinner
But she always knows her place
She's got style, she's got grace--she's a winner
She's a lady
Oh, whoa, whoa, she's a lady
Talkin' about that little lady
And the lady is mine

Well, she's never in the way
Always something nice to say, and what a blessin'
I can leave her on her own
Knowin' she's OK alone and there's no messin'
She's a lady
Oh, whoa, whoa, she's a lady
Talkin' about that little lady
And the lady is mine

Well, she never asks very much
And I don't refuse her
Always treat her with respect
I never would abuse her
What she's got is hard to find
And I don't want to lose her
Help me build a mountain
From a little pile of clay, hey hey hey

Well, she knows what I'm about
She can take what I dish out, and that's not easy
But she knows me through and through
And she knows just what to do and how to please me
She's a lady
Oh, whoa, whoa, she's a lady
Talkin' about that little lady
And the lady is mine
Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's a lady
Oh, whoa, whoa, she's a lady
Talkin' about that little lady
And the lady is mine

You are my reason to live All I own I would give
Just to have you adore me

Till the moon deserts the sky Till the all the seas run dry Till then I'll worship you
Till the tropic sun turns cold Till this young world grows old
My darling, I'll adore you

You are my reason to live All I own I would give
Just to have you adore me

Till the rivers flow upstream Till lovers cease to dream .Till then I'm yours, be mine

In a town near Albequerqe
Lived a most concerned young boy
He said lately I have noticed
Folks don't live with peace and joy
With frowns and worry on their faces
They're lost and don't know where to go
He said I'll get the people straightened
By putting on a puppet show
The young New Mexican puppeteer
He saw the people all lived in fear
He thought that maybe they'd listen to
A puppet telling them what to do
You know he got some string and he got some wood
He did some carving and he was good
And folks came running so they could hear
The young New Mexican puppeteer
First he carved out young Abe Lincoln
Abe will teach 'em civil rights
Then a king named Martin Luther
So they'd recall his peacefull fight
Old Mark Twain, his wit and wisdom
Will surely show them life is fun
But he smiled with satisfaction
When the prince of peace was done
The young New Mexican puppeteer
He saw the people all lived in fear
He thought that maybe they'd listen to
A puppet telling them what to do
You know he got some string and he got some wood
He did some carving and he was good
And folks came running so they could hear
The young New Mexican puppeteer
Now his puppet shows were clever
And he made the people laugh
When he got across the message
To walk along lifes open path
They built him his own puppet theatre
Decked out with spotlights yellow and red
And then they wrote him up in all the papers
And this is what the story said
It said...The young New Mexican puppeteer
He saw the people all lived in fear
He thought that maybe they would listen to
A puppet telling them what to do
You know he got some string and he got some wood
He did some carving and he was good
And folks came running so they could hear
The young New Mexican puppeteer

Somebody please, if somebody will
Let them take a letter to my girl, Lucille
Let them tell her, Lord, how I'm missing her still
I think about her constantly

Somebody please, if somebody can
Let them take a letter from this lonely man
All I ask is, Lord, make her understand
I'll die if she don't wait for me

I heard a rumor from the guys in Cell A
You've served your time and you are leaving today
Well, there is something you can do for me
To help your ol' friend, help me, please
'Cause I've got seven years in this old pen
Till I'm home again

Somebody please, if somebody will
Let them take a letter to my girl, Lucille
Let them tell her, Lord, how I'm missing her still
I think about her constantly

Somebody please, if somebody can
Let them take a letter from this lonely man
All I ask is, Lord, make her understand
I'll die if she don't wait for me

To hear you tell it, you're all innocent men
But I was guilty and I'd do it all again
Just to hold her for a minute or two
I'd steal a king's crown, yes, I would
If I don't reach that girl some way
I know there'll be another man around

Somebody please, if somebody will
Let them take a letter to my girl, Lucille
Let them tell her, Lord, how I'm missing her still
Because I think about her constantly

Ugh, somebody please, if somebody can
Let them take a letter from this lonely man
All I ask is, Lord, why don't you make her understand
Because I'll die if she don't wait for me

Ooh, somebody please, if somebody will
Let them take a letter to my girl, Lucille
Let them tell her, Lord, how I'm missing her still
I think about her constantly
