.Here's to all you all you lucky dogs, it's heads or tails.
Here's to all you filthy rich, I wish you well. Here's to all the pretty women made for cash. And here's to dashing daddy's son he's such a flash. Well, I been lookin' and walkin' 'round the sunset square, Singin' an' talkin' with my friends down there, sittin' an' lis'nin' with a young man's ear, to all the rainbow dreams Here's to all the shitty jobs that I despise. Here's to two-bit guarantees and other lies. Here's to roads of burning tar and hot cement. Here's to money in my hand and where it went. Well, I got my fingers a-tapping on the hard, stone steps. I'm waiting for lightning and the rains to fall. Young lovers are loafin' with their sidewalk smiles And all their rainbow dreams. Amy Alice in the Summer With a sack lunch and a punch card. See my sister with a drag job. Man, she feels like she's a hundred years ago. Here's to people living lives that they regret. Work your fingers to the bone and sink in debt. Here's to all those shaky tricks that hustlers try. You know their easy money is oft' times hard. They flash a grin an' they wink their eye, well... I been livin' an' breathin' in the rat trap town. Tryna get over where the wall breaks down. Holdin' my head up with my thin tired arms and all my rainbow dreams |

Meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say everything's okay Bring me southern kisses from your room Meet me in the middle of the night Let me hear you say everything's alright Let me smell the moon in your perfume Oh, Gods and years will rise and fall And there's always something more It's lost in talk, I waste my time And it's all been said before While further down behind the masquerade the tears are there I don't ask for all that much I just want someone to care That's right now Meet me in the middle of the day Let me hear you say everything's okay Come on out beneath the shining sun Meet me in the middle of the night Let me hear you say everything's alright Sneak on out beneath the stars and run Oh yeah, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah It's king and queen and we must go down now beyond the chandelier Where I won't have to speak my mind and you won't have to hear Shreds of news and afterthoughts and complicated scenes We'll huddle down behind the light and fade like magazines Meet me in the middle of the day Let me hear you say everything's okay Bring me southern kisses from your room Hey hey, meet me in the middle of the night Let me hear you say everything's alright Let me smell the moon in your perfume Oh now, meet me in the middle of the day Let me hear you say everything's okay Let me see you smiling back at me Hey, meet me in the middle of the night Let me hear you say everything's alright Hold me tight and love and loving's free Whoa yeah |

I was sittin' by the road, my head in a cloud,
Wishin' that I had some wings; Wishin' for a scooter, a-wishin' for a train Or any kin' o' movin' thing. Well, I looked at the trees, I looked at the sky, I seen it was a lovely day. I looked up the road, I looked at my feet, I picked it up an' walked away. Well, you cannot win if you do not play. No, you cannot win if you do not play. Well, I went to the fair, lookin' for fun. I think the whole world was there. I saw a fat man, I saw a thin man. I saw a little teddy bear. Well, I said to myself, "I know what I want. I gotta get a bear some way." I heard a loud voice. It said a few words. It said, "You gotta take a chance an' pay." Well, you cannot win if you do not play No, you cannot win if you do not play Pretty young Pam, you're bringin' me down baby, All ya do is make-uh me blue. I'm under the trees, I'm waiting alone, Tryna sing a song to you. Well, the night is so clear, the moon is so bright; You're wastin' it all away. You're up on a hill, I'm down here below. I'm tryna tell ya babe, it ain't okay. Well, you cannot win if you do not play. You cannot win if you do not play. |
