Riding on a big white butterfly
I turned my back away towards the sky I closed my eyes to look for something Saw myself as really nothing Then I realised my butterfly Wasn't really up there with me We all make mistakes, forgive me Would you like to ride my butterfly Riding on a long blue paperplane Getting seasick, sorry once again Landing strip is getting nearer Hope the foglifts, make it clearer Then I realised my paperplane Wasn't really up there with me We all make mistakes, forgive me Would you like to ride my paperplane Riding in a three grand Deutche car A to B is often very far Home is near, but such a long way Legs and heads all feel the wrong way Then I realised my Deutche car Is only there to get me somewhere Even so I really do care Would you like to ride my Deutche car Rossi / Young |

Spent a long, long evening in a low down honky-tonk bar Pulled a low down lady with a long black honky-tonk car I asked no questions, I got no lies A one off winner, I didn't want any ties And I knew it wasn't right Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules Took me down on the highway doing too many miles an hour And by the way she motored thought we might have made the Eiffel Tower She stopped the motor by her own front door I knew she'd done it so many times before But I was off of the floor But everybody has to sometimes break the rules I woke up next morning feeling kind of up and down 'Cos I did not know if I was in or out of the town Then I saw the face from the night before My purse was empty lying there on the floor But like I told you before That, everybody has to sometimes break the rules I spend a low down evening sitting high on a honky-tonk stool And I spent my money like a low down honky-tonk fool But everybody has to sometimes break the rules Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules Yes, everybody has to sometimes break the rules |

Once upon a time not so very long ago There wasn't such a thing as a rock'n'roll show You had to sit at home and listen to the radio Then came a man with a rockin' guitar Found himself a beat and he played it near and far Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? He travelled round the world in a rock-n-roll band He stood there like a giant with a guitar in his hand Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll Nobody cared about the clothes he would wear Nobody cared about the colour of his hair Everybody came to see and let the good times roll Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Now we've got the rhythm in us now we've got the rock Time didn't matter never living by the clock Everybody came to hear him playing his rock-n-roll Then came a line when the music didn't rhyme He couldn't find the rhyme 'cos he couldn't find the time But still the people came to listen to the good times roll Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?- |

Once upon a time not so very long ago
There wasn't such a thing as a rock'n'roll show You had to sit at home and listen to the radio Then came a man with a rockin' guitar Found himself a beat and he played it near and far Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? He travelled round the world in a rock-n-roll band He stood there like a giant with a guitar in his hand Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll Nobody cared about the clothes he would wear Nobody cared about the colour of his hair Everybody came to see and let the good times roll Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Now we've got the rhythm in us now we've got the rock Time didn't matter never living by the clock Everybody came to hear him playing his rock-n-roll Then came a line when the music didn't rhyme He couldn't find the rhyme 'cos he couldn't find the time But still the people came to listen to the good times roll Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Again again again again again again again again Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again? Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?- |

Sat by a river, wasting my time
I looked at the water and it gave me a sign I made connection, my reflection Was calling me back to rock and roll It was moving, moving along I looked a little closer and I thought of a song And my reaction was satisfaction Calling me back to rock and roll Calling, calling me back I saw it in the water and I'm hitting the track Nothing to pack, polish my act Lord I'm gonna play some rock and roll I was looking, looking ahead Staying up instead of falling back into bed Fuel injected, I've been elected He's calling me back to rock and roll It must be something, something He said That's changing my mind and adjusting my head A new direction, a resurrection Calling me back to rock and roll Calling, calling me back I saw it in the water and I'm hitting the track Nothing to pack, polish my act Lord I'm gonna play some rock and roll |

Captured my heart
Captured my memory Captured a time for me I could see A time for me Is gonna be Deep in my heart Deep in my memory Deep in a part of me Heart of me Meant to be history Could it be that I'm still wondering I never knew what had happened to me I didn't think it was true That I could be just like anyone else I'll take my chance with you Picture a dream Picture a fantasy Picture a mood of me Mystery you and me a mystery Lost in a dream Lost in a fantasy Lost in what seemed to be Dreams to be Seemed to be Had to be Couldn't find no other reason I never knew what had happened to me I didn't think it was true That I could be just like anyone else I'll take my chance with you Lets have a drink It's Marguerita time It's Marguerita time After nine Summer time Any time You'll still always find me wondering I never knew what had happened to me I didn't think it was true That I could be just like anyone else I'll take my chance with you |

Building dreams has always been my way
Making time and living for the day Burning bridges never made me cry I could walk away with no goodbye Easy take or easy leave them all 'Til you scratch the writing on the wall It's on and off and on again Going on and then Taking all I got again Bleeding me, leaving me dry You're hanging on for what you can Dragging out the pain Taking all I give again Faking it, making me cry One day some day I may slide away Turn around and call it all a day Even though I've fooled myself for years I can't escape this ringing in my ears It's on and off and on again Going on and then Taking all I got again Bleeding me, leaving me dry You're hanging on for what you can Dragging out the pain Taking all I give again Faking it, making me cry |

I can feel a new expression on my face
I can feel a glowing sensation taking place I can hear the guitars playin' lovely tunes Every time that you walk in the room I close my eyes for a second and pretend it's me you want Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant I feel a summer's night with a magic moon Every time that you walk in the room Baby it's a dream come true Standin' right along side of you Wish I could show you how much I care But I only have the nerve to stare I can feel a something pounding in my brain Just any time that someone speaks your name Trumpets sound I hear thunder boom Every time that you walk in the room |
