The kids screaming, phone ringing. Dog barking at the mailman bringing. That stack of bills overdue. Good morning baby, how are you?. . Got a half hour, quick shower.
Just another 4 wheels on the 2 lane off to work.. Just another lunch box, punch the clock, with my name across my shirt.. Radio spills the news. Superman has got the blues..
Joe and Rosalita, look 'em up in the year book. Even then they had that wild-in-love crazy look. Joe's car on Friday night, after the ball game. Steam so thick on the windows they could write their names.
JUST A DREAM. VERSE 1. LIFE IS A FAIRY TALE. IT'S NOT WHAT WE THINK IT IS. WE ARE ALL WAITING. FOR THE REVEALING. . WE DON'T REALLY REASON. WE ARE ALL DREAMING.
John Gilbert is a boat. Di-dee o, di-dee o. John Gilbert is a boat. Di-dee o. Runnin' in the Cincinnati trade. . You see that boat a-comin'. Comin' 'round the bend.
There's a picture that I carry one we made some time ago. When they ask who's in the picture with me I say just someone I used to know. Just someone I used to spend some time with just a flame that's lost its glow.
Somewhere deep down inside of my heart. Makes me feel things that tear me apart. Got a jealous bone. Got a jealous bone. . Ever since you walked into my life.
You say she wounded your heart. And it's too tender to touch. Oh baby, I know. Words can be sharper than knives. And they can cut just as much. . Oh baby, I know.
Judy's in the sandbox. With gravel in her shoes. She's playing in the spotlight. No sugar with that pose. . And everywhere that judy is. Her lamb is sure to go.
Jimmy Rose owns a tattoo parlor. Three times a day. Cooks a spoon of powder. I wash the dishes piled in his tub. If I wait too long he may never stand up.
Tryin' on a brand new dress. But you haven't worn the old one yet. You've come too far. To turn around now. . You've given up the good fight. You're as strong as anyone.
Joe and Mabel's 12th St. Bar and Grill. . The kids say, "Daddy, where did you meet mother?". Well, I can't tell them and I never will.. I can't tell them that we met each other.
An urban light hit's a bartender's smile. 'Cause it's closin' time again. Last call rang out such a long time ago. In the heart of Julie Anne. . Now she waits inside this midnight glow.
Jimmy won't you please come home. The grass and the buffaloes roam. Come see Jimmy your uncle Jim. And your aunty Jim and your cousin Jim. Come home Jimmy 'cause you need a bath.
Goodbye Joe me gotta go me oh my oh. Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou. My Yvonne the sweetest one me oh my oh. Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Written by: John Stewart. . I cant hold it on the road, youre sitting right beside me. And Im drunk out of my mind, merely from the fact. That you arent here.
Jump Jim Crow, jump Jim Crow. How do you do, you walk so slow. Like a little red rooster with one trick leg. Looks like you the one laying the egg. I don't know when but it'll be real soon.
I've got ripped up jeans and rawhide boots. Stiletto heels and a thousand moods. Led home in my pickup. For somebody's stretch limo. . In the southern sun I've been known to faint.
I just might be in love. Cause I can't get to much of you. Your names first thing that I say. I fill up my day with thoughts of you. My heart and mind I believe your the only one for me we all agree I just might be in love.
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,. I'm begging of you please don't take my man.. Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,. Please don't take him just because you can..
