I've been looking so long at these pictures of you. That I almost believed that they're real. I've been living so long with my pictures of you. That I almost believed that the pictures are all I can feel.
I used to live in a poor neighborhood. My friends and me we always had a time. Never had no money but we had it so good. Those days are gone and I wanna go back.
You know i'm dirty because it's in me. Life's not easy. And it's the heart that I won't change. I wouldn't be the same. . You see me one day and then the next day.
Well, just keep on runnin' mama, 'till you can't run no more. You no your sister told your mama 'bout the boy next door. Well, I see your sugar daddy comin' around the corner.
Daddy was a Cajun [Incomprehensible], raised on Southern land. That so my kinfolks tell me, was a street-fightin' man. Well, they rushed him down to see the doctor.
There ain't no poor man. Born with a silver spoon. And there ain't no wise man. Who learned it all in school. A politician's promise. Can make you feel like a fool.
Well sometimes I lose my direction. And sometimes I jump off track. But when I hide out baby, I can always get it back. I need to feel the cool breeze,.
Daddy was a Cajun, raised on Southern land. And so my kinfolks tell me, was a street-fightin' man.. Well, they rushed him down to see the doctor. "Hey doctor, won't you check his head?".
When a man has a woman. And he doesn't really love her. Why does he burn inside. When she starts to love another. . It's possession,. It's possession..
People like you and people like me. Need somebody to lean on if we wonna stay free.. We'll come together. and maybe we'll see -. People like you and people like me..
She comes on like a rose but everybody knows. She'll get you in Dutch. You can look but you better not touch. . Poison ivy, poison ivy. Late at night while you're sleepin'.
C'est comme un balancier en amont en aval. C'est comme dériver sous la lumière matinale. C'est comme effeuiller, ignorer tous les signals (les signaux).
Stand up and fight. Or you'll lose your right. Do you wanna stand in a line. Fightin' hard to hold on to your mind. . Seek and you'll find. Proud words on a dusty shelf.
Lady oh lady you're. Driving me crazy. You brought out the devil in me. You turned on my fire. With words of desire. You sure put the lovin'. Sure put the lovin' on me.
Stand up and fight. Or you'll lose your right. Do you wanna stand in a line. Fightin' hard to hold on to your mind. . Seek and you'll find. Proud words on a dusty shelf.
Time has come to say goodbye. To the broken memories. They're locked inside like prisoners. In a place that no-one sees. . Stayed up late with a friend of mine.
You say you're gonna testify. Lie away, lie away. So you're gonna gun me down. Go ahead, fire away. You say you'll bring the curtain down. Turn around, walk away.
I'll go down fightin'. But rather be delightin'. All the people that come to see. The Devil's from Chicago. Now where the hell do they go. When we get in our limousines.
