So long we've been distant now. Since you set out on your own. You told me you had to find something. To believe in. Never thought you'd ever leave. But as you walked out the door.
Shadows on my face. shadows on a wall. Lord I need a taste. or I'd risk it all.. You belong to me. we belonging on. Oh, I go crazy. when I can't find my love..
(Hoooo). . (Aye yeah love letter). . (Hoooo). . I'm gonna write what I want you to do to me in a letter. (Aye yeah). I'm gonna write it for good or for bad or for worse or for better.
Oh, it's a long, long while from May to December. But the days grow short when you reach September. When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame.
I don't want a lot for Christmas. There's just one thing I need. I don't care about the presents. Underneath the Christmas tree. I just want you for my own.
I was a hum-drum person. Leading a life apart. When love flew in through my window wide. And quickened my hum-drum heart. Love flew in through my window.
Once I laughed when I heard you saying. That I'd be playing solitaire. Uneasy in my easy chair. It never entered my mind. . And once you told me I was mistaken.
Don't stamp your foot at me. It's impolite. To stamp your foot at me. Is not quite right. At man's ingratitude. A woman winks. But such an attitude just stinks.
Drink beer, it's good for u. I'm empty handed & I'm feeling blue. And I'm gonna drink 'till the day that I die. . Shot bourbon down my throat. I'm empty hearted and I am all alone.
I don't want, no cornbread, peas, black molasses. I don't want, no cornbread, peas, black molasses. At suppertime, Lord, Lord, Lord, at suppertime. . I got a letter, a letter from my mother this morning.
Hear my story and listen well;. Truth is in all that I tell.. It could never have been me.. I did not shoot no deputy.. . Mr. Grant, the deputy,. Friend to my whole family..

The world is your oyster. And it rests in your hands. But the oyster is dying. When the gun is the soul of a man. And as you drown in a pool of caviar.
In the water the squidling be dancing. From above the water there's no life to see. For so long I only ate plankton. But now that I'm dying the nekton eat me.
Let me light your cigarette. And lay your shoes down by the door. I'll show you all the love you need. Isn't that what you came here for?. Let me just massage your back.
I took a trip on a train. And I thought about you. I passed a shadowy lane. And I thought about you. . Two or three cars parked under the stars. Winding stream.
People. ('Round and 'round and around). People make the world go 'round. ('Round and 'round and around). . Teachers on strike, no more school today. They want more money but the board won't pay.
