Goodbye romance can't take a chance. On love's painful games. I've called too many times on a sweetheart tree. . Lady lost now I count the cost. Nothing seems to change.
By: chuck berry as done by nazareth. . Nineteeen years old and as sweet as she can be. Dressed up like a downtown christmas tree. Dancin' and hummin' a rock-roll melody.
Sunshine, every single day. Helps to light the way. And darlin', right before my eyes. It don't come as no surprise. That it's easy, easy loving you. .
Here she come. Right on time. Tenement mixer. Givin' the hard line. . Hammerin' down. Walls of steel. Permanent fixer. It's a bad sign. . She's runnin' right over you.
Walkin' alone at night in the cold rain. Wonderin' if I will see you again in some corner light. Runnin' down the road in the warm sun. Dreaming that I am still the one resting by your side.
I'm gonna keep it in the family. Gotta straighten my face. Wanna keep it in the family. Savin' my disgrace. . Like a tick-a time bomb inside a'me. Been to the mount, seen the other side.
My head's moving like a spinning top. How in the world do I make it stop. 'round and 'round and faster still. I'm gonna live till I had my fill. . Call the crowd and gather 'round.
Goin' out, got some time to use. Baby, baby, baby, I just can't lose. Truckin' round from town to town. Got to get my rocks off the ground. . Going up, I've been down so long.
I prayed to God and Jesus. But I guess they didn't hear. My sacrfice was useless. My pleas fell on deaf ears. . So I cried in desperation. Bowed to evil sorcery.
Old man, don't tell me what you did in your day. I got problems of my own on the way. So look you now, where the locusts abound. Pray they don't feed on your sacred ground.

Swingin' my sweet chariot low. Gotta make it home to georgia. Excise lawman on my trail. I'm a silver dollar forger. I see a road block on my right. Engine take me through the night.
His necktie is bright red. From lookin' in one direction. No flower child in his bed. He's got oil well protection. . Just had to be a blind dog. Chewin' on everything.
I was feelin' good, kinda high and cruisin'. I was tryin' to forget, someone I had been losin'. Then you came along, surprise, surprise, you shot me down.
Here we are. We sail on a ship made of dreams. . And i. I only exist to believe. The stars. The stars that I see watching me. . Hold me close. Your arms and your love comfort me.
Shapes of things before my eyes. Just teach me to despise. Will time make men more wise?. . Here within my lonely frame. My eyes just hurt my brain. Will it seem the same?.
Standing on a corner in downtown l.a.. Waiting for the man to come along. She comes up to me and says " too bad, too sad". You know that he's been dead and gone..

Where is the rhyme, where is the reason. Who stands to judge me in this way. Some call it choice, some call it treason. Why find me guilty on this day.
