Hey sailor, what you think, hey buy a girl a drink. That was the first thing she said to me. I was on dry land but I was back at sea. She was so pretty but she was so mean.

She would never say where she came from. And yesterday don't matter if it's gone. When the sun is bright. Or on the darkest night. No one knows, she comes and goes.

When willie met ronnie he was runnin' up a track. He was bent down, burned out, carryin' a sack. Come on boy, you got to stop and help me some. And keep this money hidden when the police come.
I tried to hang on for as long as I could. But now I can see, that it just ain't no good. Our love it has wasted, right down to the core. Whatever we had, we don't have anymore.
By: frank zappa as performed by nazareth. . Said, don't it ever get lonesome?. Don't it ever get sad when you go out on the road?. No, don't it ever get lonesome?.
My head is dancin' like a ball full of fire. Burnin' up with the flames gettin' higher. Rip it up, rip it up good. Rip it up like you know you really should.
Good days, bad days. Tearin' up the freeways. Runnin' in the big race, gotta get on. She's comin' on strong. There's something goin' on. It's the same old song but I gotta get on.
Revenge is sweet and I can't wait. Walk down the street, girl don't be late. . Now I don't want your sympathy. So don't go sheddin' no tears. For every wrong that you did to me.
Down at the house with the red light. She works from seven till dawn. You'll find her there any time that you like. Some days a week she'll be on. Down at the house with the red light.
Weve got to get it together. You bring the wine, well bring the weather. We havent come to be clever. Lets make it now 'cause this could be never. . We're gonna razamataz ya tonight.
Round about midnight. I feel the chill closin in. Living my stage fright. I need the sun to begin, tomorrow. . Thinking bout my life. And all the changes she made.
You are my window, you cast my shadow. All in the light is you. All I ever saw in the love light was you. All I knew. . You are my marrow, you cast my sorrow.
Hear the whistle blowin' so long. Tellin' me I gotta move along. Coast to coast gonna steal highway. Railroad boy up in the guiding daybreak. . Get no sleep in a boxcar.
Got them old wildwood blues. Got them old wildwood blues. Wildwood town, some bad news. Got them old wildwood blues. . Drinking beer by the sea. Giant baseball park by the sea.
Its a sign of the times, standing in line. Quietly waiting to go out of your mind. There is nothing to say, no reason to stay. To fight for the right that they have taken away.
One of my friends went flying by. He at first didn't see me there. He said that flying got him high. I at first said, "I didn't care". . I can wait 'til my time comes around.
Ice, it forms in sheets from your eyes, your tears are down and so crass. Because all you wanted was a touch from the face. Try to find a feeling nothing and wondering why.
Aboard a train, I met a dame. She was a hipster. Man a real gone dame. She wasn't pretty. For New York City. As we strut down on that Ol' Fairlane. With a heave and a ho.
