If I had a great big mansion. I'd rather live in a shotgun shack with you. And if I drove a red Ferrari. I'd rather ride in an Oldsmobile with you. If I won a million dollars.
Wasting time, wasting money. You been acting like a fool. You spend your whole life. Fighting for a guarantee. And all you really need is a friend. Hey, there's a good light.
Some people talk to angels. Some people talk to themselves. I don't know who you're talking to. But everything you say makes me want you. You are a model that I see in magazines.
You can't know a man. Till you eat at his table. You can't understand. The lie without the truth. You can't lock me up. Then tell me about freedom. You can't have me.
She pushed the door open. Turned the light switch on. She sleeps alone in our empty bed. I've been gone too long. Baby, baby, tomorrow. I'm coming home.
Play your rock 'n' roll on the stereo. Push the cruise control. Disappear into the groove. Take the photograph, try to make it last. In the awkward laugh and make it true.
She was a good companion, eyes like the Grand Canyon. She was an American beauty. She was a long goodbye, she was the best alibi. She was an American beauty.
Standing in the shadows. A high for the restless heart. Strangers and the scarecrows. I lost the race before the start. Staring at the ceiling. The bridges that were burned.
Baseball season's underway. Well, you'd better get ready for a brand new day. Hey, Chicago, what do you say?. The Cubs are gonna win today. . They're singing.
Take me out. To the ball game. Take me out. To the crowd. Buy me some peanuts. And Crackerjacks. I don't care if. I never get back. . For it's root, root, root.
Well' I got off work and headed for town to have a few. Determined I would drown the pain of losing you. But this couple on the dance floor were droppin' quarters in a slot.
Fancy meeting you here. I guess I always knew there'd. Come a time we'd meet this way. It's good to see your face again. How long has it been. It seems like only yesterday..
I know there's nothing worse than a bad goodbye. And you think you'll feel better if you have a good cry. But save those tears for tomorrow when there's nothing better to do.
There goes that train that carried my girl from town if I known her number lord I'd flag her down.. I wish to the lord that the train would wreck, kill that engineer and breaks the fire man's neck.

There is a house in New Orleans. They call the Rising Sun,. And it's been the ruin for many a poor boy,. And God, I know I'm one.. . My mother was a tailor,.

I worked the rigs from three to midnight. On the Corpus Christi Bay. I'd get off and drink till daylight. Sleep the morning away. I had a plan to take my wages.
