Blow By Blow Composer(s): Dave Mason; John Cesario; Mark Holden Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac
It's always something Or it ain't nothing at all It's feast or famine Too hot or out in the cold So here we stand Alone together Our backs against the wall If my heart wasn't in it I wouldn't be here at all
Blow by blow Well it's blow by blow And here we go again (Here we go again) Well it's blow by blow
Coming off the ropes And fighting for the hope in us all Are you in my corner Or playing both sides of the wall So make a stand It's now or never Cause life is much too short And if your heart isn't in it You shouldn't be here at all
Blow by blow Well it's blow by blow And here we go again (Here we go again) Well it's blow by blow
Blow by blow Well it's blow by blow I'm back on my feet again (I'm back on my feet again) Well it's blow by blow
I can almost see through the tears And I've got my pride The dreams that I've hidden for years Just won't be denied
So here we stand Alone together Our backs against the wall If my heart wasn't in it I wouldn't be here at all
Blow by blow Well it's blow by blow And here we go again (Here we go again) Well it's blow by blow
Blow by blow Well it's blow by blow I'm back on my feet again (I'm back on my feet again) Well it's blow by blow
Blow Away Composer(s): George Harrison Performer(s): George Harrison
Day turned black, sky ripped apart Rained for a year 'til it dampened my heart Cracks and leaks The floorboards caught rot About to go down I had almost forgot
All I got to do is to love you All I got to be is, be happy All it's got to take is some warmth to make it Blow Away, Blow Away, Blow Away
Sky cleared up, day turned to bright Closing both eyes now the head filled with light Hard to remember what a state I was in Instant amnesia Yang to the Yin
All I got to do is to love you All I got to be is, be happy All it's got to take is some warmth to make it Blow Away, Blow Away, Blow Away
Wind blew in, cloud was dispersed Rainbows appearing, the pressures were burst Breezes a-singing, now feeling good The moment had passed Like I knew that it should
All I got to do is to love you All I got to be is, be happy All it's got to take is some warmth to make it Blow Away, Blow Away, Blow Away
Black days of winter all were through The blossoms came and they brought you Clouds left the sky And I knew the reason why They made way for you and the blossom
The seasons cycle turned again An april shower now and then Trees came alive And the bees left their hive They came out to see you and the blossom
People were laughing, smiling with the sun They knew that summer had begun
The nights grew warm, the days grew long Spring turned to summer and was gone It seemed so fine All the cider and the wine But I knew you'd go with the blossom
When spring returns I'll look again To find another blossom friend Until I do Find something new I'll just think of you and the blossom
Blossom Composer(s): James Taylor Performer(s): James Taylor
Blossom, smile some sunshine down my way Lately, I've been lonesome Blossom, it's been much too long a day Seems my dreams have frozen Melt my cares away
Send the sunshine down my way whenever you call my name I know what you mean to say to me, girl, it's all the same
Blossom, there's any empty road behind Sit you down beside me Blossom, there's a sweet dream on my mind There's a song inside me Take these chains away
Now, send the sunshine down my way whenever you call my name I know what you mean to say to me, girl, it's all the same
Blossom, smile some sunshine down my way Lately, I've been lonesome Blossom, it's been much too long a day Seems my dreams have frozen Melt my cares away

Bloody Well Right Composer(s): Rick Davies; Roger Hodgson Performer(s): Supertramp
So you think your schooling's phoney I guess it's hard not to agree You say it all depends on money And who is in your family tree Right, you're bloody well right you know you got a right to say Right, you're bloody well right you know you got a right to say Ha-ha you're bloody well right you know you're right to say Yeah-yeah you're bloody well right you know you're right to say Me, I don't care anyway! Write your problems down in detail Take them to a higher place You've had your cry - no, I should say wail In the meantime hush your face Right, quite right, you're bloody well right...
Now when I first met you I was rolling along Just a bar room crooner Singing heartbreak songs An' I supposed I could never get next to you But, you seemed quite happy with my company You kept my body heat steady at 103 With your mouth full of gimme An' your body full of much obliged
It's bloody luxury What you mean to me Bloody luxury What you do to me It's bloody luxury What you mean to me 'Cos no matter what you do to me It's bloody luxury Bloody luxury...
You're a five star woman An' you know what to give To fill a part time loser Full of reasons to live But, there's no doubt about it I'm taking a chance on you Becos' you get my heart beating heavy Make my knees go weak You get me so damn nervous I can hardly speak But, nothing's gonna stop me Hanging on my good luck charm
It's bloody luxury What you mean to me Bloody luxury What you do to me It's bloody luxury What you mean to me 'Cos no matter what you do to me It's bloody luxury Bloody luxury...
It's bloody luxury What you mean to me Bloody luxury Honey what you do to me It's bloody luxury What you mean to me 'Cos no matter what you do to me It's bloody luxury
Bloody luxury What you mean to me Bloody luxury Honey what you do to me It's bloody luxury What you mean to me 'Cos no matter what you do to me No matter what you do to me No matter what you do to me It's bloody luxury Bloody luxury
Dasher With The Light Upon His Tail Composer(s): Warner McPherson Performer(s): Kitty Wells
Did you ever wonder how Santa gets his light to see When the moon is in the shadow or hidden behind a tree Now we all heard of Rudolph how his nose lights up the trail But I bet you never heard of dasher with the light upon his tail Oh dash away, dash away, dash away, dash away over hill and dale
Stranger laughs so merrily at dasher with the light upon his tail Ridin' on the rooftop down the chimney Everywhere old Santa goes he gives him light to see Dasher has a job to do before they hit each trail Following old Santa with the light upon his tail (Oh dash away, dash away, dash away, dash away) over hill and dale Stranger laughs so merrily at dasher with the light upon his tail Ridin' on the rooftop...
Bloody Flamenco Composer(s): Nino Ferrer; Michael Waller Performer(s): Nino Ferrer
I've come from Spain it was all in vain nothing remains except the bloody yellow ashes all over the bloody place except the bloody yellow ashes all over the bloody place
Something went wrong someone dropped the bomb the neutron star just fell and changed the face of mother earth into a bloody hell dried up all the seas and blew up Dingley Dell
Green grass can grow no more There's no more trees, no seashore
Bloodshot Eyes Composer(s): R. Hall; Hank Penny Performer(s): Pat Benatar and various other artists
Now just because you're pretty, and you think you're mighty wise You tell me that you love me, then you wore those big brown eyes When I saw you last week, your eyes were turning black You'll find that guy that beat you up, ask him to take you back
Chorus: Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me, I can tell you've been out on the spree Well it's plain that you're lyin' when you say that you will be cryin' Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me I used to spend my money to make you look real sweet I wanted to be proud of you when we walk down the street Now don't ask me to dress you up in a satin fan and silk Your eyes look like two cherries in a glass of buttermilk
Corus
So I guess a little romance has finally set me down You should join the circus, you make a real good clown Your eyes look like a row now, I'm scared to smell your breath You better shut your peabones before you bleed to death

Blood Brothers Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen Performer(s): Bruce Springsteen; Michael Angelo; Garnet Rogers; Jeff Sherman
We played king of the mountain out on the end The world come chargin' up the hill, and we were women and men Now there's so much that time, time and memory fade away We got our own roads to ride and chances we gotta take We stood side by side each one fightin' for the other We said until we died we'd always be blood brothers
Now the hardness of this world slowly grinds your dreams away Makin' a fool's joke out of the promises we make And what once seemed black and white turns to so many shades of gray We lose ourselves in work to do and bills to pay And it's a ride, ride, ride, and there ain't much cover With no one runnin' by your side my blood brother
On through the houses of the dead past those fallen in their tracks Always movin' ahead and never lookin' back Now I don't know how I feel, I don't know how I feel tonight If I've fallen 'neath the wheel, if I've lost or I've gained sight I don't even know why, I don't know why I made this call Or if any of this matters anymore after all
But the stars are burnin' bright like some mystery uncovered I'll keep movin' through the dark with you in my heart My blood brother
Blonde Over Blue Composer(s): Billy Joel Performer(s): Billy Joel
Some days when I'm far away In a lonely room in a cold seclusion Some nights when I'm wound so tight There is no release, there is no solution
In hell there's a big hotel Where the bar just closed and the windows never opened No phone so you can't call home And the TV works, but the clicker is broken
But in the darkness I see your light turned on You know my weakness, you know how I respond to
Blonde over blue Your hands are cold, your eyes are fire Blonde over blue They shine as though you're burning inside One word from you is all I need to be inspired Blonde over blue, I need your inspiration tonight
These days there's a million ways To be pulled and torn, to be misdirected These times there are sins and crimes On the morning shows for the disconnected
I look and I write my book And I walk away with the wrong impressions I don't care 'cause I've done my share' And I need some time for my own obsessions
It doesn't matter, I've let that life go by It's been forgotten 'cause all I wanted was you
Blonde over blue Your hands are cold, your eyes are fire Blonde over blue They shine as though you're burning inside One word from you is all I need to be inspired Blonde over blue, I need your inspiration tonight
These days not a damn soul prays And there is no faith 'cause there's nothing to believe in These days only good luck pays If we don't get paid then we try to get even
I look and I write my book And I have my say and I draw conclusions Some nights when I'm wound so tight There is no release there is no solution
But in the darkness I see your light turned on You know my weakness, you know how I respond to
Blonde over blue Your hands are cold, your eyes are fire Blonde over blue They shine as though you're burning inside One word from you is all I need to be inspired Blonde over blue, I need your inspiration tonight
Blonde over blue Your hands are cold, your eyes are fire Blonde over blue They shine as though you're burning inside One word from you is all I need to be inspired Blonde over blue, I need your inspiration tonight
Blodwyn Composer(s): Pete Ham Performer(s): Badfinger
I put away the knife, the chisel, and the saw I've locked away my life behind this old, oak door To make a simple spoon, a token of my love In hope that maybe soon, it's me you're thinking of
Chorus: So take my spoon, Blodwyn Make it soon, Blodwyn The valley knows the way I feel today So take my spoon, Blodwyn Make it soon, Blodwyn Before some other spoon takes you away
My life may not be long, was working down below For so much can go wrong, but what else do I know? So take these precious years and make them precious too And say you'll take from me what I will give to you

Blindman Composer(s): David Coverdale Performer(s): David Coverdale
I was dreaming of the past Why do good times never last Help me Jesus, show the way I can't hold on another day
I was hungry, felling low I just couldn't make out which way to go Chasing rainbows that have no end The road is long without friend
Be my friend, be my brother Be the piper, play the call Across the seven seas of wonder Be the guardian of my soul
Just a young man looking homeward Watching the sun go down again Across the water, the sun is shining But, will it ever, will it ever be the same
Be my friend, be my brother Be the piper, play the call Across the seven seas of wonder Be the guardian of my soul
I need somebody, I need someone I need somebody to call my own Like a blindman, I can feel the heat of the sun But, like a blindman I don't know, I don't know, I don't know where it's coming from
Be my friend, be my brother Be the piper, play the call Across the seven seas of wonder Be the guardian of my soul
I need somebody, I need someone I need somebody to call my own Like a blindman, I can feel the heat of the sun But, like a blindman I don't know, I don't know I don't know where is coming from
Blinded By The Light Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen Performer(s): Bruce Springsteen
Madman drummers bummers and Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin' kinda older, I tripped the merry-go-round With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing, the calliope crashed to the ground Some all-hot half-shot was headin' for the hot spot, snappin' his fingers, clappin' his hands And some fleshpot mascot was tied into a lover's knot with a whatnot in her hand And now young Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand And some bloodshot forget-me-not whispers "Daddy's within earshot, save the buckshot, turn up the band"
And she was blinded by the light Cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night Blinded by the light She got down but she never got tight, but she'll make it alright
Some brimstone baritone anti-cyclone rolling stone preacher from the East He says, "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in its funny bone that's where they expect it least" And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner all alone watchin' the young girls dance And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone to remind him of the feeling of romance
Yeah, he was blinded by the light Cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night Blinded by the light He got down but he never got tight, but he's gonna make it tonight
Some silicone sister with her manager's mister told me I got what it takes She said, "I'll turn you on, sonny, to something strong if you play that song with the funky break" And Go-Cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to see if it was safe to go outside And little Early-Pearly came by in her curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on beer, playin' backyard bombardier Yes, and Scotland Yard was trying hard, they sent some dude with a calling card he said, "Do what you like, but don't do it here" Well, I jumped up, turned around, spit in the air, fell on the ground and asked him which was the way back home He said, "Take a right at the light, keep goin' straight until night and then, boy, you're on your own" And now in Zanzibar, a shootin' star was ridin' in a side car, hummin' a lunar tune Yes, and the avatar said, "Blow the bar but first remove the cookie jar we're gonna teach those boys to laugh too soon" And some kidnapped handicap was complainin' that he caught the clap from some mousetrap he bought last night Well, I unsnapped his skull cap and between his ears I saw a gap but figured he'd be all right
He was just blinded by the light Cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night Blinded by the light Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun Oh, but Mama, that's where the fun is I was blinded I was blinded I was blinded
Blinded By Rainbows Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards Performer(s): The Rolling Stones
Did you ever feel the pain That he felt upon the cross Did you ever feel the knife Tearing flesh that's oh so soft Did you ever touch the night Did you ever count the cost Do you hide away the fear Put down paradise as lost Yeah you're blinded by rainbows Watching the wind blow Blinded by rainbows Do you dream at night Do you sleep at night I doubt it Did you ever feel the blast As the semtex bomb goes off Do you ever hear the screams As the limbs are all torn off Did you ever kiss the child Who just saw his father shot Do you ever shed a tear As the war drags on and on Do you ever touch the night Or is it just another job Do you feel the final hours Put down paradise as lost Yeah you're blinded by rainbows And faces in windows Blinded by rainbows Do you dream at night Do you sleep at night I doubt it Do you ever fear the night Could it be the war is lost Do you fear the final hour Do you kneel before the cross You're blinded by rainbows And watching the wind blow Blinded by rainbows Do you dream at night Do you scream at night Do you smell of fear Is your conscience clear Are you caked in sweat Are your clothes all wet Do you see the light Is the end in sight See the face of Christ Enter paradise I doubt it
