All The Time In The World


All The Time In The World
Composer(s): Shel Silverstein - Even Stevens
Performer(s): Dr. Hook



Lay down
Let's explore this tenderness between us
There ain't no one around at all to see us
And baby would you mind
If maybe you and I
Took a little time to find each other?

Baby, we got all the time in the world
So why don't we just take it nice and slow?
We got everything we need
To plant a lovin' seed
And all the time we need to watch it grow

Stay down
Stay at least until the fire stops burnin'
At least until the room has stopped its turnin'
And when the embers dyin' low
We're lyin' in the afterglow
It'll be as sweet as anything we've ever known

Baby, we got all the time in the world
So why don't we just take it nice and slow?
We got everything we need
To plant a lovin' seed
And all the time we need to watch it grow

Baby, we got all the time in the world
So why don't we just take it nice and slow?
We got everything we need
To plant a lovin' seed
And all the time we need to watch it grow

Baby, we got all the time in the world
So why don't we just take it nice and slow?...

Wild Women Do


Wild Women Do
Composer(s): Sam Lorber; Greg Prestopino; Matthew Wilder
Performer(s): Natalie Cole



You tell me you want a woman who's
As simple as a flower
Well if you want me to act like that
You'd better pay me by the hour

Don't want to travel in the danger zone
Take another number
Don't want a lover who can hold her own
Baby step aside if you don't want to ride
Because

Chorus
Wild women do
And they don't regret it
Wild women show
What they're goin' through
Wild women do
What you think they'll never
What you only dream about
Wild women do

You think that love is a vision of
A princess in a picture
Well let me tell you something, little boy
You wouldn't know love if it hit ya

Scared of someone who is off the wall
Kickin' and a screamin'
Don't you want a lover who can do it all?
Listen to me Jack
I ain't holdin' back
Cos

Chorus

Come on and wild with me baby
Everybody come on
Everybody get wild

Chorus

All The Time And Everywhere


All The Time And Everywhere
Composer(s): Bob Merrill
Performer(s): Dickie Valentine; Percy Faith; Mindy Carson



If you should feel two arms enfold you
Don’t be surprised if no one’s there
It’s just because my two arms hold you
All the time and everywhere

If you should feel a kiss caress you
Right on some busy thoroughfare
It’s just because my two lips bless you
All the time and everywhere

All through the day, near you I’ll stand
You cross the way, I take your hand
You lie awake and I count sheep
On your pillow when you sleep

It took a lifetime but I found you
And every day I say a prayer
Please darling, keep my love around you
All the time and everywhere

All through the day, near you I’ll stand
You cross the way, I take your hand
You lie awake and I count sheep
On your pillow when you sleep

It took a lifetime but I found you
And every day I say a prayer
Please darling, keep my love around you
All the time and everywhere

All the time and everywhere
Everywhere

Wild Women


Wild Women
Composer(s): Benny Hill
Performer(s): Benny Hill



Now I don't want you folks to misconstrue
What I'm about to say to you
But I'm gonna tell you about the women in my life
Now I know some gals who are real refined
But I always seem to get the other kind
And maybe that's why I've never found a wife

Now I used to know a gal in Crewe
She was five foot two and eyes of blue
And, well she told me that her name was Lotty
But I think she was funny in the head
'cause she used to sleep underneath the bed
Her parents thought she was a little potty

But I kind of liked the way she'd smile
So I went around with her for a while
And I kind of thought of her as my bride to be
I said, "You're the one girl in my life
And I'd like to have you for my wife"
She said, "Now what would your wife do with me?"

Chorus:
Beware of wild women, those wild, wild women
Those wild, wild women around
Beware of wild women, those wild, wild women
And never ever let 'em get you down

One day I met a movie star
She was just getting out of her Rolls Royce car
And she was all covered in diamonds and mink
Now I kind of liked a gal with money
And this one, well, she was a real honey
So I said, "Maybe one day you and I could have a little drink"

She said, "You're just my kind of man"
She stuck a phone number in my hand
She said, "Now phone me up next time that you're in town"
I said, "Is this your penthouse," she said, "No
It's the fish and chip shop down below
But you just phone me up and they'll call me down"

Chorus

Now I was in a Chelsea bar one day
And there was a chap stood about five feet away
And we was both admiring a girl about twenty-one
I said, "You just can't help but stare
At that cute little chick with the long blonde hair"
He said, "That chick just happens to be my son"

I said, "I didn't mean to offend
You must let me make amends
I mean at least let me buy you another rum
I said, "You must think me an awful cad
I didn't know you was his dad"
He said, "I'm not, you twit, I'm his mum"

Chorus

And never ever let 'em get you dow-ow-ow-ow-own

All The Time


All The Time
Composer(s): Barry Manilow - Marty Panzer
First release by: Barry Manilow - 1976



All The Time I thought there's only me
crazy in a way that no one else could be
I would have given everything I own
If someone would have said you're not alone
All The Time
all the wasted time
All the years waiting for a sign
To think I had it all
All The Time
All The Time I thought that I was wrong
wanting to be
but needing to belong
If I had just believed in all I had
If someone would have said you're not so bad
All The Time
all the wasted time
All the years waiting for a sign
To think I had it all
All The Time
All The Time I Thought there's only me
crazy in a way that no one else could be
I can't believe that you were somewhere too
thinking All The Time there's only you
All The Time
all the wasted time
All the years waiting for a sign
To think I had it all
All The Time

Wild Wild Angel


Wild Wild Angel
Composer(s): Jennifer Blake
Performer(s): Smokie



Oh the ocean is deep
And my heart cannot sleep
'Cause the wind blows my heart to you
And it cuts like a knife
Every time you say goodbye
You're a wild wild angel just for me
'Cause my heart cries so loud
But you don't hear the sound
I can love you till I die

Wild wild angel rescue me
Wild wild angel can't you see
Oh wild wild angel it's too late to cry
Wild wild angel come to me
Wild wild angel can't you see
Oh wild wild angel gimme one more try

Oh you're hearing my heart
But it's breaking apart
'Cause your love is so hard to find
And I'm too proud to cry
But too real to live a lie
You're a wild wild angel all the time
'Cause my heart has no pride
And I know it's not right
I will love you till I die
My wild wild angel

All The Things She Said


All The Things She Said
Composer(s): Charlie Burchill - Mel Gaynor - John Giblin - Jim Kerr - Mick MacNeil
Performer(s): Simple Minds



Don't you look back on a big lost world
Crying out tomorrow
Don't you look down like the heroes say
Come tell me all about it
Take me to the streets where the bonfires burn
Take me in your arms and I'll fade away
When I hear you say what you got to say
Anywhere you go, you know I'll still be waiting
All the things she said, she said
Little darling close your eyes, there'll be no compromising
Of all the things she said, she said

Throw me to the street where the heartbeats beating
"beating all around me"
To the peaceful revolution
And the perfect wave, surround me
Tell me 'bout the ocean moving in slow motion
I see it glitter in the sun
Then it's freezing in the moonlight
Never look back, never look back, never look away

If freedom comes and goes, you know I'll still be waiting
All the things she said, she said
You've fought the fight so long, no surrender to temptation
Of all the things she said, she said

Stars will fall out for you
Luck will surrender
I'm calling out to you

Oh to be near you in the first morning light
I'd be with you, I dream about you
If I could leave here, I would leave here tonight
I'd be with you, I'd stay with you tonight
Tonight

Anywhere you go, you know I'll still be waiting
Of all the things she said, she said
When I look into your eyes, I see a new day rising
Oh all the things she said, she said
Through the eyes of love, and to never know what hate is
Of all the things she said, she said
She said, this is our time, she said, this is our place
This is the space my heart wants to be
Little darling close your eyes, there'll be no compromising
All the things she said, she said

Wild West Hero


Wild West Hero
Composer(s): Jeff Lynne
Performer(s): Electric Light Orchestra



Wish I was, yeah, a wild west hero

Sometimes I look up high and then I think there might just be a better life
Away from all we know, that's where I wanna go
out on the wild side
and I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero

Ride the range all the day till the first fading light
be with my western girl round the fire, oh, so bright
I'd be the Indians friend, let them live to be free
ridin' into the sunset, I wish I could be

I'd ride the desert sands and through the prairie lands
try'n to do what's right
The folks would come to me, they'd say, we need you here
I'd stay there for the night
Oh, I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero

Ride the range all the day till the first fading light
be with my western girl round the fire, oh, so bright
I'd be the Indians friend, let them live to be free
ridin' into the sunset, I wish I could be

0h, I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero
Oh, I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero
Oh, I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero
Oh, I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero
Wish I was, o-o-oo-o-o-o-oo, a wild west hero

All The Things


All The Things
Performer(s): Journey



You paint a rainbow of emotion
You are the rhythm...life is the dance... yeah
You are the queen of many faces
How you can move me with just one glance
I don’t stand a chance

All the things I love about you
Keeps amazing me now
All the things I love about you

You’re a garden of many hidden secrets
Leaving clues to the mysteries you will reveal
You are the eyes of intuition
You see through illusion... you know what’s real
Just something you feel

All of the things I love about you
Ten thousand dreams you make come true
Devil and angel, lover melted into one...

All the things I love about you
Keeps amazing me now
All the things I love about you

My while world revolves around you
Changing colors with the moon...
Keep amazing me I never get enough

You twist the truth still your’re sincere
To get your way you’ll shed a tear
Don’t need a reason when you’re beautiful...

All of the things I love about you
Then thousand dreams you make come true
Devil and angel, lover melted into one...
My whole world revolves around you
Changing colors with the moon.

All the things I love about you

Wild Tyme


Wild Tyme
Composer(s): Paul Kantner
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane



It's a wild time!
I see people all around me changing faces
It's a wild time!
I'm doing things that haven't got a name yet
I need love, your love
It don't matter if it rains or shines

It's a wild time!
It's a wild time!
I see love all the time!
I'm here for you any old time!
Ah, stay here, play here
Make a place for your self here

I want to be with you, no matter what I do
What doesn't change is the way I feel for you today
Times just seem so good; I do know that I should
Be here with you this way, and it's new
And it's new, and it's oh, so new!
I see changes, changes, all around me are changes

It's a wild time!
It's a wild time!
(Repeat)

All The Roadrunning


All The Roadrunning
Composer(s): Mark Knopfler
Performer(s): Dire Straits; Emmylou Harris



A million miles our vagabond heels
clocked up beneath the clouds
They’re counting down to show time
When we do it for real with the crowds
Air miles are owing
but they don’t come for free
And they don’t give you any for pain

But if it’s all for nothing
all the road running
it’s been in vain

the rimshots come down like cannon fire
and thunder off the wall
there’s a man in every corner
and each one is giving his all

this is my time
this is my drum
so you’ll never hear me complain

And if it’s all for nothing
all the road running
it’s been in vain

All the road running
all the road running

Well if you’re inclined
to go up on the wall
it can only be fast and high
and those who don’t like the danger
soon find something different to try
When there’s only a ringin’ in your ears
and an echo down memory lane

But if it’s all for nothing
all the road running
it’s been in vain

All the road running, all the road running
All the road running, all the road running

The show’s packing up
I sit and I watch the convoy
leaving town
There’s no pretending I’m not a fool,
for riding around and around
like the pictures you keep of your old, old dad
you showed me one time on the plane

But if it’s all for nothing
all the road running
It’s been in vain

A million miles of vagabond sky
clocked up above the clouds
I’m still your man for roaming
as long as there's roamin' allowed

there’ll be a rider
and there’ll be a wall
as long as the dream remains

And if it’s all for nothing
all the road running
it’s been in vain

All the road running, all the road running
All the road running, all the road running
All the road running, all the road running
All the road running, all the road running

Wild Turkey


Wild Turkey
Composer(s): Hugh Moffett; Pebe Sebert
Performer(s): Beccy Cole; Lacy J. Dalton



Had one lover all my life, he left me high and dry
And after I cried all my tears, I learned how to get by
Well there's been old friends to ease my pain, Jack Daniels to name a few
But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you

I've been out with Johnny Ridge, George Dickle never failed
I've taken Southern Comfort just to chase that Coopers Ale
And on those cold nights old Granddad would help me make it through
But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you

Now I have seen some losers, that would make a statue cry
But boy if you had some feathers I'd swear that you could fly
Yes, I came in here alone and yes, I've had a few
But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you

Now don't get the impression that I care about what you do
But when it gets close to thanksgiving I'd hide if I was you
Yes, I came in here alone and yes, I've had a few
But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you

Composer(s): Kenny Loggins - David Pack
Performer(s): Kenny Loggins



Hush a bye
Don't you cry
Go to sleep my little baby
When you wake
You shall have
All the pretty little ponies

In your bed
Momma said
Baby's riding off to dreamland
One by one
They've begun
Dance and prance for little baby
Blacks and bays, dapples and greys
Running in the night
When you wake
You shall have
All the pretty little ponies

Can you see the little ponies
Dance before your eyes
All the pretty little ponies
Will be there when you arise

All The Nasties


All The Nasties
Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin
Performer(s): Elton John



If it came to pass that they should ask
What could I tell them
Would they criticize behind my back
Maybe I should let them
Oh if only then and only then
They would understand
They'd turn a full-blooded city boy
Into a full-blooded city man

If they could face it
I could take it in their eyes
Oh I know I'd make it
Their tiny minds
And sacred cows just fake it
If only then and only then
They would understand
They'd turn a full-blooded city boy
Into a full-blooded city man

But I know the way they want me
In the way they publicize
If they could turn their focus off
To the image in their eyes
Maybe it would help them, help them understand
Maybe it would help them, help them understand
Maybe it would help them, help them understand
That a full-blooded city boy
Is now a full-blooded city man

Oh my soul
Oh my soul
Oh my soul

Wild Tales


Wild Tales
Composer(s): Graham Nash
Performer(s): Crosby, Stills & Nash



You came over here with wild tales from the East
about the floods that are rushing 'round your door
about your old lady who up and walked away from your feast
So you flew your bike over Highway 1
you were lucky to land on your feet
and you started crying 'cause you bent the key
but it was your lady that landed underneath
And it is alright
take it as it comes
you will find a way
to get there
So tell me your company's being reviewed
by the people that sit on the stand
and you tell me your factory's been renewed
with computers instead of hands
So you filmed Old faithful in super-8
and you monitored all of her calls
'cause you caught the milkman with double-cream
he was delivering down your halls
But it's all right
take it as it comes
you will find a way
to get there

All The Man That I Need


All The Man That I Need
Composer(s): Dean Pitchford - Michael Gore
First release by: Linda Clifford - 1982
Covered by multiple other artists



I used to cry myself to sleep at night
But that was all
Before he came
I thought love had to hurt to turn out right
But now he's here
It's not the same
It's not the same

He fills me up
He gives me love
More love than I've ever seen
He's all I've got
He's all I've got in this world
But he's all the man that I need

And in the morning when I kiss his eyes
He takes me down
And rocks me slow
And in the evening when the moon is high
He holds me close
And won't let go
He won't let go

He fills me up
He gives me love
More love than I've ever seen
He's all I've got
He's all I've got in this world
But he's all the man that I need

Wild Rose


Wild Rose
Composer(s): Cindy Walker
Performer(s): Jim Reeves



A rose should be
Where the sun shines through
Not where the wine is red
And the smoke is blue

A rose should be
Blooming in the light
Not in a rendezvous
Blooming in the night

And you are a rose
May be a wild rose
But I'll be proud to take you home
For all to see

To stand with me
Where the candles glow
With orange blossoms
All around the wild, wild rose

And you are a rose
May be a wild rose
But I'll be proud to take you home
For all to see

To stand with me
Where the candles glow
With orange blossoms
All around the wild, wild rose...

All The Love In The World


All The Love In The World
Composer(s): Barry Gibb
Performer(s): Dionne Warwick



In your eyes I see only one - find me the place for us
That's where I belong
There we rise - your glory and mine
Your pain is over now
I make you shine - still believing
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

My love is stronger I am what you make me
All the love in the world won't take you away from me

In all my wonder I forever lay down here with you
I find when love slips away
reach out for all you can
Before it's too late
there you fly returnin' to me
Out of your darkest nights I stand alone - still believing
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

My love is stronger I forever lay down here with you
My love is true
all your darkest nights - I stand alone - still believing
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

My love is stronger I forever lay down here with you
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

Wild Ride


Wild Ride
Composer(s): Dwight Yoakam
Performer(s): Dwight Yoakam



I walked in
There sat Slim
Cleaning up his memory
With some sapphire gin
Mr. Paine grabbed my arm
Pulled me aside
And said, kid are you ready for the wild ride

I looked up
There she stood
I said, if you didn't look so great
I'd say you look good
Ah, she took her hand
Ran it up my thigh
And said, cowboy you ready for the wild ride

Come on now junior take the wild ride
See can you make it on the wild ride
Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride
'Cause things start breakin' on the wild ride

Layin' on the highway
I saw my mind
In tiny little pieces
Thrown from side to side
My heart was shattered
Along with my pride
Guess you can't keep 'em on the wild ride

Come on now junior take the wild ride
See can you make it on the wild ride
Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride
'Cause things start breakin' on the wild ride

I was crawlin' 'cross the floor
I was tryin' to leave
When I felt something tuggin' what was
Left of my sleeve
I heard a little voice with a
Gold-plated vibe
Say, I bought a ticket for the wild ride

Come on now junior take the wild ride
See can you make it on the wild ride
Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride
We might just break it on the wild ride

Come on now junior take the wild ride
See can you make it on the wild ride
Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride
We might just break it on the wild ride

Come on, Come
Take me on a wild ride
See can you make me on the wild ride
Come on and shake me on the wild ride
You might just break me on the wild ride
