ROLLING HOME

:wink:

(David)

I left my home one day for the sake of better pay
In a foreign land twelve centuries back in time
Where the sun keeps pouring down on the holes down in the ground
And I dream of the girl I left behind

Well I signed on the dotted line and I thought in a few years time
I'd be home and we could start a brand new life
But everything went wrong and I just don't know how long
They will make me stay to pay for my crime
And I wish I was

Rollin' home, rollin' home
Home to the place I long to be
Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home
There's someone waiting there for me

There's a law that rules this land that I just didn't understand
I didn't know that I was doing wrong
But they don't seem to care and they'll do it when they're over there
But here you face the justice of their God
And I wish I was

Rollin' home, rollin' home
Home to the place I long to be
Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home
There's someone waiting there for me

All the money that I saved to pay for better days
Just can't make up for how I miss you so
There's no consolation prize but when I close my eyes
I'm dreaming of you in our new home
And I wish I was

Rollin' home, rollin' home
Home to the place I long to be
Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home
There's someone waiting there for me

Rollin' home, rollin' home
Home to the place I long to be
Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home
There's someone waiting there for me

JAM SIDE DOWN

:lol: :lol: :-8)

(Britten / Dore)

What's a boy to do when fate is cruel?
Keep on keepin' on, try to bend the rules
I'll do anything to find a way to your heart
Got a rabbit's foot but luck don't come
Got my fingers crossed but they go numb
I can hold my breath and wish for you
I need a miracle to make it through

Life is hard, I need a remedy
For the way I feel
My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

I was sweet on you, that's how I felt
Got a butter heart, you made it melt
Like a big eyed kid in a candy store
I had a little sugar, now I want some more

Life is hard, I need a remedy
For the way I feel
My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

You are my destiny, you
Bring out the best in me, you
You made me feel so lucky
So lucky to have you
And I need you, yeah I need you

Life is hard, I need a remedy
For the way I feel
My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

Life is hard, I need a remedy
For the way I feel
My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

ONCE BITTEN TWICE SHY

:evil: :evil:

(I. Hunter)

Well the times are gettin' hard for you little girl
I'm a hummin' and a strummin' all over God's world
You can't remember when you got your last meal
And you don't know just how a woman feels
You didn't know what rock n' roll was
Until you met my drummer on a grey tour bus
I got there in the nick of time
Before he got his hands across your state line

I said, I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe
I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe
I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe

Now it's the middle of the night on the open road
The heater don't work and it's oh-so cold
You're lookin' tired, you're lookin' kinda beat
The rhythm of the street sure knocks you off your feet
You didn't know how rock n' roll looked
Until you caught your sister with the guys from the group
Half-way home in the parking lot
By the look in her eyes she was givin' what she got

I said, I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe
I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe
I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe

Well, woman you're a mess, gonna die in your sleep
There's blood on my hands and my Fender's beat
Can't give you home for messin' around
My best friend told me you're the best lick in town
You didn't know that rock n' roll burned
So you bought a candle and you lived and you learned
You got the rhythm, you got the speed
Mamma's little baby likes it short and sweet

I said, I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe
I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe
I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe

I said, I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe
I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe
I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy, babe
I, I-i, I, I'm once bitten, twice shy

mystery song

:roll:

Parfitt/Young)

I see that look on your face
I see that look on your face
I see that look on your face, oh-oh-oh

The boys know what you're giving, you give the boys such a lot of fun
And by the way that you make a living you've got the boys all on the run
S.T.'s showing, you really got me going maybe you can give me a price
I wanna try it, yeah I wanna buy it, tell me would you treat me nice
Oh my legs are shaking, oh my heart is breaking
I'm just feeling like a boy
Now I just can't slow down, gotta get in, go down
Have my share of what a joy

Now I've got your name and number, I like to look upon your face
And now you know that I wanna take you, give me the time you can name
the place
Call me honey, you can take my money, baby we can make a deal
I really mean it, gotta get between it, do you know the way I feel?
Oh I'm feeling kinda like I've gotta find a way to make you understand
Oh I know you're lying and your love I'm buying
Oh I'm feeling like a man

The boys know what you're giving, you give the boys such a lot of fun
And by the way that you make a living you've got the boys all on the run
S.T.'s showing, really got them going, you can even say the price
They'll wanna try it, even wanna buy it if you really treat them nice
But I'd rather take you, show that I can make you
Good enough for just one man
Oh I'm feeling kinda like I've gotta find a
Way to make you understand

again and again

:lol:

(Parfitt/Bown/Lynton)

Once upon a time not so very long ago
There wasn't such a thing as a rock'n'roll show
You had to sit at home and listen to the radio
Then came a man with a rockin' guitar
Found himself a beat and he played it near and far
Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll

Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?

He travelled round the world in a rock-n-roll band
He stood there like a giant with a guitar in his hand
Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll
Nobody cared about the clothes he would wear
Nobody cared about the colour of his hair
Everybody came to see and let the good times roll

Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?

Now we've got the rhythm in us now we've got the rock
Time didn't matter never living by the clock
Everybody came to hear him playing his rock-n-roll
Then came a line when the music didn't rhyme
He couldn't find the rhyme 'cos he couldn't find the time
But still the people came to listen to the good times roll

Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?
Again again again again again again again again
Why don't you do it, why don't you do it again?

what you're proposing

:shock:

(Rossi / Frost)

It sounds so nice, what you're proposin'
Just once or twice, and not disclosin'
And not disclosin' how we're really really feelin'

What you're proposin' the other night
As I was leavin', I looks left and right
And not believin'
And not believin' that I'd finally be leavin'

What you're proposin', now get it right
If I'm composin', but then I might
Be runny nosin'
I might be runny runny runny runny nosin'
But you're supposin'

Don't be so sure, and just supposin'
We yell for more, and compromisin'
And compromisin' leads to really really feelin'

And just supposin', don't get me wrong
I'm only dreamin', it can't be long
I must be dreamin'
I must be dreamin', dreamin', only only dreamin'
Am I just supposin'

It sounds so nice, what you're proposin'
Just once or twice, and not disclosin'
And not disclosin' how we're really really feelin'

What you're proposin' the other night
As I was leavin', I looks left and right
And not believin'
And not believin' that I'd finally be leavin'
What you're proposin'
And not believin' that I'd finally be leavin'
What you're proposin'
What you're proposin'

AIN'T COMPLAINING

:-P

(Parfitt/Wiliams)

There's nothing left, there's nothing right
There's nothing left, right, left, right, up, down, up, down, up, down

You wind me up, you bring me down
Your reputation is all over the town
So long as you come home to me
I ain't complaining
You fool around, we scream and fight
The way you're treating me you know it ain't right
But when you're making out with me
I ain't complaining

It ain't no use playing it loose
And thinking it don't matter to me
It ain't fair at all, you only have to call my name
And I'll come running to you

You're out all night, you sleep all day
When I get home you're going out to play
Oh woman give me some time, and everything's fine
I ain't complaining
You just don't care we're in a mess
And the company you keep ain't the best
But when you're lying there with me
I ain't complaining

It ain't no use playing it loose
And thinking it don't matter to me
It ain't fair at all, you only have to call my name
And I'll come running to you
But when the chips are down
A man can only take so much foolin' around
And if you don't come home to me
I'll be complaining

There's nothing left, there's nothing right
Our situation ain't looking too bright
'Cos I've taken all I'm gonna take
Without complaining

It ain't no use playing it loose
And thinking it don't matter to me
It ain't fair at all, you only have to call my name
And I'll come running to you
But when the chips are down
A man can only take so much foolin' around
And if you don't come home to me
I'll be complaining

4500 times

17 MINUTEN PURE ROCK'ROLL.....GREAT:lol:

(Rossi/Parfitt)

There's nobody on the end of my line
I'm in time but somebody's missing
Maybe I can find a hand for my hand
If I find a well for my wishing
Be my friend, be my friend

It gets lonely on a table for two
Laughing on your own can be no fun
Even people that are talking to you
Remind you that you're really with no-one
Be my friend, be my friend

Take me over like a thing from the past
Lots of people wishing they'd been there
No-one knowing just how long it would last
But I'm sitting still here in my chair
Be my friend, be my friend

Forty-five hundred times I told you how much I care
Forty-five hundred times I told you how much I care
Problems halved are the problems that we can share
White lies in our eyes, together not really there

Forty-five hundred times I told you you can lean on me
Forty-five hundred times I told you you can lean on me
Though it's taken a long time for you to see
Where we're at is the right place for us to be

I sure want to stay here, it sure feels fine
I feel I could be here a long long time
Now that I've made it, I don't want to fade it
Now that I've made it with you

We came a long way, a slow way too
Up from the down way and back to you
Now that I've made it I don't want to fade it
Now that I've made it with you

SLOW TRAIN

GEEN VIDEO :lol:
(Rossi/Young)

I can't afford a ticket on an old Dakota airplane
I gotta jump a ride on a cattle-trucking slow train
I guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun

I wrote a rockin' song, gonna sing it at the station
I'll finish all the words when I reach my destination
I guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun

Hey mama, please now don't you fret none
Don't worry, but please don't you forget
Hey mama, please don't get upset none
I gotta leave to find me something better

Hey mama, things gonna work out fine now
Believe me, no need for you to write
Hey mama, things gonna work out fine now
I gotta friend who said that she'd invite me

I came here in the morning and I crept out in the middle of night
I gave nobody warning I was leaving and I felt it was right
Now I'm off again, it sure is feeling all right

Got a feeling that I'm leaving with a ticket and I won't jump a ride
It's no good you believing that my leaving was a wrong, it was right
Now I'm off again, it sure is feeling all right

I can't afford a ticket on an old Dakota airplane
I gotta jump a ride on a cattle-trucking slow train
I guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun

I wrote a rockin' song, gonna sing it at the station
I'll finish all the words when I reach my destination
I guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun
I guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun
I guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun

RUNAWAY

:lol:
(Rossi/Frost)

Riding on a high
Riding so high now I'm leaving
Am I running far from my own fears
I'm never facing up
I never face up to the reasons
And never showing any of my tears
Cos I
Leave out the back way
Not the way that I came in
Beacuse it seems like the logical way, at the time

And then I run, run, run
And seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run I'm a runaway
Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs

Take me far away
Take me away to an island
And leave me hear to cry in my own tears
Try me once again
Try me again when you're passing
Maybe I'll remember you in years

I can't go out the back way
Just the way that I came in
I hope it seems like the logical way, at the time

Beacuse I'll run, run, run
And seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run I'm a runaway
Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs

Looking for so long
But I am listening longer
I haven't seen or heard a thing from you
I can't stay here
I couldn't stay here if you paid me
I can't give you any guarantees
I won't
Go out the back way
Not the way that I came in
Beacuse it seems like the logical way, at the time

And then I run, run, run
And seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run I'm a runaway
Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs

Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs
I always will remember my needs
I said,I always will remember my needs

you never can tell

:-P
(Berry)

It was a teenage wedding and the old folks wished them well
You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle
And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell
C'est la vie, say the old folk, it goes to show you never can tell

They furnished off an apartment with two rooms by themselves
The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and ginger ale
But when Pierre found work the little money coming worked out well
C'est la vie, say the old folk, it goes to show you never can tell

They had a hi-fi phono, boy did they let it blast
Seven hundred little records, all rockin' rhythm and jazz
But when the sun went down, the rapid tempo of the music fell
C'est la vie say the old folk, it goes to show you never can tell

They bought a souped up jittny, was a cherry red fifty three
They drove it down to Orleans to celebrate their anniversary
It was there where Pierre was wedded to the lovely Mademoiselle
C'est la vie say the old folk, it goes to show you never can tell

It was a teenage wedding and the old folks wished them well
You could see that Pierre did truly love the Mademoiselle
And now the young Monsieur and Madame have rung the chapel bell
C'est la vie say the old folk, it goes to show you never can tell

RED SKY

>:-8) SLIDESHOW

(David)

I was out on the highway
I was out on my feet
I was tired and hungry
I was late for the meet.

I had a red sky behind me
I had the bad guys on my tail
I had a hundred different reasons
To keep me falling awake
I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you

I had the desert on both sides now
I had the lights in my eyes
Of the town I remember
Up ahead in the cold black sky

I had a red sky behind me
I had the bad guys on my tail
I had a hundred different reasons
To keep me falling awake
I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you

Well I remember that old saying 'bout how good tomorrow will be
But will I be lucky to see with a red sky's lucky for me

In my dreams there is a picture of me in a big gold frame
And the poeple that I've never seen are pointing at my name

I had a red sky behind me
I had the bad guys on my tail
I had a hundred different reasons
To keep me falling awake
I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you

I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you

LIVE AID......DONT WASTE MY TIME

:-D :-) :-o

(Rossi/Young)

You spend my money, you drink my best red wine
You think it's funny to see me all the time
Sitting with my head hanging down
You treat me just like a clown
You spend my money but honey you sure needn't waste my time


When you get older you'll see what you have done
You hung on my shoulder and loved me just for fun
Someday when I'm older too
I'm gonna come and make a fool out of you
You spend my money, but honey you sure needn't waste my time


You spend my money, you drink my best red wine
You think it's funny to see me all the time
Sitting with my head hanging down
You treat me just like a clown
You spend my money but honey you sure needn't waste my time
