Down at the Palomino
03:02
|
|||
Back in the days of ‘72
They used to cruise up Lankershim Avenue
To the best damn club we ever knew
Down at the Palomino
Tommy at the bar, Tiny at the door
A hundred dollar bill would buy a little more
You could listen to the band
You could drink, you could score
Down at the Palomino
If I had a wish I’d count to ten
Click my heels and go back again
When we were sweethearts of the rodeo
Down at the Palomino
Well the old house band
They played with fire
Tony Booth and his Palomino riders
Saturday nights you could hear Jimmy Snyder
Down at the Palomino
Fogerty, Dylan and a Beatle or three
We heard them all when they jammed for free
50,000 watts on KLAC
Live from The Palomino
If I had a wish I’d count to ten
Click my heels and go back again
When we were sweethearts of the rodeo
Down at the Palomino
If I had a wish I’d count to ten
Click my heels and go back again
When we were sweethearts of the rodeo
Down at the Palomino
Rosie and James, Lauderdale too
Mustangs made our big debut
Dwight, Lucinda, everyone you knew
Was down at the Palomino
If I had a wish I’d take a chance
Head on back to Ronnie Mack’s Barn Dance
When we were sweethearts of the rodeo
Down at the Palomino
(Let’s go)
(Play that guitar)
(Yeah, yeah)

Keep On Tryin'
03:28
|
|||
I've been thinking 'bout
All the times you told me
You're so full of doubt
You just can't let it be
But I know
If you keep on comin' back for more
I'll keep on tryin'
I’ll keep on tryin’
And I've been drinkin' now
Just a little too much
And I don't know how
I can get in touch with you
Now there's only one thing
For me to do,
Is to keep on tryin’
To get home to you
And I feel so satisfied when
I can see you smile
I want to confide in
All that is true, so I’ll
Keep on tryin' I'm
Through with lyin'
Just like the sun above
I'll keep shinin’ through
Oh yes I'll
Keep on tryin’
I’m tired of cryin'
I got to find a way
To get on home to you
I've been thinking 'bout
All the times you held me
I never heard you shout
The flow of energy was so fine
Now I think I'll lay it on the line
And keep on tryin'
To get home to you
And I feel so satisfied when
I can see you smile
I want to confide in
All that is true, so I’ll
Keep on tryin' I'm
Through with lyin'
Just like the sun above
I'll come shinin’ through
Yes I will
Keep on tryin', I'm
Tired of cryin'
I got to find a way
To get on home to you
I gotta find a way to get on home to you

I Am the Highway
05:04
|
|||
Pearls and swine bereft of me
Long and weary my road has been
I was lost in the cities, alone in the hills
No sorrow or pity for leaving, I feel
I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky
Friends and liars don't wait for me
'Cause I'll get on all by myself
I put millions of miles under my heels
And still too close to you, I feel
I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky
I am not your blowing wind
I am the lightning
I am not your autumn moon
I am the night
I am the night
I am not your rolling wheels
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride
I am the sky
I am not your blowing wind
I am the lightning
And I am not your autumn moon
I am the night
I am the night
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Time for Me to Fly
03:28
|
|||
I've been around for you
Been up and down for you
But I just can't get any relief
I've swallowed my pride for you
Lived and lied for you
But you still make me feel like a thief
You got me stealin' your love away
You never give it
Peelin' the years away
And we can't relive it
Oh, I make you laugh
And you make me cry
I believe it's time for me to fly
You said we'd work it out
You said we had no doubt
That deep down we were really in love
Oh, but I'm tired of holdin' on
To a feelin' I know is gone
I do believe I've had enough
I've had enough of the falseness
Of a worn out relation
Enough of the jealousy
And the intoleration
Oh, I make you laugh
And you make me cry
I believe it's time for me to fly
Time for me to fly
Oh, I've got to set myself free
(Time for me to fly)
And fly
And that's just how it's got to be
I know it hurts to say goodbye
But it's time for me to fly
Time for me to fly
Time for me to fly
Oh, I've got to set myself free
(Time for me to fly)
And fly
And that's just how it's got to be
I know it hurts to say goodbye
But it's time for me to fly
Oh yeah
Time for me to fly
Oh yeah
Oh it’s time for me to fly
It's time for me to fly
It's time for me to fly
It's time

On the other side of this love
I will be braver
Won’t go looking for a savior
I’ll look for a friend
On the other side of this love
I’ll take the chances I’m given
Won’t stay locked in a prison
On fear and regret
I will run like a river
I will fly like a dove
On the other side of this love
I will be stronger
I’ll hold on to the hunger
Let go of the ache
On the other side of this love
I won’t be a stranger
Frozen in anger
I will let the ice break
I will run like a river
I will fly like a dove
On the other side of this love
Run like a river
I’m gonna fly like a dove
On the other side of this love
On the other side of this love

Evangeline
02:47
|
|||
She stands on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
Alone in the pale moonlight
Waitin' for a man, a riverboat gambler
Says he’ll return home tonight
They used to waltz on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
Lovin' the whole night through
’Til the riverboat gambler went off to make a killin'
And bring it on back to you
Evangeline, Evangeline
Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen
That pulled her man away
Now Bayou Sam from Southern Louisian'
Got gamblin' in his veins
Evangeline from the maritime
Is slowly goin' insane
‘Cause high on the top of a Hickory Hill
She stands in the lightning and thunder
Down on that river the boat was a’sinkin'
She watched that Queen go under
Evangeline, Evangeline
Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen
That pulled her man away
Evangeline, oh Evangeline
Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen
That pulled her man away

Bad for Each Other
04:48
|
|||
Well you walk right in and take me by the heart
Next thing I know, you’re tearin’ me apart
What did you have in mind
Well, it seems so tight ’till it all unwinds
You know we’re bad for each other
But we have a good time
Bad for each other, no good together
We’re the talk of the town
We’re not having a party here
We’re just throwin’ the furniture ‘round
We can fight, but at the end of the night
We really like the new design
You know we’re bad for each other
But we always have a real good time
Well all my neighbors want to give you what for
Every time you come around
Breaking down my front door
Good love is hard to find
Oh I’m gettin’ the picture but I can’t read the signs
You know we’re bad for each other
But we have a good time
Bad for each other, no good together
We’re the talk of the town
We’re not having a party here
We’re just throwin’ the furniture ‘round
We can fight, but at the end of the night
We really like the new design
You know we’re bad for each other
But we always have a real good time
Well your bag’s in the hall
But I know you’re not packed
It’s one step forward
And two steps back
Enemies by design
If we can’t be lovers, we’ll be partners in crime
You know we’re bad for each other
But we have a good time
Bad for each other, no good together
We’re the talk of the town
We’re not having a party here
We’re just throwin’ the furniture ‘round
We can fight, but at the end of the night
We really like the new design
You know we’re bad for each other
But we always have a real good time
Bad for each other
No good together, baby
Bad for each other
If we can’t be lovers, we’ll be partners in crime
You know we’re bad for each other

As Tears Go By
03:26
|
|||
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me
I sit and watch
As tears go by
My riches can't buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All I hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch
As tears go by
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Doing things I used to do
They think are new
I sit and watch
As tears go by

T-Shirt from California
04:12
|
|||
You said you wanted to go out west
But you said nothing about someone else
You just wanted to reinvent yourself
Far away from these midwest checkerboard fields
You say the ocean shines like a diamond
And there’s sunlight everywhere
But I know what keeps you there
It’s the sea in her eyes, the sun in her hair
I got a T-shirt from California
It says Sunset Boulevard
I got a note that you wrote
On the back of an old postcard
But she’s got your heart, she’s got your heart
You talk and talk about the view from the canyon
Or the drive up to Malibu
You never talk about me and you
Guess you’ve got a new life, got a new attitude
I got a T-shirt from California
It says Sunset Boulevard
I got a note that you wrote
On the back of an old postcard
But she’s got your heart, she’s got your heart
I can walk down Ocean Avenue
And stand out on the pier
Well it seems so real, but it’s just another souvenir
You said you might be needing some of your stuff
So I took the liberty of piling it up
With a couple of extra things I just got packed
That she may as well have, ‘cause I’m sending them back
I got a T-shirt from California
It says Sunset Boulevard
I got a note that you wrote
On the back of an old postcard
I got a T-shirt from California
It says Sunset Boulevard
I got a note that you wrote
On the back of an old postcard
But she’s got your heart, she’s got your heart
She’s got your heart, she’s got your heart
You said you wanted to go out west
But you said nothing about someone else

Apprendre Le Jeu
01:32
|
|||
Les cœurs brisés, les amours fabriqués
Tu apprends seulement le jeu
Mais quand tu l’aimes mais il ne t’aime pas
Tu apprends seulement le jeu
Quand il dit que tu es l’amour de sa vie
Et puis, tu réalise qu’il t’a menti
Chagrin et solitude s’emparent de toi
Maintenant tu apprends le jeu
Quand il dit que tu es l’amour de sa vie
Et puis tu réalise, qu’il t’a menti
Chagrin et solitude s’emparent de toi
Maintenant tu apprends le jeu
Maintenant tu apprends le jeu
Les coeurs brisés, les amours fabriqués
Tu apprends seulement le jeu

2000 Miles
03:44
|

He's gone 2000 miles
It's very far
The snow is falling down
Gets colder day by day
I miss you
The children will sing
He'll be back at Christmastime
In these frozen and silent nights
(Frozen and silent nights)
Sometimes in a dream
You appear
Outside under the purple sky
(Under the purple sky)
Diamonds in the snow
Sparkle
Our hearts were singing
It felt like Christmastime
2000 miles
Is very far through the snow
I'll think of you
Wherever you go
He's gone 2000 miles
It's very far
The snow is falling down
Gets colder day by day
I miss you
I can hear people singing
It must be Christmastime
I hear people singing
It must be Christmastime

Everybody wants the feeling
Everybody needs some healing
Maybe we can make it real
With love, love, love
Maybe on a midnight clear
Something good could start right here
Maybe this will be the year
For peace on Earth
There’s a string of colored lights
On the boulevard tonight
Street corner Santas everywhere
I thought about a long lost friend
And how we never made amends
‘Tis the season now begins and I swear
If I could change it all
I would make that call
‘Cause everybody wants the feeling
Everybody needs some healing
Maybe we can make it real
With love, love, love
Maybe on a midnight clear
Something good could start right here
Maybe this will be the year
For peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
Love, love, love, love
We set the table, we say grace
We just ignore that empty place
We let the frost hang in the air
What if one of us spoke first
To melt the anger and the hurt
To break the silence with a word this year
‘Cause everybody wants the feeling
Everybody needs some healing
Maybe we can make it real
With love, love, love
Maybe on a midnight clear
Something good could start right here
Don’t wait another year
For peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
Love, love
If one voice can stop a war
What are we waiting for
‘Cause everybody wants the feeling
Everybody needs some healing
Maybe we can make it real
With love, love, love
Maybe on a midnight clear
Something good could start right here
Don’t wait another year
For peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
(Peace on Earth)
(Love, love, love)
Love, love, love
(Peace on Earth)
Peace on Earth
(Love, love, love)
Love, love, love
(Peace on Earth)
(Love, love, love)
Peace on Earth
