The return of the Lyric Association Thread

[Brian129]

Put my picture in a frame, in the Fool's Hall of Fame
There'll be no one you can blame but me
She was mean and so unkind
A two-faced woman with a one-track mind
I was so blind I could not see

[rdiberna]

Going to the city, got you on my mind,
Country sure is pretty, I'll leave it all behind,
This is my decision, I'm coming home to stay this time
'Cause I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city,
Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city

[KEZHEAD]

It's survival in the city
When you live from day to day
City streets don't have much pity
When you're down, that's where you'll stay

[rdiberna]

Friends are so alarming
My lover's never charming
Life's just a cocktail party on the street
Big Apple
People dressed in plastic bags
Directing traffic
Some kind of fashion
Shattered

[denaz]

There is a yellow one that won't accept the black one
That won't accept the red one that won't accept the white one
And different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo
I am everyday people

[KEZHEAD]

A bottle of white, a bottle of red
Perhaps a bottle of rose instead
We'll get a table near the street
In our old familiar place
You and I, face to face

[Brian129]

One generation got old
One generation got soul
This generation got no destination to hold
Pick up the cry

[rdiberna]

People try to put us d-down (talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we get around (talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold (talkin' 'bout my generation)
I hope I die before I get old (talkin' 'bout my generation)

[KEZHEAD]

Meet me in the crowd, people, people
Throw your love around, love me, love me
Take it into town, happy, happy
Put it in the ground where the flowers grow
Gold and silver shine

[rdiberna]

In the beginning, I believed every word that you said,
Now that you're gone my world is in shreds
Oh, you loved me and left me,
You took all the things that I needed so bad,
I'm standing here wondering where is the love that I had?
Oh, give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told,
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue

[KEZHEAD]

As time goes on
I realize
Just what you mean
To me
And now
Now that you're near
Promise your love
That I've waited to share
And dreams
Of our moments together
Colour my world with hope of loving you

[Brian129]

It's getting near dawn
When lights close their tired eyes
I'll soon be with you my love
To give you my dawn surprise
I'll be with you darling soon
I'll be with you when the stars start falling

[rdiberna]

Honey, you are my shining star
Don't you go away, oh, baby
Wanna be right here where you are
Until my dying day, yeah, baby

[KEZHEAD]

Sugar
Oh, honey, honey
You are my candy girl
And you got me wanting you

[rdiberna]

Candy came from out on the Island
In the back room she was everybody's darling
But she never lost her head
Even when she was giving head
… She says, "Hey, babe
Take a walk on the wild side"
Said, "Hey, babe
Take a walk on the wild side"

[Brian129]

Your daddy says I'm no good
Your mama says keep away
I got to tell you truthful, girl, you can never make me stay
I got somethin' up and down this road
I'll bet you my last dollar, girl, I could give you love the most

[KEZHEAD]

Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock and roll
Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock and roll
When evening rolls around
And it's time to go to town
Where do you go
To rock and roll?

[Brian129]

She looked at me and I, I could see
That before too long I'd fall in love with her
She wouldn't dance with another
When I saw her standing there

[weironourown2]

Like a mountain that's growing, a river that rolls
Let me come over, I know you know
When you dance I can really love

[KEZHEAD]

I'll buy you a diamond ring, my friend
If it makes you feel all right
I'll get you anything, my friend
If it makes you feel all right
'Cause I don't care too much for money
But money can't buy me love
