The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!

It was seven hundred fence posts from your place to ours
Neither one of us was old enough to drive a car
Sometimes it was rainin', sometimes it would shine
We wore out that gravel road between your house and mine
I'd start walkin' your way, you'd start walkin' mine
We'd meet in the middle, 'neath that old Georgia pine
We'd gain a lot of ground, 'cause we'd both give a little
There ain't no road too long, when we meet in the middle
It's been seven years, tomorrow, since we said our vows
Under that old pine tree, you ought to see it now
Standin' in the backyard, remindin' me and you
That if we don't see eye-to-eye, there's somethin' we can do
I'd start walkin' your way, you'd start walkin' mine
We'd meet in the middle, 'neath that old Georgia pine
We'd gain a lot of ground, 'cause we'd both give a little
There ain't no road too long, when we meet in the middle
Babe, I love the way we work it out
That's what love is all about
I'd start walkin' your way, you'd start walkin' mine
We'd meet in the middle, 'neath that old Georgia pine
We'd gain a lot of ground, 'cause we'd both give a little
There ain't no road too long, when we meet in the middle
I'd start walkin' your way, you'd start walkin' mine
We'd meet in the middle, 'neath that old Georgia pine
We'd gain a lot of ground, 'cause we'd both give a little
There ain't no road too long, when we meet in the middle
I'd start walking your way, you'd start walking mine
We'd meet in the middle, 'neath that old Georgia pine
We'd gain a lot of ground, 'cause we'd both give a little
There ain't no road too long, when we meet in the middle
Well I don't know why I came here tonight
I've got a feeling that something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I don't know how I'll get down the stairs
Well it's clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right
Here I am stuck in the MIDDLE and with you
Yes I'm stuck in the MIDDLE with you
And I'm wondering what it is I should do
It's so hard to keep this smile on my face
When I'm going all over the place
Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right
Here I am stuck in the MIDDLE with you
When you started off with nothing
And you're proud that you're a self-made man
And your family comes all crawling
Slaps you on the back and saying
Please, please
Trying to make some sense of it all
But I can see it makes no sense at all
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor
I don't think I can take anymore
Well, clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right
Here I am stuck in the MIDDLE with you
Ooh, stuck in the MIDDLE with you
Yeah, stuck in the MIDDLE with you
Here I am stuck in the MIDDLE with you
Here I am stuck in the MIDDLE with you
Yes I am stuck in the MIDDLE with you
Yeah, stuck in the MIDDLE with you
Ooh, stuck in the MIDDLE with you
Well I tried to make it Sunday, but I got so damn depressed
That I set my sights on Monday and I got myself undressed
I ain't ready for the altar but I do agree there's times
When a woman sure can be a friend of mine
Well, I keep on thinkin' 'bout you, Sister Golden Hair surprise
And I just can't live without you; can't you see it in my eyes?
I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find
But it doesn't mean you ain't been on my mind
Will you meet me in the MIDDLE , will you meet me in the air?
Will you love me just a little, just enough to show you care?
Well I tried to fake it, I don't mind sayin', I just can't make it
Well, I keep on thinkin' 'bout you, Sister Golden Hair surprise
And I just can't live without you; can't you see it in my eyes?
Now I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find
But it doesn't mean you ain't been on my mind
Will you meet me in the MIDDLE , will you meet me in the air?
Will you love me just a little, just enough to show you care?
Well I tried to fake it, I don't mind sayin', I just can't make it
Doo wop doo wop ...

[Verse 1]
Did you see that man in the limousine?
With the pretty girl, he is fifty and the girl's only seventeen
But she doesn't care, and she never will
If he's ninety-five she don't give a damn
Just as long as he pays the bill
[Verse 2]
Did you see that man with a fat cigar?
He just left his lunch with a belly full of lobster and caviar
He can choose the wine from a vintage year
He will drink champagne in his limousine
While the rest of us drink a beer
[Chorus]
'Cause he's the man in the MIDDLE, never second fiddle
Just like a spider in a cobweb
Hard as a hammer, not the kind of boss
You double-cross
'Cause he's the man in the middle, knows the way to diddle
He's never bothered by his conscience
Deals with the Devil 'cause he wants to be
Man in the middle, the middle, the middle
[Post-Chorus]
In the middle, in the middle, in the middle...
[Verse 3]
But you see that man made a big mistake
Even though he's got all his servants and a mansion beside a lake
And the money too, all that he can spend
He can buy the most, nearly anything
But he can't buy an honest friend
[Chorus]
'Cause he's the man in the middle, never second fiddle
Just like a spider in a cobweb
Hard as a hammer, not the kind of boss
You double-cross
'Cause he's the man in the middle, knows the way to diddle
He's never bothered by his conscience
Deals with the Devil 'cause he wants to be
Man in the middle, the middle, the middle
[Post-Chorus]
In the middle, in the middle, in the middle...

Six o'clock already
I was just in the MIDDLE of a dream
I was kissin' Valentino
By a crystal blue Italian stream
But I can't be late
'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
These are the days
When you wish your bed was already made
It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
'Cause that's my fun day
My "I don't have to run" day
It's just another manic Monday
Have to catch an early train
Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an airplane
I still couldn't make it on time
'Cause it takes me so long just to figure out
What I'm gonna wear
Blame it on the train
But the boss is already there
It's just another manic Monday
Wish it was Sunday
'Cause that's my fun day
My "I don't have to run" day
It's just another manic Monday
All of my nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down?
(Last night, last night)
Doesn't it matter
That I have to feed the both of us
Employment's down
He tells me in his bedroom voice
"C'mon honey, let's go make some noise"
Time it goes so fast
(When you're having fun)
It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
'Cause that's my fun day
"I don't have to run" day
It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
'Cause that's my fun day
It's just a manic Monday

The MIDDLE of the road is trying to find me
I'm standing in the MIDDLE of life with my plans behind me
Well I got a smile for everyone I meet
As long as you don't try dragging my bay
Or dropping the bomb on my street
Now come on baby
Get in the road
Oh come on now
In the MIDDLE of the road, yeah
In the MIDDLE of the road you see the darndest things
Like fat guys driving 'round in jeeps through the city
Wearing big diamond rings and silk suits
Past corrugated tin shacks full up with kids
Oh man I don't mean a hampstead nursery
When you own a big chunk of the bloody third world
The babies just come with the scenery
Oh come on baby
Get in the road
Oh come on now
In the MIDDLE of the road, yeah
One...two...three...four...
The MIDDLE of the road is no private cul-de-sac
I can't get from the cab to the curb
Without some little jerk on my back
Don't harass me, can't you tell
I'm going home, I'm tired as hell
I'm not the cat I used to be
I got a kid, I'm thirty-three
Baby, get in the road
Come on now
In the MIDDLE of the road
Yeah

It's Britney, bitch
I see you
And I just wanna dance with you
Every time they turn the lights down
Just wanna go that extra mile for you (you)
Public display of affection (ah-ah-ah)
Feels like no one else in the room (but you)
We can get down like there's no one around
We keep on rockin' (we keep on rockin'), we keep on rockin' (we keep on rockin')
Cameras are flashin' while we're dirty dancin'
They keep watchin' (and they keep watchin'), keep watchin'
Feels like the crowd is saying
Gimme, gimme (more), gimme (more), gimme, gimme (more)
Gimme, gimme (more), gimme (more), gimme, gimme (more)
Gimme, gimme (more), gimme (more), gimme, gimme (more)
Gimme, gimme (more), gimme (more), gimme, gimme (more)
A CENTRE of attention (do you feel that?)
Even when we're up against the wall
You got me in a crazy position (yeah)
If you're on a mission (uh-huh), you got my permission, oh (oh)
We can get down like there's no one around
We keep on rockin' (we keep on rockin'), we keep on rockin' (oh, uh-huh)
Cameras are flashin' while we're dirty dancin'
They keep watchin' (they keep watchin'), keep watchin'
(Feels like the crowd is sayin')
Gimme, gimme (more), gimme (more), gimme, gimme (more)

They want more? Well, I'll give them more
Ow (more)

Gimme, gimme (more), gimme (more), gimme, gimme more (ooh-ooh)

I bet you didn't see this one comin'
The Incredible Lago (more, more, m-m-m-m-m-m-)
The legendary Miss Britney Spears
And the unstoppable Danja
Ah, you're gonna have to remove me
'Cause I ain't going nowhere (more, more, m-m-m-m-m-m-more)

Leave your cares behind
Come with us and find
The pleasures of a journey to the center of the mind
Come along if you care
Come along if you dare
Take a ride to the land inside of your mind
Beyond the seas of thought
Beyond the realm of what
Across the streams of hopes and dreams
Where things are really not
Come along if you care
Come along if you dare
Take a ride to the land inside of your mind
But please realize
You'll probably be surprised
For it's the land unknown to man
Where fantasy is fact
So if you can, please understand
You might not come back
Come along if you care
Come along if you dare
Take a ride to the land inside and you'll see
How happy life could be
If all of mankind
Would take the time to journey to the CENTER of the mind
Would take the time to journey to the center of the mind
Center of the mind

If you want me
You can find me
Left of CENTRE
Off of the strip
In the outskirts
In the fringes
In the corner
Out of the grip
If you want me
You can find me
Left of centre
Off of the strip
In the outskirts
In the fringes
In the corner
Out of the grip
When they ask me "What are you looking at?"
I always answer "Nothing much" (not much)
I think they know that
I'm looking at them I think they think
I must be out of touch
But I'm only
In the outskirts
And in the fringes
On the edge
And off the avenue
And if you want me
You can find me
Left of centre
Wondering about you
I think that somehow
Somewhere inside of us
We must be similar
If not the same
So I continue
To be wanting you

If you want me

There's no present, there's no future
I don't even know about the past
It's all timeless and never-ending
And for me to think it's all too vast
It goes forever and ever
You thought you knew but you never
There goes tomorrow
Journey to the CENTRE of eternity
Journey to the CENTRE of eternity
The time is coming, but also going
And it's leaving never to return
It may be heaven, could be forever
But if it's hell then you can watch me burn
It goes forever and ever
You thought you knew but you never
There goes tomorrow
Journey to the CENTRE of eternity
Journey to the CENTRE of eternity
I've got to travel forever
It's all within my mind
An endless path to endeavor
Forever is a long, long time
There's no secrets and no corruption
In the CENTRE of infinity
There's no limits to non-existence
And no beginning to my destiny
It goes forever and ever
You thought you knew but you never
There goes tomorrow
Journey to the CENTRE of eternity
Journey to the CENTRE of eternity
Journey to the CENTRE of eternity
Journey to the CENTRE of eternity

My daddy was the family bassman
My mama was an engineer
And I was born one dark gray morn'
With music coming in my ears, in my ears
They call me Baby Driver
And once upon a pair of wheels
I hit the road and I'm gone
What's my number?
I wonder how your engines feel
Scoot down the road, what's my NUMBER?
I wonder how your engines feel
Shine a light
My daddy was a prominent frogman
My mama's in the Naval reserve
When I was young I carried a gun
But I never got the chance to serve, I did not serve
They call me Baby Driver
And once upon a pair of wheels
I hit the road and I'm gone
What's my number?
I wonder how your engines feel
Scoot down the road, what's my number?
I wonder how your engines feel
My daddy got a big promotion
My mama got a raise in pay
There's no one home, we're all alone
Oh, come to my room and play, yes, we can play
I'm not talking about your pigtails
But I'm talking 'bout your sex appeal
I hit the road and I'm gone
What's my number?
I wonder how your engines-
Scoot down the road, what's my number?
I wonder how your engines feel
On video, that is the world champion
Just completing his run
On the spectator side...

We hear you're leaving, that's okay
I thought our little wild time had just begun
I guess you kind of scared yourself, you turn and run
But if you have a change of heart
Rikki don't lose that NUMBER
You don't want to call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself
Rikki don't lose that number
It's the only one you own
You might use it if you feel better
When you get home
I have a friend in town, he's heard your name
We can go out driving on Slow Hand Row
We could stay inside and play games, I don't know
And you could have a change of heart
Rikki don't lose that number
You don't want to call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself
Rikki don't lose that number
It's the only one you own
You might use it if you feel better
When you get home
You tell yourself you're not my kind
But you don't even know your mind
And you could have a change of heart
Rikki don't lose that number
You don't want to call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself
Rikki don't lose that number
It's the only one you own
You might use it if you feel better

Super trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
Like I always do
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
I was sick and tired of everything
When I called you last night from Glasgow
All I do is eat and sleep and sing
Wishing every show was the last show (wishing every show was the last show)
So imagine I was glad to hear you're coming (glad to hear you're coming)
Suddenly I feel all right (and suddenly it's gonna be)
And it's gonna be so different when I'm on the stage tonight
Tonight the super trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun (super trouper)
Smiling, having fun (super trouper)
Feeling like a NUMBER one
Tonight the super trouper beams are gonna blind me (super trouper)
But I won't feel blue (super trouper)
Like I always do (super trouper)
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
Facing twenty-thousand of your friends
How can anyone be so lonely?
Part of a success that never ends
Still I'm thinking about you only (still I'm thinking about you only)
There are moments when I think I'm going crazy (think I'm going crazy)
But it's gonna be alright (you'll soon be changing everything)
Everything will be so different when I'm on the stage tonight
Tonight the super trouper lights are gonna find me (super trouper)
Shining like the sun (super trouper)
Smiling, having fun (super trouper)
Feeling like a NUMBER one
Tonight the super trouper beams are gonna blind me (super trouper)
But I won't feel blue (super trouper)
Like I always do (super trouper)
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
So I'll be there when you arrive
The sight of you will prove to me I'm still alive
And when you take me in your arms and hold me tight
I know it's gonna mean so much tonight
Tonight the super trouper lights are gonna find me (super trouper)
Shining like the sun (super trouper)
Smiling, having fun (super trouper)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the super trouper beams are gonna blind me (super trouper)
But I won't feel blue (super trouper)
Like I always do (super trouper)
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
Super trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun (super trouper)
Smiling, having fun (super trouper)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the super trouper beams are gonna blind me (super trouper)
But I won't feel blue (super trouper)
Like I always do (super trouper)

I take my card and I stand in line
To make a buck I work overtime
Dear Sir letters keep coming in the mail
I work my back till it's racked with pain
The boss can't even recall my name
I show up late and I'm docked
It never fails
I feel like just another
Spoke in a great big wheel
Like a tiny blade of grass
In a great big field
To workers I'm just another drone
To Ma Bell I'm just another phone
I'm just another statistic on a sheet
To teachers I'm just another child
To IRS I'm another file
I'm just another consensus on the street
Gonna cruise out of this city
Head down to the sea
Gonna shout out at the ocean
Hey it's me
And I feel like a NUMBER
Feel like a NUMBER
Feel like a stranger
A stranger in this land
I feel like a NUMBER
I'm not a NUMBER
I'm not a NUMBER
Dammit I'm a man
I said I'm a man

If you LEAVE me now, you'll take away the biggest part of me
Ooohh no
Baby please don't go
And if you leave me now, you'll take away the very heart of me
Ooohh no
Baby please don't go
Ooohh girl
I just want you to stay
A love like ours is love that's hard to find
How could we let it slip away
We've come too far to leave it all behind
How could we end it all this way
When tomorrow comes and we'll both regret
The things we said today
A love like ours is love that's hard to find
How could we let it slip away
We've come too far to leave it all behind
How could we end it all this way
When tomorrow comes and we'll both regret

If you leave me now, you'll take away the biggest part of me
Ooohh no
Baby please don't go
Ooohh girl
I just got to have you by my side
Ooohh no
Baby please don't go
Ooohh mama
I just got to have your loving here

At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Thinking I could live without you by my side
And after spending nights
Thinking how you did me wrong
I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
Now you're back
From outer space
And I find you here
With that sad look upon your face
I should've changed that stupid lock
Or made you LEAVE your key
If I'd've known for a second
You'd be back to bother me
Go on, go, walk out the door
Turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Think I'd crumble?
You think I'd lay down and die?
No, not I, I will survive
Long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
I've got my life to live
And all my love to give and
I will survive
I, I, I will survive
It took all my strength not to fall apart
Trying with all my might to mend my broken heart
I spent so many nights feeling sorry for myself
How I cried
But now I hold my head up high
And you see me, somebody new
I'm not that lonely little person
Still in love with you
Now you come droppin' in
Expectin' me to be free
Now I'm saving my lovin'
For someone who's loving me
Go on and go, walk out the door
Turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Thinkin' I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
No, not I, I will survive
Long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
I've got my life to live, and all my love to give
And I will survive
I, I will survive
Go on, go, walk out the door
Turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Think I'd crumble?
You think I'd lay down and die?
No, not I, I will survive
Long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got my life to live
And all my love to give and
I will survive
I, I, I will survive
Pink Floyd
Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
LEAVE, but don't leave me
Look around and choose your own ground
For long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be
Run, rabbit, run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one
For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave

Leaning in your corner like a candidate for wax
Sidewalk social scientist don't get no satisfaction from your cigarette
It's ten to ten and time is running out
Lock up all your memories, get outa here, you know that we can run
Today can last another million years
Today could be the end of me
It's 11:59, and I want to stay alive
Pumping like a fugitive in cover from the night
Take it down the freeway like a bullet to the ocean
Wait until the morning, take tomorrow by the hand
Take it down the highway like a rocket to the ocean, we can run
Today can last another million years
Today could be the end of me
It's 11:59, and I want to stay alive
Hanging on a frequency and burning like a fire
Boy you've got the motion down, it's getting late, I'm tired and I've lost control
Don't LEAVE me here, time is running out
Take me down the highway like a rocket to the ocean, we can run
Today can last another million years
Today could be the end of me
It's 11:59, and I want to stay alive

I'm here
Just like I said
Though its breaking every rule I've ever made
My racin' heart
Is just the same
Why make it strong to break it once again?
And I'd love to say I do
Give everything to you
But I can never now be true
So I say
I think I'd better LEAVE right now
Before I fall any deeper
I think I'd better leave right now
Feelin' weaker and weaker
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper
I think I'd better leave right now
I'm here
So please explain
Why you're openin' up a healin' wound again
I'm a little more careful
Perhaps it shows
But if I lose the highs, at least I'm spared the lows
Now I tremble in your arms
What could be the harm
To feel my spirit calm
So I say
I think I'd better leave right now
Before I fall any deeper
I think I'd better leave right now
I'm feelin' weaker and weaker
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper
I think I'd better leave right now
I wouldn't know how to say
How good it feels seeing you today
I see you've got your smile back
Now you say your right on track
But you may never know why
Once bitten twice is shy
If I'm proud perhaps I should explain
I couldn't bear to lose you again
I think I'd better leave right now
Before I fall any deeper
I think I'd better leave right now
Feelin' weaker and weaker
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper
I think I'd better leave right now
Yes I will
I think I'd better leave right now
I'm feelin' weaker and weaker
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper
I think I'd better leave right now

Blowing 'cross the universe
Like a shooting star that lost its way
Looking back with no regrets
Living for what hasn't happened yet
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em - No rhyme or reason
Break out to make out - No change in the season
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em - Put out or get out
Simple survival - No more denial
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em
Roller coaster flies off the track
Hits you in the face, stabs you in the back (in the back)
They Jake your right, LEAVE nothing left
Steal you blind, your mind and LEAVE you deaf
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em - No rhyme or reason
State of the nation - Pure intoxication
Feel the vibration - The anticipation
Simple survival - No more denial
Dont wanna waste no time
I'm never losing track
I've seen it all and so much more
But I ain't seen nothing yet
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em - No rhyme or reason
Break out to make out - No change in the season
Feel the vibration - the anticipation
Simple survival - No more denial
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em
Love 'em or LEAVE 'em
Baby, take off your coat...real slow
Baby, take off your shoes...here, I'll take your shoes
Baby, take off your dress
Yes, yes, yes
You can leave your hat on
You can leave your hat on
You can leave your hat on
Go on over there and turn on the light...no, all the lights
Now come back here and stand on this chair...that's right
Raise your arms up in to the air...shake 'em
You give me a reason to live
You give me a reason to live
You give me a reason to live
Suspicious minds are talking
Trying to tear us apart
They say that my love is wrong
They don't know what love is
They don't know what love is
They don't know what love is
They don't know what love is
I know what love is
Mental As Anything
Words were exchanged last night
You could call it a fight
It's such a shame, I never thought we would
Wouldn't be so bad, if it weren't so good
I've had enough of that
With other loves in days gone by
It wasn't much I know
Mmm just enough, enough to make me cry
If you leave me, can I come too?
We can always stay
But if you leave me, can I come too?
And if you go, can I come too?
Don't let it happen again
'Cause that I couldn't take
Ooh once was quite enough
It's easy to forgive, harder to forget
If you leave me, can I come too?
We can always stay
But if you leave me, can I come too?
And if you go, can I come too?
I've had enough of that
Yay, yay, yay-ay, yay-ay
Can I come too?

"The problem is all inside your head"
She said to me
"The answer is easy if you
Take it logically
I'd like to help you in your struggle
To be free
There must be fifty ways
To LEAVE your lover"
She said, "It's really not my habit to intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning
Won't be lost or misconstrued
But I'll repeat myself
At the risk of being crude
There must be fifty ways
To LEAVE your lover
Fifty ways to LEAVE your lover"
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Ooh, slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
She said, "It grieves me so
To see you in such pain
I wish there was something I could do
To make you smile again"
I said, "I appreciate that
And would you please explain
About the fifty ways?"
She said, "Why don't we both
Just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning
You'll begin to see the light"
And then she kissed me
And I realized she probably was right
There must be fifty ways
To leave your lover
Fifty ways to LEAVE Nyour lover
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free

Once in your life you find her
Someone that turns your heart around
And next thing you know you're closing down the town
Wake up and it's still with you
Even though you left her way 'cross town
Wondering to yourself, "Hey! What've I found?"
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
I know it's crazy, but it's true
If you get caught between the moon and NEW York City
The best that you can do
The best that you can do
Is fall in love
Arthur, he does as he pleases
All of his life, his master's toys
Deep in his heart, he's just, he's just a boy
Living his life one day at a time
And showing himself a pretty good time
Laughing about the way they want him to be
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
I know it's crazy, but it's true
If you get caught between the moon and New York City
The best that you can do (The best that you can do)
The best that you can do

I was born on this mountain
A long time ago
Before they knocked down the timber
And strip-mined the coal
When you rose in the mornin'
Before it was light
To go down in that dark hole
And come back up at night
I was born on this mountain
This mountain's my home
She holds me and keeps me
From worry and woe
Well, they took everything that she gave
Now they're gone
But I'll die on this mountain
This mountain's my home
I was young on this mountain
But now I am old
And I knew every holler
Every cool swimmin' hole
'Til one night I lay down
And woke up to find
That my childhood was over
And I went down in the mine
I was born on this mountain
This mountain's my home
She holds me and keeps me
From worry and woe
Well, they took everything that she gave
Now they're gone
But I'll die on this mountain
This mountain's my home
There's a hole in this mountain
It's dark and it's deep
And God only knows
All the secrets it keeps
There's a chill in the air
Only miners can feel
There're ghosts in the tunnels
That the company sealed
I was born on this mountain
This mountain's my home
She holds me and keeps me
From worry and woe
Well, they took everything that she gave
Now they're gone
But I'll die on this mountain
This mountain's my home

Lips like strawberry wine

This old heart of MINE been broke a thousand times
Each time you break away, I feel you're goin' to stay
Lonely nights that come, memories that flow
Bringing you back again, hurting me more and more
Maybe it's my mistake to show this love that I feel inside
'Cause each day that passes by
You got me never knowing if I'm coming or going, 'cause
I love you, yes, I do, this old heart
I love you, yes, I do, yes, I do, breathe for me
I try hard to hide my hurt inside
This old heart of mine, always keeps me crying
The way you're treatin' me, leaves me incomplete
Girl, you're here for the day, gone for the week
But if you leave me a hundred times
A hundred times, I'll take you back
I'm yours, whenever you want me
I'm not too proud to shout it, tell the world about it, 'cause
I love you, this old heart, is waitin' for you
(I don't like ya) I love you, this old heart waits for you
This old heart of mine been broke a thousand times
Each time you break away, I feel you're goin' to stay
Lonely nights that come, memories that flow
Bringin' you back again, hurting me more and more
Maybe it's my mistake to show this love I feel inside, girl
'Cause each day that passes by
You got me never knowing if I'm coming or going, 'cause-

I know it's out of fashion
And a trifle uncool
But I can't help it
I'm a romantic fool
It's a habit of MINE
To watch the sun go down
On Echo Beach, I watch the sun go down
From nine to five, I have to spend my time at work
My job is very boring, I'm an office clerk
The only thing that helps me pass the time away
Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach someday
On a silent summer evening
The sky's alive with lights
A building in the distance
Surrealistic sight
On Echo Beach
Waves make the only sound
On Echo Beach
There's not a soul around
From nine to five, I have to spend my time at work
My job is very boring, I'm an office clerk
The only thing that helps me pass the time away
Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach someday
Echo Beach, far away in time

Cold as ice cream but still as sweet
Dry your eyes Sunday girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide Sunday girl
Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I stay away all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your loving means to me
She can't catch up with the working crowd
The weekend mood and she's feeling proud
Live in dreams Sunday girl
Baby, I would like to go out tonight
If I go with you my folks'll get uptight
Stay at home Sunday girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide Sunday girl
When I saw you again in the summertime
If your love was as sweet as MINE
I could be Sunday's girl
Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I stay away all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your loving means to me
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up and wait
I got the blues, please, please, please come see

I'm a cold heartbreaker, fit to burn and I'll rip your heart in two
And I'll leave you lyin' on the bed
I'll be out the door before you wake 'em, it's nothin' new to you
'Cause I think we've seen that movie, too
'Cause you could be MINE, but you're way out of line
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue
You get nothin' done, I said, you could be MINE, aw
Now, holidays come and then they go, it's nothin' new today
Collect another memory
When I come home, late at night, don't ask me where I've been
Just count your stars I'm home again
'Cause you could be MINE, but you're way out of line
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue
You get nothin' done, I said, you could be MINE
You could be MINE, you could be MINE
You could be MINE, you could be MINE
You could be MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE
You've gone sketching too many times
Ooh, why don't you give it a rest?
Why must you find another reason to cry?
Well, you're breakin' down my back and I've been rackin' out my brain
It don't matter how we make it, 'cause it always ends the same
You can push it for more mileage, but your flaps are wearing thin
And I could sleep on it until mornin', but this nightmare never ends
Don't forget to call my lawyers with ridiculous demands
An' you can take the pity so far, but it's more than I can stand
'Cause this couch-trip's gettin' older, tell me how long has it been?
'Cause five years is forever, and you haven't grown up yet
Oh, you could be MINE, but you're way out of line
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue
You get nothin' done, I said, you could, you should be
You could be MINE
Oh, you could be MINE
You could be MINE
Aw, you could be MINE
You could be MINE
Aw, you could be MINE
Aw, you could be MINE
Aw, you could be MINE
You could be MINE, yeah
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky (Sky)
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stared too long I'd probably break down and cry
Whoa-oh-oh! Sweet child o' mine
Whoa, oh-oh-oh! Sweet love of mine
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm, safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by
Whoa-oh-oh! Sweet child o' mine
Ooh, oh-oh-oh! Sweet love of mine
Oh yeah! Whoa-oh-oh-oh! Sweet child o' mine
Ooh-oh, oh, oh! Sweet love of mine
Whoa, oh-oh-oh! Sweet child o' mine, ooh yeah
Ooh! Sweet love of mine
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Ooh, where do we go?

I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
Now they're frightened of leaving it
Ev'ryone's weaving it,
Coming on strong all the time,
All through' the day I me mine.
I-I-me-me mine, I-I-me-me mine,
I-I-me-me mine, I-I-me-me mine.
All I can hear
I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
Even those tears
I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
No-one's frightened of playing it
Ev'ryone's saying it,
Flowing more freely than wine,
All through' the day I me mine.
I-I-me-me mine, I-I-me-me mine,
I-I-me-me mine, I-I-me-me mine.
All I can hear
I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
Even those tears
I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
No-one's frightened of playing it
Everyone's saying it,
Flowing more freely than wine,
All through' your life I me mine.
