Lyrical Response

[WhoTom]

Throw my ticket out the window
Throw my suitcase out there, too
Throw my troubles out the door
I don't need them any more
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you

 

[SinceThe70s]

All my bags are packed
I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

 

But the dawn is breakin'
It's early morn
The taxi's waitin'
He's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome
I could die

[KD in CA]

It was an early morning yesterday
I was up before the dawn
And I really have enjoyed my stay
But I must be moving on

[Gray Beard]

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday

 

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly

[SinceThe70s]

Tomorrow
You're gonna have to live with the things you say
Tomorrow
You'll have to cross bridges that you burned today
Tomorrow
And everything you do, it's coming back for you
You'll never outrun what waits for you
Tomorrow

[Gray Beard]

The sun'll come out
Tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar
That tomorrow
There'll be sun!

 

Just thinkin' about
Tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs
And the sorrow
'Til there's none!

[WhoTom]

Then I began to fall so low,
Lost all my friends, had no place to go.
If I get my hands on a dollar again,
I'm gonna hang on to it until the eagle grins.

 

[Gugny]

You know I've been to the edge,
And I stood and looked down
I lost a lot of friends there baby,
I got no time to mess around
So if you want it got to bleed for me baby
You got to got to bleed for me baby
Got to got to got to bleed for me baby

[Gray Beard]

She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all
Only women bleed

[The Real Buffalo Joe]

Good morning, your honor
May I approach the bench?

I don't give a damn what anyone thinks
I stay up all night and I smoke and I drink
I'm a wanted man and I'm blowin' town
Don't waste your time tryin' to hunt me down

The cops are sayin' I belong behind bars
And I'm guilty, I'm guilty as charged

[WhoTom]

Well I had a friend named Rambling Bob who used to steal, gamble, and rob
He thought he was the smartest guy in town
But I found out last Monday that Bob got locked up Sunday
They got him in the jailhouse way downtown

He's in the jailhouse now, he's in the jailhouse now
I told him once or twice to quit playin' cards and a shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now

[Gray Beard]

The warden threw a party in the county jail.
The prison band was there and they began to wail.
The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing.
You should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing.

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock.

[The Real Buffalo Joe]

Early one mornin' while makin' the rounds
I took a shot of cocaine and shot my woman down
I went right home and I went to bed
I stuck that lovin' forty-four beneath my head.

Got up next mornin' and I grabbed that gun
Took a shot of cocaine and away I run
Made a good run but I run too slow
They overtook me down in Juarez Mexico.

Laid in the hot joint takin' the pill
In walked a sheriff from Jericho Hill
He said Willy Lee your name is not Jack Brown
You're the dirty hack that shot your woman down.

I said yes sir my name is Willie Lee
If you've got a warrant just read it to me
Shot her down cause she made me slow
I thought I was her daddy but she had five more.

When I was arrested I was dressed in black
They put me on a train and they took me back
Had no friends for to go my bail
They slapped my dried up carcass in the county jail.

[WhoTom]

Got two reasons why I cry
Away each lonely night
The first one's named sweet Anne Marie
And she's my heart's delight
Second one is prison, baby
The sheriff's on my trail
And if he catches up with me
I'll spend my life in jail

 

[Gray Beard]

Indiana wants me, Lord, I can't go back there
I wish I had you to talk to
If a man ever needed dyin', he did
No one had the right to say what he said about you
And it's so cold and lonely here without you
Out there the law's a comin'
I'm gettin' so tired of runnin'

 

Indiana wants me, Lord, I can't go back there

[Bill from NYC]

I was a lonely soul,

I had nobody 'til I met you.

Now you, keep me waiting,

All of the time,

What should I do?

 

[WhoTom]

Coming to you on a dusty road
Good loving, I got a truck load
And when you get it, you got something
Don't worry, 'cause I'm coming
I'm a soul man

 

[PastaJoe]

Truckin', up to Buffalo
Been thinkin', you got to mellow slow
It takes time, you pick a place to go
And just keep truckin' on

[Gray Beard]

Electrical banana
Is gonna be a sudden craze
Electrical banana
Is bound to be the very next phase

They call it mellow yellow

[SinceThe70s]

Blackberry mold and lobster claws
Swampy water and hamster paws
Vodka, jello, and piglet snouts
Jalapeno to make the kids shout

 

Rooster beaks and donut holes
Dew rops, lollipops, stripper poles
Reduced to dust on a giant flyer
Serve it up cold

 

Electric spider
