Lyrical Response

[muppy]

'Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner
I'm a lover and I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun
I'm a joker, I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one
 

[PastaJoe]

Well, I've got to run to keep from hidin'
And I'm bound to keep on ridin'
And I've got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider

[DD4Bills]

Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Mean so much more when I see
Silver and gold decorations
On every Christmas tree

[DrW]

Golden brown, texture like sun
Lays me down, with my mind she runs
Throughout the night
No need to fight
Never a frown with golden brown

Every time just like the last
On her ship tied to the mast
To distant lands
Takes both my hands
Never a frown with golden brown

[muppy]

… Hey
If we can solve any problem
Then why do we lose so many tears?
Oh, so you go again
When the leading man appears

 

… Always the same thing
Can't you see
We've got everything
Going on and on and on

 

… Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you, ooh

[PastaJoe]

I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby (whoa, break it)
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah, yeah, yeah (whoa, have a)
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby
You know you got it if it makes you feel good
Oh, yes indeed

[muppy]

I-I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air

 

I'm pickin' up good vibrations

She's giving me the excitations (oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (good vibrations, oom bop bop)
She's giving me the excitations (excitations, oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (oom bop bop)
She's giving me the excitations (excitations, oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (oom bop bop)
She's giving me the excitations (excitations)

[PastaJoe]

And the sign said
"Long-haired freaky people
Need not apply"
So I tucked my hair up under my hat
And I went in to ask him why
He said, "You look like a fine upstandin' young man
I think you'll do"
So I took off my hat and said, "Imagine that
Huh, me workin' for you"
Whoa

 

[muppy]

Somedays won't end ever and somedays pass on by,
I'll be working here forever, at least until I die.
Dammed if you do, dammed if you don't
I'm supposed to get a raise next week, you know damn well I won't.

Workin' for a livin' (workin')
Workin' for a livin' (workin')
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
I'm taking what they giving 'cause I'm working for a livin'.
 

[PastaJoe]

Five o'clock in the morning 
I'm up before the sun 
When my work day is over 
I'm too tired for having fun 

Well, I been tired but I been
Working in a coal mine
Going down, down 
Working in a coal mine 
Whew, about to slip down

[muppy]

My daddy worked all night in the Van Lear coal mines
All day long in the field a hoin' corn
Mommy rocked the babies at night
And read the Bible by the coal oil light
And ever' thing would start all over come break of morn'

[PastaJoe]

I believe that you and me last forever
Oh yeah, all day and night time yours, leave me never
The only time I feel alright is by your side
Girl, I want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night

[muppy]

What makes you think love will end?
When you know that my whole life depends
On you (on you)

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba (ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba)

Never, my love
Never, my love

[PastaJoe]

And when I go away
I know my heart can stay with my love
It's understood
It's in the hands of my love
And my love does it good

Whoa, whoa-whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa-whoa, whoa
My love does it good

[muppy]

Put your hand in the hand of the man
Who stilled the water
Put your hand in the hand of the man
Who calmed the sea
Take a look at yourself
And you can look at others differently
Put your hand in the hand of the man
From Galilee

So, take a look at me now
Well, there's just an empty space
And there's nothin' left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Well, take a look at me now
Well, there's just an empty space
And you comin' back to me is against the odds
And that's what I've got to face

[PastaJoe]

We've got to judge the judge
Got to find the finds
We've got to scheme the schemes
Have to line the lines
We must stake the stakes
And show the shown
We must take the takes
And know the known
Try to place the place
Where we can face the face.
We got to face the face
Try to place the place
Where we can face the face
Face the face, got to face the face.
Face the face, got to face the face.

[muppy]

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line, mmm

[PastaJoe]

And on your road to Zion
Stop for the broken and battered, they're trying
To break the mold- no storybook told
To inherit the fire, you've gotta get burned
All that we've learned, in the places we go
When the world is too heavy, and lost all control...
Leave all the things that would keep us down
It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now in this heart of mine

[DD4Bills]

He’d love to spend the night in Zion
He’s been a long while in Babylon
He’d like a lover’s wings to fly on
To a tropic isle of Avalon
