Lyrical Response

[PastaJoe]

Stand by the stairway you'll see something certain to tell you
Confusion has its cost
Love isn't lying it's loose in a lady who lingers
Saying she is lost
And choking on hello

They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other

[WhoTom]

One, two, three o'clock, four o'clock, rock
Five, six, seven o'clock, eight o'clock, rock
Nine, ten, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, rock
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight

[PastaJoe]

You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law
You ask me to enter but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holdin' on to what you got
When all you got is hurt

 

One love, one blood
One life, you got to do what you should
One life, with each other
Sisters, brothers

[Bill from NYC]

I wanna say to my sisters and my brothers
Keep the faith
When the storm flies and the wind blows
Go on at a steady pace

 

When the battle is fought and the victory's won
We can all shout together we have overcome
We'll talk to the Father and the Son
When we make it to the promised land

[Joe Ferguson forever]

Father and Son

 

It's not time to make a change
Just relax, take it easy
You're still young, that's your fault
There's so much you have to know

Find a girl, settle down
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old
But I'm happy

I was once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found
Something going on

But take your time, think a lot
Think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not

Wooden ships on the water, very free and easy
Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be
Silver people on the shoreline, let us be
Talkin' 'bout very free and easy

 

[SinceThe70s]

And I see lonely ships upon the water
Better save the women and children first

[DD4Bills]

Ooh my hopes are as the leaves upon the water

Just sunk in the night

And though I know you couldn't care, you oughtta

Ah, the end of a life

Or maybe when you're older, and you're thinking back

You might recall

Now did I act carefully, did I do right?

Or were we meant to be, all of our lives In love and harmony, all of our lives?

[WhoTom]

And as I walk on through troubled times
My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes
So where are the strong, and who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony, sweet harmony?

[muppy]

Prepare yourself you know it's a must
Gotta have a friend in Jesus
So you know that when you die
He's gonna recommend you
To the spirit in the sky (spirit in the sky)

 

Oh he'll recommend you to the spirit in the sky
That's where you're gonna go when you die (when you die)
When you die and they lay you to rest
You're gonna go to the place that's the best

[PastaJoe]

I'm not scared of dying 
And I don't really care
If it's peace you find in dying
Well, then let the time be near

 

If it's peace you find in dying
And if dying time is near
Just bundle up my coffin cause 
It's cold way down there
I hear that's it's cold way down there
Yeah, crazy cold way down there

 

And when I die and when I'm gone
There'll be one child born 
In this world, carry on, to carry on

[WhoTom]

I don't really mind how much you love me
Ooh, a little is alright
When you say, "Come over and spend the night
Tonight, " tonight

[muppy]

Bruce Berry was a working man
He used to load that Econoline van.
A sparkle was in his eye
But his life was in his hands.

Well, late at night when the people were gone
He used to pick up my guitar
And sing a song in a shaky voice
That was real as the day was long.

 

Tonight's the night, yes it is, tonight's the night
Tonight's the night, yes it is, tonight's the night.

[Bills4everNY]

They got Chuck Berry up in outer space

Singing Johnny B Good

Down on earth he's doing time

Said he'd pay those taxes if he could

It's all so complicated now 

[muppy]

Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now
Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth
Rip down all hate, I screamed
Lies that life is black and white
Spoke from my skull I dreamed
Romantic facts of musketeers
Foundationed deep, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now

[PastaJoe]

I walked 47 miles on barbed wire
Cobra snake for a necktie
Built a house by the roadside
Made of rattlesnake hide

 

Brand new chimney made on top
Made out of human skulls
Come on, baby, take a walk with me
Tell me who do you love?

[muppy]

 

Come on, come on, come on, come on
Now touch me, babe
Can't you see that I am not afraid?
What was that promise that you made?
Why won't you tell me what she said?
What was that promise that you made?
 

[PastaJoe]

Not to touch the earth
Not to see the sun
Nothing left to do, but
Run, run, run
Let's run
Let's run
House upon the hill
Moon is lying still
Shadows of the trees
Witnessing the wild breeze
C'mon baby run with me
Let's run

[muppy]

She says her love for me could never die
But that'd change if she ever found out about you and I
Oh but her love is cold
Wouldn't hurt her if she didn't know, 'cause
When it gets too much
I need to feel your touch

 

I'm gonna run to you
I'm gonna run to you
'Cause when the feelin's right I'm gonna run all night
I'm gonna run to you

[WhoTom]

Seems like a touch, a touch too much
Too much for my body, too much for my brain
This damn woman's gonna drive me insane
