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!

Two doors down they're laughin' and drinkin' and havin' a party
But two doors down they're not aware that I'm around
But here I am, cryin' my heart out, feelin' sorry
They're havin' a party just two doors down
I think I'll cry these useless tears and get myself together
I think I'll wander down the hall and have a look around
'Cause I can't stay inside this lonely room and cry forever
I think I'd really rather join 'em two doors down, yeah
Two doors down they're laughin' and drinkin' and havin' a party (Ooh)

But here I am, cryin' my heart out, feelin' sorry (Ooh, yeah baby)
They're havin' a party just two doors down
I can't believe I'm standin' here, dry-eyed, all smiles and talkin'
Making conversation with a new love I've found
And I ask him if he'd like to be alone and we' start walkin'
Down the hall to my place waitin' two doors down, yeah
Two doors down they're laughin' and drinkin' and havin' a party (Yeah baby)
But two doors down they're not aware that I'm around (Whoa)

Havin' our own party two doors down (Hey, yeah)
Havin' our own party
Workin' and drinkin', baby
Havin' a party
Two doors down
Two doors down they're laughin' and drinkin' and havin' a party
Havin' our own party two doors down, woo

Sometimes the pleasure ain't worth the strain
It's a long old grind and it tires your mind

There are times when a woman has to say what's on her mind
Even though she knows how much it's gonna hurt
Before I say another word, let me tell you "I love you"
Let me hold you close, and say these words as gently as I can
"There's been another man that I've needed and I've loved,
But that doesn't mean I love you less,
And he knows he can't possess me, and he knows he never will,
There's just this empty place inside of me that only he can fill"
Torn between TWO lovers, feeling like a fool
Loving both of you is breaking all the rules
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool
Loving you both is breaking all the rules
You mustn't think you failed me just because there's someone else
You were the first real love I ever had,
And all the things I ever said
I swear they still are true
For no one else can have the part of me I gave to you
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool
Loving both of you is breaking all the rules
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool
Loving you both is breaking all the rules
Couldn't really blame you if you turned and walked away
But with everything I feel inside, I'm asking you to stay

Drive my truck midway to the motorway station
Fairlane cruiser coming up on the left hand side
Headlight shining, driving rain on the window frame
Little young Lady Stardust hitching a ride, and it's
2-4-6-8 ain't never too late
Me and my radio truckin' on through the night
3-5-7-9 on a double white line
Motorway sun coming up with the morning light
Whizzkid sitting pretty on your two-wheel stallion
This ol' ten-ton lorry got a bead on you
Ain't no use setting up with a bad companion
Ain't nobody get the better of you-know-who
2-4-6-8 ain't never too late
Me and my radio truckin' on through the night
3-5-7-9 on a double white line
Motorway sun coming up with the morning light
Well there ain't no route you could choose to lose the two of us
Ain't nobody know when you're acting right or wrong
No one knows if a roadway's leading nowhere
Gonna keep on driving home on the road I'm on
2-4-6-8 ain't never too late
Me and my radio truckin' on through the night
3-5-7-9 on a double white line
Motorway sun coming up with the morning light

One by one, they followed the sun
One by one, until there were none
TWO by TWO, to their lovers they flew
TWO by TWO, into the foggy dew
Three by three, they danced on the sea
Four by four, they danced on the shore
Five by five, they tried to survive
Six by six, they were playing with tricks
How many paths did they try and fail?
How many of their brothers and sisters lingered in jail?
How much poison did they inhale?
How many black cats crossed their trail?
Seven by seven, they headed for heaven
Eight by eight, they got to the gate
Nine by nine, they drank the wine
Ten by ten, they drank it again
How many tomorrows have they given away?
How many compared to yesterday?
How many more without any reward?
How many more can they afford?
TWO by TWO, they stepped into the ark
TWO by TWO, they step in the dark
Three by three, they’re turning the key
Four by four, they turn it some more
One by one, they follow the sun
TWO by TWO, to another rendezvous
Three by three, don't tread on me

Kill for gain or shoot to maim
But we don't need a reason
The golden goose is on the loose
And never out of season
Blackened pride still burns inside
This shell of bloody treason
Here's my gun for a barrel of fun
For the love of living death
The killer's breed or the demon's seed
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
Don't you pray for my soul anymore
2 minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom
2 minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb
The blind men shout, "Let the creatures out!
We'll show the unbelievers"
Napalm screams of human flames
For a prime-time Belsen feast, yeah
As the reasons for the carnage cut
Their meat and lick the gravy
We oil the jaws of the war machine
And feed it with our babies
The killer's breed or the demon's seed
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
Don't you pray for my soul anymore
2 minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom
2 minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb
The body bags and little rags
Of children torn in two
And the jellied brains of those who remain
To put the finger right on you
As the mad men play on words
And make us all dance to their song
To the tune of starving millions
To make a better kind of gun
The killer's breed or the demon's seed
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
Don't you pray for my soul anymore
2 minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom
2 minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb
Midnight

"It's in the trees!
It's coming!"
When I was a child:
Running in the night,
Afraid of what might be
Hiding in the dark,
Hiding in the street,
And of what was following me...
Now hounds of love are hunting.
I've always been a coward,
And I don't know what's good for me.
Here I go!
It's coming for me through the trees.
Help me, someone!
Help me, please!
Take my shoes off,
And throw them in the lake,
And I'll be
TWO steps on the water.
I found a fox
Caught by dogs.
He let me take him in my hands.
His little heart,
It beats so fast,
And I'm ashamed of running away
From nothing real--
I just can't deal with this,
But I'm still afraid to be there,
Among your hounds of love,
And feel your arms surround me.
I've always been a coward,
And never know what's good for me.
Oh, here I go!
Don't let me go!
Hold me down!
It's coming for me through the trees.
Help me, darling,
Help me, please!
Take my shoes off
And throw them in the lake,
And I'll be
Two steps on the water.
I don't know what's good for me.
I don't know what's good for me.
I need your love love love love love, yeah!
Your love!
Take your shoes off
And throw them in the lake!
Do you know what I really need?
Do you know what I really need?
I need love love love love love, yeah!

Honey, this is my last chance

Beat on black, beat on white
Beat on everything don't get it right
Beat on you, beat on me, beat on love
I don't know
How to say what's got to be said
I don't know if it's black or white
There's others see it red
I don't get the answers right
I'll leave that to you
Is this love out of fashion
Or is it the time of year
Are these words distraction?
To the words you want to hear
TWO hearts beat as one
TWO hearts beat as one
I try to spit it out
I try to explain
The way I feel
Oh, yeah
TWO hearts
I can't stop the dance
Maybe this is my last chance
I said I can't stop the dance
Maybe this is my last chance
I said don't stop the dance
Maybe this is my last chance
I said I can't stop the dance
Maybe this is our last chance
I said don't stop the dance

I caught you knockin' at my cellar door
I love you, baby, can I have some more?
Ooh, ooh, the damage DONE
I hit the city and I lost my band
I watched the needle take another man
Gone, gone, the damage DONE
I sing the song because I love the man
I know that some of you don't understand
Milk blood to keep from running out
I've seen the needle and the damage DONE
A little part of it in everyone
But every junkie's like a settin' sun

Flowers and wine
Is what I thought I would find
When I came home from workin' tonight.
Well, now here I stand
Over this fryin' pan
And you want a cold one again.
I bought these new heels'
Did my nails, had my hair done just right.
I thought this new dress was a sure bet
For romance tonight.
Well it's perfectly clear
Between the TV and beer
I won't get so much as a kiss.
As I head for the door
I turn around to be sure
Did I shave my legs for this?
Now when we first met
You promised we'd get
A house on the hill with a pool.
Well, this trailer stays wet
And we're swimming in debt.
Now you want me to go back to school.
I bought these new heels
Did my nails, had my hair done just right.
I thought this new dress was a sure bet
For romance tonight.
Well it's perfectly clear
Between the TV and beer
I won't get so much as a kiss.
As I head for the door

Did I shave my legs for this?

Frankie and me we were lovers
Oh Lordy how we could love
Swore we'd be true to each other
Just as true as stars above
I was her man, she caught me doing her wrong
My luck in poker was fading
When a new gal caught my eye
I gambled, I tried to change my luck
With a chick named Nellie Bly
I was Frankie's man but I was doing her wrong
Yeah! Frankie came looking to find me
Yes, she wasn't looking for fun
For in her sweet loving hand
She was totin' a 44 gun
To shoot her man if he was doin' her wrong
Well Frankie walked into the bar room
And right there in front of her eyes
There was her loving johnny
Making love to that Nellie Bly
I was her man, she caught me doing her wrong
Frankie, I beg, please don't shoot me
Well they'll put you away in a cell
You know they'll put your where the cold wind blows
From the hottest corner in hell
I'm your man, I know I done you wrong
Easy on the roll, real easy
Easy on the roll, real slow
Roll me over real gently
'cause my wound hurts me so
Well I was her man
Well I done her wrong
Well Frankie told johnny
Well this is the end of my song
I was her man, well I DONEher wrong
Well , hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

When the day is DONE
Down to Earth then sinks the sun
Along with everything that was lost and won
When the day is DONE
When the day is DONE
Hope so much your race will be all run
Then you find you jumped the gun
Have to go back where you began
When the day is DONE
When the night is cold
Some get by, but some get old
Just to show life's not made of gold
When the night is cold
When the bird has flown
Got no-one to call your own
Got no place to call your home
When the bird has flown
When the game's been fought
You sped the ball across the court
Lost much sooner than you would have thought
Now the game's been fought
When the party's through
Seems so very sad for you
Didn't do the things you meant to do
Now there's no time to start anew
Now the party's through
When the day is DONE
Down to Earth then sinks the sun
Along with everything that was lost and won
When the day is DONE

The jewel, the prize
Looking into your eyes
Cool pools drown your mind
What else will you find
I heard a rumour - it was just a rumour
I heard a rumour - what have you done to her
Myriad lights - they said I'd be impressed
Arabian Knights - at your primitive best
A tourist oasis - reflects in seedy sunshades
A monstrous oil tanker
Its wound bleeding in seas
I heard a rumour - what have you done to her
I heard a rumour - what have you done to her
Veiled behind screens
Kept as your baby machine
Whilst you conquer more orifices
Of boys, goats and things
Ripped out sheeps' eyes - no forks or knives
Myriad lights - they said I'd be impressed
Arabian Knights - at your primitive best

Blindness feeds the war to madness
Faith's crumbling, there's no doubt about it
Religion and science fighting a new kind of war
Helpless, wander the streets in desperation
Fearless, to the path they tread
Shameless, the powers that butcher
Ignorant, to the deeds that they commit
When all is said and done
Heaven lies in my heart
No slave to beliefs that propagate pain
When all is said and done
Heaven lies in our hearts
This life is a gift to be lived and loved
Fracturing the structure of nature
Iconic catalysts to slaughter
A stalemate bursting bound by contradictions
Heartless, divine blueprints of hatred
Selfless, diseased master plans
Shameless, the powers that butcher
Ignorant, to the deeds that they commit
When all is said and done
Heaven lies in my heart
No slave to beliefs that propagate pain
When all is said and done
Heaven lies in our hearts
This life is a gift to be lived and loved, loved
Decoded treachery shielding the tyranny
Black bible tyrants behind masks of righteousness
Relentless, the onslaught of misunderstanding
Descending into a unified chaos, unified chaos (unified chaos)
One more chance for a shot at redemption (shot at redemption)
Lost within, can we summon the might
When all is said and done
Heaven lies in my heart
No slave to beliefs that propagate pain
When all is said and done
Heaven lies in our hearts
This life is a gift to be lived and loved, loved

In this farewell
There's no blood, there's no alibi
'Cause I've drawn regret
From the truth of a thousand lies
So let mercy come and wash away
What I've done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done
Put to rest
What you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands of uncertainty
So let mercy come and wash away
What I've done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done
For what I've done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
I'm forgiving
What I've done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done

So you got the thing you wanted
Don't let it go
Though it hurts your hand to hold it
Don't let it show
I'm pretty done
Once a favored son
I'm pretty done
Slap me 'round for fun
Finding no pleasant changes
In old enemies
Not a lead a bit part playing
In my story
I'm pretty done
Once a favored son
I'm pretty done
Slap me 'round for fun
I don't care to further amuse you
Never had you how, could I lose you?
Paid in full, I owe no one at all
I'm supposed to smile and ignore it
Better than some
High roads are to fall from
Already hung
I'm pretty done
Once a favored son
I'm pretty done
Slap me 'round for fun
Pushing towards hopeless mission
Curiosity, omission
History colored since the fall
I'm pretty done
I'm pretty done
I'm pretty done
I'm pretty done

Going down to her knees
Going down to the devil
Down, down to 90 degrees

Last night, I dug your picture out from my old dresser drawer
I set it on the table and I talked to it 'til four
I read some old love letters right up 'til the break of dawn
Yeah, I've been sittin' alone, diggin' up bones
Then I went through the jewelry and I found our wedding rings
I put mine on my finger and I gave yours a fling
Across this lonely bedroom of our recent broken home
Yeah, tonight, I'm sittin' alone, diggin' up bones
I'm diggin' up bones (diggin' up bones)
I'm diggin' up bones (diggin' up bones)
Exhumin' things that's better left alone
I'm resurrectin' memories of a love that's dead and gone
Yeah, tonight, I'm sittin' alone, diggin' up bones
And I went through the closet and I found some things in there
Like that pretty negligee that I bought you to wear
And I recall how good you looked each time you had it on
Yeah, tonight, I'm sittin' alone, diggin' up bones
I'm diggin' up bones (diggin' up bones)
I'm diggin' up bones (diggin' up bones)
Exhumin' things that's better left alone
I'm resurrectin' memories of a love that's dead and gone
Yeah, tonight, I'm sittin' alone, diggin' up bones
I'm resurrectin' memories of a love that's dead and gone
Yeah, tonight, I'm sittin' alone, diggin' up bones (diggin' up bones)
I'm diggin' up bones (diggin' up bones)
Exhumin' things that's better left alone
I'm resurrectin' memories of a love that's dead and gone
Yeah, tonight, I'm sittin' alone, diggin' up bones (diggin' up bones)
I'm diggin' up bones (diggin' up bones)
Exhumin' things that's better left alone
I'm resurrectin' memories of a love that's dead and gone

And I think that I'm half insane, ma
Look what they've done to my song

Oh, I wish that I could find a good book
Well, if I could find a real good book
I'd never have to come out and look at

Soon the pines will be falling everywhere
Village children always fighting for fair share
And the six-o-nine goes roarin' down the creek
As Parson Lee prepares his service for next week
I saw grandma yesterday down at the store
Well she's really lookin' fine for eighty-four
And she asked me if some time I'd fix the barn
Poor old girl, she needs a man down on the farm
And it's good old country comforts in my BONES
Just the sweetest sound my ears have ever known
Just an old fashioned feeling in my BONES
Country comforts and the road that's going home
Down at the mill they've got a new machine
Foreman says it cuts manpower by fifteen
"Oh, but that ain't natural" old man Grayson says
'cause he's a horse-drawn man until his dying days
And it's good old country comforts in my BONES
Just the sweetest sound my ears have ever known
Just an old fashioned feeling in my BONES
Country comforts and the road that's going home

When you move in right up close to me
That's when I get the shakes all over me
Quivers down my backbone
I got the shakes down my knee BONE
Ye-ah, the tremors in my thigh bone
Shakin' all over
Just the way that you say goodnight to me
Brings that feelin' on inside of me
Quivers down the backbone
I got the shivers down the thigh bone
Ye-ah, the tremors in my back bone
Shakin' all over
Quivers down my backbone
Ye-ah, the shakes in my knee bone
I got the tremors in my thigh bone
Shakin' all over
We-ell, you make me shake and I like it, baby
You make me shake and I like it, baby
Well, shake, shake, shake...
On the day I was born
The nurses all gathered 'round
And they gazed in wide wonder
At the joy they had found
The head nurse spoke up
Said, "Leave this one alone"
She could tell right away
That I was bad to the BONE
Bad to the BONE
Bad to the BONE
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the BONE
I broke a thousand hearts
Before I met you
I'll break a thousand more, baby
Before I am through
I wanna be yours, pretty baby
Yours and yours alone
I'm here to tell ya, honey
That I'm bad to the BONE
Bad to the BONE
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the BONE
I'll make a rich woman beg
And I'll make a good woman steal
I'll make an old woman blush
And I'll make a young girl squeal
I wanna be yours, pretty baby
Yours and yours alone
I'm here to tell ya, honey
That I'm bad to the BONE
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the BONE
Now when I walk the streets
Kings and queens step aside
Every woman I meet
They all stay satisfied
I wanna tell ya, pretty baby
What I see I make my own
And I'm here to tell ya, honey
That I'm bad to the BONE
Bad to the BONE
B-B-B-B-Bad

Every night I grab some money and I go down to the bar
I got my buddies and a beer, I got a dream, I need a car
You got me begging on my knees, c'mon and throw the dog a BONE
A man he doesn't live by rock 'n roll and brew alone
Baby baby
Rock 'n roll and brew, rock 'n roll and brew
They don't mean a thing when I compare 'em next to you
Rock 'n roll and brew, rock 'n roll and brew
I know that you and I we got better things to do
I don't know who you are or what you do
Or where you go when you're not around
I don't know anything about you, baby
But you're everything I'm dreaming of
I don't know who you are, but you're a real dead ringer for love
A real dead ringer for love
Ever since I can remember you been hanging 'round this joint
You been trying to look away but now you finally got the point
I don't have to know your name and I won't tell you what to do
But a girl, she doesn't live by only rock 'n roll and brew
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Rock 'n roll and brew, rock 'n roll and brew
They don't mean a thing when I compare 'em next to you
Rock 'n roll and brew, rock 'n roll and brew
I know that you and I we got better things to do
I don't know who you are or what you do
Or where you go when you're not around
I don't know anything about you, baby
But you're everything I'm dreaming of
I don't know who you are, but you're a real dead ringer for love
A real dead ringer for love
Ooh, you got the kind of legs that do more than walk
I don't have to listen to your whimpering talk
Listen you got the kind of eyes that do more than see
You got a lotta nerve to come on to me
Oh, you got the kind of lips that do more than drink
You got the kind of mind that does less than think
But since I'm feeling kinda lonely, my defenses are low
Why don't you give it a shot and get it ready to go
I'm looking for anonymous and fleeting satisfaction
And I want to tell my daddy I'll be missing in action
Ever since I can remember I've been hanging 'round this joint
My daddy never noticed, now he'll finally get the point
You got me beggin' on my knees, c'mon and throw the dog a bone
A man he doesn't live by rock 'n roll and brew alone
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Rock 'n roll and brew, rock 'n roll and brew
I know that you and I we got better things to do
Rock 'n roll and brew, rock 'n roll and brew
They don't mean a thing when I compare 'em next to you
I don't know who you are or what you do
Or where you go when you're not around
I don't know anything about you baby, but you're everything I'm dreaming of
I don't know who you are, but you're a real dead ringer for love
A real dead ringer for love
Dead ringer for love
Dead ringer for love (dead ringer)
Dead ringer for love (dead ringer)

Somewhere in a lonely hotel room, there's a guy starting to realize
That his eternal fate has turn its back on him, it's 2 a.m.
It's 2 a.m., the fear has gone (the fear has gone)
I'm sittin' here waitin' (I'm sittin' here waitin')
The gun's still warm (the gun's still warm)
Maybe my connection is tired of takin' chances
Yeah, there's a storm on the loose, sirens in my head
Wrapped up in silence, all circuits are dead
Cannot decode, my whole life spins into a frenzy
Help, I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
Place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far?
Soon, you will come to know
When the bullet hits the BONE
Soon, you will come to know
When the bullet hits the BONE
I'm falling down a spiral, destination unknown
Double-crossed messenger, all alone
Can't get no connection, can't get through
Where are you?
Well, the night weighs heavy on his guilty mind
This far from the borderline
When the hit man comes
He knows damn well he has been cheated
And he says
Help, I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
Place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far?
Soon, you will come to know
When the bullet hits the BONE
Soon, you will come to know
When the bullet hits the BONE
When the bullet hits the BONE
Help, I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
Place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far?
Help, I'm steppin' into the twilight zone

My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far?

When the bullet hits the BONE
Soon, you will come to know
When the bullet hits the BONE
When the bullet hits the BONE, ah-ah
When the bullet hits the BONE
When the bullet hits the BONE, ah-ah

You walk into the room
With your pencil in your hand
You see somebody naked
And you, you say, "Who is that man?"
You try so hard
But you don't understand
Just what you will say
When you get home
Because something is happening here
But ya' don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
You raise up your head
And you ask, "Is this where it is?"
And somebody points to you and says
"It's his"
And you say, "What's mine?"
And somebody else says, "Well, what is?"
And you say, "Oh my God, am I here all alone?"
But something is happening here
But ya' don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
You hand in your ticket
And you go watch the geek
Who immediately walks up to you
When he hears you speak
And says, "How does it feel to
Be such a freak?"
And you say, "Impossible"
As he hands you a BONE
]
And something is happening here
But ya' don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
You have many contacts
Among the lumberjacks
To get you facts
When someone attacks your imagination
But nobody has any respect
Anyway they already expect you
To all give a check
To tax-deductible charity organization
Aw, you've been with the professors
And they've all liked your looks
With great lawyers you have
Discussed lepers and crooks
You've been through all of
F. Scott Fitzgerald's books
You are very well read
It's well known
But something is happening here
But ya' don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
Well the sword swallower, he comes up to you
And then he kneels
He crosses himself
And then he clicks his high heels
And without further notice
He asks you how it feels
And he says, "Here is your throat back
Thanks for the loan"
And something is happening here
But ya' don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
Now you see this one-eyed midget
Shouting the word "Now"
And you say, "For what reason?"
And he says, "How?"
And you say, "What does this mean?"
And he screams back "You're a cow
Give me some milk or else go home"
And you know something is happening here
But ya' don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
Well, you walk into the room
Like a camel and then you frown
You put your eyes in your pocket
And your nose on the ground
There oughtta be a law
Against you comin' around
You should be made
To carry at all times a telephone
'Cause something is happening here
But ya' don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and BONES
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong
You load 16 tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded 16 tons of number nine coal
And the straw boss said, "Well, a-bless my soul"
You load 16 tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
Can't no high toned woman make me walk the line
You load 16 tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
If you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta men didn't, a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't get you
Then the left one will
You load 16 tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I got my finger on the trigger
But I don't know who to trust
When I look into your eyes
There's just devils and dust
We're a long, long way from home, Bobbie
Home's a long, long way from us
I feel a dirty wind blowing
Devils and dust
I got God on my side
I'm just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear's a powerful thing
It can turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God filled soul
And fill it with devils and dust
Well I dreamed of you last night
In a field of blood and stone
The blood began to dry
The smell began to rise
Well I dreamed of you last night
In a field of mud and bone
Your blood began to dry
The smell began to rise
We've got God on our side
We're just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear's a powerful thing
It'll turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
Now every woman and every man
They want to take a righteous stand
Find the love that God wills
And the faith that He commands
I've got my finger on the trigger
And tonight faith just ain't enough
When I look inside my heart
There's just devils and dust
I've got God on my side
And I'm just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear's a dangerous thing
It can turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust

MARIE, MICHELLE, NANETTE, NANETTE
I remember your kisses so well.
LOUISE, LUCILE, JEANNETTE, JEANNETTE,
Everyday was a sweet carousel zezelzezelzezel
DENISE, DOREEN, ANNETTE, ANNETTE,
How I thrill with each name I recall
And just to recapture again all those moments when
And I still love you all.

In a bar in Toledo
Across from the depot
On a barstool, she took off her ring
I thought I'd get closer
So I walked on over
I sat down and asked her, her name
When the drinks finally hit her
She said, "I'm no quitter"
But I finally quit living on dreams
I'm hungry for laughter
And here ever after
I'm after whatever the other life brings
In the mirror I saw him
And I closely watched him
I thought how he looked out of place
He came to the woman
Who sat there beside me
He had a strange look on his face
The big hands were calloused
He looked like a mountain
For a minute, I thought I was dead
But he started shakin'
His big heart was breakin'
He turned to the woman and said
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
With four hungry children and a crop in the field
I've had some bad times
Lived through some sad times
But this time your hurtin' won't heal
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille"
After he left us
I ordered more whiskey
I thought how she'd made him look small
From the lights of the barroom
To a rented hotel room
We walked without talkin' at all
She was a beauty
But when she came to me
She must have thought I'd lost my mind
I couldn't hold her
'Cause the words that he told her
Kept comin' back time after time
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
With four hungry children and a crop in the field
I've had some bad times
Lived through some sad times
This time your hurtin' won't heal
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille"
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
With four hungry children a crop in the field
I've had some bad times
Lived through some sad times
But this time your hurtin' won't heal
You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille"
You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille
RHIANNON rings like a bell through the night
And wouldn't you love to love her?
Takes to the sky like a bird in flight
And who will be her lover?
All your life you've never seen a woman taken by the wind
Would you stay if she promised you heaven?
Will you ever win?
She is like a cat in the dark
And then she is the darkness
She rules her life like a fine skylark
And when the sky is starless
All your life you've never seen a woman taken by the wind
Would you stay if she promised you heaven?
Will you ever win?
Will you ever win?

WENDY, Wendy, what went wrong?
Oh, so wrong
We went together for so long
I never thought a guy could cry
'Til you made it with another guy
Oh Wendy, Wendy left me alone
Hurt so bad
Wendy, Wendy, don't lose your head
Lose your head
Wendy, don't believe a word he says
I can't picture you with him
His future looks awful dim
Oh Wendy, Wendy left me alone
Hurt so bad
Wendy, I wouldn't hurt you like that
No, no, no
I thought we had our love down pat
Guess I was wrong
The farthest thing from my mind
Was the day that I'd wake up to find
My Wendy
Wendy left me alone
Wendy, Wendy left me alone
Hurts so bad
Wendy, Wendy left me alone
Hurts so bad
Wendy, Wendy left me alone
Hurts so bad
Wendy, Wendy
Oh I had such a crush on Wendy when I was 16. This song has stayed with me for over 55 years.

Beth, I hear you calling
But I can't come home right now
Me and the boys are playing
And we just can't find the sound
Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them calling
Oh Beth, what can I do?
Beth, what can I do?
You say you feel so empty
That our house just ain't a home
That I'm always somewhere else
And you're always there alone
Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them calling
Oh Beth, what can I do?
Beth, what can I do?
Beth, I know you're lonely
And I hope you'll be alright
'Cause me and the boys will be playing all night

… Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mambo Number Five
… One, two, three, four, five
Everybody in the car, so come on, let's ride
To the liquor store around the corner
The boys say they want some gin and juice
But I really don't wanna
Beer-bust like I had last week
I must stay deep because talk is cheap
… I like ANGELA, PAMELA, SANDRA and RITA
And as I continue, you know they getting sweeter (uh)
So what can I do? I really beg you, my Lord
To me is flirting is just like a sport
Anything fly, it's all good, let me dump it
Please set in the trumpet
… A little bit of MONICA in my life
A little bit of ERICA by my side
A little bit of RITA's all I need
A little bit of TINA's what I see
A little bit of SANDRA in the sun
A little bit of MARY all night long
A little bit of JESSICA, here I am
A little bit of you makes me your man (ah)
… Mambo Number Five (ah)
… Jump up and down and move it all around
Shake your head to the sound
Put your hand on the ground
Take one step left and one step right
One to the front and one to the side
Clap your hand once and clap your hands twice
And if it looks like this then you're doing it right
… A little bit of Monica in my life
A little bit of Erica by my side
A little bit of Rita's all I need
A little bit of Tina's what I see
A little bit of Sandra in the sun
A little bit of Mary all night long
A little bit of Jessica, here I am
A little bit of you makes me your man (ah)
… Trumpet, the trumpet
Mambo Number Five, hahaha
… A little bit of Monica in my life
A little bit of Erica by my side
A little bit of Rita's all I need
A little bit of Tina's what I see
A little bit of Sandra in the sun
A little bit of Mary all night long
A little bit of Jessica, here I am
A little bit of you makes me your man (huh)
… I do all to fall in love with a girl like you
'Cause you can't run and you can't hide
You and me gonna touch the sky
… Mambo Number Five (ah)

The Lord and I've been friends for a mighty long time
Ooh hoo, BELLE
Leaving Him has never ever really crossed my mind
Let me say just one thing
I'd never go so far, mmm
'Cause it's Him no matter who you are, oh hoo
BELLE
Oh, it's you that I want, but it's Him that I need
I'd like to take a little minute just to say now
BELLE
The laughter of the sound has quieted down
Ooh hoo, mmm, BELLE
The best thing we could do is have Him around
Now. I'm not playing, little lady, let me say this one thing
I think if love could abound
My heart was lost but now it's found
Ooh hoo, BELLE
Oh, let's you and I let His love come down
I'm so happy, happy about that now, say this
Seems so easy to me
To try to act naturally
Let's not waste each other's time, time, ooh hoo
BELLE
He's my surprise and, Lord, he's my joy
My joy, not a toy
BELLE
I know that you can understand
A little country boy
Just a little country boy
Hey, He brought me safe thus far
Let me say it, little lady
Through many drunken country bars
Ooh hoo, BELLE, oh, let me say
He's my bright morning star
BELLE, BELLE
My bright in the morning
He's my bright in the morning, He's
He's my everything, my everything
Hey, a drink of water
(BELLE, BELLE)
BELLE
He's my joy in the morning time
(BELLE, BELLE)
BELLE
I know you're all of these things, yeah
But, uh, He's such a brighter joy, He's such a brighter
He's, He's, He's
(Little, little, little lady, BELLE)
(Jesus is my)

Little, little, little BELLE
(My everything)
My everything
(Everything)
Everything
In the morning
(Time, time)
In the evening
(Time, time)
In the daytime
In the nighttime
(Little lady)
Hey! Hey!
He's my everything, yeah! He's
BELLA

I loved you since I knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you

Told you once I won't tell you again

Wake up, MAGGIE, I think I got somethin' to say to you
It's late September and I really should be back at school
I know I keep you amused, but I feel I'm being used
Oh, MAGGIE, I couldn't have tried any more
You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that's what really hurts
The mornin' sun when it's in your face really shows your age
But that don't worry me none, in my eyes, you're everything
I laughed at all of your jokes, my love, you didn't need to coax
Oh, MAGGIE, I couldn't have tried any more
You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul, and that's a pain I can do without
All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
But you turned into a lover, and mother, what a lover, you wore me out
All you did was wreck my bed, and in the morning, kick me in the head
Oh, MAGGIE, I couldn't have tried any more
You led me away from home
'Cause you didn't wanna be alone
You stole my heart, I couldn't leave you if I tried
I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playin' pool
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helpin' hand
Oh, MAGGIE, I wished I'd never seen your face
You made a first-class fool out of me
But I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my heart, but I love you anyway
MAGGIE, I wished I'd never seen your face
I'll get on back home one of these days
Ooh, ooh, ooh

I remember all my life
Raining down as cold as ice
Shadows of a man
A face through a window
Crying in the night
The night goes into
Morning, just another day
Happy people pass my way
Looking in their eyes
I see a memory
I never realized
How happy you made me
Oh, MANDY
Well, you came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away
Oh, Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today
Oh, Mandy
I'm standing on the edge of time
I've walked away when love was mine
Caught up in a world of uphill climbing
The tears are in my mind
And nothing is rhyming
Oh, Mandy
Well, you came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away
Oh, Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today
Oh, Mandy
Yesterday's a dream
I face the morning
Crying on a breeze
The pain is calling
Oh, Mandy
Well, you came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away
Oh, Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today
Oh, Mandy
You came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away
Oh, Mandy
You kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you
As I got on a city bus and found my vacant seat
I thought I saw my future bride walking up the street
I shouted to the driver, "Hey, conductor, you must slow down
I think I see her, please, let me off the bus"
Nadine, honey, is that you?
Oh, Nadine, honey, is that you?
Seems like every time I see you
Darling, you got something else to do
I saw her from the corner when she turned and doubled back
And started walkin' toward a coffee-colored Cadillac
I was pushin' through the crowd trying to get to where she's at
And I was campaign-shouting like a southern diplomat
Nadine, honey, is that you?
Oh, Nadine, honey, where are you?
Seems like every time I catch you
But you're up to something new
Downtown searching for her, looking all around
Saw her getting in a yellow cab heading uptown
I caught a loaded taxi, paid up everybody's tab
Flip the twenty dollar bill and told him catch that yellow cab
Nadine, honey, is that you?
Oh, Nadine, honey, is that you?
Seems like every time I catch you
You're up to something new
She moved around like a wayward summer breeze
Go, driver, go, go on, catch her for me, please
Moving through the traffic like a mounted cavalier
Leaning out the taxi window trying to make her hear
Nadine, honey, is that you?
Oh, Nadine, honey, is that you?
Seems like every time I see you, darling
You're up to something new
Access to her code
Lovestruck was my mode
Took a look, dropped my textbook
Jenifa (Oh)
Breakfast, broke it fast
She was in my English class
Asked for notes, rocked my boat
Jenifa (Oh)
Jenny
Lost her favorite penny
So I gave her a dollar
She kissed me (And I hollered)
In a flash, the school bell rang
Jenny grabbed onto my hand
Took me home and said
"Trugoy, just swing and swing and swang"
The downstairs, where we met
I brought records, she cassettes
Lost the break, found her shape
Jenifa, oh Jenny
Transcripts showed more than flirt
"I Love Daisies" read her shirt
Grabbed my jeans, Jimmy screamed
Jenifa, oh Jenny
Marvelous, shaped like a vase
No one can live their life for Pos
Found a house, aroused my joust
Jenifa, oh Jenny
Her clothes, I did shuck
Just like Dan, I strictly stuck
To the punt, she cried, "Kick it!"
Posdnuos was in
Jenny
Only thought about Jimmy
But asked was I a virgin
Like some kid named Derwin
She said, "Let's try it in the bathroom"
But 'Dnuos is way above sinks
So to the kitchen she did Dan
And came back wrapped in Saran
Now wait a minute!
Little Derwin got something to show us that Jenny could never do
Listen
Hey, look at little Derwin! Look at him go! Look at him go!
Aw, baby
Positions, muscles flexed
Dove was lost in a gon-a-hex
Passed her test, felt her teddy
Jenifa, oh Jenny
Notions soothed the mood
Dove was lost in De La Heaven
Screwed Plug Two, did the do
Jenifa, oh Jenny
Jenny
Teased my homeboy Granny
In fact she teased so many
She was known as a garden tool
No more, I dispatched
Was it Jimmy had met his match?
Or could it be the realization
All girls owned a Jenny?
For normal health, I had fought
A valuable lesson she had taught
Don't flaunt that the candy is good
Unless you came with plenty
Deboree-deb n' deboree-de-bree-deb
Deboree-deb n' deboree-de-bree-deb
Deboree-deb n' deboree-de-bree-deb
Deboree-deb n' deboree-de-bree-deb
Oh Deborah, always look like a zebra
Your sunken face is like a galleon
Clawed with mysteries of the Spanish Main, oh Deborah...
Deboree-deb n' deboree-de-bree-deb
Li-di-di-di-di-di-di
Deboree-deb n' deboree-deboree-deb
Li-di-di-di-di-di-di
Ni-ni-ni-ni-ni-ni-ni
Deboree-deb n' deboree-de-bree-deb
Deboree-deb n' deboree-de-bree-deb
Oh Deborah, always dress like a conjuror
It's fine to see your young face hiding
'Neath the stallion that I'm riding, Debora...
(Ex tempore)
Dug a re dug ...
(Ex tempore)
Debora
Dug a re dug n dug a re dug etc
Oh Deborah, you look like a stallion
Oh Deborah, you look like a stallion
Your sunken face is like a galleon
Clawed with mysteries of the Spanish Main
Oh Deborah
Babe, tomorrow's so far away
There's something I just have to say
I don't think I could hide what I'm feelin' inside
Another day, knowin' I love you
And I, I'm getting too close again
I don't wanna see it end
If I tell you tonight, would you turn out the lights
And walk away knowin' I love you?
I'm gonna take you by surprise
And make you realize, Amanda
I'm gonna tell you right away
I can't wait another day, Amanda
I'm gonna say it like a man
And make you understand, Amanda
I love you
And I feel like today's the day
I'm looking for the words to say
Do you wanna be free, are you ready for me
To feel this way?
I don't wanna lose ya
So, it may be too soon, I know
The feeling takes so long to grow
If I tell you today, will you turn me away
And let me go?
I don't wanna lose you
I'm gonna take you by surprise
And make you realize, Amanda
I'm gonna tell you right away
I can't wait another day, Amanda
I'm gonna say it like a man
And make you understand, Amanda
Oh, girl
You and I
I know that we can't wait
And I swear, I swear it's not a lie, girl
Tomorrow may be too late
You, you and I, girl
We can share a life together
It's now or never
And tomorrow may be too late
Oh-ooh-oh-ooh-oh
And feelin' the way I do
I don't wanna wait my whole life through
To say I'm in love with you
What'll you do when you get lonely
And nobody's waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride
you've got me on my knees
(LAYLA) I'm begging, darling, please
(LAYLA) darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
I tried to give you consolation
When your old man had let you down
Like a fool, I fell in love with you
You turned my whole world upside down
you've got me on my knees
(LAYLA) I'm begging, darling, please
(LAYLA) darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
Let's make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane
Please, don't say we'll never find a way
And tell me all my love's in vain
you've got me on my knees
(LAYLA) I'm begging, darling, please
(LAYLA) darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
LAYLA (LAYLA) you've got me on my knees
(LAYLA) I'm begging, darling, please
(LAYLA) darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
