Joe Walsh - Life's Been Good



I have a mansion forget the price Ain't never been there they tell me it's nice I live in hotels tear out the walls I have accountants pay for it all

They say I'm crazy but I have a good time I'm just looking for clues at the scene of the crime Life's been good to me so far

My Maserati does 185 I lost my license now I don't drive I have a limo ride in the back I lock the doors in case I'm attacked

I'm making records my fans they can't wait They write me letters tell me I'm great [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/lifes-been-good-lyrics-joe-walsh.html ] So I got me an office gold records on the wall Just leave a message maybe I'll call

Lucky I'm sane after all I've been through Everybody says I'm cool (He's cool) I can't complain but sometimes I still do Life's been good to me so far

I go to parties sometimes until four It's hard to leave when you can't find the door It's tough to handle this fortune and fame Everybody's so different I haven't changed

They say I'm lazy but it takes all my time Everybody says Oh yeah (Oh yeah) I keep on going guess I'll never know why Life's been good to me so far

David Essex - Rock On


Hey kid, rock and roll Rock on, ooh, my soul Hey kid, boogey too, did ya

Hey shout, summertime blues Jump up and down in my blue suede shoes Hey kid, rock and roll, rock on

And where do we go from here Which is the way that's clear

Still looking for that blue jean, baby queen Prettiest girl I ever seen See her shake on the movie screen, Jimmy Dean (James Dean)

[Instrumental Interlude]

And where do we go from here Which is the way that's clear

Still looking for that blue jean, baby queen Prettiest girl I ever seen See her shake on the movie screen, Jimmy Dean Jimmy Dean Rock on Rock on Rock on

Hey, hey Rock and roll Rock on

Rock on Hey, hey Rock and roll Rock on

Rock on Hey, hey Rock and roll Rock on

Rock on Hey, hey Rock and roll Rock on........

“Crazy Dreams” - Carrie Underwood

Hello you long shots
You dark horse runners
Hairbrush singers, dashboard drummers
Hello you wild magnolias
Just waiting to bloom

There’s a little bit of all that inside of me and you
Thank God even crazy dreams come true

I stood at the bottom of some walls I thought I couldn’t climb
I felt like Cinderella at the ball just running out of time
So I know how it feels to be afraid
Think that it’s all gonna slip away
Hold on, hold on

Here’s to you free souls, you firefly chasers
Tree climbers, porch swingers, air guitar players
Here’s to you fearless dancers, shaking walls in your bedrooms

There’s a lot of wonder left inside of me and you
Thank God even crazy dreams come true

Never let a bad day be enough
To go and talk you in to giving up
Sometimes everybody feels like you
Oh, feels like you, just like you
Yeah

I’ve met some go-getters
Some difference makers
Small town heroes, and big chance takers
I’ve met some young hearts with something to prove
Oh, yeah

Here’s to you long shots
You dark horse runners
Hairbrush singers, and dashboard drummers
Here’s to you wild magnolias
Just waiting to bloom

There’s a little bit of all that inside of me and you
Thank God even crazy dreams come true
Thank God even crazy dreams come true
Yeah

“Hope you get some rain soon, Dust.”

:-) But then Dust would have to change names to Mud... aka, “my name is Mud”...

“Our Song” - Taylor Swift

I was riding shotgun
With my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
He’s got a one-hand feel
On the steering wheel
The other on my heart
I look around, turn the radio down
He says, “Baby is something wrong?”
I say, “Nothing,
I was just thinking
How we don’t have a song”
And he says...

[Chorus:]
Our song is the slamming screen door,
Sneakin’ out late, tapping on your window
When we’re on the phone and you talk real slow
‘cause it’s late and your mama don’t know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date: “Man, I didn’t kiss her, and I should have”
And when I got home ... ‘fore I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again

I was walking up
The front porch steps
After everything that day
Had gone all wrong
And been trampled on
And lost and thrown away
Got to the hallway,
Well on my way
To my lovin’ bed
I almost didn’t notice
All the roses
And the note that said...

[Chorus:]
Our song is the slamming screen door,
Sneakin’ out late, tapping on your window
When we’re on the phone and you talk real slow
‘cause it’s late and your mama don’t know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date: “Man, I didn’t kiss her, and I should have”
And when I got home ... ‘fore I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again

I’ve heard every album, listened to the radio
Waited for something to come along
That was as good as our song...

[Chorus:]
‘Cause our song is the slamming screen door,
Sneakin’ out late, tapping on his window
When we’re on the phone and he talks real slow
‘cause it’s late and his mama don’t know
Our song is the way he laughs
The first date: “Man, I didn’t kiss him, and I should have”
And when I got home ... ‘fore I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again
Play it again

I was riding shotgun
With my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
I grabbed a pen
And an old napkin
And I wrote down our song

Drift Off to Dream - Travis Tritt

I sit here surrounded by people and lights
Alone with my drink at the bar
You’ve been here forever, so clear in my mind
I just don’t know where you are
I know I’ll find you but girl ‘til I do
This is my love song for you

Let’s hold hands on the porch swing, under the moon
While the wind through the willows plays us a tune
We can lie on a blanket, out back in the yard
And wish for our future on a faraway star
You’ll feel the passion as time after time
I press your sweet lips to mine
Then we’ll dance to the radio, right up ‘til dawn
‘Til you drift off to dream in my arms

You might be hundreds or more miles away
Or you might be just down the street
But there’ll be a hunger deep in your eyes
That I’ll recognize when we meet
It might take hours or it might take years
But this is the song you will hear

Let’s hold hands on the porch swing, under the moon
While the wind through the willows plays us a tune
We can lie on a blanket, out back in the yard
And wish for our future on a faraway star
You’ll feel the passion as time after time
I press your sweet lips to mine
Then we’ll dance to the radio, right up ‘til dawn
‘Til you drift off to dream in my arms

“Fireflies And Songs” - Sara Groves

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2asUyUvqpE

Thirty years ago I was a little girl
riding in the back seat of the car
a woman sang you don’t bring me flowers anymore
I felt a sadness in my little heart

we’re looking for the music
in the music box
tearing it to pieces
trying to find a song

I was drawn to you in ways I can’t explain
we fought like crazy but I couldn’t stay away
piled on expectations and lots of blame
like we couldn’t do it any other way

we’re looking for a firefly
moving through the night
staring at the one place
swear it never lights

were you surprised our hearts were not like ticking clocks
with faces and hands easy to read
we both wished if only in the land of oz
longed for things we’d never really need

now we’re standing in the kitchen
all pretense is gone
you kiss me on the shoulder
fireflies and song
