GYPSIES
TRAMPS AND THIEVES
-
I
was born in the wagon of a travelling show
-
My
momma used to dance for the money they'd throw
-
Poppa
would do whatever he could
-
Preach
a little gospel
-
Sell
a couple bottles of doctor good
-
CHORUS
-
Gypsies
tramps and thieves
-
We'd
hear it from the people of the town
-
They'd
call us
-
Gypsies
tramps and thieves
-
But
every night all the men would come around
-
And
lay their money down
-
Picked
up a boy just south of Mobile
-
Gave
him a ride filled him with a hot meal I was sixteen he was twenty one.
Rode with us to Memphis
-
And
poppa woulda shot him if he knew what he'd done
-
CHORUS
-
Never
had schooling but he taught me well
-
With
his smooth southern style
-
Three
months later I'm a gal in trouble
-
And
I haven't seen him for a while
-
Uh
huh I haven't seen him for a while uh huh
-
She
was born in the wagon of a travelling show
-
Her
momma had to dance for the money they'd throw
-
Grandpa'd
do whatever he could
-
Preach
a little gospel
-
Sell
a couple bottles of doctor good
-
CHORUS
REPEAT TO FADE

DARK
LADY
-
The
fortune queen of New Orleans,
-
Was
brushing her cat in her black limousine
-
On
the backseat were scratches from
-
The
marks of men her fortune she had won
-
Couldn't
see through the tinted glass,
-
She
said "Home James" and he hit the gas
-
I
Followed her to some darkened room,
-
She
took my money, she said "I'll be with you soon"
-
CHORUS:
-
Dark
Lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one
-
Danced
to her gypsy music till her brew was done
-
Dark
Lady played back magic till the clock struck on the twelve
-
She
told me more about me than I knew myself
-
She
dealt two cards, a queen and a three
-
And
mumbled some words that were so strange to me
-
Then
she turned up a two-eyed jack,
-
My
eyes saw red but the card still stayed black
-
She
said the man you love is secretly true
-
To
someone else who is very close to you
-
My
advice is that you leave this place,
-
Never
come back and forget you ever saw my face
-
CHORUS
-
So
I ran home and crawled in my bed,
-
I
couldn't sleep because of all the things she said
-
Then
I remembered her strange perfume,
-
And
how I smelled it was in my own room!
-
So
I sneaked back and caught her with my man,
-
Laughing
and kissing till they saw the gun in my hand
-
The
next thing I knew they were dead on the floor,
-
Dark
Lady would never turn a card up anymore
-
CHORUS
-
-
-
-
HALF-BREED
-
My
father married a pure Cherokee
-
My
mother's people were ashamed of me
-
The
indians said I was white by law
-
The
White Man always called me "Indian Squaw"
-
CHORUS:
-
Half-breed,
that's all I ever heard
-
Half-breed,
how I learned to hate the word
-
Half-breed,
she's no good they warned
-
Both
sides were against me since the day I was born
-
We
never settled, went from town to town
-
When
you're not welcome you don't hang around
-
The
other children always laughed at me
-
"Give
her a feather, she's a Cherokee"
-
Repeat
Chorus
-
We
weren't accepted and I felt ashamed
-
Nineteen
I left them, tell me who's to blame
-
My
life since then has been from man to man
-
But
it can't run away from what I am
-
Repeat
chorus
-

DON’T
HIDE YOUR LOVE
-
You
never give yourself completely
-
It's
just that you've been hurt before
-
You're
so afraid to let me love you
-
You
never leave an open door
-
Don't
judge me by some other lover
-
Who
broke your heart and walked away
-
Come
lets be fair with one another
-
My
world is yours I swear it
-
Say
the word and we can share it
-
CHORUS:
-
Don't
hide your love (don't hide your love)
-
Not
if you care for me (not if you care for me)
-
It
isn't fair for me
-
To
worry and wonder and wait
-
Don't
hide your love (don't hide your love)
-
Just
love me here and now (just love me here and now)
-
We'll
work it out somehow
-
Don't
you keep us apart
-
Baby,
unlock your heart
-
Don't
hide your love
-
Well
I know the past has brought you sorrow
-
The
clouds still hang around today
-
But
don't let the rain fall on tomorrow
-
Baby,
we can make it together
-
'Cause
I'm gonna love you forever
-
(CHORUS,
repeat and fade)

FIRE
AND RAIN
-
Just
yesterday mornin' they let me know you were gone
-
Suzanne
the plans they made put an end to you
-
I
walked out this mornin' and I wrote down this song
-
I
just can't remember who to send it to
-
Refrain:
-
I've
seen fire and I've seen rain
-
I've
seen sunny days that I thought would never end
-
I've
seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
-
but
I always thought that I'd see you again
-
Won't
you look down upon me
-
Jesus,
you've gotta help me make a stand
-
You
just got to see me through another day
-
My
body's aching and my time is at hand
-
I
won't make it any other way.
-
Repeat
Refrain
-
I've
been walking my mind to an easy time
-
my
back turned toward the sun
-
Lord
knows when the cold wind blows
-
it'll
turn your head around
-
Well
there's hours of time on the telephone line
-
to
talk about things to come
-
Sweet
dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground
-
Repeat
Refrain
-
-
-
HE
AIN'T HEAVY... HE'S MY BROTHER
-
The
road is long, with many a winding turn
-
That
leads us to who knows where, who knows where
-
But
I'm strong, strong enough to carry him
-
He
ain't heavy - he's my brother
-
So
on we go, his welfare is my concern
-
No
burden is he to bare, we'll get there
-
For
I know he would not encumber me
-
He
ain't heavy - he's my brother
-
If
I'm laden at all, I'm laden with sadness
-
That
everyone's heart isn't filled with gladness of love for one another
-
It's
a long long road from which there is no return
-
While
we're on our way to there, why not share
-
And
the load, it doesn't weigh me down at all
-
He
ain't heavy - he's my brother
-
He
ain't heavy - he's my brother, he's my brother, he's my brother
-
-
LIVING
IN A HOUSE DIVIDED
-
Look
at us the picture of happiness
-
Not
so long ago, Ah, not so very long ago
-
The
price of all our friends
-
The
perfect couple were we
-
Is
this how it will end?
-
Just
a sad sad story.
-
CHORUS:
-
Living
in a house divided
-
With
a love that's so onesided
-
There's
no chance at all
-
T
he walls have got to fall
-
Tumbling
down
-
Look
at us the King and Queen of emptiness
-
Living
inside our castle of loneliness
-
Unable
to make amends
-
Such
perfect strangers are we
-
Is
this how it will end?
-
Just
a sad story.
-
Repeat
chorus
-
-
HOW
CAN YOU MEND A BROKEN HEART
-
I
can think of younger days when living for my life
-
Was
everything a man could want to do.
-
I
could never see tomorrow, but I was never told about the sorrow.
-
And
how can you mend a broken heart?
-
How
can you stop the rain from falling down?
-
How
can you stop the sun from shining?
-
What
makes the world go round?
-
How
can you mend a this broken man?
-
How
can a loser ever win?
-
Please
help me mend my broken heart and let me live again.
-
I
can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees
-
And
misty memories do days gone by
-
We
could never see tomorrow, noone said a word about the sorrow.
-
And
how can you mend a broken heart?
-
How
can you stop the rain from falling down?
-
How
can you stop the sun from shining?
-
What
makes the world go round?
-
How
can you mend this broken man?
-
How
can a loser ever win?
-
Please
help me mend my broken heart and let me live again.

BOYS
AND GIRLS
-
(chorus)
Boys, go and shine up your shoes. Girls, run and powder your nose.
'Cause tonight you'll be shakin'.
From your head down to your toes.
Well feeling your cool is as good as lookin' it.
Thinkin' you're cool is as good as knowin' it.
Playin' it cool is as good as blowin' it.
You know you can't spend a dollar if you ain't got a dime.
You can't hook a fish if you ain't got a line.
You won't catch the bus if you're not there on time.
So go read up your books and sharpen your hooks.
Then all you need is money.
And a mouth full of honey.
And if you play your cards right,
After dancin' all night.
You won't have to walk home alone
You won't have to walk home alone.
Boys, you can hang loose and slip up real cool.
But if your lady has a love noose,
She might never let you go.
And if you think maybe you're too young,
And you just can't cope,
Just grab a razor sharp pair of cutting shears
and cut a hole right in the rope.
Snip a hole right in the rope
(chorus)
Well if you wake up tomorrow morning.
Can't remember what you did.
Just ring up some of your friends.A
And they'll tell you just how low you slid.
Oh don't be ashamed of anything you hear.
After all you can't be blamed when you're drinking so much beer.
Hey, don't worry that what you did just wasn't right.
Just remember, brothers and sisters,
After everyday's another night.
After everyday's another night.
(chorus)

Seems like heaven
So much in heaven

Lying here next to me

Ooooh, will you let me forever
With you I'll be walking
Right out that door
(Right out that door)
One night with you
Lying here next to me
It's the right thing to do
It would be ecstasy
I'm in heaven
Seems like heaven
So much in heaven
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home
Wanna feel you close to me

With you is where I wanna be
Wrapped in your arms tonight

You'd be lying next to me
Baby it'd be ecstasy
Ooh, can't you see I want you near me
Baby, let's get outta here

(I wanna get next to you)
