In My Car

Joe Walsh, Richard Starkey, Mo Foster and Kim Goody

Doesn't make a diff'rence,
Don't care how far.
We can go the distance in my car.

Don't bother with directions,
Doesn't matter where we are.
Cruisin' down the highway in my car.

Hey!
In my car.

I don't need no back seat drivers,
So I leave them all behind.
And problems, they can't find me in my car.

In my car.
Hey!
In my car.
(in my car)
(in my car)
(in my car)
(my car)

Hopeless

Joe Walsh and Richard Starkey

When I woke up this morning,
Much to my surprise,
The sun was going down
And I was still alive.

I looked into the mirror
And according to my eyes,
The martians have invaded,
It's hopeless.

I went to see my doctor
To ask him what to do
Depending on the diagnosis.

I said, "Doc, I'm seeing double,
And how are both of you?"
No cause for alarm, it's hopeless.

You don't stand a chance, it's hopeless.
Ev'rybody dance!

Well, there's paradise and doomsday,
It depends on which comes first.
There's inner peace through meditation.

There's optimists and pessimists,
I don't know which is worse,
But the yogi mow mow, but the yogi mow mow,
It's hopeless.

The solution has been dissolved,
The crisis has been resolved.
There's no need to change your plans,
It's a hopeless situation.

For tomorrow is another day,
And ev'rything will be okay.
And by the way, it's hopeless.
(hopeless)

Alibi

Joe Walsh and Richard Starkey

You came into my life
When I was looking for an alibi.
You looked in my eyes
And I could tell you no lie.
I was making life, feel all right,
But it wasn't good.
Lookin' at you, lookin' at me,
I knew you'd understood.

I've been down for so long,
Looking for a good disguise.
Feelin' sorry for myself,
I didn't realise.
That I was digging holes,
Acting roles
With no lines to say.
I was losing sleep, counting sheep
That never went away.

I was waitin' for you to come into my life,
Making up stories or looking for an alibi.

Now we're together,
It's gonna be never
We'll be parted again.
I've loved you since the day we met
And that was way back when
I was making life, feel all right
In the same old way. (same old way)

I'm digging holes,
Acting roles
With no lines to say

I was waitin' for you to come into my life,
Making up stories, looking for an alibi.

Looking for an alibi.

Ooh, looking for an alibi.

(scat sing)

Oh, making those alibis.

(scat sing)

Oh, looking for an alibi.

(scat sing)

Going Down

Joe Walsh and Richard Starkey

I'm going down,
I'm going down.
I'm going down.

I'm coming up,
I'm coming up.
I'm coming up.

I'm moving on, (moving on)
I'm moving on. (moving on)
(well, we're moving on) moving on.
