Wine and Women
Wine and women and song will only make me sad
Love and kisses and hugs , the things I never had
If this should end , I don't mind
If this should end , I will find
What shall I do (what shall I do )
What shall I do (what shall I do )
Cars and buses and trams make alot of noise
All my women have gone out with other boys
If this should end , I don't mind
If this should end, I will find
I won't complain (I won't complain)
I feel no pain (I feel no pain )
(break)
Ooh..
If this should end , I don't mind
If this should end , I will find
I won't complain (I won't complain)
I feel no pain (I feel no pain )
Wine and women and song will only make me sad
Love and kisses and hugs the thing I never had
If this should end , I don't mind
If this should end, I will find
I won't complain (I won't complain)
I feel no pain ( I feel no pain)
I won't complain .. cry
Ooh....
You get your pleasures out of hurting me , honey
You get your kicks out of watching me cry
You play around an awful lot to hurt me , honey
Why do you laugh when there are tears in my eyes
I don't think it's funny , honey
My days are not so sunny
Why don't you make up your mind
Let me put my arms around you
Make rainbows all around you
But I don't know if you are mine
If I was yours and you were mine , my little honey
We could be happy till the very day I die
But all you ever want to do is hurt me , honey
Why do you laugh when there are tears in my eyes
I don't think it's funny , honey
My days are not so sunny
Why don't you make up your mind
Let me put my arms around you
Make rainbows all around you
But I don't know if you are mine
(break)
I don't think it's funny , honey
My days are not so sunny
Why don't you make up your mind
Let me put my arms around you
Make rainbows all around you
But I don't know if you are mine
But I don't know if you are mine
But I don't know if you are mine
I'm the sun , I'm the falling rain
I'm the kind of man you can't explain
True love is one thing I've been dreaming of
I give my love to you . And when I do
you are to me, the very deepest part of me
I am the world
I am the sky
I am the sea
I'm anything that you want me to be
When you hurt me , then I become the night time
The shadows in my eyes don't make it good for
me to see the way I should
I am the world
I am the sky
I am the sea
I'm anything that you want me to be
I'm the sun , I'm the falling rain
I'm the kind of man that you can't explain
I am the world
I am the world
The Battle of the Blue and the Grey
Now it's gone ,gone , gone
Those years have passed away
It's gone , gone , gone
There's truth in what I say
It's gone , gone , gone
There's nothing more to say
But I'd do anything if I could do it all again
Well, I'm an old man now and I'm born to win the race
People won't believe me but there's truth in what I say
Many hearts were broken and a lot of tears were shed
The sky was black and the battlefield was red
Now it's gone , gone , gone
Those years have passed away
It's gone , gone , gone
There's truth in what I say
It's gone , gone , gone
There's nothing more to sa
But I'd do anything if I could do it all again
Now ,Stonewall Jackson stepped right up and then he said to me
He said "The battle's gettin' rough son, guess we better flee.
There's grapeshot all around us and the field is black with lead.
You better start a-runnin' boy before you lose your head " .
It's gone , gone , gone
Those years have passed away
It's gone , gone , gone
There's truth in what I say
It's gone , gone , gone
There's nothing more to say
But I'd do anything if I could do it all again
Well, the cannons roared around us and the field was black with lead
I picked a soldier dressed in blue and filled him full of lead
I picked out six more soldiers there a-sittin' on a mound
I fixed my bayonet to my gun and really mowed them down
Now, it's gone , gone , gone
Those years have passed away
It's gone , gone , gone
There's truth in what I say
It's gone , gone , gone
There's nothing more to say
But I'd do anything if I could do it all again
But I'd do anything if I could do it all again
Ooh. love was true yesterday
I love you ev'ry way
I saw you standing there
You gave me cause to stare
And then I knew , I had to have you
You could be mine if you tried
All that you do is tell me lies
You think that love's a game
But I don't feel the same
I should have known that I'll get the pain
Ooh, love was true yesterday
I love you ev'ry way
I saw you standing there
You gave me cause to stare
And then knew I had to have you
Ah......
Well, I been working up a fever trying to
straighten up the mess in my mind about this place
I can't contain myself anymore
Can't you see it's written all over my face
Why don't you get on your feet
It's about time you got to think
what ever happened to peace
Well open your eyes and you'll see children laughing,
voices singin' ,hearts a-beatin' ah.....
Your always talkin' right and talkin about
the world and it's corruption and moral decay
But what you gonna do about it , nothing ,
'cause you're more like children then children while they play
Why you're so clean through and through you won't shake hands
with a negro who's maybe cleaner then you
Well listen around and you'll hear children laughin' ,
voices singin' , hearts a-beatin' like they always do
So what's wrong with you , ah...
You're so blown up with anger about the world
You write the songs about
Yet you don't even know your neighbors name
Now you want to go the the moon and live there
when you know it'll only end up the same
How can he give you any gratitude,
with your endless sickenin' attitude
You strive to get ahead
but you leave each other dead
Can't you see , children laughin' ,
voices singin' , hearts beatin' like they always do
So what's wrong with you , ah...
Children laughin' , voices singin' hearts beatin'
Children laughin' , voices singin , (fade)

I Was A Lover , A Leader Of Man
Ah, ah, ah, ah ..
I was a lover , a leader of me
All of the women I knew were my friends
I was so happy ,my feet on the ground
I didn't know I was on the way down
'cause you don't feel the same
It's only a game , it's only a game , it's only a game
Ah, ah , ah , ah ..
I had a billion or two in the bank
I gave to charity , ain't got no thanks
You gave me all that a woman could give
Less you're affection , I don't want to live
'cause you don't feel the same
It's only a game , it's only a game , it's only a game
(break)

Some may find peace of mind lovin' a girl like you
But I can say , in your way , you only make me blue
Some may say , you don't play , you have a heart that's true
But can they believe what you say
You only make me blue
You hurt me and you fool around
You don't even give me a chance
Well it's over and I'm telling you
It's the end of our romance
Some may find peace of mind lovin' a girl like you
But I can say , in your way , you only make me blue
Ah.....
(break)
You hurt me and you fool around
You don't even give me a chance
Well it's over and I'm telling you
It's the end of our romance
Some may find peace of mind lovin' a girl like you
But I can say in your way , you only make me blue
Ah.....
