Night comes in, like some cool river
How can there be, be another day? Take my hand, oh real companion And we'll dance, dance till we fade away Oh, the songs pour down like silver They can only, only break my heart Drink the wine, the wine of lovers Lovers tired of being apart Dancing till my feet don't touch the ground I lose my mind in dance forever Lose my mind in dance forever Turn my world around Turn my world around Oh, this night is like no other And this room is ringing in my ears And these friends will never leave me And these tears are like no other tears Dancing till my feet don't touch the ground I lose my mind in dance forever Lose my mind in dance forever Turn my world around Turn my world around ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By RICHARD THOMPSON <i>Lyrics © BUG MUSIC</i> |

Little boy running and the little girl too Got the money tucked up in their hands Over the wall and down into the street Give your money to the hollering man Give your money to the hollering man Everybody runs for Hokey Pokey Hear the ringing on the ice-cream bell He's got the stuff that'll cool you right down It's the best that they ever did sell It's the best that they ever did sell Girl on the corner with the tight dress on You know she don't know nothing so fine Feels so good when you put it in your mouth Sends a shiver all down your spine Sends a shiver all down your spine Cat got your tongue, says Frankie to Annie, girl You haven't said a word all night Well, Annie she smiled and she took another bite Hokey Pokey made her feel all right, all right Hokey Pokey made her feel all right Well, some like it round, and some like it flat And some like a poke or two But everybody runs for Hokey Pokey It's the natural thing to do It's the natural thing to do Down in prison number 999 Working like a bee in a hive He's still dreaming of Hokey Pokey Helps to keep that boy alive Helps to keep that boy alive Boss man he says to the choir-boy Rocky Don't you sing to the boys in blue Or you won't get no more Hokey Pokey By the time we're through with you By the time we're through with you Fellas in the alley all look like girls With the lipstick and the high-heeled shoes Feel so pretty and the boys all say That they know just what to do That they know just what to do |

I hand you my ball and chain
You just hand me that same old refrain I'm walking on a wire, I'm walking on a wire And I'm falling I wish I could please you tonight But my medicine just won't come right I'm walking on a wire, I'm walking on a wire And I'm falling Too many steps to take Too many spells to break Too many nights awake And no one else This grindstone's wearing me Your claws are tearing me Don't use me endlessly It's too long, too long to myself Where's the justice and where's the sense? When all the pain is on my side of the fence I'm walking on a wire, I'm walking on a wire And I'm falling Too many steps to take Too many spells to break Too many nights awake And no one else This grindstone's wearing me Your claws are tearing me Don't use me endlessly It's too long, it's too long to myself It scares you when you don't know Whichever way the wind might blow I'm walking on a wire, I'm walking on a wire And I'm falling I'm walking on a wire, I'm walking on a wire And I'm falling I'm walking on a wire, I'm walking on a wire And I'm falling ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By RICHARD THOMPSON <i>Lyrics © BUG MUSIC</i> |

I packed my rags, went down the hill Left my dependents a-lying still Just as the dawn was rising up I was making good speed I left a letter lying on the bed From a man in need, it read You know it's so hard, It's so hard to find Well, well, well. Who's going to cure the heart of a man in need? All of my friends don't comprehend me Their kind of style it just offends me I want to take 'em, I want to shake 'em 'Till they pay me some heed Oh, you've got to ride in one direction Until you find the right connection You know it's so hard, So, so, so, so Well, well. Who's going to cure the heart of a man in need? Who's going to give you real happiness? Who's going to give you contentedness? Who's going to lead you? Who's going to feed you? And cut you free? Well I've sailed every ship in the sea But I travelled this world in misery You know it's so hard, So hard, so hard Well, well. Who's going to cure the heart of a man in need? Well who's going to shoe your feet? Ah who's going to pay your rent? And who's going to stand by you? Well, well, well, well Who's going to cure the heart of a man in need? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Of a man in need |

Those backstreet women, watch what you say
You turn your back and they slide away They run next door, they give it all away Doing the slide The backstreet slide, the backstreet slide They're gonna get you, dead or alive Stab you in the back with a kitchen knife Doing the backstreet slide Do it all day, the backstreet slide Gatemouth woman leaning on the fence She's got no teeth, she's got no sense You don't need much intelligence Doing the slide The backstreet slide, the backstreet slide They're gonna get you, dead or alive Stab you in the back with a kitchen knife Doing the backstreet slide Do it all day, the backstreet slide Slide over here, slide over there Spreading that scandal everywhere Stab you in the back and they just don't care Doing the slide Now slander is a loving tongue They speak your name to everyone Never is a curse left unsung Doing the slide The backstreet slide, the backstreet slide They're gonna get you, dead or alive Stab you in the back with a kitchen knife Doing the backstreet slide Do it all day, the backstreet slide The backstreet slide, the backstreet slide They're gonna get you, dead or alive Stab you in the back with a kitchen knife Doing the backstreet slide Do it all day, the backstreet slide ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By THOMPSON <i>Lyrics © BUG MUSIC</i> |

O who will remember, o who will be sure
And still feel the silence as close as before And was there a season without any rain, And never, o never, o never again? The time for dividing and no-one will speak Of the sadness of hiding, and the softness of sleep O will there be nothing of peace till the end, Or never, o never, o never again? Old man how you tarry, old man how you weep The trinkets you carry and the garlands you keep For the salt tears of lovers and the whispers of friends Come never, o never, o never again ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By GONSCHOREK, DANIEL / SCHUBERT, HARALD / LINDNER, VOLKER / THOMPSON, JOSEPH / DALIEN, MICHAEL <i>Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc., BUG MUSIC</i> |

This cruel country has driven me down Teased me and lied, teased me and lied I've only sad stories to tell to this town My dreams have withered and died Once I was bending the tops of the trees Kind words in my ear, kind faces to see Then I struck up with a boy from the west Played run and hide, played run and hide Count one to ten and he's gone with the rest My dreams have withered and died Silver moon sail up and silver moon shine On the waters so wide, waters so wide Steal from the bed of some good friend of mine My dreams are withered and died If I was a butterfly, live for a day I could be free, just blowing away This cruel country has driven me down Teased me and lied, teased me and lied I've only sad stories to tell to this town My dreams have withered and died |

I feel for you, you little horror
Safe at your mother's breast No lucky break for you around the corner 'Cause your father is a bully And he thinks that you're a pest And your sister she's no better than a whore. Life seems so rosy in the cradle, But I'll be a friend I'll tell you what's in store There's nothing at the end of the rainbow. There's nothing to grow up for anymore Tycoons and barrow boys will rob you And throw you on the side And all because they love themselves sincerely And the man holds a bread knife Up to you throat is four feet wide And he's anxious just to show you what it's for. Your mother works so hard to make you happy But take a look outside the nursery door There's nothing at the end of the rainbow. There's nothing to grow up for anymore And all the sad and empty faces That pass you on the street All running in their sleep, all in a dream Every loving handshake Is just another man to beat How your heart aches just to cut him to the core Life seems so rosy in the cradle, But I'll be a friend I'll tell you what's in store There's nothing at the end of the rainbow. There's nothing to grow up for anymore |

High up above the crowd The great Valerio is walking The rope seems hung from cloud to cloud And time stands still while he is walking His eye is steady on the target His foot is sure upon the rope Alone and peaceful as a mountain And certain as the mountain slope We falter at the sight We stumble in the mire Fools who think they see the light Prepare to balance on the wire But we learn to watch together, And feed on what we see above Till our hearts turn like the seasons And we are acrobats of love How we wonder, how we wonder Watching far below We would all be that great hero The great Valerio Come all you upstart jugglers Are you really ready yet? Who will help the tightrope walker When he tumbles to the net So come with me to see Valerio As he dances through the air I'm your friend until you use me And then be sure I won't be there How we wonder, how we wonder Watching far below We would all be that great hero The great Valerio |
