lyrics and pieces of lyrics by drew Roberts October 08 ---------- I am sixteen years old And I've never been kissed By a sweet girl like you Right up to this Very moment in time And I think that I've missed A whole lot of good times And moments of bliss But how will I know Unless you haul off and kiss Me right now So kiss me right now And don't miss Yes kiss me right now And don't miss ---------- Come on baby Let's go somewhere I'll lay you down You take me there oh yeah Just love me like You used to do When all our dreams Were fresh and new uh huh ---------- I said the blues walked in this morning Slapped me right upside my head Oh yeah the blues walked in this morning Slapped me right upside my head Say now boy What you think you doing? Come on get up, get out of bed ---------- Well I had one hit in my heart Two hits in my brain Three hits in my fingers Untold numbers in my veins ---------- Jubilation Exploitation Expectations from a man who's come to town Say he's a big star And his meter bars Are always pegged way beyond the edge of red And his decibels and his Jezebels Raise the roof When he spreads his dough around ---------- It was a day just like today That she upped and went away After telling me our love was dead and gone And after years of suffering I opened up and let you in And the sky shone brightly As the morning sun ---------- She could love me if she tried But all she wants to do is hide And run away from all the love I've stored up deep inside This heart she keeps on breaking This fool she keeps on making ---------- Oh she's a sweet thing She gives me everything That I need And more besides Oh she's a sweet thing She gives me everything That I want And more besides ---------- We were hanging in Burillo On a country Friday night We were way out in the groves Dancing to the fire light ---------- Goin, goin, gone Sister sister I am Goin, goin, gone Goin, goin, gone Sister sister I am Goin, goin, gone I had a long rope And I was nearing the end But I've done cut loose So baby let's not pretend Cause I ain't handing In this town no more Yes I done cut loose This ain't like before Cause I'm Goin, goin, gone Sister sister I am Goin, goin, gone ---------- She's a high speed (/tone?) woman In a low cut dress She treats me better than all the rest She's amazing She drives me crazy She gives me all her loving and she does it right She shakes me in the morning turns me on at night She's amazing She drives me crazy ---------- I don't mind and I don't care Cause you took me to the water And you burned me down to here Then you took me to the mountain And you took me to the stream And you did a little dance And you made a young man dream Yes you made a young man dream oh yeah No I don't mind what you got here for me But baby you're the only one I see ---------- (In case anyone is confused, nothing in the following song is real.) Well now Jimmy and Warren Buffet Took a pipe and they did stuff it Then they puffed and puffed and puffed it Once again Jim said hey here hold my kite And if you're careful you just might Get to like it Cause it really wants to ride upon the wind Then they went long on tequila And run short on margaritas But they both agreed It was the best they'd been Yes they went long on tequila And run short on margaritas And the sea salt made them thirsty Once again ---------- What's good for the goose Is good for the gander Listen baby I'll take a stand and Give you something that another man Won't give I'll take you places and show you things And we'll fly away on diamond wings Yes we'll live the life that money Cannot give ---------- I'm just a rock star Stuck in a jazz bar Not getting too far And my heart is fading fast Bought me an old car From my tip jar And baby so far It all seems built to last ---------- Love lies bleeding underwater Sharks are circling and I oughta Take a chance But I been burned too many times before ---------- Let your fingers do the walking Down my spine, down my spine Let your whispers do the walking Through my mind all the time ---------- You been roaming On the wrong side of town Some bad boy Gonna lay you down Looking up From underground It's your last call boy Won't be another round Put your money up On the bar my friend It's the last call hey Let's not pretend You been roaming On the wrong side of town Some bad boy now Done put you down ---------- Now is the season of my discontent Now is the season of my discontent Now is the season of my discontent Now is the season of my discontent Cause I Don't love you any more No I Don't love you any more Cause you Have stayed just like before Yes you Just took that open door ---------- She said love falls From a blue sky To the lonely Yellow ground She said the grey hills Would slowly fade away And that mean wind Would soon call my name But I said No way! I ain't buying. And I said No how! Mrs. Brown Cause I don't aim To lie here dying On this love stained Yellow ground. ---------- She promised halfway to the stars But she dropped me off at Mars Now I been drinking in these dives Just barely trying to stay alive ---------- There's a woman in the road outside Five foot tall and six foot wide See her coming boy you better hide Cause if she takes you to her double wide She'll take you for a little southern ride Life would be better if you done died So listen boy you better run and hide Hide yourself away ---------- She'll take you halfway To where you want to be Then she'll leave you stranded Boy just you wait and see She'll take your heart Leave it hanging from a tree You won't know what hit you Son take it from me ---------- Wake Up Dead She spread some toe jam On some roachy bread She said now big boy You goin wake up dead If you mess roun Wit my heart again Now I een jokin An dis een pretend How your poor ma could live wit her disgrace An how your old pa Could even show his face I look at her An I suck my teeth I say now woman I does need relief From your achin An da gas you see I need some strong back And some sarasee Some five fingers An some love vine tea Your sorry ways Goin be da end of me ---------- He was a good boy Who acted bad Trying to impress girls He never had He never saw me Watch him with eyes That cried with tears when He said goodbye ---------- Possibly for Island To Island by Simon Lau Another Island and another Woman and my sailboat Sailing and the breeze is Blowing And I need some time To get you off of my mind Cause the sun is shining And the water's fine Well I speared a grouper And I dove some conch Come night I mashed de roach In a honky-tonk Yes that old red rooster He was really jumping And the gals was wine-ing And my heart was thumping Another Island and another Woman and my sailboat Sailing and the breeze is Blowing And I need some time To get you off of my mind Cause the sun is shining And the water's fine ---------- Possibly for Island To Island by Simon Lau Lyrics modded Jun 30/09 Another Island and another Woman and my sailboat Sailing and the breeze is Blowing I need some time To get you off of my mind Cause the sun is shining And the water's fine I speared a grouper And I dove some conch Come night I mashed de roach In a honky-tonk That old red rooster He was really jumping Gals dem wine-ing My pressure rising (This next bit Jul 11/09) I met a woman Down in Matthew Town She smiled at me and Turned my up to down Then she laughed and Turned my left to right Smiled again and Filled my dreams that night (This next bit Jul 13/09) Well I sailed on into Spanish Wells Sat in the Snack Bar With the cookin smells Saw a blue eyed beauty Lookin at me I asked her name She said no not till three (This next bit Aug 22/09) Cruised into Andros when the Crabs was crawling This dark and lovely gal Was really hauling She looked so good she caused My heart to stop Gave me some strong back Not a soda pop Went down to Salt Pond at Regatta time This Cartwright gal she had a Shape for wine I take a sip and my poor Head start swinging I dive right in and start Her bell to ringing nana Another Island and another Give me something to smoke With this rum and coke ---------- Another Island And Another Woman Another Island and another Woman and my sailboat Sailing and the breeze is Blowing I need some time To get you off of my mind Cause the sun is shining And the water's fine I speared a grouper And I dove some conch Come night I mashed de roach In a honky-tonk That old red rooster He was really jumping Gals dem wine-ing My pressure rising Another Island and another ...
