Powerful song lyrics

thynes1313

When the day is long and the night
The night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough
Of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go
'Cause everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go (hold on)
When you think you've had too much
Of this life, well hang on

'Cause everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don't throw your hand
Oh, no
Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone
No, no, no, you are not alone

REM - EVERYBODY HURTS

Gumbo John
Tony Joe White

Gumbo John was a swamper
He had a small cafe
A little ol' shack just outside of Baton Rouge
Everybody around said you had it made
If you were looking for the right kind of food

You just kick back and let the evening come
Out on the back porch at Gumbo John's

Sharp Dressed Man
ZZ Top

Clean shirt, new shoes
And I don't know where I am goin' to
Silk suit, black tie,
I don't need a reason why
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
Gold watch, diamond ring,
I ain't missin' not a single thing
Cufflinks, stick pin,
When I step out I'm gonna do you in
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
Top coat, top hat,
And I don't worry 'cause my wallet's fat
Black shades, white gloves,
Lookin' sharp lookin' for love
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man

You talk too much, you talk too much
I can't believe the things that you say
Everyday
If you keep on talking baby
You know you're bound to drive me away
Now you get on the telephone with your girlfriend
Your conversation baby ain't got no end
Yakety-yakety-yakety-yak all the time
You keep on talking baby drive me out of my mind
You talk too much
I can't believe the things that you say
Everyday

If you keep on talking baby
You know you're bound to drive me away
Well I laid out in the afternoon
I start to nappin'
You walk into the room with them jaws a-flappin'
You keep that motormouth moving morning, noon and night
You keep on talking baby make my head turn white
You talk too much
I can't believe the things that you say
Everyday
If you keep on talking baby
You know you're bound just to drive me away
I think you're trying to put me through some kind of test
I'm begging you baby won't you give it a rest
You talk about people that you don't even know
Keep it up baby I'm gonna pick up and blow
You talk too much
I can't believe the things that you say
Everyday

If you keep on talking baby You know you're bound to drive me away Don't get me wrong baby I don't mean to complain, But if you keep on talking you're gonna drive me insane You keep on talking all around the clock, I'm begging you baby won't you please stop You talk too much, I can't believe the things that you say everyday If you keep on talking baby You know you're bound to drive me away Yes if you keep on talking, baby You know you're bound just to drive me away Yes Uh huh Yes dear Yes I'm listening Oh I heard every word you said, honey Yes Yes dear Oh I agree you're right Yes, you're always right Yes, dear Uh huh Yeah I, I, I think I heard I heard you Shut up Songwriters: George Thorogood[/img]

What you gonna do with all that junk?
All that junk inside your trunk?
I'm a get, get, get, get you drunk,
Get you love drunk off my hump.
What you gonna do with all that *kitten*?
All that *kitten* inside that jeans?
I'm a make, make, make, make you scream,
Make you scream, make you scream
'Cause of my humps, my hump, my hump, my hump
My lovely lady lumps
In the back and in the front
My hump, my hump, my hump

Saturday night I was down town
Working for the F.B.I.
Sitting in a nest of bad men
Whiskey bottles piling high
Boot legging boozer on the west side
Full of people who are doing wrong
Just about to call up the D.A. man
When I heard this woman singing a song.
A pair of forty fives made me open my eyes
My temperature started to rise
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a five nine
Beautiful
Tall
With just one look I was a bad mess
Cause that long cool woman had it all.
Saw her heading to the table
Well a tall walking big black cat
When Charlie said "I hope that you're able
Boy"
Well
I'm telling you she knows where it's at
Well suddenly we heard a siren
And every body started to run
A jumping out of doors and tables
Well I heard somebody shooting a gun.
Well the D.A. was pumping my left hand
And a she a holding my right
And I told her don't get scared
Cause you're gonna be spared
I gotta be forgiven
If I want to spend my living with
A long cool woman in a black dress
Just a five nine
Beautiful
Tall
With just one look I was a bad mess
'Cause that long cool woman had it all
Had it all
Had it all
Had it all

She's No Lady
Lyle Lovett

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o3m1FwhusY[/url]

She hates my mama
She hates my daddy too
She loves to tell me
She hates the things I do
She loves to lie beside me
Almost every night
She's no lady she's my wife
The preacher asked her
And she said I do
The preacher asked me
And she said yes he does too
And the preacher said
I pronounce you 99 to life
Son she's no lady she's your wife
And I can't remember
How I met her
Seems like she's always just been hanging here off my right arm
And I can't remember
How I ever
Thought that I just couldn't live without a woman's charm
And even though
She loves the smell of French perfume
And even though
She walks around in high-heel shoes
All I know
Is I'm the one who pays her price
Man she's no lady she's my wife
And I can't remember
How I met her
Seems like she's always just been hanging here off my right arm
And I can't remember
How I ever
Thought that I just couldn't live without a woman's charm
Yea she hates my mama
She hates my daddy too
She loves to tell me
She hates the things I do
She loves to lie beside me
Almost every night
She's no lady she's my wife

Do Ya

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G04rvBgNojo[/url]



Do you still get a thrill when ya see me comin' up the hill?
Honey, now do ya?
Do ya whisper my name just to bring a little comfort to ya?
Do ya?
Do ya still like the feel of my body lyin' next to ya?
Well, I guess what I'm askin'
Do you still love me?
Oh, do you lie awake thinkin' I'm the biggest mistake you ever made?
Honey, now do ya?
And if just by snappin' your fingers
You could snap them fingers and make it all go away.
Honey, now would ya?
Do ya miss me when I'm gone
But sometimes wish that I'd stay gone just a little bit longer?
Well, I guess what I'm askin'
Is do you still love me?
'Cause honey, I sure do still love you.
At least I think I do.
And these questions I'm askin'
You could ask them of me too.
Do ya still get a thrill when ya see me comin' up the hill
Honey, now do ya?
Oh, do ya?
Do ya whisper my name just to bring a little comfort to ya?
Do ya?
Do you still like the feel of my body lyin' next to ya?
Whoa-oa-oa yeah
Well I guess what I'm askin'
Is do you still love me?
Yes, I guess what I'm askin'
Is do ya still love me, do ya?
Do ya?
Oh, do ya?
Tell me, do ya?

Ode to Billie Joe
Bobbie Gentry

It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day
I was out choppin' cotton, and my brother was balin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat
And mama hollered out the back door, y'all, remember to wipe your feet
And then she said, I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge
Today, Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge
And papa said to mama, as he passed around the blackeyed peas
Well, Billy Joe never had a lick of sense; pass the biscuits, please
There's five more acres in the lower forty I've got to plow
And mama said it was shame about Billy Joe, anyhow
Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on Choctaw Ridge
And now Billy Joe MacAllister's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge
And brother said he recollected when he, and Tom, and Billie Joe
Put a frog down my back at the Carroll County picture show
And wasn't I talkin' to him after church last Sunday night?
I'll have another piece-a apple pie; you know, it don't seem right
I saw him at the sawmill yesterday on Choctaw Ridge
And now ya tell me Billie Joe's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge
And mama said to me, child, what's happened to your appetite?
I've been cookin' all morning, and you haven't touched a single bite
That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today
Said he'd be pleased to have dinner on Sunday, oh, by the way
He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge
And she and Billy Joe was throwing somethin' off the Tallahatchie Bridge
A year has come and gone since we heard the news 'bout Billy Joe
And brother married Becky Thompson; they bought a store in Tupelo
There was a virus going 'round; papa caught it, and he died last spring
And now mama doesn't seem to want to do much of anything
And me, I spend a lot of time pickin' flowers up on Choctaw Ridge
And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie Bridge

That's The Way Love Goes
Merle Haggard


I've been throwing horseshoes
Over my left shoulder
I've spent most all my life
Searching for that four-leafed clover
Yet you ran with me
Chasing my rainbows
Honey, I love you, too
And that's the way love goes
That's the way love goes, babe
That's the music God made
For all the world to sing
It's never old, it grows
Losing makes me sorry
You say, "honey, now, don't worry"
Don't you know I love you too?
And that's the way love goes
That's the way love goes, babe
That's the music god made
For all the world to sing
It's never old, it grows
Losing makes me sorry
You say, "honey, don't worry"
Don't you know I love you too?
And that's the way love goes, oh

Simple
Florida Georgia Line

It's as simple as can be

We used to live on Instagram
Worry 'bout who all gives a damn
'Bout where we've been and where we ended up
Then I met you and you met me
And all the rest is history an epiphany
That all we need is us

Only Prettier
Miranda

Well I've been saved by the grace of southern charm
I got a mouth like a sailor and yours is more like a Hallmark card
If you wanna pick a fight well I'm gonna have to say goodnight
I don't have to be hateful, I can just say bless your heart
And even though I don't belong with your high life friends
Doesn't mean we don't get together and try to make amends
It's easier can't you see lets agree to just disagree
We don't have to like each other but its sure fun to pretend
So lets shake hands and reach across those party lines
You got your friends just like I got mine
We might think a little differently
But we got a lot in common you will see
We're just like you, only prettier
Everybody says you gotta know your enemies
Even if they only weigh a hundred pounds and stand five foot three
If you just smile and behave you could always get your way
It's a universal plan that'll get you where you can in all societies
So lets shake hands and reach across those party lines
You got your friends just like I got mine
We might think a little differently
But we got a lot in common you will see
We're just like you, only prettier
Lets shake hands and reach across those party lines
You got your friends just like I got mine
We might think a little differently
But we got a lot in common you will see
We're just like you, only prettier
Well I'll keep drinkin' and you'll keep gettin' skinnier
Hey I'm just like you only prettier
She says just like you only prettier

All Jacked UP


One thing I've learned when you get tore up
Don't start no stuff when you're all jacked up
One thing I've learned when you get tore up
Don't drive your car
Don't start no stuff in no bar
Hell I wouldn't tell anybody where you are
When you're all jacked up

Creepin'
Eric Church

Like a honybee beatin' on my screen door,
I got a little buzz and my head is sore,
And from the my bed I can feel the sun,
Lord I hear the mornin' come.
Justa creepin'
Creepin', creepin', creepin'.
Shot outta hell like a bullet from a gun,
A flip of a switch,
A thief on the run,
Since the day you left me baby,
I can feel the lonely,
I can hear the crazy.
Justa creepin'
Creepin'
Justa creepin'
Creepin'
Head for the future,
Run from the past,
Hide from the mirror,
And live in a glass,
What dreams forget the whiskey remembers,
Kinda like molasses in a late December.
Justa creepin'
Creepin'
Oh, creepin'
Your cocaine kiss and caffeine love,
Run under my skin and into my blood,
That need you back comes over me,
Like ivy crawlin' up a hickory tree.
Justa creepin'
Creepin'
Justa creepin' creepin'
Creepin'
Head to the future,
Run from the past,
Hide from the mirror,
And live in a glass,
What dreams forget the whiskey remembers,
Kinda like molasses in a late December.
Justa creepin'
Creepin'
Ah, come on!
Break it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
Just last night I saw the light,
At the end of that tunnel on the other side,
Thought I found my way outta this pain,
Only too find your memory train.
Creepin', creepin', creepin', creepin'
Creepin', creepin', creepin', creepin'
Yeah creepin,
Creepin'
Yeah creepin'
Creepin'
