The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!

When I were a lad I were so glad to go out in the daytime
With me fork, and a bottle and a cork to help out in the haytime
While tossin' hay upon the mound met young Lucy Bailey
And I said my dear Are you often here, she said Yes sir, twice daily
We had such fun in the summer sun, Lucy were so thrillin'
Sweet and pure but I wern't sure that young maid were willin'
Till one day among the hay we was working gaily
She up's and slips and zomut rips and I went there twice daily
(Oh Ah Oh I did too)
She said dear I do feel queer think I outa tellee
Tant new bread she sadly said that swelling up me belly
Told her go to Doctor Joe off she went so gaily
He gave a dollop of a gert thick jollop and said take this twice daily
( Orriable stuff twer )
Now Lucy's dad wer very mad, chased I 'round the haymound
Said my son you've had your fun, the time has come to pay now
My girl you'll wed, the old man said as he waved his shotgun gaily
If you don't, he says, I'll put the lead and you won't go there twice daily
(Ow painful that )
Well the very next day in the month of May held the ceremony
Paid off the vicar with a gallon of liquor, rode to church on a pony
And the village folks from miles around waved and shouted gaily
There's no doubt you'll get found out if you goes there twice daily
( They were right too (I did)
Now to Lucy's joy she had a boy, what a little darlin'
Round and fat as a Cheshire cat, perky as a starlin'
Skin were smooth as a cider jar and they called him Buster Bailey
Fed him on sweeds and charlotte weeds and a pint of scrump twice daily
( Fat little bleeder too)
Now we'me old, our story's told, forty years together
And we often stray where we tossed the hay in that old time summer weather
Kids we've got full ten or more, we goes on quiet gaily
Tho' I'm old and grey when I've got me way I still go there twice daily

Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book?
It took me years to write, will you take a look?
It's based on a novel by a man named Lear
And I need a job, so I want to be a paperback writer
Paperback writer

And his clinging wife doesn't understand
His son is working for the DAILY Mail
It's a steady job but he wants to be a paperback writer

It must be Monday! What a dumb day!
Can't drag my butt outta bed
Somebody stop me
I need another coffee
Like a hole in my head
When everyday begins this way
Gets you down and can drive you mad
The DAILY grind can freak your mind
But life isn't all that bad
[Chorus]
Don't let it get to you
C'est la vie! That's life
And that's how it's gonna be
C'est la vie! Hold tight
It comes right eventually
Oh ho
If only I could sleep in
And wake up on the weekend
Oh, what a dream that would be, yeah
But fat chance for that one
It ain't gonna happen
Better get back to reality
I could be a slob or keep my job
That is the choice we have
The daily grind can freak your mind
But life isn't all that bad
[Chorus]
Everybody's got to do it!
Everybody's got to earn their way
Uh, come on now
You gotta work your own way through it
Everybody's got their dues to pay
Yeah
The daily grind can freak your mind
But life isn't all that bad
[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah
C'est la vie! That's life
And that's how it's gonna be
Uh, come on now
C'est la vie! Hold tight
It comes right eventually
Oh ho

Stuck inside these four walls
Sent inside forever
Never seeing no one nice again
Like you, mama
You, mama
You
If I ever get out of here
Thought of giving it all away
To a registered charity
All I need is a pint a day
If I ever get out of here

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash
As we fell into the sun
And the first one said to the second one there
"I hope you're having fun."
BAND on the run, band on the run
And the jailer man
And sailor Sam
Were searching everyone
For the band on the run, band on the run
For the band on the run, band on the run
Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh
Seeing no one else had come
And a bell was ringing in the village square
For the rabbits on the run
Band on the run, band on the run
And the jailer man
And sailor Sam
Were searching everyone
For the band on the run, band on the run
Yeah, the band on the run
The band on the run
Band on the run
Band on the run
Well, the night was falling
As the desert world began to settle down
In the town they're searching for us everywhere
But we never will be found
Band on the run, band on the run
And the county judge, who held a grudge
Will search for ever more
For the band on the run
Band on the run
Band on the run

I'm just a wandering on the face of this earth
Meeting so many people
Who are trying to be free
And while I'm traveling I hear so many words
Language barriers broken
Now we've found the key
And if you want the wind of change
To blow about you
And you're the only other person to know, don't tell me
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.
A thousand pictures can be drawn from one word
Only who is the artist
We got to agree
A thousand miles can lead so many ways
Just to know who is driving
What a help it would be
So if you want this world of yours
To turn about you
And you can see exactly what to do
Please tell me
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.
How can we understand
Riots by the people for the people
Who are only destroying themselves
And when you see a frightened
Person who is frightened by the
People who are scorching this earth.
I'm just a wandering on the face of this earth

Meeting so many people bridging the seas
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.
We're just the singers in a rock and roll band.

On the road again
Just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again
On the road again
Goin' places that I've never been
Seein' things that I may never see again
And I can't wait to get on the road again
On the road again
Like a band of gypsies, we go down the highway
We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world keep turnin' our way, and our way
Is on the road again
I just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again
On the road again
Like a band of gypsies, we go down the highway
We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world keep turnin' our way, and our way
Is on the road again
Just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again
And I can't wait to get on the road again

There are times when a woman has to say what's on her mind
Even though she knows how much it's gonna hurt
Before I say another word, let me tell you "I love you"
Let me hold you close, and say these words as gently as I can
"There's been another man that I've needed, and I've loved
But that doesn't mean I love you less
And he knows he can't possess me, and he knows he never will
There's just this empty place inside of me that only he can fill"
Torn between TWO lovers, feeling like a fool
Loving both of you is breaking all the rules
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool
Loving you both is breaking all the rules
You mustn't think you failed me just because there's someone else
You were the first real love I ever had
And all the things I ever said, I swear they still are true
For no one else can have the part of me I gave to you
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool
Loving both of you is breaking all the rules
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool
Loving you both is breaking all the rules
I couldn't really blame you if you turned and walked away
But with everything I feel inside, I'm asking you to stay
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool
Loving both of you is breaking all the rules
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool
Loving you both is breaking all the rules

In a bulletproof vest, shatterproof glass, overdrive we're gonna pass

A man decides after seventy years
That what he goes there for, is to unlock the door
While all those around him criticize and sleep
And through a fractal on a breaking wall
I see you, my friend, and touch your face again
Miracles will happen as we dream
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy
See yellow people walking through my head
One of them's got a gun to shoot the other one
And yet together, they were friends at school
Oh, get it, get it, get it, get it, no, no, no
If I were there when we first took the pill
Then maybe, then maybe, then maybe, then maybe
Miracles will happen as we speak
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy
In a sky full of people, only some want to fly
Isn't that crazy?
In a world full of people, only some want to fly
Isn't that crazy, crazy?
In a Heaven of people, there's only some want to fly
Isn't that crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy?
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy

She's got a T-Top Camaro with a scoop on the hood
And two big speakers blasting Johnny B. Goode
Looking so sweet it oughta be a crime
She plays with my heart and messes with my mind
Acts like Madonna but she listens to Merle
Rock my world little country girl
She wears snakeskin boots made by Calvin Klein
And cheap sunglasses from the five and dime
All the other girls in school they give her dirty looks
She got an "A" in math and never cracked a book
Sure looks good in her denim and pearls
Rock my world little country girl
Rock my world
Drag me out on the floor
Dance with me 'till I can't dance anymore
One-step, two-step, get in a line
I gotta find a way to make you mine
Rock my world!
I tell her that I love her but it ain't enough
She says I got to learn to loosen up
Get a little wild on Saturday night
But make sure she's home before the mornin' light
Sunday she's all ribbons and curls
Rock my world little country girl
Rock my world
Drag me out on the floor
Dance with me 'till I can't dance anymore
One-step, two-step, get in a line
I gotta find a way to make you mine
Rock my world little country girl
Rock my world little country girl
Rock my world little country girl

I don't know if it's black or white
There's others see it red
I don't get the answers right
I'll leave that to you
Is this love out of fashion
Or is it the time of year
Are these words distraction?
To the words you want to hear
TWO hearts beat as one
TWO hearts beat as one
I try to spit it out
I try to explain
The way I feel
Oh, yeah

"I Dig a Pygmy" by Charles Hawtrey and the Deaf Aids
Phase one, in which Doris gets her oats
Two of us riding nowhere
Spending someone's hard-earned pay
You and me Sunday driving
Not arriving on our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home
Two of us sending postcards
Writing letters on my wall
You and me burning matches
Lifting latches on our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home
You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead
Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo in the sun
You and me chasing paper
Getting nowhere on our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home
You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead
Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo in the sun
You and me chasing paper
Getting nowhere on our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home
We're going home
Better believe it
Goodbye

I see the crystal raindrops fall
And the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through
To make those rainbows in my mind
When I think of you sometime
And I wanna spend some time with you
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I
We look for love, no time for tears
Wasted water's all that is
And it don't make no flowers grow
Good things might come to those who wait
Not for those who wait too late
We gotta go for all we know
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building them castles in the sky

On the window down the hall
And it becomes the morning dew
And darling when the morning comes
And I see the morning sun
I wanna be the one with you
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building big castles way up high

One is the loneliest number, whoa-oh, worse than two
It's just no good anymore since you went away
Now, I spend my time just making rhymes of yesterday
One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
One is the loneliest
One is the loneliest
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
It's just no good anymore since you went away
(number)
One is the loneliest (number)
One is the loneliest (number)
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
(number)
One is the loneliest (number)
One is the loneliest (number)
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
(number)
One...! (Number one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do)

One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
(number)
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do

Lying beside you
Here in the dark
Feeling your heartbeat with mine
Softly you whisper
You're so sincere
How could our love be so blind?
We sailed on together
We drifted apart
And here you are
By my side
So now I come to you
With open arms
Nothing to hide
Believe what I say
So here I am
With open arms
Hoping you'll see
What your love means to me
Open arms
Living without you
Living alone
This empty house seems so cold
Wanting to hold you
Wanting you near
How much I want to bring you home
But now that you've come back
Turned night into day
I need you to stay
So now I come to you
With open arms
Nothing to hide
Believe what I say
So here I am
With open arms
Hoping you'll see
What your love means to me
Open arms

When you're so far away
At the end of each day
Counting the moments till you fade away
Inside my soul
Under passion's control
Are feelings I can't find the words to explain
Just like the first time I'm helpless again
Wrap your ARMS around me
Let your love surround me
Make love to me now like never before
Wrap your arms around me
From the day you found me
You'll never be alone
The nights are so cold
With just your memory to hold
I've tried to be strong
Reaching out holding on
Alone in my bed
I cling to each word you said
Wanting you more every day we're apart
And each precious moment is safe in my heart
Wrap your arms around me
Let your love surround me
Make love to me now like never before
Wrap your arms around me
From the day you found me
You'll never be alone
Tag mig I din famn
Hall om mig
Do ar den - bara do
Jag vill vara hos dig
Vi hor tillsammans
Vi var sa nara
Natterna ar sa kalla
Jag vill vara hos dig
Saknar dig hur som helst
Jag vill vara hos dig
Hall om mig
Alska mig, alska mig
Just like the first time I'm helpless again
Wrap your arms around me
Let your love surround me
Make love to me now like never before
Wrap your arms around me
From the day you found me
You'll never be alone
Martina McBride
My heart's not ready for the rocking chair
I need somebody who really cares
So tired of livin' solitaire
Someday I'm gonna be
Safe in the arms of love
Strip your heart and it starts to snow
Love is a high-wire act I know
Someday I'll find a net below
Someday I'm gonna be
Safe in the arms of love
Safe in the arms of love
I want arms that know how to rock me
Safe in the arms of love
I wanna fall and know that love has caught me
Safe in the arms of love
Safe in the arms of love
Love
I want a heart to be forever mine
Want eyes to see me satisfied
Gonna hang my heartache out to dry
Some day I'm gonna be
Safe in the arms of love
Safe in the arms of love
I want arms that know how to rock me
Safe in the arms of love
I wanna fall and know that love has caught me
Safe in the arms of love
Safe in the arms of love
Safe in the arms of love
Love

Let's turn the lights down soft and low
And watch the fire embers glow
Let's lock the world outside the door
This is the night we've been waiting for
The moon is shining through the window pane
I hear the echo of a passing train
Taking someone's lover far away
But in your arms is where I wanna stay
Tonight, I'm the luckiest man in the world
Wrapped in the arms of a beautiful girl
And now that I've found you
I'm never gonna let you go
Let your hair fall across your breast
Show me the warmth of your soft caress
The music's playin' soft and slow
We're driftin' into the afterglow
Tonight, I'm the luckiest man in the world
Wrapped in the arms of a beautiful girl
And now that I've found you
I'm never gonna let you go
I'm never gonna let you go
I'm never gonna let you go
I'm never gonna let you go

Only you can do it
You make me feel like I wanna be kissed for ever more
Only you can do it

Only you can do it, only you can do it
Only you can do what you're doing to me
I walk around town with my head held up so high, only you can do it
My feet are on the ground but I feel like I'm touching the sky
Only you can do it

Dire Straits
These mist-covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is in lowlands
And always will be
Someday, you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn
To be brothers in ARMS
Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged higher
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms
There's so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones
Now the sun's gone to hell, and
The moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the starlight
And every line in your palm
We're fools to make war
On our brothers in arms

The lights shine down the valley
The wind blows up the alley, oh
Well I wish I was lying in the ARMS of Mary
She took the pains of boyhood
And turned them in to feel good, oh
How I wish I was lying in the arms of Mary
Mary was the girl who taught me all I had to know
She put me right on my first mistake
Summer wasn't good when I learned all she had to show
She really gave all a boy could take, oh
So now when I get lonely
Still looking for the one and only
That's when I wish was lying in the arms of Mary
Mary was the girl who taught me all I had to know
She put me right on my first mistake
Summer wasn't good when I learned all she had to show
She really gave all a boy could take
The lights shine down the valley
The wind blows up the alley, oh
Well I wish I was lying in the arms of Mary
Lying in the arms of Mary, Lying in the arms of Mary
Lying in the arms of Mary

Once I said I never want your love again
You showed up tonight and proved me wrong
Things I said I'd never do since you and I were through
But here I am back in your arms again
I heard from someone that you were back in town
I knew I couldn't stay away
No matter how I tried this love won't be denied
And here I am back in your arms again
Oh, here I am back in your arms again
I should know better
But what does it matter to a love sick fool
I know I said never but I know forever I'll come back to you
I'll keep coming back to you
I should know better
But what does it matter to a love sick fool
I know I said never but I know forever I'll come back to you
I'll keep coming back to you
Once I said I never want your love again
You showed up tonight and proved me wrong
Things I said I'd never do since you and I were through

Oh, I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
I keep looking for something I can't get
Broken hearts lie all around me
And I don't see an easy way
To get out of this
Her diary sits by the bedside table
The curtains are closed, the cat's in her cradle
Who would've thought
That a boy like me could come to this?
Oh-oh-oh, whoa
Oh, I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh-oh-oh, whoa
Oh, I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been some kind of kiss
I should've walked away
I should've walked away
Is there any just cause for feeling like this?
On the surface, I'm a name on a list
I try to be discreet
But then blow it again
I've lost and found, it's my final mistake
She's loving by proxy, no give and all take
'Cause I've been thrilled to fantasy
One too many times
Oh-oh-oh, whoa
Oh, I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh, I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been some kind of kiss
I should've walked away
I should've walked away
It was a long hot night
She made it easy, she made it feel right
But now it's over, the moment is gone
I followed my hands, not my head
I know I was wrong
Oh, I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh, I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been some kind of kiss
I should've walked away
I should've walked away
I'm back in baby's arms
How I missed those lovin' arms
I'm back where I belong
Back in baby's arms
Don't know why we quarreled
We never did before
Since we found out how it hurt
I bet we never quarrel anymore
I'm back in baby's arms
How I missed those lovin' arms
I'm back where I belong
Back in baby's arms
Thought I didn't need his love
'Til he took it away
Now I'm back where I belong
And in my baby's arms, I'm gonna stay
I'm back in baby's arms
How I missed those lovin' arms
I'm back where I belong
Back in baby's arms
Back in baby's arms

But I want you to know, after all these years
You're still the one I want whisperin' in my ear
You're still the one I want to talk to in bed
Still the one that turns my head
We're still having fun, and you're still the one
I looked at your face every day
But I never saw it 'til I went away
When winter came, I just wanted to go (wanted to go)
Deep in the desert, I longed for the snow

Sweet apple pie
Standing in the street
Hands outta line

When you feel her sting
She make you fly
And you know YOU’RE coming

At everything she meet
Ain't it a crime

She make you fly
Because that's her thing
She make you dry
And you know YOU’RE broken in
Who all need it, who all need it

You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go"
I've seen love go by my door
It's never been this close before
Never been so easy or so slow
I've been shooting in the dark too long
When something not right it's wrong
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.
Dragon clouds so high above
I've only known careless love
It's always hit me from below
This time around it's more correct
Right on target so direct
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.
Purple clover Queen Anne lace
Crimson hair across your face
You could make me cry if you don't know
Can't remember what I was thinking of
You might be spoiling me too much love
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.
Flowers on the hillside blooming crazy
Crickets talking back and forth in rhyme
Blue river running slow and lazy
I could stay with you forever
And never realize the time.
Situations have ended sad
Relationship have all been bad
Mine've been like Verlaine's and Rimbaud
But there's no way I can compare
All those scenes to this affair
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.
Yer gonna make me wonder what I'm doing
Staying far behind without you
Yer gonna make me wonder what I'm saying
Yer gonna make me give myself a good talking to.
I'll look for you in old Honolulu
San Francisco, Ashtabula
Yer gonna have to leave me now I know
But I'll see you in the sky above
In the tall grass in the ones I love
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.

Oh, my name, it ain't nothin', my age, it means less
The country I come from is called the Midwest
I's taught and brought up there, the laws to abide
And that the land that I live in has God on its SIDE
Oh, the history books tell it, they tell it so well
The cavalries charged, the Indians fell
The cavalries charged, the Indians died
Oh, the country was young with God on its side
The Spanish-American War had its day
And the Civil War too was soon laid away
And the names of the heroes I was made to memorize
With guns in their hands and God on their side
The First World War, boys, it came and it went
The reason for fightin' I never did get
But I learned to accept it, accept it with pride
For you don't count the dead when God's on your side
The Second World War came to an end
We forgave the Germans, and then we were friends
Though they murdered six million, in the ovens they fried
The Germans now too have God on their side
I learned to hate the Russians all through my whole life
If another war comes, it's them we must fight
To hate them and fear them, to run and to hide
And accept it all bravely with God on my side
But now we've got weapons of chemical dust
If fire them we're forced to, then fire them we must
One push of the button and they shot the world wide
And you never ask questions when God's on your side
Through many dark hour I been thinkin' about this
That Jesus Christ was betrayed by a kiss
But I can't think for you, you'll have to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot had God on his side
So now as I'm leavin', I'm weary as hell
The confusion I'm feelin' ain't no tongue can tell
The words fill my head, and they fall to the floor
That if God's on our side, he'll stop the next war

' I hear people talkin' bad about the way
We have to live here in this country
Harpin' on the wars we fight
And gripin' 'bout the way things oughta be
And I don't mind 'em switchin' sides
And standin' up for things they believe in
When they're runnin' down my country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Yeah, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singin' be a warnin'
When you're runnin' down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
I read about some squirrely guy
Who claims, he just don't believe in fightin'
And I wonder just how long
The rest of us can count on bein' free
They love our milk and honey
But they preach about some other way of livin'
When they're runnin' down my country, hoss
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Yeah, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singin' be a warnin'
When you're runnin' down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Yeah, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singin' be a warnin'
When you're runnin' down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

From the dark end of the street
To the bright SIDE of the road
We'll be lovers once again
On the bright side of the road
Little darlin', come with me
Won't you help me share my load?
From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road
And into this life we're born
Baby, sometimes, sometimes we don't know why
And time seems to go by so fast
In the twinkling of an eye
Let's enjoy it while we can (let's enjoy it while we can)
Won't you help me share my load? (Help me share my load)
From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road
Cook it
And into this life we're born
Baby, sometimes, baby, sometimes we don't know why, don't know
Time seems to go by so fast
In the twinkling of an eye
Let's enjoy it while we can (let's enjoy it while we can)
And help me sing my song (help me sing my song)
Little darlin', come alone
On the bright side of the road
And, and
On the dark end of the street (from the dark end of the street)
To the bright side of the road (to the bright side of the road)
Little darlin', come alone (on the bright side of the road)
Come on, dear
Well, alright
On the dark end of the street, (on the dark end of the street) oh, baby
To the bright side of the road (to the bright side of the road)
We'll be lovers once again
On the bright side of the road
Oh, we'll be, we'll be lovers once again
On the bright side of the road
You and me, we'll be lovers once again

I want to show you the picture I drew
When I was on the phone talking to you
I made a heart and I colored it red
Cause I want you here on my SIDE of the bed
I've been dreamin' since I was born
And in my dreams I see eyes like yours
I'll be the pillow where you lay your head
If you'll come and sleep on my side of the bed
Lay down
The sheets are white like the moon my love
Dream with me in my room
Lay down
I know you hurt, I feel the pain
Take my hand and come out of the rain
We all need to be comforted
You can get yours on my side of the bed

Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
But now, they only block the sun
They rain and they snow on everyone
So many things I would've done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both SIDES, now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions, I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way that you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way
But now, it's just another show
And you leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away
I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions that I recall
I really don't know love, really don't know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way
Oh, but now, old friends, they're acting strange
And they shake their heads, and they tell me that I've changed
Well, something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day
Oh, I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions, I recall
I really don't know life at all
It's life's illusions that I recall
I really don't know life
I really don't know life at all

There's a dark and a troubled SIDE of life
There's a bright and a sunny side too
Though we meet with the darkness and strife
The sunny side we also may view
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side
Keep on the sunny side of life
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we keep on the sunny side of life
Oh, the storm and its fury broke today
Crushing hopes that we cherish so dear
Clouds and storms will in time pass away
The sun again will shine bright and clear
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side
Keep on the sunny side of life
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we'll keep on the sunny side of life
Let us greet with a song of hope each day
Though the moments be cloudy or fair
Let us trust in our Saviour always
To keep us, every one, in His care
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side
Keep on the sunny side of life
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we'll keep on the sunny side of life

My mama told me there'd be days like this
And, man, she wasn't foolin'
'Cause I just can't believe the way you kiss
Uh, uh-huh
You opened up your mouth with bated breath
You said you'd never leave me
You love me, you hate me, I tried to take the loss
You're crying me a river, but I got to get across
Lovin' you has go to be (Take me to the other SIDE)
Like the devil and the deep blue sea (Take me to the other SIDE)

The kind that likes to leap without a shove
Oh, honey, best believe it
To save a lot of time and foolish pride
I'll say what's on my mind, girl
You love me, you hate me, you cut me down to size
You blinded me with love and, yeah, it opened up my eyes
Lovin' you has go to be (Take me to the other SIDE)
Like the devil and the deep blue sea (Take me to the other SIDE)
My conscience got to be my guide (Take me to the other SIDE)
Oh, honey, take me, take, take, take, take, take, yeah! (Take me to the other SIDE)

I'm looking for another kind of love
Oh, Lordy, how I need it
The kind that likes to leap without a shove
Honey, you best believe it
Now, I ain't one for saying long goodbyes
I hope all is forgiven
You love me, you hate me, I used to be your lover
You know you had it coming, girl, so take me to the other

Oh, we ain't got a barrel of money
Maybe we're ragged and funny
But we'll travel along singing a song
Side by side
Don't know what's coming tomorrow
Maybe it's trouble and sorrow
But we'll travel the road sharin' our load
Side by side
Through all kind of weather
What if the sky should fall
As long as we're together
It doesn't matter at all
When they've all had their quarrels and parted
We'll be the same as we started
Just to travel along singing a song
Side by side
When they've all had their quarrels and parted
We'll be the same as we started
Just to travel along singing a song
Side by side
Side by side
Holly came from Miami, F.L.A.
Hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she
She says, "Hey, babe,
Take a walk on the wild SIDE."
Said, "Hey, honey,
Take a walk on the wild SIDE."
Candy came from out on the Island
In the back room she was everybody's darling
But she never lost her head
Even when she was giving head
She says, "Hey, babe,
Take a walk on the wild SIDE."
Said, "Hey, babe,
Take a walk on the wild SIDE."
And the colored girls go
"Doo do doo do doo do do doo..."
Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York City's the place
Where they said, "Hey, babe,
Take a walk on the wild SIDE."
I said, "Hey, Joe,
Take a walk on the wild SIDE."
Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets
Looking for soul food and a place to eat
Went to the Apollo
You should've seen them go, go, go
They said, "Hey, sugar,
Take a walk on the wild SIDE."
I said, "Hey, babe,
Take a walk on the wild SIDE."
All right, huh
Jackie is just speeding away
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash
Valium would have helped that bash
Said, "Hey, babe,
Take a walk on the wild SIDE."
I said, "Hey, honey,
Take a walk on the wild SIDE."
And the colored girls say,
"Doo do doo do doo do do doo..."
