Standin' On The Borderline - Lyrics - Carole King

Title: Standin' On The Borderline
Artist: Carole King
Composer(s): Gerry Goffin, Carole King

Lyric:
We're standin' on the borderline
Between falling in love and falling apart
I'm ready to cross the borderline
If I can't have you, it'll break my heart

Nothing really holds a candle to love
But you gotta know how to handle your love
If you want it to last
You just can't let it burn out too fast

You can't stand still on the borderline
You either make your move or you turn away
I'm too close to the borderline
I'm coming across if you want me to stay

You know I'm experienced
Every day can't be a fireworks show
But when you walk in the room
And it starts to glow
You don't have to tell me
I already know

We're ready to cross the borderline
Between falling in love and falling apart
Ready to cross the borderline
If I can't have you, it'll break my heart

We're standin' on the borderline
Ready to cross the borderline
Standin' on the borderline
If I can't have you, it'll break my heart

Standin' on the borderline
Ready to cross the borderline
Standin' on the borderline
If I can't have you, it'll break my heart

Standin' on the borderline
Ready to cross the borderline
Standin' on the borderline
If I can't have you, it'll break my heart

Borderline - Lyrics - Alabama

Title: Borderline
Artist: Alabama
Composer(s): Teddy Gentry, Virgil Beckham, Larry Hanson, Greg Fowler

Lyric:
In a cloud of dust cross Texas, south of San Antone
The lawman and the cowboy pushed their horses on
Racin' toward the Rio, running out of time
They had to catch the outlaws before they crossed the borderline

Well, the lawman wanted justice the cowboy revenge
They tracked the outlaws' horses up to the river's edge
And there across the Rio a badge ain't worth a dime
The law was in their own hands once they crossed the borderline

So they ride to the desert wind down a dusty trail
Destiny begins, heroes never turn or look back
They just ride through the sands of time on the borderline

In the safety of the badlands the outlaws stopped their run
The campfire rings with laughter of evil things they've done
How they'd taken all they wanted and killed the cowboy's wife
And knew no one would follow them, cross the borderline

The lawman and the cowboys stepped out of the dark
And it was two against the twenty and every bullet found it's mark
And so goes the legend that out there in the night
The two still ride together somewhere beyond the borderline

So they ride to the desert wind, down a dusty trail
Destiny begins, heroes never turn or look back
They just ride through the sands of time on the borderline

They ride to the desert wind, down a dusty trail
Destiny begins, heroes never turn or look back

They ride to the desert wind, down a dusty trail
Destiny begins, heroes never turn or look back
They just ride through the sands of time on the borderline

Cross The Borderline - Lyrics - Jerry Jeff Walker

Title: Cross The Borderline
Artist: Jerry Jeff Walker
Composer(s): Daniel Moore

Lyric:
Well, there's nothin' in this world that can take away my memory
Of my travels through the great northwestern mountain scenery
That good woman by my side with her lips like cherry wine
How she kissed me and said she loved me as we crossed that borderline

Don't fly away, woman of mine
Don't you fade away, don't you be that kind
Don't you fly away, woman of mine
Just tell me that you love me when we cross that borderline

If you're ever in Montana take a message to my friend
That the glamor of the city is as empty as the wind
'Cause it'll steal away our joy, drive a heart stone blind
It makes a cold Montana winter seem like something warm and fine

Don't fly away, woman of mine
Don't you fade away, don't you be that kind
Don't you fly away, woman of mine
Just tell me that you love me as we cross that borderline

Don't fly away, woman of mine
Don't you fade away, don't you be that kind
Don't you fly away, woman of mine
Always tell me that you love me as we cross that borderline

Tell me that you love me when we sail across that borderline

Across The Borderline - Lyrics - Ry Cooder

Title: Across The Borderline
Artist: Ry Cooder
Composer(s): Ryland Peter Cooder, James Luther Dickinson, John Robert Hiatt

Lyric:
There's a land, so I've been told
Every street is paved with gold
And it's just across the borderline
And when it's time to take your turn
Here's a lesson you must learn
You could lose more than you ever hope to find

And when you reach the broken promised land
Every dream slips though your hand
Then you'll know it's too late to change your mind
'Cause you pay the price to come this far
Just to wind up where you are
And you're still just across the borderline

Up and down The Rio Grande
A thousand foot prints in the sand
Reveal the secret no one can define
The river flows on like a breath
In between our life and death
Tell me who the next to cross the borderline

And when you reach the broken promised land
Every dream slips through your hand
Then you'll know it's too late to change your mind
'Cause you pay the price to come this far
Just to wind up where you are
And you're still just across the borderline

Bourbon Borderline - Lyrics - Smoke Rings in the Dark - Gary Allan

Title: Bourbon Borderline
Album: Smoke Rings in the Dark
Artist: Gary Allan
Composer(s): Jennifer Bibeau, John Wayne Wiggins, Harley Lee Allen

Lyric:
I wake up in the morning full of dread
Tryin' to remember what I'd said
I say that I won't call you and I mean it every time
Until I cross that Bourbon borderline

I wish that I could tell you why I call
Sometimes it's just hard for me, that's all
I know that it's over and it's just a waste of time
Until I cross that Bourbon borderline

Memories of you surround me
And I'm afraid the tears might drown me
Oh, I think I'm doing fine
Until I cross that Bourbon borderline

It's good that I just do this now and then
You know I'm really not a drinking man
But I can't bear to talk about us any other time
Until I cross that Bourbon borderline

Memories of you surround me
And I'm afraid the tears might drown me
Oh, I think I'm doing fine
Until I cross that Bourbon borderline

Oh, I think I'm doing fine
Until I cross that Bourbon borderline

Idiot Wind - Lyrics - Blood On The Tracks - Bob Dylan

Title: Idiot Wind
Album: Blood On The Tracks
Artist: Bob Dylan
Composer(s): Jacques Levy, Bob Dylan

Lyric:
Someone's got it in for me
They're planting stories in the press
Whoever it is I wish they'd cut it out quick
But when they will I can only guess

They say I shot a man named Gray
And took his wife to Italy
She inherited a million bucks
And when she died it came to me
I can't help it if I'm lucky

People see me all the time
And they just can't remember how to act
Their minds are filled with big ideas
Images and distorted facts

Even you, yesterday
You had to ask me where it was at
I couldn't believe after all these years
You didn't know me, any better than that
Sweet lady

Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your mouth
Blowing down the back roads headin' south
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot babe
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe

I ran into the fortune-teller, who said
"Beware of lightnin' that might strike?
I haven't known peace and quiet for so long
I can't remember what it's like

There's a lone soldier on the cross
Smoke pourin' out of a boxcar door
You didn't know it, you didn't think it could be done
In the final end he won the war
After losin' every battle

I woke up on the roadside
Daydreamin' 'bout the way things sometimes are
Visions of your chestnut mare
Shoot through my head and are makin' me see stars

You hurt the ones that I love best
And cover up the truth with lies
One day you'll be in the ditch
Flies buzzin' around your eyes
Blood on your saddle

Idiot wind, blowing through the flowers on your tomb
Blowing through the curtains in your room
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot babe
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe

It was gravity which pulled us down
And destiny which broke us apart
You tamed the lion in my cage
But it just wasn't enough to change my heart

Now everything's a little upside down
As a matter of fact the wheels have stopped
What's good is bad, what's bad is good
You'll find out when you reach the top
You're on the bottom

I noticed at the ceremony
Your corrupt ways had finally made you blind
I can't remember your face anymore
Your mouth has changed, your eyes don't look into mine

The priest wore black on the seventh day
And sat stone-faced while the building burned
I waited for you on the running boards
Near the cypress tree
While the springtime turned, slowly into autumn

Idiot wind, blowing like a circle around my skull
From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Capitol
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot, babe
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe

I can't feel you anymore
I can't even touch the books you've read
Every time I crawl past your door
I been wishin' I've been somebody else instead

Down the highway, down the tracks
Down the road to ecstasy
I followed you beneath the stars
Hounded by your memory
And all your ragin' glory

I been double-crossed now
For the very last time and now I'm finally free
I kissed goodbye the howling beast
On the borderline which separated you from me

You'll never know the hurt I suffered
Nor the pain I rise above
And I'll never know the same about you
Your holiness or your kind of love
And it makes me feel so sorry

Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats
Blowing through the letters that we wrote
Idiot wind, blowing through the dust upon our shelves
We're idiots, babe
It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves

Faith & Dedication - Lyrics - Bombshell Rocks

Title: Faith & Dedication
Artist: Bombshell Rocks
Composer(s): Christian Maatta, Marten Cedergran

Lyric:
These walls of lies and hatred
I watch them as they fall
I blow them down like a house of cards

Some move with lady luck
I guess, I've never heard her call
I think someone put a bullet in her heart

Heartbeat, faith and dedication
A journey through a wicked, wicked world
Heartbeat from the bottom line of a nation
Close, close to the heat, so let's fucking burn

These walls of lies and hatred
Is becoming catastrophe
Well, watch me as I cross the borderline

A cold wind's blowing break the summer heat
I see the city freeze
But there's a fire in this heart of mine

Heartbeat, faith and dedication
A journey through a wicked, wicked world
Heartbeat from the bottom line of a nation
Close, close to the heat, so let's fucking burn

Heartbeat, faith and dedication
A journey through a wicked, wicked world
Heartbeat from the bottom line of a nation
Close, close to the heat, so let's fucking burn

These walls of lies and hatred
I watch them as they fall
I blow them down like a house of cards

Some move with lady luck
I guess, I've never heard her call
I think someone put a bullet in her heart

Heartbeat, faith and dedication
A journey through a wicked, wicked world
Heartbeat from the bottom line of a nation
Close, close to the heat, so let's fucking burn

Underneath Everything - Lyrics - Down

Title: Underneath Everything
Artist: Down
Composer(s): Pphilip Hansen Anselmo, Pepper Keenan

Lyric:
She's fucking around [incomprehensible]
Are you the fuck you are outside batters sucker?
All the fucker

You woe to me, battered man
Raise the monolith
Deitize, my spirit rise
Like days the world forgets
Down the drain, laid to lame
A fool ass hearty bliss
Borderline suicide
Celebrate before my death
(Suck all you fucks)
Promised land divide
(Promised land, that's [Inaudible])
That's why the world lies

I give up
That's enough
I give up
I'm underneath my life

Dog in heat, beware the street
It's there you'll meet your end
Poverty is not for me
But I'll take her back again
To prove a point, to laugh it off
To cross you off my path
Grip the night ohh, pull the cord
A much inspired wrath
(Inspired wrath)
Promised land divide
(The promised land doesn't [Inaudible])
That's where the world lies
(Yeah)
Promised land divide
(Hoo aaa, hoo aaa, hoo aaa)
That's where the world lies

I give up
That's enough
Give up
I'm underneath my life
Give up
That's enough
Give up
Give up

I give up
That's enough
(Give up)
Give up
I'm underneath my life

I give up
That's enough
(Yea yea yea)
Fuck you, give up
(Give up)
I'm underneath my life

(I'll tell you, no)
I'm underneath my life
(Yea yea yea, yea yea yea)
I'm underneath my life
(Yea yea yea yea yea yea)
Underneath my life

Carry me back from the war
Carry me back from the war
Carry me back from the war
And from the lord

Hello L.A., Bye Bye Birmingham - Lyrics - Blue Cheer

Title: Hello L.A., Bye Bye Birmingham
Artist: Blue Cheer
Composer(s): Mac Davis, Delaney Bramlett

Lyric:
I packed everything I own and I put it in a knapsack
I'm leaving Birmingham, yes, I am, and I ain't lookin' back
I bought me a guitar and I wrote a song
I played it for the DJ on the telephone

Going out to Hollywood, feeling good, yes, I am
Hello L.A., bye, bye Birmingham
Alright

Riding on a Greyhound bus 'cross the Tennessee borderline
Eating from a Po' Boy sandwich, taking drinks from a quart of wine
I got to get off at the very last stop
My ticket's only good to Little Rock

Going out to Hollywood, feeling good, yes, I am
Hello L.A., bye, bye Birmingham

I got mixed up with a big city woman in Little Rock
I had to spend a week one time in the county jail
I had to take a two-day job to get my guitar out of hock
That's the way it goes when you got no dough to make bail

I ran out of transportation funds, I had to hitchhike
I caught me a ride with a tattooed dude on a motorbike
People gonna know when I'm in town
Heads are gonna turn when they hear my sound

Going out to Hollywood, feeling good, yes, I am
Hello L.A., bye, bye Birmingham
Ow, uh

You know that I'm tired of going down
I believe I'm gonna leave this town
I'm leaving Birmingham, yes, I am
Yes, I am, yes, I am

Hello L.A., bye, bye Birmingham
Hello L.A., bye, bye Birmingham
Hello L.A., bye, bye Birmingham
Hello L.A., bye, bye Birmingham

Bye, bye Birmingham
Bye, bye Birmingham
Bye, bye Birmingham
Bye, bye Birmingham
Bye, bye Birmingham
