I'M No Stranger To The Rain - Lyrics - Keith Whitley

Title: I'M No Stranger To The Rain
Artist: Keith Whitley
Composer(s): Ron Hellard, Sonny Curtis

Lyric:
I'm no stranger to the rain, I'm a friend of thunder
Friend, is it any wonder lightning strikes me
I've fought with the devil, got down on his level
But I never gave in, so he gave up on me

I'm no stranger to the rain, I can spot bad weather
And I'm good at finding shelter in a downpour
I've been sacrificed by brothers, crucified by lovers
But through it all, I withstood the pain

I'm no stranger to the rain

But when I get that foggy feeling, when I'm feeling down
If I don't keep my head up, I may drown
But it's hard to keep believing I'll even come out even
While the rain beats your hope in the ground
And tonight it's really coming down

I'm no stranger to the rain but there'll always be tomorrow
And I'll beg, steal or borrow a little sunshine
And I'll put this cloud behind me that's how the man designed me
To ride the wind and dance in a hurricane

I'm no stranger to the rain
Oh, no, I'm no stranger to the rain

I'm no stranger to the rain, I'm a friend of thunder
Friend, is it any wonder lightning strikes me
But I'll put this cloud behind me that's how the man designed me
To ride the wind and dance in a hurricane

I'm no stranger to the rain
Oh, no, I'm no stranger to the rain

So Much Pain - Lyrics - Pain Is Love - Ja Rule

Title: So Much Pain
Album: Pain Is Love
Artist: Ja Rule
Composer(s): Kevin Rhames, Irving Lorenzo, Tupac Amaru Shakur, Christopher Walker, Jeffrey Atkins, Randy Walker, David Grusin, Earl Klugh

Lyric:
Rest in peace to my nigga Stretch, my nigga 'Pac
So much pain

Yeah, yeah
All my, niggas, so much pain
Yeah
Yeah, so much

They'll never take me alive, I'm gettin' high with my fo'-five
Cocked on these niggaz time to die
Even as a lil' nigga, you could picture me hot gun in the rain
I shed the tear 'cause this nigga here inherits the pain
And now I'm labeled as a thug nigga, you know the game

Smokin' weed, fuckin' hoes, slangin' thangs, that's the life I live
Even if I tried to go back I'd get lost
(Come back)
And everything I seem to love I done lost
Fuck the world if they can't understand me

What else could I do? I had to feed my fuckin' family
Yo' lies is my truth, so I'm a drug to your youth
And you don't want 'em nowhere near me, now that they can hear me
I spits razors, never been a stranger to homicide
My city's full of tote-slangers and chalk lines

Why do we die at an early age?
Nigga so young but still a victim of a twelve-gauge
Feel the rage this world has bestowed upon me
And I don't give a fuck 'cause they don't give a fuck 'bout me
So I keep drinkin' Henessy, bustin' at my enemies
Will I live to see twenty-three? There's so much pain

I'm tired of the strain and the pain
(So much pain)
I'm tired of the strain and the pain

Years and years of strugglin' all my life
Runnin' wild as a kid, grew up blazin' 'em right
I'm in a little cell I call my soul lately
It's been a givin' me hell and my heart is screamin', don't enter
I've been cursed, for what it's worth I feel dead

Spittin' to you, I know I'm in way over my head
But Lord hear me, I believe in your 7 day theory
Three souls done sent this whole world teary
(Can you hear me?)
Too hot for you to stand near me

It's so much pain, and niggaz wanna kill me
I'm tired of the stress and the strain
But my, grimiest grimeys got love for me
They're blazin', sendin' shotguns up above for me
My face in, Hennessy with no chaser

Coke rises on every way in, keep us hustlin' nigga
Me and my man got a plan to get this paper nigga
So if you owe nigga, look for the gauge to blow nigga
I figured I'd be considered a killer
Doin' crime excited my mind and leadin' the blind

I can't express my compassion, my satisfaction
For gettin' fucked up and blastin', we all been there
Taught from young to shoot, show no fear and lie
And wipe the tears from yo' mother's eyes, so much pain

I'm tired of the strain and the pain
Oh oh, no no, no no, no no
I'm tired of the strain and the pain
(They'll never take me alive)
I'm tired of the strain and the pain
(They'll never take me alive)

Tired of the strain and the pain
(They'll never take me alive)
I'm tired of the strain and the pain
(They'll never take me alive)
(Cocked on these suckers, time to die)

They got me mobbin' like I'm loc'd and ready to get my slug on
I load my clip and slip my motherfuckin' gloves on
I ain't scared to blast on these suckers if they test me
Trust, I got my glock cocked, playa if they press me
Bust on motherfuckers with a passion

Better duck 'cause I ain't lookin' when I'm ba-blastin'
I'm a nut and drinkin' Hennessy
And gettin' high on the lookout for my enemies
Don't wanna die, tell me why, 'cause the stress gettin' major
A buck-fifty 'cross the face with my razor

What can I do but be a thug until I'm dead and gone?
I keep my brain on the game and stay headstrong
These sorry bastards wanna kill me in my sleep
I'm real they cannot see
And everyday is just a struggle, steady thuggin' on the streets

And I be, ballin' loc, don't let 'em make you worry
Keep swingin' at these suckers 'til you buried
I was born to raise hell, a nigga from the gutter, word to mother
I'm tough, I'm kickin' dust up, ready to bust
I'm on the scene steady muggin' mean until they kill me
I'll be livin' this life, I know you feel me, there's so much pain

I'm tired of the strain and the pain, pain
I'm tired of the strain and the pain
I'm tired of the strain and the pain, pain
I'm tired of the strain and the pain
Yea

Graveyard Chamber - Lyrics - Gravediggaz

Title: Graveyard Chamber
Artist: Gravediggaz
Composer(s): Robert Jr Diggs, James Dockery, David Collins, Arnold Hamilton, Anthony Berkeley, Paul Huston, Walter Reed

Lyric:
Danger, danger, danger danger
The graveyard chamber
Danger, danger, danger, danger, danger, danger
The graveyard chamber

Danger, danger, danger, danger
Enter the graveyard chamber
Danger, danger stranger is major
Enter the graveyard chamber

Ah, here a moan the night is dark and feel fear
You're lost, cold and confused but I'm in prayers
Afraid of a beast that stalked the earth
You're bringing the Jesus, it cross don't work

I seen your type before you read all the laws
But you're scared to go to war
Timid and frail why faith got ya geese
Ya stolen the truth and that all your beliefs

Are you aware son
It's nowhere to hide, nowhere to run
Grymreap comes with my dangerous tongue
I'm outta control like yo kids with guns

Words that stored in a murderous thoughts
My profile as nasty as maggots in pork
I'm dark and damp, enough to rush amps
With the jaws of a flat bull or rusty can

Danger, danger, danger, danger
Danger, danger, danger, danger
It's the graveyard chamber

I be the bush wick dutch master rapper
I love black women and I hate fuckin' crackers, check me yo
My breath stink 'cause I smoke skunk punk
Everyday of the month in a dutch master fuckin' blunt

Bust the cliche
Niggas talkin' he say, she say about me
Ya bitch ass niggas, y'all not ass, y'all titty, y'all style is shitty
How dare you try to represent New York fuckin' city?

I been down since B V D's and Dew Rags, shell tops and shags
I'm the little bad ass with regular and tre bags
Always tryin' to get shit I never had
'Cause times is bad like luck that's why I don't give a fuck

I dig up my nose and my butt
On the bus or the train
This is for niggas walkin' in the rain
Listenin' to they Walkman
Talkin the New York fuckin' slang

Danger, danger, danger, danger
Danger, danger, danger, danger
It's the graveyard chamber

In the streets of New York bullshit walk, green talks
I be the giant on the top of your beanstalk
Waving down your flags, jagged grab niggas with bloody rags
Holdin' fat bags takin' heavy drags then I add more shells to the mags

Shots goin' off you gettin' caught like tag
The diamond crystal I be rippin' up your flesh tissue
To have my pit bull lockin' on your bone gristle

Castin' shadows in every battle
I rabble words like scrabble
Drag your brain through the gravel
At the speed of sound of rhyme travel

Allow me to dabble with a flow that's infallible
Maintain your order as words I slaughter
I destroyed a whole city like Soddom and Gomorrah
Or Babylon I'm runnin' shit like a marathon
Niggas frontin' don' with a set like Frank Avalon

Shabazz is here to cause panic
Another fuckin' madman born to the planet
Sendin' niggas to the pearly gates
I'm psyched out, I've got screws loose like Norman Bates

Shoot shit up like it's a gallery
Blowin' snakes heads off to earn me a salary
Devils choke from the gun smoke
Once I'm provoked I shove a fifth long down ya throat

And let ya taste the steel
Another body unidentified shit from the pot is spilled
Ya punk ass'll get out traumaed
I'm swellin' devils' melons for my man Farak' Muhammed

Get a crew and try to surround me
And one by one I'll light y'all up and send ya asses to king's county
Solo pro-morgue supplier, ya want a nigga bang
Fuck Spenser, 'bazz for hire

Make room the masculine gatekeeper
Kicks suspense in a terrified forms that keep you warm
You're tensed up niggas get wrenched up on a rock
Mix a whiplash bodies are gettin' smashed

So let the volcano blow and erupt destruction drift off
Niggas are gettin' flipped on
Yeah comin' after ya, huh I only got half a ya
Other part froze in Alaska while define the feast a high beam

Ghost of a drug fiend I'm physical dreams
I breathe steam thoughts are plutonic
The chronic scripture angles and riptures I get ya
Yo, I smash like a comet punish tha drain ya

Danger, danger, danger, danger

I stalk the face like a leopard, the microphone shepherd
Is speakin' parables one and two, catch it
The brain counselor, track fertilizer the murdalizer
You never heard a wiser

I open heads like the archives
Allow me to explain my brain in the dark side
I strike ya beam and watch it gleam
I'm solar steadfast, patient like Noah

The rap psycho be the enlightener
Prey upon the weak, the strong I'm the sniper
And light that ass like gasoline
I dig through your chest like a jar of vasoline

I leave your brain regurgitating plancid until your rhymes are exasperated
I clip up a niggas thoughts with a pool of zodiac signs
And I slowly attack the mind the killa priest will bend your ideas
I see you cry in fear there's no surviving here

Danger, danger, danger, danger, danger, danger
It's the graveyard chamber
Danger, danger, danger, danger, danger, danger, danger danger
It's the graveyard chamber
Danger, danger, danger, danger

Bad Meets Evil - Lyrics - Slim Shady LP - Eminem

Title: Bad Meets Evil
Album: Slim Shady LP
Artist: Eminem
Composer(s): Mark Bass, Marshall Mathers, Ryan Montgomery, Jeff Bass

Lyric:
I reckon you ain't familiar with these here parts
You know, there's a story behind that there saloon
Twenty years ago, two outlaws took this whole town over
Sheriffs couldn't stop 'em, quickest damn gun slinger I've ever seen
Got murdered in cold blood, that ol' saloon there was their lil' home
Away from home, they say the ghosts of bad and evil still live
In that tavern and on a quiet night, you can still hear the footsteps of Slim Shady and Royce Da Five-Nine

I don't speak, I float in the air wrapped in a sheet
I'm not a real person, I'm a ghost trapped in a beat
I translate when my voice is read through a seismograph
And a noise is bred, picked up and transmitted through Royce's head
Trapped him in his room, possessed him and hoist his bed
Till the evilness flows through his blood like poisonous lead
Told him each one of his boys is dead
I asked him to come to the dark side, he made a choice and said

Who hard? yo I done heard worse
We can get in two cars and accelerate at each other
To see which one'll swerve first
Two blind bandits panic, whose mental capacity holds
That of a globe on top of nine other planets
Kissed the cheek of the devil, intelligence level is hellier than
Treble peakin' on speakers in the ghetto

Dismissal, I'm not a fair man, disgraced the race of a atheist
Intercepting missiles wit my bare hands like a patriot
One track sliced without swords, I buried the Christ corpse
In my past life when the black knight mounted the white horse
And stay over-worked, its like the Nazis in the nations
Collaborating, attemptin' to take over the earth

'Cuz this is what happens when bad meets evil
We hit the trees till we look like Vietnamese people
He's evil, and I'm bad like Steve Segal
Above the law 'cuz I don't agree wit police either
We ain't eager to be legal
So please leave me with the keys to your jeep eagle

I breathe ether in three amounts
When I stab myself in the knee with a diseased needle
Releasin' rage on anybody in squeezing range
Cold enough to make the seasons change into freezing rain
He's insane, no I'm not, I just want to shoot up
And I'm pissed off 'cuz I can't find a decent vain

The disaster wit dreads
I'm bad enough to commit suicide and survive long enough
To kill my soul after I'm dead
When in danger it's funny actually my flavor's similar to a waiter
'Cuz I serve any stranger with money
I spray a hundred, man until they joint chains
While slippin' bullets at point blank range like they was punches
Piss on a flag and burn it, murder you then come to your funeral

Serve this lobbyist, strangle your body then confirm you
Whippin' human ass, throwin' blows crackin' jaws
Wit my fists wrapped in gauze, dipped in glue and glass
I'm blazin' MC's, at the same time amazin' MC's
Somehow MC's ain't that eye-brow raisin' to me
From all of angles of us, flash a mack loud enough
To cast a avalanche and bust till volcanoes erupt

Hello? Billy, aiyyo what's up
We're comin' to get you
Stop, they know it's us

I used to be a loudmouth, remember me?
I'm the one who burned your house down
Well I'm out now, and this time
I'm comin' back to blow your house up
And I ain't gone leave you a window to jump out of
Give me two fat tabs and three shrooms
And you won't see me like fat people in steam rooms
And when I go to hell and I'm gettin ready to leave
I'ma put air in a bag and charge people to breathe

'Cuz this is what happens when bad meets evil
And we hit the trees till we look like Vietnamese people
He's Evil, and I'm Bad like Steve Segal
Against peaceful, see you in hell for the sequel
We'll be waitin', See you in hell
Wall Street, Royce Da Five-Nine, Slim Shady
See you in hell for the sequel, bye bye
Bad meets evil, what? Till next time

{And so that's the story when bad meets evil
Two of the most wanted individuals in the county
Made Jesse James and Billy the Kid look like law-abiding citizens
It's too bad they had to go out the way they did
Got shot in the back comin' out of that ol' saloon
But their spirits still live on till this day
Wait, did y'all hear that?}

Alone - Lyrics - Ultimate Bee Gees (2CD+DVD) - Bee Gees

Title: Alone
Album: Ultimate Bee Gees (2CD+DVD)
Artist: Bee Gees
Composer(s): Maurice Ernest Gibb, Barry Alan Gibb, Robin Hugh Gibb

Lyric:
I was a midnight rider on a cloud of smoke
I could make a woman hang on every single stroke
I was an iron man, I had a master plan
But I was alone

I could hear you breathing with a sigh of the wind
I remember how your body started trembling
Oh, what a night it's been and for the state I'm in
I'm still alone

And all the wonders made for the earth
And all the hearts in all creation
Somehow I always end up alone
Always end up alone

So I play, I'll wait
'Cause you know that love takes time
We made it so far
Just the beat of a lonely heart
And it's mine
And I don't want to be alone

Well, since I got no message on your answer phone
Since you're busy every minute I just stay at home
I make believe you care, I feel you everywhere
But I'm still alone

I'm on a wheel of fortune with a twist of fate
'Cause I know it isn't heaven, is it love or hate?
Am I the subject of the pain? Am I the stranger in the rain?
I am alone

And if there glory there to behold
Maybe it's my imagination
Another story there to be told

So I play, I'll wait
And I pray it's not too late
We made it so far
Just a beat of a lonely heart
And it's mine
And I don't want to be alone

And all the wonders made for the earth
And all the hearts in all creation
Another story there to be told

So I play, I'll wait
And I pray it's not too late
We made it so far
Just a beat of a lonely heart
And it's mine
And I don't want to be alone

Gone but not out of sight
I'm caught in the rain and there's no one home
Face the heat of the night
The one that you love got a heart that's made of stone

Shine and search for the light
And sooner or later you'll be cruising on your ocean
And clean out of sight
I'm caught in the rain and there's no one home

Face the heat of the night
The one that you love got a heart that's made of stone
Shine and search for the light
And sooner or later you'll be cruising on your ocean
And clean out of sight
I'm caught in the rain and there's no one home

One Foot In Front Of The Other - Lyrics - Bright Eyes

Title: One Foot In Front Of The Other
Artist: Bright Eyes
Composer(s): Conor M Oberst

Lyric:
If you walk away, I'll walk away
First tell me which road you will take
I don't want to risk our paths crossing some day
So you walk that way, I'll walk this way

The future hangs over our heads
And it moves with each current event
Until it falls around like a cold, steady rain
Just stay in when it's looking this way

The moon's laying low in the sky
Forcing everything metal to shine
And the sidewalk holds diamonds, like a jewelry store case
They argue, "Walk this way, no, walk this way"

Laura's asleep in my bed
As I'm leaving she wakes up and says
"I dreamed you were carried away on the crest of a wave
Baby, don't go away, come here"

There's kid's playing guns in the street
And one's pointing his tree branch at me
So I put my hands up, I say, "Enough is enough
If you walk away, I'll walk away"
And he shot me dead

I found a liquid cure
For my land locked blues
It will pass away, like a slow parade
It's leaving but I don't know how soon

The world's got me dizzy again
You'd think after 22 years I'd be used to the spin
And it only feels worse when I stay in one place
So I'm always pacing around or walking away

I'm drinking the ink from my pen
And I'm balancing history books up on my head
But it all boils down to one quotable phrase
"If you love something, give it away"

A good woman would pick you apart
A box full of suggestions for your possible heart
And you may be offended and you may be afraid
But don't walk away, don't walk away

We made love on the living room floor
With the noise in the background from a televised war
And in that defeating pleasure, I thought I heard someone say
"If we walk away, they'll walk away"

But greed is a bottomless pit
And our freedom's a joke, we're just taking a piss
And the whole world must watch the sad comic display
If you're still free, start running away

'Cuz we're coming for ya
We're gonna read them out

I've grown tired of holding this pose
I feel more like a stranger each time I come home
So I'm making a deal with the devils of fame
Saying, "Let me walk away, please"

You'll be free, child, once you have died
From the shackles of language and measurable time
And then we can trade places play musical graves
Tell them walk away, walk away, walk away

So I'm up at dawn putting on my shoes
I just want to make a clean escape
I'm leaving but I don't know where to
I know I'm leaving but I don't know where to

Title: Landlocked Blues

Where Tomorrow Is - Lyrics - Bee Gees

Title: Where Tomorrow Is
Artist: Bee Gees
Composer(s): Maurice Ernest Gibb, Robin Hugh Gibb, Barry Gibb

Lyric:
She's gone, I'm a victim of love and I reach for her cry
There's no perception of time
She's out of my world and I'm alone
The city sleeps, she comes and she goes

She loves another one and I got no chance, no time
Ain't nothing stops the rain but the sunshine
I can see nobody , tell me where my angel goes
I say the devil knows

I'm lost, no sky above me, no earth below me
Show me where tomorrow is and teach me to see
Someone else may cry for me, could be
Show me where tomorrow is 'cause I don't know
Show me where tomorrow is 'cause I don't know
Show me where tomorrow is

Suspicion, the lies on your lips and your tenderness
I lie in wait for the gift of her pain
She'll never be mine and I'm all alone
And through a stranger, lives can change and hearts can overcome

But I need her face, so young
Ain't nothing stops the fire and it burns on
Too late now she tells me, we cannot live this lie
She came home to say goodbye

I'm lost, no sky above me, no earth below me
Show me where tomorrow is and teach me to see
Someone else may cry for me, could be
Show me where tomorrow is, 'cause I don't know

Show me, I must go on
Whatever the heart must take
I'll keep my love alive
And all you got is freedom, it ain't enough

I'm lost, no sky above me, no earth below me
Show me where tomorrow is and teach me to see
Someone else may cry for me , could be
Show me where tomorrow is, 'cause I don't know
Show me

Hitchhiker - Lyrics - John Denver

Title: Hitchhiker
Artist: John Denver
Composer(s): John Denver, Steve Weisberg

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
If you're drivin' down the road and you come across an old man
Holdin' out his thumb in the wind
His clothes are old and dirty that doesn't matter
It's his eyes that tell you where he's been

If you're not afraid to take your chances on a stranger
He might have some company to lend
Pull off to the side, let that old man have a ride
He can tell you all the crazy things he's seen

I'm an old hitchhiker, the highway is the only home I know
Where you're headed I don't mind
I ain't been there in some time
And it's just exactly where I want to go

I can tell you how I started in the circus as a barker
Drawin' people in from far and wide
They never did regret the dollar that it cost 'em
We always left 'em feelin' good inside

We were headed for Montana when we hired us a dancer
Her beauty it was more than I can say
Then one summer night she set my soul on fire
Lord, I wish that she was here with me today

I'm an old hitchhiker, I wonder what's a waitin' 'round the bend
I don't know what I might see and I don't need no guarantee
Just a ride from here to there and back again

I was only seventeen when I took the open highway
Took it for my teacher and a friend
I've been thirty years a-thumbin', some might call it bummin'
It's better than just cryin' in the wind

If you're drivin' down the road and you come across an old man
Holdin' out his thumb in the rain
You can pull off to the side, let the poor boy have a ride
He can tell you all the crazy things he's seen

I'm an old hitchhiker lookin' to the far side of the hill
Some people say I'll settle down
Build a home in some small town
But within my heart I know I never will

I'm an old hitchhiker, yeah

I Wish That Wasn'T All - Lyrics - Revelation - Joe Nichols

Title: I Wish That Wasn'T All
Album: Revelation
Artist: Joe Nichols
Composer(s): Chris Dubois, Ashley Gorley

Lyric:
I'm no stranger to the rain came on my radio today
I hadn't heard that voice in way too long
I've still got those worn out tapes the only three or four he made
What a shame, I wish that wasn't all

Hearin' that song took me back to my senior
The year I asked Mary Ellen Mayfield to the prom
She agreed to go as friends and I remember thinkin'
Man I wish, Lord, I wish that wasn't all

Ain't it funny how sometimes, we can be unsatisfied
With things we should be thankful for
Like an old Keith Whitley song or a slow dance at the senior prom
Some things just leave you wantin' more

Like the way, I felt that June when dad called me with the news
Through tears, he told me my grand dad was gone
He lived til' he was ninetyfive, I know that's a good long life
Still I wish, Lord, I wish that wasn't all

Ain't it funny how sometimes we can be unsatisfied
With things we should be thankful for
Like the time we get to spend with the ones we love, family and friends
Some things just leave you wantin' more

I thank God that I found you untill now I never knew
That love could be this strong
I could stay right here and hold you close for ten forevers in a row
Still I'd wish, I'd wish that wasn't all
Yeah I wish, Lord, I wish that wasn't all

Southbound Train - Lyrics - Nanci Griffith

Title: Southbound Train
Artist: Nanci Griffith
Composer(s): Julie Gold

Lyric:
I'm sitting on a southbound train staring at the sky
I'm thinking of my childhood and I'm trying not to cry
While a stranger sleeps against me and it feels like I'm his wife
The towns and cities flutter past like the pages of my life

My heart is on the baggage-rack, it's heavy as can be
I wish that I could find someone who would carry it for me
Just to pay it some attention and to handle it with care
Because it has been dropped and is in need of some repair

Some things I know, some things I guess
Some things I wish that I could learn to express
Like the way that I feel as I stare at the sky
And I remember your voice and the sound of goodbye

Maybe it's the autumn chill, maybe it's the rain
Maybe I should wake the stranger and ask him his name
But my eyes, they would betray me and my words could not defend
No, I must learn to wait my turn before I love again

Some things I know, some things I guess
Some things I wish that I could learn to express
Like the way that I feel as I stare at the sky
And I remember your voice and the sound of goodbye

Do It For Love - Lyrics - Hall &Amp; Oates

Title: Do It For Love
Artist: Hall &Amp; Oates
Composer(s): Paul Pesco, Daryl Hall, John Oates, Billy Mann

Lyric:
I would fly ten thousand miles
Through the pouring rain
Just to see your face

I'd bare my soul to a total stranger
Just to say your name
And I'm not ashamed

Just to love you into every morning
I would change my name
And run away

I won't do it for money
I won't do it for pride
I won't do it to please somebody else
If it don't feel right

But I'll do it for you
And at least I'll try
I don't need any other reason
Than I feel it deep inside

I'll do it for love
I'll do it for love
(What I do for love)

I would write your name across the sky
So, the world could see
What you mean to me

I'd sing songs at the top of my voice
In an empty room
Just to dance with you

And to love you into every morning
I'll leave the world behind
And I'll slow down time

I won't do it for money, do it for money
I won't do it for pride, I won't do it for pride
I won't do it to please somebody else
If it don't feel right

But I'll do it for you
And at least I'll try
I don't need any other reason
Than I feel it deep inside

I'll do it for love
I'll do it for love

What I do for love can take us anywhere at all
Anywhere, anywhere

I won't do it for money, no
I won't do it for pride, do it for pride
I won't do it to please somebody else
If it don't feel right

But I'll do it for you
And at least I'll try
I don't need any other reason
Than I feel it deep inside

I'll do it for love
I'll do it for love

(What I do for love)
Than I feel it deep inside
(What I do for love)
I'll do it, baby
(What I do for love)

I won't do it for money
(What I do for love)
I won't do it for pride
I won't do it to please somebody
(What I do for love)
If it don't feel right

But I'll do it for you
And at least I'll try
(What I do for love)

Love The Hurt Away - Lyrics - A Day In The Life - Eric Benet

Title: Love The Hurt Away
Album: A Day In The Life
Artist: Eric Benet
Composer(s): George T. Nash Jr., Demonte Posey, Eric Benet Jordan

Lyric:
Now we've been friends girl for quite a while
I've never been the kind for beggin' and pleadin'
But I can tell by your hazy smile
All of his lies you've been finding are heavy on your mind

He broke your heart and he took your pride
Will you ever love again?
Though you try you don't believe it
Come over here, talk to me a while
Girl if you tried you would find that

Someone like me, simple and free
I could change your mind
I'll love you in places he couldn't find
Girl don't you see for the chance I've been waiting
For you to let me
Love the hurt away
Love the hurt away

If you ever did, girl you need me now
You don't need the complications of running to a stranger
So I'm coming over and I'll stay a while
Taking my time till I find that sparkle in your smile

Like a father's shoulder or a mother's arms
Girl, I've always been the one
For strength and understanding
The rain will stop the clouds will be gone
Girl if you tried you would find that

You're someone like me, simple and free
We're two of a kind
I'll love you in ways no one has ever tried
Girl don't you see for the chance I've been waiting
For you to let me
Love the hurt away
Love the hurt away
(For so many years I been waiting for this night baby)
Love the hurt away
Love the hurt away

I been there for you and you for me
Better friends we'll never find
Nobody really knows you
(Knows you, knows you)
No baby not the way I do
(You know it's true, ooh)

We could miss an opportunity
For what we've both been trying to find
And girl it's time I told you
(Told you told you)
That all I ever really really wanted
All I ever really wanted was to love you

Love the hurt away
Love the hurt away
Love the hurt away
Love the hurt away

Oh, love
Love the hurt away
Oh, love
Love the hurt away
Oh, love
Love the hurt away

Tamburitza Lingua - Lyrics - Revelling / Reckoning - Ani Difranco

Title: Tamburitza Lingua
Album: Revelling / Reckoning
Artist: Ani Difranco
Composer(s): Angela Difranco

Lyric:
A cold and porcelain lonely in an old New York hotel
A stranger to a city that she used to know so well
Bathing in a bathroom that is bathed in the first blue light
Of the beginning of a century at the end of an endless night

Then she is wet behind the ears and wafting down the avenue
Pre-rush hour, post-rain shower
Stillness seeping upwards like steam
From another molten sewer summer in New York

They've been spraying us
With chemicals in our sleep
Us, they
Something about the mosquitoes
Having some kind of disease
Them, me

CIA foul play if you ask the guy
Selling hair dryers out of a gym bag
Chemical warfare

"I'm telling you, lab rat to lab rat", he says
"That's where the truth is at"
That's where the truth is at
That's where the truth is at

And everything seems to have gone terribly wrong that can
But one breath at a time is an acceptable plan
She tells herself and the air is still there
And this morning it's even breathable

And for a second the relief is unbelievable
And she's a heavy sack of flour sifted her burden lifted
She's full of clean wind for one lean moment
And then she's trapped again

Reverted, caged and contorted
With no way to get free
And she's getting plenty of little kisses
But nobody's slippin' her the key

Her whole life is a long list of what ifs
And she doesn't even know where to begin
And the pageantry of suffering therein
Rivals television

TV is, after all, the modern day roman coliseum
Human devastation as mass entertainment
And now millions sit jeering collectively cheering
The bloodthirsty hierarchy of the patriarchal arrangement

She is hailing a cab
She is sailing down the avenue
She's 19 going on 30

Or maybe she's really 30 now
It's hard to say
It's hard to keep up with time once it's on its way

And, you know, she never had much of a chance
Born into a family built like an avalanche
And somewhere in the 80's between the Oat Bran and the Ozone
She started to figure out things like why

One eye pointed upwards looking for the holes in the sky
One eye on the little flashing red light
A Picasso face twisted and listing down the canvas
Of the end of an endless night

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
And Kerplooey you're done
You're done for, you're done for good
So tell me did you?
Did you do, did you do all you could?

Man Of Constant Sorrow - Lyrics - Bob Dylan - Bob Dylan

Title: Man Of Constant Sorrow
Album: Bob Dylan
Artist: Bob Dylan
Composer(s): Bob (Arr) Dylan

Lyric:
I'm a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble all my days
I'll say, goodbye to Colorado
Where I was born and partly raised

Your mother says, I'm a stranger
My face you'll never see, no more
But there's one promise, darlin'
I'll see you on Gods golden shore

Through this open world I'm bound to ramble
Through ice and snows, sleet and rain
I'm bound to ride that mornin' railroad
Perhaps I'll die on that train

I'm goin' back to Colorado
The place that I've started from
If I'd knowed how bad you'd treat me
Honey, I never would have come
