It's been a mystery and still they try to see
Why somethin' good can hurt so bad
Caught on a one-way street, the taste of bittersweet
Love will survive somehow, some way

One love feeds the fire
One heart burns desire
I wonder, who's cryin' now
Two hearts born to run
Who'll be the lonely one
I wonder, who's cryin' now

So many stormy nights, so many wrongs or rights
Neither could change their headstrong ways
And in a lover's rage, they tore another page
The fightin' is worth the love they save...

One heart burns desire
I wonder, who's cryin' now
Two hearts born to run
Who'll be the lonely one
I wonder, who's cryin' now

Only so many tears you can cry
'Til the heartache is over
And now you can say your love
Will never die

One heart burns desire
I wonder, who's cryin' now
Two hearts born to run
Who'll be the lonely one
I wonder, who's cryin' now

Winter is here again oh Lord,
Haven't been home in a year or more
I hope she holds on a little longer

Sent a letter on a long summer day
Made of silver, not of clay
I've been runnin' down this dusty road

Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'

I've been trying to make it home
Got to make it before too long
I can't take this very much longer
I'm stranded in the sleet and rain
Don't think I'm ever gonna make it home again
The mornin' sun is risin'
It's kissing the day

Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'

For mydoghasfleas...

Bitin' Fleas Blues

I've got a cat and a dog,
They sleeps out in the hall;
I've got a cat and a dog,
They sleeps out in the hall;
They scratches off all the fleas,
And they come in my room to have a ball.


Start hopping and jumping,
Crawling and biting on me,
They're hopping and jumping,
Crawling and biting on me,
It's known to be no bedbug;
It's nothin' but a doggone flea.

You have to get a spy-glass
To see where that little devil lands;
You have to get a spy-glass
To see where that little devil lands;
He crawls as light as a gnat,
But he bites like a doggone man.

He will start to crawling from your feet,
He'll crawl up around your waist,
He'll start from your feet,
And he'll crawl up around your waist;
Then he'll bite you so doggone hard,
To keep from falling you will need a brace. Then you will look for him,
But don't never think he don't see you;
You may look for him and can't find him,
But don't never think he don't see you.
'Cause he will crawl behind you,
Nibble your backbone half in two.

Brawk! Brawk!

Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens
One night farmer Brown was takin' the air
Locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care
Down in the henhouse something disturbed
When he shouted "Who's there?" this is what he heard:

There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
So calm yourself and stop that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
We chickens tryin' to sleep
And you butt in
And hobble hobble hobble hobble with your shin


There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
You're stompin' around, shaking the ground
You're kicking up an awful dust
We chickens tryin' to sleep
And you butt in
And hobble hobble hobble hobble - it's a sin


Tomorrow is a busy day
We got things to do
We got eggs to lay
We got ground to dig
And worms to scratch
It takes a lot of settin' gettin' chicks to hatch


Oh there ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
So quiet yourself and stop that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
Kindly point that gun the other way
And hobble hobble hobble off and hit the hay


Tomorrow is a busy day
We got things to do
We got eggs to lay
We got ground to dig
And worms to scratch
It takes a lot of settin' gettin' chicks to hatch


There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
So quiet yourself and stop that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
And kindly point that gun the other way
And hobble hobble hobble off and hit the hay


Hey, hey boss man, what do you say?
It's easy pickings, there ain't nobody here but us chickens...

How do you keep the music playing
How do you make it last
How do keep the song from fading
Too fast


How do you lose yourself to someone
And never lose your way
How do you not run out of new things
To say


And since you know we're always changing
How can it be the same
You're sure your heart will fall apart
Each time you hear her name


If we can be the best of lovers
Yet be the best of friends
If we can try with every day
To make it better as it goes
With any luck than I suppose
The music never ends

Wrapped around each other
Lying in each other's arms
That first cold winter together
Trying so hard to stay warm
Watching those old movies
Falling in love so desperately
Honey I was your hero
And you were my leading lady.


We had it all
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our old late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo


Honey can't you remember
We played all the parts
That sweet scene of surrender
When you gave me your heart
Please say you will...play it again
Cause I love you still
Baby this can't be the end.


We had it all
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our old late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo


Here's lookin at you kid
Missing all the things we did
We can find it once again, I know
Just like they did in Key Largo


We had it all
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our old late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo

Mister Sandman, bring me a dream
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen.
Give him two lips like roses and clover
Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over.

Sandman, I'm so alone.
Don't have nobody to call my own.
Please turn on your magic beam.
Mister Sandman, bring me a dream.

Mister Sandman, bring me a dream.
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen.
Give him the word that I'm not a rover,
And tell him that his lonesome nights are over.

Mister Sandman, bring me a dream.
Give him a pair of eyes with a come hither gleam.
Give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci,
And lots of wavy hair like Liberace.

Mister Sandman, someone to hold,
Would be so peachy before we're too old.
So please turn on your magic beam.
Mister Sandman bring me,
Please, please, please
Mister Sandman bring me a dream.

Aww...I think I found catt and otter's wedding song...

My sweet hunk o' trash

You don't act up too much
Ain't got that glamour touch
You're trifling lazy
Ain't worth a cigarette ash
Look out here mamma
Look out here
You carry me too fast
You're just my good for nothin'
My sweet hunk o' trash
My, my how you sound
You're very short on looks
Dumb, when it comes to books
Look out, baby
Watch it, honey
And you stay full of corn
Just like a suck o' trash
What you want me to do in my idle moments
You're just a good-for-nothin'
But my sweet hunk o' trash
Let me get a word in there honey, you running your mouth
You said I've worried you for years
I'm just above fly, bench, and beers
While you sweat over a hot stove slinging hash
Work my fingers right down to the elbows
Yes I may be good-for-nothin'
But I'm still your sweet hunk o' trash
First to admit it baby
You said I spread my love all around
And with the chicks all over town
But, how can I when you keep me broke
So I can't spend no cash
Yes I may be good-for-nothin'
But I'm still your sweet hunk o' trash
Listen hear Pops,
You know you lie about your youth
I don't lie baby
I'm just careless with the truth, that's all
How careless can you be
Oh, no
With all your chicks
You try to make a flash
Now baby
It ain't like that, no
But you're still my good-for-nothin'
My sweet hunk o' trash
Now when you stay out very late
It sure makes me mad to wait how come, baby?
Cos, you come home too tired
To raise just one eyelash
Watch it baby
Watch it
You're just good-for-nothin'
But you're my sweet hunk o' trash
Yes indeed!

When I was just a little girl,
I asked my mother, "What will I be?
Will I be pretty?
Will I be rich?"
Here's what she said to me:

"Que sera, sera,
Whatever will be, will be;
The future's not ours to see.
Que sera, sera,
What will be, will be."

When I was just a child in school,
I asked my teacher, "What will I try?
Should I paint pictures"
Should I sing songs?"
This was her wise reply:

"Que sera, sera,
Whatever will be, will be;
The future's not ours to see.
Que sera, sera,
What will be, will be."

When I grew up and fell in love.

I asked my sweetheart, "What lies ahead?
Will we have rainbows
Day after day?"
Here's what my sweetheart said:

"Que sera, sera,
Whatever will be, will be;
The future's not ours to see.
Que sera, sera,
What will be, will be."

Now I have Children of my own.
They ask their mother, "What will I be?"
Will I be handsome?
Will I be rich?"
I tell them tenderly:

"Que sera, sera,
Whatever will be, will be;
The future's not ours to see.
Que sera, sera,
What will be, will be.
Que Sera, Sera!"

If you ever go down Trinidad, they make you feel so very glad
Calypso sing and make up rhyme, guarantee you one real good fine time
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola. Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter workin' for the Yankee dollar. Oh, beat it
man, beat it


Since the Yankee come to Trinidad, they got the young girls all goin' mad
Young girls say they treat 'em nice, make Trinidad like paradise
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola. Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter workin' for the Yankee dollar. Oh, you vex me, you
vex me


From Chicachicaree to Mona's Isle, native girls all dance and smile
Help soldier celebrate his leave, make every day like New Year's Eve
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola. Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter workin' for the Yankee dollar.
It's a fact, man, it's a fact


In old Trinidad, I also fear, the situation is mighty queer
Like the Yankee girl, the native swoon when she hear der Bingle croon
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola. Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter workin' for the Yankee dollar


Out on Manzanella Beach, G.I. romance with native peach
All night long, make tropic love, next day, sit in hot sun and cool off
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola. Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter workin' for the Yankee dollar.


It's a fact, man, it's a fact
Rum and Coca-Cola. Rum and Coca-Cola. Workin' for the Yankee dollar

Some enchanted evening
You may see a stranger
You may see a stranger
Across a crowded room
And somehow you know
You know even then
That somewhere you'll see her again and again

Some enchanted evening
Someone may be laughing
You may hear her laughing
Across a crowded room
And night after night
As strange as it seems
The sound of her laughter will sing in your dreams

Who can explain it
Who can tell you why
Fools give you reasons
Wise men never try

Some enchanted evening
When you find your true love
When you feel her call you
Across a crowded room
Then fly to her side
And make her your own
Or all through your life you may dream all alone

Once you have found her
Never let her go
Once you have found her
Never let her go

There's a man who leads a life of danger.
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger.
With every move he makes,
Another chance he takes.
Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow.

Secret Agent Man.
Secret Agent Man.
They've given you a number.
And taken away your name.

My sugar walls
my sugar walls.
Where I come from there's a place called heaven

That's the place where all the good children go.
The houses are of silver
the streets of gold.
But there's more where you come from - my sugar walls.
My sugar walls
my sugar walls.
Blood races to your private spots

let's me know there's a fire.
You can't fight passion when passion is hot

Temperatures rise inside my sugar walls.

Let me take you somewhere you've never been

I could show you things you've never seen.
I could make you never wanna fall in love again

Come spend the night inside my sugar walls.

Take advantage
it's alright

I feel so alive when I'm with you!
Come and feel my presence
it's reigning tonight.
Heaven on earth inside my sugar walls.
Let me take you somewhere you've never been
. . .

I can tell you want me - my sugar walls -
it's impossible to hide.
Your body's on fire
admit it! Come inside.
My sugar walls
my sugar walls.
Come inside my sugar walls
my sugar walls
my sugar walls.
Come spend the night inside my sugar walls

My sugar walls
my sugar walls.

Looks like someones been drinking their Easter dinner.
Nope - just kind of bored. I've been stuck in the house for three days now. I am getting over a nasty sinus infection and hubby was asleep. The only thing I've had to drink is Juicy Juice. :lol:

Our Easter dinner is homemade chicken noodle soup. :ohwell:

Standing on the corner trying to hail a cab
You tap me on the shoulder
My heart about to stop it was fine
You ask me for directions you was going my way
I had no objections I couldn't be blasé
You were fine

The move was so electric
You were so magnetic
Just like in the movies
Just like in the movies

Thursday at the Plaza, Friday at the Ritz
You were all I wanted and we seal it with a kiss
You were mine

I felt your arms around me I was so secure
I knew that love had found me I knew it couldn't go
You were mine

We look so fine together
Love will last forever
Just like in the movies
Just like in the movies

Get yourself together
Love to last forever
Just like in the movies
Just like in the movies

I just found a picture dusty on the shelf
Gazing at the mirror smiling to myself
I'm alive

If is but a moment
Wonder where it all went
Just like in the movies
Just like in the movies

If is but a moment
Wonder where it all went
Just like in the movies
Just like in the movies

Just like in the movies
Just like in the movies
Just like in the movies

Well I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightning
When it lights up the sky
You know it makes me feel good

Well I love a rainy night
It's such a beautiful sight
I love to feel the rain
On my face
To taste the rain on my lips
In the moonlight shadow

[Chorus]
Showers washed
All my cares away
I'd wake up to a sunny day
'Cause I love a rainy night
Yes I love a rainy night
Well I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night

Well I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightning
When it lights up the sky
You know it makes me feel good

Well I love a rainy night
It's such a beautiful sight
I love to feel the rain
On my face
To taste the rain on my lips
In the moonlight shadow

Puts a song
In this heart of mine
Puts a smile on my face every time

'Cause I love a rainy night
Yeah I love a rainy night
Ooh I love a rainy night
Yeah I love a rainy night

[Chorus]

Sugar, sugar

She sits alone waiting for suggestions
He's so nervous avoiding all the questions
His lips are dry, her heart is gently pounding
Don't you just know exactly what they're thinking

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
come on sugar let me know.
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
come on honey tell me so
Tell me so baby

He's acting shy looking for an answer
Come on honey let's spend the night together
Now hold on a minute before we go much further
Give me a dime so I can phone my mother
They catch a cab to his high rise apartment
At last he can tell her exactly what his heart meant

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
come on honey tell me so
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
come on sugar let me know

His heart's beating like a drum
'cos at last he's got this girl home
Relax baby now we are alone

They wake at dawn 'cos all the birds are singing
Two total strangers but that ain't what they're thinking
Outside it's cold, misty and it's raining
They got each other neither one's complaining
He say's I sorry but I'm out of milk and coffee
Never mind sugar we can watch the early movie

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
come on sugar let me know
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
come on honey tell me so

If you really need me just reach out and touch me
come on sugar let me know
If you really, really, really, really need me
just let me know
Just reach out and touch me
If you really want me
just reach out and touch me
come on sugar let me know
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
come on sugar let me know
If you, if you, if you really need me
just come on and tell me so
