"Coupe De Ville"

"Coupe De Ville"

I got a coupe de ville
I got a bed in the house
Where you once lived.

I had a few cheap thrills
But they cost me a lot more
Than I could give.

I got a right
in this crazy world
To live my life
like anyone else
How long can I
carry this monkey around
All by myself.

If I can't have you
I don't want nothin' else
If I can't have you
I don't want nothin' else.

Well, I hit the wall
Woke up this mornin'
And I hit the wall.

Yeah, I hit the wall
Woke up this mornin'
And I hit the wall.

I got a right
in this crazy world
To live my life
like anyone else
How long can I
carry this monkey around
All by myself.

If I can't have you
I don't want nothin' else
If I can't have you
I don't want nothin' else.

"Cowgirl In The Sand"

"Cowgirl In The Sand"

Hello cowgirl in the sand
Is this place
at your command
Can I stay here
for a while
Can I see your
sweet sweet smile
Old enough now
to change your name
When so many love you
is it the same?
It's the woman in you
that makes you want
to play this game.

Hello ruby in the dust
Has your band
begun to rust
After all
the sin we've had
I was hopin' that
we'd turn bad
Old enough now
to change your name
When so many love you
is it the same
It's the woman in you
that makes you want
to play this game.

Hello woman of my dreams
This is not
the way it seems
Purple words
on a grey background
To be a woman
and to be turned down
Old enough now
to change your name
When so many love you
is it the same
It's the woman in you
that makes you want
to play this game.

"Crazy"

"Crazy"

Crazy
I'm Crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feeling so blue

I knew
You'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday
You'd leave me for somebody new

Worry
Why do I let myself worry?
Wonderin'
What in the world did I do?

Crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin' and crazy for cryin'
And I'm crazy, for lovin' you

I'm crazy for tryin' and crazy for cryin'
I'm crazy, for lovin' you

"Crime In The City (Sixty To Zero Part 1)"

"Crime In The City (Sixty To Zero Part 1)"

Well, the cop made the showdown
He was sure he was right
He had all of the lowdown
From the bank heist last night
His best friend was the robber
And his wife was a thief
All the children were killers
They couldn't get no relief
The bungalow was surrounded
When a voice loud and clear
Said, Come on out
with your hands up
Or we'll blow you out of here.
There was a face in the window
The TV cameras rolled
Then they cut to the announcer
And the story was told.

The artist looked at the producer
The producer sat back
He said, What we have got here
Is a perfect track
But we don't have a vocal
And we don't have a song
If we could get
these things accomplished
Nothin' else could go wrong.
So he balanced the ashtray
As he picked up the phone
And said, Send me a songwriter
Who's drifted far from home
And make sure that he's hungry
Make sure he's alone
Send me a cheeseburger
And a new Rolling Stone.
Yeah.

There's still crime in the city,
Said the cop on the beat,
I don't know if I can stop it
I feel like meat on the street
They paint my car like a target
I take my orders from fools
Meanwhile some kid
blows my head off
Well, I play by their rules
That's why I'm doin' it my way
I took the law in my hands

So here I am in the alleyway
A wad of cash in my pants
I get paid by a ten year old
He says he looks up to me
There's still crime in the city
But it's good to be free.
Yeah.

Now I come from a family
That has a broken home
Sometimes I talk to Daddy
On the telephone
When he says that he loves me
I know that he does
But I wish I could see him
I wish I knew where he was
But that's the way
all my friends are
Except maybe one or two
Wish I could
see him this weekend
Wish I could walk in his shoes
But now I'm doin' my own thing
Sometimes I'm good, then I'm bad
Although my home has been broken
It's the best home I ever had
Yeah.

Well, I keep gettin' younger
My life's been funny that way
Before I ever learned to talk
I forgot what to say
I sassed back to my mom
I sassed back to my teacher
I got thrown out of Bible school
For sassin' back at the preacher
Then I grew up to be a fireman
Put out every fire in town
Put out anything smokin'
But when I put the hose down
The judge sent me to prison
He gave me life without parole
Wish I never put the hose down
Wish I never got old.

"Crime Of The Heart"

"Crime Of The Heart"

When I think about love
Honey, you always
come across my mind
Is it the way that you hold me
Or the way that
you told me love is blind
Well, it's a crime of the heart
These things I'm
thinking to myself
But I can't forget you, babe
Just can't seem to
think of nothing else.

Got a woman at home
A family to feed
Three fine children
They think the Lord of me
Now I'm standing
at the crossroads
Looking for a sign of true love.

Well, I heard that song
Says girls just wanna have fun
Well, I guess I
bought my ticket, honey
'Cause it feels as if
the ride has just begun
Well, there's two kinds of love
One is wrong and one is right
But I can't forget you baby
Can't forget
the way you hold me tight.

I got a woman at home
A family to feed
Three fine children
They think the Lord of me
Well, I'm standing
at the crossroads
Looking for a sign of true love.

When I think about women
Honey, you always
come across my mind
Is it the way that you told me
The way you told me love is blind
Well, it's a crime of the heart
These things I'm
thinking to myself now
Can't forget you, babe
Can't forget
the way you make me feel.

I got a woman at home
A family to feed
Three fine children
At the crossroads
Looking for a sign of true love.

"Cripple Creek Ferry"

"Cripple Creek Ferry"

Hey, hey
Cripple Creek ferry
Butting through
the overhanging trees
Make way
for the Cripple Creek ferry
The waters going down
it's a mighty tight squeeze.

All alone the captain stands
Hasn't heard
from his deck hands.
The gambler tips his hat
and walks towards the door.
It's the second half
of the cruise.
And you know he hates to lose.

Hey, hey Cripple Creek ferry
Butting through
the overhanging trees
Make way
for the Cripple Creek ferry
The waters going down
it's a mighty tight squeeze.

"Cry, Cry, Cry"

"Cry, Cry, Cry"

Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry,
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry,
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry.

Well, old man river just keeps on rollin'
On down the line
Like my tears just keep on flowin'
All the time
Can't you hear me cry.

Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry,
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry,
Cry, cry, cry, cry.

Well, somewhere there's a rainbow for me,
I know it's my time
I am getting so tired
Of standing in this light
Can't you hear me cry.

Boo, hoo, hoo, boo, hoo, hoo,
Boo, hoo, hoo, boo, boo, hoo,
Boo, hoo, hoo, cry, cry, cry.

Boo, hoo, hoo, boo, hoo, hoo,
Cry, cry, cry, cry.

"Cryin' Eyes"

"Cryin' Eyes"

Who's gonna dry your cryin' eyes?
Who's gonna wake you up
to that big surprise?
Who's gonna dry your cryin' eyes?

You say that all your life
you've been a free bird
There's been nobody over you
And you always have to
have the last word
Because one feels better than two.

Who's gonna dry your cryin' eyes?
Who's gonna wake you up
to that big surprise?
Who's gonna dry your cryin' eyes?

You say your life's
like riding on a fast train
It's easy to see far away
But right up close
it's just a blurry haze
Flyin' by from day to day.

Who's gonna dry your cryin' eyes?

"Daddy Went Walkin'"

"Daddy Went Walkin'"

My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Pushing tall weeds
right outta his way,
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Hey now, hey now

Corduroy pants
and an old plaid shirt,
Daddy went a walkin'
just to feel the earth,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now

Old man crossin' the road,
You've got to let him go,
Old man crossin' the road,
He's feelin' fine

Daddy went a ridin' in his old car,
Took the dog with him
'cause it ain't too far,
Daddy went ridin' in his old car,
Hey now, hey now

Brown leather boots
and an old straw hat,
Daddy's getting wood
with the barnyard cat,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now

Old man crossin' the road,
You've got to let him go,
Old man crossin' the road,
He's feelin' fine

Mama's waiting
at the top of the hill,
They'll be laughing,
oh the stories they'll tell...
When he holds her
in his arms again,
They'll be sweethearts
with time on their hands

My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Pushing tall weeds
right outta his way,
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Hey now, hey now

Corduroy pants
and an old plaid shirt,
Daddy went a walkin'
just to feel the earth,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now

Daddy went a ridin' in his old car,
Took the dog with him
'cause it ain't too far,
Daddy went ridin' in his old car,
Hey now, hey now

Brown leather boots
and an old straw hat,
Daddy's getting wood
with the barnyard cat,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now

"Dance, Dance, Dance"

"Dance, Dance, Dance"

Never thought love
had a rainbow on it
Used to think a cloud
was a nightmare
That was up until
I first met you
Now I go around
hoping you care.

Dance, dance,
feel it all around you
Dance, dance, dance,
Never thought love
had a rainbow on it
See the girl dance
See the girl dance.

Mississippi mud
never touched her fingers
California sand
lies in her hand
Love her more than life
as the daylight lingers
Early in the morning
I'll be her man.

Dance, dance,
feel it all around you
Dance, dance, dance,
Mississippi mud
never touched her fingers
See the girl dance
See the girl dance.
