Gone Hollywood
Its just heartbreaking
I should have known that it would let me down
Its just a mind aching
I used to dream about this town
It was a sight to see
The place to be,
Where the living is easy
And the kicks can always be found
Its such a shame about it
I used to think that it would feel so good
But whos to blame about it
So many creeps in hollywood
Im in this dumb motel
Nea the taco bell
Without a hope in hell
I cant believe that Im still around
Aint nothin new in my life today
Aint nothing true its all gone away
Ive had too much cryin, seen too much grief
Im sick of tryin its beyond belief
Im tired of talking on the telephone
Theyre trying to tell me that theyre not at home
Aint nothing new in my life today
Im tired of walking from place to place
Ive yet to come across a friendly face
And now the words sound familiar, as them slam the door
youre not what were looking for.
Aint nothing new in my life today
Aint nothing true its all gone away
If we only had time, only had time for you
If we only had time, only had time for you
If we only had time, only had time for you
It was a heartbreaking
Now I ride in the big fine car
It was mind aching
Im the talk of the boulevard
So keep your chin up boy
Forget the pain
I know youll make it
If you try again
Theres no use in quitting
When the world is waiting for you

Killing Time
See that long line of people who keep standing in the rain
Lookin tired, gettin cold
And that signal light theyre waiting for, dont ever seem to chang
Killing time, aint it slow.
Watch them bending with the burden of the pennies that they save
Marking time, growin old
Slowly marching by the numbers to the freedom of the grave
Killing time, aint it slow
Thats the closest thing to living that theyre ever gonna know
And their good times aint no better than their bad
cause they think they need a signal light to tell them they can go
Killing time, aint it sad.
Dont feel sorry for those people who keep standing in the rain
They dont mind, they dont know
cause it never crossed their minds they got a reason to complain
Killing time, aint it slow.
Theyre not haunted by the visions that they never dared to see
And theyll never miss the dreams theyve never had
Theyre condemned to go on living in a penitentiary
For killing time, aint it sad.

Wrinkles
Gettin out of the tub all drawn up like a raisin
Showed my fingers to my daddy while he was shavin
Said look at my toes dad whats wrong with my skin
Will this go away, will I be normal again
Well he picked me up and set me down on the hamper
Wiped off his face while he gave me the answer
For the first time I noticed the lines in his grin
As he dabbed a little foam on the end of my chin, he said
Chorus
Those wrinkles aint nothin to be scared of
Theyre just a product of time and true love
Some are gonna come and go
Some are gonna come and stay
Son, youre still young, youre gonna be ok
Well, I walked down the hall, saw my mom gettin ready
For a long over due date, dinner with daddy
She was cussin those crows feet, didnt know I was listenin
Started talkin bout her younger years
And how much she missed them and I said
2nd chorus
Those wrinkles aint nothin to be scared of
Theyre just a product of time and true love
Some are gonna come and go
Some are gonna come and stay
Mom you still look young, youre gonna be ok
As I get a little older, Im startin to get a few
And Im sure I gave mom and dad at least one or two
Were all gonna have em, there aint no doubt
But those wrinkles in life aint nothin you cant iron out
3rd chorus
Those wrinkles aint nothin to be scared of
Theyre just a product of time and true love
Some are gonna come and go
Some are gonna come and stay
I still feel young, Im gonna be ok

Those wrinkles aint nothin to be scared of
Theyre just a product of time and true love

Girls It Aint Easy
(ronald dunbar / edith wayne)
Yeah, it aint easy
Girls it aint easy
To keep the man you love satisfied
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy
To keep the one you love by your side
A womans work is never done
Never stops, it goes on and on
You work your fingers to the bone
You gotta be home every time he phones
Sometimes the going gets a little tough
Seems like my best aint good enough
Keeps you losing sleep
Seven days a week, yeah
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy
To keep the man you love satisfied
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy
To keep the one you love by your side
To keep him happy
You must sacrifice
Be ready and willing
To spend lonely nights
Do what you can
Though he seems ungrateful
Love him so true
Even though he seems unfaithful
But when his hope is gone
And life gets him down
Thats when hell say
He needs you around
Hard to live with him
Hard to live without him
It aint easy, no
Oh, yeah, it aint easy
Girls it aint easy
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy
You got to favour him with understanding
When understanding is what he needs
We try hard to give them respect
All that we get is their regret
But when theyre in trouble
They need our love and care
No matter when we gotta be right there
In between the crying
Gotta keep trying
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy, ooh, ooh, ooh
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy, yeah, ooh
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy, no

Aint It A Shame
(graham russell)
Hit with the bug to run, you didnt go to college we can use you son
You look like the pride of your home town
But how can you hold out when your luck is down
(chorus)
Aint it a shame, aint it a shame, aint it a shame, aint it a shame.
Because Im too tired to run around
Meeting people from the wrong side of town
Looking for a place to live, Ive got no money nothing to give, listen
All you gotta do is look around for something thats new
Find a job thats stimulating, thats easy and Im still waiting
(chorus)
Ive stood in line and done my time
With nothin to do all day
Ive stood in line with all my friends
With nothin to say all day,
Ive stood in line and done my time
With nothin to do all day
Ive stood in line with all my friends
With nothin to say all day, nothin to say all day.
Got brains but got no drive
Moneys cheap, the roads are wide
All the good positions go too fast
I need a job I know will last
Ive got a job for you can you push that shovel can you swing that broom
Keep your head down and dont go slow
But dont forget to stop with the whistle.

Aint It Just Like You
Girl your bags are packed
And you aint coming back is written on them
Take these memories with you
Theyre just sad, and theyre blue and I dont want them
Oh youre not so sure that youre in love anymore
And I aint gonna beg you to stay
Aint it just like you to leave
Aint it just like me to let you walk away
I hold a tender place in my heart for you and you know it
Ive never said it out loud
Guess I was too proud to ever show it
We always thought some night that we might get it right
But that aint going to happen today
Aint it just like you to leave
Aint it just like me to let you walk away
Honey you must think my heart is a revolving door
The way you come and go as you please
I dont know if I should give up or try
Or get down on my knees
Aint it just like me to pray
Aint it just like you to turn and walk away
Here you are at my door
Youre wanting in, youre wanting more and its open
You win me over with that grin
So I let you on in, and Im hopin
That this time you might stay forever
But baby that just aint your style
Aint it just like you to smile
Aint it just like me to let you stay awhile
Oh you must think my heart is a revolving door
The way you come and go as you please
And I dont know if I should give up or try
Or get down on my knees
Aint it just like me to pray
Aint it just like you to make me feel this way
Aint it just like you to smile
Aint it just like me to let you stay awhile

If You Were Mine
I been waiting here for so long
Counting all the holes in my shoes
Youve been singing such a different song
I aint gonna punch you in the eye
Just cause you tell a crazy lie
Even so . . .
I knew how you would go . . .
Im always the last to know youre trying to love me too
Youve been wasting so much time away
Never seem to get through to you
Youve been lazy now its time to pay
Whos gonna be the one to say whos gonna make the move today
I wont stand by . . .
Asking you questions why . . .
Not while you say youre too shy to look me in the eye . . .
If you were mine
Id never need to wipe the smile from my face
It aint no crime
What wed achieve if we stayed in this place
You said once I had a hold on you
And I believed you first time around
But now you dont know what youre trying to do
So when you turn around and realise
Im not around to dry your eyes
Then youll know . . .
Its crazy to let me go . . .
Youre always the last to know
Im trying to love you too . . .
If you were mine
Id never need to wipe the smile from my face
It aint no crime
What wed achieve if we stayed in this place
If you kept your promise baby
Everything would stay the same
But I cant shake the feeling youre searching maybe
For another love to blame
If you were mine
Id never need to wipe the smile from my face
It aint no crime
What wed achieve if we stayed in this place

Ill Be Here A While
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while
Far is solace in the maddening pace
Sad state written on my face
Not a tight rope walk but dance
Uncertain game of chance
But Ill see it through in time
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while
And if a person place or thing can deliver
I will quiver with delight
Tempted by the hand that could
Blind my vision and sight
But at twenty years of age
In frolic and in rage
I will see it through in time
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while
But the dawn has come into the endless night
And everythings going to be alright
But at thirty years of age
Through frolic and in rage
All regressed and healed in time
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Said i, said i, said i, I will survive

No, I aint gonna work on maggies farm no more
Well, I wake up in the morning
Fold my hands and pray for rain.

That are drivin me insane
Its a shame
The way she makes me
Scrub the floor

I aint gonna work on maggies farm no more.
I aint gonna work for maggies brother no more
Nah, I aint gonna work for maggies brother no more
Well, he hands you a nickel
And he hands you a dime
And he asks you with a grin
If youre havin a good time
Then he fines you every time you slam the door
I aint gonna work for, nah
I aint gonna work for maggies brother no more
I aint gonna work for maggies pa no more
No, I aint gonna work for maggies pa no more
Well, he puts his cigar
Out in your face just for kicks
His bedroom window
It is made out of bricks
The national guard stands around his door
I aint gonna work, nah
I aint gonna work for maggies pa no more
I aint gonna work for maggies ma no more
No, I aint gonna work for maggies ma no more
Well, she talks to all the servants
About man and God and law
And everybody says
Shes the brains behind pa
Shes sixty-eight, but she says shes twenty-four
I aint gonna work for, nah
I aint gonna work for maggies ma no more
I aint gonna work on maggies farm no more
No, I aint gonna work on maggies farm no more

To be just like them

A lot of things to make you cry my dear
Aint you glad [aint you glad]

He-he-hey, aint you glad [aint you glad]
But aint you glad [glad]
Glad that shoes dont talk
Now, if doors could tell whos turned the knob
When hes away out on his job
If cars could tell whos been inside
And whos been taking you out for a ride
Aint you glad [aint you glad]
Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]
But aint you glad [glad]
Glad that cars dont talk
In a world of trouble Id be
If things ever told on me
My whole life would be through
cause Im guilty, how about you ?
If things ever talk that way
Aint no telling what they might say

Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]

Standing in the rain
Cab comes into view
Ask me where am I goin to
Running for so long
Been gone too many nights
And my heart has paid the price
This aint heaven
This aint the life bargained for
My reason for living
Isnt here inside this car
Girl I gotta get back to you
Chorus:
Cab driver
Take me home
Spent too much time away
Too much time alone
Cab driver
Take me home
Spent too much time away from my baby
I need familiar streets
To show that youre near
Feeling like a stranger here
Oh does the mirror show the miles on my face
Am I goin any place?
This aint heaven
This aint the life I was hopin for
My reason for living
Sure aint here inside this car
You know Ive gotta get back to you
Chorus:
Cab driver
Take me home
Spent too much time away
Too much time alone

Take me home
Spent too much time away from my baby

A kiss from your lips ... oh the taste baby
Nothing waiting for me but a lonely room
Ive gotta get back to you baby - soon

It Aint Easy
You make it all sound easy
Now youve tasted all my wine
I never wanted to hear the news
That youd found another man
But its hard to see
What you want from me
Its not easy to be in-between
Its now up to you to
Make the move this time
But it aint easy when you
Dont know where to turn
And it aint easy
But you take the chance
The final chance to learn
Yes, to learn
That it aint easy when you
Dont know where to turn
And it aint easy, so you take a look
Another look at life - look at life
cause it aint what youve got
In the palm of your hand
And its not what youll get
From another man
That will last you
The rest of your life my friend
Monday mornings waiting
Take a look at what you see
Make the most of your life
Dont keep the pages clean
Baby, now youve got this chance
Dont leave me out
Its so hard when
Youre in-between
What you need and
What may never be
It aint easy ...

Ooh, theyre red, white and blue
And when the band plays hail to the chief
They point the cannon right at you

Lord they dont help themselves
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no millionaires son
It aint me, it aint me

Ooh, they send you down to war
And when you ask them how much should we give ?
They only answer more! more! more!
