When I Was Your Age
Let me tell you sonny... let me tell you straight
You kids today aint never had it tough
Always had everything handed to you on a silver plate
You lazy brats think nothings good enough
Well, nobody ever drove me to school when it was ninety degrees below
We had to walk buck naked through forty miles of snow
Worked in the coal mines twenty two hours a day for just half a cent
Had to sell me internal organs just to pay the rent
When I was your age. when I was your age
When I was your age. when I was your age
Let me tell you something, you whiny little snot
Theres something wrong with all you kids today
You just dont appreciate all the things youve got
We were hungry, broken and miserable and we liked it fine that way
There were seventy three of us living in a cardboard box
All I got for christmas was a lousy bag of rocks
Every night for dinner, we had a big ol chunk of dirt
If we were really good, we didnt get dessert
When I was your age. when I was your age
When I was your age. when I was your age
Didnt have no telephone, didnt have no fax machine
All we had was a couple cans and a crummy piece of string
Didnt have no swimming pool when I was just a lad
Our neighbors mseptic tank was the closest thing we had
Didnt have no dental floss, had to use old rusty nails
Didnt have nintendo, we just poured salt on snails
Didnt have no water bed, had to sleep on broken glass
Didnt have no lawnmower, we used our teeth to cut the grass
Whats the matter now, sonny, you say you dont believe this junk?
You think my storys wearin kinda thin?
I tell you one thing, I never was such a disrespectful punk
Back in my time, we had a thing called discipline
Dad would whoop us every night till a quarter after twelve
Then hed get too tired and hed make us whoop ourselves
Then hed chop me into pieces and play frisbee with my brain
And let me tell ya, junior, you never heard me complain
When I was your age. when I was your age
When I was your age. when I was your age

Didnt I?

Didnt I give you midnight?
Didnt I give you the month of june
Didnt I make it alright
When everything was ruined
Didnt I say didnt i
Didnt you say didnt I too
Didnt we both say didnt i
till didnt we say were through
Didnt I try, didnt I cry
Didnt i?
Sorry that your mother dropped you on your head
Maybe her mother dropped her too
In the end we all get dropped
We all get black and blue
But didnt I always love you long
When time was short and the night was cold
Didnt I admit that I was wrong
When the anger was new but the fight was old
Didnt I say didnt i
till didnt we say were through
Didnt I try, didnt I cry
Didnt i, didnt i,

Wherever Would I Be
(dianne warren)
When my world is turning
When its turning upside down
When all I see is rain
When I think the night wont end
I just think of you
And I can see the sun again
Wherever would I be without you?
If I didnt have you, if I didnt have you
Whatever would I do now, baby?
Wherever would I be without you?
Id be nowhere, nowhere, Id be nowhere, nowhere
When the dreams I dream all seem a million miles away
When Im sure Ill never win
When its looking like Ive lost my faith
I just look at you baby, baby
And I got a reason to believe again, oh, oh
Wherever would I be without you?
If I didnt have you, ooh
Whatever would I do now, baby?
Wherever would I be without you?
Id be nowhere, Id be nowhere, Id be nowhere
Without you to love me
Just be wasting time
Going out of my mind
Wherever would I be without you?
If I didnt have you, if I didnt have you
Whatever would I do now baby?
Wherever would I be?
Id be nowhere, nowhere, Id be nowhere, nowhere, oh, oh
Wherever would I be? wherever would I be?
If I didnt have you, if I didnt, if I didnt, if I didnt have you, ah, ah
Id be nowhere, Id be nowhere
Without you, oh, oh

I Didnt Want To Need You
Baby, I never gave my heart to anyone, oh no
Used to think that love was a game
I used to make it just for fun
When we spent the night together
Didnt mean it meant that much
Now I just cant live without your touch
I didnt wanna to need you, no
I didnt wanna want you like I do
I didnt mean to fall
Didnt wanna care at all
I didnt wanna need you
Like I need you now
I cant get no sleep
coz I keep thinking of you all through the
Night, oh yeah
My eyes cant wait to see you again
My arms cant wait to hold you tight oh yeah
And when youre laying here beside me
There is nothing else I need
Never thought that this could ever be
I didnt wanna to need you, oh no
I didnt wanna want you like I do
I didnt mean to fall
Didnt wanna care at all
I didnt wanna need you
Like I need you now
Ive always been free
To leave when I wanna leave
But its not up to me anymore
I didnt wanna need you ...
I didnt wanna to need you, no
I didnt wanna want you like I do
I didnt mean to fall
Didnt wanna care at all
I didnt wanna need you
But I need you now

Standin In The Shadows Of Love
(eddie holland / lamont dozier / brian holland)
Standing in the shadows of love
Im getting ready for the heartaches to come
Standing in the shadows of love
Im just waitin for the heartaches to come
I want to run but theres no place to go
cause heartaches will follow me I know
Without your love the love I need
Its the beginning of the end for me
cause youve taking away all my reason for living
When you pushed aside all the love I been giving
Didnt I treat you right now baby didnt i
Didnt I do the best for you now didnt i
Dont you leave me
Standing in the shadows of love
Im getting ready for the heartaches to come
Standing in the shadows of love
Im getting ready for the heartaches to come
All alone Im destined to be
With misery my only company
Might come today, might come tomorrow
But its for sure I aint got nothing but sorrow
Now dont your conscience kind of bother you
How can you watch me cry after all I done for you
Now hold on a minute
Didnt I treat you right now honey didnt i
Didnt I do the best for you now didnt i
So dont you leave me
Standing in the shadows of love
Getting ready for the heartaches to come
Standing in the shadows of love
Im getting ready for the heartaches to come

Without your love the love that I need

How can you watch me cry
After all the things I done for you
Didnt I treat you right now baby didnt i
Didnt I do the best for you couldnt i
Didnt I do right by you didnt i
Didnt I screw you right now
Kept you in luxury didnt i
Didnt I do the best for you didnt i
Didnt I treat you right now didnt i
Didnt I do the best for you now didnt i
Im trying hard not to cry
You know my crying aint gonna help me now
Without your love the love that I need

You Didnt Mean Anything To Me
Skies were cloudy everyday nothing wanted to grow
We had our last chance I think I told you so
Every dinner was crummy nothing was on t.v.
I was ready to pack it up our heads were so achey
You didnt mean anything to me
You didnt mean anything to me
We got to get away another lawn to mow
We had our last chance I think I told you so
Every dinner was crummy even the ones for free
I was ready to pack it up forget the agony
You didnt mean anything to me
You didnt mean anything to me
Everybody was cranky even the maids were mean
We ran into a miracle there was beer in the soda
Machine every dinner was crummy even the ones for
Free I was ready to pack it up forget the agony
You didnt mean anything to me
You didnt mean anything to me
You didnt mean anything to me
You didnt mean anything to me

Oh! Didnt I Say
Hollow
Faces staring through my window
Sometimes
I can play a boy you might know
Station
Standing cold and old Im insane
Gender
Is uncertain just like my name
The lemon kid is my friend
But even he dont know me well
Oh thats too bad
The waiter is an old man
Who looks at me so sly and strange
Whats on his mind
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you
Queenie
From a doorway says you got time?
Panic
Not tonight if you dont mind
Oh no
My fear of streets I cover
Today
My room is home for hours
You can stay if you know your lines
But please take care
Ill suck your mind dry
Youll never guess
And you can never know me
Ill change if I begin to feel
Whats your name
Zero hero says Im no-one
He could be right but whos to know
Man from the sky
Oh well Im growing tired of this place
I think its time to change my face
You cant even try
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you
Oh didnt I say Im not one of you

Wish I Didnt Know Now
(toby keith)
I never ask you where your goin,
I never ask you where youve been
Ive never called and checked your story,
When you stayed out with all your friends
Ive never tried to catch you lyin,
I didnt want to know the truth
Id rather go on lovin blind girl,
Than go on lovin without you
I wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
I wish I could start this whole thing over again
Im not sayin its you,
You could never be true
I just dont wanna know how it ends
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hands
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Ive always said what I dont know
Couldnt hurt as bad as leavin you
Turns out I knew what I was thinkin,
It aint an easy thing to do,
Well I guess I should be goin
I sure found out too much to stay,
Please dont say your sorry
I might wait another day
I wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
I wish I could start this whole thing over again
Im not sayin its you,
You could never be true
I just dont wanna know how it ends
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hands
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hand
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends

Train In Vain
Ohh
Ohh
You say you stand, by your man
Tell me something, I dont understand
You said you loved me, and thats a fact
The you left me, said you felt trapped
Well, some things you cant explain away
And the heartaches with me till this day
You didnt stand by me
No, not at all
You didnt stand by me
No way
All the times, when we were close
Ill remember, these things the most
I see all my walls come tumblin down
I cant be happy, without you around
So alone, I keep the wolves at bay
And theres only one thing I can say
You didnt stand by me
No, not at all
You didnt stand by me
No way
You must explain...why this must be
Did you lie...when you spoke to me?
Did you stand be me?
No, not at all
Now I got a job, but it dont pay
I need new clothes, I need somewhere to stay
But without all of these things I can do
But without your love, I wont see it through
But you dont understand my point of view
I suppose there nothing I can do
You didnt stand by me
No, not at all
You didnt stand by me
No way
You didnt stand by me
No, not at all
You didnt stand by me
No way
You must explain...why this must be
Did you lie...when you spoke to me?
Did you stand be me?
No, not at all
Did you stand by me?

No way

Didnt You Know Shes Gone
(phil vassar, don sampson)
Said the cloud to the sun, todays no time to shine
Didnt you know shes gone
Said the rain to the moon, youre not needed tonight
Didnt you know shes gone
You can keep your magical moments we dont needem round here
Didnt you know shes gone by now
I thought youd have figured it out
Cant you please forget her and just move on
Didnt you know shes gone
Said the tear to the pillow, watch out Im ready to fall
Didnt you know shes gone
Said the pillow to the tear, that aint gonna help at all
Didnt you know shes gone
Why do you insist upon crying, whats the matter with you
Didnt you know shes gone by now
I thought youd have figured it out
Cant you please forget her and just move on
Didnt you know shes gone
Said myself to me, hey man why cant you see
Shes history, shes gone and she aint comin back
Said the mirror to the man, take a good look at yourself
Didnt you know shes gone
Said the man to the mirror a few choice words to myself
Didnt you know shes gone
Talk about a revelation, right between the eyes
Didnt you know shes gone by now
I thought youd have figured it out
Cant you please forget her and just move on
Didnt you know shes gone
Didnt you know shes gone by now
I thought youd have figured it out
Cant you please forget her and just move on
Didnt you know shes gone

No One Told Him
Hey listen closely
Listen while I tell you
Why he loves you
And what he misses mostly
Its pointless his pretending
Hes got a broken heart
A broken heart
That needs mending
You didnt tell him
You didnt want to see him again
Hes going crazy
Hes reckless
Without you baby
Hes helpless
Its deadly how you broke him
Hes a fool
Without you baby
Im not joking
You didnt tell him
You didnt want to see him again
Now when Im down
My friends they come around
And when Im upset
My friends they help me forget
But how can he forget?
He hasnt got a friend
cos no one told him
You didnt want to see him again
Hes all washed up and washed out
Without you baby
Every place he goes
Hes thrown out
Hes turned vicious
Hes malicious
Just goes to show how much he misses
You know what
He wouldnt tell me
You didnt want to see him again
You didnt tell him
You didnt want to see him again
I couldnt tell him
You didnt want to see him again
I didnt tell him
You didnt want to see him again

If I Didnt Try
If I didnt try, how would I know, how would I know
If I didnt try, how would I know, how would I know
Sometimes I think I must be crazy for doing this
(think Im never gonna win)
But how would I know its a losing cause
If I didnt try, if I didnt try
If I didnt try, if I didnt try
If I didnt care, nothing would hurt, nothing would hurt
If I didnt care, hope for the best, expect the worst
Sometimes it feels like my whole life has been leading to this
(wish that I could hide somewhere)
But how would I know how it feels to live
If I didnt care, if I didnt care
If I didnt care, if I didnt care
Sometimes I think I must be crazy for doing this
(you can never run away)
But how would I know its a losing cause
If I didnt try, if I didnt try
If I didnt try, if I didnt try

I Didnt Mean To Stay All Night
My love is drifting in a sweet dream
And my heart is beatin like a drum
And my words dont make a sound
And Im dancin but my feet aint on the ground
Chorus:
I am flyin, forever within your arms
Oh Im flyin, forever within your heart, I am flyin
I didnt mean to stay all night, oh no, but baby you hold so tight
I didnt mean to turn you loose, oh no, but baby you wont refuse
I didnt mean to turn you on, oh no, its heaven it cant be wrong
I didnt mean to stay all night
My thoughts are runnin in a race
And my mind is slippin into space
Cause your world is all around
So Im dancing but my feet aint on the ground
I am flyin, forever within your arms
Oh Im flyin, forever within your heart, I am flyin
I didnt mean to stay all night, oh no, but baby you hold so tight
I didnt mean to turn you loose, oh no, but baby you wont refuse
I didnt mean to turn you on, oh no, its heaven it cant be wrong
(guitar solo)
I am flyin, forever within your arms
Oh Im flyin, forever within your heart
I didnt mean - I didnt mean to make you stay, oh but baby you got your way
I didnt mean - I didnt mean to fool around, but baby you held me down
I didnt mean to stay all night
I didnt mean - I didnt mean to make you stay - oh no
I didnt mean to let you get your way
I didnt mean - I didnt mean to fool around - oh no
I didnt mean to let you hold me down
I didnt mean - to turn you on baby - oh no
To make you fall in love, I didnt mean
I didnt mean - to turn you loose honey - oh no
But you just cant refuse, and I didnt mean
I didnt mean - to stay all night, oh no, but you wont let go
I didnt mean - I didnt mean to make you stay - oh no
I didnt mean to let you get your way
I didnt mean - I didnt mean to fool around - oh no...

Long Title: Do I Have To Do This All Over Again?
Do I have to do this all over again?
Didnt I do it right the first time?
Do I have to do this all over again?
How many times do I have to make this climb?
Didnt i? didnt i?
Can I see my way to know whats really real
They say time can fix things by itself
I know lifes more than just some kind of deal
Wont you tell me what all, when my soul comes off the shelf
Didnt i, oh, didnt i?
Do I have to do this all over again?
Didnt I do it right the first time?
Do I have to do this all over again?
How many times do I have to make this climb?

A Simple Thing Like Cry
(nickolas ashford/valerie simpson)
If it didnt hurt so bad
If it didnt hurt so bad
Maybe I could cry
If I thought it was all a joke
And you were putting me on
If I could just make a wish
And this moment would be all gone
If I could see a trace of hope
Somewhere in your eyes
Maybe then I could do
A simple thing like cry
If it didnt hurt so bad
If it didnt hurt so bad
Maybe I could cry
Dont you know I plan to spend
Every moment of my life with you
Now youre trying to tell me
That my dreams just wont come true
Thanks for giving me a million reasons why
But it hurts too bad to do
A simple thing like cry
If I thought it was all a joke
And you were putting me on
If I could just make a wish
And this moment would be all gone
If I could see a trace of hope
Somewhere in your eyes
Maybe then I could do
A simple thing like cry
If it didnt hurt so bad
If it didnt hurt me so bad
Maybe I could
If it didnt hurt so bad
Maybe I could cry
I could cry, cry
If it didnt hurt me
If I didnt love you
Hurt me

Dont Know Why
I waited til I saw the sun
I dont know why I didnt come
I left you by the house of fun
I dont know why I didnt come
I dont know why I didnt come
When I saw the break of day
I wished that I could fly away
Instead of kneeling in the sand
Catching teardrops in my hand
My heart is drenched in wine
But youll be on my mind
Forever
Out across the endless sea
I would die in ecstasy
But Ill be a bag of bones
Driving down the road along
My heart is drenched in wine
But youll be on my mind
Forever
Something has to make you run
I dont know why I didnt come
I feel as empty as a drum
I dont know why I didnt come
I dont know why I didnt come
I dont know why I didnt come

Ill Remember You
Ill remember you
When Ive forgotten all the rest,
You to me were true,
You to me were the best.
When there is no more,
You cut to the core
Quicker than anyone I knew
When Im all alone
In the great unknown
Ill remember you.
Ill remember you
At the end of the trail.
I had so much left to do.
I had so little time to fail.
Theres some people that
You dont forget
Even though youve only seenm
One time or two.
When the roses fade,
And Im in the shade,
Ill remember you.
Didnt i, didnt I try to love you?
Didnt i, didnt I try to care?
Didnt I sleep, didnt I weep beside you
With the rain blowing in your hair?
Ill remember you
When the wind blows through the piney wood.
It was you who came right through,
It was you who understood.
Though Id never say
That Id done it the way
That youd have liked me to.
In the end,
My dear sweet friend,
Ill remember you.

Dont Bring Me Down
It used to be such a good thing
Such an easy feeling
I didnt know you were looking
Didnt know you were stealing
I was loving you when we were alone
But you had other ideas of your own
Word gets around
Dont bring me down
We used to have us some good times
Used to laugh together
It took awhile to realize
You were wantin something better
When we were kissin I closed my eyes
But you were lookin at the other guys
I played the clown
Dont bring me down
It used to be such a good thing
Such an easy feelin
I didnt know you were lookin
I didnt know you were stealing
I went and messed it up and fell in love
But you sure know how to make it rough
Youre still around
Dont bring me down

Tell Me I Was Dreaming
Tell me I was Dreaming
When I woke up this morning
And wiped the sleep from my eyes
I found a new day dawning
And suddenly I realize
Your gone
Tell me I was dreaming
That you didnt leave me here to cry
You didnt say
You dont love me anymore
It was just my imagination telling lies
Tell me that you didnt say goodbye
Im in a state of confusion
I hope things arent what they seem
If this is really happening
Just let me go back to dream
Your home
Tell me I was dreaming
That you didnt leave me here to cry
You didnt say
You dont love me anymore
It was just my imagination telling lies
Tell me that you didnt say goodbye
Tell me I was dreaming
That you didnt leave me here to cry
You didnt say
You dont love me anymore
It was just my imagination telling lies
Ohhh, Tell me that you didnt say goodbye
Dont tell me
You didnt say
Goodbye
