Shes Got Medals
Shed walk through the door and shed set up the drinks on the house
She played a good game of darts, and the men slapped her back
And never took her out
She wore a trenchcoat khaki
Her hobnail boots were full of holes
Shes got medals
Her mother called her mary, but she changed her name to tommy, shes a one, oh
She went and joined the army, passed the medical
Dont ask me how its done
They sent her to the front line
Fighting for her countrys name
Shes got medals
She got very tired of picking up girls
Cleaning her gun and shaving her curls
Then the enemy dropped a bomb
Survivors there were none
People say that when the moon is full and all the stars have gone to bed
You can see her ghost but thats a lie because the naughty woman isnt dead
She deserted on the previous morning
Replaced her uniform with dresses silk and green
Called herself eileen
Came to london town
Now shes settled down
Shes got medals

Rare, Precious & Gone
Cry baby boy, not tears of joy
The one you held is no longer your toy
Shes got her new boots and her make up on
You can call her your friend
But not your lover again
Shes made it clear as air that this affair is at an end
So what are you doing holding on?
Dont you see shes
Rare, precious and shes gone
Shes rare, precious and shes gone
She was soft in your hands, now shes shattered your plans
Im sympathetic but youve got to understand
You tried to squeeze her somewhere
She just dont belong
She was being sincere when she breathed in your ear
As long as there were stars in the night sky shed be near
Even angels get it wrong!
Wont you see shes
Rare, precious and shes gone
Shes rare, precious and shes gone
Its a subtle trap
Seeding guilt in her mind
But she aint taking your crap
This time
Boy youre out on a line...
Shes a queen among women, a child among queens
The finest thing that your lovesick eyes have ever seen
Shes a rose without a thorn
Shes a peach, shes a prize
A gift in disguise
Shes graceful and colourful and when she grows
Shell be wise
But most of all my friend, shes gone
Gone, gone gone!
Shes rare, precious and shes gone
Rare, precious and shes gone
Yes, shes rare, precious and shes gone
Shes rare, precious and shes gone
Gone, gone gone...

Now Shes Gone
Written by gerry beckley, 1977
Found on harbor.
Please believe in me
Though my love is hard to see
Now shes gone (shes gone, shes gone, shes gone)
Ill remain (shes gone, shes gone, shes gone)
But these tears (shes gone, shes gone, shes gone)
I cant contain (shes gone, shes gone)
So can I count on you to be my light to guide me
Right through the night beside me
Is it all right to count on you
Smile away these blues
I dont care if Im accused
Now shes gone (shes gone, shes gone, shes gone)
I dont mind (shes gone, shes gone, shes gone)
But, I got a feelin (shes gone, shes gone, shes gone)
Its all designed (shes gone, shes gone)
To make me call on you to be my light to guide me
Right through the night beside me
Is it all right to call on you

When Shes Gone
She has a light and a faith that wont die.
She has a heart of a lion and the will to survive.
She has a pretty young daughter back home
Wholl soon start to cry when shes gone.
When shes gone. when shes gone. when shes gone.
Now she spends her days with a mission to live.
She loves to laugh, and will offer a hand to forgive.
And she has a man with two arms open wide who will take her in when shes gone.
When shes gone. shes gone. when shes gone.
She fights through the pain and she smiles when she sleeps.
(smiles when she sleeps)
And dreams of the days when well all finally meet.
She often says that she lives in a world well never know.
We hope we never know.
We sit together and talk about our faith.
We play a game where well sing all our troubles away.
Though shes glad to be with me,
She knows darm well that her next life awaits when shes gone.
Oh, when shes gone.
When shes gone.
When shes gone, shes gone. shes gone.
Shes gone away. shes gone away.
Shes gone. shes gone. when shes gone.
Oh, no. (when shes gone)
Oh, shes gone.
I know shes gone. (when shes gone)

Rich Kid
Shes a rich kid
She wears diamond rings
Knows how to walk
Knows everything
About love, shes not too sure
What shes looking for
Fresh from the woods
Out on the street
Shes looking good
Looking so neat
She dont know if she should
cause she dont know
If shes bad or good
She dont care if it
Hurts her father
She dont care if it
Breaks her mother
She dont care anymore
She just wants what
Shes never had before
All she wants is love, shes ready
She wants love
And shes gonna get it
All she needs is love
Shes gotta have it, someone to love
All she wants is love, shes ready
Gotta have love, shell get it
All she needs is love
Shes never had it, someone to love
She was a school boys dream
High school queen
She had it all when she was sixteen
Stayed away from boys
cause she thought shed get hurt
Why did she listen to
Her mothers words
Couldnt go out
Had to stay home
And how she hated
Being on her own
She needs love like everybody else
Now shes gonna
Get some for herself
All she wants is love, shes ready
She wants love
And shes gonna get it
All she needs is love
Shes gotta have it, she needs love
All she wants is love, shes ready
She wants love
And shes gonna get it
All she needs is love
Shes gotta have it, someone ...

Oh, shes on fire
Oh, shes on fire
Hot to trot, shes a bit insane
Little bit of pleasure
With a little bit of pain
I got to be smokin
So I know without a doubt
Where theres the smoke
Theres the fire, so I gotta boot it out
Say oh, shes on fire
Oh, shes on fire
Only child with a hang down lip
Starve for love and you pay your chip
Little by little, catch enough to me
Shes more of a woman
And I thought shed be to me
Hungry girl, shes a city slick

Shes my flame, shes a feather my chief

Eagle When She Flies
Shes been there, God knows, shes been there
She has seen and done it all
Shes a woman, she know how to
Dish it out or take it all
Her hearts as soft as feathers
Still she weathers stormy skies
And shes a sparrow when shes broken
But shes an eagle when she flies
A kaleidoscope of colors
You can toss her around and round
You can keep her in you vision
But youll never keep her down
Shes a lover, shes a mother
Shes a friend and shes a wife
And shes a sparrow when shes broken
But shes an eagle when she flies
Gentle as the sweet magnolia
Strong as steel, her faith and pride
Shes an everlasting shoulder
Shes the leaning post of life
She hurts deep and when she weeps
Shes just as fragile as a child
And shes a sparrow when shes broken
But shes an eagle when she flies

Shes a sparrow when shes broken
But shes an eagle when she flies
Oh, bless her, lord

Out Of Sync
Shes out of sync
And everyone around her
Knows that something is wrong
Shes out of sync
Shes got all the symptoms
Of a girl who skipped a beat
Shes out of sync
A piece of ancient history
Shes a walking mirage
Shes out of sync
She entered through the exit
And never stopped to think
Shes out of sync shes a half step behind
Shes out of luck her body split from her mind
Shes out of orbit shell never connect
Shell run out of time before she accepts shes out of sync
Shes out of sync ---- (sync)
Shes out of sync ---- (sync)
Shes out of sync
And everybody senses
Theres a distance to keep
Shes out of sync
And totally committed
To living in a dark age
Shes out of sync
Shes constantly undoing
Whats already been done
Shes out of sync
Trapped in a silent movie
And shes on the brink
Shes out of focus
Shes a warp in time
Shes discontinued
A break in the line

So Unusual (Live @ Java Joes - 06.27.02)
This is the most unusual story, of a most unusual girl
she stood painting my picture, of a most unusual world
she can crawl out of frame while shes hanging on the wall
and shes calling my name
shes not so usual
shes most unusual
shes not so usual
shes so unusual
shes mostly a ghost, the way she watches over me
she complains when i smoke, but then you do the same to me
shes controlling my brain activity, knowing when i go to sleep
she'll catch you when I'm falling hard
shes so unusual
shes not so usual
shes not so usual
shes so unusual
shes not so hooked on the drugs like i thought she was
and never sucking on the lime, and hardly sipping on the wine
and dispite of her biopolar rollercoastering
i think i can try, she'll keep me singing differently
and its fine cause shes with me now, most all of the time
trying to saving the light, thinking not of her own
and always kissing me goodnight when i just need to be alone
shes so sweet, so discrete, shes exactly what i need
not even make believe
shes not so usual
so unusual
shes not so usual
so unusual
not so usual, and not to practical either
but shes not so mystical, but not to magical either
but shes not so outta control, and not so used to the flow
shes not so usual
nah, shes a natural
ohhh, shes not so usual
shes most unusual
shes so unusual
shes so unusual
shes gonna use me ohhh

Shes Gonna Love Me
Shes gonna love me like you never could
Shes gonna treat me like you never would
Shes gonna love me live Ive never been loved before
You should have grabbed me when you had your chance
You got a little bit too big for your own leather pants
I could have told you from the start
No ones ever taken better care of your heart
Now your gone, I dont care
Ive got a woman who will always be there, and...
Shes gonna love me like you never could
Shes gonna treat me like you never would
Shes gonna love me like Ive never been loved before
Shes gonna spin me like a roulette wheel
Shes gonna treat me like Im her last meal
Shes gonna love me and I keep comin back for more
Ooh shes gonna love me
Ooh shes gonna love me
Shes gonna love me like her favorite hobby
Throw me down and love me in the hotel lobby
You figured Id just always be around
You thought we were so hot, you could have any boy in town
Baby Ive got some news for you
Ive got places to go and people to do
Yeah, I cried a little when you said good-bye
But now my eyes are filled with tears of joy, cus-
Shes gonna love me like you never could
Shes gonna treat me like you never would

Shes Got The Answer
(graham russell, michael sherwood, larry antonio, jimmy haun)
Shes the kind of girl that you need to touch
Follow through fire
She can take it all, always gives so much
And laughs til she cries
If shes far away I can feel her still
Soothing my soul
When shes here with me and Im not myself
She takes control
Shes got direction, shes got devotion
Shes got the rhythm, such an emotional woman
Shes got the movement
Shes got the power
In comes the sunlight when all the flowers unfold
I know
Shes got the answer--shes got the answer
Shes got the answer
Shes got the answer
I am here for you, you are near to me
A mother or a child
Generations passing through you
Awake in the wild
Shes got direction, shes got devotion
Shes got the rhythm, such an emotional woman
Shes got the movement, shes got the power
In comes the sunlight, and when all the flowers unfold
I know
Shes got the answer--shes got the answer
Shes got the answer
Shes got the answer
Shes got direction, shes got devotion
Shes got the rhythm, such an emotional woman
Shes got the movement, shes got the power
In comes the sunlight, and when all the flowers unfold
Shes got the answer-- shes got the answer
Shes got the answer

Close Enough To Perfect
Sometimes her morning coffees way too strong
And sometimes what she says she says all wrong
Heaven knows shes not an angel but shed really like to be
And thats close enough to perfect for me
Now shes been known to wear her pants too tight
And drinking puts her out just like a light
Right or wrong shes there beside me like only a friend
Would be
And thats close enough to perfect for me
Chorus:
She kisses me each morning
And smiles her sleepy smile
And she dont have to say it
I can see it in her eyes
Dont you worry about my woman
Or what you think she ought to be
cause shes close enough to perfect for me
Well sometimes she gets down and starts to cry
But then again a woman has a right
Shes everything I ever wanted and all Ill ever need
Shes close enough to perfect for me

No Name Girl
I got a girl that aint got no home
She aint very fat just skin and bones
She dont cast no shadow because shes so thin
Never knows where she going but she knows were shes been
She never knows where she going but she knows were shes been
The girl I love aint got no name
But I love her just the same
Shes a little peculiar but it aint no sin
She never know where she going but know were shes been
She never knows where she going but she knows were shes been
Never know where she going but she knows were shes been

Shes six feet tall and got long black hair
Runs around in her sack dress but I dont care
She got great big feet with size number 10
She never know where she going but know were shes been
She never know where she going but know were shes been

Shes So Strange
Shes so strange
And she wore a black moustache
And she pilfered all the petty cash
She went to birmingham
Shell soon be in the can
Shes so cruel
And she knew just what to do
And while the cats were all sniffing glue
They played their silly games
And now theyll take the blame
What shed done
And she didnt know quite what she did
And they told her that she better had
So now she starts to cry
Without a reason why
Shes so poor
And only now shes looking back
She sees her story on a paperback
What will become of her
Theres not much left for her

Mama Laye

Published by slalom publishing co. - bmi
In a foreign land beneath a foreign sky
They speak of mama laye
They dont believe she died
The people raise their eyes
They said theyd sing a song
They ask the spirit world
Cause they know where shes gone
Shes never far away, mama laye, no
Shes never far away, mama laye, no, no no
They say she never sleeps
She never close her eyes
She speaks the magic tongue
Shes slowly hypnotized
Shes never far away, mama laye, no
Shes never far away, mama laye, no, no no
Shes never far away, mama laye, no
Shes never far away, mama laye, mama laye
They are as grains of sand
And then they are as one
They pray to mama laye
The father, mother, son
They say shes never far away, mama laye, no
Shes never far away, mama laye, no
Shes never far away, mama laye, no, no no
Shes never far away, mama laye, mama laye

Woman In Love
I dont know why its the way of the world
But meanwhile....
Youve seen her sway when she walks down the street
Look at her eyes see the glow in her cheeks
It aint no secret she cant hide it away
Theres someone special shes the dish of the day
Shes a woman in love
Shes a woman in her prime
(shes a woman in love)
Look at her face its a picture
Shes a woman in love
Shes a woman
This chemistry youll never find in a book
No ectochromes gonna capture this look
These mixed emos make your senses to reel
Youve got to be there to feel what she feels
Shes a woman in love
Shes a woman in her prime
(shes a woman in love)
Look at her face its a picture
Shes a woman in love
Shes a woman
Why should a woman in all innocence
Be the one to inspire looks that kill
I dont know
I dont know why its the way of the world
Some will win, some will lose
But she cant tell
This kind of beauty comes from within
Shouldnt be allowed yeh its really a sin
Youd sell your soul for a night in her bed
Youre far too late boy Ive already said
Shes a woman in love
Shes a woman in her prime
(shes a woman in love)
Look at her face its a picture
Shes a woman in love
Shes a woman

Shes sun and rain, shes fire and ice
A little crazy but its nice
And when she gets mad, you best leave her alone
cause shell rage just like a river
Then shell beg you to forgive her
Shes every woman that Ive ever known.
Shes so new york and then l.a.
And every town along the way
Shes every place that Ive never been
Shes makin love on rainy nights
Shes a stroll through christmas lights
And shes everything I want to do again.
It needs no explanation
cause it all makes perfect sense
For when it comes down to temptation
Shes on both sides of the fence.
No it needs no explanation
cause it all makes perfect sense
When it comes down to temptation
Shes on both sides of the fence.

Shes so unpredictable
Oh but even at her worst it aint that bad
Shes as real as real can be
And shes every fantasy

Moving In With Rico
There were tears in her eyes when she gave me the news last night
I tried to disguise all the hurt that I felt inside
She said shed always like to be my friend
Ooh, what could I say - this was the end
Shes moving in with rico, everybodys hero
Shes moving in with rico and she dont need me no more
We stood by the door and she put her hand in mine
Could have fell through the floor when we said our last goodbye
I just stood and watched her walk away
The love of my life is leaving today
Shes moving in with rico, everybodys hero
Shes moving in with rico and she dont love me no more
Suddenly, she was gone
How sad it feels to be alone
Now theres a stranger in my shoes
Some you win, and some you lose
Na na-na na na-na na na-na na na na
Na na-na na na-na na na-na na na na
She said shed always like to be my friend
Ooh, what could I say - is this the end
Shes moving in with rico, everybodys hero
Shes moving in with rico and she dont need me no more
