Here Comes That Rainbow Again
The scene was a small roadside cafe
The waitress was sweepin the floor
Two truck-drivers drinkin their coffee
And two okie-kids by the door
How much are them candies, they asked her
How much have you got, she replied
Weve only a penny between us
Thems two for a penny, she lied
Chorus:
And the daylight grew heavy with thunder
And the smell of the rain on the wind
Aint it just like a human
Here comes that rainbow again
One truckdriver called to the waitress
After the kids went outside
Them candies aint two for a penny
So whats it to you, she replied
In silence they finished their coffee
Got up and nodded godbye
She called, hey, you left too much money
So whats it to you, they replied
Chorus:
And the daylight grew heavy with thunder
And the smell of the rain on the wind
Aint it just like a human
Here comes that rainbow again

Heavy Rain
Heavy rain, lightning too
Heavy rain, when Im with you
Seems like a thousand years
Since we both felt free
Weve seen a million faces
All staring at you and me
But just like humphrey bogart said
Before he passed out on his bed
Heres looking at you kid
And the rocky road ahead
Heavy rain, lightning too
Heavy rain when Im with you
You know the thunder comes like a lions roar
But it leaves me now
When you walk out the door
Listen to that northern wind
Its singing a sad old song
A melody so sick and tired
Been blowing much too long
Aint it time to feel the weather change
You know its overdue
Love is gone, we cant go on
Pretending old is new
Rain down
And the daylight comes
As a sweet surprise
Heavy rain
Filling up my eyes
Heavy rain

70s Scenario
In bed sittin and reading by the t. v. light
Stay away from the window, thunder and lighting
And the rain, the rain keeps fallin down
Thats something that hasnt changed
Yeah, theres something inside me, its quiet when it rains
At the end of the rainbow, there aint no pot of gold
And the light in the morning, hardly ever shows
Aint no easy living, everybody knows
And its all around us........
70s scenario
She called me a prisoner, in a prison of the mass
She said acceptance from the future, is freedom from the past
And I laugh, and say thats alright
Things really aint that tough
As long as Im still able, to turn the t.v. off
At the end of the rainbow, there aint no pot of gold
And the light in the morning, hardly ever shows
Aint no reason living, everybody knows
And its all around us........

Ode To My Penny
Ode to my penny
That shiny little thing
Not much of value
Oh, but wait, stop and think
Put that old penny
In a little glass jar
Save it for a day
When happy thoughts are far
Shake the little jar
And hear the small jingle
But that little bell
Can't always be single
When penny has friends
This are better
What I mean to say;
Is Penny's quite clever
Do you see it now?
Penny is always 'round
When your feeling down
Penny's here, so be proud
He pulls you out of life's dark cloud
And puts you in light's bright crowd
Ode to my penny
Whose always there
Even when
No one else seems to care.

Thunder & Lightning
I thought it was love
That hurt so bad,
But all of this time I was a fool being had.
Now its the last stop for you, baby,
On my gravy train.
Well, I dont understand
How I could be so short of memory,
How I could just leave my pride in the rain.
No more thunder and lightning.
Nobodys gonna wrap me round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Aint gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.
You played with my mind,
Baby, much too long.
You played with my head
Until all feelin was gone.
Now Im out of patience and money,
And my heart is numb.
You kept me in the dark,
But now I finally see some daylight.
Ive got a chance.
Im gonna run, baby, run.
No more thunder and lightning.
Nobodys gonna wrap me round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Aint gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.
Nobodys gonna pull this thing back together.
Its too far out of hand.
If you wanna give it one more try,
Try it with another man.
[guitar interlude]
No more thunder and lightning.
Nobodys gonna wrap me round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Aint gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.

And I dont know why, but Im startin to cry.
I aint got nobody since she left me.
And I cant figure out how Im gonna get by.

I aint got nobody since she left me.

He asked me if I'd take a penny for my thoughts.
A penny for your thoughts he asked,
and I told him the things on my mind.
A penny for your thoughts he asked,
I had thought then I'd be paid in kind.
A penny for your thoughts he asked,
and the closest friends we came to be.
A penny for your thoughts he asked,
I thought then the one he cared for, was me.
A penny for your thoughts he asked,
now rich with my thoughts he was.
A penny for your thoughts he asked,
I thought his reason was more than 'just because'.
A penny for your thoughts he asked,
he's made me rich with a broken heart.
A penny for your thoughts he asked,
now my life has a broken start.
Something Aint Right
(torney / spencer / snow)
Something
Something aint right
Something
Something aint right
Feeling kind of low inside
Longing to be by your side
See you there before my eyes
This love I feel has no disguise
But whats in a love when you feel so denied
I cant count all the times Ive tried
Something aint right
But Im never gonna let that something
Make me stop without a fight
No something aint right
And its been on my mind
Just a little too much
And bringing me down
Something
Something aint right
Something
Something aint right
Sittin in the dimmest of light
In my room with a view of the night
In the time it took for you to call
You left me holding onto nothing at all
Ill accept what I can
But I cant understand
Why you want it to end this way

Open The Door
By michael mcdonald and tommy sims
Were lost, baby thats ok
We may not always understand
We may not always know the way
We can cry and we can hurt sometimes
But we both know whats important
At the end of the line
Its not always the case that we know just what to do
But when it comes to me and you
Chorus:
Weve both been here before
So let love open up the door
What love will surely show us
Aint that what we came here for?
So let love open the door
Maybe its time that we hold on tight
In each others embrace
We might just see the morning light
cause when we touch
Its like a brand new start
Its there we find the music in each others heart
And we might just discover that we dont always see whats for real
Love is somethin that you feel
Chorus:
Weve both been here before
So let love open up the door
What love will surely show us
Aint that what we came here for?
It aint nothin new
Just a chance to finally see this love through
This love has one purpose (and)
Never asks for anything more
So let love open the door
Sometimes words only mean so much
They dont say how we feel
They dont keep us in touch
Its too late once we drift apart
All thats left are the pieces of two broken hearts
Chorus:
Amy sings:
Love is sweet, love is kind
Love will open up your mind
Let love open up the door
All that counts, nothin more
Love is what we came here for
Let love open up the door

I Aint Got Nothin But The Blues
Aint got the change of a nickel
Aint got no bounce in my shoes
Aint go no fancy to tickle
I aint got nothing but the blues
Aint got no coffee thats perking
Aint got no winnings to lose
Aint got a dream that is working
I aint got nothing but the blues
When trumpets flare up
I keep my hair up
I just cant make it come down
Believe me peppie,
I cant get happy
Since my ever loving baby left town
Aint got no rest in my slumbers
Aint got no feelings to bruise
Aint got no telephone numbers
I aint got nothing but the blues

Second Nature
By eric clapton, simon climie & dennis morgan
You walk into the room, you know whats on my mind.
You know just how to reach me, baby, without even trying.
Dont need no one to tell me what this is leading to,
cause something deep inside of me is dragging me to you.
So roll the dice, baby, see what the future brings.
Sure feels like the right time for you to spread your wings.
Aint no one but you, baby, ever stopped me in my tracks.
Once this thing gets rolling, darling, well there aint no turning back.
Second nature, to look at what weve found.
Second nature, you know were heaven bound.
No need to think about it, you know were safe and sound.
Second nature for you to come around.
So take me to your heart, babe, and lead me to your door.
Take me in your arms, babe, never leave me any more.
Aint no one like you, baby, to stop me in my tracks.
All I know for this old heart, well there aint no turning back.

You must have heard my call,
Like rain to a waterfall.

Half penny, two penny, gold krugerrand
He was exceedingly rich for such a young man
Sad story, old story
Bring out the band
Another divorce just a few hundred grand
Half penny, two penny, back of the queue
Yes mister poor man this means you
Justice for money what can you say
We all know its the american way
Yes, Im gonna shake myself loose
Back home across the sea
Where I know that I will be free
Half penny, two penny, back in the states
You just couldnt take that african pace
Yes, mrs. cleaver your sons home to stay
We all know its the american way
Yes, Im gonna shake myself loose
Back home across the sea
Where I know that I will be free
Come here - hey angelo... whats happenin?
Hey, stosh, good to see ya
What the hell you doin?
Were tearing this old building down here
Oh youre kiddin me. remember when we were kids, and we used to come here every saturday afternoon to see a cartoon?
Yeah, I remember
Well whats she lost to?
Who knows- politicians, taxes...its a disgrace
Im not surprised, they make me sick. they dont make theaters like this any more.
Half penny, two penny, ashes to dust
The almighty dollar says in God we trust
Justice for money how much more can I pay
We all know its the american way
Yes, Im gonna shake myself loose
Back home across the sea
Where I know that I will be free
(I want to be free)
Yes, Im gonna shake myself loose
Back home across the sea
Where I know that I will be free
(we all want to be free)

Whats In It For Me
You want me to be your friend
Stick by you through thick or thin
Whats in it for me
Whats in it for me?
Youd like me to deal you in
Hold your hand right to the end
Whats in it for me
Whats in it for me?
You want me to be your friend
You want me and you want him
This aint for me
This aint for me
You want someone you can trust
You want love , you dont want much
Whats in it for me
Whats in it for me
You want my name on the line
I dont feel that way inclined
Whats in it for me
Whats in it for me?
You want me to be your friend
You want me and you want him
This aint for me
This aint for me.

This Old Road
Look at that old photograph
Is it really you
Smiling like a baby full of dreams
Smiling aint so easy now
Some are coming true
Nothings simple as it seems
But I guess you count your blessings with the problems
That youre dealing with today
Like the changing of the seasons
Chorus:
Aint you come a long way
Aint you come a long way
Aint you come a long way down
This old road
Looking at a looking glass
Running out of time
On a face you used to know
Traces of a future lost
In between the lines
One more rainbow for the road
Thinking of the faces in the window
That you passed along the way
Or the last thing you believed in
Chorus:
Aint you come a long way
Aint you come a long way
Aint you come a long way down
This old road
Say you tried to chase the sundown
And you let it slip away
And the holy night is falling
Chorus:
Aint you come a long way
Aint you come a long way
Aint you come a long way down
This old road
Look at that old photograph
Is it really you ?

Gold
Theres a mountain and its mighty high
U cannot see the top unless u fly
And theres a molehill of proven ground
There aint no where 2 go if u hang around
Everybody wants 2 sell whats already been sold
Everybody wants 2 tell whats already been told
Whats the use of money if u aint gonna break the mold?
Even at the center of fire there is cold
All that glitters aint gold
All that glitters aint gold, mmm
Theres an ocean of despair
There are people livin there
Theyre unhappy each and every day
But hell is not fashion so what u tryin 2 say?
Everybody wants 2 sell whats already been sold
Everybody wants 2 tell whats already been told
Whats the use of money if u aint gonna break the mold?
Even at the center of fire there is cold
All that glitters aint gold, no no
All that glitters aint gold, no no
Theres a lady, 99 years old
If she led a good life, heaven takes her soul
Now thats a theory and if u dont wanna know
Step aside and make a way 4 those who want 2 go
Everybody wants 2 sell whats already been sold (sold)
Everybody wants 2 tell whats already been told (told)
Whats the use of bein young if u aint gonna get old? (old)

Mama Told Me Not To Come
Want some whiskey in your water?
Sugar in your tea?
Whats all these crazy questions theyre askin me?
This is the craziest party that could ever be
Dont turn on the lights cause I dont wanna see
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
She said that aint the way to have fun, son
That aint the way to have fun, son
Open up the window, let some air into this room
I think mommas chocking from the smell of stale perfume
And the cigarette youre smoking about to scare me half to death
Open up the window, let me catch my breath
Some radio is blastin
Someones knockin at the door
Im lookin at my girlfriend
She just passed out on the floor
Ive seen so many things
I aint never seen before
Dont know what it is
I dont wanna see no more
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come (mama told me)
She said that aint the way to have fun, no (no, no)

I Aint Runnin Yet
(jamie o hara/gary nicholson)
Ive come to see its a pattern with me
To make a fast getaway
Everytime I get a little too near to love
Somebody gets too close
The next thing I know
Im up and gone again
Chasin the wind and the distant stars above
Ah girl
But I dont know whats been goin on
Since the night we met
All I know is
I aint runnin yet
Girl I can see when you look at me
Youre lookin for a sign
That somewhere in this heart of mine theres a place for you
But I want you to know
When those feelings show
Thats what chases me away
But tonight I just gotta stay and see this through
Ah girl
But I dont know whats been goin on
Since the night we met
All I know is
I aint runnin yet
I aint runnin away from the love I see so deep in your eyes
I aint runnin away and I cant even say just why
Oh I dont know whats been going on since the night we met
All I know is I aint runnin yet
I aint runnin away from the love I see so deep in your eyes
I aint runnin away and I cant even say just why
Oh I dont know whats been going on since the night we met

You tell me what you think Im feelin, you know why I do what I do

Weve got to talk it over sometime, these feelings wont just disappear
Im just gonna keep telling you whats on my mind

Through yours I wander lost and confused
And I feel like Im speaking in a different language
And the only words I havent used, are
