Hang
She grabs her magazines
She packs her things and she goes
She leaves the pictures hanging on the wall, she burns all
Her notes and she knows, shes been here too few years
To feel this old
He smokes his cigarette, he stays outside til its gone
If anybody ever had a heart, he wouldnt be alone
He knows, shes been here too few years to be gone
And we always say, it would be good to go away someday
But if theres nothing there to make things change
If its the same for you Ill just hang
The trouble understand, is she got reasons he dont
Funny how I couldnt see it at all
til she grabbed up her coat
And she goes, shes been here too few years to take it all in stride
But still its much too long, to let hurt go(you let her go)
And we always say, it would be good to go away, someday
But if theres nothing there to make things change
If its the same for you Ill just hang
The same for you
Ill always hang
Well I always say, it would be good to go away
But if things dont work out like we think
And theres nothing there to ease this ache
But if theres nothing there to make things change
If its the same for you Ill just hang

Shes Too Good For Me
She dont like to hear me sing
She dont want no diamond ring
She dont want to drive my car
She wont let me go that far
She dont like the way I look
She dont like the things I cook
She dont like the way I play
She dont like the things I say
But oh the games we play
Shes too good for me
Shes too good for me
She dont like the jokes I make
She dont like the drugs I take
She dont like the friends I got
She dont like my friends a lot
She dont like the clothes I wear
She dont like the way I stare
She dont like the tales I tell
She dont like the way I smell
But oh the game we play
Shes too good for me
Shes too good for me
Would she prefer it if I washed myself more often than I do
Would she prefer it if I took her to an opera or two
I could distort myself to be the perfect man
She might prefer me as I am
She dont want to meet my folks
She dont want to hear my jokes
She dont want to fix my tie
She dont even want to try
She dont like the books I read
She dont like the way I feed
She dont want to save my life
She dont want to be my wife
But oh the games we play
Shes too good for me
Shes too good for me

They Dont Make em Like They Used To
Its every young boys fancy
Its there hidden deep in the heart of a man
Its just a feeling
They wont ever understand
They know they gotta have one
A brand new model and its here today
And dont you know that shes made right here in the u.s.a.
(chorus)
Dont ever stop trying
Dont let her get away
They dont make em like they used to
I think theyre better than before
Its more than physical attraction
Keeps you coming back for more
Shes a home grown beauty
Shes born and raised with a mind of her own
And once you find her
Youll never want to leave her alone
Shes making you crazy
You cant live without her, shes here to stay
Dont you know that she lives right here in the u.s.a.
Chorus
They dont make em like they used to
Theyre so much better than before
Im so tired of hearing--(Im so tired)
Some people say--(what people say)
Everything is moving much too fast
Things were better in the good old days
Let them have their opinions--(let them have...)
Never gonna change their mind--(theyll never change)
They lived a long time ago
When times were tough
And a real good woman was hard to find
They dont make em like they used to
I think theyre better than before
Its more than physical attraction
That keeps you coming back for more
Chorus
They dont make em like they used to
Theyre so much better than before

Dont Hurt Yourself
Ive done some bad things
This I know
If I cant change things
Tell me so
It does no good to break your toe on the wall
I know youre angry
Thats all right
I said I dont care
Well, I lied
But I dont care who wins the fight after all
As long as you dont hurt yourself
Dont hurt yourself
Its bad enough
Dont hurt yourself
I wouldnt want to see you make
Trouble for yourself over
My mistake
Thats all Im asking so
Dont hurt yourself
Dont hurt yourself
I dont want to see you hurt
Hurt a single second for me
You burn your bridges
When youre cross
Theres nothing left when
You cool off
You cant go back so
Now youre lost like a rolling stone
It seems like trouble
So you hide
You keep it bottled up inside
til its too late and
You end up crying alone
And there you go

You Better Hang Up
Out here in the country where the weather gets so mean she thinks about the places that she aint never seen she knows that shes married but she cant remember why and she wonders what it might
Like with some other guy
And though shes hotter than an oven just to fill your lovin cup if a man answers, you better hang up
You better hang up you better hang up you better hang up you better hang up
Youre from new york city where they dont say no prayers anything goes and nobody cares and the country girl might thrill ya but you better pass her by cause her ol man love to kill ya for th

And though youre hotter than an oven just to fill her lovin cup if a man answers, you better hang up

Some Things Never Change
Some things never change
Hang your head
I saw the news today o boy
A thousand stories that weve seen before
Small minds play at some big time games
And everybody else pays
Make no mistake theyre on the take
They like to keep it that way
Some things never change
I saw the light today o boy
It come on flashing bright in red and blue
The man steps in with a terminal grin
Blue skies turn to grey
Young men die and children cry
Why is it always the same
Life must be eaten
Or at least bitten into
To get past the surface
The moment of truth
You know when its right
Its sweet deep inside
Its real and its better
That some things dont change
I saw the news today o boy
A thousand pictures of the lies we live
Small minds play at some big time games
And everybody else pays
Theyre on the take and they dont give breaks
They like to take it away
Some things never change
Hang your head

Just Hang On
When I was young
back when life was fun,
I recall the words my papa said.
He said to be a man,
you gotta try and understand,
there's one thing that you must know.
If you want to go far,
well, set yourself a goal,
and just hang on, just hang on.
And if you do this my son,
your gonna make it someday,
Just hang on, my son.
That's the only way.
Well it wasn't long
when I left daddy's home,
all alone with no place to be.
With a great surprise,
it looked me straight in the eyes,
a red guitar and the dreams of a star.
If you want to go far,
set yourself a goal,
and just hang on, just hang on.
And if you do this my son,
you're gonna make it someday,
just hang on, my son.
That's the only way.
That's the only way.
You'll be a star some day.
I say, Lord, let me hear you play.
Play on...

You Say You Dont Love Me
You say you dont love me
Well thats alright with me cause Im in love with you
And I wouldnt want you doing things you dont want to do
Oh you know Ive always wanted you to be in love with me
And it took so long to realize the way things have to be
I wanted to live in a dream that couldnt be real
And Im starting to understand now the way that you feel
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont love me
Well thats alright with me cause I have got the time
To wait in case someday you maybe change your mind
Ive decided not to make the same mistakes this time around
As Im tired of having heartaches Ive been thinking and Ive found
I dont want to live in a dream
I want something real
And I think I understand now the way that you feel
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont love me
Well thats alright with me
Im not in love with you
I just want us to do the things we both want to do
Though Ive got this special feeling Id be wrong to call it love
For the word entails a few things that I would be well rid of
Ive no need to live in a dream
Its finally real
And I hope you now understand this feeling I feel
You say you dont
You say you dont
You say you dont love me
You say you dont love me
You say you dont love me

Shes Gonna Change Everything
Theres a light shining on her window
Theres a great big guess breathing on her door
Shame its taken all this time
All these years to find out
Shes gonna change everything
I spend so much time sitting in shadows
I feel naked to the bone but I dont care, any more
Shame its taken all this time
All these years to find out
Shes gonna change everything
Oh everybody cant you see
What that angels done to me
Im hopelessly in bits
Hanging on to what I think I used to be
Somebody help me please
See this fool way down on his knees
Shes gonna change everything you see in me
Shes gonna change everything

She Wont Hang Her Love Out On The Line
Bill dees/mark mathis
She come from kansas city, lookin mighty pretty
Shes as sweet as kansas city wine
Oh, its such a pity, she wont wanna kiss me
She wont hang her love out on the line
No, she wont hang her love out on the line
A mystery to me, shes not what you see
Shes a strong, mighty woman who loves to disagree
If I could just talk to her
I know that I could fool her
But she wont hang her love out on the line
She dont care for nothin she holds onto her lovin
I wonder if shed ever change her mind?
Ill fall in behind her, hopin that I find her
When she hangs her love out on the line
When she hangs her love out on the line
A mystery to me, shes not what you see
Shes a strong, mighty woman who loves to disagree
If I could just talk to her
I know that I could fool her
But she wont hang her love out on the line
Id take her lovin, Id take her lovin
Id take her lovin anytime
I want her lovin, I need her lovin
But she wont hang her love out on the line
She wont hang her love out on the line
She wont hang her love out on the line
No,she wont hang her love out on the line
She wont hang her love out on the line

A Really Good Time
(ferry)
Youre heard enough
Of the blues and stuff
Youre pretty swell now
cause youre pretty tough
But I dont have to tell you
How hard it can be to get by
You never bothered
About anyone else
Youre well educated
With no common sense
But love - thats one thing
You really need to get by
All your troubles
Come from yourself
Nobody hurts you
- they dont care
Just as long as you show them
A really good time
All the things
You used to do
A trip to the movies
A drink or two
They dont satisfy you
They dont tell you anything new
You know I dont talk much
Except to myself
cause ive not much to say
And theres nobody else
Whos ready and willing
And able to know me - I guess
Listen to me
Im not finished yet
Theres something to tell you
That I cant forget
Just have a really good time
Theres a girl
I used to know
Her face is her fortune
Shes got a heart of gold
She never goes out much
But boy - when she does
Then you know
Shes got no money
Well, maybe a dime
But she knows what shes worth
And thats reason why
Shes gonna make it
Shes got what it takes
Youll appreciate that
Shes probably late
But I know
And you know
We all know
Shell have a really good time

Hang On To A Dream
What can I say shes walking away
From what weve seen
What can I do still loving you
Its all a dream
How can we
Hang on to a dream
How can it really be the way it seems
What can I do shes saying were through
With how it was
What will I try still dont see why
She says the things she does
How can we
Hang on to a dream
How can it really be the way it seems
What can I say shes walking away
From what weve seen
What can I do still loving you
Is it all a dream
How can we
Hang on to a dream
How can it really be the way it seems

Why do you come here ?
And why, why do you hang around ?
I'm so sorry, oh ...
I'm so sorry, oh, oh ...
Why do you come here
When you know it makes things hard for me ?
When you know, oh
Why do you come ?
Why do you telephone ? ahur...
And why, why send me silly notes ?
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry, oh ...
Why do you come here
When you know it makes things hard for me ?
When you know, oh
Why do you come ?
It was because
Everything that i did
I wrote it down
On the wall
You had to sneak into my room
'just' to read my diary
"oh, it was just to see, just to see"
(all the things you knew i'd written about you...)
And oh so many illustrations
Oh, but
I'm so very sickened
Oh, i am so sickened now
Still, it was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
Ah ...
Still, it was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
A good lay, ah ...
Oh, it was a good lay
It was a good lay
It was a good lay
Oh, it was a good lay
Good lay, good lay
Oh
Oh, it was a good lay, good lay
Oh, it was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
Good lay, oh
Thankyou.

Hang In Long Enough
The signs are getting clearer, clearer than you need
The writings on the wall, for you to see
You never thought youd ever get the taste
You never thought that it could be this good
Just tell me what you want and Ill find the key
Reach out and touch its all yours.
If you hang in long enough, youll do it
Just hang in long enough
Youre down on the ground, or so you say
Youd sell the hole in your pocket, if you could find a way
Dont ask me how I know, you dont wanna hear
Its been a long hard road, and the end is getting near.
You never thought youd ever get the chance
You never thought your break would come along
If you tell me what you want, Ill find the key
Just reach out and touch its all yours
If you hang in...
They always say
The best things in life are free
But you want to have everything
Well youre going to have to beg if you want it all.
So hang in long enough, youll do it
Hang in long enough
Theyll let you out, then pull you in
Playing hell with your emotions,
Youll feel like giving in.
So just hang in long enough...

99 Pounds
I tell ya shes a heart breaker
And you cant tell me she aint
Theres a little devil in her
Under all that powder and paint
And she can hang you up every night
And get you so uptight
Shes 99 pounds, I said 99 pounds,
Shes 99 pounds of some kind of dynomite
I tell you half a ton of sugar aint half as sweet as her
She can change and rearrange you
Till you cant tell what you were
And it dont even pay to fight
cause she dont know wrong from right
Shes 99 pounds, I said 99 pounds,
Shes 99 pounds of some kind of dynomite
And she may look like an angel
But shes made out of tnt
Shes a little bitty thing and she ? ? ? ?
Yeah but when she holds you tight
Shes some kind of outa sight

Therell Be Some Changes Made
W. benton overstreet / billy higgins
They say dont change the old for the new
But Ive found out that this will never do
When you grow old dont last long
Youre here today and then tomorrow youre gone
I loved a man for many years gone by
I thought his love for me would never die
He made some changes that would never do
From now on Im going to make some changes too
For theres a change in the weather
Theres a change in the sea
So from now on therell be in change in me
My walk will be different, my talk and my name
Nothin about me is going to be the same
Im goin to change my wayof livin
If that aint enough
Then Ill change the way that I strut my stuff
cause nobody wants you when youre old and gray
Therell be some changes made today
Therell be some changes made
The say the old time things are the best
That may be very good for all the rest
But Im going let the old things be
cause they are certainly not suited for me
There was a time when I thought that way
Thats why Im all alone here today
Since every one these days seeks something new
From now on Im goin to seek some new things too
For theres a change in the fashion
Ask the femine folks
Even jack benny has changed jokes
I must make some changes from old to new
I must do things just the same as others do
Im goin to change my long, tall daddy for a little short fat
Goin to change the number where I live at
I must have some lovin or Ill fade away
Therell be some changes made today
Therell be some changes made today

Babys Gone Shopping
Babys gone shopping
By: jimmy buffett
1988
There are ten pictures of marilyn monroe in my studio and I always fantasize while Im singing about being a chauffeur in the car as marilyn hits the stores on madison avenue and then she asks m
Go to mexico with her.
Babys gone shoppin shes looking around
Shes checkin out the clothes on the boys in town
Pick up this drop off that
Stares at her pictures from the fotomat
Oh she likes what she sees
But shes afraid of what she needs
She should be here with me
She should be here with me
But I dont make it easy, Im no day at the beach
Just an old road dog gettin harder to teach
Hang on this planet, hang on each twirl
Scatter my belongins all over this world
I get more wrapped up each day
Shes lookin further away
She should be here with me
She should be here with me
(horn solo)
Im no good at conversation (no good)
I dont want a proclamation (oh, no, no)
I just think that we could use
A little face-to-face communication
Ow!
Ive been thinkin, thinkin this through
Its time to stop all this selfishness both me and you
Ill stop from here, you stop from there
Well meet somewhere in the middle darlin I dont care
I dont want no more heartaches its time to put on the brakes
She should be here with me
I dont want no more heartaches its time to slam on em brakes
She should be here with me
Babys gone shoppin, she should be here with me
No more bar hoppin, she should be here with me
Now, I dont know but Ive been told
That city livin is awfully cold
She should be right here, here with me (he should be...)
Brrrrrr... (...here with me)
Babys gone shoppin, she should be here with me (he should be...)
(...here with me)
No more bar, no more bar, no more bar hoppin
Should be here with me (he should be here with me)
She should be here with me
She should be here with me (he should be...)
(...here with me)
No more bar, no more bar, no more bar hoppin
Should be here with me (he should be here with me)
She should be here with me (gone shoppin)
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-babys gone shoppin (gone shoppin)
Coda:
She should be here with me
She should be here with me (gone shoppin, he should be...)
She should be here with me (he should be here with me)

Queen Of Them All
When the day is dawning
Whos the radio
Whos the hand in your hand
Whos the one who knows
When youre on the ropes
Shes the one you can lean on
And I really dont know why I feel so good
But its happening to me so I knock on wood
Who can call you darling
Who can make you stand
Whos got all the answers
When things get out of hand
Whos got all the moves
Shes the queen of them all
And I really dont know why I feel so good
But its happening to me so I knock on wood
Shes the queen of them all
Shes the queen of them all
Walkin proud with her colors showing
Shes the queen of them all
When the sun is setting
Who will hold your hand
Who is always there for you
Who can understand
Shes got all the moves
Shes the queen of them all
And I really dont know why I feel so good
But its happening to me so I knock on wood
And I really dont know why I feel so good
But its happening to me so I knock on wood
