What Am I Doing Here
(Justin Hayward)
Pale the young squire who goes to fight
To die at his master's side
Living is just a dream inside
You ask me why he cried
"What am I doin' here?"
"What am I doin' here?"
Beautiful princess, fair and pale
Stares out across the sea
Alone in her castle dark and grey
Her love she'll never see
"What am I doin' here?"
"What am I doin' here?"
Tenderly bury the fair young dead
Place a wooden cross at his head
All the words you can say
Have been said
It's for you my tears are shed
What can be done, you won't believe
Listen and you may see
Everyone's dream is deep within
Find it and you'll be free
"What am I doin' here?"
"What am I doin' here?"
Tenderly bury the fair young dead
Place a wooden cross at his head
All the words you can say
Have been said
It's for you my tears are shed
Tenderly bury the fair young dead
Place a wooden cross at his head
All the words you can say
Have been said
It's for you my tears are shed

Doin' The Things That We Want To
The other night we went to see Sam's play
doin' the things that we want to
It was very physical it held you to the stage
doin' the things that he wants to
Doin' the things that he wants to
The guy's a cowboy from some rodeo
doin' the things that he wants to
The girl had once loved him, but now she want to go
doin' the things that she wants to
Doin' the things that she wants to
The man was bullish, the woman was a tease
doin' the things that they want to
They fought with their words, their bodies and their deeds
doin' the things that they want to
When they finished fighting, they exited the stage
doin' the things that they want to
I was firmly struck by the way they had behaved
doin' the things that they want to
Doin' the things that they want to
hey
It reminds me of the movies Marty made about New York
(doin' the things that he wants to)
Those frank and brutal movies that are so brilliant
(doin' the things that he wants to)
";True Love"; meet ";The Raging Bull";
(doin' the things that he wants to)
They're very inspirational, I love the things they do
(doin' the things that he wants to)
Doin' the things that I want to
There's not much you hear on the radio today
(doin' the things that we want to)
But you could still see a movie or a play
(doin' the things that we want to)
Here's to ";Travis Bickle"; and here's ";Johnny Boy";
(doin' the things that we want to)
Growing up in the Mean Streets of New York
(doin' the things that we want to)
I wrote this song 'cause I'd like to shake your hand
(doin' the things that we want to)

Doin It Right
(tom lavin)
Published by uncut music - bmi/procan
Doin it right, doin it right, doin it right, doin it right
The rock bands cookin and the drummers gettin down
Were doin it right on the wrong side of town
I know a place on the wrong side of town
The rock bands cookin and theyre gettin on down
The slot mans playin like his souls on fire
Movin like a rumour on a telephone wire
Go rev up your chevy, put your gas foot down
Were doin it right on the wrong side of town
Doin it right, doin it right, doin it right, doin it right
The rock bands cookin and the drummers gettin down
Were doin it right on the wrong side of town
There aint no future gettin magazine girls
Taken to the club with their hard lovin thrills
No time for tears, trouble and sorrow
Rock and roll like theres no tomorrow
Turn off the tube and put your magazine down
Were doin it right on the wrong side of the town
Doin it right, doin it right, doin it right, doin it right
The rock bands cookin and the drummers gettin down
Were doin it right on the wrong side of town
Doin it right on the wrong side of town
I know a place on the wrong side of town
The rock bands cookin and theyre gettin on down
The slot mans playin like his souls on fire
Movin like a rumour on a telephone wire
Go rev up your chevy, put your gas foot down

Doin it right, doin it right, doin it right, doin it right

Doin it right, doin it right, doin it right, doin it right

Watcha Doin' To Me (8 Track Demo)
Oh, love and affection rule
My heart is in the groove
Whatcha doin
Whatcha doin to me, yeah
Oh, I'm searching for the truth
Your missing attitude
Whatcha doin
Whatcha doin to me, yeah
Each time I see you smile
I hear the call of the wild
There's something in your eyes
The way you move I'm mystified
I know how I feel when I see you
I'm not so sure if it's bad or good
Right-side up is upside-down
Oh...oh, Whatcha doin to me
It's always in the touch
Sometimes a spark is not enough
Don't question me, Oh no
I need some grace from above
There's no place to run and hide
I see you, you're a perfect view
Cross myself as I cross the line
Oh...oh, Whatcha doin to me
Oh...woh...oh...yeah...Woh...oh...Yeah
I'm searching for the truth
Your missing attitude
Love and affection rule, yeah
Our heart is in the groove
A spark is not enough
It's always in, it's always in the touch
Whatcha doin to me.....

What Are We Doin' In Love
Kenny Rogers & Dottie West
(Dottie)
We're like summer and winter
We're not one bit alike
We're like satin and cinders
I'm definitely not your type
(Together)
Well, then what are we doin' in love
What are we doin' in a mess like this
What are we doin' love
(Dottie)
Why were you someone I couldn't resist
(Together)
What are we doin' in love
(Kenny)
Were like paper and matches
(Dottie)
We'll probly have our share of fights
(Kenny)
We're like roses and switches
(Dottie)
It's gonna be hard bit we've got to try
(Toghether)
So what are we doin' love
What are we doin' in a mess like this
What are we doin' love
(Kenny)
And what are we gonna tell all our friends
(Dottie)
You don't have to like someone
To love someone
That rule was made to be broken
(Together)
But if we have to say goodbye
To a life we've gotten used to
What are we doin' love then
(Dottie)
We're like sunup and sundown
(Kenny)
People say we're never going to last
(Dottie)
Like Uptown and downtown
(Kenny)
You like it slow but I like it fast
(Together)
What are we doin' love
What are we doin' in a mess like this
What are we doin' love
(Kenny)
What are we gonna tell all our friends
(Together)
What are we doin' love
What are we doin' in a mess like this
What are we doin' love
(Dottie)
You were just someone I couldn't resist

So that's what we're doin' in love

Doin' What Comes Natur'lly
ANNIE OAKLEY and FEMALE CHORUS:
Folks are dumb where I come from,
They ain't had any learning.
Still they're happy as can be
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally).
Folks like us could never fuss
With schools and books and learning.
Still we've gone from A to Z,
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally)
You don't have to know how to read or write
When you're out with a feller in the pale moonlight.
You don't have to look in a book to find out
What he thinks of the moon and what is on his mind.
That comes naturally (that comes naturally).
My uncle out in Texas can't even write his name.
He signs his checks with "x's"
But they cash them just the same.
If you saw my pa and ma,
You'd know they had no learning,
Still they've raised a family
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally)
Cousin Jack has never read an almanac on drinking
Still he's always on the spree
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally).
Sister Sal who's musical has never had a lesson,
Still she's learned to sing off-key
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally).
You don't have to go a private school
Not to pick up a penny near a stubborn mule,
You don't have to have a professor's dome
Not to go for the honey when the bee's not home.
That comes naturally (that comes naturally).
My tiny baby brother, who's never read a book,
Knows one sex from the other,
All he had to do was look,
Grandpa Bill is on the hill
With someone he just married.
There he is at ninety-three,
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally

Cloud Nine
(Norman Whitfield, Barrett Strong)
[B side of Youngblood YB 1017, 1970]
Settin' at home the nights weren't very pretty
I was born and raised in the slum-filled city
I left home seekin' the job that I never did find
Depressed and down-hearted I took to cryin'
I'm doin' fine, so very fine, on cloud nine
Listen
Father didn't know the meaning of work
He disrespected momma and treated me like dirt
I left home seekin' the job that I never did find
Depressed and down-hearted I took to cryin'
I'm doin' fine, so fine, on cloud nine
Let me tell you about that
Doin' fine, on cloud nine
Fine fine fine
Listen
Folks up there tell me
Said give yourself a chance and don't let life pass you by
You know it's a dog-eat-dog world
Woman it ain't no lie
I'm doin' fine, so fine, on cloud nine
I'm doin' fine, on cloud nine
I'm doin' fine, on cloud nine
I'm doin' fine, on cloud nine
Doin' fine, on cloud nine
Doin' so fine, on cloud nine
Doin' fine, on cloud nine
Oooh
Doin' fine fine fine

Doin' Alright
Yesterday my life was in ruin
Now today I know what I'm doin'
Gotta feelin' I should be doin' alright
Doin' alright
Where will I be this time tommorow
Jumping with joy or sinking in sorrow
Anyway I should be doin' alright
Doin' alright
Should be waiting for the sun
Anyway I've got to hide
Going back to where the skies are blue
Going home to find the one

I'm Doin My Best
Single six months yesterday
Thought I oughta celebrate
So I went down to grab a couple beers
And I got so drunk I ripped my pants
I asked the bouncer for a dance
I thanked him as he threw me out
I woke up at a Waffle House
With a shiner and a wild brunette
She don?t know my real name yet
Well no I ain?t over you
But I?m doin? my best
Every day and every night
Hangin? on by a thread
That?s stretched just a little too tight
If I can?t find some peace of mind
I?ll take what I can get
I ain?t doin? much good
But I?m doin? my best
I decided I?d get smart
And have a long talk with my heart
At some quiet spot outside of town
So I took my best friend?s Pontiac
I drove it like a maniac
Right into the reservoir
I guess we ain?t best friends no more
Just my luck a cop came by
Who I beat up in junior high
He said I better have a good excuse
I said I?m doin? my best
Every day and every night
Hangin? on by a thread
That?s stretched just a little too tight
If I can?t find some peace of mind
I?ll take what I can get
I ain?t doin? much good
But I?m doin? my best
Some day I just might join the human race again
If I can ever find a place to show my face again
Yeah I'm doin' my best
I said I?m doin? my best
Every day and every night
Hangin? on by a thread
That?s stretched just a little too tight
If I can?t find some peace of mind
I?ll take what I can get
I ain?t doin? much good
But I?m doin? my best
I'm doin' my best
I'm doin' my best

What Shes Doing Now
Last time I saw her it was turnin colder
But that was years ago
Last I heard she had moved to boulder
But where shes now, I dont know
But theres somethin bout this time of year
That spins my head around
Takes me back, makes me wonder
What shes doin now.
(chorus)
cause what shes doin now is tearin me apart
Fillin up my mind and emptying my heart
I can hear her call each time the cold wind blows
And I wonder if she knows what shes doin now.
Just for laughs, I dialed her old number
But no one knew her name
Hung up the phone, sat there and wondered
If shed ever done the same
I took a walk in the evenin wind
To clear my head somehow
But tonight I lie here thinkin
Whats she doin now?

Take me to the fair, dont know anywhere

Lets, go to the fair
Well walk hand in hand, through tomorrow land
Only you and me

While were doin it all

Crush me in the crowds, Ill be in the clouds
Honey I dont care
Take me there by sleigh
Go, lets get a bite, anywhere you like
But take me to the fair

Im Alright
Well its been a long time glad to see your face
I knew wed meet again another time another place
Cant believe its been so many years
Youd better grab a chair and a couple of beers
Lookin good in your three piece suit
You know I always knew youd take the business route
You were always the one to follow the light and you look like youre doing alright
Been singin for my rent and singin for my supper
Im above the below and below the upper
Im stuck in the middle where money gets tight
But I guess Im doin alright
Im all Im all Im alright
Its a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess Im doin alright
O- oh o-oh, Im alright
Got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess Im doin alright
Well we had a lot of dreams when we were younger
They thought we were crazy but we had the hunger
We kept a lot of friends skipped a lot of class
Been on top of the world and knocked on our
We lost touch, we lost in love
We lost our minds when things got tough but
Beatin time is a losin fight and I guess Im doin alright
Im all Im all Im alright
Its a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess Im doin alright
O-oh o-oh Im alright
I got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess Im doin alright
Well I guess Im doin alright
Well I hate to see this evening end
God only knows when Ill see you again
Just send a fax or send me a letter or give me a call that would even be better
Give the kids a kiss for me and say hello to the family
And tell them all my futures lookin bright
Well I miss em but Im doin alright
I said I miss em but Im doin alright
Im all Im all Im alright
Its a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess Im doin alright
O-oh o-oh, Im alright
Got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess Im doin alright

What Are You Doin In My Life?
Well you followed me all around new york city
Tryin to make people think I wanted you with me
I can only hope that they didnt believe you
I can t figure out why I got to deal with you
What are you doin in my life?
What are you doin in my life?
What are you doin in my life?
I didnt ask for you
I dont know how you got my telephone number
Probably some jerk try in to put me under
Some friend of a friend of a friend of mine
Baby who you tryin to fool when you tell those lies?
What are you doin in my life?
What are you doin in my life?
What are you doin in my life?
I didnt ask fo r you
Well this is all a little too much to believe
Youre puttin my name all around in the street
Honey where did you think this was gonna lead?
Baby will you tell me what you want from me?
Well youre the last woman in the world that thrills me
Now you got my girlfriend tryin to kill me
Honey my friends think that Ive gone crazy
Cant you figure out that you aint my baby

COUGAR PERFECT...by talile ali
WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE
SO I BEEN TOLD
GOT A LOT TO WONDER
GOT A LOT TO HOLD
YOU'VE BEEN ALL OVER
ANY YOUNG MAN WHO CARED
AND HE GETS HIS ROCKS OFF
AND HE LEAVES YOU SCARED
DON'T KNOW WHY YOU DO IT
NEVER UNDERSTOOD
THEN YOU GO AND TELL ME
THEY'RE NOT EVEN GOOD
YOU DOIN THEM PLENTY
YOU DOIN THEM LOTS
NUTS ARE DOIN MANY
SWEATY AND ALL HOT
THIS THE LIFE YOU WANTED
THIS THE LIFE YOU NEED
TO BE SPENT TOILET PAPER
STUCK UPON SOME BUMS FEET
DON'T KNOW WHY YOU DO IT
NEVER SAW THE CHARM
TAKIN AND DOIN CHILDREN
DO BOTH YOUR PSYCHE'S HARM
MAYBE YOU JUST NEVER
THOUGHT BOUT IT MUCH
THEY STILL GROWING UP, BABE
WHILE YOU LIFE'S TOTALED UP
WHAT ABOUT YOUR DAUGHTERS
THEY READY FOR SOME SEX
THE BOYS THAT YOU ARE DOIN
ARE MUCH YOUNGER THAN THEM I BET
YOU MAY NOT THINK THAT THESE BOY'S
ARE MESSIN UP THEIR MINDS
BEST LOOK WELL IN THE MIRROR
AND LEARN TO KNOW YOUR KIND
I'VE MET YOUR OLDER COUSIN
ALL HANDS ALL OVER
AND BOY DID SHE EVER DROOL
SHE KEPT TRYING TO FEE ME UP
WANTING SO MUCH TO NOT ENVISAGED AS CRUEL
BUT ALL I SAW AS SLIMY HANDS
AND A MONSTEROUS FACE THAT DROOLED
AND EYES ALL ROVING AND TRAGIC IN
WANTING MORE FROM LIFE THAN WHAT SHE WAS DUE
I'VE SEEN THIS FACE ON PERVERTS
WORKING IN THE PARK A LOT
OR RIDING ON THE BUS LEERING
SAYING 'LET ME SUCK IT WHILE IT'S HOT'
YOU CAN'T STOP BEING SO EASY
AND BUMPING TO YOUR OWN BAD DESIGN
ONE DAY YOU'LL BE FOUND BLEEDING
OR LYING BEHIND SO HIGHWAY SIGN
HANDSOME, COOL, COLLECTED
THE KID WITH THE SO WARPED HEAD
YOU WERE JUST BEING HORNY
HE WAS JUST SEEING YOU DEAD

What Am I Doin' Here
What am I doin' here
Alone in this lonely house
This house that we dreamed about
This house we shared till you walked out
What am I doing here
This place ain't no good for me
It just brings back memories
And the last thing I need is memories
I should be movin' on
What am I doin' here
Now that you've really gone
Why can't I dry these tears
But oh, the years we had
Here in this house that we both loved so madly
I've never been like this
Just livin' in yesterdays
But there's so much I miss
And so much that I still can't face
If there's a chance for me
I just can't see it now
All I see is what can't be
And all I see is no way out
I should be movin' on
What am I doin' here
Now that you've really gone
Why can't I dry these tears
But oh, the years we had
Here in this house that we both loved so madly
What am I doing here
I should be movin' on
What am I doing here
What am I doing here

Rockin' The Paradise (Tokyo 2000)
Tonights the night we'll make history,
As sure as dogs can fly.
And i'll take any risk,
To tie back the hands of time.
And stay with you here, all night
So take your seats,
And don't be late.
Cuz we need your spirits high,
To turn on these theater lights.
Brighten the darkest skies...
Here at the Para--------DISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey whatcha doin' tonight?
(whatcha doin', whatcha doin')
Have you heard that the worlds gone crazy?
Young Americans listen when I say,
There's people puttin' us down.
I know the sayin' that we've gone lazy.
To tell ya the truth we've all seen better days.
Don't need no fast buck, lame duck, profits for fun.
Quick, trick plans, take the money and run.
We need long term slow burn gettin' it done
And some straight talkin', hard workin', son of a gun!!
So, whatcha doin' tonight?
(whatcha doin, whatcha doin)
I got faith in our generation.
Let's stick together and futurize our attitudes.
I ain't lookin' to fight.
But I know with determination.
We can challenge the schemers who cheat all the rules.
Come on and take pride,
Be wise in spottin' the fools.
Big shots, crack pots, bending the rules.
A fair shot here for me and for you.
Knowing that we can't lose!!
And we'll be
Rockin' in Paradise!,
Rockin' the Paradise tonight!,
Rockin' in Paradise!,
Rockin' the Paradise tonight, tonight...TONIGHT!!
(Guitar solo)
Come on and take pride,
Be wise in spottin' the fools.
Big shots, crack pots, bending the rules.
A fair shot here for me and for you.
Knowing that we can't lose!!
And we'll be,
Rockin' in Paradise!,
Rockin' the Paradise tonight!, (You know we're Rockin' The Paradise!!)
Rockin' in Paradise!,
Rockin' the Paradise tonight!,
Rockin' in paradise! (We're Rockin' in paradise!!!)
Rockin' the paradise tonight!

Why The Tears I Shed?
Why the tears I shed?
Hunger is around,
I'm well fed.
Why the tears I shed?
The fire has gone out,
Warm is my bed.
Why the tears I shed?
Love is without sense,
On me lies her head.
Why the tears I shed?
The living is on alms,
Aplenty is my bread.
Why the tears I shed?
Life seeks mercy,
More blessed is the dead.

All Things Considered
All things considered I'm doin' just fine even though
You left a hole the size of Texas deep inside of my heart
The way I feel I should be losing my mind
But all things considered
I'm doin just fine
Woke up this morning to the sound of you slammin' the door
I got served a piece of paper for breakfast that said
You don't live here no more
And the dog won't let me pet him, he just lays around
And growls at my feet
And the paper boy forgot me again
I should have stayed in bed asleep
All things considered I'm doin' just fine even though
You left a hole the size of Texas deep inside of my heart
The way I feel I should be losing my mind
But all things considered
I'm doin' just fine
Well my car broke down again right before it ran out of gas
Yeah my boss is still ringing in my head
One more time and your out on your... yeah
Well I can't wait till that five o'clock whistle blows
So I can sit in traffic all day
And end up going home alone
All things considered I'm doin just fine even though
You left a hole the size of Texas deep inside of my heart
The way I feel I should be losing my mind
But all things considered
I'm doin' just fine
All things considered I'm doin' just fine even though
You left a hole the size of Texas deep inside of my heart
The way I feel I should be losing my mind
But all things considered
I'm doin' just fine
