Goin Downtown
I could cool out
I couls hang loose
I could lay my head back in this comfortable noose
I could watch the paint dry
On these rented walls
Or I could run wild with the first wild thing that calls
Goin downtown . . . goin downtown
Goin downtown . . . to stand round and stare
And put people down for not being there
Goin downtown . . . and Ill see you there
But I saw you laugh
At that girl having fun
To show some emotion . . . just isnt done
You can look but dont touch
Thats as far as it goes
Youre only as good as the cut of your clothes
Goin downtown . . . goin downtown
Goin downtown . . . to stand round and stare
And put people down for not being there
Goin downtown . . . and Ill see you there

Down Town
(words and music by duran duran)
Deliver use from evil, we go with the flow.
Heres a little secret, I think you ought to know.
Providers and abusers, they know where to go.
With sundays refugees, from sunday tv shows.
(downtown!) all of the way down
(downtown!) all of the way downtown
(downtown!) all of the way down
(downtown!) all of the way downtown..
Lets sink imagination, past your wildest while (all of the way downtown)
Go way delow, below, below, is it such a crime?
Ahhhh the uptown, cant teach you how to live,
They dont have the time
cos where Im gonna take you, is a state of mind.
Ahhoouu
(chorus)
You better learn to use your heart
You gotta loose your money
You better use it all up
cos you cant take it with you when youre going down..
You never come home babe
You never come home baby
And youll never be alone, all of the way downtown
All of the way downtown
You never come home babe
You never come home baby
And youll never be alone, all of the way downtown (down, down)
All of the way downtown
You never come home babe
You never come home baby
And youll never be alone, all of the way downtown
All of the way downtown
You never come home babe
You never come home baby
And youll never be alone, all of the way downtown...

Fortunate Son
Some folks are born made to wave the flag,
Ooh, theyre red, white and blue.
And when the band plays hail to the chief,
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, lord,
It aint me, it aint me, I aint no senators son, son.
It aint me, it aint me; I aint no fortunate one, no,
Yeah!
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand,
Lord, dont they help themselves, oh.
But when the taxman comes to the door,
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale, yes,
It aint me, it aint me, I aint no millionaires son, no.
It aint me, it aint me; I aint no fortunate one, no.
Some folks inherit star spangled eyes,
Ooh, they send you down to war, lord,
And when you ask them, how much should we give?
Ooh, they only answer more! more! more! yoh,
It aint me, it aint me, I aint no military son, son.
It aint me, it aint me; I aint no fortunate one, one.
It aint me, it aint me, I aint no fortunate one, no no no,
It aint me, it aint me, I aint no fortunate son, no no no,

Downtown
Theres a place called downtown
Where the hippies all go
And they dance the charleston
And they do the limbo
Yeah, the hippies all go there
cause they want to be seen
Its like a room full of pictures
Its like a psychedelic dream
Downtown, lets go downtown...
Downtown tonight
Downtown, lets have a party...
Downtown at night
Yeah its right around the corner
Up and down the hill
When you hear the band playin
Its gonna give you a chill
Give your money to the gateman
Young blood in his eye
Hold on to your baby
When you slip into the sky
Downtown, lets go downtown...
Downtown tonight
Downtown, hear the band playin
Downtown all right
Jimis playin in the back room
Led zeppelin on stage
Theres a mirrol ball twirlin
And a note from page
Like a water-washed diamond
In a river of sin
Goin down like a whirlpool
When you get sucked in
Downtown, lets go downtown...
Downtown tonight
Downtown, hear the band playin
Downtown all right
Downtown, lets go downtown...
Downtown tonight
Downtown, lets have a party...

I could ride around the world in an old oxcart
And never let another girl thrill my heart
Aint that loving you baby?
Aint that loving you baby?
Aint that loving you baby?
Aint that loving you so?
I could meet a hundred girls and have loads of fun
My huggin and my kissin belong to just one
Aint that loving you baby?

Aint that loving you baby?
Aint that loving you so?
If you gave me nine lives like a tommy cat
Id give em all to you and never take one back
Aint that loving you baby?

Aint that loving you baby?
Aint that loving you so?

But Ill be kissin your lips before the sun goes down

Downtown people gotta work a little harder working downtown
Downtown they got to think a little quicker cause theyre downtown
Downtown the breaks are harder
Downtown the thieves are smarter
Ive got this place Im renting
It cost me next to nothing downtown
Nobody comes around telling me I gotta turn the sound down
Broadway -- down on the corner
The Bible screamer, the plasma donor
Buses, carhorns, ghetto blasters
The shouts and cries of the human disasters
Its all music
Its all music
Downtown
Its all music
Its all music
I feel alright when Im downtown
My feet are light when Im downtown
I cast my hopes on the human tide
I place my bet and let it ride
Im open wide when Im downtown
Downtown theres every kind of people walkin round downtown
Downtown theres every language, every human sound downtown
Downtown the nights are longer
Downtown the sights are stronger
Downtown wandering all around downtown
Its all music
Eight blocks south of city hall
The rats run free and the winos crawl
Darkness falls on the vast machine
Where the future stalks the american dream
I feel alright when Im downtown
My head feels light when Im downtown
Its all in sight when Im downtown
I feel alright when Im downtown

With A turn-around
If you wanna dance on the ceiling
If you wanna shake your money-maker now
If you wanna leave through the back door
Feeling fine but just cant take it anymore
If you wanna leave Im downtown
If you dont like sleaze Im downtown
Tell me what you need Im downtown
And everything will be ok hey hey!!!
If you wanna breathe in the background
If you wanna wait and see whats goin down
If you wanna soak in the sunshine
Call a cab and come and see me anytime
If you wanna leave Im downtown
If you dont like sleaze Im downtown
Tell me what you need Im downtown
And everything will be ok hey hey!!!
If you wanna go crazy
If youre dying to please
If youre low down and dirrrrty
Then come and get some of me
If you wanna leave Im downtown
If you dont like sleaze Im downtown
Tell me what you need Im downtown
And everything will be ok
If you wanna leave Im downtown
If you dont like sleaze Im downtown

Downtown
When youre alone and life is making you lonely
You can always go downtown
When you got worries, all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know, downtown
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalks where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
And go downtown
Thingsll be great when youre downtown
No finer place for sure, downtown
Everythings waiting for you
Dont hang around and let your problems surround you
There are movie shows, downtown
Or maybe you know some little places to go to
Where they never close, downtown
Just listen to the rhythm of the music that theyre playin
Making conversation while youre on the dance floor swayin
Happy again
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
And go downtown
Where all the lights are bright, downtown
Waiting for you tonight, downtown
Youre gonna be alright now
And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to guide them along
So maybe Ill see you there
You can forget all your troubles
Just forget all your cares
And go downtown
Thingsll be great when youre downtown
Dont wait a minute more, downtown
Everythings waiting for you
Downtown, where all the lights are bright
Downtown, waiting for you tonight
Downtown, youre going to be alright now
Get on, get on, get on downtown
Fade:
Downtown, where all the lights are bright
Downtown, waiting for you tonight
Downtown, youre going to be alright now
Get on, get on, get on downtown

Downtown Life
Music by daryl hall, john oates, rick iontosca
Lyrics by daryl hall, john oates, sara allen
Do it downtown in from the outside
Yeah, find the scene & work it brother
Moving thru sound
Citys like wild life
Overgrown & living undercover
Wound up so tight
We love the downtown life
Driftin thru the day
Waiting for the nite, oh
Downtown life. it feels so right
It keeps me hangin on
Velvet lou was a neighbor of mine
Now he walks the dog in jersey, brother
Yuppies in black doin white collar crime
Scared away the. local color
But they cant steal the nite
We love the downtown life
Driftin thru the day
Waiting for the nite, oh
Downtown life it feels so right
It keeps me hangin on
Downtown life
Drifting thru the nite
Waiting for the lite to come
Downtown life it feels so right
It keeps me hangin on
My baby knows shes got to go for this kind of life
'cause city love cant stand. to see the sunlite
Dawn patrol better leave me alone
'cause I can only take it for so long
Going down isnt hard to do
The king of clubs and.queen of hearts fall too
She says, if you believe this is only a lonely time,
Stay at home boys the blues are lost on you
Aint it true
We love the downtown life
Drifting thru the day
Waiting for the nite, oh
Downtown life it feels so right
It keeps me hangin on
Downtown life
Drifting thru the nite
Waiting for the night to come
Downtown life it feels so right
It keeps me hangin on

Cynical Baby Downtown
'Soothing voices are announcing,
cynical baby downtown,
another suppression of hope,
a day of compulsory dancing,
cynical baby downtown,
and subliminal sex, guns and dope.
The mistress of rude assumptions,
cynical baby downtown,
is trying to give us a clue,
displaying the bodily functions,
cynical baby downtown,
of what I might mean to you.
Old men are showing photographs,
cynical baby downtown,
of some of the targets we hit;
I guess the animal that laughs,
cynical baby downtown,
has had a testosterone fit.
And the party went ballistic,
cynical baby downtown,
but no one was to blame;
it was your explosive lipstick,
cynical baby downtown,
that had just spoken my name.'

It Aint Easy
When you climb to the top of the mountain
Look out over the sea
Think about the places perhaps, where a young man could be
Then you jump back down to the rooftops
Look out over the town
Think about all of the strange things circulating round
It aint easy, it aint easy
It aint easy to get to heaven when youre going down
Well all the people have got their problems
That aint nothing new
With the help of the good lord
We can all pull on through
We can all pull on through
Get there in the end
Sometimes itll take you right up and sometimes down again
It aint easy, it aint easy
It aint easy to get to heaven when youre going down
Satisfaction, satisfaction
Keep me satisfied
Ive got the love of a hoochie koochie woman
She calling from inside
Shes a-calling from inside
Trying to get to you
All the woman really wants you can give her something too
It aint easy, it aint easy
It aint easy to get to heaven when youre going down
It aint easy, it aint easy
It aint easy to get to heaven when youre going down

I Aint Living Long Like This
I aint living long like this
Rodney crowell
You looked for trouble and you found it son
Straight down the barrel of a lawmans gun
Youd try to run but you dont think you can
You make one move and youre dead man, friend
I aint living long like this
I cant live at all like this, can I baby
He slipped the handcuffs on behind my back
Then he left me freezing on a steel rail track
They got em all in the jailhouse, aint they baby
I aint living long like this
Grew up in houston off of wayside drive
Son of a car hop in some all night dive
Dad drove a stock car to an early death
All I remember was a drunk mans breath
I aint living long like this
I cant live at all like this can I baby
We know the story how the wheel goes round
Dont let em take you to the man downtown
Cant sleep at all in the jailhouse, baby
I aint living long like this
You live for angel, shes a roadhouse queen
Make texas ruby look like sandra dee
You want to love her but you dont know how
Youre at the bottom of the jailhouse now
I aint living long like this
I cant live at all like this, can I baby
You know the story bout the jailhouse rock
Go on and do it, but just dont get caught
They got em all in the jailhouse, aint they baby
I aint living long like this

Country Aint Country
He was raised on a tractor in overalls and boots
Been to college and then law school since leaving his roots
Came home in a lexus,he left in a ford
Country aint country no more
He told his daddy catch up with the times
He said now a days people trade heifers online
Dad aint selling deals with a handshake like before
Country aint country no more
No,country aint country no more
The back forty was sold to make up for hard times
Then sold by the half acre lot overnight
The houses went up and the trees were cut down
And there went the finest deer hunting around
Lord everyones locking their doors
cause country aint country no more
Now his dad sits in traffic looking round at the change
Watching crews turn the county road into four lanes
The old sunday drive has turned into a chore
Country aint country no more
Lord,country aint country no more
The back forty was sold to make up for hard times
Then sold by the half acre lot overnight
The houses went up and the trees were cut down
And there went the finest deer hunting around
Lord everyones locking their doors
cause country aint country no more
Theres no turning back
And you just cant ignore
That country aint country no more
No,country aint country no more

The Good Lord Loves You
Im singing this song for the men in your prisons and jails
The junkies and juicers and every good man that fails
And for every outlaw whos got no place left to go
The good lord loves you
The good lord loves you
The good lord, he loves you so
And Im singing this song for the leaders of every land
For every political and every military man
And for every mother and child in their kingdoms below
The good lord loves you
The good lord loves you
The good lord, he loves you so
Aint it sad that were doing so bad
Im singing this song with the feeling thats deep in my heart
And I wish I could tear down the walls that keep us apart
I wish I could tear down the walls so the feelings can grow
The good lord loves you
The good lord loves you
The good lord, he loves you so

Long Time Gone
Daddy sits on the front porch swingin'
Look in' out on a bacon field
Used to be filled with burning tobacco
Now he knows it never will
My brother found work in Indiana
Sisters a nurse at the old folks home
Momma still cooking too much for supper
And me I've been a long time gone
[chorus]
Baby long time gone
No I aint hoed a row since I don't know when
Long time gone
And I aint comin' back again
Amilia plays that old church piano
Sittin' out on her daddy's farm
She always thought that we'd be together
Lord I never meant to do her harm
Said she could her me singin in the choir
Me I heard another song
I caught wind and hit the road runnin'
And lord i've been long time gone
[chorus]
Baby long time gone
Lord i aint had a purse since I don't know when
Long time gone
And it aint commin' back again
Now me I went to Nashville
Trying to beat the big deal
Playing down to Broadway
Getin' in the ahrd way
Livin' from a tip jar
Sleepin' in mah car
Huggin' my guitar ya im gonna be a staaaar
Now me until your singin' every sunday
Watchin' the children in the garden grove
Listen to the radio to hear what's cookin'
But the music aint got....NO SOUL!
Now they sound tired but they don't sound haggard
They got money but they don;t got cash
They got Junior but they don;t got Hank
I thank
I thank
I thank the rest is....
[chorus]
Long time gone
No I aint hit the roof since i don't know when
Long time gone
And it aint commin' back
I said Long time gone
No I aint parked a Ford since I don't know when
Long time gone
And it aint commin' back agaiiiin
I said a long time

Lovers Prayer
Lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
Lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
Lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
Just wanna be with my love tonight
I dont want no jive artists calling me on the telephone
Dont wanna watch the carson show all alone
I just wanna lay back, take my rest
With the one I loves head resting on my chest
Lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
Lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
Lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
Just wanna be with my love tonight
And I dont want my best friends even coming round
cos if they do I might put em down
Carsons over and the lights way down low
And all I got, I got a heart full of soul
Lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
I said, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
I said, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
Just wanna be with my love tonight
And its a lovers prayer, oh yes it is
Takes a little time, takes a little care, yeah, yeah, yeah
And when it gets way on in the midnight hour
I just wanna play my guitar
I just wanna see you smile, touch your face
Be with you in my own place
Lord, lord, lord, lord, lord
