Red Sun
When the red sun sets
On the railroad town
And the bars begin to laugh
With the happy sound
Ill still be here
Right by your side
Theyll not be anyone
In my heart but you
And the dreams that youre havin
They wont let you down
If you just follow on
Cause you know where youre bound
The well will be flowing
And the words will come fast
When the one whos coming
Arrives here at last
On the grassy hills
Of the railroad town
Where we cut through the fences
And over the crowd
Where wind was blowin
Right through your hair
I dreamt that my momma
And daddy were there
And the dreams that youre havin
They wont let you down
If you just follow on
Cause you know where youre bound
The well will be flowing
And the words will come fast
When the one whos coming
Arrives here at last
When the red sun sets
On the railroad town
And the bars begin to laugh
With the happy sound
Ill still be here
Right by your side
Theyll not be another
In my heart but you

Crybaby
Cry to me, those were your very words
You said cry to me, cry to me
There you stood, laughing at my tears
You said, silly boy, forget your childhood fears
But you dont realize how strange it makes me feel
Now were exchanging parts
Stop, youre breaking my heart
Whos the crybaby now
Cry to me, cry to me, youre the crybaby now
Cry to me, cry
Whos the crybaby, whos breaking my heart
Lie to me, you know that I know you too well
So dont you lie to me, lie to me
I watch you from afar, crying up your sleeve
When they turn away,
So theyll still believe you dont need no one
But Im the only one that sees how youre torn apart
Stop youre breaking my heart
Whos the crybaby now
Cry to me, cry to me, youre my crybaby now
Cry to me, cry to me, whos the crybaby now
Cry to me, cry to me, youre my crybaby now
Whos the crybaby, whos breaking my heart
So what can you say now
What can you feel
When youve got a heart made of leather and steel
And you wont break down
You took self defense and turned it into art
Stop, youre breaking my heart
Come on

Please, please tell me
Cuz I need to know, I need to know now
When I was down, you came to me
And promised youd always be
By my side, now youre gone
And Im waiting patiently

Well be together a long time

Please, please be true
You know that I trust you, do that which you must do
Youve got the beach boys, and your firms got the stones
But I know you wont leave me alone
Sometimes it seems youre not with me
It hurts me so much, it hurts me so much
You are the most, youre so rad, youre so fresh
And Im glad I am yours, you are mine
Show me where and I will sign

Cuz you are the best lawyer in town.

A Song For While Im Away
These words I wrote, play and sing to you
Do not convey the love I brought and bring to you
For this is a song for while Im away
To say all the things Id love to say
You are my life, my everything, youre all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
Youre all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say
Now Im headed for the border
You see this song it ends right at the start
I swore when I was younger
No one would win my heart
And far away hills look greener still
But soon theyll all slip away
Its then Ill be returning
And Ill be coming home to stay
You are my life, my everything, youre all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
Youre all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say

Rainy Day Women #12 35
Well, theyll stone ya when youre trying to be so good,
Theyll stone ya just a-like they said they would.
Theyll stone ya when youre tryin to go home.
Then theyll stone ya when youre there all alone.
But I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
Well, theyll stone ya when youre walkin long the street.
Theyll stone ya when youre tryin to keep your seat.
Theyll stone ya when youre walkin on the floor.
Theyll stone ya when youre walkin to the door.
But I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
Theyll stone ya when youre at the breakfast table.
Theyll stone ya when you are young and able.
Theyll stone ya when youre tryin to make a buck.
Theyll stone ya and then theyll say, good luck.
Tell ya what, I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
Well, theyll stone you and say that its the end.
Then theyll stone you and then theyll come back again.
Theyll stone you when youre riding in your car.
Theyll stone you when youre playing your guitar.
Yes, but I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
Well, theyll stone you when you walk all alone.
Theyll stone you when you are walking home.
Theyll stone you and then say you are brave.
Theyll stone you when you are set down in your grave.
But I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.

You Turn Me On, Im A Radio
If youre driving into town
With a dark cloud above you
Dial in the number
Whos bound to love you
Oh honey you turn me on
Im a radio
Im a country station
Im a little bit corny
Im a wildwood flower
Waving for you
Broadcasting tower
Waving for you
And Im sending you out
This signal here
I hope you can pick it up
Loud and clear
I know you dont like weak women
You get bored so quick
And you dont like strong women
cause theyre hip to your tricks
Its been dirty for dirty
Down the line
But you know
I come when you whistle
When youre loving and kind
But if youve got too many doubts
If theres no good reception for me
Then tune me out, cause honey
Who needs the static
It hurts the head
And you wind up cracking
And the day goes dismal
From breakfast barney
To the sign-off prayer
What a sorry face you get to wear
Im going to tell you again now
If youre still listening there
If youre driving into town
With a dark cloud above you
Dial in the number
Whos bound to love you
If youre lying on the beach
With the transistor going
Kick off the sandflies honey
The loves still flowing
If your head says forget it
But your hearts still smoking
Call me at the station
The lines are open

You Are A Woman
(gernot rothenbach/ eric brodka)
Producers for bonnie: harold faltermeyer/ gernot rothenbach
Recorded in 1997 for the german tv series der knig von st. pauli, along with hes the king. lyrics are from careful listening.
(spoken):
Now, you are out there, all by yourself
And still, the whole world can see you
(sung):
The world is a small place, somebody told you
But that is just one way, thing can be
cause under the surface of friendly horizons
Theres more truth than you might believe
Youre looking for heroes, to cover your wildness
Youre looking for cages, to be caged
But no one is stronger, than the devils inside
So heres the point to decide...
All these illusions wont cover your pride
Youre looking for reasons, youre feelings wont hide
The world may go down, the devil is right
But for me, youre the queen of the night
You are a woman
Youre the one whos loving
You are a woman
You decide whos coming
Theres always a way
With the games that you play
You dont need nobody
To tell you, you are what you are, yeah
Yes, you are a woman
Youre the one whos loving
You are a woman
You decide whos coming
Theres always a way
With the games that you play
You dont need nobody
To tell you, you are what you are, ah yeah...(x3)
Oh!
(spoken)
Now
Is this what you wanted?
Are you happy?
I still think you dont know what you want
But
If this is your way
Youll have to go with it
All the way till...the end

Smalltown
When youre growing up in a small town
When youre growing up in a small town
When youre growing up in a small town
You say, no one famous ever came from here
When youre growing up in a small town
And youre having a nervous breakdown
And you think that youll never escape it
Yourself or the place that you live
Where did picasso come from
Theres no michelangelo coming from pittsburgh
If art is the tip of the iceberg
Im the part sinking below
When youre growing up in a small town
Bad skin, bad eyes, gay and fatty
People look at you funny
When youre in a small town
My father worked in construction
Its not something for which Im suited
Oh, what is something for which you are suited
Getting out of here
I hate being odd in a small town
If they stare let them stare in new york city
As this pink eyed painting albino
How far can my fantasy go
Im no dali coming from pittsburgh
No adorable lisping capote
My hero, oh, do you think I could meet him
Id camp out at his front door
There is only one good thing about small town
There is only one good use for a small town
There is only one good thing about small town
You know that you want to get out
When youre growing up in a small town
You know youll grow down in a small town
There is only one good use for a small town
You hate it and youll know you have to leave

Sitting In The Palmtree
See me sitting in the palmtree
Looking down at people passing by
Sitting here no-one can harm me
They just stare at me and wonder why
No need to bother, Im gonna stay up here
Whatever happens, I wont let no-one near
Until you tell me, jeanie jeanie on my mind, wont you please
You really love me, jeanie jeanie youre so fine, yes you are now
And in the evening, when the sun goes down
Ill be the bluest of men in this town
cause I love you, jeanie jeanie on my mind
See me sitting in the palmtree
Waiting for those little words from you
People laugh and point their fingers
Like I was a monkey at the zoo
But I will stay here, among my coconuts
So you will know dear, youre everything Ive got
Now wont you tell me, jeanie jeanie on my mind
Winds blow, stars glow, I see a light in a window
Dark trees, soft breeze, carry my message to her please
See me sitting in the palmtree
Feeling angry at the silly crowd
No-one else but you can calm me
You should know by now Im far too proud
I need to show you, Ive got my feelings too
You shouldnt treat me like you always do
So wont you tell me, jeanie jeanie on my mind, wont you please
You really love me, jeanie jeanie youre so fine, yes you are now
And in the evening, when the sun goes down
Ill be the bluest of men in this town
cause I love you, jeanie jeanie on my mind
Jeanie jeanie youre so fine
Jeanie jeanie on my mind
Jeanie jeanie youre so fine
Jeanie jeanie on my mind
Jeanie jeanie youre so fine

Stupidly Happy
Im stupidly happy
Everythings fine
Im stupidly happy
My heart pumping wine
Im stupidly happy
With idiot grin
Im stupidly happy
You wont catch me in
All the birds of the air call your name as they land on my kitchen roof
All the fish in the sea do the same if you need extra proof
Im stupidly happy
My vision is skewed
Im stupidly happy
Im coming unscrewed
And if the devil walks up dressed in any disguise
I take him by the collars look him in the eye
Im stupidly happy
Now youre my defense
Im stupidly happy
Its all making sense
Im stupidly happy
I roll like a train
Im stupidly happy
With you in my brain
All the lights of the cars in the town form the strings of a big guitar
Im a giant to play you a tune for wherever you are
Im stupidly happy
Are the words to that song
Im stupidly happy
And nothing is wrong
And should the devil walk up with his business card out
Ill tear it to confetti with a grin and shout,
Im stupidly happy
All of the time
Im stupidly happy
Now youre mine

You better not pout,
Im telling you why:
Santa claus is coming to town!
Hes making a list,
Hes checking it twice,
Gonna find out whos naughty or nice.

He sees you when youre sleeping,
He knows when youre awake.
He knows when youve been bad or good,
So be good for goodness sake!
So...you better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, Im telling you why.
Santa claus is coming to town.
Little tin horns, little toy drums.
Rudy-toot-toot and rummy tum tums.
Santa claus is coming to town.
Little toy dolls that cuddle and coo,
Elephants, boats and kiddie cars too.
Santa claus is coming to town.
The kids in girl and boy land
Will have a jubilee.
Theyre gonna build a toy land town
All around the christmas tree.
Ohh....you better watch out, you better not cry.
You better not pout, Im telling you why.

Thr Railroad Tracks
Who lived across the railroad tracks?
A few of us whites, but mostly blacks.
These railroad tracks without even knowing
separated my town and kept it growing
into a segregated place.
I used to listen for the sound of the train.
As it rolled on by, it would never remain.
It just kept rolling to where it was going.
The engineer waved. The smoke kept blowing
into a segregated place.
Even when the trains stopped the rolling
the tracks will still there.They were controlling
the thinking of the people in our town.
So they kept the tracks there, never tore them down
in our segregated place.
Some were on the right side of the tracks, you see.
Some were on the wrong side of the tracks, like me.
They never took the tracks down from 60 years ago.
And the town I grew up in doesn't want to know
it's a segregated place.

Annie
Youre a little bit shy
A little too quiet
Youre the mixed up girl
That everybody leaves behind
A little bit weird
A little too bright
But you just might be
That little bomb at their side
Theyll pull your hair
Theyll leave you wide-eyed
But did anybody wonder
What annie might have in mind
Oh, no
Theres something in the way she explains to me
Please be careful, I exist in someone elses head
Oh, no
Theres something in the way that she makes believe
Please be careful,
Annie dreams that everyone is dead
Youre a little bit dry
A little uptight
Youre the messed up girl
That every body tries to hide
Youve had enough
Theyre too unkind
But did anyone consider
What annie might have in mind
Oh, no...

I just cant get used to it
She broke my little heart in two
Now somebody else is being the same old you

My baby has egyptian eyes
And a wicked look beyond compare
If you thought I was a fool for you
Then I must be a bigger fool for her

Hed turn the flowers of springtime into a wreath
He says hed love you eternally
I say please please cant you keep it brief
They say theyre going to bury you
Because youre so lovable
Put your money where your mouth was
Youre so lovable
Each tender mumble brings us closer to bedlam
Youre so lovable
The toast of the town and the talk of the bedroom
Youre so lovable
Youre so sweet
Youre so honest
You say 'Ill be true to you boy
But I wont promise
Then you say you love me
Then you show me
As you lie there so lifelike below me

Alphabet city is haunted
Constantina feels right at home
She probably wont say youre wrong
But youre already wrong
Youre already wrong
And you threw up whatever she shot down
Said show me around this alphabet town
Said show me around
Theres a name you keep repeating
You got nothing better to do
And youre with someone wholl hear you say it and just nod
Her hand on your arm
Her hand on your arm
She put her hand on your arm
And told you her name you cant pronounce it
Ill show you around this alphabet town
Ill show you around this alphabet town

Barricades and brickwalls won't keep me
from you
You can tie me down on the railroad
track
You can let that freight train lose
Iron bars and big ole cars
Won't run me out of town
I'll be damned if you're not my man
Before the sun goes down
You can chain me down
On the edge of town
You can leave me there to die
But the railroad track
Will bring me back
When the lonesome whistle cries
You can lock me out
You can scream and shout
You can try to change your name
But by the end of the day
I'll take you away
Like a force 10 hurricane

Bet Shes Not Your Girlfriend
(tennant/lowe)
---------------
(whisper whisper whisper whisper)
Whisper round the town,
cause youre my friend and thats the end
For youre the only one in town
Who they will beg to hang around with
Youre so beautiful and calm
But with an attitude that says:
Hands-off, youre just not good enough
Every boy and man feeling lonely
Cant understand why youd be with me
Furthermore, we laugh and we draw
More attention everyday, so they say:
(girlfriend) bet shes not your girlfriend, oh no,
(oh oh oh girlfriend) you better make her happy
(oh oh oh girlfriend) bet shes not your girlfriend, oh no,
(oh oh oh girlfriend) you better make her happy
Well, that says maybe, in a way, but its okay
We are touche, while they stare in front of us
They draw away, as if to say:
Who are these people anyway?
How dare they confront us?
Every boy and man feeling lonely
Cant understand why youd be with me
Furthermore, we laugh and we draw
More attention everyday, so they say:
(girlfriend) bet shes not your girlfriend, oh no,
(oh oh oh girlfriend) you better make her happy
(oh oh oh girlfriend) bet shes not your girlfriend, oh no,
(oh oh oh girlfriend) you better make her happy
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
(girlfriend oh oh oh girlfriend
Oh oh oh girlfriend oh oh oh girlfriend)
Id rather die, than satisfy their curiousity
Im kind of shy and dry, and verging on ugly
They wonder what that I have got, that they have not
Theyll never understand that none of that matters
Every boy and man feeling lonely
Cant understand why youd be with me
Furthermore, we laugh and we draw
More attention everyday, so they say:
(girlfriend) bet shes not your girlfriend, oh no,
(oh oh oh girlfriend) you better make her happy
(oh oh oh girlfriend) bet shes not your girlfriend, oh no,
(oh oh oh girlfriend) you better make her happy
(oh oh oh girlfriend oh oh oh girlfriend
Oh oh oh girlfriend)
Bet shes not your, bet shes not your,
Bet shes not your,bet shes not your,
(oh oh oh girlfriend)
Bet shes not your girlfriend, oh no
(oh oh oh girlfriend) bet shes not your girlfriend
(oh oh oh girlfriend) you better make her happy

Bet shes not your girlfriend
