Speak Only in Random Song Lyrics

[John53]

On the first part of the journey I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can't remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

That's the way it's gonna be little darlin'
You'll go riding on the horses, yeah yeah
Way up in the sky little darlin'
And if you fall I'll pick you up, I'll pick you up

 

[John53]

People say I'm the life of the party
'Cause I tell a joke or two
Although I might be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside, I'm blue
So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
I need you, need you
Need you, need you

Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild

 

[Spice]

White bird
In a golden cage
On a winter's day
In the rain
White bird
In a golden cage
Alone
The leaves blow
Across the long, black road
To the darkened skies
In it's rage
But the white bird
Just sits in her cage
Unknown
White bird must fly
Or she will die

It's over, well over
In my mind and in my heart
It's over, well over
But then again, it didn't have a good start
You'd tell me, try to sell me
It could have been all I asked
It's over, well over
Yes, there it flows away a distant past
Now it's a long, dark road
Yes, it's a long, dark road
And you know I loved you
Yes, you know I loved you

 

[Spice]

In a white room with black curtains in the station
Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes
Dawn light smiles on you leaving, my contentment

'Cause justice is the one thing you should always find
You got to saddle up your boys, you got to draw a hard line
When the gun smoke settles we'll sing a victory tune
We'll all meet back at the local saloon
And we'll raise up our glasses against evil forces singing
Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses

Shirley!
Shirley, Shirley Bo-ber-ley
Bo-na-na fanna Fo-fer-ley

Lincoln, Lincoln, bo-bin-coln
Bo-na-na fanna, fo-fin-coln
Fee-fi-mo-min-coln
Lincoln!
Come on everybody
I say now let's play a game
I betcha I can make a rhyme
Out of anybody's name
The first letter of the name
I treat it like it wasn't there
But a "B" or an "F"
Or an "M" will appear

You got to saddle up your boys, you got to draw a hard line

Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses

Can't you see that long, white rope
Hanging from the hangman's tree?
Take the restless horse, tie may hands, of course
Tell my mother that I'm finally free
Let me die like a man, no one understands
Let me pray that a poor man pray
Smack that horse in the ***, with my last dying gasp
My brother could hear me say
Give me some water
'Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Give me some water

 

[We Never Know]

Can't you see that long, white rope
Hanging from the hangman's tree?
Take the restless horse, tie may hands, of course
Tell my mother that I'm finally free
Let me die like a man, no one understands
Let me pray that a poor man pray
Smack that horse in the ***, with my last dying gasp
My brother could hear me say
Give me some water
'Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Give me some water

Cause I saddle up my horse
And I ride into the city
I make a lot of noise
'Cause the girls
They are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway
On my old stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy
Everybody says
Save a horse, ride a cowboy

Cool, cool water

Keep a-movin', Dan, don't you listen to him, Dan
He's a devil, not a man
And he spreads the burnin' sand with water
Dan, can you see that big, green tree?
Where the water's runnin' free
And it's waitin' there for you and me?
Water, cool, clear water
Cool, clear water

 

[Stevicus]

Cause I saddle up my horse

I make a lot of noise
'Cause the girls
They are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway
On my old stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy
Everybody says
Save a horse, ride a cowboy

I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, still I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces
And I've rocked them all

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

 

[We Never Know]

Keep a-movin', Dan, don't you listen to him, Dan
He's a devil, not a man
And he spreads the burnin' sand with water
Dan, can you see that big, green tree?
Where the water's runnin' free
And it's waitin' there for you and me?
Water, cool, clear water
Cool, clear water

Home in the valley
Home in the city
Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for ne

Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home I'll never be

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight

I'm living for givin' the devil his due
And I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you
I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you

 

[McBell]

It was a ruby that she wore
On a chain around her neck
In the shape of a heart
In the shape of a heart
It was a time I won't forget
For the sorrow and regret
And the shape of a heart
And the shape of a heart
I guess I never knew
What she was talking about
I guess I never knew
What she was living without

 

[Stevicus]

Home in the valley
Home in the city
Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for ne

Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home I'll never be

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight

I'm living for givin' the devil his due
And I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you
I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you

I heard somebody say
Burn, baby, burn, disco inferno
Burn, baby, burn, burn that mother down
Burn, baby, burn, disco inferno
Burn, baby, burn, burn that mother down

Came in the chain reaction
(Burnin') I couldn't get enough
Till I had to self-destruct
The heat was on
(Burnin') rising to the top, uh
Everybody's goin' strong
And that is when my spark got hot

 

[McBell]

I've known some painted ladies that sparkled in the light
Country girls that loved the lovers moon
Some I never really knew, though I always wanted to
Some I only met once in a room
Some said they liked my smile, others of 'em stayed a while
While others left me on the run
This is the only way, only way I have to say
I loved 'em every one
Big, little or short or tall, wish I could've kept them all
I loved 'em every one
Like to thank 'em for their charms, holdin' me in their arms
And I hope they had some fun

 

[Spice]

Cause I saddle up my horse
And I ride into the city

And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy
Everybody says
Save a horse, ride a cowboy

To all the girls I've loved before
Who traveled in and out my door
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before
To all the girls I once caressed
And may I say, I've held the best
For helping me to grow, I owe a lot, I know
To all the girls I've loved before

 

[McBell]

Well, I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightnin' when it lights up the skies
You know it makes me feel good
Well, I love a rainy night
It's such a beautiful sight
I love to feel the rain on my face
Taste the rain on my lips
In the moonlight shadows
Showers wash all of my cares away
I wake up to a sunny day

 

[Spice]

Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild

Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile even though its breakin'
When there are clouds in the sky
You will get by if you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through for you.

 

[McBell]

Baby, you'll come knocking on my front door
Same old line you used to use before
I said yeah, well what am I supposed to do?
I didn't know what I was getting into

So you've had a little trouble in town
Now you're keeping some demons down
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around

It's hard to think about what you've wanted
It's hard to think about what you've lost
This doesn't have to be the big get even
This doesn't have to be anything at all

 

[We Never Know]

I heard somebody say
Burn, baby, burn, disco inferno
Burn, baby, burn, burn that mother down
Burn, baby, burn, disco inferno
Burn, baby, burn, burn that mother down

Came in the chain reaction
(Burnin') I couldn't get enough
Till I had to self-destruct
The heat was on
(Burnin') rising to the top, uh
Everybody's goin' strong
And that is when my spark got hot

Went to a party the other night
All the ladies were treating me right
Moving my feet to the disco beat
How in the world could I keep my seat
All of a sudden I began to change
I was on the dance floor acting strange
Flapping my arms I began to cluck
Look at me, I'm the disco duck

 

[McBell]

I'm not a pheasant plucker,
I'm a pheasant plucker's son.
And I'm sittin' pluckin' pheasants
til the pheasant plucker comes.
Well my daddy was a poor man
he worked hard to earn his pay.
I went out a'shootin' pheasants
which he sat and plucked all day.
I don't wanna end up like him,
plucking pheasants til I'm dead.
Gotta find another way
to earn me bread.

 

[We Never Know]

To all the girls I've loved before
Who traveled in and out my door
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before
To all the girls I once caressed
And may I say, I've held the best
For helping me to grow, I owe a lot, I know
To all the girls I've loved before

Hey, where did we go?
Days when the rains came
Down in the hollow
Playin' a new game
Laughin' and a-runnin', hey, hey
Skippin' and a-jumpin'
In the misty morning fog with
Our, our hearts a-thumping and you
My brown-eyed girl
And you, my brown-eyed girl
