Ridin' into town alone
By the light of the moon
I'm looking for ol Sukie Jones
She crazy horse saloon
Barkeep gimme a drink
That's when she caught my eye
She turned to give me a wink
That make a grown man cry
Chorus
Come easy, go easy
All right until the rising sun
I'm calling all the shots tonight
I'm like a loaded gun
Peelin' off my boots and chaps
I'm saddle sore
Four bits gets you time in the racks
I scream for more
Fools' gold out of their mines
The girls are soaking wet
Not tounge's drier than mine
I'll come when I get back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm riding, I'm loading up my pistol
I'm riding, I really got a fistful
I'm riding, I'm shining up my saddle
I'm riding, this snake is gonna rattle
Chorus
Ridin' high
Ridin' high
Ridin' high already
Leaving the things that are real behind
Leaving the things that you love from mind
All of the things you learned from fears
Nothing is left for the years
Voices scream
Nothing's seen
Real's the dream
Chorus:
Toys, toys, toys in the attic
Toys, toys, toys in the attic
Toys, toys, toys in the attic
Toys, toys, toys in the attic
In the attic lies
Voices scream
Nothing's seen
Real's the dream
Leaving the things that are real behind
Leaving the things that you love from mind
All of the things you learned from fears
Nothing is left for the years
Voices scream
Nothing's seen
Real's the dream
Repeat Chorus
Oh, woe is me
I feel so badly for you
Oh, woe is me
I feel so sadly for you in time
Time to lose your mind
Live on borrowed time
Take the wind right out of your sails
Fireflies dance in the heat of
Hound dogs that bay at the moon
My ship leaves in the midnight
Can't say I'll be back too soon
They awaken
Far, far away
Heat of my candle
Show me the way
Seas of a thousand
Drawn her to sin
Seasons of wither
Holdin' me in
Oh, woe is me
I feel so badly for you
Oh, woe is me
I feel so sadly for you in time
Time to lose your mind
Live on borrowed time
Take the wind right out of your sails
I met a cheerleader, was a real young bleeder
All the times I can reminisce
'Cause the best thing lovin'
With her sister and her cousin
Only started with a little kiss, like this
See-saw swingin' with the boys in the school
And your feet flyin' up in the air
Singin' hey diddle-diddle with the kitty in the middle
Of a swing like you didn't care
So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play
Was a me she was foolin'
'Cause she knew what she was doin'
And I know her love was here to stay
When she told me to
Walk this way, walk this way
Walk this way, walk this way
Ah, just give me a kiss - like this
School girl skinny with the classy kinda sassy
Little skirt's climbing way up her knees
There was three young ladies in the school gym locker
When I noticed they was lookin' at me
I was a high school loser
Never made it with a lady
Till the boys told me something I missed
Then my next door neighbor
With a daughter had a favor
So I gave her just a little kiss, like this
See-saw swingin' with the boys in the school
And your feet flyin' up in the air
Singin' hey diddle-diddle with the kitty in the middle
Of a swing like you didn't care
So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play
Was a me she was foolin'
'Cause she knew what she was doin'
When she told me how to Walk This Way
She told me to
Walk this way, talk this way
Walk this way, walk this way
Walk this way, walk this way
Walk this way, talk this way
Chip away,
Chip away at the stone.
I won't stop until your love is my very own.
Chip away,
That's what I'm gonna do.
Sweet little mama,
I wanna get next to you.
You stand like a marble statue,
Trying to look so hard.
All decked out in your antique dress,
While the boys all promenade.
Even a rock will crumble,
If you strike it night and day.
If hammer I must, I'm gonna get through your crust.
Gonna chip that stone away.
Chip away,
Chip away at the stone.
I won't stop until your love is my very own.
Chip away,
That's what I'm gonna do.
Sweet little mama,
I wanna get next to you.
Chip away,
Chip away at the stone.
Honey, I won't stop until your love is my very own.
Chip away,
That's what I'm wanna do.
Sweet little mama,
I wanna get next to you.
Yes I do, yes I do.
Chip away, chip away, at the stone.
Chip away, chip away, at the stone.
I won't stop. (repeat 6 times)
Chip it.
I'm gonna nip it, all night long.
I thought she told the boy
I was out of town
I wonder how she knowed
I was hangin' around
Say, listen babe
Don't go wastin' your time
You keep comin' 'round
I just hear the same old line
You got a thousand boys
You say you'll leave 'em
You take what's good for you
And I'll take my freedom
'Cause lately it's been so hard
To make ends meet
And honey, your headin' up a
One way street
And I gotta go the other way
(heh, heh, heh)
I thought I knew her
My cagey lady
How come my sunshine's
Was so damn shady
She'll say she love to talk
A conversation
But I'm the one
Who makes my situation
This one way city
That I thought I knew
It's such a pity, honey
That's it for you
'Cause lately it's been so hard
To make ends meet
And honey, your headin' up a
One way street
And I gotta go the other way
There's nothing over here
I never showed you
I made it pretty clear
I'm glad to know you
You know your brother Spike
He's on the level
But you always lookin'
Like you're mad at the devil
Don't say I cop a 'tude
It's all forgotten
It's just you're much too rude
Your fruits are rotten
You know I work so hard to keep it alive
Now all I hear from you
Is nothing but jive
'Cause a lately it's been so hard
Now to make ends meet
And honey, your head's a
One Way Street
And I'm goin' on the other way
Yes I do!
And lately it's been so hard
To make ends meet
And honey, your head's a
One Way Street
And I really been feelin'
Like I could be movin' on
Your headin' up a one way street
You're foolin' everybody you meet
Your headin' up a one way street
You're foolin' everybody but me
Your headin' up a one way street
You're foolin' everybody you meet
Your headin' up a one way street
You're foolin' everybody but me...
You got to get yourself back on your feet
