Everyday People by Sly & the Family Stone



Sometimes I'm right and I can be wrong
My own beliefs are in my song
The butcher, the banker, the drummer and then
Makes no difference what group I'm in
I am everyday people, yeah, yeah

There is a blue one
Who can't accept the green one
For living with a fat one
Trying to be a skinny one
Different strokes
For different folks

And so on and so on
And scooby dooby dooby
Oh sha sha
We got to live together

I am no better and neither are you
We are the same, whatever we do
You love me, you hate me, you know me and then
You can't figure out the bag I'm in
I am everyday people, yeah yeah

There is a long hair
That doesn't like the short hair
For being such a rich one
That will not help the poor one
Different strokes
For different folks

And so on and so on
And scooby dooby dooby
Oh sha sha
We got to live together

There is a yellow one
That won't accept the black one
That won't accept the red one
That won't accept the white one
Different strokes
For different folks

And so on and so on
And scooby dooby dooby
Oh sha sha
I am everyday people

Always by Saliva



I hear a voice say, "Don't be so blind."
it's telling me all these things
that you would probably hide
am I your one and only desire?
am I the reason you breathe?
or am I the reason you cry?

always, always, always, always, always, always.
I just can't live without you.

I love you
I hate you
I can't get around you
I breathe you
I taste you
I can't live without you
I just can't take any more
this life of solitude
I guess that I'm out the door
and now I'm done with you

I feel like you don't want me around
I guess I'll pack all my things
I guess I'll see you around
It's all been bottled up until now
as I walk out your door
all I can hear is the sound

always, always, always, always, always, always.
I just can't live without you

I love you
I hate you
I can't get around you
I breathe you
I taste you
I can't live without you
I just can't take any more
this life of solitude
I guess that I'm out the door
and now I'm done with you

I love you
I hate you
I can't live without you

I left my head around your heart
Why would you tear my world apart?

always, always, always, always

I see... the blood all over your hands
does it make you feel... more like a man?
was it all... just a part of your plan?
the pistol's shakin' in my hands
and all I hear is the sound

I love you
I hate you
I can't live without you
I breathe you
I taste you
I can't live without you
I just can't take any more
this life of solitude
I guess that I'm out the door
and now I'm done with you

I love you
I hate you
I can't live without you

I love you
I hate you
I can't live without you
I just can't take any more
this life of solitude
I pick myself off the floor
and now I'm done with you
Always
Always
Always

Waves by Luke Bryan


It's like the sun went down just to frame your face
Like they played that song just to see you sway
Like that old surf shop had you in mind
With what you got on, making those tan lines

It's like the ocean knows we're laying
On this beach tonight
It's like the sand's been waiting
For you to come alive 'cause

You were made for summer
Just like these stars we're under
We're made for lighting this July sky up
Blanket down made for me and you tied up
All night long, over and over
Crash into me and pull me closer
Kiss by kiss, one after another
Don't let go, baby, let this summer
Just keep on coming in waves
Keep coming in waves
Keep on coming in waves
Keep coming in waves

Wish I could bottle up the taste on your lips
That margarita saltwater sunburned sip
It's like I feel that sun right next to me
Yeah, girl, your touch is a hundred degrees

Boardwalks were made for dancing
And flip flops were made to lose like
This night was meant to happen
And, girl, I was made for you like

You were made for summer
Just like these stars we're under
We're made for lighting this July sky up
Blanket down made for me and you tied up
All night long, over and over
Crash into me and pull me closer
Kiss by kiss, one after another
Don't let go, baby, let this summer
Just keep on coming in waves
Keep coming in waves
Keep on coming in waves

Keep on coming in waves
Keep coming in waves
Keep on coming in waves
Keep coming in waves

Baby, you were made for summer
Just like these stars we're under
We're made for lighting this July sky up
Blanket down made for me and you tied up
All night long, over and over
Crash into me and pull me closer
Kiss by kiss, one after another
Don't let go, baby, let this summer
Just keep on coming in waves
Keep coming in waves
Keep on coming in waves
Keep coming in waves

Skin by Sixx AM



Paint yourself a picture
Of what you wish you looked like
Maybe then they just might
Feel an ounce of your pain

Come into focus
Step out of the shadows
It's a losing battle
There's no need to be ashamed

'Cause they don't even know you
All they see is scars
They don't see the angel
Living in your heart

Let them find the real you
Buried deep within
Let them know with all you've got
That you are not your skin

Oh [2x]

When they start to judge you
Show them your true colors
And do unto others
As you'd have done to you

Just rise above this
Kill them with your kindness
Ignorance is blindness
They're the ones that stand to lose

'Cause they don't even know you
All they see is scars
They don't see the angel
Living in your heart

Let them find the real you
Buried deep within
Let them know with all you've got
That you are not your skin

Oh

Well, they don't even know you
All they see is scars
And they don't see the angels
Living in your heart

So, let them find the real you
Buried deep within
Let them know with all you've got
That you are not
You are not your skin

Oh [2x]

Hotel California by Eagles


On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
"This could be Heaven or this could be Hell"
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (Any time of year)
You can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the Captain
"Please bring me my wine."
He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine."
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling
The pink champagne on ice
And she said "We are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember
I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
"Relax," said the night man
"We are programmed to receive
You can check-out any time you like
But you can never leave!"

Jekyll & Hyde by Petra



I have a secret that I let nobody see
An evil shadow that's been hanging over me
My alter ego that I try to hold at bay
But despite my good intentions he can always get away

He does the things that I don't want to do

Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
Two men are fighting a war inside

I have this secret that I let nobody see
It's like a split personality
And the one I feed is the one who lives
The one I starve will be the one who gives

He won't do things that I know I should do

Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde
Two men are fighting a war inside
One gives, one takes, I have to decide
Sometimes I feel like Jekyll and Hyde

I need somebody to rescue me
When personalities clash
I know which person I want to be
With no defiance
Just God-reliance

If I Didn't Have You by Chase Rice



I'd be a two-for-one, good-for-nothin'
A hellbent and heart-breakin' fool
I'd be nowhere fast, wrong side of the stained glass
Rack on a local barstool
If you I didn't have you

If I didn't have you, I'd be lost on an old, lonesome highway
No ride or die by my side
If I didn't have you, I'd be singin' the same ol' truck songs
In the same ol' smoky old dives
I'd be red and white stripes with no blue
A drugged-out Johnny, no June
If I didn't have you
If I didn't have you
If I didn't have you

I'd be a 2AM, back of an askin'-for-regret-tomorrow ride home
Yeah, I'd be the guy with the life that every guy might like
But little does every guy know
It doesn't have you

If I didn't have you, I'd be lost on an old, lonesome highway
No ride or die by my side
If I didn't have you, I'd be singin' the same ol' truck songs
In the same ol' smoky old dives
I'd be red and white stripes with no blue
A drugged-out Johnny, no June
If I didn't have you
If I didn't have you
If I didn't have you

If I didn't have you
If I didn't have you
I'd be knees-on-the-ground, askin' the big Man
Upstairs, "Where's an angel for me?"
If I didn't have you

If I didn't have you, I'd be lost on an old, lonesome highway
No ride or die by my side
If I didn't have you, I'd be singin' the same ol' truck songs
In the same ol' smoky old dives
I'd be red and white stripes with no blue
A drugged-out Johnny, no June
If I didn't have you
If I didn't have you
If I didn't have you

If I didn't have you
Girl, if I didn't have you
If I didn't have you
I'd be a two-for-one, good-for-nothin'
A hellbent and heart-breakin' fool

Rock It For Me by Caravan Palace



All the "bad boys" want some brawl, it's tricky
And girls enjoy, they feel so lucky
Laughing at weeds running out the door
Calling their mom when they lick the floor
(Look how) Those funky monkeys talk and walk in store
They're lost, sad and brawny like an apple core
Who can believe that there will be some gore With those wimps like I said before

[x2]
It ain't right, babe, no
It ain't right, no no
Mama, don't do that you know
It ain't right, yeah, boy boy

"Bad boys" are not so picky
They ride away and feel so happy
To fight for girls they do adore
Snorting like boars rolling on the floor
With their leather jacket and their rocky voice
They hit, fight, kick, wreak havoc and rejoice
Nobody knows what they are looking for
A kind of battle axe or maybe more

[x2]
It ain't right, babe, no
It ain't right, no no
Mama, don't do that you know
It ain't right, yeah, boy boy

When a bad boy tramp sounds, its' freaky
Cause you're afraid, remember he's lanky
Don't rate him even he gets sore
Cross the river and roam the shore

[x3]
It ain't right, babe, no
It ain't right, no no
Mama, don't do that you know
It ain't right, yeah, boy boy

Fortunate Son by Creedence Clearwater Revival


Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Ooh, they're red, white and blue
And when the band plays "Hail To The Chief"
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord

It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no senator's son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me; I ain't no fortunate one, no

Some folks are born silver spoon in hand
Lord, don't they help themselves, oh
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale, yes

It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no millionaire's son, no, no
It ain't me, it ain't me; I ain't no fortunate one, no

Yeah!
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!" Yo

It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no military son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me; I ain't no fortunate one, one

It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate one, no no no
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate son, no no no

Death Letter Blues by Chris Thomas King



Hard time here and everywhere you go
Times is harder than ever been before

And the people are driftin' from door to door
Can't find no heaven, I don't care where they go

Hear me tell you people, just before I go
These hard times will kill you just dry long so

Well, you hear me singin' my lonesome song
These hard times can last us so very long

If Ie ver get off this killin' floor
I'll never get down this low no more
No-no, no-no, I'll never get down this low no more

And you say you had money, you better be sure
'Cause these hard times will drive you from door to door

Sing this song and I ain't gonna sing no more
Sing this song and I ain't gonna sing no more
These hard times will drive you from door to door

Boy by Lee Brice


Boy, you're gonna know it all
You'll think you're ten feet tall
And run like you're bulletproof
And total a car or two
Boy, you're gonna hate this town
Wish you could burn it down
That fire in your eyes is twenty counties wide
But boy, you're gonna love seventeen
And boy, you'll do some stupid things

You're gonna drive and kiss
And throw a punch
And grow up way too fast
You're gonna drop the ball
Hit the wall
And break some hearts like glass
I know you will, 'cause you're a part of me
And a part of you will always be a boy

You're gonna be so stubborn
You get that from your mother
I already see it now, you weren't built for backing down
And boy, there'll be a small town night
And you'll fall for her sky-blue eyes
And when she's in your hands
You'll think you're a man and not a boy
She'll make you lose your mind, boy
She'll be every reason why

You're gonna drive and kiss
And throw a punch
And grow up way too fast
You're gonna drop the ball
Hit the wall
And break some hearts like glass
I know you will, 'cause you're a part of me
And a part of you will always be...my boy

It's 3 AM and I'd do anything to get you back to sleep
And that face will be the same one in the rearview
The day I watch you leave

But boy, you're gonna come back home
You're gonna settle down
But you won't feel the way I'm feelin' now
Til you have a boy
He's gonna know it all
He'll think he's ten feet tall
And run like he's bulletproof
And total a car or two

Let's Stay Together by Al Green



Let's stay together

I'm, I'm so in love with you
Whatever you want to do
Is alright with me
'Cause you make me feel so brand new
And I want to spend my life with you

Let me say that since, baby
Since we've been together
Loving you forever
Is what I need
Let me be the one you come running to
I'll never be untrue

Oh, baby, let's, let's stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad

Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad

Why, somebody, why people break-up
Oh, turn around and make-up
I just can't see
You'd never do that to me
Would you, baby?
Just being around you is all I see

Here's what I want us to do

Let's, we ought to stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
Come on

Let's, let's stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad

Dani California by Red Hot Chili Peppers


Gettin' born in the state of Mississippi
Poppa was a copper and her momma was a hippie
In Alabama, she would swing a hammer
Price you gotta pay when you break the panorama
She never knew that there was anything more than poor
What in the world, what does your company take me for?
Black bandanna, sweet Louisiana
Robbin' on a bank in the state of Indiana
She's a runner, rebel and a stunner
On her merry way sayin', "Baby, what you gonna—?"
Lookin' down the barrel of a hot metal .45
Just another way to survive

California, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California, show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest, yeah, yeah

She's a lover, baby and a fighter
Shoulda seen her comin' when it got a little brighter
With a name like Dani California
Day was gonna come when I was gonna mourn ya
A little loaded, she was stealin' another breath
I love my baby to death

California, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California, show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest, yeah, yeah

Who knew the other side of you?
Who knew what others died to prove?
Too true to say goodbye to you
Too true to say, say, say

Push the fader, gifted animator
One for the now and eleven for the later
Never made it up to Minnesota
North Dakota man was a gunnin' for the quota
Down in the Badlands, she was savin' the best for last
It only hurts when I laugh
Gone too fast

California, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California, show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest, yeah, yeah
California, rest in peace (Do svidaniya)
Simultaneous release (California)
California, show your teeth (Do svidaniya)
She's my priestess, I'm your priest, yeah, yeah

What Kind of Man Would I Be by Chicago


Girl, well it's been one of those days again
And it seems like the harder I try
Over and over, I'm right back where I began
But you understand
Oh girl, when nothing else in this world goes right
Oh I just want to run to you
You pull me through
Oh baby, who wouldn't want to have you in their life?

Tell me, what kind of man would I be?
Living a life without any meaning?
And I know you could surely survive without me
But if I had to live without you
Tell me what kind of man would I be?

Times when it was pointless for me to try
I was more than a desperate man
What seemed like forever was gone with one touch of your hand
Oh, girl, if I could count all the sleepless nights
When you were there for me
A fool could see, oh baby
Once that I found you there was no letting go

Tell me, what kind of man would I be?
Living a life without any meaning?
And I know you could surely survive without me
But if I had to live without you
Tell me what kind of man would I be?

Right Here Waiting by Richard Marx


Oceans apart day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain

If I see you next to never
How can we say forever

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I took for granted, all the times
That I thought would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now

Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me going crazy

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I wonder how we can survive
This romance
But in the end if I'm with you
I'll take the chance

Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me going crazy

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
Waiting for you

Salt, Lime & Tequila by Ryan Griffin



Boys lost that game on Sunday
Gotta work a double on a Monday
Yea, I wish that stack of bills
Would go on and pay themselves
When that glass looks half empty
I fill it up don't let it get me down
If I know one thing
Yeah, gotta take it all with a grain of

Salt, lime and tequila
It all gets to fading with one
Two, maybe three margaritas
Throw em back and watch em
Wash your worries away
At the end of the day
All you gotta do it take
Life with a grain of
Salt, lime and tequila

Ain't much worth stressing over
Let it roll right off your shoulder
Time flies and life is short
So why not have one more
With a dash on the rim
Pour it strong mix it in
When it don't go your way
Take it all with a grain of

Salt, lime and tequila
It all gets to fading with one
Two, maybe three margaritas
Throw em back and watch em
Wash your worries away
At the end of the day
All you gotta do it take
Life with a grain of
Salt, lime and tequila

Just a dash on the rim
Pour it strong mix it in
Yeah, you know what they say
Take it all with a grain of

Salt, lime and tequila
It all gets to fading with one
Two, maybe three margaritas
Throw em back and watch em
Wash your worries away
At the end of the day
All you gotta do it take
Life with a grain of
Salt, lime and tequila

Tattoos and Tequila by Jason Aldean


I got this one here on a midnight dare at a border town
Every time he stuck that needle in my skin, she had to look away
Had him put it right her on my chest, over my heart
That Rose of Jericho looks so good painted underneath her name
It hurt like hell
Yeah, but it was worth the pain

When I'm missing her I take another shot
I know it ain't the cure but right now it's all I've got
She took most of me, and now all that I have left
Are tattoos to remember, tequila to forget

Just another neon-rollercoaster Friday night
Bartender wiping down that bar while he keeps an eyes on me
And sure hope he ain't about top cut me off
'Cause I'm only one or two away from getting my head where it needs to be

When I'm missing her I take another shot
I know it ain't the cure but right now it's all I've got
She took most of me, and now all that I have left
Are tattoos to remember and tequila to forget

Yeah, it hurt like hell
Mmm, but it was worth the pain

When I'm missing her I take another shot
I know it ain't the cure

When I'm missing her I pour another shot
I know it ain't the cure but right now it's all I've got
She took most of me, and now all that I have left
Are tattoos to remember and tequila to forget
