Well now people,
Did you think things would be different?
Well now people ,
Did you think that everything would be good?
Well now it Looks to me like you're living in the wrong neighborhood.
Most everybody seems to want the very same thing,
Most everybody seems to want the very same thing
A taste of the good life and hear the freedom bells ring.
We work hard everyday and try to raise a family,
We work hard everyday and try to raise a family
But I often seem to wonder if the jokes on me.
From sunrise to sunset , I try to do my best,
From sunrise to sunset , I try to do my best
I tell ya this life thing is a serious test.
So keep on smiling and don't ya ever give up.
If your hearts in the right place, heavens where you'll end up.

Eta may , yeah u give me the blues,
Eta may , yeah u give me the blues
You got me crying all night , and drinking lots booze
Why you got to treat me so bad
Like I can't do nothing right.
Always got to argue, always got to fight.
Etta may
When you going to quit your nagging
And treat me like a man.
I'm tired of the doghouse and taking out the garbage can
Etta may
Some day I'm gonna get to walking
Won't be back too soon.
Walking down the road now
Howling at the moon.
Etta may

Where people always swing. X2
And down at Jerry Lawlers, i heard that fighting bell ring.
Oh me oh my, Hey Hey

And at the 152, they got some blues for you
The flying Saucer, Alfred's and more
Yeah, It's just as you'd expect.
We've come to Beale to play our respect.

She was the toughest girl alive
She could take down seven x2
Now she's the roughest she's the toughest, always smiling while death defying, Now she's the roughest toughest girl up in heaven.
She was a smiling blues singing mama that always had to be strong x2
Through good times and bad times, when the bell tolls or the bell chimes, through good times and the bad she sang the bluesiest song.
B part
Oh oh Candy,candy Kane. She Fought through the hardship and the pain
But you would never know from looking because she was always hot and cooking.
You just can't put her down.
She was all about good loving but life dealt her a tough card x2
She preached of love and equality, love yourself and be free, Oh lord dear lord why does life have to be so hard.

And when you dance then everything's all right

Cause I love an upbeat grooving kind of song

The Road
03:37

Hey now everybody x2
Won't you gather around,
Hear a tale and sound.
I'm gonna tell you a story,
No guts no glory
about being southbound
I live in the forest x2
Good bye to the breeze,
And the leaves on the trees.
Headed down south now,
Where the warm wind blows
And my minds at ease.
It all turns to sand x2
I can hear no sound,
mountains abound.
That's the terrain,
The mountain the plain,
when you're southbound.
I see blue water x2
I think I've arrived
Blue water Red mountains, I know I'm alive.

I had a little corn
I put it in a sack
I get to the mill
And had to bring it right back
What's the matter with the mill
Done broke down
What's the matter with this mill
Done broke down
I can't get no grinding
Tell me what's the matter with the mill
Some people said that a preacher won't steal
I caught one down in my corn field
What's the matter with the mill
Done broke down
What's the matter with the mill
Done broke down
I can't get no grinding
Tell me what's the matter with the mill
One had a bush and one had a peck
The other had the cornfield round his neck
What's the matter with the mill
Done broke down
What's the matter with the mill
Done broke down
I can't get no grinding
Tell me what's the matter with the mill
Done broke down
Done broke down
You don't know the way I feel
I got some more weevil in my corn field
What's the matter with the mill
Done broke down
What's the matter with the mill
Done broke down
I can't get no grinding
Tell me what's the matter with the mill

ילדה רעה תל אביב

היא ילדה רעה תל אביב
והיא יודעת להכאיב x2
בולטת בשטח, לא שייכת לקולקטיב
סקס סמים ורוק נ רול
ראתה כבר את הכל x2
משלמים כך או אחרת , זה לא בא בזול
אוהבת את החושך
לא מחפשת את האור x2
ככל שינתן לה כך גדל הבור.
לילדה רעה תל אביב
כבר לא נשאר במה להכאיב x2
אבל אחרי כל חורף, מגיע האביב

Do the Do

Well I know
I've got a babe
And I know her
Love is true
But you ain't seen nothing
'Til you see her, see her
Do the do
Do the do
Shake her shoulder
Take her time
Mover her body
Like I move mine
When she's dancing
You'll love her too
When you see her
Do the do
Do the do
