"Somewhere, somehow somebody Must have kicked you around some. Tell me why you wanna lay there And revel in your abandon. Listen it don't make no difference to me baby, Everybody's had to fight to be free. You see you don't have to live like a refugee"

"You know, sometimes, I don't know why, But this old town just seems so hopeless. I ain't really sure, but it seems I remember the good times Were just a little bit more in focus."

"It just seems so useless to have to work so hard, And nothin' ever really seems to come from it."

"I just catch myself wonderin', waitin', worryin' bout some silly little things that don't add up to nothin'."

"And I'd show you stars you never could see Baby, it couldn't have been that easy to forget about me."

"Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes. Even the losers keep a little bit of pride. They get lucky sometimes."

"I was talkin' with a friend of mine, Said a woman done hurt his pride. Told him that she loved him so, then Turned around and let him go. Then he said "you'd better watch your step" Or you're gonna get hurt yourself. Someone's gonna tell you lies Cut you down to size..."

"Louisiana rain now is falling just like tears. Running down my face washing out the years. Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes. I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge."

"Oh baby, don't it feel like heaven right now, Don't it feel like something from a dream."

"The waiting is the hardest part. Every day you see one more card. You take it on faith, you take it to the heart. The waiting is the hardest part."

"She's a woman in love And he's gonna break her heart to pieces. She don't want to see. She's a woman in love, but it's not me."

"Somewhere deep in the middle of the night, Lovers hold each other tight. Whisper in their anxious ears, Words of love that disappear."

"I'm an insider, I been burned by the fire. And I've had to live with some hard promises. I've crawled through the briars, I'm an insider."

"Good love is hard to find. You got lucky, babe. You got lucky, babe, when I found you."

"Well I fought for you; I fought too hard. To do it all again babe, It's gone too far."

"I don't believe the good times are over. I don't believe the thrill is all gone. Real love is a man's salvation; The weak ones fall, the strong carry on."

"Honey don't walk out, I'm too drunk to follow. You know you won't feel this way tomorrow. Well, maybe I'm a little rough around the edges, Inside a little hollow. I get faced with some things sometimes That are so hard to swallow."

"I was born a rebel Down in Dixie on a Sunday morning. Yeah, with one foot in the grave, And one foot on the pedal. I was born a rebel."

"I don't feel you anymore. You darken my door. Whatever you're looking for. Hey don't come around here no more."

"There's a southern accent, where I come from. The young 'uns call it country, the Yankees call it dumb."

"For just a minute there I was dreaming. For just a minute it was all so real. For just a minute she was standing there, with me."

"Yeah and it's over before you know it. It all goes by so fast. Yeah, the bad nights last forever, And the good nights don't ever seem to last"

"Wherever you are tonight, I wish you the best of everything, in the world. And I hope you found Whatever you were looking for."

"Take back your insurance, Baby nothin's guaranteed."

"There were times apart, there were times together. I was pledged to her for worse or better. When it mattered most I let her down. That's the way it goes, it'll all work out."

"'Cause it can feel like perfection, But never all the time. And you don't wanna be alone again. Oh my, my."

"All the vampires walkin' through the valley Move west down Ventura Boulevard. And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows All the good girls are home with broken hearts."

"I wanna glide down over Mulholland. I wanna write her name in the sky. Gonna free fall out into nothing. Gonna leave this world for a while."

"Well I won't back down, No I won't back down. You could stand me up at the gates of hell, But I won't back down."

"No I'll stand my ground, won't be turned around And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down Gonna stand my ground, And I won't back down."

"Well I know what's right, I got just one life In a world that keeps on pushin' me around But I'll stand my ground And I won't back down."

"It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down; I had the radio on, I was drivin'. The trees went by, me and Del were singin', Little runaway, I was flyin'.Yeah runnin' down a dream That never would come to me. Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads. I'm runnin' down a dream."

"I felt so good, like anything was possible. I hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes. The last three days the rain was unstoppable. And it was always cold, no sunshine."

"But not me, baby, I've got you to save me. Aw, yer so bad. Best thing I've ever had. In a world gone mad, Yer so bad."

"I remember her standing in the tall grass and cattails Away from the windows at the end of the day. Watching the men from the landing in the tall hats & coat-tails. She'd never look different, but something would change."

"I'm learning to fly, But I ain't got wings. Coming down Is the hardest thing."

"Well some say life Will beat you down, And break your heart, Steal your crown.So it started out For God-knows-where. I guess I'll know When I get there."

"I don't want to end up In a room all alone Don't want to end up someone That I don't even know."

"Into the great wide open, Under them skies of blue. Out in the great wide open, A rebel without a clue."

"In the dark of the sun will you save me a place? Give me hope, give me comfort, get me to a better place?"

"Here am I a fallen arrow. My load is wide, my street is narrow. My skin is thicker, my heart is tougher. I don't mind workin', but I'm scared to suffer. You know? You know?"

"Well she grew up hard, and she grew up fast In the age of television. And she made a vow to have it all; It became her new religion."

"You and I will meet again When we're least expecting it. One day in some far off place I will recognize your face. I won't say good-bye my friend, For you and I will meet again."

"I want her more than diamonds, I want her more than gold. I want her more than anything Anyone could hold."

"Last dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain. I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again."

"Oh, my, my. Oh, hell, yes. Honey, put on that party dress. Buy me a drink, sing me a song. Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long."

"You belong among the wildflowers. You belong in a boat out at sea. you belong with your love on your arm. You belong somewhere you feel free."

"But let me get to the point, let's roll another joint, And turn the radio loud, I'm too alone to be proud. You don't know how it feels, You don't know how it feels, to be me."
