When Connie comes it feels like a freight train
She knows how to keep your long train runnin'
While making you a physical wreck
She takes em' down on the sideline
She says, "get it up baby be a real straight shooter"
She makes them all feel fineHer momma cries
How can it be where did i go wrong
She used to be such a good girl
Don't play with fire unruly child
Out on her own running awayJohnny's drinking down on the corner
Don't do no homework homeboy no way
He found a gun in the graveyard
He's going to be a big man someday
Can't wait to get in a fightHis daddy says
How can it be where did i go wrong
You're playing with fire unruly child
Out on your own running awayPlaying with fire
The more you play the flames get higher
You're gonna get burned unruly child
Unruly child you're gonna get burnedThe preacher says
Mama says I'm playing with fire
Sheriff says I'm going to jail
Lecture from a small town preacher
Leaves my soul a reservation in hell
Teacher says I'm not doing better
Can't wait to tell me I'm gonna fail
See the eyes inside the other side of the mirror
The only one who knows you wellLife's just a game, remember how to play it
It's never who you hate, but it could be who you love
You gotta learn to keep your heart youngI want to live like an Unruly Child
I'm gonna take you down to the land of the wild
Where we can live the life of an Unruly ChildHey mister don't you point that finger
I look around and I see that the whole world
You see yourself growing older
Accepting that it's time to retire
But I'm never gonna lose the love I saw as a child
Never gonna lose that fightLife's just a game, remember how to play it
It's never who you hate, but it could be who you love
You gotta learn to keep your heart youngI want to live like an Unruly Child
I really don’t follow the rules
I'm really not here to make you smile
I just wanna do, just what that I want to
Without fools at my sideBut I had learned a lesson
You can’t stop running forward
Doesn’t matter where you came from
Or what the fuck is said about you(Wild child) wild child
I have anger in my eyes(Wild child) wild child
No one will disturb my life(Wild child) wild child
I’ll not give you one more try(Wild child) wild child
And I’ll keep on running wildI am about to pull that trigger
With all the fools on my wayRunning wild, running wild
Running wildThere are certain things
And if you don’t believe yourself
I'm dreaming tonight, I'm living back homeRight!Take me back to a south Tallahasse
Down cross the bridge to my sweet sassafrassy
Can´t stand up on my feet in the city
Gotta get back to the real nitty grittyYes sir, no sir
Sweathog ready to make a silk purse
From a J Paul Getty and his ear
With her face in her beerHome sweet homeGet out in the field
And my feet in the ghettoStand up, sit down
It ain't no good when the bossman
While cities lie at their feet
When you're rockin' the streetHome sweet homeMama, take me home sweet home
(I’ll tell you what I’m talking about!)Making love at 17, yeah we had the luck
But we traded 'em toys for other joys
And we didn’t give a... (whoah oh oh)I took a chance at the high school dance
Never knowing wrong from right
And that same show 40 years ago
Being televised tonight'Cause journey from inside my head to the Taj Mahal
I went from never having none to want to have it allI wanna keep that dream alive
And eat that honey from the hive
With all the noise and all the clamour
No surprise, you know I am aLegendary Child
(I think that what I’m trying to say!)Is sticks and stones may break your bones
I drop a dime, and every time,
I get myself a nickel’s change (whoah oh oh)They say we don’t know jack
At the plant we proved them wrong
and sold them for a songAnd if Satan had a lady friend her name was Mary Jane
I never wondered why she tried to drive us quite insaneAnd how we got that golden fleece
From toking on that pipe of peace
There is a God ‘cause I got me aLegendary Child
Or pay the priceWhat I want I take
There's nothing you can doI'm a problem child
I'm a problem child, yes I am
The seed is sownWhat I want I stash
And I never missI'm a problem child, hey
Just runnin' wildJust watch your stepEvery night
Your time is throughCause I'm a problem child
(Problem child, problem child)
(Problem child, problem child)
(Problem child, problem child)
(Problem child, problem child)
(Problem child, problem child)
What child is this, who, laid to rest
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him Lord
The Babe, the Son of MarySo bring Him incense, gold, and myrth
Come peasant, king, to own Him
The King of kings, salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone HimThis, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him Lord
The Babe, the Son of MaryWhat child is this, who, laid to rest
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass, when a child is born A silent wish sails the seven seas
The winds of change whisper in the trees
And the walls of doubt tumble tossed and torn
This comes to pass when a child is born A rosy hue settles all around
You start to feel you're on solid ground
For a spell or two no one seems forlorn
This comes to pass, when a child is born It's all a dream, an illusion now
It must come true, sometime soon somehow
All across the land, dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass, when a child is born A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass, when a child is born This comes to pass ...
Not lost every ounce of innocence
I still fight to hold onto my youth
I won't give into death like youKingdom of youthfull minded
We still fight to hold onto our youth
We won't give into death like youWe may have nothing to show
But with the heart of children
We need nothingThey say we've wasted our lives
They say we're wasting our time
But with the heart of children
We have everythingWith the heart of a child
Children live foreverWe won't be mislead
We won't be mislead (by broken dreams of wealth)
We won't be misleadWe will live forever
Children live foreverWe are not a product of society
We are not a sick, dying breed
For the meek will inherit the earth
As the weak watches riches burnWe may have nothing to show
But with the heart of children
We need nothingThey say we've wasted our lives
They say we're wasting our time
But with the heart of children
With the heart of a child we will live forever
With the heart of a child we will live forever
Everlasting love forever skies of blue
Never ending just a means for start[Chorus]
For the warmth inside your smile
It was you who made living all worth the while
It was you who made living all worth the while
I thank you my childWith the touch of your hand
Amidst confusion I can see enough to understand
Oh lovin' you child it's the best[Chorus]You're all & everything to me
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
As the bright blue skyNow and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
I'd probably break down and cryOhh! Ohh! Sweet child o' mine
Ohh! Ohh! Sweet love of' mineShe's got eyes of the bluest skies
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of painHer hair reminds me of a warm safe place
And pray for the thunder and the rain
To quietly pass me byOhh! Ohh! Sweet child o' mine
Ohh! Ohh! Sweet love of mine (3x)Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go now
Where do we go now
Where do we go (sweet child)
Where do we go now
Where do we go now
Where do we go now
Where do we go now
Where do we go now, now, now, now, now, now, now, nowSweet childSweet child o' mine
So the
A King
Was born today
Because
Of Christmas DayWhile shepherds
Watch
They found no place
A King
Was born today
Because
Was bornHark
A King
Was born today
Because
Monday's child is fair of face
And Tuesday's child is full of a grace
Wednesday's child is full of woe
But Thursday's child has far to goThings look mighty black for Thursday's child
Trouble docks the track of Thursday's child
This world could be a wonderful place
But not when you wear a Thursday's faceI never know which way I'm bound, I'm Thursday's child
Heartbreak hangs around for Thursday's child
I'll always blamed for what I was named
But still I'm not ashamed, I'm Thursday's childI never know which way I'm bound, I'm Thursday's child
Heartbreak hangs around for Thursday's child
Across from me sat the new emperor, Hardly 13
And I asked him why he cried No one stays around anymore, I cannot guess why
In my world they should try I asked how loyal are your subjects
"Not" was the child king's reply, "Rarely will they comply" "I always search for new subjects, Still I'm loathsome to try"
"If they served me too long they would fortify" Chorus:
That everyone here's indifferent
So I must move on" "So I fear a dependence"
So if they leave me I won't die" "I always search for new subjects
In my world they should try" Chorus:
Rain falls from heaven above. What you see. Nothing
can save you. Mother nature is violently disturbed.
When lightening cracks the sky. Sirens scream in the
night. Could this be a dream? Panic spreads throughout
the night. Compelled by fear as the void draws near.
Winds collide. Listening to the broadcast. Warning to
take cover. Sought out b an unstoppable force. Such a
sound of a thousand chariots. What a loss. It is the
cost. The dead are so many. Miles and miles of
devastation. Fire burns deep with the twilight.
Cataclysmic whirlwinds. Breath of god. You're going to
die. Thunder shakes the ground. It leaves you
trembling in fear. Onward this child of the sky.
Destruction is all that's left behind. Devastated.
Lightning turns the night to day. Structures are blown
I was born amidst the purple waterfalls.
I was weak, yet not unblessed.
Dead to the world. Alive for the journey.
One night I dreamt a white rose withering,
a newborn drowning a lifetime loneliness.
I dreamt all my future. Relived my past.
A witnessed the beauty of the beast"Where have all the feelings gone?
Why has all the laughter ceased?Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless the child
Think of me long enough to make a memory
Come bless the child one more timeHow can I ever feel again?
Given the chance would I return?I've never felt so alone in my life
As I drank from a cup which was counting my time
There's a poison drop in this cup of Man
To drink it is to follow the left hand path"Where have all the feelings gone?
Why is the deadliest sin - to love as I loved you?
Now unblessed, homesick in time,
soon to be freed from care, from human pain.
My tale is the most bitter truth:
Time pays us but with earth & dust, and a dark, silent grave.
Remember, my child: Without innocence the cross is only iron,
