CONNECT the LYRICS II

TIME IS on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is

Now you always say
That you want to be free
But you'll come running back You'll come running back
You'll come running back to me

I've had my share of life's ups and downs.
But fate's been kind, the downs have been few
I guess you could say that I've been lucky
well, I guess you could say it's all because of you.

If anyone should ever write my life story. For whatever reason there might be.
ooo, you'll be there between each line of pain and glory.
Cause you're the best thing that ever happened To ME
Ah, you're the best thing that ever happened TO ME.
Gladys Knight and the Pips

My life, it don't count for nuthin'
When I look at this world I feel so small
My life, it's only a season
A passing September that no one will recall.

But I gave joy to my mother
I made my lover smile
And I can give comfort to my friends when they're huritng
I can make it seem better for a while

Iris Dement (I love that song)

Now if you feel that you can't go on
Because all your hope is gone
And your life is filled with confusion
And happiness is just an illusion
And your world around is tumblin' down
Darling, reach out
Reach out, for me.

I'll BE THERE to love and confort you
I'll be there with the love I'll see you through

-- Everybody sings this one but I like the David Johansen version best.

From Swimpy's

JOY TO the world
All the boys and girls now
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me


3Dog Night/Joy to the World

Guess who just got back today?
Those wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, haven't much to say
But man, I still think those cats are great

They were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
I told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy

The boys are back in town

Thin Lizzy

BACK IN the USSR
You don't know how lucky you are, boys
Back in the US
Back in the US
Back in the USSR

Well those Ukaraine girls
Really knock me out
They leave the west behind
And Moscow girls
Make me sing and shout
And Georgia's alway on my
My-my-my-myi-my-my-my-my-my-mind

Beatles

Well east coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear.
And the southern girls with the way that talk
they knock me out when I'm down there.

The midwest farmers' daughters
really make me feel alright.
And the northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night.

I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California girls.

(May not be two words to connect, but the two songs...you can't have one without the other.)

I'M DOWN
I'm down
I'm down

How can you laugh when you know I'm down?
How can you laugh when you know I'm down?

Beatles

I hate to say it but I told you so, don't mind my preachin' to you
I said "don't trust 'em, baby" now YOU KNOW
You don't know ev'rything there is to know in school.
Wouldn't believe me when I gave advice, I said that he was a tease
If you want help you better ask me now
So be sincere, convince me with a "pretty please"

Laugh, laugh, I thought I'd die
It seemed so funny to me
Laugh, laugh you met a guy who taught you how it feels to be
Lonely, oh so lonely

...Would you walk away
From a fool and his money, honey

IF YOU WANT it
anytime I can get it
But you better hurry cause it's goin fast
You better hurry cause it's goin fast

A fool and his money, honey
If you want here it is
Come and get it
But you better hurry cause it may not last
But you better hurry cause it may not last


(Badfinger/Fool and His Money

If you go away
Like I know you will
Blah blah balh blah blah and such like that


But if you stay
I'll make you a day like no day has been or will be again.

(That's all I can remember)

When you are near me like this,
You're much too hard to resist.
So, GO AWAY, little girl, before I beg you to stay.

(By one of Dys's faves, Donny Osmond. )

Well I'd rather see you dead, LITTLE GIRL
Than to be with another man
You better keep your head, little girl
Of I won't know where I am

You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand little girl
Catch you with another man
That's the end'a little girl


(Run for Your Life/Beatles)

Set me free, little girl,
All you gotta do is set me free, little girl,
You know you can do it if you try,
All you gotta do is set me free, free,
Free.

The Kinks

SET ME FREE
Why don't you babe?
Get out my life why don't you now.
You don't really need me
You just keep me hangin' on

Supremes or Vanilla Fudge!

Now I'm free
Freefalling
Yeah I'm free
Freefalling


Tom Petty

I'm free
I am free
And freedom tastes of reality

I'm free
I am free
And i 'm waiting for you to follow me.

The Who

I'M FREE to do what I want any old time
I'm free to do what I want any old time
So love me hold me love me hold me
I'm free any old time to get what I want



Stones

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, just my two front teeth
All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
So I can wish you Merry Christmas.
