Lost Tracks 2 Lyrics

Hey yo

Went to town to find her

And found her where she said she will be

Standing on the corner,

Waiving haute couture

Looking back at me.

 

When I got to her house,

Played a game of cat and mouse

Not giving up

Wanted to get closer,

Put my arms around and hold her but

She’s not in to me.

 

And she’s messing with my mind

Messing with my mind

Messing with my mind

Leaving a note behind

Keeps me coming back,

Good girls are hard to find.

 

Took her back to my place

Smile on my face

Gonna have a good time

She said don’t drink

Don’t shag

Don’t snort

Don’t smoke

What’s on your mind.

 

I did not disclose

What I proposed

Making my moves

Taking my time

And then she left

Door closed

Leaving a note behind

 

And she’s messing with my mind

Messing with my mind

Messing with my mind

Leaving a note behind

Wishin she’d come back,

Good girls are hard to find.

 

Life is filled with promises

If you love and live life right.

Overflowing with good memories

Never looking back

Never looking back

 

Her note said:

Hey yo Don’t ya want to know

Where you life is coming down

Hey yo Don’t ya want to know

Where you life is coming down

Hey yo Don’t ya want to know

Where you life is coming down

Hey yo Don’t ya want to know

Where you life is coming down

Mama’s prayer

Her Daddy left home for war today.

Mama knelt down and started to pray

With a tear in her eye, be by his side.

Please bring our Daddy back alive.

 

Well I never ever heard my mama pray

But she got in touch with the Lord that day

Then she got up off her knees

Kick some butt, come home please.

 

Daddy went to a foreign land

All of hells fury was in that town

Daddy got hit, yeh he went down

But an unseen hand kept Daddy around

 

Well I never have heard mymama pray

But she got in touch with the Lord that day

Then she got off her knees

Kick some butt, come home please.

 

Daddy came home from war today.

We all knelt down and started to pray

With a tear in her eye, he’s by our side

Thanks for bringing our Daddy back alive.

 

Well I never ever heard my mama pray

But she got in touch with the Lord that day

Then she got up off her knees

Said kick some butt

Well I never ever heard my mama pray but she got in touch with the Lord that day then she got up off her knees

Kick some butt, come home please.

 

We love our troops, yeah

Everywhere

Everywhere I go tonight

I wish you were by my side

Cause you’re the only one I love,

The only one missing in my life.

 

Everyday you told me

You loved me so,

Then suddenly

I didn’t think that you would lie

Until you walked right out and left me cryin.

You know what they say about old lovers

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Those who let the right one get away

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Always feel a burning

Deep inside them

Memories that just don’t go away.

 

And I pray for you

Everyday I do

Never really get you out of my mind

If it bothers you

To think of me too

Whooooooooooooooo

Let’s get together one more time.

 

Then everywhere we go at night

Everywhere

Hand in hand

Holding on tight

Now there’s nothing missing

Now there’s nothing missing

In our lives

In our lives

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Lives

Red dress blues

Well see the girl with the red dress on

She’s standing right there where she belongs

As anyone can plainly see

That little girl she belongs to me

Yeh

 

When I’m with that little girl

I feel fine

When we start to dance we lose track of time

Give me that girl and rock ‘n’ roll

Turns me on from head to toe

Yeah

 

Well see that girl with the blue dress on 

Standing right there where she belongs

As anyone can plainly see

That little girl she belongs to me

Yeh

 

I say yeh 

I say yeh 

I say yeh yeh

I say yeh yeh

Flanders field

Let me show you,

A lovely place in Flanders,

Lonely people, waiting for you to gather

And you wonder

Why limp watches are hanging

On charred tree stumps

On charred tree stumps                

Look around and see,

Where love and hate has left them

Tell yourselves

That you won’t forget them

 

When you return

Raise up your voices

To anyone who will hear

Hear

 

And you wonder

Why limp watches are hanging

On charred tree stumps

On charred tree stumps

 

Let me show you,

A lovely place in Flanders,

Lonely people, waiting for you to gather

 

And you wonder

Why limp watches are hanging

On charred tree stumps

On charred tree stumps  

On charred tree stumps

On charred tree stumps

stumps

She’s got rhythm

Whose that girl, I gotta know

We gotta groove before we get old

Don't know who can't call her by name

She's starts to move and calling my name

 

Slow foot Sue is the dame

She got the rhythm, now I got the same

Turn me on rock ‘n’roll

She starts to move, grabbin my soul

 

Whose that girl, I gotta know

We gotta groove before we get old

Don't know who can't call her by name

She's starts to move and calling my name

Maybe next time

Had to be blind

to let love walk out on me.

I didn’t see

You’re not hanging around

Left a hole in me

I didn’t realize

She brings out the man in me.

  

Everytime I see you

I just turn and look your way.

What you did

And she won’t stay

What can I say

Say you’re sorry for acting that way

When I call you on the phone

You’ve got nothing to say.

You keep calling every night and day

I didn’t realize

You bring out the man in me.

 

Maybe next time

I won’t treat you like before.

Maybe next time

You won’t walk out the door.

Well give me your best time or baby

Say no more.

 

Maybe next time

I won’t treat you like before.

Maybe next time

You won’t walk out the door.

Well give me your best time or baby

Well give me your best time or baby

Say no more.

 

Maybe next time.

Light up the land

You offer your light,

whenever you can

To your brothers and sisters

Throughout the land

When life was darkest for me my friend

You stood close by me

And offered your hand

 

Light up the land

Light up the land

It only takes one,

to first take a stand

Whose not afraid to really care

Then hand in hand,

We’ll light up the land

 

To those who are weary

I’ll be your best friend

To those who are hungry

I’ll bring you bread

 

When you are troubled

And being pulled down

I’ll reach out to you

Pull you up from the ground

 

Light up the land

Light up the land

It only takes one,

to first take a stand

Whose not afraid to really care

Then hand in hand,

We’ll light up the land

 

When my voice

Is someday still,

There will be others

To climb the hill

As their voices

Start to swell,

Together we’ll stand

And sing you this tale

 

Light up the land

Light up the land

It only takes one,

to think that he can

Whose not afraid to really care

Then hand in hand,

We’ll light up the land

 

Light up the land

Light up the land

It only takes one,

to think that he can

Whose not afraid to really care

Then hand in hand,

We’ll light up the land

 

Then hand in hand,

We’ll light up the land

 

Then hand in hand,

We’ll light up the land

No one ever knows

A young man, his wife,

All alone

Oh, so pretty

 

In the corner of the room

Mother cat with her kitties.

No one ever knows

No one ever goes

To pay the people,

It’s a pity.

 

Say it over

Until it’s over

Say listen people

But they don’t hear.

 

Mister Lamay

Said today

I’m going to go out

And free them.

 

It’s been a week or so a-go

Mister Elliot Snow

his words

Were just to please them

Now he’s quite content

His words were well spent

But they’ll be no one to hear them.

 

Say it over

Until it’s over

Say listen people

But they don’t hear

 

I wonder

I wonder

Ohohohoh

I wonder

I wonder

Ohohoh.

Smokey

Smokey,

You damn old bear       

I said Smokey,

You damn old bear

 

Hiking-in-the-woods

Near the lake-side shore

Where I heard his awful roar

That bear was all about

Sayin

Don't leave til your fires out

 

Smokey,

You damn old bear       

Smokey,

You damn old bear

 

Growling and a prowling, and--

Sniffing the air

 

Went on to my girlfriend’s house

She can be as quiet as mouse

I heard that bear come around

Saying

Leave til your fires out

 

Smokey,

You damn old bear       

Smokey,

You damn old bear

 

Growling and a prowling, and--

Sniffing the air

 

Cruising down the road

With my top down

When I heard that siren sound

That bear was all about

Sayin

Don’t leave til your fires out

 

Smokey,

You damn old bear       

I said Smokey,

You damn old bear

 

Growling and a prowling, and--

Sniffing the air

Growling and a prowling, and--

Sniffing the air
