Maybe, if I pray every night
You'll come back to me
And maybe, if I cry everyday
You'll come back to stay
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, maybe
(maybe,maybe maybe)


Maybe, if I hold your hand
I'd be at your command
And maybe, if I kissed your lips
You'll be at my command
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, maybe
(maybe maybe maybe)


I've prayed and prayed, to the Lord
To send you back, my love
But instead, you came to me
Only in.... my-y-y dreams


Maybe, if I pray every night
You'll come back to me
And maybe, if I cry every day
You'll come back to stay
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, maybe


(Maybe, maybe maby)
Maybe (maybe maybe maybe)
Maybe (maybe maybe maybe)
Maybe (maybe maybe maybe)

Enfer (La Double Vie De Véronique)

I smell a rat, baby

I smell a rat, baby

I smell a rat, baby
You better watch out

I smell a rat, baby

You won't tell me where you been
Whiskey runnin' on down to gin

I smell a rat, baby
I smell a rat, baby
You better watch out
I smell a rat, baby

You came stumblin' down the hall
You bumped your head up against the wall
Knocked out drunk, that ain't all
I know you been havin' yourself a ball

I smell a rat, baby
I smell a rat, baby
You better watch out
I smell a rat, baby

Oh, you better smell that rat
Oh, look at them old pillow rats walkin' around
Oh, I know you're knocked out, but that's alright
Oh, you big ol' house rat
Oh, look out there, rat, don't fool with me

You won't tell me you been no place
Fingernails scratchin' all over your face

I smell a rat, baby
I smell a rat, baby
You better watch out
I smell a rat, baby

Well, oh, that old rat
I'll get me some rat poison to take care of you, baby
Now, I know what you puttin' down
Out on the other side of town

Oh, smell a rat, baby
Ooh, great big rat
Better watch out
I smell a rat
I smell a rat
Oh, smelly rat
Big rat

“I want to know how it feels / 'Cause I / I only play act for-real”

 I

I think I know how I feel
'Cause I
I only play it for-real
You should be picking me up
Instead you're dragging me down
Flying over my head
You're landing all over town

You
You know that I try
Try to tell you the truth
Oh baby don't make me cry
You should be picking me up
Instead you're dragging me down
Now I'm missing you more (more)
'Cause baby you're not around
Now that you're not around

I
I want to know how it feels
'Cause I
I only play for-real
You should be picking me up
Instead your dragging me down
I could be giving you love (love)
But you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around
Glad that you're not around

I can't seem to make you mine | The Seeds

I can't seem to make you mine

Kiss and run all the time
Flyin' around like a bee
Hurtin' everything you see
I tried everything I know
To make you wanna love me so
The only thing you do
Is try to put the hurt on me

Can't you see what you're doin' to me
You fill my heart with misery
With every breath and step I take
I'm more in love with you

I can't go on like this
A little bit of love, not one kiss
I gotta have your love everyday
A love that's real that'll stay

I can't seem to make you mine
I can't seem to make you mine

I can't seem to make you mine
I can't seem to make you mine

Come back, baby, to me
End my misery
I give you love night and day
Don't ever ever go away

I can't seem to make you mine
I can't seem to make you mine

Come back baby, 'cause I'm all alone
Come back darlin', 'cause I need your love
Come back, 'cause I wanna love ya
Girl, I wanna love ya tonight

I can't seem to make you mine
I can't seem to make you mine
I can't seem to make you mine
I can't seem to make you mine

 

 

 You ain't nothin' but a hound dog

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time

Just cryin' all the time

Well, you ain't never caught no rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine
Well, they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie

Yeah they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
Yeah, you ain't never caught no rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time

Well, you ain't never caught no rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

Well they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
Yeah, they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
Well, you ain't never caught no rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

Well they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
You know they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
Yeah, you ain't never caught no rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
Well, you ain't never caught no rabbit
You ain't no friend of mine

''The original singer of "Hound Dog" is American blues and R&B artist Big Mama Thornton (Willie Mae Thornton). She recorded the track on August 13, 1952, and it was released in early 1953.


While Elvis Presley made the song a global rock-and-roll phenomenon when he released his version in 1956, Thornton’s original recording—produced by Johnny Otis and written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller—was a massive R&B hit''

 I Never Asked to Be Your Mountain

 Tim Buckley ‧ 1967

I never asked to be a mountain, I never asked to fly
Remember when you came to me and told me of his lie?
You didn't understand my love, you don't know why I try

And rain was falling on that day, and I'm the reason why

The flying placey sails the tide and tells me of my child
Wrapped in bitter tales and heartache, he begs me just to smile
Oh, he never asked to be a mountain, he never asked to fly
And through his eye he combs his love and tells him not to cry

She says, "Your scoundrel father flies with a dancer called the queen
And with her stolen cards he plays and laughs but never wins"
Oh, the child dreams to be his hands in the counting of his pain
But only barren breasts he feels for her milk will never drain

As I fly I can't remember
Where I saw the rain
Could it be that a laughter drove me down again?

Charming dancer, will you stop, stop and talk to me?
Is it me that you feel in your dreams, or will you see?
In midnight gazes I found you far from me
If you lead me on, please lead me down

Oh, flying, flying fish, please flutter by my door
Yes, you can drink my lines, but first you read my eyes
Each one is titled "I'm Drowning Back to You"
I can't swim your waters and you can't walk my lands
I'm sailing all your sins and I'm climbing all my fears
And soon I will die

I never asked to be a mountain, I never asked to fly
Remember when you came to me and told me of his lie?
You didn't understand my love, you don't know why I try
