Frankie & Johnny

[l.d.] "we'll take it a bit slower"
"this is, this is the, huh, this is the first song i ever learned, actually"
Frankie and johnny were sweethearts
Lordy, how they could love
Swore to be true to each other
Yeah, true to the skies above
He was her man, wouldn't do her no wrong
And frankie and johnny went walkin'
And johnny had on a new suit
Yeah, frankie spent one-hundred dollar notes
Just to make her man look cute
He was her man, he wouldn't do her no wrong
Frankie went over to the barroom
Stopped for a bottle of beer
Said to the old bartender man
"has my lover johnny man been here?"
"he was my man, lord, but he'd been doin' me wrong, so wrong."
Yeah frankie looked over the transom door
And then to her great surprise
There sat her lover man johnny

Frankie And Johnny

(Traditional)
[L.D.] We'll take it a bit slower
This is, this is the, huh, this is the first song I ever learned, actually
Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts
Lordy, how they could love
Swore to be true to each other
Yeah, true to the skies above
He was her man, wouldn't do her no wrong
And Frankie and Johnny went walkin'
And Johnny had on a new suit
Yeah, Frankie spent one-hundred dollar notes
Just to make her man look cute
He was her man, he wouldn't do her no wrong
Frankie went over to the barroom
Stopped for a bottle of beer
Said to the old bartender man
Has my lover Johnny man been here?
He was my man, Lord, but he'd been doin' me wrong, so wrong.

Born Under The Wrong Sign

Nazareth
Born under the wrong sign
Trouble is my middle name
Born under the wrong sign
Every day turns out the same
But its so hard to see the light
When youre born under the wrong sign
Wrong sign
Wrong sign
Cast outa the wrong mold
Sorry is no way that I feel
Cast outa the wrong mold
Singin my blues is for real
But its so hard to see the light
When youre born under the wrong sign
Born under the wrong sign
Trouble is my middle name
Born under the wrong
Every day turns out the same
But its so hard to see the light

Right/Wrong

THIS...IS...MY...LIFE
[Chorus]
(Right and wrong)
Whatever which way they go (right and wrong)
Whatever which way they go (right and wrong)
Whatever which way they go (right and wrong)
Whatever which way they go (right and wrong)
[Verse 1]
Made me a leader before I was ready to lead
Took away my hunger, but didn't give me greed
Made me successful, when I just wanted to be heard
Give me the light, cause all I need is the word
Give me a life, that I'm responsible for
I'll give him what's right, cause I'm responsible for him
And into the night, I'm gonna be there with him
Facing a fight, I be right there with him
Ready for Heaven, cause I done been through the Hell
And since I was seven, I've had a story to tell
See God is great, and that's why I'm still livin'
He gave to me, so I'ma keep on givin'

IV. Tertium Quid

True, Excellency—as his Highness says,
Though she's not dead yet, she's as good as stretched
Symmetrical beside the other two;
Though he's not judged yet, he's the same as judged,
So do the facts abound and superabound:
And nothing hinders that we lift the case
Out of the shade into the shine, allow
Qualified persons to pronounce at last,
Nay, edge in an authoritative word
Between this rabble's-brabble of dolts and fools
Who make up reasonless unreasoning Rome.
"Now for the Trial!" they roar: "the Trial to test
"The truth, weigh husband and weigh wife alike
"I' the scales of law, make one scale kick the beam!"
Law's a machine from which, to please the mob,
Truth the divinity must needs descend
And clear things at the play's fifth act—aha!
Hammer into their noddles who was who
And what was what. I tell the simpletons
"Could law be competent to such a feat

Is It Wrong Me to Make You Love Me?

Is it wrong me to say I love you?
Is it wrong me to tell I miss you?
Is it wrong me to hold you tight?
Is it wrong me?

When rainbow of love sprang up again
In the long cold broken heart
Love does not bloom only for you
So share with me

Is it wrong me to say I love you?
Is it wrong me to tell I miss you?
Is it wrong me to hold you tight?
Is it wrong me?

Don't regret all winter's left
It won't come back even you turn the time
Love does not bloom only for her
Here I'm waiting

Patted Fat Cats

They want deregulation done by government.
But from their mouths they shout and say,
They want the government away.

They want deregulation done by government.
But from their mouths they shout and say,
They want the government away.

What's wrong with greedy people,
Who just want to feed their greed.
And when the greeding stops,
They want to blame someone about it!
And...
What's wrong with greedy people,
Who just want to feed their greed.
And when the greeding stops,
They want to blame someone about it!

They don't want no more taxes.
But they want to live relaxed.

What's Wrong

We fail and we lie..
But what can we do?
I got scared and I ran away
But where can I go?
But what if we fail to be one?
When there's no one to tell us what's wrong..
What's wrong?
What's wrong?
What's going on?
What's wrong?
What's wrong?
What's going on..?
We fail and we lie
But what can we do?
But what if we fail to be one?
When there's no one to tell us what's wrong
What's wrong?
What's going on?
What's wrong?
What's wrong?

It Hurts Me Too

So run here baby, put your little hands in mine
Ive got something to tell you
I know youre gonna change your mind
When things go wrong, so wrong with you
It hurts me too.
I want you, baby, just to understand
I dont wanna be your boss, baby
I just wanna be your man
When things go wrong, so wrong with you
It hurts me too.
Now when you go home, you dont have to get along
Come back to me, baby
Where I live thats where you belong
When things go wrong, so wrong with you
It hurts me too.
I love you baby, and you know that its true
I wouldnt mistreat you, baby
Nothing in this world is like you
Yes, when things go wrong, so wrong with you
It hurts me too

You're Right, I Was Wrong

Should've listened when you said I'd miss you
Should've listened but I could not hear
You said I'd want you back
I said not a chance
Now I can see I was so blind
You're right I was wrong
To ever leave you
I made a mistake
I'm sorry now
You're right I was wrong
To ever let you go
Now I know, now I know
You're right, I was wrong
Couldn't see it when I had you with me
Couldn't see that I had everything
And know I see it clear
And now you're not here
You said someday I'd change my mind
You're right I was wrong
To ever leave you
