Lie to me and tell me everything is all right
Lie to me and tell that you'll stay here tonight
Tell me that you'll never leave
And I'll just try to make believe
That everything you tell me is true

Lie to me, go ahead and lie to me

Lie to me, it doesn't matter anymore
It could never be what it was before
If I can't hold on to you
Leave me with somethin' I can hold onto
For just a little while won't you let me be

Anyone can see
That you love him more than me
But right now baby let me pretend
That our love will never end

Lie to me, go ahead and lie to me

. . .



Look at the man with the smile on his face
Looks like he's always feelin' good
Sometimes you might want to take his place
And sometimes I think that you would

When the sun is goin' down And there is no place to hide
Even in the brightest light
You might lean toward the darker side

Look at the people, they learn how to lie so easy
They learn how to lie to get what they need
And after they got what they needed
It turns into a simple case of greed

When they no longer feel ashamed
And they've lost all sense of pride

Misery, love's company And it's lonely on the darker side

And when the party is over
And the music has died
You'll be dancin' to the music, baby
Somewhere on the darker side
Somewhere on the darker side

. . .



Good mornin' little schoolgirl
Can I go home with you
Tell your mama and your daddy
That I'm a little school boy too
Baby I love ya', I just can't help myself
Your so good lookin' pretty baby
I don't need nobody else
Good mornin' little school girl
Can I go home with you
ooo, ooo, ooowee

I'm gonna leave you baby
About the break of the day
On account of the way you treat me
I've got to stay away
Good mornin' little schoolgirl
Can I go home with you
Tell you mama and your daddy
I'm a little school boy too
Come on home pretty baby
Oh ya know I can't help myself
ooo, ooo, ooowee

I'm gonna buy me an airplane
And fly all over your town
And tell everybody, baby
Lord knows you've been puttin' me down
I can't stand it baby
Just can't stand it baby
Just can't help myself
Your so young and pretty
But your in love with somebody else
Good morin' little school girl
Can I go home with you
ooo, ooo, ooowee
Oh, baby what you do to me
Oh, I can't help myself

I wonder about her, I wonder where she went from here
Still wonder about her, but nothings comin' too clear
Since she left me all alone my days go by like years

Well I'm thinkin' about her and all the things she used to say
Still I'm thinkin' about her but something's getting in the way
I remember when she told me she would up and leave me someday

I drive around in circles through the city
Just waitin' for the lights to change
But right about when midnight hits me
Moonlight gets me feelin' kind of crazy

I wonder about her, does she still wear the same old ring
I still wonder about her and I know it ain't no big thing
Well she left me all alone now and I'm just waiting for my phone to ring

I've been dreaming about her, I guess I never Really knew
That living without her was more than I could ever do
'cause she ain't comin' back, no she ain't comin' back
No she ain't comin' back 'cause there's nothin' left to come back to

. . .



Yeah I'm Tired of sighing
Tired of worrying you too
I've made up my mind
What I'm gonna do
I've got my clothes and a matchbox
Gonna forget about you

I've tried to tell you many times
But I never could do it
You believe me baby, this time I'm through
I got my clothes and a matchbox
I'm gonna forget about you

Now when things get harder and rough on you
You don't try to get me back, baby
'Cause baby I'm through

I've got my clothes and a matchbox
I'm gonna forget about you

. . .



Here I come, I'm Comin' for a taste of your love
Here I come, baby, because I Like what you do for me
Little by little, bit by bit, I'm falling in love all over again

Here I come, I'm comin' for a taste of your love
Here I come now, baby, just like I did before
Well I'm comin' back 'cause this time I'm Sure

It takes two to make it and I know you can take it again

Here I come, I'm back for a taste of your love
Here I come, here I come back for ya now

What you've been, just come down on me
You've got the lock pretty baby, but I've got the key
Little by little, bit by bit, I'm fallin' all over again

Here I come, I'm Fallin' for a taste of your love
Here I come now, baby, back for a taste of your love
Here I come, for a taste of your love

. . .



Seems like now days ain't nothin' meant to last
One day you've got it all and then it disappears so fast
And you know our love is on and off again
Well, I know you wanna quit me baby
But a quitter never wins

Well, you've walked out on our lovin'
But I've stayed through thick and thin
And you know our love is on and off again
I know you want to quit me, baby
But a quitter never wins

Seems like now days love is a word that no one means
Ya' said you'd never leave me
Then ya' upped and walked right out on me
And now our love is on and off again
Well, I know you wanna quit me
But a quitter never wins

Well, I know you wanna quit me baby
but a quitter never wins
a quitter never wins

. . .



I'm the biggest fool there ever was, I let you go
Now I can't survive without your touch, I need you so
Now baby all you've got to do
Is to tell me that you need me too

I hit the ground runnin'
Back to you

Well, I'd rather die a thousand deaths
Than to loose you love
But now I'm drowning in my loneliness
I can rise above
Well, just forgive me this one last time
And tell me baby your still mine

I hit the ground runnin' back to you

. . .



I used to hang out down at Jack's Pool Hall
You go down there and don't do nothin' at all
If you wanted to play some cards there was a game in the back
If you wanted to shot or somethin' you went and talked to Jack
If you had a little money you was a grade A fool
There was a guy down there who used to shoot a little pool

Rack 'em up
Till' the day he was dead that all they ever said
Rack 'em up

He didn't own a TV set, didn't own a car
He ate what whatever Jack was makin' back behind the bar
They said he had a wife, but she left him in tears
He hadn't been home in twenty five years

Rack 'em up

They came from all over thinkin' they we're pretty hot
Put all their money on the table, wanna play the best we got
Nine in the corner, five in the side
Take a hundred dollar bill and just let it ride
I tell him listen son, ain't no disaster
There ain't no shame in being beat by a master

. . .



When I'm all alone
When I'm feelin' blue
No one understands me, baby
Nobody but you
Through all the sleepless nights
And the rainy day till' the sun is nowhere in view
The only way I make it through is when I come to you

And in my darkest hour, when the midnight shadows fall
Baby you got the power to make the angels come to call
I just hold you in my arms
And let the music in my heart play the whole night through
When I come to you, I felt so brand new, when I come to you

When I come to you, you make it all right again
When I come to you, you keep me from the howlin' wind
and I feel brand new, when I come to you

. . .



Oh, there's got to be a change
Things just can't stay the same
If I got any worse off
I'd have myself to blame

I've played the blues so long now
There ain't nothin' left for me to do
I just can't give it up
If I do my life would be through

Well now I've been to Kentucky, Chicago too
All over St. Louis, ain't nothin left to do baby
But I'll play the blues for you, yes I will

Well I've been down to Texas
To the international revenue
I ain't got no money now, honey now
Ain't nothin' left to do
Well I'll play the blues for you

. . .



You lay me down, whisper in my ear
Well, it may be my name you call
But it's his name I hear

You promised me through thick and thin
You told me you loved me, you told me a lie
'cause you love him

And I'm missin' your love every day
I'm missin' your love every way
Though your here with me,
I'm still missin' your love

And when we talk, you look into my eyes
Your talkin to me but baby I can see
He's on your mind

And I'm missin' your love every day
I'm missin' your love every way
Though your here with me, I'm still missin' your love
I reach out for you and you turn away
It takes all I can do to make it through the day
And I'm missin' your love And I'm missin' your love every day
I'm missin' your love every way
Though your here with me,
I'm still missin' your love
