Intro- C G/C C G
C F
There were nights when the wind was so cold
Dm Em
That my body froze in bed
Am
If I just listened to it
Dm F G
Right outside the window
C F
There were days when the sun was so cruel
Dm Em
That all the tears turned to dust
Am
And I just knew my eyes were
Dm F C G
Drying up forever
Em Am F G C
I finished crying in the instant that you left
Em Am F G
And I can't remember where or when or how
Em Am F G Fsus2 G
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made
C
But when you touch me like this
G/B

Fmaj7 Gsus4
That it's all coming back to me

There were moments of gold
Em F
And there were flashes of light

There were nights of endless pleasure

It was more than any laws allow

If I kiss you like this

And if you whisper like that
Am7 Dm7
It was lost long ago
Fmaj7 Gsus4
But it's all coming back to me

If you want me like this
G/B
And if you need me like that
Am7 Dm7
It was dead long ago
Fmaj7 Gsus4
But it's all coming back to me

It's so hard to resist
Fmaj7 Gsus4
And it's all coming back to me
Am7 Dm7
I can barely recall
F Dm/G Am
But it's all coming back to me now
G/B C/F F Dm
C F
There were those empty threats and hollow lies
Dm Em
And whenever you tried to hurt me
Am Dm
I just hurt you even worse
F G
And so much deeper
C F
There were hours that just went on for days
Dm Em Am
When alone at last we'd count up all the chances
Dm F C G
That were lost to us forever
Em Am F G C
But you were history with the slamming of the door
Em Am F G
And I made myself so strong again somehow
Em Am F G Fsus2
And I never wasted any of my time on you since then
C
But if I touch you like this
G/B
And if you kiss me like that
Am7 Dm7
It was so long ago
Fmaj7 Gsus4
But it's all coming back to me

If you touch me like this

There were moments of gold

C
When you touch me like this

It was gone with the wind
Fmaj7 Gsus4
But it's all coming back to me
C
When you see me like this
G/B
And when I see you like that
Am7 Dm7
Then we see what we want to see
Fmaj7 Gsus4
All coming back to me
Am7 Dm7
The flesh and the fantasies
Fmaj7 Gsus4
All coming back to me
Am7 Dm7
I can barely recall
Fmaj7 Gsus4
But it's all coming back to me now
C
If you forgive me all this

If I forgive you all that
Am7 Dm7
We forgive and forget
Fmaj7 Gsus4
And it's all coming back to me

When you see me like this

And I hate you for your lies and your covers
And I hate us for making good love to each other
And I love making you jealous but don't judge me

I'm just human
Don't judge me

intro - G / C / G / Am
verse - G / C/ G / Am x4
an old man turned 98, won the lottery and died the next day
it's a black fly in a new chardonney
it's a death row pardoned two minutes too late...
chorus- same as verse (x3)
its like rain on your wedding day
its a free ride when you've already paid
it's the good advice that you just didn't take
Bb / F / G
and who would have thought it figured
verse
traffic jams when you're already late
a no smoking sign on your cigarette break
its like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
its like meeting the man of your dreams then meeting his beautiful wife
chourus x2
Am/ G/ Am / C
life has a funny way of sneaking up on you when you think
every things ok and everything blows up in your face...
chorus
[Verse 1] F# C# G#m B (8X)
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me /
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kinda dumb with her finger and her /
Thumb in the shape of an "L" on her forehead /
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running /
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb /
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets /
You'll never know if you don't go You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus] F# B Cdim B (3X)
Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
F# E B
Only shooting stars break the mold
[Verse 2] F# C# G#m B (4X)
It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older /
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The waters getting warm so you might as well swim /
My world's on fire how about yours
That's the way I like it and I never get bored
[Chorus]
[Verse 3] F# C# G#m B (8X)
Somebody once asked, could I spare some change for gas
/I need to get myself away from this place /
I said yep what a concept I could use a little fuel myself /
And we could all use a little change /
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running /
Didn't make sense not to live for fun Y
our brain gets smart but your head gets dumb /
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets /
You'll never know if you don't go, go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus 3

There's a look I cant describe in your eyes
Bb F Am
Yes we could try, like we trid before
Bb
When you kept on telling me those lies
(F Am Bb C) x2
Do you remember..
F Am
There seemed no way to make up
Bb C
Cos it seemd your mind was set
F Am
And the way you looked it told me
Bb C
Its a look I know I'll never forget
Bb F
You could've come over to my side
Bb F
You could've let me know
Bb F Am
You could've tried to see the distance intues us
Bb
But it seemed too far for you to go
(F Am Bb C) x2
Do you remember..
Am Dm
Though all of my life
Am Dm
Is spite of all the pain
Am Dm
You trais people are funny sometimes
Bb
Cos they just can't wait
C
To get hurt again
(F Am Bb C) x2
Do you remember..
There things we won´t recall
Feelings well never find
It taken so long to see it
Cos we never seemed to have the time
There was always something more important to do
More important to say
But I love you, wasn't one of those things
And nao its too late
Do you remember... ?

I've lived a live that's full.
G Gm
I traveled each and every highway,
D A Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And more, much more than this, I did it m…………….y way.
D Dmaj7
Regrets, I've had a few,
D7 B7
But then again, too few to mention.
Em7 Em7/D
I did what I had to do,
Em7/Db A7 D
And saw it thru without exemption.
D D7
I planned each charted course,
G Gm
Each careful step along the byway,
D A Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And more, much more than this, I did it m___...y way.
D D7
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew,
G Gsus4 G
When I bit off more than I could chew,
Em A7
But thru it all, when there was doubt,
F# Bm7
I ate it up, and spit it out.
Em A
I faced it all, and I stood tall,
Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And did it m___...y way.
I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.
To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it m___y way.
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it m___y way!
It's the hard knock lCife (uh-huh) Dfor Eus
It's the hard knock lEife, Dfor Cus!!
Steada Treated,Cwe Dget Etricked
Steada kisses, Ewe gDet Ckicked
It's the hard knock life!! C D E
Verse
Just keep repeating C D E, E D C But here are the rest of the words-
From standin on the corners boppin
to drivin some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen
For droppin some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard
From the dope spot, with the smoke Glock
fleein the murder scene, you know me well
from nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell
But since when y'all z know me to fail? Fuck naw
Where all my z with the rubber grips, bust shots
And if you with me mom I rub on your tits, and what-not
I'm from the school of the hard knocks, we must not
let outsiders violate our blocks, and my plot
let's stick up the world and split it fifty/fifty, uh-huh
Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy, uh-huh
And sip the Cris' and get pissy-pissy
Flow infinitely like the memory of my Biggie, baby!
You know it's hell when I come through
The life and times of Shawn Carter
Volume 2, y'all z get ready
Chorus
Verse
I flow for those 'dro'ed out; all my z
locked down in the ten by fo', controllin the house
We live in hard knocks, we don't take over we borrow blocks
Burn em down and you can have it back daddy, I'd rather that
I flow for chicks wishin, they ain't have to strip to pay tuition
I see you vision mama, I put my money on the longshots
All my ballers that's born to clock
Now Imma be on top whether I perform or not
I went from lukewarm to hot; sleepin on futons and cots
to King Size, dream machines, the green fives
I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills
Then I put it down type braile
I'm tight grill with the phony, rappers y'all might feel we homies
I'm like still, y'all don't know me, shit!
I'm tight grill when my situation ain't improvin
I'm tryin to murder everything movin, feel me?!
Chorus
Verse
I don't KNOW how to sleep, I gotta eat, stay on my toes
Gotta a lot of beef, so logically, I prey on my foes
Hustling's still inside of me, and as far as progress
you'd be hard-pressed, to find another rapper hot as me
I gave you prophecy on my first joint, and y'all lamed out
Didn't really appreciate it, til the second one came out
So I stretched the game out, X'ed your name out
Put Jigga on top, and drop albums non-stop for ya, uh!
Chorus x2
... It's the hard knock life!!
................ it's the hard knock life!!

[Verse 2]
You took your time with the call,
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all,
but still, you're in my way
I beg, and borrow and steal
Have foresight and it's real
I didn't know I would feel it,
but it's in my way
Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot not, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?
Hey, I just met you,

LYRICS
**********
Call up, ring once, hang up the phone
To let me know you made it home
Don't want nothing to be wrong with part-time lover
If she's with me I'll blink the lights
To let you know tonight's the night
For me and you my part-time lover
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
If I'm with friends and we should meet
Just pass me by, don't even speak
Know the word's discreet when part-time lovers
But if there's some emergency
Have a male friend to ask for me
So then she won't peek its really you my part-time lover
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
I've got something that I must tell
Last night someone rang our doorbell
And it was not you my part-time lover
And then a man called our exchange
But didn't want to leave his name
I guess that two can play the game
Of part-time lovers
You and me, part-time lovers
But, she and he, part-time lovers

Intro-
Bmaj7 B7 Emaj7 [2X]
Do do-do-do do do
Verse 1-
Bmaj7 B7 Emaj7
As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
Bmaj7 Amaj7
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Bmaj7 B7
Just as hate knows love's the cure
Emaj7
You can rest your mind assure
G#m A#m D#7 G#m7 G#m6 C#m7 F#7
That I'll be loving you always
Verse 2-
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
Do know what I say is true
G#m A#m D#7 (G#m)
That I'll be loving you always
Chorus 1-
G#m D#7/A# B C#
(Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky)
Always
G#m D#7/A# B C#
(Until the ocean covers every mountain high)
Always
G#m D#7/A# B C#
(Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea)
G#m D#7/A# B [1- F9; to bridge]
Always [others- C#]
(Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream)
Bridge-
Emaj7 Bmaj7
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Emaj7 Dmaj9
Her acceptance is the way we came
Emaj7 Bmaj7
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
C#m7 A#m7/D# D#7 C#m9 F#13
To last through forever and another day (just)
Verse 3-
Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always
Verse 4-
As today I know I'm living but tomorrow
Could make me that past but that I mustn't fear
For I'll know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
'Cause I'll be loving you always
Chorus 2 [chorus chord progression continues to fade]-
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and sea just up and fly away
Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Chorus 3-
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through
Until the day that you are me and I am you
[repeat first two lines of chorus 1]
[piano solo]
Interlude-
We all know sometimes life's hate and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet your life times that and twice its double
That God knew exactly where He wanted you to be placed
So make sure when you say you're in it but not of it
You're not helping to make this Earth a place sometimes called Hell
Change your words into truths and then change that truth into love
And maybe our children's grandchildren
And their great-great-grandchildren will tell
I'll be loving you...
[repeat choruses 1, 2, 3]
Always...

Turn me on turn me off then you turn me back on by the weekend

I see those bubbles pop up like you're texting then they disappear
Lets cut through the shit then let's get to what we're doing here
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we last call kissing or will

Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand
[Instrumental]

I'm asking you baby cuz I'm tired of asking myself
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we-last call kissing, are we dancing in the kitchen,
baby tell me what it is or what it isn't?
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we last call kissing or will
we be reminiscing with each other for the next forty years
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand

Verse-
Am C G D
Hey girl, is he everything you wanted in a man?
Am
You know I gave you the world
C G D
You had me in the palm of your hand
Am
So why your love went away
C G D
I just can't seem to understand
Am
Thought it was me and you babe
C G
Me and you until at the end
D
But I guess I was wrong
Pre Corus;
Am
Don't want to think about it
C
Don't want to talk about it
G
I'm just so sick about it
D Am
Can't believe it's ending this way
Just so confused about it
C
Feeling the blues about it
G
I just can't do without ya
D Am
Tell me is this fair?
Corus-
C G
Is this the way it's really going
D Am
Is this how we say goodbye?
C G
Should've known better when you came around
D Am
That you were gonna make me cry

It's breaking my heart to watch you run around

'Cause I know that you're living a lie

That's okay baby 'cause in time you will find...

Comes all the way back around
Am C
What goes around, goes around, goes around
G D
Comes all the way back around
Repeat....Same Thing
Now girl, I remember everything that you claimed
You said that you were moving on now
And maybe I should do the same
Funny thing about that is
I was ready to give you my name
Thought it was me and you, babe
And now, it's all just a shame
And I guess I was wrong
Repeat Pre corus And Corus
Am C D
What goes around comes around.
Am C
What goes around comes around
G D
You shouldn't know that
What goes around comes around
You shouldn't know that
Repeat Pre corus and Corus
Am
You spend your nights alone
C
And he never comes home
G
And every time you call him
D
All you get's a busy tone
Am
I heard you found out
C
That he's doing to you
G
What you did to me
D
Ain't that the way it goes
Same thing-
You cheated girl
My heart bleeds girl
So it goes without saying that you left me feeling hurt
Just a classic case
A scenario
Tale as old as time
Girl you got what you deserved
D Am C G
And now you want somebody
To cure the lonely nights
You wish you had somebody
That could come and make it right
D Am
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey

I look around and
Sin City's cold and empty (oh)
No one's around to judge me (oh)
I can't see clearly when you're gone
I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights
No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch
I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night
Oh, when I'm like this, you're the one I trust (Hey, hey, hey)
I'm running out of time
'Cause I can see the sun light up the sky
So I hit the road in overdrive, baby, oh
The city's cold and empty (oh)
No one's around to judge me (oh)
I can't see clearly when you're gone
I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights
No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch
I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night
Oh, when I'm like this, you're the one I trust
I'm just walking by to let you know (by to let you know)
I can never say it on the phone (say it on the phone)
Will never let you go this time (ooh)
I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights
No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch

No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch

On a beautiful day
Daydream
I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day
[Lupe Fiasco]
As I spy from behind my giant robot's eyes
I keep him happy 'cause I might fall out if he cries
Scared of heights so I might pass out if he flies
Keep him on autopilot 'cause I can't drive
Room enough for one I tell my homies they can't ride
Unless they sittin on the shoulders but that's way too high
Let's try not to step on the children
The news cameras filmin
This walkin project buildin
Now there's hoes sellin hoes like right around the toes
And the crackheads beg at about the lower leg
There's crooked police that's stationed at the knees
And they do drive-bys like up and down the thighs
And there's a car chase goin on at the waist
Keep a vest on my chest
I'm sittin in my room as I'm lookin out the face
Somethin to write about
I still got some damage from fightin the whitehouse, just a
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers

I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours

[Lupe Fiasco]
Now come on everybody, let's make cocaine cool
We need a few more half naked women up in the pool
And hold this MAC-10 that's all covered in jewels
And can you please put your titties closer to the 22s?
And where's the champagne? We need champagne
Now look as hard as you can with this blunt in your hand
And now hold up your chain slow motion through the flames
Now cue the smoke machines and the simulated rain
But not too loud 'cause the baby's sleepin
I wonder if it knows what the world is keepin
Up both sleeves while he lay there dreamin
Me and my robot tip-toe 'round creepin
I had to turn my back on what got you paid
I couldn't see half the hood on me like Abu Ghraib
But I'd like to thank the streets that drove me crazy
And all the televisions out there that raised me, I was

Found my black queen Cleopatra

Our war is over, our queen has met her doom
No more she lives, no more serpent in her room
No more, it has killed Cleopatra, Cleopatra

Into the car / On the backseat in the moonlit dark
Wrap me up between your legs and arms /

If you had my love
And I gave you all my trust
Would you comfort me
And if somehow you knew that your love would be untrue
Would you lie to me
And call me baby

Now if I gave you me, this is how it's got to be
First of all I won't take you cheatin' on me
Tell me who can I trust if I can't trust in you
And I refuse to let you play me for a fool
You said that we could possibly spend eternity
See that's what you told me (that's what you said)
But if you want me
You have to be fulfilling all my dreams
(If you really want me babe)
CHORUS
Verse
Said you want my love and you've got to have it all
But first there are some things you need to know
If you want to live
With all I have to give
I need to feel true love
Or it's got to end, yeah
I don't want you
Trying to get with me
And I end up unhappy
(Don't need the hurt and I don't need the pain)
So before I do
Give myself to you
I have to know the truth
(If I spend my life with you)

Just let me hear some of that...
CHORUS-
D
Rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
G
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
D
Any old time you use it
A7
It's gotta be rock and roll music
D
If you wanna dance with me
A7 D
If you wanna dance with me
Verse 1-
A
I have no kick against modern jazz
A7 D
Unless you try to play it too darn fast
G
I lose the beauty of a melody
A7
Until it sounds just like a symphony
That's why I go for that...
(chorus)
Verse 2-
I took my love on over 'cross the tracks
So she could hear a man a-wailin' sax
I must admit they had a rockin' band
And they were blowin' like a hurrican'
That's why I go for that...
(chorus)
Verse 3-
Way down south they gave a jubilee
And Georgia folks, they had a jamboree
They're drinkin' home brew from a wooden cup
The folks dancin' got all shook up
And started playin' that...
(chorus)
Verse 4-
Don't get to hear 'em play a tango
I'm in no mood to take a mambo
It's way too early for the congo
So keep on rockin' that piano
So I can hear some of that...
(chorus)
-VERSE-
Emaj7 Bmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
There's a thousand words that I could say to make you come home, yeah.
Emaj7 Bmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
Seems so long ago you walked away and left me alone.
Emaj7 Bmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
And I remember what you said to me, you were acting so strange.
Emaj7 Bmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
And maybe I was too blind to see that you needed a change.
G#m/D# F#/C#
Was it something I said to make you turn away,
B F#/A# F#/A# Em
to make you walk out and leave me cold? If I could just find
Bm/F# F#
a way to make it so that you were right here, right now.
-CHORUS-
Em Bm
I've been sitting here, can't get you off my mind,
Em Bm
I'm try'n' my best to be a man and be strong.
Em Bm
I drove myself insane wishing I could touch your face,
G/D F# Em
but the truth re-mains your gone, (you're-----)
Bm Em Bm
gone, (baby, you're) gone, (girl, you're gone. Baby girl, you're)

-BRIDGE-
Bm F#m Bm Em F#
What will I do if I can't be with you? Tell me, where will I turn to?
G A Bm A/C# Em Bm
Baby, who will I be? Now that we are apart, am I still in your heart?
A Bm E F#
Baby why don't you see that I need you hear with me? Oh----
-VERSE 2-
Now, I don't wanna make excuses, baby.
Won't change the fact that you're gone.
But if there's something that I could do,
Won't you please let me know?
The time is passing so slowly now,
Guess that's my life without you.
And maybe I could change my everyday,
But, baby, I don't want to.
So I'll just hang around and find some things to do
To take my mind off missing you.
And I know in my heart,
You can't say that you don't love me too.
Please say you do, yeah.

Verse 1: A few days before he turned 80
He was sittin' out back in a rocker
He said, "What you been up to lately?"
I told him, "Chasing a dollar"
And in between sips of coffee
He poured this wisdom out
Said, "If you want my two cents on making a dollar count
Chorus: Buy dirt
Find the one you can't live without
Get a ring, let your knee hit the ground
Do what you love but call it work
And throw a little money in the plate at church
Send your prayers up and your roots down deep
Add a few limbs to your family tree
And watch their pencil marks
And the grass in the yard all grow up"
'Cause the truth about it is
It all goes by real quick
You can't buy happiness
But you can buy dirt
Verse 2: Before you get caught on that ladder
Let me tell you what it's all about
Find you a few things that matter
That you can put a fence around
And then he laid it out

[Verse 1]
Bm7
Just shoot for the stars,
If it feels right,
And aim for my heart,
If you feel like,
Em7
You take me away,
And make it okay,
I swear I'll behave.
Bm7
You wanted control,
So we waited,
I put on a show,
Now we're naked,
Em7
You say I'm a kid,
My ego is big,
I don't give a shit...
Bm7
...And it goes like this,
[Chorus]
Take me by the tongue,
And I'll know you.
Kiss me 'til you're drunk,
And I'll show you.
Em7
All the moves like Jagger,
I've got the moves like Jagger,
Bm7
I've got the mooohoohoohves... like Jagger...
I don't need to try to control you,
Look into my eyes and I'll own you.
Em7
With the moves like Jagger,
I've got the moves like Jagger,
Bm7
I've got the mooohoohoohves... like Jagger...
[Verse 2]
Baby it's hard,
When you feel like you're broken and scarred,
Nothing feels right,
But when you're with me,
I make you believe,
That I've got the key.
So get in the car,
We can ride it,
Wherever you want,
Get inside it,
And you want to steer,
But I'm shifting gears,
I'll take it from here...
...And it goes like this...
[Chorus 2]
[Bridge]
You want to know how to make me smile,
Take control, own me just for the night,
But if I share my secret,
You're gonna have to keep it,
Nobody else can see this.
So watch and learn,
I won't show you twice,
Head to toe, ooh baby, rub me right.
But if I share my secret,
You're gonna have to keep it,
Nobody else can see this.
...And it goes like this...
[Chorus 3]

Well tell him this is his last chance - to get his daughter in a fine romance
C11 C C11 C C11 C C11 C (quickly)
Because the record company Rosie - just gave me a big advance
And my tires were slashed and I almost crashed but the lord had mercy
My machine she's dud stuck in the mud somewhere in the swamps of Jersey
Hold on tight stay up all night Rosie I'm coming on strong
By the time we meet the morning light I will hold you in my arms
I know a pretty little place in Southern California down San Diego way
There's a little cafe - where they play guitar all night and all day
You can hear 'em in the back room strummin'
So hold tight baby 'cuz don't you know daddy's coming
