Some days won’t end ever and some days pass on by
I’ll be working here forever, at least until I die
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t
I’m supposed to get a raise week, you know damn well I won’t
Workin’ in a coal mine
Goin’ down down down
Workin’ in a coal mine
Whoops! About to slip down
Workin’ in a coal mine
Goin’ down down down
Workin’ in a coal mine
Whoops! About to slip down
Five o’clock in the mornin’
I’m already up and gone
Lord-a, I’m so tired
How long can this go on?
Come all you young fellers so young and so fine
And seek not your fortune in the dark dreary mine
It’ll form as a habit and seep in your soul
Till the stream of your blood is as black as the coal
Where it’s dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
Lord it’s a dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
Flies all green ‘n buzzin’ in his dungeon of despair
Prisoners grumble and piss their clothes and scratch their matted hair
A tiny light from a window hole a hundred yards away
Is all they ever get to know about the regular life in the day;
An’ it stinks so bad the stones been chokin’
‘N weepin’ greenish drops
In the room where the giant fire puffer works
'N the torture never stops
The torture never stops
Catch the wheel that breaks the butterfly
I cried the rain that fills the ocean wide
I tried to talk with God to no avail
I called him up in and out of nowhere
Said if you won’t save me, please don’t waste my time
The summer sun that blows my mind
It’s falling down on all that I’ve ever known
In time we’ll kiss the world goodbye
Falling down on all that I’ve ever known
Is all that I’ve ever known
Summertime, and the living is easy
Fish are jumping, and the cotton is high
Your daddy’s rich, and your mama’s good-looking
So hush, pretty baby, don’t you cry
Oh, they’re so fresh and fine
And they’re right off the vine
Strawberries! Strawberries!
Cornbread is sweet
Pork chops are good
Blackeyed peas are mighty, mighty fine
But give me, oh give me
I really wish you would
That watermelon hangin’ on the vine
She’s my cherry pie
Cool drink of water
Such a sweet surprise
Tastes so good
Make a grown man cry
Sweet cherry pie oh yea
Right before my very eyes
I thought that you were only faking it
And like before, my heart was taking it
Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes
My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored you
Though a million miles away from me you couldn’t see
That I adored you
So close, so close, and yet so far
You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off of you
You’d be like Heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last, love has arrived
And I thank God I’m alive
You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off of you
I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I’ll make you so sure about it
God only knows what I’d be without you
There’s a starman waiting in the sky
He’d like to come and meet us
But he thinks he’d blow our minds
There’s a starman waiting in the sky
He’s told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it’s all worthwhile
Don’t fake it, baby
Lay the real thing on me
The church of man, love
Is such a holy place to be
Make me, baby
Make me know you really care
Make me jump into the air
Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe
Put your ray gun to my head
Press your space face close to mine, love
Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh yeah, yeah
it’s electric
boogie woogie, woogie!
now you can’t hold it
If you’re thinkin’ you’re too cool to boogie
Boy oh boy have I got news for you
Everybody here tonight must boogie
Let me tell ya’ you are no exception to the rule
Get on up on the floor
Cuz we’re gonna boogie oogie oogie
Till you just can’t boogie no more (boogie)
I’m your boogie man, that’s what I am
I’m here to do whatever I can
Be it early morning, late afternoon
Or at midnight. It’s never too soon
To want to please you, to want to keep you
To want to do it all, all for you
I want to be your, be your rubber ball
I want to be the boy you love most of all, oh yeah
All of my love, all of my kissin’
You don’t know what you’ve been a-missin’
Oh boy, when you’re with me, ho boy
The world can see that you were meant for me
Buddy Holly
I’ll pretend that I’m kissing
The lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true
And then while I’m away
I’ll write home everyday
And I’ll send all my loving to you
