1.Everyday I Have To Cry
There was a little girl I planned to marry,
if this was my love I didn't want to share.
I thought that love would make my life bright and sunny,
but she said she could not love me 'cause I didn't have no
money.
Every day I have to cry so,
drying the water from my eyes so,
till the clouds slowly pass by (?)
every day I have to cry.
I got me a girl,
I guess I really love her,
'cause every night I've been thinking over.
But you can't live all your love this morning,
but if you do it's gonna hurt somebody.
Every day I have to cry so,
drying the water from my eyes so,
till the clouds slowly pass by (?)
every day I have to cry.
I thought I know she's just a woggle (?)
if she found a love because she's not a rich girl (?)
but every time you reach love this morning (?)
every time it's gonna hurt somebody.
Every day I have to cry so,
drying the water from my eyes so,
till the clouds slowly pass by (?)
every day I have to cry.
2.WINE AND WOMEN
Lyrics:Barry Gibb
Music:Barry Gibb
Wine and women and song will only make me sad.
Love and kisses and hugs, the things I never had.
If this should end, I don't mind.
If this should end, I will find.
What shall I do (what shall I do).
What shall I do (what shall I do).
Cars and buses and trams make a lot of noise.
All my women have gone out with other boys.
If this should end, I don't mind.
If this should end, I will find.
I won't complain (I won't complain).
I feel no pain (I feel no pain).
Ooh..
If this should end, I don't mind.
If this should end, I will find.
I won't complain (I won't complain).
I feel no pain (I feel no pain).
Wine and women and song will only make me sad.
Love and kisses and hugs, the thing I never had.
If this should end, I don't mind.
If this should end, I will find.
I won't complain (I won't complain).
I feel no pain ( I feel no pain).
I won't complain., cry.
3.FOLLOW THE WIND
Lyrics:Barry Gibb
Music:Barry Gibb
I'm so weary from holding this load,
but it's only my love for you that I walk this lonely road,
I must follow the wind, follow the wind,
and the wind will take me hold before the cold.
Every star I have counted,
each flower I have seen,
but the place where I'm going, there's no grass as green,
I must follow the wind, follow the wind,
and the wind will take me home where I can dream.
In the hour I am lonely, your love will be mine,
I will stay in your arms dear, until comes the time.
I must be on my way for my home is anywhere.
I have no time to stay, I have no time to care.
I must follow the wind, follow the wind,
as the wind gently blows in my hair.
I must follow the wind, follow the wind,
as the wind gently blows in my hair.
I must follow the wind, follow the wind,
as the wind gently blows in my hair.
4.I Was A Lover, A Leader Of Men
Ah, ah, ah, ah.
I was a lover, a leader of men,
all of the women I knew were my friends.
I was so happy, my feet on the ground,
I didn't know I was on the way down
'cause you don't feel the same,
it's only a game, it's only a game, it's only a game.
Ah, ah, ah, ah.
I had a billion or two in the bank,
I gave to charity, ain't got no thanks.
You gave me all that a woman could give
less your affection, I don't want to live
'cause you don't feel the same,
it's only a game, it's only a game, it's only a game.
'cause you don't feel the same
I was a lover, a leader of men,
all of the women I knew were my friends.
I was so happy, my feet on the ground,
I didn't know, I was on the way down
'cause you don't feel the same,
it's only a game, it's only a game, it's only a game.
Ah, ah, ah,...
5.AND THE CHILDREN LAUGHING
Lyrics:Barry Gibb
Music:Barry Gibb
Ah......
Well, I've been working up a fever trying to
straighten up the mess in my mind about this place,
I can't contain myself anymore,
can't you see it's written all over my face?
Why don't you get on your feet?
It's about time you got to think
whatever happened to peace?
Well, open your eyes and you'll see children laughing,
voices singing, hearts beating.
You're always talking right and talking about
the world and its corruption and moral decay,
but what you gonna do about it? Nothing,
'cause you're more like children than children while they play,
Why you're so clean through and through you won't shake hands
with a negro who's maybe cleaner than you.
Well, listen around and you'll hear children laughing,
voices singing, hearts beating like they always do,
so what's wrong with you?
You're so blown up with anger about the world,
you write the songs about it all,
yet you don't even know your neighbour's name.
And now you want to go to the moon and live there,
when you know it'll only end up the same.
How can he give you any gratitude,
with your endless sickening attitude?
You strive to get ahead
but you leave each other dead.
Can't you see children laughing,
voices singing, hearts beating like they always do?
So what's wrong with you?
Children laughing, voices singing hearts beating.
Children laughing, voices singing, hearts...
6.I WANT HOME
Take off your dress,
put on a new one,
I'm going to take you out tonight.
Put on a dress,
make it blue one,
Everything's gonna be all right
I want home again
so I can be with you, with you.
I want home again
to do the things you do, you do, yeah.
Take off your dress,
put on a new one,
I'm going to take you out tonight.
Put on a dress,
make it a blue one,
everything's gonna be all right.
I want home again
so I can be with you, with you.
Take off your dress,
put on a new one,
I'm going to take you out tonight.
Put on a dress,
make it a blue one,
everything's gonna be all right.
I want home again
so I can be with you.,with you.
I want home again
to do the things you do, you do yeah.
7.Spicks And Specks
Where is the sun
That shone on my head
The sun in my life
It is dead
it is dead
Where is the light
That would play
In my streets
And where are the friends
I could meet
I could meet
Where are the girls
I left all behind
The spicks and the specks
Of the girls on my mind
Where is the sun
That shone on my head
The sun in my life
It is dead
it is dead
Where are the girls
I left all behind
The spicks and the specks
Of the girls on my mind
Where is the girl I loved
all along
The girl that I loved
she's gone
she's gone
All of my life
I call yesterday
The spicks and the specks
of my life 've gone away
All of my life
I call yesterday
The spicks and the specks
of my life 've gone away
Spicks and Specks!
8.I AM THE WORLD
I'm the sun and the falling rain,
I'm the kind of man you can't explain.
True love is one thing I've been dreaming of ,
I give my love to you,
and when I do,
you are to me the very deepest part of me.
I am the world,
I am the sky,
I am the sea,
I'm anything that you want me to be.
When you hurt me,
then I become the night time,
the shadows in my eyes
don't make it good
for me to see
the way I should.
I am the world,
I am the sky,
I am the sea,
I'm anything that you want me to be.
I'm the sun and the falling rain,
I'm the kind of man that you can't explain.
I am the world,
I am the world.
9.Playdown
I'm not a ghost , I am a man
I only do the best I can
Believin' I will find a way
It's just a price that you must pay
For my friends , they put me down
So I go from town to town
They all say that I'm a clown
They play high and I play
They play high and I play
I play the game , I see the light
I walk in day , you walk in night
Believe me boy, it ain't no good
In doin' what you never should
All my friends, they put me down
So I go from town to town
They all say that I'm a clown
They play high and I play down
They play high and I play
nah......
All my friends , they put me down
So I go from town to town
They all say that I'm a clown
They play high and I play down
They play high and I play
10.I Don't Know Why I Bother With Myself
I'm a fool , I've taken no advice
And I'm so cruel , I'm talkin' to you nice
But then again you may not take me back
Oh just to put my hat back on your rack
Guess I don't know why I bother with myself
You will find a part of me in someone else
I never argued with the fact that she is mine
I only hurt her and kissed her three times out of nine
You have the edge to talk to men and make them feel at home
You spent that every lasting cent on someone that's not your own
Bear with me there's bound to be a chance
To heal the wound and start back our romance
I gained a heart and part of it is yours
Oh just to see my love walk through these doors
Oh and my life's bound out ahead , I can not look
And if you read me , then I am just a book
You don't care if rain falls in my room
You won't be there if trouble fills my spoon
I'm just a clown that plays around with misery in my way
Forgetting all the rules of love ....(fade)
11.Monday's Rain
I can see the sun shinin' down on me
Is it you my love that I can see
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me walk to Monday's rain (Monday's rain)
to Monday's rain (Monday's rain)
In this my life , I walk in light
You are my love so baby I'm all right
Don't let me down , baby
Don't let me down
Oh baby, please don't let me walk in Monday's rain (Monday's
rain)
in Monday's rain (Monday's rain)
(break)
Ah....
Ev'ry man alive has got to have someone
So what will I do when baby you are gone
Don't let me down
Don't walk on me
My Sunday sunshine
hide Monday's rain (Monday's rain)
hide Monday's rain (Monday's rain)
Monday's rain (Monday's rain) Ah...
12.TO BE OR NOT TO BE
Lyrics:Barry Gibb
Music:Barry Gibb
You build me up,
you let me down .
How can I love,
you give me no ground.
To be or not to be,
to be or not to be,
am I gonna have you for me.
One little light
I saw this morn.
The light in your eyes,
I don't see no more.
To be or not to be,
to be or not to be,
am I gonna have you for me,
well.
Give me a chance.
Make up your mind.
Give me romance.
Tell me you're mine.
To be or not to be,
well, to be or not to be,
am I gonna have you for me,
well.
Well, to be or not to be.
Well, to be or not to be.
To be or not to be,
am gonna have you for me.
Well, to be or not to be.
Well, to be or not to be.
Well, to be or not to be .
am I gonna have you for me.
13.Second Hand People
See the cracks upon the wall
We do not know the meaning of it all
Ain't no fire to warm my feet
Ain't got a nickel for a bit to ear
We're not workin', we're not slavin'
Ain't worth a brain, 'cause we're not worth savin'
Second hand people, tall as a steeple
Softer then treacle, in a pond are we
Second hand people
Ain't no mirror to comb my face
Just keep on going from place to place
Ain't got no lights above my head
Don't even bother to leave my bed
We're not livin' ,we're existin'
We're not movin' ,just resistin'
Second hand people, tall as a steeple
Softer then treacle , in a pond are we
Second hand people , tall as a steeple
Softer then treacle ....
