She got that thigh shaking, that cinnamon baking Come hither eyes, see your sadly mistaken You give me the look that's all that i took You say you drop me a line, Sadly I wrote you the book. Shot it down All that I ever really want from you is a heart with rhythm and a beat that's true. And yours is a beat that's true I'm not for flag waving, scrimping or saving Bumped into Bob he said "the times are a changing" flew into town and then you knock the door down Came in grinning now the fat bird's singing and the jewel's in your crown. Shot it down All that I ever really want from you is a heart with rhythm and a beat that's true. And yours is a beat that's true

Met my love on a sunny day Took her hand flew her miles away On our backs in the field as we lay looking high, Watching the shapes in the summer sky Met a man trying to sell his soul Speaking tongues that he couldn’t control, Played a tune on a lute that he stole And we watched him for hours, and followed the notes as they drifted, And when all settled down, the cloud on his crown had been lifted. No I don’t feel that I’m doin anything today A feathered friend brought a message my way, At top of morning and slip of the day, He said there’s wisdom in young hearts afraid and he gazed at the pure who followed the words that he whispered, And when all said and done, the light in the eyes he’d gifted. No I don’t feel that I’m doing anything today

Didn’t want a great big scene but, I’m gonna get my way, Take my rightful share and split the night, Gonna blow this town away Got more sense than I care to share you know so I won’t do that, Keep my profile nice n low, I think it works nicely like that. I said You’re all motherfuckers, I’ve got a mansion, keys to the city. calling my name i won’t cool my jets I’m 8 miles high I failed to mention, the girls, so pretty. Won’t cool my jets I’m 8 miles high and I’m never gonna die, Not gonna die Got my sights on better days, you know I’ll take my time, Before your sideburns start to grey, I’ll be flanked by dollar signs. Cos You’re all motherfuckers, I’ve got a mansion, keys to the city. calling my name i won’t cool my jets I’m 8 miles high I failed to mention, the girls, so pretty. Won’t cool my jets I’m 8 miles high and I’m never gonna die, Never gonna die I got the keys to the city I’m 8 miles high, you’re all motherfuckers no I’m not gonna die

Oh I need a holiday, Some country air, anywhere I’ll stay, I go slipping out Driving round n droppin in and droppin out Rainbow trails and pots of gold, gonna get my fill before I get too old, I got a thinking man’s brow and time to get it solved. And she says, I got a guy who’s hard to please, knots in his hair, holes in his jeans, won’t follow directions, the veins in my neck show I need release. And he goes, I got a girl who’s hard to please, drops from her tongue, it’s not what she means, She’s on a mission, to floor my condition, it’s not what I need. And we go on and on and on We go on and on So I queried the man who advised me to stand by, said your stuck with the blade that you live or you die by, you carry that weight, puts the lines on your face, that what he said. And it’s too much to mention, the pain is immense, I’ve got splinters in skin where I crawled at the fence, and the blood from my nails are leaving a trail for the dead.
