Don't Mean Nothin’ Let the winter's cold winds blow let the summer sun beat down Life moves fast, love goes slow While the world keeps spinning round All the things I wish I'd done that never came to be They won't matter after I'm gone So they don't mean nothin to me Some men live to hear the sound of a dollar being made Mansions crumble to the ground And treasures fade away I don't worry on things I own though a poor man I may be They won't matter after I'm gone So they don't mean nothing to me As you run life's rugged race good times come and go But even in the darkest place My spirit's never low Troubles there as many as the leaves upon a tree They won't matter after I'm gone, so they don't mean nothin to me

Rockets 03:03
Rockets Holding the fire, standing in the rain Eyes of desire, close to the flame nothing can be done, to change their minds Out in the dark, far beyond the light. Home is with the stars, out of sight. Nothing can be done, to make them stay. Here and then they're gone How long until they go How long until they know All they need to fly Rockets to the silver sky If I had the chance to do it all again I'd follow every stream, fearless like them Let everything be done, in it's own time Don't worry if it's wrong How long until I go How long until I know All I need to fly Rocket to the silver sky

The Hitchhiker I heard you favored another And to me it came as no surprise I had all I can take of feeling this way knowing I was gone beyond goodbye I hear a voice in the distance Crying like a sorrowful ghost There's a dark sky moving behind me And I'm riding my thumb by the road Buddy can you take me to Virginia It's a long time now I've been gone Or take me to the coast of California There's a cold wind blowing here at home Anywhere your restless wheels are rolling Is better off than staying here alone So i paid a price for the learning Measured in the passing of time Money can't buy back the years I've lost Water that never turned to wine

Tears Of The Earth Iʼve known rivers ancient and deep Iʼve seen the ripples in the moonlight, and the secrets they keep Rushing like a torrent, and carving the land Picking up trees, the stone and the sand And the cities of man, grow up from the ground They grow up so tall, where the river runs down Paris to London, Boston New Orleans From the heartland down to dixie, out to the seven seas. Like the tears of the earth, the rivers they run Coming down from the mountains in the bright morning sun Where I clean my soul and get carried away Let me stay in the valley by the river, one more day. I remember a place, where mountains divide. And I stood at the edge of the canyon so wide I saw so many years, ten thousand before and it will carve out the land, for ten thousand more Like the tears of the earth, the rivers they run Coming down from the mountains in the bright morning sun Where I clean my soul and get carried away Let me stay in the valley by the river, one more day. When the first light of dawn heats up the dew And the drops shine like diamonds where sunlight shines through My heart can rest if just for a while And my tired feet can walk for another mile Like the tears of the earth, the rivers they run Coming down from the mountains in the bright morning sun Where I clean my soul and get carried away Let me stay in the valley by the river, one more day.

The Place That I Call Home When I cant still my restless mind There's a place where i like to spend some time Where it's alright when I'm a lone The place that I call home A different town most every night No relief when I turn out the lights And all that keeps me hanging on Is her love there at home Where I long to be Where she waits for me The sweetest love I've ever known The place that I call home Sometimes she whispers in my ear Does her best to make me feel she's near And though there's comfort on the phone A place that I call home

Like I Do 04:26
Like I Do Read the words off the back of your hand like I do, like I do. Say them loud so the world can understand like I do, like I do. You can't keep your head on straight, so don't hesitate to concentrate but don't be late for school. Read the words off the back of your hand like I do, like I do, like I do. Take a stick and draw a line in the sand like I do, like I do. Just make sure they know you are in command like I do, like I do. You can't keep your mind at ease, but a gentle breeze blows through the trees if you appease the school. Take a stick and draw a line in the sand like I do, like I do, like I do. Slanted statues spewing out on cue, books of faces blocking a clear view, it doesn't matter if the words are true, as long as what they want comes out of you. Make it up when there's something you don' t know like I do, like I do. Chalk it up just as part of the show like I do, like I do. You can look in to their eyes, but don't compromise and don't revise to realize the school. Make it up when there's something you don't know like I do, like I do, like I do.

Night on the River I don't know where the money's gone Don't know where it's gonna be Not much to show for the work I've done What else would I need A night on the river is all I need A cool drink of water is all I need The bottom of the barrel I know I've had my share Tastes like it always does No surprises there When I think about old times I laugh so hard I cry Got turned around along the line But I still enjoy the ride

When The Night Comes Around I donʼt know how you got inside my heart Youʼre kinda crazy but I knew that from the start I gotta go before this gets too deep Iʼm kinda tired but you just wonʼt let me sleep I think I need a little fun Iʼm looking for the setting sun The night canʼt come fast enough for me Life can move too fast to see And tonight Iʼll be casting off, the chains that keep me to the ground Everythingʼs gonna be alright when the night comes around I gotta call my friend and talk this through Ah whatʼs the point I canʼt make sense of you Iʼm goin out I just might see the dawn Iʼm gonna rage it until your memoryʼs gone The night canʼt come fast enough for me Life can move too fast to see And tonight Iʼll be casting off, the chains that keep me to the ground Everythingʼs gonna be alright when the night comes around

Fire 04:53
Fire There were storms in her eyes and blood on the tracks She left some fool never lookin back Her walk was steady headin my direction I never knew a knife to the heart was a sign of affection Her dark hair was flowin like a smokey fire She stared right through me that look of desire Sheʼs gettin close now and Iʼve lost control Itʼs burns me up but Iʼm still not letting go You canʼt put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire You canʼt buy love, or shake desire. You canʼt put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire You canʼt buy love, or shake desire. Good lord I need some cool, cool water For the heat comin out of the devils daughter I took a bite of the apple and I lost my mind My eyes can see but my heart is always blind You can't put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire You canʼt buy love, or shake desire. You canʼt put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire You canʼt buy love, or shake desire. Well I get cut so deep canʼt understand Why it canʼt happen to another man A lesson learned is a lesson lost Iʼm broke again I canʼt pay the cost of love You canʼt put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire You canʼt buy love, or shake desire. You canʼt put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire You canʼt buy love, or shake desire.

Walking On The Moon Giant steps are what you take Walkin' on the moon I hope my leg don't break Walkin' on the moon We could walk forever Walkin' on the moon We could be together Walkin' on, walkin' on the moon Walkin' back from your house Walkin' on the moon Walkin' back from your house Walkin' on the moon Feet they hardly touch the ground Walkin' on the moon My feet don't hardly make no sound Walkin' on, walkin' on the moon Some, may say I'm wishin' my days away No way And if it's the price I pay Some say Tomorrow's another day You stay I may as well play Giant steps are what you take Walkin' on the moon I hope my leg don't break Walkin' on the moon We could walk forever Walkin' on the moon We could be together Walkin' on, walkin' on the moon Some, may say I'm wishin' my days away No way And if it's the price I pay Some say [ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/p/police-lyrics/walking-on-the-moon-lyrics.html] Tomorrow's another day You stay I may as well play Keep it up Keep it up Keep it up Keep it up
