My Fathers Eyes

(by eric clapton)
Sailing down behind the sun,
Waiting for my prince to come.
Praying for the healing rain
To restore my soul again.
Just a toerag on the run.
How did I get here?
What have I done?
When will all my hopes arise?
How will I know him?
When I look in my fathers eyes.
My fathers eyes.
When I look in my fathers eyes.
My fathers eyes.
Then the light begins to shine
And I hear those ancient lullabies.
And as I watch this seedling grow,
Feel my heart start to overflow.
Where do I find the words to say?
How do I teach him?

Slow Down Linda

By eric clapton
Well, if youre looking for a winner, then you know youve got to go with me.
Ive got more ashes than wednesday and you know I can brew my tea.
Im fixing to teach you everything I know,
Ill take you with me baby everywhere I go.
If I can catch you for a minute I know youll take a chance with me.
So slow down, slow down linda.
Dont you think that you could save a little time with me?
So slow down, slow down linda.
Dont you know that Ive been waiting for your company?
Ive seen you speeding down the highway when you ought to dig the scenery.
And you can wolf down your dinner in the time it takes to drink my tea.
Youre always rushing round everywhere you go,
You leave me eating dirt on the side of the road.
I cant keep running much longer you always go too fast for me.
Chorus
I think that youre getting too old to be running around,
I think that its time you thought about settling down,
So slow down, slow down linda,
Dont you know that Ive been waiting for your company.

Stop Breakin Down Blues

(Robert Johnson)
Everytime I'm walkin', down the streets, some pretty mama start breakin' down with me
Stop breakin' down, yes stop breakin' down
The stuff I got'll bust your brains out, baby, hoo hoo, it'll make you lose your mind.
I can't walk the streets now con, consolate my mind,
some no-good woman she starts breakin' down
Stop breakin' down, please stop breakin' down
The stuff I got it gon' bust your brains out, baby, hoo hoo, it'll make you lose your mind
Now, you Saturday night women's, you love to ape and clown,
you won't do nothin' but tear a good man reputation down
Stop breakin' down, please stop breakin' down
The stuff I got'll bust your brains out, baby, hoo hoo, it'll make you lose your mind
Now, I give my baby, now, the ninety-nine degree,
she jumped up and throwed a pistol down on me
Stop breakin' down, please stop breakin' down
Stuff I got'll bust your brains out, baby, hoo hoo, it'll make you lose your mind
I can't start walkin' down the streets, but some pretty mama don't start breakin' down with me
Stop breakin' down, yeah stop breakin' down
The stuff I got'll bust your brains out, baby, hoo hoo, it'll make you lose your mind

Runaway Train

By elton john, bernie taupin and olle romo
Theres a hungry road I can only hopes
Gonna eat me up inside.
Theres a drifting spirit coming clean
In the eye of a lifelong fire.
Tell monday Ill be around next week;
Im running ahead of my days.
In the shotgun chance that scattered us,
Ive seen the error of my ways.
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh.
Well weve wrapped ourselves in golden crowns
Like sun gods spitting rain.
Found a way home written on this map
Like red dye in my veins.
In the hardest times that come around,
The fear of losing grows.
Ive lost and seen the world shut down;
Its a darkness no one knows.
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh.
And Ive poured out the pleasure and dealt with the pain.

Broken Down

By simon climie & dennis morgan
Everything was wonderful when you were in my life.
Yesterday we were on a roll, baby, then we end up in a fight.
Everywhere I look, I see problems, where I never seen before.
The cracks in the sidewalk, when I get home my key dont even fit the door.
The moon dont shine, its broken down.
The clouds are crying, theyre broken down.
The car wont start, its broken down.
And this shattered heart, its broken down.
My whole damn world, its broken down.
Since you left me girl, Ive broken down.
Stepped outside into the night, I took a walk around the block.
I stopped by the church that I used to go inside but even that door was locked.
So I came back home, feeling so alone, a light had burned out in the hall.
My tv is broke, said Im out of smoke, theres no one I can even call.
Chorus
Said my whole damn world, its broken down.
Since you left me girl, Ive broken down.
Till you come back, come back to me, Im going to be broken down.
Till you come back, come back to me, Im going to be broken down.

I Shot The Sheriff

By bob marley
I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy.
I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy.
All around in my home town
Theyre trying to track me down.
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy,
For the life of a deputy.
But I say:
I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self-defense.
I shot the sheriff, and they say it is a capital offense.
Sheriff john brown always hated me;
For what I dont know.
Every time that I plant a seed
He said, kill it before it grows.
He said, kill it before it grows.
I say:
I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self-defense.
I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self-defense.
Freedom came my way one day

Believe In Life

By eric clapton
When the world has seen the light
At the beginning of the day,
You will let me call your name,
cause I love you more than light,
And it will always be this way
As long as I believe in life.
When the morning comes too soon
And I am still without your love,
You will let me call your name,
cause I love you more than light,
And it will always be this way
As long as I believe in life.
Whatever happened to the girls I used to know?
Whatever happened to the places that wed go?
When we were running in and out of time,
But all the time we still believed in life.
We were running in and out of time,
But still believed in life.
And when the day is almost done

Eric Clapton

When the world receives the light
At the beginning of the day
You will let me call your name
cause I love you more than light
And it will always be this way
As long as I believe in life.
And when the morning comes too soon
And I am still without your love
You will let me call your name
cause I love you more than light
And it will always be this way
As long as I believe in life.
Whatever happened to the girls I used to know?
Whatever hapenned to the places that we'd go,
When we were running in and out of time
But all the time we still believe in life?
We were running in and out of time
But still believed in life.
And when the day is almost done
And theres nothing left to say

Its Probably Me

By sting, michael kamen and eric clapton
If the night turned cold and the stars looked down
And you hug yourself on the cold cold ground.
You wake the morning in a strangers coat,
No one would you see.
You ask yourself, whod watch for me?
My only friend, who could it be?
Its hard to say it, I hate to say it, but its probably me.
When your bellys empty and the hungers so real
And youre too proud to beg and too dumb to steal,
You search the city for your only friend,
No one would you see.
You ask yourself, whod watch for me?
A solitary voice to speak out and set me free.
I hate to say it, I hate to say it, but its probably me.
Youre not the easiest person I ever got to know
And its hard for us both to let our feelings show.
Some would say I should let you go your way,
Youll only make me cry.
But if theres one guy, just one guy

A Certain Girl By Naomi Neville

Theres a certain girl Ive been in love with a long, long time.
(whats her name? ) I cant tell you. (no!)
I cant reveal her name until Ive got her.
(whats her name? ) I cant tell you. (no!)
Well, Ive tried to get her time and time again.
We just end up as nothing but friends.
And theres a certain girl Ive been in love with a long, long time.
(whats her name? ) I cant tell you. (no!)
Well, theres a certain chick Ive been sweet on since I met her.
(whats her name? ) I cant tell you. (no!)
I cant repeat her name until I get her.
(whats her name? ) I cant tell you. (no!)
Well one day, Im gonna wake up and say,
Ill do anything just to be your slave.
And theres a certain girl Ive been in love with a long, long time.
(whats her name? ) I cant tell you. (no!)
Well, Ive tried to get her time and time again.
We just end up as nothing but friends.
And theres a certain girl Ive been in love with a long, long time.
(whats her name? ) I cant tell you. (no!)
