Knock On Any Door
Knock on any door
Look through any window
Baby knock on any door
Knock on any door
Is there any place you want to go
Baby who you lookin for
Yeah, yeah, baby now you know
Its a cold world like they told you so
Knock on any door
Save your tears for some occasion
Keep your heartache to yourself
Knock on any door
Its a simple operation
Just trade your memory for your health
Knock on any door
Look through any window
Walk on
Knock on any door
Look through any window
Walk on

Youll Get It In The Mail Today
Ive been up all night
Ive been writing this letter
And I think I might have found a better way
To tell you all the things Ive got to say
I put it in writing and youll get it in the mail today
Well I dont know but I cant help feeling
That you got to stop your double-dealin ways
Cheatin on me is a crime that never pays
And thats all in the letter and youll get it in the mail today
Well I would tell you to your face
But youd just lie to me
Put you in your place
But youd just try to defy me
Been up all night
Pencil and a paper
And I think I might have found a safer way
Say goodbye without much more delay
Well its all in the letter and youll get it in the mail today
I dont mean tomorrow
Its all in the letter and youll get it in the mail today

Two Of Me, Two Of You
There are two of me
And two of you
Two who have betrayed love
And two who have been true
And together we went crashing through
Every bond and vow and faith we knew
Me and the fool Ive been
And the two of you
Of the two of me
One always knew
That I would always love you
Whatever you might do
And the more unfree and troubled you grew
I could feel the whole world splitting in two
Trying to make the room
For the two of you
So like a fragile little child
More than a little lost and wild
How the light would leave the sky when you cried
And returned again when you smiled

Ive Been Out Walking
This song appears on the album for everyman as these days with slightly different lyrics.
Ive been out walking
I dont do too much talking these days
These days
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had the chance to
I stopped my ramblin
I dont do too much gamblin these days
These days
These days I seem to think about
How all the changes came about my way
And I wonder if Ill see another highway
And I had a lover
I dont think Ill risk another these days
These days
And if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
Well its just cause Ive been losing so long
Well Ill stop my dreamin

Melissa
Melissa, I knew I just had to kiss ya
Heaven knows what I had in mind
When my eyes went blind
And you had to take me home
Because I could not find my way
Mimi, you make my glasses steamy
Heaven knows that Ill take a chance
On a girl from france
Just so long as we dont have to dance till dawn
Maybe baby Im not so smart
But I know Im not your brother
And the way you affect me
You neednt suspect me
Of falling in love with another
Daisy, your old man thinks Im crazy
Heaven knows I used to go insane
When I heard your name
I knew what I was doin
When I had my brain removed
Maybe baby Im not so smart

Let It Be Me (feat. Timothy B. Schmidt)
(performed by Jackson Browne and Timothy B. Schmit; from the Bye, Bye Love motion picture soundtrack, 1995)
I bless the day I found you,
I want to stay around you
and so I beg you, let it be me.
Don't take this heaven from one,
if you must cling to someone
now and forever, let it be me.
Each time we meet, love,
I find complete love.
Without your sweet love
what would life be?
So never leave me lonely,
tell me you'll love me only
and that you'll always let it be me.
If for each bit of gladness
someone must taste of sadness
I'll bear the sorrow, let it be me.
No matter what the price is
I'll make no sacrifices.
Through each tomorrow let it be me.

Love Me, Lovely
Lovely, lovely, did you see me
Just as I was crying
Love me lovely, make it easy
What I say is hard but I am trying
Lovely, lovely, can you hear me
Listen to my singing
Love me lovely, while youre near me
Try and understand the thought Im bringing
Last night I was sleeping
But I did not know if Id awaken today
Lie in my keeping, only know
That I cant stay after today
Im on my way - love me lovely
Love me lovely
Lovely, lovely, you cant fool me
I know that you need me
Love me, lovely, now and truly
Knowing that your love can only speed me
Dont say how it could be
Or Ill know that youll be crying today

I Thought I Was A Child
Its such a clever innocence with which you do your sorcery
As if somehow the years just bow and let that young girl go free
I thought I was a child until you turned and smiled
I thought I knew where I was going until I heard your laughter flowing
And came upon the wisdom in your eyes
Surprise--
Ive spent my whole life running round
Chasing songs from town to town
Thinking Id be free so long as I never let love slow me down
So lonely and so wild until you turned and smiled
By now I should have long been gone
But here I am still looking on
As if I didnt know which way to run
Its such a clever innocence with which you show myself to me
As if you know how it feels to never be who you wanted to be
I thought I was a child until you turned and smiled
I thought that I was free but Im just one more prisoner of time
Alone within the boundaries of my mind
I thought I was a child

Ive Been The One
(written by lowell george)
(performed by jackson browne on the lowell george tribute album rock and roll doctor;1997)
Ive been the one who has been frightened
And almost borne away by the very thoughts
That I feared yesterday
And it must be the dust or smoke thats in my eyes
How can I cry about something from someone I wont see
Oh my friends all say she had her chance
Lets go shoot some pool
Ya know a fool is just a fool
And Ive tried everything that whiskey cures
But the pain endures and now Im feeling that pain
I put my pride in my pocket
Thats how Ill spend my loneliest days
And it must be dust or smoke thats in my eyes
Dont know what to do
Hold the lamp above the rafters
These smoke-filled rooms will not replace her
Ive been the one who has been frightened
And almost borne away by the very thoughts

Its Been Raining Here In Long Beach
Its been raining here in long beach
The dampness in the air
Tends to straighten out my hair
Against my wishes
But the traces of a song reach
My tattered ear once more
Lend me courage to ignore
The smell of fishes
I was a drunken lout, I ran about
With ladies that I knew
I did em wrong all night long
Singing 23 skidoo
Huzahh...huzahh...
Once upon a time I was a kid
Well I dont know what happened then
But Im warning all you younger men
On your way to long beach think again
You cant afford to settle down in long beach
I had a rack and coat, a paddle boat
I played the ukelele
