cold chisel lyrics

Yeah lucky, I wanna believe There’ll come a point in time I’ll face all my demons That tempt all mankind Find absolution Before it’s too late To break these chains Start a clean slate, The good book says the flesh is weak Please believe me if you can It’s attention I seek And I am but a man I might get lucky…. 3 von Cold Chisel And take old Henry’s life and set Lucretia free. Yeah I’m standing in the ruins, looking at the end Of all mankind, leaning back again In the sun, smoking a cigarette, no plans. . Can you show me what love is Do you understand When things get out of hand I might get lucky…. And as they hauled her away and her hands were bound Lucretia’s eyes were cold, as the cold, hard ground, The trial was short the lovers had confessed, And the rope was tied and slipped around their necks And left the holy ground where they would never rest And not a tear was shed the night Lucretia left, Down by the Hunter where the coal-trucks roll And the billboards tell ya where to save your soul There’s another place, does a better job by far, When the moonlight hammers on the railway bridge And the whole world’s lookin’ for a beverage And you ain’t got nothin’, nothin’ in the boot a the car Time for the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s tikki bar, When the coal-trucks settle up and down the line You can wake up thinking that it’s ‘89 But there’s another sound, thicker than a Bolivar, You can hear it pumping out the roll-a-door Walnut piano on a wooden floor Backbeat drummer, Roy on a slide guitar Coming from the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s tikki bar, When the high tide’s suckin’ at the old sea wall And the full moon’s lookin’ like a mirror ball Bigger than Elvis, hotter than a speedway star, With a wet paypacket on a midnight hand They say you can win a mariachi band You can lose a girl, quicker than a coup de grace In the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s tikki bar, Haul that mother, haul that son Haul that rubber to the end of a run That ain’t got ridden since between the wars All hidden from the liquor laws, That’s the backroom (at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s), Wake up in the morning, feel like shit Waiting on a message, that’s my hit Forget about food, forget about time Alla my body, alla my mind Alla my intentions, alla my drive Is bent on keeping our connection alive Every decision, my vision is pinned Counting off the hours till you call again, I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you, Checkin’ on messages, lookin’ at the wall Leavin’ my room, walkin’ up and down the hall Exiting the building, on the street Shopping for nothing on the same old beat Wandering the city, another night lost Counting off the hours, the stations of the Cross Counting off the hours, back to my room Teenage cars goin’ boom boom boom, Wake up in the morning, feel like shit Waiting on a message, that’s my hit Forget about food, forget about time Forget about checkin’ out the scene of the crime, I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you, I got things to do I don’t want to Give me way more time to spend with you Honey when you’re gone You’re gone too long It sure gets lonely when you’re gone away, If you hear me cry Your name in the night Baby I’m just tryin’ to find your welcome light Well there’s only one You’re thinkin’ of It sure gets lonely when you’re gone away, My work is done, this is my time And there’s someone I need to know Maybe one day we’ll find We won’t have no need to go, My work is done, this is my time And there’s somewhere I need to go Maybe one day we’ll find We won’t have no need to go, The horizon is wider than it used to be I ain’t the boy you knew But on a clear day, I can see All the way to you All the way to you, When you’re running blind From promises broken and re-made Then broken again You got no way home Nothing but the smell of burning bridges in the rain, When I look back now I see a young man riding on A one way rail going down Only holding on Riding his addiction into Each new lonely town, I hit the railhead One night in hell And even now I I dunno why I Looked across at the gaming room In a cheap hotel And somehow walked on by Somehow walked on by, Have you ever seen the western sky As the sun goes down Turning indigo to grey It’s enough to make a man believe That maybe one more chance could come my way Maybe one more chance could come my way. I hear the footsteps Prowlin’ round my door I’m just trying to cover up a little bit of daylight I’m just trying to cover up a little bit of daylight, Well I’ve been up all night just trying to make ends meet But things don’t always work the way I planned I take another pill just trying to calm me down If that don’t work, I just get up again I just get up again, Lock the door Shut the window tight I close the curtains I got to block out the light I feel the sun, shining in my eyes I’m just trying to cover up a little bit of daylight I’m just trying to cover up a little bit of daylight Well, I’m just trying to cover up a little bit of daylight Well, I’m just trying to cover up a little bit of daylight, I get home and clean up, put on my best shirt Put on my good shoes My arms are hard from what I do all day And it’s all for you, all for you, As I drive over by the steeple, by the hill The rain is gone, the night is new The constellations are coming out again And it’s all for you, all for you, It’s all for you there are songs in the world I’m singing softly as I drive It’s all for you, cause you’re the only girl And I’m young again And it feels so good to be alive, I’ll take you out, we’ll find a place to eat Somewhere small, with a view And later on we’ll go dancing if you like All for you, for you, The old anger has given way To clear eyes and open hands I’m getting stronger with each new day Cause now I understand, There’s an angel in the shadows of my room And she watches me when I’m all alone When my sad heart is hurt and crying That’s when she comes to me And she leads me home, If I close my eyes And I take her hand I can see you right there Where my angel stands, Into the night when I’m missing you I lay me down with the angel in my room, And in the shadows she stands alone And she’s waiting for me When I’m coming home, I see the tears in my baby’s eyes But in the distance I still hear her cry And baby I’m longing but it passes by When I hold you in my arms Everything will be all right, If I close my eyes I can see her there I can see you right there Where my angel stands Into the night when I’m missing you I lay me down with the angel in my room That’s when I lay me down with the angel in my room, J.

I won’t be comin’ back for long, Open up the door Astrid, and don’t try to stand in my way I’m heading for a long long night to a better day And don’t bother offering to drive me to the station You’d only drive me round the bend We’re comin’ to the end, there’s nothin’ left to say, I been on the run from bar to bar Hunchin’ down and movin’ fast These last few days I’ve been so alone I got my hat pulled down to quartermast You’re the only decent thing I’ve seen In this whole hotel since Danny died The loneliness these past few years Was thick enough to chew You hit me like a Turkish bath The minute I came through the door Baby I’ll break down and cry If you don’t feel it, too They were gathered round in high-class bars Doctors’ wives and trendy cokers Danny’n me we went a bit too far There was one too many smooth stockbrokers The mob got ugly just like that And cut him up with butter knives Threw his carcass in the hall Turned their eyes on me Young Danny was a wild one A naked threat to all their wives I had to run to save my skin And baby here I am Baby you look good to me Clothes like 1984 You’ve got something they’ve all forgotten Let’s not wait, let’s find the door This hotel goes on and on My only friend a sharp coat pocket razor My only love is maybe you There’s one too many navy blazers Jesus we’re the only two I’ve gotta stay with you Hey lets spend the night, She’s standing on the corner And she looks so alone And she sacrafices her money To a god she doesn’t know, “Go repent” said the preacher With his hands stuck in your pocket Once you buy, you soon find out There is no way There is no way to stop him, Yeah she wants the mami krishna And she’s in the bathroom locked The ceremony was pretty long But the honeymoon was short, And “Go repent” said the preacher With his hands stuck in your pocket When you find the Lord, you soon find out There is no way There is no way to stop him, Now the high priest could’ve seen But she got too hot to handle He made her mother settle out of court And insenced lit the candle, “Don’t lose faith” said the preacher With his hands stuck in your pocket When you find the Lord, you soon find out There is no way to stop him “Don’t lose faith” said the preacher With his hands back in your pocket Keep your hands out of my pocket, There’s someone out there hangin’ around Mentioning your name all over town Some old flame of yours Someone you knew And he can’t believe it’s over with you, He says that he is where you belong You tell me you ain’t seen him in so long Maybe he’s the fool Maybe it’s true That he can’t believe it’s over with you, I may need to take him aside See if you have anything to hide Make it plain to him What I will do If he can’t believe it’s over with you, Whichever way it goes I can easily explain it so he knows How it is with you These days, I can’t walk away That’s not what I do When he can’t believe it’s over with you, Hold me tight Hold me tight Baby nothing’s gonna change this magic night Well energy we’ve got to burn So open up your mouth and take a bite And hold me tight, Well tellers do it Tanners do it The Phantom and Diana do it Politicians need it twice a night Presidents and Chauffeurs do it Terrorists on sofas do it Movie stars repeat it till it’s right Hold me tight.

I’m on the outside lookin’ in Standing on the outside lookin’ in Oh Yeah! Cold Chisel (Twentieth Century) Saturday night Saturday night Saturday night Saturday night Saturday night's already old Walking into Sunday, and I find All desires are cold I could walk forever, I don't mind Show me a light, your company Goes a little way to help me see The path on which I'm bound Rather than the things I leave behind Wake up baby I want you to hold me now It’s 3 a.m., time of night when Robbers prowl Give me your hand You know I could not be sure Oh baby there it goes again There’s somebody knockin’ on the kitchen door . 1. Khe Sanh Lyrics: I left my heart to the sappers round Khe Sanh / And my soul was sold with my cigarettes / To the blackmarket man / I've had the Vietnam cold turkey / From the ocean to the Silver ), I found a job And you found a lover He’d been married before But you needed the shelter, Lay down your head and weep mama Lay down next to me Till you cross the borders of sleep mama Lay down next to me Wish no words of sorrow Nor whisper words of spite Let the darkness in your heart Melt into this night, Oh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it break like that Oh-oh Never Before, Never Before did it feel so bad, Drink some more of my wine mama Take some more of my bread There’s a million songs to be sung But not a word to be said If I call on the angel of mercy If I call on the angel of light I’m way outa line but there ain’t much time Storm gonna break tonight, Lay down your head and weep mama Lay down next to me Till you cross the borders of sleep mama Lay down next to me Send a prayer up above to the pure white dove Flying so high I think the angel of mercy Must have heard you cry, Well it’s taken so long to reach the time Where we can go on or leave it behind For better or worse so easy to say But I choke on the words as you push me away, And every move along the way Has moved us each in separate ways And I can feel there’s something Going wrong, Oh I’ll never stop loving you this life Maybe I’m wrong maybe I’m right, Well I look in your eyes You never look back All the sparkle is gone there’s nothing left But the black, What’s the use of holding back The best defence is still attack And don’t give up before the battle’s Won. Love burns like a blue flame A blue flame, a blue flame Love burns like a blue flame How can I be free, Love burns like a blue flame Through the night, your name Still burns like a blue flame How can I be free, How can I be free Wandering alone All night long the way I do Wherever you are tonight How can I make you see The torch I’m carrying for you Still burns, (Love burns, still burns, still burns like a blue flame…), How can I be free When everywhere I go The word is you have been untrue How can I be free When everybody knows The torch I’m carrying for you Still burns, (Love burns, still burns still burns like a blue flame…), Who cares if it’s true When I say In the temple of my heart, a candle burns for you That turns my night into day, Romantic lies Like wine Like a midnight line Make a girl go downtown Romantic lies Make the world go round, Who cares if I swear That my love for you Is so much more than a wild affair For a weekend or two, Romantic lies Like wine Like a diamond mine Make a girl go downtown Romantic lies Make the world go round, Romantic lies are As easy as breathing Cool as believing That each kiss has a fairytale ending Just close your eyes, Romantic lies They say Like a holiday Make the world go downtown Romantic lies Make the world go round, Wired but alive At the break of the day As the last few survivors Fall away, fall away, And I get a little lost sometimes A little lost sometimes In the night, I get a little lost sometimes A little bit lost sometimes That’s alright, Time is a tease All those feathers and fans And unfinished symphonies And you With your broken plans And your day’s demands, Outside, sirens, join and fade Wired but alive We got it made We got it made, Hey you with the head on Yeah, I mean you When the owner bombs this place Watcha gonna do I got one eye on the minute hand One eye on a girl One eye is a rubberband Gonna flick away this world, Bus station Lotta time to kill Lotta miles Lotta pills Lotta time to kill, Hey you in the uniform Yeah, I mean you When the revolution comes Watcha gonna do Fat girl with a travel rug She’s got a chiko roll Fat girl with a travel rug I’m gonna lose control, Bus station Lotta time to kill Lotta miles Lotta pills Lotta time to kill, Like a big cat in a little cage A king in a cell Its too bad, a man my age To know this place too well, Like a dead man on the underground On a long weekend Things keep goin’ round and round And I’ll be back again, I’ve walked the highway as a sinner It’s just a lonely road from hell And my shoes are wearin’ thinner As far as I can tell I might get lucky…. This song is by Cold Chisel and appears on the album Circus Animals (1982) and on the album Teenage Love (1994). 1 (Live at the Hordern Pavilion), The Barking Spides Live 1983 (Remastered). Most Popular Albums . And I’m sitting in a hotel room Along Rue St. Louis Dialing old phone-numbers down the line And I measure my position To the obstacles we crossed The territory covered And the parties that we lost Those were the days, And if I don’t hang around Our old gambling grounds It does not mean that I’ve forgotten We believed, and I still do, I cried my tears in a glass of tequila For a truck-stop honey with a dubious name She held my heart like a blackjack dealer And took my money when she left the game She was overly fond of sophisticated messin’ around I’ve had a bellyful of livin’ in the same old merry-go-round, Well I played in the summer and I froze in the winter And I hankered for the high school beauty queen She was married to a rich young timber-miller And christened a boy when she was just nineteen Crazy love, never gonna settle down I’ve had a bellyful of lovin’ on the same old merry-go-round, Like any man I’ve got to work for a living Just to earn my soul for a weekend show Saturday morning I’ll be down by the river Getting whipped at the Copmanhurst rodeo When the weekend comes I’m gonna set fire to the town I’ve had a bellyful of workin’ on the same old merry-go-round, I’m looking out as the sun goes down Drinking Bundeburg at the end of the day I’m twentyfive, I’m half alive The rest is only just a ticket away Give me a ticket, take me to a city hotel I’ve had a bellyful of livin’ on the same old merry-go-round, Yesterdays are gone Road is hard and long People carry on the best they can Bring down one more day Spending next week’s pay One more day of chasing, catching, gross mismatching blues But never satisfaction, Kings Cross is my home And all night long I roam Begging cents from foreigners and friends Time’s a twisted road And speed’s the only code Life’s a winding highway, byway, do it my way blues That never leads to answers, And metho is my friend Yes, our love has one end We’ll be wed ’till death or blindness part Oh yeah General health is poor My eyes are soaking sore Seeking for some night spot dancer, find no answer blues Lord, please repeat the question, The street boys are waiting for the late late show Their eyes are shifty and their pants are low A telephone rings in a room upstairs The veteran sings to the road below Mona leans against a lamppost at the corner of the street The afternoon papers blow around her feet She hooks her thumb beneath the strap of her bag Her cigarette gleams as she takes another drag The city mission stands in the late night rain The big drops streak the dirty windowpane The old lay preacher steps out from a one way lane The lady says “Coffee!” and the man says “yes”, Mona leans against the counter as she wipes her dress Her legs hold promise and her eyes are wide The preacher slides in from the night outside The laminex tables line along the wall Mona wanders through the cafe to the window stall The preacher asks softly for the time of day Then heads towards the mission with his take-away His eyes rake Mona as he jerks the door The outside rain becomes an inside roar Mona rests her toes on the late night cafe floor, Mona and the preacher Mona and the preacher Mona and the preacher Mona and the preacher, The city mission stands in the late night rain The big drops streak the dirty windowpane The old lay preacher leaps a swollen drain, Now some like to dance in the twilight zone Seekin’ after Mona when they’re all alone Some seek the preacher, their hearts to console Cause she heals the body, but he heals the soul, Monica I guess you know this time you’ve gone too far Trade your heart What you’re looking for don’t need those scars Out to get whatever you can see How to get passed your security I know just what you wanna be Oh, Monica, Walk away Maybe once you just might hear me say What’s yours today Is all I ever wanted anyway Take your time in choosing someone who’s Gonna be told what they’re gonna do Take my last chance if you want me to Oh, Monica, No more wasting my time It’ll work out just fine Thought they’d come to an end Gonna end up all mine Bring your friends if you want to ‘Cos I won’t be telling no lies There’s no sense in wasting our celebration Monica.
