FULL
MOON FEVER
1989
FREE
FALLIN'
She's a
good girl, loves her mamma
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too
It's a long day
living in Residua
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart
And I'm free,
free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
All the vampires
walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura Boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
A ll the good girls are home with broken hearts
And I'm free,
free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm
I wanna
glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
Gonna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for a while
And I'm free,
free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
I
WON'T BACK DOWN
Well I won't
back down, no I won't back down
You can stand me up at the gates of hell
But I won't back down
Gonna stand my
ground, won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
Gonna stand my ground and I won't back down
Hey baby, there
ain't no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground
And I won't back down.
Well I know
what's right, I got just on life
In a world that keeps on pushin' me around
But I'll stand my ground and I won't back down
Hey baby there
ain't no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground
And I won't back down
No, I won't back down
LOVE
IS A LONG ROAD
There was a girl
I knew
She said she cared about me
She tried to make my world
The way she thought it should be
Yeah we were desperate then
To have each other to hold
But love is a long road
Yeah love is a long long road
There were so
many times
I would wake up at noon
Yeah, with my head spinning 'round
I would wait for the moon
And give her one more chance
To try and save my soul
But love is a long road
Yeah love is a long long road
Some things are
hard to give up
Some things are hard to let go
Some things are never enough
I guess I only can hope
For maybe one more chance
To try and save my soul
But love is a long road
Yeah love is a long long road
Love is a
long long road
Y Yeah love is a long long road
Oh, it's a long long road
A FACE IN THE CROWD
Before all of
this ever went down
In another place, another town,
you were just a face in the crowd
Out in t he street walking around
A face in the crowd
Out of a dream,
out of the sky
Into my heart, into my life
And you were just a face in the crowd
Out in the street, thinking out loud
A face in the
crowd
RUNNIN'
DOWN A DREAM
It was a
beautiful day, the sun beat down
I had the radio on, I was drivin'
The trees went by, me and Del were singin'
Little Runaway, I was flyin'
Yeah runnin'
down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
I'm runnin' down a dream
I felt so good,
like anything was possible
I hit cruise control and rubbed eyes
The last three days the rain was unstoppable e
It was always cold, no sun shine
Yeah runnin'
down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
I'm runnin' down a dream
I rolled on as
the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down to make some time
There's something good waitin' down this road
I'm pickin' up whatever is mine
Yeah runnin'
down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
I'm runnin' down a dream
FEEL
A WHOLE LOT BETTER
The reason why,
Oh I can't say
I had to let you go babe,
And right away
After what you did,
I can't stay on
And I'll
probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone
Baby for a long
time,
You had me believe
That your love was all mine,
And that's the way it would be
But I didn't know,
That you were puttin' me on
And I'll
probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone, Oh when you're gone
Now I got to
say,
That it's not like before
And I'm not gonna play,
You're game any more
After what you did,
I can't stay on
And I'll
probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone
I'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone,
Oh when you're gone
Oh when you're gone
YER
SO BAD
My sister got
lucky, married a yuppie
Took him for all he was worth
Now she's a swinger dating a singer
I can' decide which is worse
I've got
you to save me
Aw, yer so bad
Best thing I've ever had
In a world gone mad
Yer so bad
My sister's
ex-husband can't get no lovin'
Walks around dog-faced and hurt
Now he's got nothin', head in the oven
I can't decide which is worse
But not
me, baby
I've got you to save me
Aw, yer so bad
Best thing I've ever had
In a world gone mad
Yer so bad
Oh, but not me,
baby
I've got you to save me
Aw, yer so bad
Best thing I've ever had
In a world gone mad
Yer so bad
Oh, but not me,
baby
I've got you to save me
Aw, yer so bad
Best t thing I've ever had
In a world gone mad
Yer so bad
DEPENDING
ON YOU
I ain't never
gonna let you down
All you gotta do is trust me
I would never make you some clown
Baby why won't you trust me
You give up so
easily I don't know why you can't see
I'm depending on you, don't let me down
I'm depending on you
Baby if you
can't change the world
Maybe you should just change yourself
You u sed to be such a sweet young girl
Why you wanna be someone else?
You give up so
easily
I don't know why you can't see
I'm depending on you
Is it to late now
I'm depending on you
THE
APARTMENT SONG
I used to live
in a two-room apartment
Neighbors knockin' on my wall
Times were hard, I don't wanna knock it
I don't miss it much at all
Oh yeah I'm
alright I just feel a little lonely tonight
I'm okay, most of the time
I just feel a little lonely tonight
I used to need
your love so badly
Then I came to live with it
Lately I get a faraway feeling
And the whole thing starts again
Oh yeah I'm
alright I just feel a little lonely tonight
I'm okay, most of the time
I just feel a little lonely tonight
I used to need
your love so badly
Then I came to live with it
Lately I get a faraway feeling
And the whole thing starts again
ALRIGHT
FOR NOW
Goodnight baby,
sleep tight my love
May God watch over you from above
Tomorrow I'm workin' what would I do
I'd be lost & lonely if not for you
So close your
eyes
We're alright for now
I've spent my life travelin'
I've spent my life free
I could not repay all you've done for me
So sleep tight
baby
Unfurrow your brow
And know I love you
We're alright for now
We're alright for now
A
MIND WITH A HEART OF ITS OWN
I remember her
standing in the tall grass and cattails
Away from the windows at the end of the day
Watching the men from the landing in the tall hats &
coat-tails
She'd never look different, but something would change
A mind with a
heart of its own
Yeah a mind with a heart of its own
Well the man out
to end us had a hurricane business
He's raise them from babies all by his self
But his teen-age accountant had become surrounded
He drank up the party and everyone left
A mind with a
heart of its own
Yes a mind with a heart of its own
Well I been to
Brooker and I been to Micanopy
I been to St. Louis too, I been all around the world
I've been over to your house
And you've been over sometimes to my house
I've slept in your tree house
My middle name is Earl
A mind with a
heart of its own
A mind with a heart of its own
Yeah a mi nd with a heart of its own
ZOMBIE
ZOO
All down the
street they're standin' in line
With white lipstick and one thing on their mind
Hey little freak with the lunch pail purse
Underneath th e paint you're just a little girl
Dancin' at the
Zombie Zoo, dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo
Cute little
dropout, how come you pack a rod
Is your mother in a clinic ? has your father got no job ?
Sometimes you're so impulsive,
You shaved off all you're hair
You look like Boris Karloff and you don't even care
You're dancin'
at the Zombie Zoo,
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do is
Dance down at the Zombie Zoo
She disappears
at sunrise, I wonder where
She goes until the night
Comes fallin' down again
She shows up with her friends half-alive
You can make a
big impression or
Go through life unseen
You might wind up restricted in Dover seventeen
It's so hard to be careful, so easy to be lead
Somewhere beyond the pavement
You'll find the living dead
Dancin' at the
Zombie Zoo, dancin' at th e Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo
Yeah dancin at the Zombie Zoo
Yeah dancin at the Zombie Zoo
