Текст песни:

They were duelin′, Doolin-Dalton
High or low, it was the same
Easy money and faithless women
Red-eye whiskey for the pain
Go down, Bill Dalton, it must be God′s will,
Two brothers lyin′ dead in Coffeyville
Two voices call to you from where they stood
Lay down your lay books now
They′re no damn good
Better keep on movin′, Doolin-Dalton
′Til your shadow sets you free
If you′re fast, and if you′re lucky
You will never see that hangin′ tree

Well, the towns lay out across the dusty plains
Like graveyards filled with tombstones, waitin′ for the names
And a man could use his back, or use his brains
But some just went stir crazy, Lord, ′cause nothin′ ever changed
′Til Bill Doolin met Bill Dalton
He was workin′ cheap, just bidin′ time
Then he laughed and said,"I′m goin,"
And so he left that peaceful life behind
Mm

Текст песни:

He was a poor boy, raised in a small family
He kinda had a craving for somethin’ no one else could see
They say that he was crazy,
The kind that no lady should meet
He ran out to the city and wandered around in the street
He wants to dance, oh yeah,
He wants to sing, oh yeah,
He wants to see the lights a flashin’ and listen
To the thunder ring

He saw it in a window
The mark of a new kind of man
He kinda liked the feeling, so shiny and smooth in his hand
He took it to the country and practiced for days without rest
And then one day he felt if,
He knew he could stand with the best

They got respect, oh yeah,
He wants the same, oh yeah,
And it’s a certain kind of fool who
Like to hear the sound of his own name
Oo...

A poster on a storefront, the picture of a wanted man
He had a reputation spreading like fire throughout the land
It wasn’t for the money, at least it didn’t star t that way
It wasn’t for the runnin’ , but now he’s runnin’ everyday

Текст песни:

[Chorus:]
There′s a hole in the world tonight.
There′s a Cloud of fear and sorrow.
There′s a hole in the world tonight.
Don′t let there be a hole in the world tomorrow.

They say that anger is just love disappointed.
They say that love is just a state of mind,
but all this fighting over who will be anointed.
Oh how can people be so blind

[Chorus:]
There′s a hole in the world tonight.
There′s a Cloud of fear and sorrow.
There′s a hole in the world tonight.
Don′t let there be a hole in the world tomorrow.

Oh they tell me there′s a place over yonder,
cool water running through the burning sand,
until we we learn to love one
another we never reach the promise land.

[Chorus:]
There′s a hole in the world tonight.
There′s a Cloud of fear and sorrow.
There′s a hole in the world tonight.
Don′t let there be a hole in the world tomorrow.

[Repeat chorus: (no music)]

[Repeat chorus: 4x′s (fade out)]

Текст песни:

Springtime, and the acacias are blooming
Southern california will see one more day
Dreamland, and bus’ness is booming,
The birds are a singing as I drift away

She looks another year older,
From too many lovers who used her and ran
But some nights, oh, she looks like an angel
And she’s always willing to hold you again

So give her this dance,
She can’t be forsaken
Learn how to love her with all of her faults

She gave more than she’s taken,
And I’ll go down doing the hollywood waltz

Springtime and the lady is grieving
The lovers just stand there with nothing to say
They got what they wanted,
They’re packing and leaving
To look for another to love the same way

So give her this dance,
She can’t be forsaken
Learn how to love her
With all of her faults
She gave more than she’s taken
And I’ll go down doing the hollywood waltz
The hollywood waltz

Текст песни:

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair,
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air,
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light,
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim,
I had to stop for the night,

There she stood in the doorway,
I heard the mission bell,
And I was thinking to myself,
′This could be Heaven or this could be Hell′,
Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way,
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...

Welcome to the Hotel California,
Such a lovely place,
Such a lovely face,
Plenty of room at the Hotel California,
Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes Benz,
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls
friends,
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat,
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget,

So I called up the Captain,
′Please bring me my wine′
He said, ′We haven′t had that spirit here since nineteen
sixty nine′,
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night,
Just to hear them say...

Welcome to the Hotel California,
Such a lovely place,
Such a lovely face,
They livin’ it up at the Hotel California,
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis,

Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice,
And she said ′We are all just prisoners here, of our own
device′,
And in the master′s chambers,
They gathered for the feast,
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can′t kill the beast,

Last thing I remember, I was,
Running for the door,
I had to find the passage back,
To the place I was before,
′Relax,′ said the night man,
We are programmed to receive,
You can check out any time you like,
But you can never leave.

Текст песни:

I wish you peace when the cold winds blow
Warmed by the fire′s glow
I wish you comfort in the, the lonely time
And arms to hold you when you ache inside

I wish you hope when things are going bad
Kind words when times are sad
I wish you shelter from the, the raging wind
Cooling waters at the fever′s end

I wish you peace when times are hard
The light to guide you through the dark
And when storms are high and your, your dreams are low

I wish you the strength to let love grow on,
I wish you the strength to let love flow,

I wish you peace when times are hard
A light to guide you through the dark
And when storms are high and your, you dreams are low
I wish you the strength to let let grown on,
I wish you the strength to let love flow,
I wish you the strength to let love glow on
I wish you the strength to let love go on

Текст песни:

I was standing
All alone against the world outside
You were searching
For a place to hide

Lost and lonely
Now you’ve given me the will to survive
When we’re hungry...love will keep us alive

Don’t you worry
Sometimes you’ve just gotta let it ride
The world is changing
Right before your eyes
Now I’ve found you
There’s no more emptiness inside
When we’re hungry...love will keep us alive

I would die for you
Climb the highest mountain
Baby, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do

I was standing
All alone against the worlk outside
You were searching
For a place to hide
Lost and lonely
Now you’ve given me the will to survive
When we’re hungry...love will keep us alive
When we’re hungry...love will keep us alive
When we’re hungry...love will keep us alive

Текст песни:

Oo, midnight flyer
Engineer, won’t you let your whistle moan?
Oo, midnight flyer
I paid my dues and I feel like trav’lin’ on
A runaway team of horses ain’t enough to make me stay
So throw your rope on another man
And pull him down your way
Make him into someone who can take the place of me
Make him every kind of fool you wanted me to be

Oo, midnight flyer
Engineer, won’t you let your whistle moan?
Oo, midnight flyer,
I paid my dues and I feel like trav’lin’ on
Maybe I’ll go to santa fe, maybe san antone,
Any town is where I’m bound any way to get me gone
Don’t think about me, never let me cross your mind
’cept when you hear that midnight lonesome whistle whine

Oo, midnight flyer
Engineer, won’t you let your whistle moan?
Oo, midnight flyer
I paid my dues and I feel like trav’lin’ on
I paid my dues and I feel like trav’lin’ on
