Prove You Wrong lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Stevie Nicks & Maren Morris)
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
I got my mind made up and my high heels on
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
You said if you left
I'd be laid up in a bed of tears
I'd be going crazy 'cause without you baby
I'd be sad and lonely 'round here
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
I got my mind made up and my high heels on
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong, no
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
I know you've told our friends
I won't find another man like you
Ooh, but no one's gonna hold me, no one's gonna love me
Nothin' like the way you do
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
I got my mind made up and my high heels on
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong, no
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
You've been too busy talking
To even see me walking
It wouldn't take much, it wouldn't take much
It wouldn't take much, yeah
It wouldn't take much, it wouldn't take much
It wouldn't take much
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
I got my mind made up and my high heels on
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong, no
It wouldn't take much to prove you wrong
It wouldn't take much, it wouldn't take much
It wouldn't take much, yeah
Oh no, it wouldn't take much, it wouldn't take much
It wouldn't take much
And I will prove you wrong, baby
(It wouldn't take much, it wouldn't take much)
(It wouldn't take much, yeah)
I got my high heels on, baby
(It wouldn't take much, it wouldn't take much)
And I will prove you wrong
(It wouldn't take much)
I got my high heels on now, baby
(It wouldn't take much, it wouldn't take much)
(It wouldn't take much)
No no, it wouldn't take much
(It wouldn't take much, it wouldn't take much)
(It wouldn't take much)
No no no
Live Wire lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Bonnie Raitt & Mavis Staples)
[Sheryl Crow (Bonnie Raitt) {Mavis Staples}:]
Well, I got me a lover as stubborn as a weed
But he met his match on the day he met me
(Even when I paddle my boat upshore)
Well, the river keep on floating me right back to your door
{No telling when the lightning strike}
{The way you make me feel, I gotta hold on tight}
I got a live wire
I got a live wire {Live wire, yeah}
(Some people just built that way)
(Never looking back at the mess they made)
Live wire
I got a live wire {Live wire}
Never knowin' what the cat'll drag in
But this birds gettin' out of his cage again
Got a live wire
I got a live wire
{Well, I got me a joint in the middle of town}
{Stay up all night when my friends come around}
You know it's all gonna change when the screen door slams
There comes a wild wind blowin' you back into my hands
{Next thing you know, you hair is standin' on end}
{Circus starts to blow me off my feet again}
I got a live wire
I got a live wire {Mm-mm}
(Some people just built that way)
(Never looking back at the mess they made)
Live wire
I got a live wire {Live wire}
Never knowin' what the cat'll drag in
But this birds gettin' out of his cage again
Got a live wire
I got a live wire
[Mavis Staples:]
Go on girl, do your own self thang, meet Sheryl
[Sheryl Crow (Mavis Staples):]
My love for you is a hurricane
(Come crashin' on me like a runaway train)
My love for you is a house on fire
(Well, I'm burnin' up with a strange desire)
[Sheryl Crow (Bonnie Raitt) {Mavis Staples}:]
I got a live wire
I got a live wire {Mm-mm}
(Some people just built that way)
(Never looking back at the mess they made)
I got a live wire {I got a live wire, yeah}
I got a live wire {I got a live wire}
Never knowin' what the cat'll drag in {Never knowin'}
But this birds gettin' out of his cage again

Talkin' 'bout a live
Got a live wire

Live wire
Got a live wire
I got a live wire
Go Mavis
Set your soul on fire, yes it will
Ha-ha, back up, y'all crazy
Tell Me When It's Over lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Chris Stapleton)
You wanna build your walls
I wanna knock them down
Looking for a heartbeat
But I don't hear a sound
But anything's better
Than hanging 'round together
Knowing that the other one's through
And honestly, I don't think it's the biggest when we sink
But it's feeling like we're breaking in two
Tell me when it's over
(Tell me when it's over)
Tell me when it's over
(Tell me when it's over)
Tell me when it's over
'Cause I don't wanna be
The last to know
And I count the days
But I think our number's up
Is there anyway, oh,
To make you feel enough?
And I can see something's changed
Everything's feeling strange
And neither one of us knows why
And I don't wanna face it
We're in a situation
Where somebody's always saying goodbye
Tell me when it's over
(Tell me when it's over)
Tell me when it's over
(Tell me when it's over)
Tell me when it's over
'Cause I don't wanna be
Caught up in a dream
(Caught up in a dream)
Wrapped in love supreme
But I know it's coming
(And I know it's coming)
Yeah I know it's coming
(And I know it's coming)
Coming, coming
See it in your face
(See it in your face)
You let a good thing go to waste
'Cause you keep on running
(Keep on running)
You keep on running away from love
Tell me when it's over
(Tell me when it's over)
Tell me when it's over
(Tell me when it's over)
Tell me when it's over
(Oh, tell me when it's over)
Tell me when it's over
(Tell me when it's over)
Tell me when it's over
(Tell me when it's over)
Tell me when it's over
(Oh-oh)
Caught up in a dream
(Caught up in a dream)
Wrapped in love supreme
But I know it's coming
(And I know it's coming)
Yeah I know it's coming
(And I know it's coming)
Coming, coming
See it in your face
(See it in your face)
You let a good thing go to waste
'Cause you keep on running
(Keep on running)
You keep on running away from love
Hold me in your arms
(Hold me in your arms)
Come on, let me feel your heart
Though I know it's coming
(And I know it's coming)
Yeah I know it's coming
(And I know it's coming)
Coming, coming
See it in your face
(See it in your face)
You let a good thing go to waste
'Cause you keep on running
(Keep on running)
You keep on running away from love
(You keep on running)
Keep on running, ooh-ooh
(Keep on running)
Keep on running
Keep on running
(Keep on running)
Yeah-yeah
Story Of Everything lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Chuck D, Andra Day & Gary Clark Jr)
[Chuck D:]
Sing
The story of everything, uh
Living, dying, lying, denial
Sing
The story of everything
Sing
[Sheryl Crow (Chuck D):]
Here's a story for you that will make your head spin 'round
Some troubled soul walks into church and guns everyone down
What did that congregation do, they forgave that boy somehow
Our do-nothing congress, they never make mistakes (Check 'em)
'Cause they don't show up to work except to give themselves a raise
The audacity of hope makes every bigot shake, yeah
That's the story of everything
That's the story of everything
That's the story of everything
You can live, you can die
But I know we gotta try to get along, get along
(Living, dying, lying, denial)
[Sheryl Crow (Andra Day) {Chuck D}:]
On Main Street USA, everybody's closing shop
'Cause them that's got get richer, it's the have and the have-nots
My cousin stays on welfare, 'cause it pays more than a job
Ooh yes it does
(Now every time they talk about the way it used to be)
(You keep on living in the past, don't do a damn thing for me)
(Don't tell me how it was, I tell you how it needs to be)
(Oh, yes I will)
{Sing}
That's the story of everything
That's the story of everything {That's right y'all, sing}
(That's the story of everything, yeah)
(You can live, you can die)
(But I know we gotta try to get along, yeah)
[Chuck D:]
Living, dying, lying, denial
Just hold them hands up, don't ya'll dare stop trying
Stompin' those feet and gasoline on these new seats
Save these babies spinning on this merry-go-crazy
Brees like the Saint, Chuck verse I'm stuck in
Cursing worse than the new blues, non-stuttering
What the O-M-G, S-M-H
Views of rating, news of hating, things get far gone if ya'll waiting
[Sheryl Crow:]
My mama held me in her arms, the same as I hold mine
I say my prayers and tell my babies everything is fine (Uh huh)
Sometimes I break down, these are surely troubled times
Oh, yes they are
[Sheryl Crow (Andra Day) {Chuck D}:]
{Sing}
That's the story of everything {Hey}
That's the story of everything {That's right y'all, sing}
[Andra Day:]
That's the story of everything, yeah
You can live, you can die
But I know we gotta try to get along, yeah
That's the story of everything
That's the story of everything
That's the story of everything, yeah
You can live, you can die
But I know we gotta try to get along, yeah
[Sheryl Crow {Chuck D}:]
Woo, woo {Yeah, aw yeah, yeah, aw yeah}
Oh, oh {Yeah, aw yeah, yeah, aw yeah}
That's the story {Yeah, aw yeah, yeah, aw yeah}
That I make it back
I know we gotta change (Story of everything)
{Live, die, try, try} (Story of everything)
That's the story (Live, die, know we gotta try)
Get along, yeah, yeah
[Chuck D {Sheryl Crow}:]
Views of rating, news of hating
Views of rating, news of hating (Get along)
Views of rating, news of hating
Things get far gone if ya'll waiting (To get along)
Views of rating, news of hating
Things get too far gone if ya'll waiting (To get along)
(To get along, try) {Get-get-get, get-get-get-get, get-get-get}
{Get-get-get-get along}
(To get along) {Oh, along, along, along, along}
Come on, clap your hands, keep that head up
Keep that head up, throw them hands up
Beware Of Darkness lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Eric Clapton, Sting & Brandi Carlile)
[Sheryl Crow:]
Watch out now, take care, beware of falling swingers
Dropping all around you
The pain that often lingers in your fingertips
Beware of darkness
[Brandi Carlile:]
Watch out now, take care, beware of thoughts that linger
Winding up inside your head
And the hopelessness around you
In dead of night beware of sadness
It can hit you, it can hurt you
Make you soft what is more
This is not what you are here for
[Sheryl Crow & Eric Clapton:]
Watch out now, take care, beware of soft shoe-shufflers
Dancin' down the sidewalks
As ancient cultures suffer
Wanders aimlessly
Beware of night
Watch out now, take care, beware of greedy leaders
And take you where you should not go
While weeping Atlas Cedars
They just want to grow, grow, and grow
Beware of darkness
(Beware of darkness)
Redemption Day lyrics - Sheryl Crow & Johnny Cash
I've wept for those who suffer long
But how I weep for those who've gone
Into rooms of grief and questioned wrong
But keep on killing
It's in the soul to feel such things
But weak to watch without speaking
Oh what mercy sadness brings
If God be willing
There is a train that's headed straight
To Heaven's gate, to Heaven's gate
And on the way, child and man
And woman wait, watch and wait
For redemption day
Fire rages in the streets
And swallows everything it meets
It's just an image often seen
On television
Come leaders, come ye men of great
Let us hear you pontificate
Your many virtues laid to waste
And we aren't listening
There is a train that's heading straight
To Heaven's gate, to Heaven's gate
And on the way, child and man
And woman wait, watch and wait
For redemption day
What do you have for us today
Throw us a bone but save the plate
On why you waited 'til so late
Was there no oil to excavate?
No riches in trade for the fate
Of every person who died in hate
Throw us a bone, you men of great
There is a train that's heading straight
To Heaven's gate, to Heaven's gate
And on the way, child and man
And woman wait, watch and wait
For redemption day
It's buried in the countryside
It's hidden in the shells of night
It's everywhere a baby cries
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Cross Creek Road lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Lukas Nelson)
I took the blue sky and turned it into rain
I left this town in disarray
The wind keeps blowin' through a skeleton of pain
I got to keep on movin' when no one knows my name
We're only travelers on this road
I've seen enough to keep me going
Some things are simply not worth noting
I found my peace on Cross Creek Road
I heard the whispers of a thousand fire flies
Buzzing around my empty head
I can't remember how it feels to really cry
Over something long ago
If it was real, I just don't know
We're only travelers on this road
I've seen enough to keep me going
Some things are simply not worth noting
I found my peace on Cross Creek Road
I drenched your memories once
Take me to a different time
I wanna stay awhile
I wanna see you smile
We're only travelers on this road
I've seen enough to keep me going
Some things are simply not worth noting
I found my peace on Cross Creek Road
I've seen enough too keep me going
Some things are simply not worth noting
I found my peace on Cross Creek Road
Everything Is Broken lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Jason Isbell)
(originally by Bob Dylan)
Broken lines, broken strings
Broken threads, broken springs
Broken idols, broken heads
People sleeping in broken beds
Ain't no use jiving
Ain't no use joking
Everything's broken
Broken bottles, broken plates
Broken switches, broken gates
Broken dishes, broken parts
Streets are filled with broken hearts
Broken words never meant to be spoken
Everything's broken
Seems like every time you stop and turn around
Something else just hits the ground
Broken cutters, broken saws
Broken buckles, broken laws
Broken bodies, broken bones
Broken voices on broken phones
Take a deep breath, feel like I'm chokin'
Everything's broken
Broken hands on broken ploughs
Broken treaties, broken vows
Broken pipes, broken tools
People bending broken rules
Hound dog howling, bullfrog croaking
Everything's broken
Every time you leave and go off some place
Things fall to pieces in my face
Broken hands on broken ploughs
Broken treaties, broken vows
Broken pipes, broken tools
People bending broken rules
Hound dog howling, bullfrog croaking
Everything's broken
Everything's broken
Everything's broken
Everything's broken
Everything's broken
Broken, broken
It's all broke down
Everything you see's broken, broken
Everything's broken, everything's broken
Everything's broken
Everything's broken
The Worst lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Keith Richards)
Well I said from the first
I am the worst kinda girl
For you to be around
Tear me apart
Including this old heart
That is true
Never ever put you down
You shouldn't stick with me
Trust me too much you see
Take all the pain, it's yours anyway
Get out kid
Who put the blame on me?
You oughta pass you see
Somewhere outside
Threw love aside
Now it's a tragedy
I said from the first
That I am the worst kind of girl
For you to be around
Lonely Alone lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Willie Nelson)
I heard you say bartender make it strong
I had to guess your lover's gone
I don't know and you don't know me
But there's no reason to be lonely alone
Is this seat taken, do you like this song?
Do you tear up when it comes on?
You know it's always the same for me
For there's no reason to be lonely alone
How 'bout a friend that looks like me?
A little gem, a little misery
We could use a little company
Maybe honey that's what we could be
You probably heard this line a thousand times
But you seem like someone I have known
Is it the whiskey or do you agree
There's no reason to be lonely alone
How 'bout a friend that looks like me?
A little gem, a little misery
We could use a little company
Maybe honey that's what we could be
Bartender say's it's closing time
You go your way and I'll go mine
Don't want you thinkin' that I'm easy
There's no reason to be lonely alone
There's no reason to be lonely alone
Border Lord lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Kris Kristofferson)
Darkness had us covered when we split from Minnesota
In the morning, in the rain
Like his eyes feelin' and the street was slick and shiny as a snake
Each of us was hummin' to a half forgotten nickel hangin' over
In the brain
Time and time been thinkin' of the time we never had the time to take
Losin' to the risin' cost of livin', I am lovin' hard
Even with yesterday behind ya
Burnin' every bridge you cross, it's burnin' down before you're off
You're runnin' like the Devil just in time
Breakin' any ties before they find you
Takin' any comfort you can find
Runnin' like you're runnin' out of time
Take it all, take it easy
'Til it's over
Understanding when you're headin' for the Border Lord you're bound to cross that line
Good lookin' women every time you stumble
Waitin' there to catch you when you fall, when you fall
Get into you bad enough to let 'em keep you backin' up
'Til just before your back's against the wall
Breakin' any ties before they find you
Takin' any comfort you can find
Runnin' like you're runnin' out of time
Take it all, take it easy
'Til it's over
Understanding when you're headin' for the Border Lord you're bound to cross that line
Oh
Across the line
Across the line
Across that line
Oh, yeah
Still The Good Old Days lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Joe Walsh)
I like it when you turn the radio on
You still get worked up to your favorite song
Even when you sing the wrong words
At the top of your lungs
I like the way you're able to ignore
You've told the same joke ten times before
Before you say the punchline
You're laid out on the floor
One thing I can count on
I never get bored
'Cause I might be crazy
And you might be lazy
But I like it that way
I think it's high time
We break out the good wine
Raise a glass and say
These still are the good old days
Well, I like the way that you try to explain
You don't know who it is or what is his name
But he was in that movie
The one about "The Show"
Then you get mad 'cause
I'm supposed to know, oh
'Cause I might be crazy
And you might be lazy
But just fine that way
I think it's high time
We break out the good wine
Raise a glass and say
These still are the good old days
We might be crazy
We might be lazy
It's just fine that way
I think it's high time
We break out some moonshine
Oh and call it a day
Oh and as long as we're walking
We'll still be rocking
Yeah we're rocking away
'Cause I think it's high time
We break out the good wine
And raise a glass and say
We've come a long, long way
But these still are the good old days
The good old days
I like it when you turn the radio on
The good old days
Wouldn't Want To Be Like You lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. St. Vincent)
Money is the Bentley parked on Wall Street
Money is the new friends you make each week
Money is the inside guy at the bank
Money is the yacht right before it sank
Bet you never thought you'd want so much
Bet you never thought it'd be so tough
So you sell your soul for a piece of the pie
Now you can't sleep so you don't even try
I wouldn't want to be like you
I wouldn't want to be like you, no way
I wouldn't want to be like you
You tell a lie, you tell a lie, you tell a lie
But that don't make it true
Money is the monkey giving you a back ache
Money is the grease in the palm of a handshake
Money covers up all the evidence
Not taking all the money would have made the best sense
Bet you never thought you'd bleed that much
Bet you never thought it'd be so rough
You thought you could beat them at their game
But they wrote the rules, now you take the blame
I wouldn't want to be like you
I wouldn't want to be like you, no way
I wouldn't want to be like you
You tell a lie, you tell a lie, you tell a lie
But that don't make it true
All the players on the sidelines
Feigning shock and innocence
Hear no, see no, speak no evil
Take the fall for all of the place
Money is the orange jumpsuit you're wearing
Money is the gray roots in your blonde hair and
Money is the ex-wife and the ex-girlfriends
Money you hid is the money they're spending
Here's to the brand new diamond bracelet
Here's to the too tight ankle bracelet
Here's to the days before you went down
'Cause what goes around comes around and around
I wouldn't want to be like you
I wouldn't want to be like you, no way
Oh, I wouldn't want to be like you
You tell a lie, you tell a lie, you tell a lie
But that don't make it true
I wouldn't want to be like you, no way
Oh, I wouldn't want to be like you
You tell a lie, you tell a lie, you tell a lie
But that don't make it true
No, that don't make it true
No, that don't make it true
Don't lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Lucius)
Don't
Hold me and tell me that everything's gonna be fine
Don't
Tell me how my love for you will grow deeper in time
Here as I stand in the light of day
I move my lips but no one hears one word I say
So don't
Carry my suitcase and tell me how lovely I look
Don't
Dream of me ironing the sheets or learning to cook
Yesterday was a long time ago
If only I knew then what it is I now know
Is anybody out there?
Doesn't anybody understand?
Love is not a contract
Made between a woman and a man
Don't
Tell me that dreams are devised for the young and for fools
Don't
Kiss me and tell me that we can rewrite all the rules
Here as I stand in the light of day
I move my lips but no one hears one word I say
Is anybody out there?
Doesn't anybody understand?
Love is not a handshake
Made between a woman and a man
Don't
Whisper I love you and tell me it's all for the best
Don't
Tell me I'm tired, I'll feel better once I get some rest
Nobody's Perfect lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Emmylou Harris)
Stickers on a suitcase tell me where you've been
Could this be the one place you don't leave again
All the best intentions lead you down the path
Of wishing you could take your lame excuses back
Nobody's perfect, how could anyone be?
Nobody's perfect, especially me
I've been around enough to know
Sometimes it's hard to see
Nobody's perfect
There are no mistakes in life, that's what I find
If they want to tear us down, they can get in line
Proving something to them is way beyond my reach
At least if we screw up, we do it honestly
Nobody's perfect, how could anyone be?
Nobody's perfect, especially me
"I'm sorry" goes a long, long way
But sometimes it's hard to say
Nobody's perfect
Proving something to the world is way beyond my reach
At least if we screw up we do it honestly
Nobody's perfect, how could anyone be?
Nobody's perfect, especially me
"I'm sorry" goes a long, long way
Sometimes it's hard to say
Nobody's perfect
Flying Blind lyrics - Sheryl Crow(feat. James Taylor)
No one tells you when you're young
That life is full of questions
And there aren't that many answers
But I've come to believe sometimes
"Yes" or "No" depends on circumstances
Every morning I wake up, stare into my coffee cup
Never knowing what I'll find
Every day's a brand new day
I'm just tryna find a way to leave the other ones behind
'Cause I'm flying blind
I got no net to catch me when I fall
And I don't mind 'cause I am only human after all
Well then once upon a time seems like only yesterday
I thought I'd live forever
But now every breath I take I don't dare speculate
We can't predict the weather
Every morning I wake up, stare into my coffee cup
Never knowing what I'll find
Every day's a brand new day
I'm just tryna find a way to leave the other ones behind
And I'm flying blind
I got no net to catch me if I fall
I don't mind it seems I'm only human after all
Now and then I find myself back against the wall
With everything in front of me that I can't see at all
Well I'm flying blind
I got no net to catch me when I fall
And I don't mind 'cause I am only human after all
For The Sake Of Love lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Vince Gill)
[Sheryl Crow:]
Another time, another place
If we met again would it be this way?
Knowing now what comes around is custom made
But those are in the wings
We'll wait for love to show its face
And all I know is I don't wanna go on
If it means feelin' nothing
Only to find words are not enough
And I guess I played it wrong
Tell me now is there something I could have done
For the sake of love?
And if our love was just a play
About a ground scribbled on a page
Baby I would play the part of Joan of Arc
Strong enough to mend your heart
Tonight and every day
And all I know is I, I don't wanna go on
If it means feelin' nothing
Only to find that love is not enough
And I, I guess I played it wrong
Tell me now is there something I could have done
For the sake of love?
[Vince McGill:]
Heaven knows that love is hard enough
When the world belongs to those who don't feel as much
And heaven knows we don't need them anyway
It doesn't matter what they say about us
[Sheryl Crow:]
I let you slip away
Tell me now was there something I could have done
For the sake of love?
For the sake of love
And Your Days Are Gone lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Dave Alvin & Phil Alvin)
(from "Ghost Brothers of Darkland County" soundtrack)
Some people give up on the money
Some people give up for the pain
Some people give up for no reason
Unable to start again
Then they give up for the promise
On a ticket that they can't sell
Then they give up on each other
Before the truth they'll tell
And our days are gone
And the days are gone
You can give up for confusion
Too afraid to take another step
And all your dreams come crashing down
For a moment you'd like to forget
And in that tiny moment
You can change the course of time
Then your luck runs out
Up the water spout
Cut down in your prime
And our days are gone
And your days are gone
In the whispers of young lovers
Who cannot organize their thoughts
That they for the first time
The sweet sadness of love's been bought
What do you do with such a thing
So powerful so frail
Holding hands you jump in the water
A story only dante could tell
And our days are gone
And your days are gone
Well I'm sorry for what has happened
And I guess that you are too
And here we are lost and forgotten
The price we pay for what we do
But I want you to know that I loved you both
The best way that I knew how
Some bad mistakes our soul will take
Don't give up on us now
And our days are gone
And our days are gone
And our days are gone
Away From This World lyrics - Sheryl Crow
(from "Ghost Brothers of Darkland County" soundtrack)
There is a heaven somewhere
Each word is its own little prayer
Where our souls can soar and be free
Away from this world
A place where there's no earthly pain
No teardrops being cried in vain
We will all be children again
Away from this world
So here we are
From dust to eternity
And here we will stay
'Til the truth just lets us be
Where each star we can reach out and touch
There's peace of mind for each one of us
Hope, forgiveness, and trust
Away from this world
There is a heaven somewhere
Where each word is its own little prayer
Where our souls can soar and be free
Away from this world
Away from this world
Away from this world
Circles lyrics - Sheryl Crow
We couldn't turn around 'til we were upside down
I'll be the bad guy now, but know I ain't too proud
I couldn't be there even when I tried
You don't believe it, we do this every time
Seasons change and our love went cold
Feed the flame 'cause we can't let go
Run away, but we're running in circles
Run away, run away
I dare you to do something
I'm waiting on you again, so I don't take the blame
Run away, but we're running in circles
Run away, run away, run away
Let go, I got a feeling that it's time to let go
I said so, I knew that this was doomed from the get-go
You thought that it was special, special
But it was just the sex though, the sex though
And I still hear the echoes, the echoes
I got a feeling that it's time to let it go, let it go
Seasons change and our love went cold
Feed the flame 'cause we can't let go
Run away, but we're running in circles
Run away, run away
I dare you to do something
I'm waiting on you again, so I don't take the blame
Run away, but we're running in circles
Run away, run away, run away
Maybe you don't understand what I'm going through
It's only me, what you got to lose?
Make up your mind, tell me, what are you gonna do?
It's only me, let it go
Seasons change and our love went cold
Feed the flame 'cause we can't let go
Run away, but we're running in circles
Run away, run away
I dare you to do something
I'm waiting on you again, so I don't take the blame
Run away, but we're running in circles
Run away, run away, run away
Run away, run away
I dare you to do something
I'm waiting on you again, so I don't take the blame
Run away, but we're running in circles
Run away, run away, run away
D'yer Mak'er lyrics - Sheryl Crow
(originally by Led Zeppelin)
Oh, oh oh oh oh

You don't have to go, oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go
Ay, ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry, ay ay ay ay

I still love you so, I can't let you go
I love you - ooh baby I love you
Oh yeah

Please don't go
I need you so oh oh oh oh
I need you so
Dancing With Your Shadow lyrics - Sheryl Crow
(from "A Boy Called Po" soundtrack)
Never be afraid
I'll be there
There are angels in our places
Look around
The human heart can notice things
Others miss
Even strangers notice visions
When they're down
Don't worry
I'll be dancing with your shadow
I'll see you in every way
All of me never leaves all of you
And as you wander
Through the sky
High in stardust
Right behind you
I will find you
Every time
Our love means
I'll be dancing with your shadow
I'll see you in every way
All of me never leaves all of you
Speaking without words
In your way
Hope we fly to
Say goodbye to
In our lights
Don't worry
Never worry
'Cause all of me never leaves you
Forever lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Lay your head down, don't you worry tonight
Can't fix the world no matter how you try
Give it some time, you will find
Everything is alright
There's no such thing as forever
But you and me, we've got today
And every moment we're together, I know there is a heaven
'Cause you make me feel that way
When I get down, you're the one that I call
You pick me up every time that I fall
And when you laugh, nothing else matters to me at all
There's no such thing as forever
But you and me, we've got today
And every moment we're together, I know there is a heaven
'Cause you make me feel that way
Garbage out in space, garbage in LA
Baby, what a waste
Everybody's mad, everybody's sad
See it in their face
I gotta have the latest
Gotta have the best, the most
If you wanna be happy
Light a match and watch it all go up in smoke
There's no such thing as forever
If we get stuck in yesterday
And every moment we're together, I know there is a heaven
'Cause you make me feel that way
There's no such thing as forever, no such thing
But you and me, we've got today
And every moment we're together, I know there is a heaven
'Cause you make me feel that way
Home Again lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Dave Alvin, Phil Alvin & Taj Mahal)
(from "Ghost Brothers of Darkland County" soundtrack)
The whole world could tell your side
It just says so in your eyes
Sorry that you feel so bad
But I think you'll be alright
You've got many friends here
To be by your side
We're all to help you
Oh, oh, home again
Aren't you glad to be home again?
Oh, oh, home again
You're amongst friends
Aren't you glad to be home again?
The world can make you weary and mean
Just take a look outside
Some will try to buy your dreams
And hide the truth with lies
Good fortune comes your way
Please don't stand back and scream
It never wanted you here anyway
Oh, oh, home again
Aren't you glad to be home again?
Oh, oh, home again
You're amongst friends
Aren't you glad to be home again?
Why don't you rest here a while?
Let your anxiety subside
Maybe walk around the town
You don't have to speak, if you got nothing left to say
And we'll try to ease your pain
Tomorrow's another day
Oh, oh, home again
Aren't you glad to be home again?
Oh, oh, home again
You're amongst friends
Aren't you glad to be home again?
Oh, oh, home again
Aren't you glad to be home again?
Oh, oh, home again
Aren't you glad to be home again?
I Feel Happy lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Mamma's got a feeling, she's up all night
Do we give in?
Do we let go of the fight?
Well I don't know
Don't wanna be down, dragged through, messed around
Everybody's got their little fights to fight
I say no
I Feel Happy
I Feel Happy
I Feel Happy
Nothing you can say or do
Is ever gonna make me feel blue
No, no
Monkey see and monkey do
Follow me, I'll follow you
Well not tonight
Not this time
So cool to be suicidal
Maybe I will get up and feel good today
Cause this is my life
I Feel Happy
I Feel Happy
I Feel Happy
Nothing you can say or do
Is ever gonna make me feel blue
No, no
Monkey see and monkey do
Follow me, I'll follow you
Well not tonight
Not this time
So cool to be suicidal
Maybe I will get up and feel good today
Cause this is my life
I Feel Happy
I Feel Happy
I Feel Happy
Nothing you can say or do
Is ever gonna make me feel blue
No, no
In The End lyrics - Sheryl Crow
There's a fly on the wall, in the house on the hill
Where the king of the world, watches TV
And the people await, for his latest mandate
To a nation of angry believers
His words are a trap, while his loyal band of thugs
Cover up all his many transgressions
The fly lands on his ear and whispers, "What's there to fear, as long as you're still the obsession?"
Is it too late to turn back now?
Too late to see the light?
Do you make a vow to Heaven and Hell?
When you wake up at night, do you ask yourself?
In the end
Did you feed them? How'd you treat them?
Is it so hard to love?
In the end
Like you mean it, like you've seen it
You get back what you give, in the end
There's a man on the cross with His arms open wide
And a fear that they'll quench the world's fires
But His name is a shield to the ones who would fear
Their own power and greed, and desire
In the end
Did you need them? How'd you treat them?
Is it so hard to love?
In the end
Like you mean it, like you've seen it
You get back what you give, in the end
Is it so hard to love?
In the end
You get back what you give, in the end
You'll only live once, or maybe you'll live twice
Depending on how well you spend it
You see, karma's a drag, you come back as a rat
Dozen traps, they'll bite your own descendants
Is it too late to turn back now?
Too late to turn around?
You'll get, one chance in this life
You can turn around things or you can close your eyes
In the end
Did you feed them? How'd you treat them?
Is it so hard to love?
In the end
Like you mean it, like you've seen it
You get back what you give, in the end
In the end
Did you hear them? Did you feed them?
Is it so hard to love?
In the end
Like you mean it, like you've seen it
You get back what you give, in the end
You get back what you give in, the end
Oh, in the end
Oh, in the end
Juanita lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Emmylou Harris)
(originally by Flying Burrito Brothers)
No affection were the words that stuck on my mind
When she walked out on me for the very last time
Oh mama, sweet mama, can you tell me what to say?
I don't know what I've done to be treated this way
In a cold dirty room, that's where I found myself
With a bottle of wine and some pills on the shelf
Oh mama, sweet mama, can you tell me what to say?
I don't know what I've done and I'm feeling so ashamed
Then an angel appeared, she was just seventeen
In a dirty old gown with a conscious so clean
Oh mama, sweet mama, can you tell me what to say?
She's brought back the life that I once threw away
She's brought back the life that I once threw away
Jukin' lyrics - Sheryl Crow
(from "Ghost Brothers of Darkland County" soundtrack)
You gotta be a little drunk
And a little bit crazy
If you want to go jukin' with me
I can be a lady
Or a snake in the bedroom
I can be what you want me to be
I can turn off the lights
With a flip of my hip
I can kiss your lips real hard
I can drink you under the table
Leave you weak out in the backyard
But it'll be alright
When we get it tight
And we're out there jukin'
When you drive and drive with the top down
Then you can't drive no more
You put some change into the jukebox
And go bare-footin' out on the dance floor
Make a show of yourself
Let them know you're alive
Until they 86 you out the door
Then you get back out there on the road
And you go jukin' some more
But it'll be all right
So let's get tight and go out jukin'
But it'll be all right
So let's get tight and go out jukin'
You gotta be a little drunk
And a little bit crazy
If you want to go jukin' with me
I can be a lady
Or a snake in the bedroom
I can be what you want me to be
Light In Your Eyes lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Something is happenin'
Everything's different
But everything is fine, yeah
This is the good stuff
And yesterday's only what you leave behind
It's only in your mind
You gotta talk to the one who made you
Talk to the one who understands
Talk to the one who gave you
All the light in your eyes
All the light in your eyes
No use pretendin'
You never existed
Until you saw the light, yeah
Well, you're just beginning
You haven't missed it, it's all ahead of you
And you know what to do
You gotta talk to the one who made you
Talk to the one who understands
Talk to the one who gave you
All the light in your eyes
All the light in your eyes
Here comes the world
And she is beautifully mysterious
She's got it all and you say
"Give it to me"
Nobody's happy
That's not the world I know inside
Where everybody hides
You gotta talk to the one who made you
Talk to the one who understands
Talk to the one who gave you
All that light in your eyes
All that light in your eyes
You gotta talk to the one who loves you
Talk to the one who understands
Talk to the one who gave you
All the light in your eyes
All the light in your eyes
Yeah, thank you, thank you
Yeah, everything great and small
Yeah, thank you, thank you
For the light in your eyes
Yeah, thank you, thank you
Yeah, everything great and small
Yeah, thank you, thank you
For the light in your eyes
For the light in your eyes
Live With Me lyrics - Sheryl Crow
(originally by The Rolling Stones)
I got nasty habits
I take tea at three
Yes, and the meat I eat for dinner
It must be hung up for a week
My best friend, he shoots water rats
And feeds them to his geese
Don't you think there's a place for you
In between the sheets?
Come on now, honey
We can build a home for three
Come on now, honey
Don't you wanna live with me?
And there's a score of harebrained children
They're all locked in the nursery
They got earphone heads, they got dirty necks
They're so 20th century
Well, they queue up for the bathroom
'Round about 7:35
Don't you think we need a woman's touch
To make it come alive?
You'd look good pram-pushing
Down the high street
Come on now, honey
Don't you wanna live with me?
Whoa, the servants they're so helpful, dear
The cook she is a whore
Yeah, the butler has a place for her
Behind the pantry door
The maid, she's French, she's got no sense
She's wild for Crazy Horse
And when she strips, the chauffeur flips
The footman's eyes get crossed
Don't you think there's a place for us
Right across the street?
Don't you think there's a place for you
In between the sheets?
Lonely Town, Lonely Street lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Citizen Cope)
(originally by Bill Withers)
You can live your life in a crowded city
You can walk along a crowded street
But the city really ain't no bigger
Than the friendly people, the friendly people you meet
You might be a sweet young, sweet young pretty pretty
And at the dances you can't keep your seat
But if dances don't lead to romances
You might as well be born, be born with two left feet
You might be a sweet-toned sure 'nuff high-class talker
You might be a stone, stone expert at kissing
But it don't do too much good to be talkin'
Brother, when there ain't no, ain't nobody listenin'
And if you are shy, just not much of a talker
You don't impress the people that you meet
You might as well be a lonely walker
In a lonely town, on a lonely street
Love Will Remain lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Give me answers
Give me questions
To keep asking
Through the noise in my head
Say it loudly
I am someone
I am no one
I am all yours instead
And just like every grain of sand
You hold me safely in your hand
Where love has been
Love will remain
In my lifetime
I've been places
I've seen faces
And I know what I fear
To feel nothing
To want something
You can't hang onto
When the outcome is tears
I lift my voice into the void, oh
You hear me calling and my heart is left no choice
Where love has been
Love will remain
Where love has been
Love will remain
Love will remain
Love will remain
Here I am
I am willing
Here I am
I am able
Here I am
If you need me
Here I am
I'll be stronger
Here I am
I'll be meagre
Here I am
Down on my knees
In the quiet
Of the deepness
Of the journey
When the darkness is whole
You are lovely
You are comfort
You're forever
To have and to hold
Where love has been
Love will remain
Where love has been
Love will remain
Love will remain
Love will remain
Because I have loved
I am changed
Because I have loved
I can see
Because I have loved
I am changed
Because I am loved
I am free
Love will remain
Love will remain
Love will remain
Here I am
I am willing
Here I am
I am able
Here I am
If you need me
Here I am
I'll be stronger
Here I am
I'll be meagre
Here I am
Down on my knees
Love will remain
Love will remain
Love will remain
Murder In My Heart lyrics - Sheryl Crow
(from NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack, Vol. 2)
I used to love a boy
I still see him in these rooms
His head was like the summer
And his voice was like the moon
Sometimes he makes me heavy
A deeper shade of blue
And there's murder in my heart
And there's nothing I can do
I used to love a boy
But now he's two years dead
I hear myself repeating
What my father always said
Don't let it make you bitter
And watch while you're blue
I got murder in my heart
But I'd rather die instead
Somebody would've taken on a lover
Does anybody need another friend
Right now anybody doesn't need
I kinda like the ocean
With its arms stretched open wide
But I know what it means
To be dragged out with the tide
And to fight from going under
And to keep myself alive
And there's murder in my heart
And there's water in my eyes
Went out late last night
Just to get a little air
And I walked beneath the streetlights
And I saw nobody there
Just a bitterness that followed me
A saddening surprise
There's murder in my heart
And I made me that way
There's murder in my heart
I can't make it go away
Night Life lyrics - Sheryl Crow
(originally by Willie Nelson)
When the evening sun goes down
You will find me hangin' round
The night life ain't no good life
But it's my life
I hear you, is it your life too?
Many people just like me
Dreaming of old used-to-be's
And the night life ain't no good life
But it's my life
Listen to the blues they're playin'
Listen to what the blues are sayin'
Mine is just another scene
From the world of broken dreams
And the night life ain't no good life
Oh, but it's my life
Yes it is
Listen to the blues they're playin'
Oh listen to the blues and what they're sayin'
Mine is just another scene
From the world of broken dreams
And the night life ain't no good life
But it's my life
My life
My life
Thank you so much!
Old Soul lyrics - Colin Macleod & Sheryl Crow
I got the old soul deep inside of me
I'm the old soul, see
I never was young, I always felt the same
I am the old soul, see
For all of my waking hours
And all of my restless sleep
I have only one conclusion
I have a choice to keep
Be there for you, be there for you
Be there for you, be there for you
Be there for you
I am the old soul in modern time
The lights get brighter each day
And in my own way, I wait upon the time
It won't be long now, you'll see
For all of my waking hours
And all of my restless dream
I have only one conclusion
That I've a choice to keep
Be there for you, be there for you
Be there for you, be there for you
Be there for you
Be there for you, be there for you
Be there for you, be there for you
Be there for you
I am the old soul in a modern time
I am the old soul, you see
On The Outside lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Stood close enough to hear you say
"Do as the beautiful ones do"
Tore out my picture from its frame
Just wanted to be one of you
Standing on the outside, lookin'
Funny how you see the truth
But the feeling does come back to you
"She's crazy as anyone can be"
That's what they say, they say of me
What wanting love can make some do
It isn't my fault, heredity
Standing on the outside, lookin'
State of grace, state of sin
Standing on the outside, lookin'
I cannot feel a single thing
But the feeling does come back again
This morning feels like yesterday
Yesterday follows me around
Where do you go when no one cares?
Six feet under, underground
Standing on the outside, lookin'
State of grace, state of sin
Standing on the outside, lookin'
I cannot feel a single thing
But the feeling will come back again
Reach Around Jerk lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Wake me up when you are over
Cause I don't want to hear you say
That you've got worries on your shoulder
Well, I'd love to say they'd up and go away
I know that you ain't cryin'
But that don't mean that you don't feel
Deep inside you might be dying
That may be the only thing that's ever real
It's a reach around jerk in a button-down shirt
Talking sweet to keep all the little people happy
When the talk is cheap, the shit gets deep
Better face reality that everybody's had a bad day or two
They don't treat you like the way you think they should
So you lick your bitter wounds, turn and blame the government
Establishment, hide your head so no one sees you when you're down
Wake me up when you are over
Let me know how long it took
If you ever need my sympathy
Honey, here's how deep you're gonna have to look
I know when you get older
You'll learn the art of how to please
But right now you're just getting colder
And my love is gonna bring you to your knees
It's a reach around jerk in a button-down shirt
Talking sweet to keep all the little people happy
When the talk is cheap, the shit gets deep
Better face reality that everybody's had a bad day or two
They don't treat you like the way you think they should
So you lick your bitter wounds, turn and blame the government
Establishment, hide your head so no one sees you when you're down
If you need me, I am able
And if you need me, I'll be here
But when you reach across the table
Honey, you won't find me shedding any tears
Rodeo lyrics - Sheryl Crow
There comes a son, a son of angels
Carrying an empty glass
Trying to fill it to the surface
'Til your thirst for love has passed
Carry on, carry the world
You must get worn with all the weight
Well I'd take it in but you won't know where
And nowhere's where we're heading fast
Oh, oh, rodeo
Slow turning to and fro
Oh, oh, rodeo
Where we land no one knows
We're not blind to what it is
We never were the ignorant kind
Well life is short, but oh it's wide
It's wide enough to change your mind
Well I believe in ever-after
And, just in case, what's after that
Don't I love you like the angels?
And could you ever love me back?
Oh, oh, rodeo
Slow turning to and fro
Oh, oh, rodeo
Where we land no one knows
Well, strangers now we are becoming
And stranger now we have become
Than any fiction ever written
Written by the cruelest ones
Oh, oh, rodeo
Slow turning to and fro
Oh, oh, rodeo
Where we land no one knows
So Goddam Smart lyrics - Sheryl Crow (feat. Dave Alvin & Phil Alvin)
(from "Ghost Brothers of Darkland County" soundtrack)
Showed up at the wrong time
I've been kept outside
Never could get in at all
Even when I tried
Now I seen this whole world cryin'
Seven days from the start
I'm the only son conceived through wisdom
And that's what makes me so goddamn smart
So goddamn smart
You ain't nothing but a liar
I hear those words that you spew
You are unkind and thoughtless
And I'm ashamed of the things that you call the truth
But look at me with all of this beauty
And my words are spoken from the heart
I'm strong and getting stronger
That's what makes me so goddamn smart
So goddamn smart
Oh here we are
From dust to eternity
And here we will stay
'Til the truth just lets us be
So goddamn smart
So goddamn smart
You better keep your distance
My old ex-best friend
As we lived and died brothers forever
Our best wishes to you all we'll send
And some days are better than others
It seems our actions have torn us apart
And the moral is to try to love one another
That's what makes us so goddamn smart
So goddamn smart
So goddamn smart
Still The Same lyrics - Sheryl Crow
I'm not here to make you cry
Wake you up or change your mind
Life is what it is
And there's so much more than this
Maybe the way it was has changed
But you and me, we're still the same
I wish we had a crystal ball that we could ask what we should do
A Technicolor movie featuring the tale of me and you
And if the rear-view mirror showed us how and where we went astray
Would we keep heading down this road, or would we choose to turn away?
I'm not here to make you cry
Bring you down or question why
The world is what it is
But there's so much more than this
Maybe the way it was has changed
But you and me, we're still the same
What if the Earth refused to turn until we knew its worth?
If rain refused to fall and the sun hid like some child who had been hurt?
Maybe the truth is only found in ancient scribblings on a wall
That told the story of the people and what brought about their fall
I'm not here to make you cry
To save your soul or watch you die
'Cause this life is what it is
But there's so much more than this
Maybe the way it was has changed
But you and me, we're still the same
Words only get in the way
Life's not black or white or gray
It's just a bunch of lovely days
Well, I'm not here to make you cry
Wake you up or change your mind
You know life is what it is
But there's so much more than this
Maybe the way it was has changed
But you and me, we are the same
The Dreaming Kind lyrics - Sheryl Crow
I turned off the news again tonight
It's getting hard to watch everyone fight
Every time I turn my face
I see the world from outer space
How small we are but look how much we have to waste
Giving it all I got
There'll be no more wasting precious time
Giving it all I got
Nothing's ever going to change my mind
That we're beautiful inside
You could say I'm the dreaming kind
Could you imagine it, if love was blind
If on this earth everybody was kind
Oh what a different world it'd be
If peace was our reality
But how far will we have to fall
Before we meet destiny
Giving it all I got
There'll be no more wasting precious time
Giving it all I got
Nothing's ever going to change my mind
That we're beautiful inside
You could say I'm the dreaming kind
Every child is pure until he learns to hate
They watch with innocence and imitate
They say love can conquer all, well, there is no time to wait
Giving it all I got
Even if I can't change a thing
Giving it all I got
Gonna fight to keep remembering
We are beautiful inside
You could say I'm the dreaming kind
Woman In The White House lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Don't you think it's time we put a woman in the White House
With a whole new attitude?
We could use a little female common sense
Down on Pennsylvania Avenue
After two hundred thirty-something years of waiting
It's way past overdue
Yeah, I think it's time we put a woman in the White House
Girls, how about you?
Well, we like to spend money
But not money we ain't got
And we can balance a checkbook
And girls, let me tell you what
It's time to clean up Capitol Hill
With a shovel and a pair of high heels
We've seen what the good ol' boys can do
Now it's our turn to take a shot
Don't you think it's time we put a woman in the White House
With a whole new attitude?
We could use a little female common sense
Down on Pennsylvania Avenue
After two hundred thirty-something years of waiting
It's way past overdue
Yeah, I think it's time we put a woman in the White House
Girls, how about you?
There'd be a lot less fussin' and fightin' and carrying on
There'd be a lot more lovin' and listening and getting along
Just look at the mess we're in
Heck, I'd vote for Loretta Lynn
I guarantee that we'd all be
Singing a different song
Don't you think it's time we put a woman in the White House
With a whole new attitude?
We could use a little female common sense
Down on Pennsylvania Avenue
After two hundred thirty-something years of waiting
It's way past overdue
Yeah, I think it's time we put a woman in the White House
Girls, how about you?
Well, after two hundred thirty-something years of waiting
It's way past overdue
Yeah, I think it's time we put a woman in the White House
Girls, how about you?
Yeah, I think it's time we put a woman in the White House
Girls, how about you?
Halfway There lyrics - Sheryl Crow
You pull up in your Hummer and you park next to my Volt
Wearing Armani 3 piece, I wear Levi's full of holes
I might walk along the left side, and you walk along the right
We're both trying to reach the same place; we might not get there on time
But you know what's best
And I know what's best
Let's just agree to disagree
And we all know the rest, yeah
Baby, if you dare
If you really care
Baby, if you dare
Won't you meet me halfway there?
Baby, if you dare
If you really care
Baby, if you dare
Won't you meet me halfway there?
Yeah
Each and every Sunday morning, you sit in your church pew
I'm sitting on a mountain taking in this glorious view
Well, I know your God is listening, and I know mine must be too
And if God is love and love is God, then why do we argue?
I don't know why
But I wanna try
Well, we can listen to each other
Before we criticize, yeah
Baby, if you dare
If you really care
Baby, if you dare
Won't you meet me halfway there?
Baby, if you dare
If you really care
Baby, if you dare
Won't you meet me halfway there?
Whoo!
Could you meet me down the river, hash it out over a beer?
Could you smoke from the same peace pipe til our anger disappears?
You want respect (respect)
You just want love (love)
I want that too, for you, and for me, and everyone
But you know what's best
And I know what's best
Let's just agree to disagree
And give this thing a rest
Baby, if you dare
If you really care
Baby, if you dare
Won't you meet me halfway there?
Baby, if you dare
If you really care
Baby, if you dare
Won't you meet me halfway there?
Baby, if you dare
If you really care
Baby, if you dare
Won't you meet me halfway there?
Baby, if you dare
If you really care
Baby, if you dare
Won't you meet me halfway there?
Uh-huh-huh
Meet in the middle
Where the grass is green
Wearing Armani 3 piece, I wear Levi's full of holes
I might walk along the left side, and you walk along the right
We're both trying to reach the same place; we might not get there on time
But you know what's best
And I know what's best
Let's just agree to disagree
And we all know the rest, yeah
Baby, if you dare
If you really care
Baby, if you dare
Won't you meet me halfway there?

Long Way Back lyrics - Sheryl Crow
I got an up close glimpse of the outside world
It's an awful big place, well that's for damn sure
Seen more of this life than most have seen
And it's taken a mighty be toll on me
Ah it'd sure feel good to be free
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Sometimes you gotta face that light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
It's gonna take the long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
Back home
Did you ever see a man have a heart attack
It'll open your eyes and stop you in your tracks
So I threw away my last cigarette
Get it right this time, I'll clean up my act
That's a hard cold fact
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Some days you gotta face that light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
I'm gonna take the long way back home
I'm gonna take the long way back home
Oh back home
So many things I ain't done yet
So many things I've done that I'd forget
I just need a place to rest my head
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Some days you gotta face that light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
I'm gonna take the long way back home
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Some days you gotta face that light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
I'm gonna take the long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
Back home
It's an awful big place, well that's for damn sure
Seen more of this life than most have seen
And it's taken a mighty be toll on me
Ah it'd sure feel good to be free
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Sometimes you gotta face that light

Shotgun lyrics - Sheryl Crow
You'd beg if I was under your hood
But it ain't doing us any good
Rolling through town and going too slow
What we need is an open road
400 horses need a little room to run
Well if you ain't gonna do it let me show you how it's done
Drive it like it's stolen, park like it's rented
What's the point of money if you ain't gonna spend it?
There's a reason roads go past the city limits
Do you wanna drive? Come on, you can ride shotgun
Shotgun
Traffic jam as I'm sitting by, old man holding that same old sign
Tell me that the end is near but they've been saying that 100 years
But what if he's right, baby?
Maybe this time it's true
And we got nothing to lose
Drive it like it's stolen, park like it's rented
What's the point of money if you ain't gonna spend it?
There's a reason roads go past the city limits
Do you wanna drive? Then baby you can ride shotgun
Shotgun
We gotta drive it like it's stolen, park like it's rented
What good is your money if you ain't gonna spend it?
There's a reason roads go past the city limits
If you ain't gonna drive then baby come on, ride shotgun
Drive it like it's stolen, park like it's rented (Shotgun)
What's the point of money if you ain't gonna spend it?
There's a reason roads go past the city limits
If you ain't gonna drive then baby you can ride shotgun
Shotgun
Shotgun
But it ain't doing us any good
Rolling through town and going too slow
What we need is an open road
400 horses need a little room to run
Well if you ain't gonna do it let me show you how it's done
Drive it like it's stolen, park like it's rented

We gotta drive it like it's stolen, park like it's rented

There's a reason roads go past the city limits

Drive it like it's stolen, park like it's rented (Shotgun)
What's the point of money if you ain't gonna spend it?
There's a reason roads go past the city limits
If you ain't gonna drive then baby you can ride shotgun

Easy lyrics - Sheryl Crow
We said that summer we'd go down to Cancun
But no money makes that kind of hard to do
Forget the beach – I’d rather be here with you
Playing Croquet okay, maybe, that’s not true
But you make it easy, easy, easy to get away
Sit in the sun and drink beer all day
Because it's easy, easy, easier anyway
Hey, who needs Mexico?
Baby, let's stay home
We’ll put on bug spray and we'll lose our clothes
Put out the lawn chairs and turn on the hose
We’ll play Jack Johnson, he’s the new Don Ho
And we’ll go surfing, surfing, we'll surf the radio
'Cause you make it easy, easy, easy to get away
Sit in the sun and drink beer all day
You know it's easy, easy, easier anyway
Hey, who needs Mexico?
Oh, hey, who needs Mexico?
Baby, let's stay home
Drink margaritas and take in the sunset
Later on we'll slip up to our king size bed
And make love, love, sweet love
You make it easy, easy
Oh, yes, it's easy, easy
You make it easy, easy, easy to get away
Sit in the sun and sip tequila all day
Because it's easy, easy, easier anyway
Hey, who needs Mexico?
Tell me now, who needs Mexico?
Baby let's stay home
Baby let's stay home
Let's get away baby
Oh, let's get away, baby
Oh...
Go on a little holiday...
But no money makes that kind of hard to do
Forget the beach – I’d rather be here with you
Playing Croquet okay, maybe, that’s not true
But you make it easy, easy, easy to get away
Sit in the sun and drink beer all day
Because it's easy, easy, easier anyway
Hey, who needs Mexico?
Baby, let's stay home
We’ll put on bug spray and we'll lose our clothes
Put out the lawn chairs and turn on the hose
We’ll play Jack Johnson, he’s the new Don Ho
And we’ll go surfing, surfing, we'll surf the radio
'Cause you make it easy, easy, easy to get away
Sit in the sun and drink beer all day
You know it's easy, easy, easier anyway
Hey, who needs Mexico?
Oh, hey, who needs Mexico?
Baby, let's stay home
Drink margaritas and take in the sunset
Later on we'll slip up to our king size bed
And make love, love, sweet love
You make it easy, easy
Oh, yes, it's easy, easy
You make it easy, easy, easy to get away
Sit in the sun and sip tequila all day
Because it's easy, easy, easier anyway
Hey, who needs Mexico?
Tell me now, who needs Mexico?
Baby let's stay home
Baby let's stay home
Let's get away baby
Oh, let's get away, baby
Oh...
Go on a little holiday...
Give It To Me lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Tell me you don't care
Or tell me you're just scared
But give me something I can hold on to
Just say what's on your mind
Or am I just wasting time?
If you don't want somebody loving you
You've got one foot in and one foot out the door
And baby I can't take it anymore
Just give it to me
Give it to me
Give it to me
All your love
You've got demons in your past
You think real love doesn't last
So pull me close and then push me away
Can't you look me in the eye?
Could you scream or laugh or cry?
But baby if you're leaving say goodbye
But if you can't find the right words anymore
Well then take me up the stairs and close the door
Give it to me
Just give it to me
Give it to me
All your love
Oh baby I'm begging you please
You've got me down on my knees tonight
I know what we have is real
Please remember how it feels to us
You've got one foot in and one foot out the door
And baby I can't take it anymore
Give it to me
Just give it to me
Give it to me
All your love
Give it to me
Give it to me
Give it to me
All your love
Or tell me you're just scared
But give me something I can hold on to
Just say what's on your mind
Or am I just wasting time?
If you don't want somebody loving you
You've got one foot in and one foot out the door
And baby I can't take it anymore
Just give it to me
Give it to me
Give it to me
All your love
You've got demons in your past
You think real love doesn't last
So pull me close and then push me away
Can't you look me in the eye?
Could you scream or laugh or cry?
But baby if you're leaving say goodbye
But if you can't find the right words anymore
Well then take me up the stairs and close the door
Give it to me
Just give it to me
Give it to me
All your love
Oh baby I'm begging you please
You've got me down on my knees tonight
I know what we have is real
Please remember how it feels to us
You've got one foot in and one foot out the door
And baby I can't take it anymore
Give it to me
Just give it to me
Give it to me
All your love
Give it to me
Give it to me
Give it to me
All your love
We Oughta Be Drinkin' lyrics - Sheryl Crow
It’s the middle of the week
I’m just driving home
The sun’s going down and nothing’s going on
They played Whiskey River, I turn it up
And suddenly it hit me how thirsty I was
It’s only Wednesday night, gotta get up early
And tell you the truth, I ain’t that worried
Bout that right now so I think I’m gonna hit downtown and get loud
[Chorus:]
Well it’s one of them nights, feels like we oughta be drinkin'
We gotta get a little rowdy like we’re living in a country song
But some nights are made for staying at home
Sitting on the couch, watching TV alone
But tonight it sure feels like we oughta be drinkin'
I’ll be damned
I’m not the only one here
Looks like the whole damn town’s in the mood for a beer
It ain’t the weekend yet, even 2 for 1 night
‘Cause we’re just drawn to that heavy neon light
I’m glad I hate my job
What’s your excuse?
You got a broken heart or are you just thirsty too?
Could be anything
But whatever the case
I think we’re all planning on getting shit-faced
[Chorus:]
But it’s one of them nights, feels like we oughta be drinkin'
We gotta get a little rowdy like we’re living in a country song
But some nights are made for staying at home
Sitting on the couch and watching TV alone
But tonight it sure feels like we oughta be drinkin'
But some nights are made for staying at home
And roll a big fat bun and watching Nashville alone
But tonight it sure feels like we oughta be drinkin'
Honey tonight it sure feels like we oughta be drinkin'
Yea tonight it sure feels like we oughta be drinkin'
I’m just driving home
The sun’s going down and nothing’s going on
They played Whiskey River, I turn it up
And suddenly it hit me how thirsty I was
It’s only Wednesday night, gotta get up early
And tell you the truth, I ain’t that worried
Bout that right now so I think I’m gonna hit downtown and get loud
[Chorus:]
Well it’s one of them nights, feels like we oughta be drinkin'
We gotta get a little rowdy like we’re living in a country song

Callin' Me When I'm Lonely lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Friday night and it's snowing outside
I'm all alone here watching it fall
TV's on but the sounds turned down
Somehow I knew he'd know to call right now
I oughta just let it ring
'Cause every time it's the same damn thing
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
It's so wrong to be leading me on and I can't say no
He swears that it's gonna be different this time but it won't be
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
He left a message saying he was only fifteen minutes away
And that's just enough time for me to figure out if I should stay or leave
But if I think it through
I ain't got nothing better than you
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
It's so wrong to be leading me on and I can't say no
He swears that it's gonna be different this time but it won't be
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
He's at the front door now
With his magic smile
And he'll be gone tomorrow
But right now he's mine for a little while
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
It's so wrong to be leading me on and I can't say no
Well he swears that its gonna be different this time but it won't be
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
Why is he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
I'm all alone here watching it fall
TV's on but the sounds turned down
Somehow I knew he'd know to call right now
I oughta just let it ring
'Cause every time it's the same damn thing
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
It's so wrong to be leading me on and I can't say no
He swears that it's gonna be different this time but it won't be
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
He left a message saying he was only fifteen minutes away
And that's just enough time for me to figure out if I should stay or leave
But if I think it through
I ain't got nothing better than you
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
It's so wrong to be leading me on and I can't say no
He swears that it's gonna be different this time but it won't be
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
He's at the front door now
With his magic smile
And he'll be gone tomorrow
But right now he's mine for a little while
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
It's so wrong to be leading me on and I can't say no
Well he swears that its gonna be different this time but it won't be
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
Why is he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
Waterproof Mascara lyrics - Sheryl Crow
So he wants to know
Does Superman really need to wear his cape to fly?
Where does rain come from?
And can I play outside?
All my friends have daddys, momma why don't I?
And so I wear waterproof mascara
There's things you shouldn't see when you're a kid
Thank God they make waterproof mascara
'Cuz it won't run like his daddy did
So I'm dating again
Letting my guard down is just so hard to do
Never introduced my son to someone new
'Cuz if I get my heart broke
Honey he will too
And so I wear waterproof mascara
There's things you shouldn't see when you're a kid
Thank God they make waterproof mascara
'Cuz it won't run like his daddy did
I can throw the ball out in the yard
Teach him how to fish
How to drive a car
But in my heart, it just wont be enough
We've always gotten by somehow
I may not need a man right now
But I know he does
Thank God they make waterproof mascara
'Cuz it wont run like his daddy did
That's why I wear waterproof mascara
Does Superman really need to wear his cape to fly?
Where does rain come from?
And can I play outside?
All my friends have daddys, momma why don't I?
And so I wear waterproof mascara
There's things you shouldn't see when you're a kid
Thank God they make waterproof mascara
'Cuz it won't run like his daddy did
So I'm dating again
Letting my guard down is just so hard to do
Never introduced my son to someone new
'Cuz if I get my heart broke
Honey he will too
And so I wear waterproof mascara
There's things you shouldn't see when you're a kid
Thank God they make waterproof mascara
'Cuz it won't run like his daddy did
I can throw the ball out in the yard
Teach him how to fish
How to drive a car
But in my heart, it just wont be enough
We've always gotten by somehow
I may not need a man right now
But I know he does
Thank God they make waterproof mascara
'Cuz it wont run like his daddy did
That's why I wear waterproof mascara
Crazy Ain't Original lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Crazy ain't original these days
The world was going half-crazy anyway
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more
Checking in and out and in and out of rehab
It ain't quite the shame it used to be
Well you're dressed to be the star 'cause one bad
Mug shot makes you much more interesting
Crazy ain't original these days
The world was going half-crazy anyway
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more
Well those neighbors we all tried to stay away from
Twelve kids were not enough, they had thirteen
And what everybody used to call a freak show
Well now we call reality TV
Crazy ain't original these days
The world was going half-crazy anyway
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more
Yea all these bankers down on Wall street riding Harleys
Wicked lawyers breaking all the rules
All those grammers with their cosmetic surgeons
Do their best to look like they're still in high-school
Crazy ain't original these days
The world was going half-crazy anyway
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more
The world was going half-crazy anyway
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more
Checking in and out and in and out of rehab
It ain't quite the shame it used to be
Well you're dressed to be the star 'cause one bad
Mug shot makes you much more interesting
Crazy ain't original these days
The world was going half-crazy anyway
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before

And what everybody used to call a freak show

Nobody's Business lyrics - Sheryl Crow
It's getting late again tonight
And maybe you should just spend the night
But it ain't wrong as long as we think it's alright
But you don't have to park a block away
Or sneak out before the break of day
But if the neighbors see you who cares anyway?
It's nobody's business what we do
Let em all talk if they want to
It's nobody's business if I love you
Oh and I love you
Like nobody's business
Gossip makes the world go round
Especially in this stupid town
Somebody's probably driving by talking trash right now
It's nobody's business what we do
Let em all talk if they want to
It's nobody's business if I love you
Oooooooooooh
Oooooooooooh
Yea I'm gonna love you
Like nobody's business
It's nobody's business what we do
Let em all talk if they want to
It's nobody's business if I love you
Oh and baby I do
Oooooooooooh
Oh and I'm gonna love you baby
Like nobody's business
Let em talk, let em talk
Oh yea
Let em all talk yea
As long as they don't know it's us
And maybe you should just spend the night
But it ain't wrong as long as we think it's alright
But you don't have to park a block away
Or sneak out before the break of day
But if the neighbors see you who cares anyway?
It's nobody's business what we do
Let em all talk if they want to
It's nobody's business if I love you
Oh and I love you

It's nobody's business what we do
Let em all talk if they want to
It's nobody's business if I love you
Oh and baby I do
Oooooooooooh
Oh and I'm gonna love you baby
Like nobody's business
Let em talk, let em talk
Oh yea
Let em all talk yea
As long as they don't know it's us
Homesick lyrics - Sheryl Crow
I've gotten used to being gone
Silhouettes and unmade beds
And more and more when I'm alone
I think of you
I'm getting tired of going nowhere
But it's all I ever do
But I can turn this thing around
Guess I don't want to
I turn the key, open up the door
I sit my suitcase down on the hardwood floor
And I call your name, and I climb the stairs
Then I realize that you're not there
And I get homesick
I get homesick
I get homesick
For anywhere but home
I think I used to have the answers
Oh but now I just don't know
Well that question still hangs on
Why did I let you go?
Why did I let you go?
I turn the key, open up the door
I sit my suitcase down on the hardwood floor
And I call your name, and I climb the stairs
Then I realize that you're not there
And I get homesick
I get homesick
I get homesick
For anywhere but home
I keep wishing I'll lose my mind time and time again
There's a picture of it in my head
Of me and you up there
I get homesick
I get homesick
I get homesick
For anywhere but home
Anywhere but home
I get homesick
I get homesick (Oh yes I do)
I get homesick
For anywhere but...
Anywhere but home
Oh but anywhere but home
'Cause I miss you
Silhouettes and unmade beds
And more and more when I'm alone
I think of you
I'm getting tired of going nowhere
But it's all I ever do
But I can turn this thing around
Guess I don't want to
I turn the key, open up the door
I sit my suitcase down on the hardwood floor
And I call your name, and I climb the stairs
Then I realize that you're not there
And I get homesick
I get homesick
I get homesick
For anywhere but home
I think I used to have the answers
Oh but now I just don't know
Well that question still hangs on
Why did I let you go?
Why did I let you go?
I turn the key, open up the door
I sit my suitcase down on the hardwood floor
And I call your name, and I climb the stairs
Then I realize that you're not there
And I get homesick
I get homesick
I get homesick
For anywhere but home
I keep wishing I'll lose my mind time and time again
There's a picture of it in my head
Of me and you up there
I get homesick
I get homesick
I get homesick
For anywhere but home
Anywhere but home
I get homesick
I get homesick (Oh yes I do)
I get homesick
For anywhere but...
Anywhere but home
Oh but anywhere but home
'Cause I miss you
Homecoming Queen lyrics - Sheryl Crow
28, shouldn't look this old
But the last ten years sure took their toll
On the girl in the picture with the plastic crown
That sea queen dress wouldn't fit her now
Like it did
Before the kids
Yea she loves her husband 'cause she said she would
Oh it ain't so good but it ain't so good
She swore she wouldn't get stuck in this town
Now she's cutting coupons two doors down
From a mall
And it goes on
Yea too bad love ain't a local parade
In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
When you're 17
You don't know
That you won't always be
Homecoming queen
Newspaper clipping and a stash in a box
Are the only things that didn't get lost
She married a guy on the real estate sign
And it's hard to believe once upon a time
She was royalty
The girl we all wanted to be
Yea too bad love ain't a local parade
In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
When you're 17
You don't know
That you won't always be
Homecoming queen
Or the captain of the team
And it ain't' what it seems
It's just a teenage dream
Too bad love ain't a local parade
In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
When you're 17
You don't know
You won't always be
You don't know
You won't always be
Homecoming queen
But the last ten years sure took their toll
On the girl in the picture with the plastic crown
That sea queen dress wouldn't fit her now
Like it did
Before the kids
Yea she loves her husband 'cause she said she would
Oh it ain't so good but it ain't so good
She swore she wouldn't get stuck in this town
Now she's cutting coupons two doors down
From a mall
And it goes on
Yea too bad love ain't a local parade
In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
When you're 17
You don't know
That you won't always be
Homecoming queen
Newspaper clipping and a stash in a box
Are the only things that didn't get lost
She married a guy on the real estate sign
And it's hard to believe once upon a time
She was royalty
The girl we all wanted to be
Yea too bad love ain't a local parade
In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
When you're 17
You don't know
That you won't always be
Homecoming queen
Or the captain of the team
And it ain't' what it seems
It's just a teenage dream
Too bad love ain't a local parade
In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
When you're 17
You don't know
You won't always be
You don't know
You won't always be

Best Of Times lyrics - Sheryl Crow
I've got a class two Continental
Made in 1965
But with a "save the planet" sticker
That makes it kind of hard o drive
I got a big house full of pebbles
And I'm a big fan of both kinds
I never want to keep the doctor away
I wanted to show my sweet young mind
It's the best of times
It's the worst of times
Might not change the world
But I'll change it in mine
Chanel my teens fears
Our best days are behind
Like mine
Like mine
And my toys are made in China
My guitar's in Mexico
My foams and food comes from Japan
Give me a dog from Chicago
I need to take myself to Yellowstone
Climb up to that blue ridge too
Remind myself of what's beautiful
About the big muddy whatever
It's the best of times
It's the worst of times
Might not change the world
But I'll change it in mine
Chanel my teens fears
Our best days are behind
Like mine
Like mine
When I woke up this morning
I got down on my knees to pray
'Cause my end time is done running out
But my calendar's full of days
It's the best of times
It's the worst of times
Might not change the world
But I'll change it in mine
Making music parts
Our best days are behind
Like mine
Like mine
Like mine
Like mine
Like mine
Made in 1965
But with a "save the planet" sticker
That makes it kind of hard o drive
I got a big house full of pebbles
And I'm a big fan of both kinds
I never want to keep the doctor away
I wanted to show my sweet young mind
It's the best of times
It's the worst of times
Might not change the world
But I'll change it in mine
Chanel my teens fears
Our best days are behind
Like mine
Like mine
And my toys are made in China
My guitar's in Mexico
My foams and food comes from Japan
Give me a dog from Chicago
I need to take myself to Yellowstone
Climb up to that blue ridge too
Remind myself of what's beautiful
About the big muddy whatever
It's the best of times
It's the worst of times
Might not change the world
But I'll change it in mine
Chanel my teens fears
Our best days are behind
Like mine
Like mine
When I woke up this morning
I got down on my knees to pray
'Cause my end time is done running out
But my calendar's full of days
It's the best of times
It's the worst of times
Might not change the world
But I'll change it in mine
Making music parts
Our best days are behind
Like mine
Like mine
Like mine
Like mine
Like mine
Stay At Home Mother lyrics - Sheryl Crow
Riding in the backseat, sipping on a Pepsi
Looking out the window, driving to the bus stop together
I tell her only three sleeps and I'll be right back
And then we're gonna have a good time when I come together
And I call her every single night
I'll miss her every day
And if she kissed me and waved goodbye
I could hear her say
Stay at home, mother
Stay at home
Stay at home, mother
Stay at home
I've been working late nights making up for the times
That I wasn't in the crowd cheering out loud at our school plays
Tickets to a circus, maybe a new bike
I just want her to know that I love her more than working all day
But the price will never measure up
To what's inside a box
While I run along around the world
She tells me to stop
And stay at home, mother
Stay at home
Stay at home, mother
Stay at home
We could play house and pretend
That tomorrow you won't be gone
Stay at home, mother
Stay at home
I wish some things were different
Doesn't change one memory
My little girl grew up
While I was too busy to see
That she's become the one thing
That I could never be
Stay at home, mother
Stay at home
Stay at home, mother
Stay at home
She could have a house and couple kids
And never have to be involved
As a stay at home mother
Stay at home mother
Stay at home...
