Blues PowerVer letra

letra de Blues Power
Bet you didn't think I knew how to rock 'n' roll.
Oh, I got the boogie-woogie right down in my very soul.
There ain't no need for me to be a wallflower,
'Cause now I'm living on blues power.

I knew all the time but now I'm gonna let you know:
I'm gonna keep on rocking, no matter if it's fast or slow.
Ain't gonna stop until the twenty-fifth hour,
'Cause now I'm living on blues power.

Repeat First Verse

Talking to you, now.
The boogie's gonna pull me through.
Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on.
Keep on keeping on, keep on keeping on.

letra de After Midnight
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
After midnight, we're gonna chug-a-lug and shout
We're gonna stimulate some action
We're gonna get some satisfaction
We're gonna find out what it is all about

After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
After midnight, we're gonna shake your tambourine
After midnight, it's all gonna be peaches and cream
We're gonna cause talk and suspicion
We're gonna give an exhibition
We're gonna find out what it is all about
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out

After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out

Second Verse

After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
Let It RainVer letra

letra de Let It Rain
The rain is falling through the mist
Of sorrow that surrounded me.
The sun could never thaw away
The the bliss that lays around me.

Let it rain, let it rain,
Let your love rain down on me.
Let it rain, let it rain,
Let it rain, rain, rain.

Her life was like a desert flower
Burning in the sun.
Until I found the way to love,
It's harder said than done.

Chorus

Now I know the secret;
There is nothing that I lack.
If I give my love to you,
You'll surely give it back.

Chorus

letra de Bell Bottom Blues
Bell bottom blues, you made me cry
I don't wanna lose this feeling
And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in your arms

Do you wanna see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you wanna hear me beg you to take me back?
I would gladly do it because
I don't wanna fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't wanna fade away
In your heart I want to stay

It's all wrong, but it's all right
The way that you treat me baby
Once I was strong but I lost the fight
You won't find a better loser

Do you wanna see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you wanna hear me beg you to take me back?
I would gladly do it because
I don't wanna fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't wanna fade away
In your heart I want to stay

Do you wanna see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you wanna hear me beg you to take me back?
I would gladly do it because
I don't wanna fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't wanna fade away
In your heart I want to stay

Bell bottom blues, don't say goodbye
I'm sure we're gonna meet again
And if we do, don't you be surprised
If you find me with another lover

Do you wanna see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you wanna hear me beg you to take me back?
I would gladly do it because
I don't wanna fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't wanna fade away
In your heart I want to stay

I don't wanna fade away
Give me one more day please
I don't wanna fade away
In your heart I long to stay
LaylaVer letra

letra de Layla
What will you do when you get lonely
And no one's waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride

Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

Tried to give you consolation
When your old man, he let you down
Like a fool, I fell in love with you
You turned my whole world upside down

Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

Make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane
Please don't say we'll never find a way
Or tell me all my love's in vain

Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
I Shot The SheriffVer letra

[X]
letra de I Shot The Sheriff
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot the deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot the deputy

All around my home town
They're trying to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of the deputy
For the life of a deputy

I said

I shot the sheriff
But I swear it was in self defense
I shot the sheriff
And they say it was a capital offense

Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what? I don't know
But every time that I plant a seed
He said, "kill it before it grows" (2x)

I said

(2x)
I shot the sheriff
But I swear it was in self defense

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town
All of a sudden I see Sheriff John Brown
Aimin' to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot him down

I said

(2x)
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot the deputy

Reflexes got the better of me
And what is to be must be
Every day the bucket falls to the well
One day the bottom will drop out
Yes, one day the bottom will drop out

I said

I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot the deputy
Oh, no, oh, no
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
Oh, no
Let It GrowVer letra

letra de Let It Grow
Standing at the crossroads, trying to read the signs
To tell me which way I should go to find the answer
And all the time I know
Plant your love and let it grow

Let it grow, let it grow
Let it blossom, let it flow
In the sun, the rain, the snow
Love is lovely, let it grow

Looking for a reason to check out of my mind
Trying hard to get a friend that I can count on
But there's nothing left to show
Plant your love and let it grow

Let it grow, let it grow
Let it blossom, let it flow
In the sun, the rain, the snow
Love is lovely, let it grow

Time is getting shorter and there's much for you to do
Only ask and you will get what you are needing
The rest is up to you
Plant your love and let it grow

Let it grow, let it grow
Let it blossom, let it flow
In the sun, the rain, the snow
Love is lovely, let it grow

Let it grow, let it grow
Let it blossom, let it flow
In the sun, the rain, the snow
Love is lovely, let it grow
Knockin' On Heaven's Door
Hello Old FriendVer letra

letra de Hello Old Friend
As I am strolling down the garden path,
I saw a flower glowing in the dark.
It looked so pretty and it was unique;
I had to bend down just to have a peek.

Hello old friend,
It's really good to see you once again.
Hello old friend,
It's really good to see you once again.

I saw you walking underneath the stars;
I couldn't stop 'cause I was in a car.
I'm sure the distance wouldn't be too far
If I got out and walked to where you are.

Chorus

An old man passed me on the street today;
I thought I knew him but I couldn't say.
I stopped to think if I could place his frame.
When he tipped his hat I knew his name.

letra de Cocaine
If you wanna hang out you've got to take her out
Cocaine
If you wanna get down, down on the ground
Cocaine

She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie
Cocaine

If you got bad news, you wanna kick them blues
Cocaine
When your day is done and you wanna run
Cocaine

She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie
Cocaine

If your thing is gone, and you wanna ride on
Cocaine
Don't forget this fact, you can't get it back
Cocaine

She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie
Cocaine

She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie

Wonderful TonightVer letra

letra de Wonderful Tonight
It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She'll put on her make-up
And brushes her long blond hair

And then she'll ask me: Do I look alright?
And I'll say: Yes, you look wonderful tonight

We'll go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me

And then she'll ask me: Do you feel alright?
And I'll say: Yes, I feel wonderful tonight

I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much I love you

It's time to go home now
I've got an aching head
So I'll give her the car keys
She'll help me to bed

And then I'll tell her
As I turn out the light
I say: My darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh, my darling, you were wonderful tonight

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
PromisesVer letra

[X]
letra de Promises
I don't care if you never come home
I don't mind if you just keep on rowin' away on a distant sea
'Cause I don't love you and you don't love me

You cause a commotion when you come to town
You give 'em a smile and they melt
Having lovers and friends is all good and fine
But I don't like yours and you don't like mine

La la, la la la la
La la, la la la la

I don't care what you do at night
Oh, and I don't care how you get your delights
I'm gonna leave you alone
I'll just let it be
I don't love you and you don't love me

I got a problem
Can you relate?
I got a woman callin' love hate
We made a vow we'd always be friends
How could we know that promises end?

La la, la la la la
La la, la la la la

I tried to love you for years upon years
You refuse to take me for real
It's time you saw what I want you to see
And I'd still love you if you just loved me

I got a problem
Can you relate?
I got a woman callin' love hate
We made a vow we'd always be friends
How could we know that promises end?

La la, la la la la
La la, la la la la
La la, la la la la
La la, la la la la
I Can't Stand It
