Dolly Parton - Livin a lie

Tekst :

Spotlight s on, it s shining bright
And I like standin in it
It s only superficial light
But I don t want to end it
It s warmth and glow has taken hold
And I m caught uup in it s shine
A Cinderella fairy tale
I want to claim as mine
Fancy clothes, a magic coach
And happy ever after
Like something from a story book
The Cinderella chapter
But when the clock strikes midnight
And I lie awake in bed
Things my Daddy told me
Keep running through my head

You gotta walk the straight and narrow
And to thine own self be true
Gotta aim straight as an arrow
All eyes are up on you
But sometimes it feels so good
That I can almost justify
Livin a lie -- livin a lie
Livin a lie -- livin a lie

Is it wrong for me to want
The sweeter grass that s greener?
To chase the all-American dream
I ve always been a dreamer
At the top and still I ve got
A heavy heart inside
I keep remembering
Things my Daddy told me as a child

You gotta walk the striaght and narrow
Gotta hold fast to the right
Gotta aim straight as an arrow
Walk onward toward the light
Oh, but when I m out there in it
I think I might get by
Livin a lie -- livin a lie
But I don t feel right livin a lie
Livin a lie -- livin a lie

All the fame and fortune
Glory and prestige
Can t make me happy if it goes
Against what I believe
And I ve sacrificed my honor
My values and my pride
Livin a lie -- livin a lie
Livin a lie -- livin a lie
Livin a lie -- livin a lie
Livin a lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, I don t feel right

    The way that i found you

    up on the stand, the society meeting
    that was the way, was the way that I found you
    drunk after work, here in the late night feelings
    that was the way, was the way that I found you
    sat in the crowd, watching the women s tennis
    that was the way, was the way that...

    This time of night

    We all feel the same
    All pleasure nothing to gain
    I ve known you from the start
    I ve grown used to your wooden heart
    Now you know my name
    You search your empty brain in vain
    If you don t change your ways...

    Kapitańskie tango

    Wszystkie morza, oceany, opływają wszerz i wzdłuż
    Porty świata ich witają, twardych ludzi słonych wód
    Ech, fantazjo marynarska, co w zadymce mew
    W słonej mgle i pełnym szkwale bierzesz morski chrzest

    Ref.
    Kapitańskie tango, z torsem w paski, miną hardą
    Z fajką w zębach, długą brodą, przesiąknięte morską wodą

    Playgirl

    Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow’s world?
    Hey, playgirl
    Playgirl, why are you dancing when you could be alone?
    Hey, playgirl
    Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow’s world?
    Hey, playgirl
    Playgirl, choking on cigarettes won t get you along
    Hey, playgirl

    Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
    Northern lights catch you coming down
    Sleep your way out of your hometown

    Playgirl,...

    Firefly

    My memory will not fail me now

    Mmm firefly in the night sky
    Only lights on the rise
    And I need you so firefly

    One satellite with a lazy eye
    Caught me by surprise
    With an ache in my belly
    And a taste in my mouth for fire

    My memory will not fail me now

    Mmm firefly in the...
