Metallica - Turn The Page

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOibtqWo6z4



on a long and lonesome highway
east of Omaha
you can listen to the engine
moanin' out his one note song
you can think about the woman
or the girl you knew the night before
but your thoughts will soon be wandering
the way they always do
when you're ridin' sixteen hours
and there's nothin' much to do
and you don't feel much like ridin',
you just wish the trip was through

here i am
on the road again
there i am
up on the stage
here i go
playin' the star again
there i go
turn the page

well you walk into a restaurant,
strung out from the road
and you feel the eyes upon you
as you're shakin' off the cold
you pretend it doesn't bother you
but you just want to explode
most times you can't hear 'em talk,
other times you can
all the same old cliches,
"is that a woman or a man?"
and you always seem outnumbered,
you don't dare make a stand

here i am
on the road again
there i am
up on the stage
here i go
playin' the star again
there i go
turn the page

out there in the spotlight
you're a million miles away
every ounce of energy
you try to give away
as the sweat pours out your body
like the music that you play

later in the evening
as you lie awake in bed
with the echoes from the amplifiers
ringin' in your head
you smoke the day's last cigarette,
rememberin' what she said

here i am
on the road again
there i am
up on the stage
here i go
playin' the star again
there i go
turn the page
there i go
turn that page
there i go
there i go

Bad Company - Shooting Star

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YEmC6cTXKY



johnny was a school boy when he heard his first beatles song
love me do, i think it was and from there it didn't take him long
got himself a guitar, used to play it every night
now he's in a rock & roll outfit, and everything's all right

don't you know?

johnny told his momma, hey momma i'm goin' away
i'm gonna hit the big time, gonna be a big star someday
momma came to the door with a tear drop in her eye
johnny said, don't cry momma smile & wave goodbye

don't you know
don't you know that you are a shooting star
don't you know
don't you know that you are a shooting star
and all the world will love you just as long
as long as you are

johnny made a record, went straight up to number one
suddenly everyone loved to hear him sing the song
watching the world go by, surprisin' it goes so fast
johnny looked around him and said, hey, i made the big time at last

don't you know
don't you know that you are a shooting star
don't you know
don't you know that you are a shooting star
and all the world will love you just as long
as long as you are

don't you know that you are a shooting star
shinin' on, way up there beyond the clouds
don't you know that you are a shooting star
and all the world will love you just as long
as long as you are . . .

johnny died one night, died in his bed
bottle of whiskey, sleepin' tablets by his head
johnny's life passed him by like a warm summer day
if you listen to the wind, you can still hear him play . . .

don't you know that you are a shooting star
don't you know, don't you know
don't you know that you are a shooting star
don't you know . . .
don't you know that you are a shooting star
shinin' on down forever . . .
don't you know that you are a shooting star
and all the world will love you just as long
as long as you are . . .
