"Lonely Town, Lonely Street" lyrics
"Lonely Town, Lonely Street"
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, friendly people that you meet
You might be a sweet young, sweet young pretty, pretty
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
Don't impress the people that you meet
You might as well be a lonely walker
In a lonely town, on a lonely street

Everywhere you go
Some folks like it fast

And some like it new
Now I'm not knockin' country
And I'm...
Randy Crawford - "Rainy Night In Georgia" Hoverin' by my suitcase
Trying to find a warm place
To spend the night
Heavy rains are falling
Seems I hear your voice calling
Alright
A rainy night in Georgia
A rainy night in Georgia

Gino Vannelli - "Brother To Brother" Brother to brother
Now we must join our hearts and hands
Yeah, if we love one another
We hold the key to the promised land
Think of all that we've been through
The shucks and jives and royal blues...
The Brand New Heavies - "You Are The Universe" You're the future, and you've come for what is yours
The hidden treasure, locked behind the hidden doors
And the promise of a day that's shiny new
Only a dreamer, could afford this point of view
But...
