"A Quiet Place" lyrics
Nick Lowe & Los Straitjackets Lyrics
"A Quiet Place"
(originally by Garnet Mimms & The Enchanters)
Lady, lady, lady, why do you holler?
Nobody's seen your Johnny Dollar
I can't get no sleep in this noisy street
I've got to move
I've got to find a quiet place
There's a man next door with a radio
And he plays it all through the night
There's a couple in the apartment above my head
They do nothing but fuss and fight
I can't get no sleep in this noisy street
I've got to move (I've got to move)
I've got to find some quiet
I can't get no sleep in this noisy street
I've got to move (I've got to move)
I've got to find a quiet place
Find a quiet place
But tell me, where do you go when you got no dough?
There must be a way outta here
I've got to find some peace of mind
There must be a place that I can find
Lady, lady, lady, why do you holler?
Nobody's seen your Johnny Dollar
There's a cat that gets under my window
And meows all the time
There's a drunk that wakes me in the middle of the night
Singing "Sweet Caroline"
I can't get no sleep in this noisy street
I've got to move (I've got to move)
I've got to find some quiet
I can't get no sleep in this noisy street
I've got to move (I've got to move)
I've got to find a quiet place
Find a quiet place
Find a quiet place
Find a quiet place
I can't get no sleep
In this noisy street
I've got to move

The Cactus Blossoms - "Is It Any Wonder" You're like a mountain I can't get over
And when I'm with you time goes slower
You're like a river, you pull me under
Deeper and deeper, is it any wonder
I've been searching for a while
I wanna know...
The Mystery Lights - "Together Lost" Give to me your bitter heart
I promise to only help it grow
For I won't change
If you don't change
The way you want me to
I'll watch your back
So you say
But with the deepest cut betray
For you...
BabyJake - "We, You, And I" Beau Rivage, perfume and pills
You dress your part to get your fill
Warm regards, cocktails cold
Hot at the table losing all control
You don't want to be nice
You work hard, so go on living life
And...
Kirsty MacColl - "Walking Down Madison" Walking down Madison, I swear I never had a gun
No, I never shot no one, I was only having fun
Walking down Madison, swear I never had a gun
I was philosophizing some, checking out the bums
See you...
