Aerosmith Chronicles Lyrics
1.Heart's Done Time

Met a woman, she had a man
Couldn't help it, I had a plan
Right around midnight he was gone
Saw her red light, she left it on

And oh my heart's done time
And oh, now she's mine

If there's a reason for these chains
It's like we suffer to ease the pain
Now I got this feelin' inside of me
My heart's in jail and I can't break free

And oh my heart's done time
And oh now she's mine
Now she's mine
Now she's mine
Now she's mine
Now she's mine

And oh my heart's done time
And oh now she's mine
Now she's mine
Now she's mine
Now she's mine


2.Magic Touch

Somebody better call a doctor, doctor
Or wake me up with a shove
I'm gonna knock you off your rocker, rocker
'Cause I think I'm in love
I tried to get a message to ya
But you walked the other way

I need your Magic Touch, don't you know
I've got a habit and I can't let go
Feel the fire burnin' slow
You better get it while it's hot now babe
'Cause I can't let go

Don't need no wedding with a shotgun, shotgun
So don't you push me too far
Don't try to take me for a fool child, who child
Do you think that you are
You really got it coming to ya
It's gonna come as no surprise

I need your Magic Touch, don't you know
I'm after you and now I can't let go
Take it easy, take it slow
You better get it while it's hot now babe
'Cause I can't let go

You never know what you got
Till they take it away
I'm comin' ready or not
Gonna get you some day

I need your Magic Touch, don't you know
I'm after you and now I can't let go
Feel the fire, burnin' slow
I got a habit and I'm back for more
Ypur Magic Touch, don't you know
I'm after you and now I can't let go
Feel the fire, burnin' slow
You better get it while it's hot now babe
'Cause I can't, can't, can't let you go


3.Rag Doll

(Chorus)
Rag Doll, livin' in a movie
Hot tramp, Daddy's little cutie
So fine, they'll never see ya
Leavin' by the back door, man
Hot time, get it while it's easy
Don't mind, come on up and see me
Rag Doll, baby won't you do me
Like you done before

I'm feelin' like a bad boy
Mmm, just like a bad boy
I'm rippin' up a Rag Doll
Like throwing away an old toy
Some babe's talkin' real loud
Talkin' all about the new crowd
Try and sell me on an old dream
A new version of the old scene
Speak easy on the grape vine
Keep shufflin' the shoe shine
Old tin Lizzy, do it till you're dizzy
Give it all ya got until you're put out of your misery

(Chorus)
Rag Doll, livin' in a movie
Hot tramp, Daddy's little cutie
So fine, they'll never see ya
Leavin' by the back door, man
Hot time, get it while it's easy
Don't mind, come on up and see me
Rag Doll, baby won't you do me
Like you done before

Yes, I'm movin', Yes I'm movin'
Get ready for the big time
Tap dancing on a land mine
Yes I'm movin', Yes I'm movin'
Old tin Lizzy, do it till you're dizzy
Give it all ya got until you're put out of your misery

(Chorus)
Rag Doll, livin' in a movie
Hot tramp, Daddy's little cutie
So fine, they'll never see ya
Leavin' by the back door, man
Hot time, get it while it's easy
Don't mind, come on up and see me
Rag Doll, baby won't you do me, baby won't you do me, baby won't
you do me...
Like you done before (huh huh)

Yes, I'm movin', Yes I'm movin'
Get ready for the big time
I get crazy on the moonshine
Yes, I'm movin', I'm really movin'

Sloe gin fizzy
Do it till you're dizzy
Give it all you got until you're put out of your misery

(Repeat Chorus)
Rag Doll, livin' in a movie
Hot tramp, Daddy's little cutie
So fine, they'll never see ya
Leavin' by the back door, man
Hot time, get it while it's easy
Don't mind, come on up and see me
Rag Doll, baby won't you do me
Like you done before

Rag Doll, livin' in a movie
Hot tramp, Daddy's little cutie
So fine, they'll never see ya
Leavin' by the back door, man
Hot time, get it while it's easy
Don't mind, come on up and see me
Rag Doll, baby won't you do me
Like you done before


4.Simoriah

Walkin' the line of a razors edge
Take it as far as it goes
Slice of the sky on a silver wedge
Higher and higher we go - let's go

Ladies in black put a spell on me
Feels like my head's goin'
Round & round & round & upside down
Ladies in white ain't my cup of tea
So be it, I need it, long legs, big eyes
Oh, she drives me crazy

(Chorus)
Ooh, Simoriah
Ooh, Simoriah

Countin' the eyes of the dragonfly
Callin' on dreams from within
She knows the way and she makes me high
So be it, I need it, long hair, blue eyes
Oh, she drives me crazy

(Repeat Chorus)

6.St. John

(Come on boy, the tape is rollin')
(One, two, one two, two two two)

John was bad
He gave it everything he had
John he prayed
For all the people ever made
John was cool
He never did no after school

Late at night when he praised the Lord
He laid his hands down upon the bloody sword

John, St John be cool
Tell the people
They follow you
They follow you

But every night when he praised the Lord
He laid his hands down upon the bloody sword

Lay down upon the sword
Lay down upon the sword
Lay down upon the sword
Lay down your bloody sword

John, St John be cool
Tell the people
They follow you
John, St John be cool
Tell the people
They follow you

Late at night when he praised the Lord
He lay his hands down upon the bloody sword
Laid down upon the sword
Down, down upon the sword
Laid down upon the sword
Gettin' down upon the sword
Laid down upon the sword
Laid it down upon the sword
Laid down upon the sword
Late night TV roared


7.Hangman Jury

Me and my old lady sittin' in the shade
Talkin' 'bout the money that I ain't made
Singin' o boy don'tcha line the track a lack a
O boy don'tcha line the track
O boy don'tcha line the track a lack a
O boy don'tcha line the track

And if I could I surely would
Stand on the rock that Moses stood
Singin' O boy don'tcha line the track a lack a
O boy don'tcha line the track
O boy don'tcha line the track a lack a
O boy don'tcha line the track

Drank so much hooch

They say I nailed her to the wall
A stitch in time don't mean a thing
No Hangman Jury could make me crawl
'Cause I'm a poor boy don'tcha line the track a lack a
O boy don'tcha line the track a lack a
O boy don'tcha line the track

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh ohhh ohhhhhhh

Whatcha do with a gun that's loaded (ooooh)
Shot her dead and her heart exploded (ooooh)
Tell me baby now d-don'tcha worry (oooooh)
Like lyin' to a Hangman Jury (oooooh)

Oooh whoa I swear I didn't know that '45 was loaded
In fact my memory ain't too clear
That's not to say she didn't get what she deserved
Least that's the way it looked from here
Boy when you line the track a lack a
Hey boy when line the track a lack a
Hey boy when line the track

Ooh, when love came tumblin' down, yeah
Ooh, when love come tumblin' down
Ooh, Let's get outta here
When love come a-tumblin'

(ahahaha)
And every night she take her thang into the city
And in the morning make me beg
Cuz if I'd taken all her real titty gritty
I'd smack her right upside the head
Hey Boy don'tcha line the track a lack a
Hey boy don'tcha line the track
Hey boy don'tcha line the track

Ooh, when love came tumblin' down
Ooh, when love comes tumblin' down
Ooh, when love comes tumblin' down

Poor boy sweatin' in the hot summer night
Hangman waitin' for the early mornin' light singin'
Hey boy don'tcha line the track a lack a
Hey boy don'tcha line the track
Hey boy don'tcha line the track a lack a
Hey boy don'tcha line the track

If I could I surely would
Stand on the rock that Moses done stood singin'
Hey boy don'tcha line the track a lack a
Hey boy don'tcha line the track
Hey boy don'tcha line the track a lack a

Lovin' you has got to be
(take me to the other side)
Like the devil and the deep blue sea
(take me to the other side)
My conscience got to be my guide
(take me to the other side)
Oh honey take me to the other side
(take me to the other side)
Lovin' you has got to be
(take me to the other side)
Like the devil and the deep blue sea
(take me to the other side)
Forget about your foolish pride
(take me to the other side)
Honey take me take me take me take me to the other side
(take me to the other side)
(take me to the other side)...


19.My Girl

My Girl, she breathes hellfire
And My Girl, she feeds my desire
My Girl Sadie, she's the wind in my sails
A puss'n boots lady with a cat o' nine tails
Comin' after you honey, feet don't fail me now

My Girl, she's bare back rider
And My Girl, she's Lady Godiva
She's a full time love no mon ami
Sweeter than honey from a honeybee
And it all rubs off on little old me, oh

Slippin' in and out of love
Slippin' in and out of love
Slippin' in and out of love
Slippin' in and out of love

My Girl, she smokes barbed wire
And My Girl, can't get no higher
I made it with the lady and a one track mind
Diamonds in the rought, they're so hard find
Day after day, the same old grind
And grind and grind and grind....

My Girl, My Girl, My Girl, My Girl....

My Girl, she's bare back rider
And My Girl, she's Lady Godiva
She's a full time love no mon ami
Sweeter than honey from a honeybee
And it all rubs off on little old me, oh

Slippin' in and out of love
Slippin' in and out of love
Slippin' in and out of love
Slippin' in and out of love

Oh, My Girl!


20.Don't Get Mad, Get Even

I'll tell you little secret make you want to jump and shout
when you talk to me in circles take your foot out of your mouth
it's hard enough to make it when you're livin' on the street
and you want to tell somebody but you got to be discreet
then you catch your girlfriend with her skirt hiked up to here
honey, don't get mad, get even

don't get mad, get even
don't get mad, get even
don't get mad, get even

say the times they be a-changin' though the blind lead the blind
you know your head is empty though there's somethin' on your
mind
been shackin' up with Lucy, then when the morning comes
you're with Sally in the alley and the junkies and the bums
you wonder why your girlfriend has her skirt hiked up to here
honey, don't get mad, get even

don't get mad, get even
don't get mad, get even
don't get mad, get even

(...'til I can see the white o' your eyes, baby...)
(...I'm gonna kick ass...)
(...just wait 'til you see what I got in store for you)

roll the dice get lucky 'cause they roll you for the dime
you got nothin' else to lose if you only lose your mind
when pleasure that is shallow causes trouble to be deep
you've been dusted with the devil while he sweeps you off your
feet

I'll tell you little secret make you want to jump and shout
when you talk to me in circles take your foot out of your mouth
it's hard enough to make it when you're livin' on the street
and you hate to be a wiseguy when your feet are in concrete
oh, sleepin' with the dogs, and you wake up with the fleas
honey, don't get mad, get even


21.Hoodoo / Voodoo Medicine Man

Silence, I'm ashamed, I was left as a child
Dragged from the cradle, I was weaned in the wild
Ran with the wolf pack, flesh torn to shreds
In the compensations, I was left there for dead
Read it in the paper it ain't fair
You know who today don't seem to care
Livin', lovin', gettin' loose
Masturbatin' with a noose
Now someone's kickin' out the chair
Some kind of voodoo
Come across this land
Some kind of voodoo
Be the medicine man
Everybody's lookin' at the sky
Don't believe the cover-ups and lies
They been tellin' us since birth
Pissin' off old Mother Earth
My gones are bygones prophesied
Some kind of voodoo
Come across this land
Some kind of hoodoo
Be the medicine man
Get ready
Wonder should I go or should I stay
'Cause what we got ain't workin' anyway
I did my best, God knows I tried
I feel like I been crucified
Why did you, why did you, why did you take it all away
Voodoo, hoodoo, medicine man
Voodoo, hoodoo, medicine man
Voodoo, hoodoo, medicine man
Voodoo, hoodoo, medicine man
Voodoo, hoodoo, medicine man
Voodoo, hoodoo, medicine man
Voodoo, hoodoo, medicine man
Voodoo, hoodoo, medicine man
Voodoo, hoodoo, medicine man


22.What It Takes

There goes my old girlfriend, there's another diamond ring
And, uh, all those late night promises I guess they don't mean a
thing

So baby, what's the story? Did you find another man?
Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made?
When you don't look back I guess the feelings start to fade
away.

I used to feel your fire
But now it's cold inside
And you're back on the street like you didn't miss a beat, yeah

Tell me what it takes to let you go
Tell me how the pain's supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was good in your life
to the toss of the dice?
Tell me what it takes to let you go.


Yeah
Girl, before I met you I was F.I.N.E. Fine
but your love made me a prisoner, yeah my heart's been doing
time
You spent me up like money, then you hung me out to dry
It was easy to keep all your lies in disguise
'Cause you had me in deep with the devil in your eyes

Tell me what it takes to let you go
Tell me how the pain's supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was good in your life
to the toss of the dice?
Tell me what it takes to let you go.


Tell me that you're happy that you're on your own Yeah, yeah,
yeah
Tell me that it's better when you're all alone
Tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch
Tell me that my lovin' didn't mean that much
Tell me you ain't dyin' when you're cryin' for me

Tell me what it takes to let you go
Tell me how the pain's supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was good in your life
to the toss of the dice?
Tell me who's to blame for thinkin' twice

No no no no 'cause I don't wanna burn in paradise
Ooo Let go, let go, let go,
let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it
go, let it go, let it go,
let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
I don't wanna burn, I don't wanna burn


23.Intro

Wake up kids
It's half past your youth
Ain't nothin' really changin', but the date

You're a grand slammer
But you're no Babe Ruth
You gotta learn how to relate

Or you'll be swinging from the pearly gates
I got all the answers low and behold
You got the right key baby
But the wrong key hole, yo


24.Eat The Rich

Well I woke up this morning
On the wrong side of the bed
And how I got to thinkin'
About all the things you said
About ordinary people
And how they make you sick
And if callin' names kicks back on you
Then I hope this does the trick

'Cause I'm sick of your complainin'
About how many bills
And I'm sick of all your bitchin'
'Bout your poodles and your pills
And I just can't see no humour
About your way of life
And I think I can do more for you
With this here fork and knife

(Chorus)
Eat The Rich
There's only one thing that they are good for
Eat The Rich
Take one bite now - come back for more
Eat The Rich
I gotta get this off my chest
Eat The Rich
Take one bite now - spit out the rest

So I called up my head shrinker
And I told him what I'd done
He said you best go on a diet
Yeah, I hope you have some fun
And a don't go burst the bubble
On rich folks who get rude
'Cause you won't get in no trouble
When you eats that kinda food

Now they're smokin' up their junk bonds
And then they go get stiff
And they're dancin' in the yacht club
With **** and uncle Biff
But there's one good thing that happens
When you toss your pearls to swine
Their attitudes may taste like ****
But go real good with wine

Chorus

Believe in all the good things
That money just can't buy
Then you won't get no bellyache
From eatin' humble pie
I believe in rags to riches
Your inheritance won't last
So take your Gray poupon my friend
And shove it up your ****

Chorus

Eat The Rich
There's only one thing that they are good for
Eat The Rich
Take one bite now - come back for more
Eat The Rich
Don't stop me now, I'm goin' crazy
Eat The Rich
That's my idea of a good time baby


25.Get A Grip

(Chorus)
Got to Get A Grip
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
If you think I'm vain, better shut ya lip
I can't explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, gotta let it rip

Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're livin' in the city
If ya wanna hang loose, gotta Get A Grip - rip

Once upon a crime I thought I was cool
But I don't want to brag
Once I crossed the line I think I musta
Zigged when I shoulda zagged

Chorus

Same old, same old every day
If things don't change you're just gonna rot
'Cause if you do what you've always done
You've always get what you've always got
(Uuh, could that be nothing)

Chorus

Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're livin' in the city
If ya wanna hang loose, gotta Get A Grip

Who knows for sure without a doubt
What goes on when the lights go out
Or who pulls in when I pull out
And what is a one-eyed trouser trout

I was so shortsighted
Now the wrong been righted
I feel so delighted
I get so excited

Chorus

Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're livin' in the city
If ya wanna hang loose, gotta Get A Grip

Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're livin' in the city
If ya wanna hang loose, gotta Get A Grip

You wanna get high in a New York minute
Choke that smoke, honey crack the whip

You wanna hang loose, gotta Get A Grip

Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're livin' in the city
If ya wanna hang loose, gotta Get A Grip


26.Fever

I got a rip in my pants
And a hole in my brand new shoes
I got a Margarita nose
And a breath full of Mad Dog Booze

(Chorus)
I got the fever, fever, fever, fever

Yeah, they threw me outta jail
I tell ya it ain't fair
I tried to kiss the judge
From the electrica' chair

Yeah we're all here
'Cause we're not all there tonight

The guitar's cranked
And the bass man's blown a fuse
And when the whole gang bangs
Then what is your excuse?

(Chorus)

Fever gives you lust with an appetite
It hits you like the fangs
From a rattlesnake bite

Yeah we're all here
'Cause we're not all there tonight

We can't run away from trouble
There ain't no place that far
But if we do it right at the speed of light
There's the backseat of my car - caviar

I was feelin' so high I forgot what day
Now I'm feeling low down
Even slow feels way to fast
And now the booze don't work
'Cause the drugs ran out of gas

(Chorus)

The buzz that you're gettin'
From the crack don't last
I'd rather be O.D.in' on the crack of her ****

Yeah we're all here
'Cause we're not all there tonight

My first time ever lover
We fell asleep out on the lawn
And when I woke up I was all alone
Making love to the crack of dawn
So yo, I beg yo pardon sir
The gangster of love rides again

You now I gotta chill
It gimme such a thrill
Like a burnin' plague Yeah get outta my way

Fever may be **** and a cross to bear
As long as I'm in heaven, honey I don't care
You look so good baby, look so fine
I tell you you're the image of a perfect crime
You get so tired holdin' on so tight
If you think you're goin' crazy
Well you may be right

Yeah we're all here
'Cause we're not all there that's right


27.Livin' On The Edge

There's something wrong with the world today
I don't know what it is
Something's wrong with our eyes

We're seeing things in a different way
And God knows it ain't His
It sure ain't no surprise
(YA!)

(Chorus)
We're livin' on the edge
We're livin' on the edge
We're livin' on the edge
We're livin' on the edge

There's someting wrong with the world today
The lightbulb's gettin' dimmed
There's meltdown in the sky

If you can judge a wise man
By the color of his skin
Then mister, you're a better man than I

(Chorus)
We're Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at aaaaaaaall!
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from faaaaaaaallin'
Livin' on the edgeTell me what you think about our sit-u-a-tion
Complication - aggravation
Is getting to you

If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin'
Even if it wasn't would you still come crawling
Back again - I bet you would my friend
Again & Again & Again & Again & Again

Tell me what you think about our situation
Complication - aggravation
Is getting to you

If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin'
Even if it was would you still come crawling
Back again - I bet you would my friend
Again & Again & Again & Again

Something right with the world today
And everybody knows it's wrong
But we can tell 'em no
Or we could let it go
But I would rather be a hanging on

(Chorus)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

(Repeat Chorus)


28.Flesh

The day rolls in, the night rolls out
Desire rules without a doubt
The heart beats fast, you salivate
And when you come, it won't be late
I guess by now, you got the score
A little taste you want it more

From San Antone to Marrakesh
Yeah, when the night comes
Everybody's gotta have Flesh
Flesh - the only thing that's worth the sweat
From the day that Eve did Adam
Down to Romeo and Juliet
Everybody gotta have

The prince of lust has met his match
The witch has brewed her baddest batch
His sword is sharp and hard as stone
Her cauldron begs for one more bone
And so my love, this story's told
From modern times to days of old

From Boston, Mass to Bangladesh
Yeah, when the night comes
Everybody's gotta have Flesh
Flesh - It's got me all soaking wet
Rom the Mississippi River
To the highest mountain in Tibet
Everybody gotta have

Flesh - you got me all soakin' wet
Flesh - the only thing that's worth the sweat
Flesh - you got me all soakin' wet
Flesh - the only thing, the only thing, the only thing

From a Sufi in a Rickshaw
To a bimbo in a pink Corvette


29.Walk On Down

You wonder why you got holes in your shoes
You wonder why they got more money than you
You wonder why you got nothin' to lose
It makes no sense, don't try to figure it out

You gotta - Walk On Down
Walk On Down - Walk On Down
When you're **** outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk On Down - Walk On Down - Walk On Down
When you're **** outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Yeah, huh

Well, she says that she loves you
In your mind there's no doubt
You feel like a stranger
When the lights go out
As you lie there awake you think
'This ain't no gift'
Don't try to figure
That weight's to heavy to lift

You gotta - Walk On Down
Walk On Down - Walk On Down
When you're **** outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk On Down - Walk On Down
'Cause I got no time to lose
It's my life if I choose
Put on my walking shoes

Walk On Down - Walk On Down - Walk On Down
When you're **** outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk On Down - Walk On Down - Walk On Down
When you're **** outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk On Down


30.Shut Up And Dance

Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
Don't get deep, shut up and dance
Love has got me down
A tear just hit the ground
So I started writing you this song
But the words I wrote came out all wrong
Yeah, but it's alright

Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
Don't get deep, shut up and dance
When you can't define the crime
Then life ain't worth a dime
When they take away everything you've got
And they rub your nose in the funky spot
Not without a fight

Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
Don't get deep, shut up and dance, yeah
When you work your fingers to the bone
Now what does that get you--nothing
In a crowd of people
You're still alone
You hope that tells you something
The road to heaven is paved in ****
And it makes you wonder
Why we're here at all
Check out the shape of your circumstance
He wears the dress and she wears the pants
Here comes Jill and she needs romance
But you can't do jack so shut up and dance!

Sex is like a gun
You aim, you shoot, hah hah, you run
When you're splittin' hairs with Mr. Clean
It's like getting head from a guillotine
And the night has just begun

Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
Oh shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up
Don't get deep, shut up and dance
Talk is cheap, shut up and dance, yeah
Don't get deep, shut up and dance
Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
Shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up
Don't get deep, shut up and dance, ah yeah


31.Cryin'

There was a time
When I was so brokehearted
Love wasn't much of a friend of mine
The tables have turned - yeah
'Cause me and them ways have parted
That kinda love was the killin' kind

All I want is someone I can't resist
I know - all I - need to know
By the way I got kissed

I was Cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was Cryin' just to get you
Now I'm tryin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do down on me

Now there's not even breathing room
Between pleasure and pain
Yeah you cry when we're makin' love
Must be one and the same

It's down on me
Yeah, I got to tell you something
It's been on my mind, girl I gotta say
We're partners in crime
You got that certain something
What you do to me takes my breath away

Now the word out on the street
Is the devil's in your kiss
If our love goes up in flames
That's a fire I can't resist

I was Cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was Cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do to me

'Cause what you got inside
Ain't where your love should stay
Yeah, our love, sweet love, ain't love
'Til you give your heart away

I was Cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was Cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' just to let you
Do what you do, what you do down on me
Baby, baby, baby

I was Cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was Cryin' when I met you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do down to, down to, down to

I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery


32.Gotta Love It

(Chocking)

(Psychadelic Sandwich)

Any way you can feel it
You shouldn't try to conceal it baby
You got to make up your mind

Any way I can steal it
Any way you can deal it to me
You know the pleasure's all mine

(Chorus)
You gotta love it
You better own it
You gotta love it
And God knows it
You gutta shu uh shove it
I'm gonna make things happen

Goin' round n' round n' round...
That's Right!

I wanna say you're a firecracker
I wanna say you're a switchblade knife
You make your sex a career

Comin' down from an all night tripper
Pull your foot from the ruby slipper
'Cause you can't get it from here

(Chorus)
Goin' round n' round n' round n' round....

I got this feeling deep inside my love
Overwhelming feeling but I know not what
One thing's for sure I ain't got time for those
Who can't relate

You gotta learn to love the midnight madness
You gotta revel in the good and badness
If Yin n' Yang is your thing

What I gotta do to try and reach ya
Is it for real or just a double feature
So let's go throw the I Ching

(Chorus)


33.Crazy

Come Here baby
You know you drive me up a wall the way you make good on all the
nasty tricks you pull
Seems like we're makin' up more than we're makin' love
And it always seems you got somn' on your mind other than me
Girl, you got to change your crazy ways
You hear me

Say you're leavin' on a seven thirty train and that you're
headin' out to Hollywood
Girl you been givin' me that line so many times it kinda gets
like feelin' bad looks good

Sends a man right to his grave...

You turn it on
Then you're gone
Yeah you drive me
Crazy, crazy, crazy, for you baby
What can I do, honey
I feel like the color blue...

You're packin' up your stuff and talkin' like it's tough and
tryin' to tell me that it's time to go
But I know you ain't wearin' nothin' underneath that overcoat
And it's all a show

That kind of lovin'
Makes me wanna pull
Down the shade, yeah
That kind of lovin'
Yeah now I'm never, never, never, never gonna be the same

I go crazy, crazy, baby, I go crazy
You turn it on
Then you're gone

35.Amazing

I kept the right ones out
And let the wrong ones in
Had an angel of mercy
To see me through all my sins
There were times in my life
When I was goin' insane
Tryin' to walk through the pain

And when I lost my grip
And I hit the floor
Yeah, I thought I could leave
But couldn't get out the door
I was so sick n' tired
Of livin' a lie
I was wishing that I would die

(Chorus)
It's amazing
With the blink of an eye
You finally see the light
It's amazing
That when the moment arrives
You know you'll be alright
It's amazing
And I'm saying a prayer
For the desperate hearts tonight

That one last shot's a Permanent Vacation
And a how high can you fly with broken wings
Life's a journey - not a destination
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings

You have to learn to crawl
Before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen
To all that righteous talk
I was out on the street
Just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay alive

(Chorus)

'So, from all of us at Aerosmith
To all of you out there, wherever you are.
Remember- the light at the end of the tunnel
May be you. Goodnight!
