My Side Of Town

Lutricia Mcneal My Side Of Town Lyrics
1.Ain't That Just The Way

She was a very special warm and gentle person
Who put in music in the world and spoken in rhyme
And it hurts me that i never really knew her
&cause all it would have taken was some time

You know he always seemed to be there when i stumbled
And when mountains got to steep for me to climb
And it tears me up to think i never touched her
&cause all it would have taken was some time

Ain't that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
But not gettin' into someone i should know

Now she's in another place and i can't reach her
And i feel as though i'm guilty of a crime
I took all she had to give and gave her nothin'
And all it would have taken was some time

Ain't that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
But not gettin' into someone i should know

Ain't that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
But not gettin' into someone i should know

Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere

Ain't that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down
Movin' way too fast or much too slow
Gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
Gettin' no, no, nowhere
But not gettin' into someone i should know

Ain't that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down
Movin' way too fast or much too slow


2.Always

(mcneal/jay g/papalexis/larossi/benn/yacoub)

Always here for you
I'll be there for you
I know we'll make it through
What you heard about me is true
But that doesn't mean
I won't be true to you
My love for you will last, my friend
All the way to the very end
Always here for you
'cause i know we'll make it through
You're my dream come true boy
You're just everything i'm wishing for
To what we have we're still holding on
Don't give up on me, it won't be long
I'll always be here for you anytime
I'm gonna show the world that you are mine
Always here for you...
Other couples comes and goes
That's not us no, no, no
We're walking on a higher ground
I wish that you could see
This love was meant to be
I'll always be there
Always be there for you
Always there for you...
'this song is for all the lovers out there!'


3.Stranded

stranded

I don't wanna feel like i'm stranded

You left me all alone
I can't take it no more
I wish that you were here by my side
Cause i remember those days
When it was our time
If i could right the wrong that i did
I would give it all to you
If you were here
I know you would too
I know you would too... yeah

Chorus:
I don't wanna feel like i'm stranded
Oh baby i don't wanna be here alone
Cause i don't wanna feel abanded
But baby heaven is the place our love belongs

Now that i'm alone
And you walked away from me
I just don't wanna live anymore
Anymore, anymore baby
I gave my life to you
Like you gave your life to me
If only i could show what i mean
Cause i need you more than ever
If you were here
You would need me too
Don't wanna be, don't wanna be

I don't wanna feel like i'm stranded
Oh baby i don't wanna be here alone
Cause i don't wanna feel abanded
But baby heaven is the place our love belongs

Bridge:
I know i'll see you again some day
I'll be waiting for that day all my life
All my life
I know that things would be the same again
I know some day i'll see you again

I don't wanna feel like i'm stranded
Oh baby i don't wanna be here alone
Cause i don't wanna feel abanded
But baby heaven is the place our love belongs

I don?t wanna feel like i'm stranded
Oh baby i don't wanna be here alone
Cause i don't wanna feel abanded
But baby heaven is the place our love belongs


4.Whatever Makes You Happy


5.My Side Of Town

Boys are getting down
Sisters fool around
Let me tell you a story
About my side of town
Johnny was the sweetest kisser
Thinking that he wouldn't miss her
Little did he know
That she would let him go
Mary was a happy girl
Living in a different world
Grooving all night long
And listening to this song
Boys are getting down
Sisters fool around
Let me tell you a story
About my side of town
Bobby was a shooting star
But he didn't get that far
Dreams went up in smoke
As he went for the toke
Whatever you like is fine with me
What turns you on and set you free
Grooving all night long
Andl listening to this song
Boys are getting down
Sisters fool around
Let me tell you a story
About my side of town


6.The Greatest Love You'll Never Know

Cause all the love you had to give
Was never, never ment for me.
I see the way you look at her
She's everything you're living for.
And now there's such a miracle
When it comes knocking at your door, but
I don't know what to do, i'm in love too.
Can't see where i'm supposed to go from here, oh
Chorus:
There's no way in, there's no way out
You're the one i'm living for
You're the one i have to live without.
I came on, oh
I can't let go
Cause i have found the greatest love,
The greatest love you'll never know.
So until i find my way
Tomorrow's just another day.
And you are just a lonely wind
That never ever sees the way in.
Someone hear my prayers
Someone somewhere
Cause i know i can't go on this thing forever.
Chorus
Bridge:
I've never laughed, i've never cried
Our love can't live
But my love, my love will never die
Chorus
I'm living for a fantasy, something that could never be


7.Someone Loves You Honey

someone loves you hunny
No matter what just be guy baby
Someone loves you hunny more than anything in the world


8.Washington

(mcneal/jay g/papalexis/larossi/benn/yacoub)

I wanna go to washington
I wanna meet the president
I'm feeling ten feet tall,
I'm indestructible to ya'll
I wanna go to washington
I wanna meet the president
I'm on top of the world
I'm indestructible to ya'll
We all have ups and downs
Tough luck or the other way around
Some days are just not meant to be
That's the way it is, so listen to me
I wanna go-go, i wanna go-go now
I wanna go to washington
I wanna meet the president
I'm feeling ten feet tall,
I'm indestructible to ya'll
I wanna go to washington
I wanna meet the president
I'm on top of the world
I'm indestructible to ya'll
It's strange when people say
That they are living their lives
Day by day
I'm never satisfied
We've got to reach that all time high
I wanna go-go, i wanna go-go now
I wanna go to...
'i guess that i'm a moody girl. i got my ups and downs. this
Is how i feel when i'm on a roll! just go for it, take some
Names and kick some butt!'

10.Badlands(Feat.Swing)

(mcneal/jay g/papalexis/larossi/benn/yacoub/swing)

I'm talking about the badlands
Ain't nothing but a sadland
I don't blame it on the city
But the badlands put its mark on you
I see johnny at the corner
As the popsicleman
All of a sudden he's got a gun in his hand
Now johnny's in a wheelchair
'cause of the popsicleman
At the wrong place at the wrong time
Now he understands
I need to find some peace of mind
I need a rest, i need to unwind
This hangin' and bangin' goin' on
This ain't no hell, this is my home
Talking about the badlands
Ain't nothing but a sadland
I don't blame it on the city
But the badlands put its mark on you

Bad land!
You gotta know the streets muthaf-a
It can't be no one
Time beef muthaf-a
Can you feel me really
I hope you rocking mic's
Than you ain't slinging dope
Check the masses who major in the
Gunblast on yah filthy rich ass
Cause you ain't never cut class
But they did
Now they're f-n' underrated
Y'all showed no love
So now their hearts are full with hatred
And ain't trying to throw no joints, or no bullsh...
Just drink liquor, smoke hydro and just pull sh...
Stay jigg without the man, stack the grand
Cause the plan done work
Now we're duckin' from uncle sam
Blam! take that on yah way out
Stay out. yah days out - lights out!
Back to my hideout
You inside out makes the inside edition
A scar is my tradition
Doin' you in intermission


11.Crossroads / The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter


12.When A Child Is Born(Original Version)

a ray of hope flickers in the sky,
A tiny star lights up way up high,
All across the land
Dawns a brand-new morn,
This comes to pass
When a child is born.

A silent wish sails the seven seas,
The winds of change
Whisper in the trees,
And the walls of doubt
Crumble tost and torn,
This comes to pass
When a child is born.

A rosy hue settles all around,
You got the feel
You're on solid ground,
For a spell of two no one seems forlorn,
This comes to pass
When a child is born

(and all of this happens,
Because the world is waiting,
Waiting for on child,
Black, white, yellow,
No one knows,
But a child that'll grow up,
And turn tears to laughter,
Hate to love, war to peace,
And everyone
To everyone's neighbor,
And misery and suffering
Will be words to be forgotten
Forever)

It's all a dream, an illusion now,
It must come true
Sometime soon somehow.
All across the land
Dawns a brand-new morn,
This comes to pass
When a child is born.
