| I had a friend
Was a big baseball player
Back in high school
He could throw that speedball by ya
Make you look like a fool boy
Saw him the other night at this roadside bar
I was walkin' in, he was walkin' out
We went back inside
Sat down, had a few drinks
But all we kept talkin' about
Was Glory Days!
Well they'll pass you by
Glory Days!
In the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory Days! Glory Days!
Well, there's a girl that lives up the block
Back in school she could turn all the boy's heads
Sometimes on a Friday I'll stop by
And have a few drinks
After she puts her kids to bed
Her and her husband Bobby
Well they split up
I guess it's two years gone by
We just sit around, talkin' bout the old times
And when she feels like cryin'
She starts laughin', thinkin' about
Glory Days!
Well they'll pass you by
Glory Days!
In the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory Days! Glory Days!
Now I think I'm goin' down to the well tonight
Gonna drink till I get my fill
And I hope when I get old
I don't sit around talkin' about it
But I probably will
Yeah, just sittin' back
Trying to recapture
A little of the glory of
Well time slips away
And leaves you with nothin' Mister
But boring stories of
Glory Days! Well they'll pass you by
Glory Days! In the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory Days! Glory Days! Glory Days!

| THE WIND CRIES MARY
Jimi Hendrix
AFTER ALL JACKS ARE IN THEIR BOXES
AND THE CLOWNS HAVE ALL GONE TO BED
YOU CAN HEAR HAPPINESS STAGGERING ON DOWN THE STREET
FOOTPRINTS DRESSED IN RED
AND THE WIND WHISPERS MARY
A BROOM IS DREARILY SWEEPING
UP THE BROKEN PIECES OF YESTERDAY'S LIFE
SOMEWHERE A QUEEN IS WEEPING
SOMEWHERE A KING HAS NO WIFE
AND THE WIND CRIES MARY
THE TRAFIC LIGHTS THEY TURN A BLUE TOMORROW
AND SHINE THER EMPTINESS DOWN ON MY BED
THE TINY ISLAND SAGS DOWNSTREAM
CAUSE THE LIFE THAT THEY LIVED IS DEAD
AND THE WIND SCREAMS MARY
WILL THE WIND EVER REMEMBER
THE NAMES IT HAS BLOWN IN THE PAST
AND WITH THIS CRUTCH ITS OLD AGE AND ITS WISDOM
IT WHISPERS "NO, THIS WILL BE THE LAST"
AND THE WIND CRIES MARY
Do you know how pale & wanton thrillful
comes death on a strange hour unannounced,
unplanned for like a scaring over-friendly
guest you've brought to bed
Death makes angels of us all
& gives us wings where we had shoulders
smooth as raven's claws
--Jim Morrison (An American Prayer)

| Here you go, Jersey boy :)
As I sit in this smokey room
The night about to end
I pass my time as a stranger
But this bottle´s my only friend
Remember when we used to park
On Butler Street out in the dark
Remember when we lost the keys
And you lost more than that in my backseat
Remember when we used to talk
About busting out - we´d break their hearts
Together - forever
Chorus:
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
You and me and my old friends
Hoping it would never end
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
Holdin' on - we got to try
Holdin' on to never say goodbye
Remember days of skipping school
Racing cars and being cool
With a six pack and the radio
We didn't need no place to go
Remember at the prom that night
You and me we had a fight
But the band they played our favorite song
And I held you in my arms so strong
We danced so close
We danced so slow
And I swore I'd never let you go
Together - forever
Chorus
Solo
I guess you'd say we used to talk
About busting out
We'd break their hearts
Together - forever
Chorus

| GonzoStyle, GREAT hendrix song! Heres another,
well... actually a Dylan song(written) preformed
by Hendrix but prob my second fav. after that one!
There must be some kind
of way out of here
Said the joker to the theif
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief
Business men they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None will level on the wine
Nobody of it is worth
No reason to get exited
The thief he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us talk falsely now
The hour's getting late
All along the watchtower
The princess kept the view
While all the women came
And went bare feet servants too
Outside in the cold distance
A wild cat did growl
Two riders were aproaching
And the wind began to howl
"I put on my Hendrix album and my son said
"daddy, who's that?" 'well son, that is GOD"
-Robert Plant

| My apologies...
Didn't Sinatra hate Jersey and never go back after he left?

Jersey is the land of Springsteen & Sinatra
My Way
Frank Sinatra:The Reprise Collection
Written by: Paul Anka
Lyrics:
And now, the end is here
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I traveled each and ev'ry highway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course, each careful step along the byway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way,
"Oh, no, oh, no, not me, I did it my way"
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows and did it my way!
Yes, it was my way
Do you know how pale & wanton thrillful
comes death on a strange hour unannounced,
unplanned for like a scaring over-friendly
guest you've brought to bed
Death makes angels of us all
& gives us wings where we had shoulders
smooth as raven's claws
--Jim Morrison (An American Prayer)

Gonzo, without a doubt my favorite Sinatra tune....
Froy definetly bro, no matter who says what Sinatra was definetly the chairman of the fuckin board nuff said.
here's one of my favs also.
That's Life
Frank Sinatra
Writer(s): Kay/Gordon/Kay/Gordon
That's life, that's what people say.
You're riding' high in April,
Shot down in May.
But I know I'm gonna change that tune,
When I'm back on top in June.
That's life, funny as it seems.
Some people get their kicks,
Steppin' on dreams;
But I don't let it get me down,
'Cause this ol' word keeps getting around.
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself flat on my face,
I pick myself up and get back in the race.
That's life, I can't deny it,
I thought of quitting,
But my heart just won't buy it.
If I didn't think it was worth a try,
I'd roll myself up in a big ball and die.
Do you know how pale & wanton thrillful
comes death on a strange hour unannounced,
unplanned for like a scaring over-friendly
guest you've brought to bed
Death makes angels of us all
& gives us wings where we had shoulders
smooth as raven's claws

| How about this one....originally done by Old Blue Eyes, and covered by The Boss...
Angel Eyes
Hey drink up all you people
Order anything you see
And have fun you happy people
The laugh and the drinks on me
Try to think that love's not around
Still it's uncomfortably near
My poor old heart ain't gaining any ground
Because my angel eyes ain't here
Angel eyes, that old Devil sent
They glow unbearably bright
Need I say that my love's mispent
Mispent with angel eyes tonight
So drink up all of you people
Order anything you see
And have fun you happy people
The drink and the laughs on me
Pardon me but I got to run
The fact's uncommonly clear
I got to find who's now the number one
And why my angel eyes ain't here
Excuse me while I disappear
