Sixto Rodriguez - Street Boy Lyrics
Street boy
You've been out too long
Street boy
Ain't you got enough sense to go home
Street boy
You're gonna end up alone
You need some love and understanding
Not that dead-end life you're planning
Street boy

Sixto Rodriguez - Hate Street Dialogue Lyrics
Woman please be gone
You've stayed here much too long
Don't you wish that you could cry
Don't you wish I would die.
Seamy, seesaw kids
Childwoman on the skids
The dust will choke you blind
The lust will choke your mi...
Sixto Rodriguez - I Think Of You Lyrics
Just a song we shared, I'll hear
Brings memories back when you were here
Of your smiles, your easy laughter
Of your kiss, those moments after
I think of you
And think of you
And think of you
Of the dreams we dreamt together ...
Sixto Rodriguez - Gommorah Lyrics
Come on down and see me
You know my name well
I'm everything you've read
I've got it to sell.
The ladies on my street
Aren't there for their health
Welfare checks don't pave
The road to much wealth.

Sixto Rodriguez - Forget It Lyrics
But thanks for your time
Then you can thank me for mine
And after that's said
Forget it.
Don't be inane
There's no one to blame
No reason why
You should stay here
And lie to me.
Don't say anymore
Just walk ...
Sixto Rodriguez - Crucify Your Mind Lyrics
Was it a huntsman or a player
That made you pay the cost
That now assumes relaxed positions
And prostitutes your loss?
Were you tortured by your own thirst
In those pleasures that you seek
That made you Tom the curious
That makes you...
Sixto Rodriguez - Can't Get Away Lyrics
Born in the troubled city
In Rock and Roll, USA
In the shadow of the tallest building
I vowed I would break away
Listened to the Sunday actors
But all they would ever say
That you can't get away from it
No you can't get a...
Sixto Rodriguez - I'll Slip Away Lyrics
And I'll forget about the girl that said no
Then I'll tell who I want where to go
And I'll forget about your lies and deceit
And your attempts to be so discreet
Maybe today, yeah
I'll slip away
And you can keep...
Sixto Rodriguez - Like Janis Lyrics
And you measure for wealth by the things you can hold
And you measure for love by the sweet things you're told
And you live in the past of a dream that you're in
And your selfishness is your cardinal sin
And you want to be h...
Dayseeker - Starving To Be Empty Lyrics
[Verse 1: Rory Rodriguez]
I've been noticing my clothes fit a little bit looser
Worried is an understatement
When you don't have a future
Schizophrenic borderline, hear it in my sleep
Dying is a victory if it will ...
Sixto Rodriguez - Rich Folks Hoax Lyrics
The moon is hanging in the purple sky
The baby's sleeping while it's mother sighs
Talking 'bout the rich folks
Rich folks have the same jokes
And they park in basic places.
The priest is preaching from a shallow grave ...
Sixto Rodriguez - Sandrevan Lullaby Lyrics
The generals hate holidays
Others shoot up to chase the sun blues away
Another store front church is open
Sea of neon lights, a boxer his shadow fights
Soldier tired and sailor broken
Winter's asleep at my window
Cold wind waits ...
Sixto Rodriguez - Jane S. Piddy Lyrics
Now you sit there thinking feeling insecure
The mocking court gesture (jester) claims there is no proven cure
Go back to your chamber, your eyes upon the wall
'Cos you got no one to listen, you got no one to call
And you think I&...
Sixto Rodriguez - Cause Lyrics
Cause I lost my job two weeks before Christmas
And I talked to Jesus at the sewer
And the Pope said it was none of his God-damned business
While the rain drank champagne
My Estonian Archangel came and got me wasted
Cause the sweetest...
Sixto Rodriguez - I Wonder Lyrics
I wonder how many times you've been had
And I wonder how many plans have gone bad
I wonder how many times you had sex
I wonder do you know who'll be next
I wonder l wonder wonder I do
I wonder about the love you can't ...

Sixto Rodriguez - Inner City Blues Lyrics
Going down a dirty inner city side road
I plotted
Madness passed me by, she smiled hi
I nodded
Looked up as the sky began to cry
She shot it.
Met a girl from Dearborn, early six o'clock this morn
A cold fact
Asked about her b...

Sixto Rodriguez - The Establishment Blues Lyrics
The mayor hides the crime rate
Council woman hesitates
Public gets irate but forget the vote date

Everyone's protesting, boyfriend keeps suggesting

Sesame Street - Sesame Street Theme Lyrics
Sunny Day
Sweepin' the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet
Can you tell me how to get
How to get to Sesame Street
Come and play
Everything's A-OK
Friendly neighbors there
That's where we meet
Can you tell me how t...
Be Bop Deluxe - Down On Terminal Street Lyrics
I took a walk down terminal street last night
To see the ancient faces living there
I saw the sunken eyes of agony
And saw the desperate stations of despair
The madman waiting for the spirit girls to come

Sixto Rodriguez - Sugar Man Lyrics
Sugar man, won't you hurry

Sixto Rodriguez - A Most Disgusting Song Lyrics
I've played every kind of gig there is to play now

Slaves - People That You Meet Lyrics
[Intro]
I feel like shit
[Verse 1]
I met a man called Terry
He told me a joke
The punchline was dirty
And he was a dirty bloke
I handed him a dollar
So he would go away
He shook my hand and wished me well
And went about his day
[Verse 2]

Marc Morlock - Who is who and What is what Lyrics
Who is who and What is what

When I got older I started to fall
Now I'm an adult who's still falling down
Crying out for mama but she's not around
I'm a one way...
Mills Brothers - Shoe-Shine Boy Lyrics
Though you haven't many toys
You don't envy any boys

Your work is just a game
I'd like to sing your praise

You're just a shoe shine boy
You work hard all day

June Christy - Easy Street Lyrics
I remember the way
Our sainted mother
Would sit and croon us
Her lullaby
She'd say, kids, there's a place
That's like no other
You got to get there before you die
You don't get there
By playing from the rule bo...

Well I went back, back to Old Street
On the way to walk downtown

In a dream, a holy light
But I would still walk, back to Old Street
