| Black Denim Trousers | |
|
[Words and Music by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller] He wore black denim trousers and motorcycle boots And a black leather jacket with an eagle on the back He had a hopped-up 'cycle that took off like a gun That fool was the terror of Highway 101 Well, he never washed his face and he never combed his hair He had axle grease embedded underneath his fingernails On the muscle of his arm was a red tattoo A picture of a heart saying "Mother, I love you" He had a pretty girlfriend by the name of Mary Lou But he treated her just like he treated all the rest And everybody pitied her 'cause everybody knew He loved that doggone motorcycle best He wore black denim trousers and motorcycle boots And a black leather jacket with an eagle on the back He had a hopped-up 'cycle that took off like a gun That fool was the terror of Highway 101 ---- Instrumental Interlude ---- Mary Lou, poor girl, she pleaded and she begged him not to leave She said "I've got a feeling if you ride tonight I'll grieve" But her tears were shed in vain and her every word was lost In the rumble of his engine and the smoke from his exhaust Then he took off like the Devil and there was fire in his eyes He said "I'll go a thousand miles before the sun can rise" But he hit a screamin' diesel that was California-bound And when they cleared the wreckage, all they found Was his black denim trousers and motorcycle boots And a black leather jacket with an eagle on the back But they couldn't find the 'cycle that took off like a gun And they never found the terror of Highway 101 | |

| Title:It Hurts To Be In Love Artist: Gene Pitney - Contributor:Webmaster | |
It hurts to be in love When the only one you love Turns out to be someone who's Not in love with you It hurts to love her so When deep down inside you know She will never want you No matter what you do And so you cry a little bit (It hurts to be in love) Ah, I die a little bit (It hurts to be in love) Day and night, night and day It hurts to be in love this way How long can I exist Wanting lips I've never kissed She gives all her kisses To somebody else She thinks I'm just a friend Though it hurts I must pretend The only way to keep her Is to keep it to myself And so I cry a little bit (It hurts to be in love) Oh, I die a little bit (It hurts to be in love) Day and night, night and day It hurts to be in love this way ---- Instrumental Interlude ---- And so I cry a little bit (It hurts to be in love) Oh, I die a little bit (It hurts to be in love) Day and night, night and day It hurts to be in love this way It hurts to be in love Day and night, night and day It hurts to be in love Night and day, day and night It hurts to be in love Day and night, night and day | |
