| 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:You Don't Know Me Artist: Ray Charles - Contributor:Webmaster | |
You give your hand to me And then you say hello I can hardly speak My heart is beating so And anyone can tell You think you know me well But you don't know me Oh you don't know the one That thinks of you at night Who longs to kiss your lips And yearns to squeeze you tight No I'm just a friend That's all I've ever been You just don't know me I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by The chance that you might love me too You give your hand to me And then you say goodbye I watch you walk away Beside the lucky guy You'll never, never know The one who loves you so You just don't know me I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by The chance that you might love me too You give your hand to me And then you say goodbye I watch you walk away Beside the lucky guy Who'll never, never know The one who loves you so You just don't know me You'll never, ever know mmmm, cause you just don't know me | |
