A good beat is fine but without some good lyrics forget it! A true music lover appreciates good lyrics. A good song can take you places. Places beyond the everyday hum drum world we get so engrossed in. On this page I will list lyrics to some of my favorite songs. These songs I've either sang at one point and time, cruised to or cried to.............hope you like them too!
Nobody's Girl
written by: Larry John McNally
performed by: Bonnie Raitt
She don't need anybody to tell her she's pretty.
She's heard it every single day of her life.
He's got to wonder what she sees in him
when there's so many others standing in line.
She gives herself to him,
but he's still on the outside.
She's alone in this world.
She's nobody's girl.
She's nobody's girl.
She shows up at his doorstep in the middle of the night.
Then she disappears for weeks at a time.
Just enough to keep him wanting more
But never is he satisfied.
And he's left to pick up the peices
Wondering what does he do this for.
She's off in her own little world.
She's nobody's girl.
She's nobody's girl.

He said, "Before I met her, I didn't love nothin'.
I could take and leave it-that was okay.
She brings out a want in me
for things I didn't even know that I need."

She does anything she wants any time she wants to
with anyone-you know she wants it all.
Still she gets all upset over the least little thing
Man, you hurt her, it makes you feel so small.
And she's a walking contradiction,
but I ache for her inside.
She's fragile like a string of pearls.
She's nobody's girl.
She's nobody's girl.
She's nobody's girl.
Something To Talk About
written by: Shirley Elkhard
performed by: Bonnie Raitt
People are talking, talking 'bout people
I hear them whisper, you won't believe it
They think we're lovers kept under covers
I just ignore it, but they keep saying
We laugh just a little too loud
We stand just a little too close
We stare just a little too long
Maybe they're seeng something we don't. Darlin'.

Let's give them something to talk about
Let's give them something to talk about
Let's give them something to talk about
How about love?

I feel so foolish, I never noticed
You'd act so nervous,
Could you be falling for me?
It took a rumor to make me wonder
Now I'm convinced I'm going under
Thinking 'bout you every day
Dreaming 'bout you every night
Hoping that you feel the same way
Now that we know it, let's really show it , darlin'.

Let's give them something to talk about
Let's give them something to talk about
Let's give them something to talk about
How about love, love, love, love?


Come To Me
written & performed by: Bonnie Raitt

All I ever wanted
Was a love to be true
More than just enough to get me by
I want a love to see me through.

I don't need another well-spent night
Another clever, sideways glance
I wanna look my Baby in the eye
And know there's nothin left to chance.

Chorus
So if you're tired of being lonely
Beat up and confused
Darlin there is only
One thing you can do.
Come to Me
I'll be the one who's waiting
Come to Me
I got what you need
Come to Me
Won't be not hesitation
I know what you mean to me.

I'm gonna hold out for the one I want
Ain't gonna settle for less
Cause the kind of love I'm lookin for, Baby
You can't fake, you can't finesse.

I ain't lookin for the kind of man, Baby
can't stand a little shaky ground
He'll give me fire and tenderness
And got the guts to stick around.

Chorus
Louise
written by: Paul Siebel
performed by: Bonnie Raitt

Well they all said Louise was not half bad
It was written on the walls and window shades
And how she'd act the little girl
A deceiver, don't believe her that's her trade
Sometimes a bottle of perfume,
Flowers and maybe some lace
Men brought Louise ten cent trinkets
Their intentions were easily traced
Yes and everybody knew at times she cried
But women like Louise they get by.

Well everybody thought it kind of sad
When they found Louise in her room
They'd always put her down below their kind
Still some cried when she died this afternoon
Louise rode home on the mail train
Somewhere to the south I heard it said
Too bad it ended so ugly,
Too bad she had to go this way
Ah but the wind is blowing cold tonight
So good night Louise, good night.
