Aaron Neville – The Roadie Song

Pazartesi, 12 Ocak 2009

You know night after night these guys are setting up, hooking up,
climbing past the sky. They don`t really get no praise,
so I wrote this song in honor of them,
cuz without them there`d be no show.
So get a roadie song, after all he ain`t no bum
Give a roadie a hand, he`s really part of the band
Get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie song
Them speakers weigh a ton
His work is never done
So get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie song
Got a mighty long ways to travel
He`s gotta cover many miles of gravel
He`s gotta long long ways to go
And if he don`t make it, there ain`t gonna be no show
So give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie song
He climbed to kingdom Come
He`s up to see the sun
Get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie song
He`s got a mighty long ways to travel
He`s gotta cover many miles of gravel
He`s gotta long long ways to go
And if he don`t make it, there ain`t gonna be no show
Get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie song, after all he ain`t no bum
And get a roadie a hand, he`s really part of the band
Give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie song
Get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie, get a roadie song
Give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give a roadie song
Give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give the roadie, give a roadie song

Aaron Neville – The Ten Commandments Of Love

Pazartesi, 12 Ocak 2009

Thou shalt never love another
And stand by me all the while
Take happiness with the heartache
And go through love wearing a smile
Oh, how happy we will be if we keep the ten commandments of love
Oh love
Thou shalt always have faith in me
In everything I say and do
Love with all your heart and soul
Until our life on earth is through
Oh how happy we will be if we keep the ten commandments of love
Love, oh sweet love
It`s oh, oh so grand
You will find since the beginning of time
It has proved throughout all the land
So come to me when I am lonely
Kiss me when you hold me tight
Treat me sweet and gentle
When we say good night
Oh, how happy we will be if we keep the ten commandments of love
Oh, love
Oh, how happy we will be if we keep the ten commandments of love
(spoken) The Ten Commandments of Love

Aaron Neville – The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

Pazartesi, 12 Ocak 2009

The First Time ever I saw your face
I Thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless sky, my love,
And the first time ever I kissed your mouth,
I felt the earth move in my hand,
Like a trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love,
And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
and I knew our joy it would fill the earth
And would last til the end of time, my love,
It would last til the end of time
The first time ever I saw, saw your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face

Aaron Neville – The Christmas Song

Pazartesi, 12 Ocak 2009

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos.
Everybody knows a turkey
and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight.
They know that Santa`s on his way
He`s loaded lots of toys
and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother`s child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer
really know how to fly.
And so I`m offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it`s been said
many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you.

Aaron Neville – The Bells

Pazartesi, 12 Ocak 2009

I`ll never hear the bells if you leave me
I`ll never hear the bells
I`ll never hear the bells if you leave me
I`ll never hear the bells
Do you hear what I hear
Your lips are kissing mine
Can you hear the bells darling
Can you hear them when I`m kissing you
What do I have to do to make you feel the tingling too
Can you hear the bells darling
Can you hear them when I`m kissing you
Oh yeah
Oh, I hear the bells, ringing in my ear
Tell me do you love me, do you love me, do you love me, do you love me like I love you
Oh, it`s one thing that I want you to remember
If you ever leave me I believe I`ll go insane
And I`ll never hear the bells again
No, I`ll never hear the bells again
No, I`ll never hear the bells again

Aaron Neville – Tell It Like It Is

Pazartesi, 12 Ocak 2009

If you want something to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
Baby my time is too expensive
And I`m not a little boy
If you are serious
Don`t play with my heart
It makes me furious
But if you want me to love you
Then a baby I will, girl you know that I will
Tell it like it is
Don`t be ashamed to let your conscience be your guide
But I know deep down inside me
I believe you love me, forget your foolish pride
Life is too short to have sorrow
You may be here today and gone tomorrow
You might as well get what you want
So go on and live, baby go on and live
Tell it like it is
I`m nothing to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
But I… Tell it like it is
My time is too expensive and I`m not your little boy

Aaron Neville – Sweet Amelia

Pazartesi, 12 Ocak 2009

Oh Amelia, oh Amelia
A southern woman, a southern woman
Never had a chance to say goodbye
I met her back in sixty-three, she was such a mystery
She was there on Barron Street, down in New Orleans
So wild, but yet so tame, she could calm a hurricane
She was only seventeen and Amelia was her name
Oh when I took her for a ride, she got close by my side
And when I looked into her eye, Amelia kept me hypnotized
But in my heart she fell, oh I got pulled into her spell
I can still see her there, with the flowers in her hair
Oh Amelia, my southern woman, oh my woman
I can still feel you, feel you, feel you, everytime I close my eyes
Sweet Amelia, sweet Amelia
Where did you run to
We never had a chance to say goodbye
Never heard her say goodbye
I remember making love underneath the stars above
I can feel the summer breeze up in magnolia trees
That night in the southern light, the girl she took me by the hand
I was weak as a little lamb, but I became a man
Love was pumping through my veins, her lips were sweet like sugarcane
We rode all night in the rain, `cross lake Poncetrain
She had a heart as fine as fire, burning innocent desire
I can still see her there, with flowers in her hair
Oh Amelia, oh Amelia
A southern woman, a southern woman
I can still feel you, everytime I close my eyes
Sweet Amelia, sweet Amelia
Where did you run to, where`d you run to
We never had a chance to say goodbye
Never want to say goodbye
Just like a shooting star, she vanished in the night
But I`ll always remember her lips so warm and tender
And in my heart she`ll always shine so bright
Sweet Amelia, if I could just see her one more time
Oh Amelia, my southern woman
A southern woman,
I can still feel you, oh I can feel you, everytime I close my eyes, close my eyes
Sweet Amelia, sweet Amelia
Where did you run to
We never had a chance to say goodbye (never, never, never, never never say goodbye)
Oh Amelia, oh Amelia
A southern woman, a southern woman
I can still feel you, everytime I close my eyes
Sweet Amelia, sweet Amelia
Where did you run to
We never had a chance to say goodbye
Oh Amelia, a southern woman,
A southern woman
I can still feel you, everytime I close my eyes, from the bottom of my heart
Sweet Amelia, sweet Amelia,
Where did you run to
Where did you run to
We never had a chance to say goodbye

Aaron Neville – Such A Night

Pazartesi, 12 Ocak 2009

Twas the night before Christmas all white with snow
I was lying back waiting for my baby to show
I was searching my mind for the right things to say
`Cause she had to leave the very next day
When out on the driveway I heard such a clatter
I dimmed all the lights and put on Clyde McPhatter
And she came to the doorway and she gave me a kiss
And the rest of the night went something like this…..
It was a night
Oo what a night it was, it really was
Such a night
The moon was bright
Oo how bright it was, it really was
Such a night
The night was alive
With the stars above
Oo when she kissed
I had to fall in love.
Oo it was a kiss
Oo what a kiss it was, it really was
Such a kiss
How she could kiss!
Oo what a kiss it was, it really was
Such a kiss
Just the thought of her lips sets me afire
I reminisce, I`m filled with desire.
And I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender (doo wah, doo wah)
Oh how I remember! (doo wah, doo wah)
I`ll always remember…(doo wah, doo wah)
Oo that night
Oo what a night it was, it really was
Such a night
Came the dawn
And my heart and her love and the night were gone
But I know I`ll never forget her kiss in the moonlight
Oo such a kiss
Oo such a night
And I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender (doo wah, doo wah)
Oh how I remember! (doo wah, doo wah)
I`ll always remember (doo wah, doo wah)
Oo that night
Oo what a night it was, it really was
Such a night
Came the dawn
And my heart and her love and the night were gone
But I know I`ll never forget her kiss in the moonlight
Oo such a kiss
Oo such a night
Well it`s now Christmas morning And my baby`s gone
So I light up the tree And turn the radio on
I sit down in my chair And let out a sigh
I sang Away in a Manager and Angels on High
Now my family and friends will soon knock on my door
So I`ll say Merry CHristmas to you and to yours
May your days be cheerful and your burdens be light
Oh but mostly I wish everyone Such a Night
Now she`s gone, gone, gone
Yeah she`s gone, gone, gone
And the dawn, dawn, dawn
And the night was gone
And my heart was gone
And her love was gone
And before the dawn
Oh oh oh
Such a night!!

Aaron Neville – Space Man

Pazartesi, 12 Ocak 2009

Hey la, um de hey oh la
Said, hey la, um de hey oh le
Hey, hey, hey, hey oh la
Said hey, oh hey, feelin` good today
One day as I was a havin` myself a party
You know a flyin` saucer landed right by my side
You know a big green man jumped out and boy you know he robbed me
You know he beat me for my bottle before I got high
I hittim` up knowing that I was dead
`Cause he had that big ray-gun pointed at my head
But curiosity will get the best of the best
You know he smelled that bottle and the liquor did the rest
And I said, Hey la, um de hey oh la
Hey la, um de hey oh le
Hey, hey, hey, hey oh la
Hey, oh hey, it ain`t over yet
Turned that bottle up and started drinking
It was a long, long time before he pulled it away
His eyes got crossed and man his knees started wobblin`
He took four steps forward and this is what he said
He said, Hey la, um de hey, oh la
Hey la, um de hey, oh le
He said hey, hey, hey, hey oh la
Hey oh la, feel good today
I could see this cat was a just about to party
`Cause he had that great big green in his eye
He said come on hurry on down, let`s forget our troubles
Just jump in my space hot-rod and take a little ride
So now I`m not afraid of no kind of space man
`Cause I keep my defenses by my side
And if you ever see me any place or any time
You can bet I`m a holding my bottle by my side
And I`m gonna sing Hey la, um de hey, oh la
Hey la, um de hey, oh le
Hey, hey, hey, hey oh la
Hey oh hey, I feel good today
