Bad Company lyrics
Album: Desolation Angels [1979]
| Crazy Circles | |
|
Life is like a merry go round painted horses riding up and down
Music takes you and you're gone again
Crazy circles never seem to end
Oh I will face the sun
Leavin shadows for behind
And together we'll go on
Through time oh yeah
Life is like a game of chance
Some find riches and some romance
Some find happiness and some find sorrow
Some find it today and some maybe tomorrow
Oh I will face the sun
Leavin shadows for behind
And together we'll go on
Through time oh yeah
Life is like a carousel you aim for heaven
And you wind up in hell
To all the world you're livin like a king
But you're just a puppet on a broken string
Oh I will face the sun
Leavin shadows for behind
And together we'll go on
Through time oh yeah
Life is like mm and the life is like mm
Crazy circles goin round and round
Crazy circles round and round and
One day you're up and the next day you're down
Life is like a merry go round

| Gone, Gone, Gone | |
|
Well, I been havin a litlle trouble lord
But I'm keepin it together yeah
My baby just walked out the doors
She said this time forever
It ain't the first time baby
Baby it wont be the last
I'd better get the boys round
And do some drinkin fast
Cause she's gone, gone, gone
I dont know if I'm happy
I don't know if I'm sad
She's gone gone gone
I dont know if i'll cry
I dont know if I'll die laughin
Well I'm gonna miss your lovin
And your perfume and your smile
I'm gonna miss your stealin all my booze
And talkin all the while
I'm gonna miss you cleanin round the home
And helpin with my blues
You know I think I'll get myself a maid
And take her on a cruise
It ain't the first time baby
Baby it wont be the last
I'd better get the boys round
And do some drinkin fast
Cause she's gone gone gone
AI dont know if I'm happy
I don't know if I'm sad
She's gone gone gone
I dont know if I'll cry
I dont know if I'll die laughin
It ain't the first time baby
Baby it wont be the last
I'd better get the boys round
And do some drinkin fast
Cause she's gone gone gone
I dont know if I'm happy
I don't know if I'm sad
She's gone gone gone
I dont know if I'll cry
I dont know if I'll die laughin

| Evil Wind | |
|
Ten thousand miles I've travelled,
Ten thousand miles an' more,
Now I found myself standing,
Outside of my babies door.
I've been gone such a long time,
I never thought I would return,
Now I found myself standing in the rain,
Waiting for your key to turn, yeah, yeah.
Evil wind, passed me by,
Troubled waters, pay me no mind. I have heard the thunder,
Rolling across the sky, I have seen the morning sun,
Burn on a mountain high, I have crossed the waters
That will keep them miles apart, Now I know the time has come
To make a brand new start.
Evil wind, passed me by, Troubled waters, pay me no mind, Yeah.
Fly plane I'm coming home again, Plane fly, like an eagle
through the sky, Evil wind, troubled water, Pay me no mind; pay me no mind, oh.
Oh, yeah.
Evil wind, passed me by,
Troubled waters, pay me no mind, yeah.

| Early in the Morning | |
|
Ohh, early in the morning and its time I went down
So I go sown 'cause I know I can say anyway
Oh, I love you 'cause I want to
Oh, I love you 'cause I want to
Oh, I love you 'cause I want to
Oh, I love you 'cause I want to
Summer sun is shinin' in my eyes as I go down
To feel you around me makes my life worthwhile night and day
Oh, I love you 'cause I want to
Oh, I love you 'cause I want to
Early in the mornin', early in the mornin', yeah
Lazy days drift away in time as I go down
To see you smile is to know what love means all the while
Oh, I love you 'cause I want to
Oh, I love you 'cause I want to
Oh, I love you 'cause I want to
Oh, I love you 'cause I want to
Down early in the mornin'

them saying, They're going to whip it up, And light up the lights
Oh, Atlanta, hear me calling, I'm coming back to you one fine day
No need to worry, there ain't no hurry, 'Cause I'm, on my way back to Georgia, On my way back to Georgia.

| Take the Time | |
|
If you want my love, you got it
A little something from above, tell me if you want it
But don't you leave me waiting, it don't matter where you are
There ain't nobody hiding, no matter how near or far you are
I'd pull the world apart, just to get a glimpse
One lie was all it took, I've missed you ever since, so get ready
Oooh, we're gonna take this town, oooh, we're gonna tear it down
And anywhere I go, baby, I see you
I gotta let you know, ooh darlin', just how much I need ya
This time I'm gonna find you, you gotta know how much I care
So take a look behind you, you'll see me everywhere, right there
I'm gonna do about anything to see your face again
And I'm gonna take this place apart, I'll find you in the end, so get ready
Oooh, we're gonna take this town, oooh, we're gonna tear it down, I said
Yeah, we're gonna take this town, baby I know, we're gonna tear it down
(Solo)
Oooh, we're gonna take this town, gonna tear it down, yeah, oh yeah - watch me
Oooh, we're gonna take this town, oooh, we're gonna tear it down
Yeah, we're gonna take this town, baby I know, we're gonna tear it down...

| Rhythm Machine | |
|
I'm a rhythm machine; you know what I mean,
I'm a rhythm machine; you know what I mean
I got time, running through my
head in bed,
Instead of sleep, how it looks instead,
I'm a rhythm machine; you know what I mean,
I'm a music man; I play the blues whenever I can,
I'm a music man; I play the blues whenever I can,
I get a flat backbeat, instead of food when I eat,
The ticking of a clock gets me out of my seat
I'm a music man; I play the blues whenever I can.
I'm her cross cut saw before I
was four
Smoked-staked lightning had me crawling across the floor
The beach ball didn't get me but that son-in-law did
I'm been keeping time ever since I was a kid
I'm a music machine, don't you know what I mean,
I'm rhythm machine; he knows what I mean, oh.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm a rhythm machine; I'm a rhythm machine,
I'm a rhythm machine, don't you know what I mean
I'm a music man, yeah,
I'm gonna play the blues whenever I can,
Hey, play the blues then,
Oh, yeah, yeah, play it for Kings and Queens,
Yeah, yeah, I'm a music man,
I'm a rhythm machine......

| She Brings Me Love | |
|
Sometimes I get a feeling,
Deep in my soul
Sometimes I get a feeling,
I just can't control
Sometimes I get a feeling,
Deep in my heart
It's such a feeling that I know we'll never part
[chorus]
She brings me love, love, I know it's all that I need.
-------------
Sometimes I get a feeling,
deep in my bones
Sometimes I get a feeling,
won't leave me alone
Sometimes I get a feeling,
Deep in......side
It's such a feeling that my love I can't hide
Chorus x 2
