Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Shinin' On

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Shinin' On

We are winners and losers, bed fellow choosers,
Put here to pass by the times.
We are space-age sailors, all had our failures,
Now everybody gonna' shine.

Keep it shinin' on.
Keep it shinin' on.

See the fire within them burnin',
Touch the fire make me feel so fine.
Keep the fire within you livin'
Everybody gonna' shine, shine, shine.

Keep it shinin' on.
Keep it shinin', shinin' on.
Keep it shinin' on.

Shinin' on.
Shinin' on.

What?
Well, alright.

Keep it shinin' on.
Keep it shinin', shinin' on.
Keep it shinin' on.

Keep it shinin' on, shinin' on, shinin' on.

Keep it shinin', keep it shinin', keep it shinin' on.
Keep it shinin', keep it shinin', keep it shinin' on.
Keep it shinin', keep it shinin', keep it shinin' on.
(and so on, in rounds)

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Sin's A Good Man's Brother

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Sin's A Good Man's Brother

Sin's A Good Man's Brother

Ain't seen a night, things work out right, go by.
Things on my mind, and I just don't have the time, and it don't seem right.
Ain't seen a day, that I don't hear people say, they know they're gonna' die.
This may seem a little bit crazy, but I don't think you should be so lazy.
If you think you've heard this before, well, stick around I'm gonna' tell you
more.

One just like the other, sin's a good man's brother, but is that right?
You tell me that I don't, then I say I won't, but then I might.
You said this is the way it's supposed to be, but it just don't seem right to
me, and that's outta' sight.
Some folks need an education, don't give up, or we'll loose the nation.
You say we need a revolution? It seems to be the only solution.

Talk to the people, but they just don't listen, no.
Talk to the people, but they just don't listen.
Talk to the people, but they just don't listen, no.
Talk to the people ...

Why won't they listen to rhyme or reason?

We see their faces and we're just tryin' to reach them.
When we ...

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - She Got To Move Me

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - She Got To Move Me

Feelin' kind of down 'cause I needed some female company.
Suddenly I felt this pair of eyes starin' at me.
She got to move me, she got the soul,
Never should have told me she was only fourteen years old.
How was I to know?

She said ...
Chorus
Get it up baby, don't you want me to shake that thing?
Get it up baby, drive me crazy, I'll do anything.
Get it up baby, I came even to make you say, shake that thing.

Oooo ...

Make me want to yell, make me want to shout, make me want to scream.
I didn't have to fantasize, she made me dream.
She got to move me, she got the soul,
Her eyes could tantalize for fourteen years old.
How was I to know?

She said ...
Chorus

Owww ...

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - I Can Feel Him In The Morning

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - I Can Feel Him In The Morning

I Can Feel Him In The Morning

Child 1:
He kind of started all the plants growing, and he started people. Well, I
guess he's kind of big and fat.

Child 2:
He can see us wherever we do ... whatever we do. He has such powerful eyes --
he has to have millions and thousands and billions. And he can still see us
when we're bad.

Child 3:
He could be sitting on the table right now, but you can't see him.

Child 4:
He can't be everywhere at once doing everything for everybdy. Everybody can't
get what they want.

Child 5:
Well, his job is to make us good and to make us happy and make us parents
happy.

Child 6:
Good is the right thing and bad is the wrong thing.

Child 7:
When I'm good my mother never yells at me, when I'm bad she does.

Child 8:
Good means to obey your mother and father, to do what the teacher says -- the
things right. I feel miserable when I'm ... when I'm bad, I feel miserable on
the inside but, on the outside, I just feel like I ... I feel now.

Child 9:
I think ... um, um ... there are more people that are bad than there are good.
And, um ... if you're good, you'll live forever. And, if you're bad, you'll
die when you die ... (repeat last sentence two more times to fade in echo)

Take me down to the water, let me feel it run over me.
Let me feel the pain and the coldness, the loneliness that there must be.
Whoa, can't you see their dreams, as they go drifting by?
Whoa, can't you see their faces, and their tear-soaked eyes?

CHORUS
I can feel him in the morning, I can feel him in the evening too.
I can hear him in the morning, tellin' me what I got to do.
Got to make a new world, ought to make the old one right.
I can see him in the morning, I can see him in the stars at night.

Take me out to the battlefield, let me hear the shells flying by.
Let me hear the sound of the cannons, let me hear them scream and cry.
Whoa, can't you hear their dreams, as they tumble to the blood-soaked ground?
Whoa, hear them scream for shelter, from the world they never found.

CHORUS

Oooo, Oooo, Oooo, Oooo-ooo. (repeated out to end)

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Someone

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Someone

Why, oh why, oh why should I care for someone,
Who doesn't care for me?
I played the game I was subject of, it was all in vain 'cause I fell in love
with someone,
Who doesn't care for me, for me.
I hate the game and what it costs, to feel the pain for the love I lost to
someone,
Who doesn't care for me.

Why should I even care for someone,
Who doesn't really care for me?
I'm not excited lovin' someone,
Who doesn't really care for me.

Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh ...
Ohhh, ohhh ...
Ohhh ...

Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh ...
Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh ...
Ohhh, ohhh ...

I've come to think that I never learn, it feels so bad 'cause I yearn and
yearn for someone,
Who doesn't care for me.
Why, oh why, oh why should I care for someone,
Who doesn't care for me?
Who doesn't care for me.
Who doesn't care for me.

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Heartbreaker

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Heartbreaker

Once I had a little girl, sometimes I think about her,
But, buddy, you know she's not really there.
When memories do call, I just, I just can't live without her
But tryin' all the time is so hard to bear.

[Chorus]
Heartbreaker, can't take her,
Heartbreaker, bringing me down.
Heartbreaker, can't take her,
Heartbreaker, bringing me down.

I don't cry no more, I live while I'm flying,
But I'll think back, and you can hear me say:

[Chorus x 3]

Heartbreaker, can't take her,
Heartbreaker, bringing me down.

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Memories

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Memories

I'm thinkin' 'bout my baby right now,
And I'm feelin' sentimental.
She's all I got in my memory,
But it really isn't accidental.


All I have are these memories,
Memories keep haunting me.
All I have are these memories,
Memories keep haunting me.


I think about her though she's gone from me,
And I want to get her back sincerely.
I pray to heaven she's alright tonight,
'cause you know I love her, lover her dearly.
But, ...


All I have is this lonely song,
Lonely song I'm singin' all night long.
All I have are these memories,
Memories keep haunting me.


Oooooo, oooooo, oooooo ...
Oooooo, oooooo, oooooo ...
Oooooo, oooooo, oooooo ...
Oh ...
Oooooo, oooooo, oooooo ...


All I have are these memories,
Memories keep haunting me.
All I have is this lonely song,
Lonely song I'm singin' all night long.
All I have are these memories,
Memories keep haunting me.
All I have is this lonely song,
Lonely song I'm singin' all night long.

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Nowhere To Run

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Nowhere To Run

Nowhere to run to, baby
I got nowhere to hide
I got nowhere to run to, baby
Nowhere to hide
It's not love that I'm runnin' from
It's the heartbreak I know will come
'Cause I know, you're no good for me
But you've become a part of me
Everywhere I go
Your face I see
Every step I take
You take with me, yeah
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide from you baby
I've got nowhere to run to, baby
Nowhere to hide
Now I know
You're no good for me
But free from you
I'll never be, no
Each night as I sleep
Into my heart you creep
I wake up feeling sorry I met you
Hoping soon that I'll forget you
When I look in the mirror
To comb my hair
I see your face
Just a-smilin' there
Nowhere to run to, baby
Nowhere to hide
I got nowhere to run to, baby
Nowhere to hide
Now I know
You're no good for me
But you've become
A part of me, now
How can I find a love
When it shouldn't be?
When it's so deep, it's so deep
Deep inside of me
Oh, reaches so high
I can't get over it
It's so wide
I can't get around it, no
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide from you, baby
I just can't get away from you baby
No matter how I try
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Nowhere to runnin' high

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Just Couldn't Wait

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Just Couldn't Wait

I miss her face, but the girl left seven years ago.
Guess I never should've let her go.
That's how I feel because I love her so.
But I'm afraid that she will never know.

She just couldn't wait, she said she couldn't wait 'til "some day."
She just couldn't wait, my baby just couldn't wait, no.
She said she couldn't wait 'til "some day," 'til "some day."

Oh, tell me now, where do the broken-hearted go from here.
You missed her love and now you're steering clear.
I ain't afraid of nothin' but my fear.
The fear that she might see this rollin' tear.

She just couldn't wait, she said she couldn't wait 'til sunday.
She just couldn't wait, my baby just couldn't wait, no.
She just couldn't wait, my baby just couldn't wait, no.

Oh she couldn't wait 'til Sunday no, 'til sunday.
She just couldn't wait, my baby just couldn't wait, no.
She said she couldn't wait 'til sunday.
She just couldn't wait, my baby just couldn't wait, no.
She said she just couldn't wait.
You know she just couldn't wait, no.
She said she couldn't wait 'til Sunday, 'til sunday.
Oh, oh...

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Walk Like A Man

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Walk Like A Man

Walk like a man
And talk like a man
Walk like a man baby
You can call me your man

A little girl asked me what am I gonna do
When I get old and blue and worn clear through
And I said by that time I'm gonna be in my prime
I'm gonna strut like a cock until I'm 99

I'm gonna walk like a man
And talk like a man
Walk like a man baby
You can call me your man

Sometimes I feel it's getting late
In life all that settling down can wait
Till my routine days all seem the same
Right now I've got to get on out
I've gotta make my day

I'm gonna walk like a man
And talk like a man
Walk like a man baby
You can call me your man

Walk like a man
And talk like a man
Walk like a man baby
You can call me your man

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Black Licorice

Whooo ... wheee!
You there, comin' up the stair, the feelin' is ice-blue cold.
Shake, it's more than I can take, I'm startin' to lose control.
Watch out, what's that noise, there's somebody at the door.
It must be black licorice, she come back to make me cry some more.

Time, ain't on my side, I'm losin' it more each day.
Licorice, licorice.
She's got evil in her eyes, and catnip is her taste.
Licorice, licorice.
She wraps me up in her slender legs, her hot black skin to mine.
Licorice, licorice.
Ple ... ple ...please, don't touch me, oh, I know I'm dead this time.

Oh, oh, yeah ... licorice, yeah, black licorice.
Licorice, licorice.
Licorice, yeah, black licorice.
Licorice, licorice.
Licorice, black licorice.

Licorice, woah, black licorice.

Oh I don't know now baby, just what it is you got.
But whatever it is now babe, I sure do like it a lot.
I like all the good things you gave me, baby late last night.
I like the things you been givin' me, oh mama now you're treatin' me right,

Chorus
Good things, good things, my baby's been treatin' me right.
Good things, good things happen to me every night.

Come a little bit closer baby, and rub off some of your stuff.
Until I holler and scream now baby, I just ain't had it enough.
Ain't had enough of the good things you gave me, baby late last night.
Ain't had enough of what you're givin' me, oh mama now you're treatin' me

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Dues

Lyrics Grand Funk Railroad - Dues

I think I'm headed for a terrible accident.
Made more plans than anyone who ever paid their rent.
I'm not stupid and I might be havin' too much pride.
Surgeon general has determined that I may as well die.

Jesus are you watching or have you gone blind.
Evil souls are upon us and we're surely runnin' out of time.

Chorus
I tried religion and some holy roller steals my tenth.
In the grave yard I ain't strong enough to jump the fence.
Some men they say they got more soul than both my shoes.
Makes me wonder can we ever stop payin' dues.

I might be workin' on a scene that I can never act.
Everybody's gonna think that my mind is cracked.
I don't care because it's my right to win or lose.
Makes me wonder can we ever stop payin' dues.

Crazy, am I crazy for wanting so much more.
My mind says I can't ever give up but I still can't be sure.

Chorus

Can we ever stop payin' dues.
Can we ever stop payin' dues.
Can we ever stop payin' dues.
