Les Paroles :
Ah I feel a fountain in my brain, Ice-cold water runnin' through my pain
Got a bad taste in my mouth from bitter tears, Heart so sad 'cause love's gone bad
I see a rainbow all in black, Must be a sign that you ain't comin' back
Wake up at night callin' your name, I see a face on my window pane
I've been this way since you've been gone, Without your love I can't go on
Look in the mirror, what do I see?, A cryin' face, kinda looks like me
Now where's the love you promised me?, Where's he tenderness to comfort me?
Everytime some love I choose, I seem to always be the one to lose, Bad taste in my mouth from bitter tears
Heart fells sad 'cause love's gone bad, Love's gone bad, heart fells bad
Black crows flying up above, It's a sign that I live life without love
Slime's on the man, slime's ont the sea, Slime's everywhere I said I'm destined to be
And this world where nothing's right, Since you've been gone I can't sleep at night
You said you'd be true to me, Instead you made a fool out of me
Heart feels sad, love's gone bad

Les paroles :
(Yeah) I admit you got the biggest brown eyes
And you know how to part your lips to tantalize, sure
(Yeah) You can get any man you want goin' and you do it
And don't say you don't know you do
[Chorus:]
Well, baby, I ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
I ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
So quit it
[Bridge:]
I love you, I love you, I do, little girl
But you ain't gonna cheat on me
I need you, I need you, I really do, girl
Choose, is it him or me (is it him or me)
(Yeah) Just 'cause I ain't been sayin' it, girl
You should be ashamed of what I've been seein' - bad
(Yeah) You better watch your step or, girl
You can bet you're gonna lose the best thing you ever had
I ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore [repeat to fade]

Les paroles :
I was born in Lil' Rock,
Had a childhood sweetheart,
We were always hand in hand.
I was hightop shoes and shirt tails,
Suzy was in pig tails,
I know I loved her even then.
You know my papa disapproved it,
My mama boohooed it,
But I told them time and time again,
"Don't you know I was made to love her,
Built a world all around her"
Yah! Hey, hey, hey.
She's been my inspiration,
Showed appreciation
For the love I gave her through the years.
Like a sweet magnolia tree
My love blossmed tenderly,
My life grew sweeter through the years.
I know that my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
That's why we made it through the years.
I was made to love her,
Worship and adore her,
Hey, hey, hey.
All through thick and thin
Our love just won't end,
'Cause I love my baby, love my baby. Ah!
My baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
And I know I ain't going nowhere.
I was knee high to a chicken
When that love bug bit me,
I had the fever with each passing year.
Oh, even if the mountain tumbles,
If this whole world crumbles,
By her side I'll still be standing there.
'Cause I was made to love her,
I was made to live for her, yeah!
Ah, I was made to love her,
Built my world all around her,
Hey, hey, hey.
Oo baby, I was made to please her,
You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her, no,
Hey, hey, hey.
Oo wee baby, my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
Hey, hey, hey.

Les paroles :
Girl you got me dizzy
You put me on a merry-go-round
While my heart was spinning
You are somewhere else messing around
When we are together
I think that I am your only prize
You change like the weather
A little heartbraker in disguise
Riding on a ferris-wheel
Is the way I wanna feel
But I am standing in a line
And I can at get a ticket to ride
Pretty little Penny
You are spending all the love I make
'til there isn't any
You play your games
Penny Arcade
Hey girl come on down
Get your feet back off the ground
Together baby we can ride
Come on honey don't hide
Pretty little Penny
You are spending all the love I make
'til there isn't any
You play your games
Penny Arcade
Girl you make believing
You tell me candy covered lies
I'm the one you needing
Forget about the other guys
I know how you got this name baby
You were playing fun and games
Playing fun and games
I was busy as a bee [busy busy]
Honey take care of your business with me
If you keep lying [better slow down a baby]
You'll wake up crying
Pretty, pretty little baby
You're spending all the love I make
'til there ins't any
You play your games
