Fast As You Streets of Bakersfield Pocket of a Clown
Inside the pocket of a clown Is a sad place to hang around Just watching smiles turn into frowns Inside the pocket of a clown Inside the heartache of a fool You'll learn things they don't teach in school And lessons there can be real cruel Inside the heartache of a fool Hollow lies Make a thin disguise As little drops of truth Fall from your eyes Hollow lies Make a thin disguise As little drops of truth Fall from your eyes Inside a memory from the past Lies every love that didn't last And sweet dreams can start to fade real fast Inside a memory from the past Yeah, it's a real sad place to hang around Inside the pocket of a clown |
Guitars and Cadillacs Ain't That Lonely Yet Little Ways
You've got your little ways to hurt me You know just how to tear me up And leave me in small pieces on the ground You've got your little ways to hurt me They're not too big but they're real tough Just one cold look from you can knock me down To look at you and me, no one would ever know The pain that I've endured 'cause I won't let it show My friends would laugh out loud if they only knew The truth about how I am just your lovesick fool 'Cause you've got your little ways to hurt me You know just how to tear me up And leave me in small pieces on the ground And you've got your little ways to hurt me They're not too big but they're real tough Just one cold look from you can knock me down The sadness in my eyes should somehow be a clue But no one here would ever suspect sweet little you There've been rumors of the truth but I've kept it quiet 'Cause I'm too ashamed to let them know you make me cry And you've got your little ways to hurt me You know just how to tear me up And leave me in small pieces on the ground You've got your little ways to hurt me They're not too big but they're real tough Just one cold look from you can knock me down Yeah, your little ways can knock me to the ground |
