My Lonely Sad Eyes
I Can Only Give You Everything
Could You, Would You
The Story of Them
When friends were friends
And company was right
We'd talk and talk and sing
All through the night.
Morning came leisurely and bright
Downtown we'd walk
And passers by
Would shudder with delight
Mmmmmm!
Good times...
All the cats were there
Just dirty enough to say
"We don't care."
But the management had had complaints
About some cats with long long
hair
"Look look look"
And the people'd stare
"Why, you won't be allowed in
anywhere"
Barred from pubs and clubs and
dancehalls
Made the scene at the Spanish
rooms
at the falls
And man, four pints of that
scrumpy was
enough to have you
Out of your mind.
Climbing up the walls
Out of your mind
But it was a gas, all the same
Now just around about this time
with
the help of the three J's
Started playin' at the Maritime.
That's Jerry, Jerry and Jimmy
You know they were always fine
They helped us run the Maritime.
And don't forget Kit
Hitting people on the head and
knockin' them out
You know he did his best and
all
Was something else...
Now people say, who are
Or what are Them
That little one sings and that
big
one plays the guitar with
a thumble on his finger runs
it up
and down the strings
The bass player don't shave
much
I think they're all a little
bit
touched
But the people came
And that's how we made our name
Too much it was
Yeah, good times
Wild, sweaty, crude, ugly
And mad.
And sometimes just a little
bit sad
Yeah, they sneered and all
But up there, we just havin'
a ball
It was a gas, you know
Some good times...
We are the Them take it or leave
it
You know they took it
It kept coming
And we worked for the people
Sweet sweat
And the misty misty atmosphere
Gimme another drink of beer
baby
Gotta get goin' here...
Blues come rollin'
Down all your avenue
Won't stop at the city hall
Just a few steps away
You can look up at
Maritime hotel
Just a little bit sad
Gotta walk away
Wish it well...
Don't Start Crying Now
You ain't ever had to cry baby
don't start crying now
You ain't ever had to cry baby
don't start crying now
You Never did it before
Don't do you no good no how
Cry, cry baby cry, cry all night long
Cry, cry baby cry, cry all night long
You gonna wake up in the morning
And find your good man gone
You got a fine women
Take one look at mine
You got a fine women
Take one look at mine
She the sweetest and the neatest
And we make love all the time
Cry, cry baby cry, cry all night long
Cry, cry baby cry, cry all night long
You gonna wake up in the morning
And find your good man gone
Well I sent for you yesterday
Here you come walking today
Got your mouth wide open
Don't know what to say
Cry, cry baby cry, cry all night long
Cry, cry baby cry, cry all night long
You gonna wake up in the morning
And find your good man gone

I Gave My Love A Diamond
I gave my love a diamond, a
ten cent stone,
I gave her lonely teardrops
and nights alone.
I gave my love a promise that
had no truth,
What good is a promise without
no truth ?
I gave my love a fortune in
silver and gold,
I gave it to her lie by lie
by lie by lie that I had told.
I gave my love a story that
had no end,
What good is a story that's
got no end ? Tell me.
I wrote her that we'd get married
in about one year's time.
I wrote her in a boxcar on the
Memphis line.
I sent my love a letter without
no stamp - ha!
And what good is a letter without
no stamp ?
Goodbye baby,

If You And I Could Be
As Two

leaves were on the ground.
It kicked my heart when I saw
you standing there in your dress of blue.

All the good times we had together
Walking through the park
Baby, then, then we could sing,
Gave you all my money,
Everything in the world that
I had,
You told me that don't mean
a thing.
If still in darkness we could
run
Together there in that morning
sun
I'd give my all, my life and
everything to you, oh yeah,

be as two.
Could be as two, could be as
