Everlasting Light Lyrics – The Black Keys
Let me be your everlasting light
The sun when there is none
I'm a shepherd for you
And I'll guide you through
Let me be your evelasting light
Let me be your everlasting light
I'll hold and never scold
In me you can confide
When no one's by your side
Let me be your everlasting light
Oh darling, can't you see
I'm shining just for you
Loneliness is over
Dark days are through
Let me be your everlasting light
A train going away from pain
Love is the coal
That makes this train roll
Let me be your everlasting light
The sun when there is none
I'm a shepherd for you
And I'll guide you through
Let me be your evelasting light
Let me be your everlasting light
I'll hold and never scold
In me you can confide
When no one's by your side
Let me be your everlasting light
Oh darling, can't you see
I'm shining just for you
Loneliness is over
Dark days are through
Let me be your everlasting light
A train going away from pain
Love is the coal
That makes this train roll
Let me be your everlasting light
Next Girl Lyrics – The Black Keys
The look of the cake
It ain't always the taste
My ex girl she had
Such a beautiful face
I wanted love
But not for myself
But for the girl
So she could love herself
My next girl
Will be nothing like my ex girl
I made mistakes back then
I'll never do it again
With my next girl
She'll be nothing like my ex girl
That was a painful dance
Now I got a second chance
A beautiful face
And a wicked way
And I'm paying for her
Beautiful face every day
All that work
Over so much time If I think too hard
I might lose my mind
My next girl
Will be nothing like my ex girl
I made mistakes back then
I'll never do it again
With my next girl
She'll be nothing like my ex girl
That was a painful dance
Now I got a second chance
It ain't always the taste
My ex girl she had
Such a beautiful face
I wanted love
But not for myself
But for the girl
So she could love herself
My next girl
Will be nothing like my ex girl
I made mistakes back then
I'll never do it again
With my next girl
She'll be nothing like my ex girl
That was a painful dance
Now I got a second chance
A beautiful face
And a wicked way
And I'm paying for her
Beautiful face every day
All that work
Over so much time If I think too hard
I might lose my mind
My next girl
Will be nothing like my ex girl
I made mistakes back then
I'll never do it again
With my next girl
She'll be nothing like my ex girl
That was a painful dance
Now I got a second chance
Tighten Up Lyrics – The Black Keys
I wanted love, I needed love,
Most of all, most of all
Someone said true love was dead
And I'm bound to fall, bound to fall
For you
But what can I do?
Take my badge but my heart remains
Lovin' you, baby child
Tighten up on your reigns
You're runnin' wild, runnin' wild
It's true
Sick for days in so many ways
I'm achin' now, I'm achin' now
It's times like these I need relief
Please show me how, show me how
To get right
When I was young and moving fast
Nothing slowed me down, slowed me down
Now I let the others pass
I've come around, come around
Living just to keep going
Going just to stay sane
All the while never knowing
It's such a shame
I don't need to get steady
I know just how I feel
I'm telling you to get ready
My dear
Most of all, most of all
Someone said true love was dead
And I'm bound to fall, bound to fall
For you
But what can I do?
Take my badge but my heart remains
Lovin' you, baby child
Tighten up on your reigns
You're runnin' wild, runnin' wild
It's true
Sick for days in so many ways
I'm achin' now, I'm achin' now
It's times like these I need relief
Please show me how, show me how
To get right
When I was young and moving fast
Nothing slowed me down, slowed me down
Now I let the others pass
I've come around, come around
Living just to keep going
Going just to stay sane
All the while never knowing
It's such a shame
I don't need to get steady
I know just how I feel
I'm telling you to get ready
My dear
Howlin' For You Lyrics – The Black Keys
I must admit
I can't explain
All these thoughts racing
Through my brain
It's true
Baby I'm howlin' for you
There's something wrong
With this plot
The actors here
Have not got
A clue
Baby I'm howlin' for you
Mockingbird
Can't you see
The little girl's
Got a hold on me
Like glue
Baby I'm howlin' for you
Throw the ball
To the stick
Swing and miss
In the catcher's mitt
Strike two
Baby I'm howlin' for you
I can't explain
All these thoughts racing
Through my brain
It's true
Baby I'm howlin' for you
There's something wrong
With this plot
The actors here
Have not got
A clue
Baby I'm howlin' for you
Mockingbird
Can't you see
The little girl's
Got a hold on me
Like glue
Baby I'm howlin' for you
Throw the ball
To the stick
Swing and miss
In the catcher's mitt
Strike two
Baby I'm howlin' for you
She's Long Gone Lyrics – The Black Keys
She was made to blow you away
She don't care what any man say
You can watch her strut
But keep your mouth shut
Or it's ruination day
She's long, long gone
She's long gone like
Moses through the corn
Her eyes are rubies and pearls
And she's not made like those other girls
Her lashes flap and they smack men back
Like springs they bounce off of her curls
She's long, long gone
She's long gone like
Moses through the corn
She don't care what any man say
You can watch her strut
But keep your mouth shut
Or it's ruination day
She's long, long gone
She's long gone like
Moses through the corn
Her eyes are rubies and pearls
And she's not made like those other girls
Her lashes flap and they smack men back
Like springs they bounce off of her curls
She's long, long gone
She's long gone like
Moses through the corn
The Only One Lyrics – The Black Keys
Can't explain
Nor can I contain
Control
You have on my soul
It's all I do I
s baby dream of you
I'm falling down
When you're around
You're the only one
You're the only one
I'm so wrapped up in a daze
Hoping this is just a faze
But when all is said and done
I know you are still the one
You're the only one
You're the only one
Cupid's bow it stung
Now you're the only one
Mystery
Is what this is to me
I'm giving up
I'm having no luck
Like a ghost
The one that I love most
She disappears
When I get near
Nor can I contain
Control
You have on my soul
It's all I do I
s baby dream of you
I'm falling down
When you're around
You're the only one
You're the only one
I'm so wrapped up in a daze
Hoping this is just a faze
But when all is said and done
I know you are still the one
You're the only one
You're the only one
Cupid's bow it stung
Now you're the only one
Mystery
Is what this is to me
I'm giving up
I'm having no luck
Like a ghost
The one that I love most
She disappears
When I get near
Too Afraid To Love You Lyrics – The Black Keys
My gears they grind
More each day
And I feel like
They're gonna grind away
And the city blocks
They drive me wild
They're never ending
Mile after mile
I just don't know what to do
I'm too afraid to love you
It's heaven on earth
In her embrace
Her gentle touch
And her smiling face
I'm just one wishing
That I was a pair
With someone
Oh somewhere
All those sleepless nights
And all those wasted days
I wish loneliness would leave me
But I think he's here to stay
What more can I do
I'm wringing myself dry
And I can't afford to lose
One more teardrop from my eye
More each day
And I feel like
They're gonna grind away
And the city blocks
They drive me wild
They're never ending
Mile after mile
I just don't know what to do
I'm too afraid to love you
It's heaven on earth
In her embrace
Her gentle touch
And her smiling face
I'm just one wishing
That I was a pair
With someone
Oh somewhere
All those sleepless nights
And all those wasted days
I wish loneliness would leave me
But I think he's here to stay
What more can I do
I'm wringing myself dry
And I can't afford to lose
One more teardrop from my eye
Ten Cent Pistol Lyrics – The Black Keys
Well, he ran around
Late at night
Holding hands
And making light
Of everything
That came before
But there she was
Behind the door
She hit them with her ten cent pistol
Because they ruined her name
Well, she hit them with her ten cent pistol
And they've never been the same
There's nothing worse
In this world
Than payback from a
Jealous girl
The laws of man
Don't apply
When blood gets in
A woman's eye
Well, she hit them with her ten cent pistol
Because they ruined her name
Well, she hit them with her ten cent pistol
And they've never been the same
Stars did fall
Thunder rolled
Bugs crawled back
In their holes
The couple screamed
But far too late
Cause a jealous heart
Did retaliate
She hit them with her ten cent pistol
Because they ruined her name
Well, she hit them with her ten cent pistol
And they've never been the same
Late at night
Holding hands
And making light
Of everything
That came before
But there she was
Behind the door
She hit them with her ten cent pistol
Because they ruined her name
Well, she hit them with her ten cent pistol
And they've never been the same
There's nothing worse
In this world
Than payback from a
Jealous girl
The laws of man
Don't apply
When blood gets in
A woman's eye
Well, she hit them with her ten cent pistol
Because they ruined her name
Well, she hit them with her ten cent pistol
And they've never been the same
Stars did fall
Thunder rolled
Bugs crawled back
In their holes
The couple screamed
But far too late
Cause a jealous heart
Did retaliate
She hit them with her ten cent pistol
Because they ruined her name
Well, she hit them with her ten cent pistol
And they've never been the same
Sinister Kid Lyrics – The Black Keys
Well, the crooks are out
And the streets are gray
You know I wouldn't have it
Any other way
Your mother's words
They're ringing still
But your mother don't
Pay our bills
A sinister kid is a kid who
Runs to meet his Maker
A drop dead sprint from the day he's born
Straight into his Maker's arms
And that's me, that's me
The boy with the broken halo
That's me, that's me
The devil won't let me be
I got a tortured mind
And my blade is sharp
A bad combination
In the dark
If I kill a man
In the first degree
Baby would you
Flee with me?
A sinister kid is a kid who
Runs to meet his Maker
A drop dead sprint from the day he's born
Straight into his Maker's arms
And that's me, that's me
The boy with the broken halo
That's me, that's me
The devil won't let me be
And the streets are gray
You know I wouldn't have it
Any other way
Your mother's words
They're ringing still
But your mother don't
Pay our bills
A sinister kid is a kid who
Runs to meet his Maker
A drop dead sprint from the day he's born
Straight into his Maker's arms
And that's me, that's me
The boy with the broken halo
That's me, that's me
The devil won't let me be
I got a tortured mind
And my blade is sharp
A bad combination
In the dark
If I kill a man
In the first degree
Baby would you
Flee with me?
A sinister kid is a kid who
Runs to meet his Maker
A drop dead sprint from the day he's born
Straight into his Maker's arms
And that's me, that's me
The boy with the broken halo
That's me, that's me
The devil won't let me be
The Go Getter Lyrics – The Black Keys
The Go Getter
I'll be the Go Getter
Yes I am
I'll be the Go Getter
That's my plan
The Go Getter
Hi-fi boom box
Pretty girl in bobby socks
Afterparty in a hotel room
Pretty soon there will be no moon
Stumble home in the pouring rain
Let the water ease my worried brain
Some days I just can't get alone
I need a head to lean my shoulders on
Palm trees
The flat broke disease
And L.A. has got me
On my knees
I am
The bluest of blues
Every day
A different
Different way to lose
The Go Getter
The Go Getter
The Go Getter
I got a table at the Rainbow Room
I told my wife I'd be home soon
Big ships are approaching the docks
I got my hi-fi boom box
Mashed potatoes in cellophane
I see my life going down the drain
Hold me baby and don't let go
Pretty girls help to soften the blow
Palm trees
The flat broke disease
And LA has got me
On my knees
I am
The bluest of blues
Every day
A different way to lose
The Go Getter
The Go Getter
The Go Getter
I'll be the Go Getter
That's my plan
That's who I am
The Go Getter
Yeah the Go Getter
I'll be the Go Getter
Yes I am

That's my plan

Stumble home in the pouring rain

I'm Not The One Lyrics – The Black Keys
I've been tried
And I've been tested
I was born tired
And I never got rested
Harder than Marble stone
I'm better off Better off left alone
Cause I'm not the one
No I'm not the one
You wanted it all
But I'll give you none
Cause, I'm not the one
Well, like a toy
To a kid
I said jump
And mama you did
You know, your daddy knows
And your mama knows
That's wrong
So now it's time
For me to move on
Cause I'm not the one
No I'm not the one
You wanted it all
But I'll give you none
Cause, I'm not the one
You think
That I'm normal
But all these years
I'm just trying to warn you
You'd do good
To move on
No it won't
Hurt me none
Cause I'm not the one
No I'm not the one
You wanted it all
But I'll give you none
Cause, I'm not the one
And I've been tested

And I never got rested
Harder than Marble stone
I'm better off Better off left alone
Cause I'm not the one
No I'm not the one
You wanted it all
But I'll give you none
Cause, I'm not the one
Well, like a toy
To a kid

And mama you did
You know, your daddy knows
And your mama knows

Cause I'm not the one
No I'm not the one
You wanted it all
But I'll give you none
Cause, I'm not the one
Unknown Brother Lyrics – The Black Keys
Though I never met you
And we spoke not a word
I'll never forget you
Through stories that I've heard
For you unknown brother
My baby's mother is pained
Cause your soul is in heaven
But your memory remains
Unknown, unknown brother
I'll meet you someday
Unknown, unknown brother
We'll walk through fields where children play
Your eyes shined bright
When you were a kid
Your sisters loved you
And all that you did
Big brother, big brother
Don't worry a bit
Your flame has not faded
Since the day it was lit
Your life
Was joy
Your mama's
Only boy
And when the skies
Are blue
Big brother
They're blue for you
We'll smile like pictures
Of you as a boy
Long before you retired
To heavenly joy

Never gonna give you up
No matter how you treat me

These Days Lyrics – The Black Keys
My hand to God
I didn't mean to
After all
Look what we've been through
Men come in different shades
That's how we're made
The little house on Ellis Drive
Is where I felt most alive
The oak tree covered that old Ford
I miss it Lord, I miss it Lord
These blood red eyes
Don't see so good
But what's worse is if they could
Would I change my ways?
Wasted times and broken dreams
Violent colors so obscene
It's all I see these days
These days
Watch what you say
The devil is listenin'
He's got ears that you
Wouldn't believe
And brother once you go to him
It's your soul you can never retrieve
These blood red eyes
Don't see so good
But what's worse is if they could
Would I change my ways?
Wasted times and broken dreams
Violent colors so obscene
It's all I see these days
These days
I didn't mean to
After all
Look what we've been through
Men come in different shades
That's how we're made
The little house on Ellis Drive
Is where I felt most alive
The oak tree covered that old Ford
I miss it Lord, I miss it Lord
These blood red eyes
Don't see so good
But what's worse is if they could
Would I change my ways?
Wasted times and broken dreams
Violent colors so obscene
It's all I see these days
These days
Watch what you say
The devil is listenin'
He's got ears that you
Wouldn't believe
And brother once you go to him
It's your soul you can never retrieve
These blood red eyes
Don't see so good
But what's worse is if they could
Would I change my ways?
Wasted times and broken dreams
Violent colors so obscene
It's all I see these days

All You Ever Wanted Lyrics – The Black Keys
Ain't it just like dyin'
'Cept you can still feel the same
All hands on deck now
The sea is gettin' rough again
You see him out your window
Even when you close the blinds
And all you ever wanted
Was someone to treat you nice and kind
Take a step before runnin'
Take a breath now before you dive
When you work the streets, darlin'
Make sure your sneaker laces, they get tied
I'll be your black bird, darlin'
Hangin' on your telephone wire
Flap my wings on it
And set your heart afire
'Cept you can still feel the same
All hands on deck now
The sea is gettin' rough again
You see him out your window
Even when you close the blinds
And all you ever wanted
Was someone to treat you nice and kind
Take a step before runnin'
Take a breath now before you dive
When you work the streets, darlin'
Make sure your sneaker laces, they get tied
I'll be your black bird, darlin'
Hangin' on your telephone wire
Flap my wings on it
And set your heart afire
I Got Mine Lyrics – The Black Keys
Yeah!
I was a movin' man in my younger days
But I've grown out of my ramblin' ways
I left that road so far behind
Now I know, oh baby
I got mine
I got mine
I got mine
Oh baby, I got mine
So baby when I rolled, I rolled deep
So much so, I didn't get much sleep
Rock and roll hustle all the time
Now I know, oh baby
I got mine
I got mine
I got mine
Oh baby, I got mine
Whoa, I got mine
I got mine
I got mine
Oh baby, I got mine
Hey~ey
I was a movin' man in my younger days
But I've grown out of my ramblin' ways
I left that road so far behind
Now I know, oh baby
I got mine
I got mine
I got mine
Oh baby, I got mine
So baby when I rolled, I rolled deep
So much so, I didn't get much sleep
Rock and roll hustle all the time
Now I know, oh baby
I got mine
I got mine
I got mine
Oh baby, I got mine
Whoa, I got mine
I got mine
I got mine
Oh baby, I got mine
Hey~ey
Strange Times Lyrics – The Black Keys
Kings and sons of God
Travel on their way from here
Calming restless mobs
Easing all of their, all of their fear
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Statue in the square
Meant so much when it first stood
People come from far and near
To bless them if, bless them if it would
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Sadie, dry your tears
I will be the one
To pull you through the mere
Before you come, before you come undone
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Travel on their way from here
Calming restless mobs
Easing all of their, all of their fear
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Statue in the square
Meant so much when it first stood
People come from far and near
To bless them if, bless them if it would
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Sadie, dry your tears
I will be the one
To pull you through the mere
Before you come, before you come undone
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Psychotic Girl Lyrics – The Black Keys
I heard you threw your man around
Pick him up just to let him down
It's a shame, baby, but I always knew
Just the way you're gonna do, oh
Oh no
Just a psychotic girl
And I won't get lost in your world
Friday night in the party lights
You were acting like everything was alright
Till later on with no one around
Had me fighting for air, laying on the ground, oh no
Oh no
Just a psychotic girl
And I won't get lost in your world
I thought you'd changed, but I should've known
You'd play nice for a time and then you do me wrong
I thought long and hard 'bout what I should I say
And when I was through it just came out this way, oh no
Oh no
Just a psychotic girl
And I won't get lost in your world
Pick him up just to let him down
It's a shame, baby, but I always knew
Just the way you're gonna do, oh
Oh no
Just a psychotic girl
And I won't get lost in your world
Friday night in the party lights
You were acting like everything was alright
Till later on with no one around
Had me fighting for air, laying on the ground, oh no
Oh no
Just a psychotic girl
And I won't get lost in your world
I thought you'd changed, but I should've known
You'd play nice for a time and then you do me wrong
I thought long and hard 'bout what I should I say
And when I was through it just came out this way, oh no
Oh no
Just a psychotic girl
And I won't get lost in your world
Lies Lyrics – The Black Keys
You said the moon was ours
Yeah, you said the moon was ours
To hell with the day
The sunlight is only gonna take love away
Raise up suspicions and...and alibis
But I can see through tear-blinded eyes
Lies, lies, lies
Oh, lies
Da da da da da
Oh~oh~oh
I got a stone where my heart should be
I got a stone where my heart should be
And nothin' I do will make you love me
I'll leave this town break all my ties
There'd be no more use for any disguise
Lies, lies, lies
Oh, lies
Da da ahh~ahh~ahh
Oh~oh~oh
I wanna die without pain, yeah
I wanna die, oh, without pain
All this deception I just can't maintain
The sun, moon, stars in the sky
It'd hurt me too bad if you said goodbye
Lies, lies, lies
Oh~ooh-ooh, lies
Da da da da da
Oh~oh~oh
Yeah, you said the moon was ours
To hell with the day
The sunlight is only gonna take love away
Raise up suspicions and...and alibis
But I can see through tear-blinded eyes
Lies, lies, lies
Oh, lies
Da da da da da
Oh~oh~oh
I got a stone where my heart should be
I got a stone where my heart should be
And nothin' I do will make you love me
I'll leave this town break all my ties
There'd be no more use for any disguise
Lies, lies, lies
Oh, lies
Da da ahh~ahh~ahh
Oh~oh~oh
I wanna die without pain, yeah
I wanna die, oh, without pain
All this deception I just can't maintain
The sun, moon, stars in the sky
It'd hurt me too bad if you said goodbye
Lies, lies, lies
Oh~ooh-ooh, lies
Da da da da da
Oh~oh~oh
Remember When (Side A) Lyrics – The Black Keys
It happened when I heard her name
Same old thoughts crept back again
Oh and grew, they grew
And somewhere in my...my sorry state
Lightning struck that old iron gate
It's true...yes, it's true
With snow in tow, the winter winds
Smacks you on your cheeks again
Oh, it stings, mmm, it stings
Mmm
Oh, oh
Ahh~ahh
Same old thoughts crept back again
Oh and grew, they grew
And somewhere in my...my sorry state
Lightning struck that old iron gate
It's true...yes, it's true
With snow in tow, the winter winds
Smacks you on your cheeks again
Oh, it stings, mmm, it stings
Mmm
Oh, oh
Ahh~ahh

Same Old Thing Lyrics – The Black Keys
It don't matter where you've been
The people try to do you in
Every day till dawn
There's some thievin' goin' on
Oh, oh no
Hurt me so
Just the same old thing
Just the same old thing
No matter how much love you try to bring
Just the same old thing
You got a callous heart
From being torn apart
Now you labor every day
Love life drifts away
Oh, oh no
It hurts me so
Just the same old thing
Just the same old thing
No matter how much love you try to bring
Just the same old thing
The people try to do you in
Every day till dawn
There's some thievin' goin' on
Oh, oh no
Hurt me so
Just the same old thing
Just the same old thing
No matter how much love you try to bring
Just the same old thing
You got a callous heart
From being torn apart
Now you labor every day
Love life drifts away
Oh, oh no
It hurts me so
Just the same old thing
Just the same old thing
No matter how much love you try to bring
Just the same old thing
So He Won't Break Lyrics – The Black Keys
Gone like the wind
And the state it put him in
To hold his head high
When he really wan' die
And you know the difference it makes
And you know all that it takes
Is love, so he won't break
He won't break
He's crazy from the pain
And can't get hurt again
And if he ever falls
I'd feel sorry for us all
And you know the difference it makes
And you know all that it takes
Is love, so he won't break
He won't break
Won't break, he won't break
Right around the way
Is where they go to pay
For remedies and pills
To ease their ills
And you know the difference it makes
And you know all that it takes
Is love, so he won't break
He won't break
Won't break
He won't break
And the state it put him in
To hold his head high
When he really wan' die
And you know the difference it makes
And you know all that it takes
Is love, so he won't break
He won't break
He's crazy from the pain
And can't get hurt again
And if he ever falls
I'd feel sorry for us all
And you know the difference it makes
And you know all that it takes
Is love, so he won't break
He won't break
Won't break, he won't break
Right around the way
Is where they go to pay
For remedies and pills
To ease their ills
And you know the difference it makes
And you know all that it takes
Is love, so he won't break
He won't break
Won't break
He won't break
Oceans & Streams Lyrics – The Black Keys
With guilt that no man should carry
Heavy enough for me to get buried
I feel death on the road tonight
It's got me to where I wanna run and hide
Oh, I used to dream
Of oceans and streams
Flowing and growing strong
Where have all those days gone?
These days I'm so slow
All those thoughts and nowhere to go
My aim it used to be so true
My world had a place in it darlin', just for you
Oh, I used to dream
Of oceans and streams
Flowing and growing strong
Where have all those days gone?
'Scuse me, now, I gotta go
Can't stand to be here anymore, no
I'm sick and I gotta go to bed
If I stay now, I'm better off dead
Oh, I used to dream
Of oceans and streams
Flowing and growing strong
Where have all those days gone?
Heavy enough for me to get buried
I feel death on the road tonight
It's got me to where I wanna run and hide
Oh, I used to dream
Of oceans and streams
Flowing and growing strong
Where have all those days gone?
These days I'm so slow
All those thoughts and nowhere to go
My aim it used to be so true
My world had a place in it darlin', just for you
Oh, I used to dream
Of oceans and streams
Flowing and growing strong
Where have all those days gone?
'Scuse me, now, I gotta go
Can't stand to be here anymore, no
I'm sick and I gotta go to bed
If I stay now, I'm better off dead
Oh, I used to dream
Of oceans and streams
Flowing and growing strong
Where have all those days gone?
Things Ain't Like They Used to Be Lyrics – The Black Keys
I went around the way for you
Did all those things you asked me to
I thought it was the perfect day
Till she just opened up to say
It doesn't mean a thing to me
It doesn't mean a thing to me
And it's about time you see
Things ain't like they used to be
I headed out to Lester Hill
But that just made me weaker still
She's got the kind of love I need
The kind that's never good on me
It doesn't mean a thing to me
It doesn't mean a thing to me
And it's about time you see
Things ain't like they used to be
I walked into the battle blind
It happens almost all the time
The yard is kind of overgrown
And all those happy times are gone
It doesn't mean a thing to me
It doesn't mean a thing to me
And it's about time you see
That things ain't like they used to be
It doesn't mean a thing to me, oh
It doesn't mean a thing to me
And it's about time you see
Things ain't like they used to be
Did all those things you asked me to
I thought it was the perfect day
Till she just opened up to say
It doesn't mean a thing to me
It doesn't mean a thing to me
And it's about time you see
Things ain't like they used to be
I headed out to Lester Hill
But that just made me weaker still
She's got the kind of love I need
The kind that's never good on me
It doesn't mean a thing to me
It doesn't mean a thing to me
And it's about time you see
Things ain't like they used to be
I walked into the battle blind
It happens almost all the time
The yard is kind of overgrown
And all those happy times are gone
It doesn't mean a thing to me
It doesn't mean a thing to me
And it's about time you see
That things ain't like they used to be
It doesn't mean a thing to me, oh
It doesn't mean a thing to me
And it's about time you see
Things ain't like they used to be
Just Got To Be Lyrics – The Black Keys
When it come to pride,
And other sinful matters,
You're gonna be mislead,
Left there in tatters,
I got to go because,
Something's on my mind,
And I won't get better,
No matter how hard I try,
Whoa...yeah,
You just got to be,
The best thing for me,
Evil hides,
In dark places,
But now I find it,
In familiar faces,
I got to go because,
Something's on my mind,
And I won't get better,
No matter how hard I try,
Whoa...yeah,
You just got to be,
The best thing for me.
And other sinful matters,
You're gonna be mislead,
Left there in tatters,
I got to go because,
Something's on my mind,
And I won't get better,
No matter how hard I try,
Whoa...yeah,
You just got to be,
The best thing for me,
Evil hides,
In dark places,
But now I find it,
In familiar faces,
I got to go because,
Something's on my mind,
And I won't get better,
No matter how hard I try,
Whoa...yeah,
You just got to be,
The best thing for me.

Give Your Heart Away Lyrics – The Black Keys
Follow you down,
Hold your hand,
Make you realize,
I'm the only man,
Who got the will,
And the way,
To be the one to give my heart away, yeah,
Yeah...right...oh,
Late at night,
When you lay,
In the bed,
That I made,
Who will heed,
Your dismay,
And be the one to give their heart away?
Oh...yeah...right,
I'm long gone,
In outer space,
With no one here,
Gonna take my place,
So bye-bye, baby,
I've gone away,
And no one there will give their heart away, yeah,
Oh...right...oh,
Right...no.
Hold your hand,

Modern Times Lyrics – The Black Keys
They're gonna get to it tomorrow,
But they don't care at all,
They're gonna ease your pain and sorrow,
But we heard the same before,
All my lovin' friends,
Takin' nothin' home,
And I can't be the one,
To lay troubles on,
All their homes are broken,
And what are they gonna do?
There's no magic potion,
Their lyin' days are through,
Love and lust,
Go hand-in-hand,
Everything turn to dust,
In our promised land,
Take the well-dressed man,
And watch him pass you by,
Work your life away,
Makes me wanna cry,
In these modern times,
Oh...oh...oh,
I'm gonna scream it on a mountain,
To every valley wide,
It's all your money they're countin',
And to your face they lie,
Put on your workboots, mama,
And your morning gown,
Twelve men dead today,
They're already in the ground,
See the well-dressed man,
Watch him pass you by,
Work your life away,
Make me wanna cry,
In these modern times,
In these modern times,
In these modern times,
Oh.
But they don't care at all,
They're gonna ease your pain and sorrow,

The Flame Lyrics – The Black Keys
Out of all the things,
You've ever done,
This time I can't go back,
When a heart gets broke,
This many times,
It's easy to lose track,
Takin' all this pain,
And you know I can't regain,
The flame,
Oh, the flame,
Like a dream to me,
Time with you,
So unreal,
Maybe another life,
Love for me,
Is what you feel,
Takin' all this pain,
And you know I can't regain,
The flame, oh,
Greater men made it here,
Only to turn back,
So cut me loose, if you want,
Or tighten up the slack,
Takin' all this pain,
And you know we can't regain,
The flame,
Oh, the flame,
Yeah...oh.
You've ever done,
This time I can't go back,

And I get seasick,
On dry land,
And I hear voices,
Sayin' "Do what you can,"
Hold tight,
Hold on,

That the choice is mine,
Hold tight,

When The Lights Go Out Lyrics – The Black Keys
Don't it hurt so bad,
Standin' in the sun,
The bottom of your heart,
You don't love no one,
You can be,
Oh, so mean,
I just can't see,
No in-between,
You know what the sun's all about,
When the lights go out,
What a way to live,
Back of your class,
The end of the line--
You're always last,
You can be,
Oh, so mean,
I just can't see,
No in-between,
You know what the sun's all about,
When the lights go out,
See the moon,
See the stars,
From your lonely seat,
In lonely cars,
You can be,
Oh, so mean,
I just can't see,
No in-between,
You know what the sun's all about,
When the lights go out,
Lights go out,
Lights go out,
Lights go out,
Alright.
Standin' in the sun,
The bottom of your heart,
You don't love no one,
You can be,
Oh, so mean,
I just can't see,
No in-between,
You know what the sun's all about,
When the lights go out,
What a way to live,
Back of your class,
The end of the line--
You're always last,
You can be,
Oh, so mean,
I just can't see,
No in-between,
You know what the sun's all about,
When the lights go out,
See the moon,
See the stars,
From your lonely seat,
In lonely cars,
You can be,
Oh, so mean,
I just can't see,
No in-between,
You know what the sun's all about,
When the lights go out,
Lights go out,
Lights go out,
Lights go out,
Alright.

Just Couldn't Tie Me Down Lyrics – The Black Keys
Will you let me know,
How you've changed?
I can't tell,
In any way,
Little village, is not a town,
Just couldn't tie me down,
You sent a message,
To my mind,
Without reason,
Without rhyme,
Happiness, come around,
Just couldn't tie me down, yeah,
Feel the wind,
Hit your skin,
I see the shape,
You put me in,
Saw your talkin',
Heard the sounds,
Oh, just couldn't tie me down, yeah.

All Hands Against His Own Lyrics – The Black Keys
He found all hands against his own,
He found all eyes were lookin' down,
And the sun had left and gone,
All his friends could not be found,
Don't talk about, don't think about love,
She's not the one you're dreamin' of,
Don't talk about it, can't live without it,
You say you're alone,
He found all hands against his own,
He found the sky had turned to gray,
And the clouds start rollin' in,
Got no use for what they say,
Got no use for where they've been,
Don't talk about, don't think about love,
She's not the one you're dreamin' of,
Don't talk about it, can't live without it,
You say you're alone,
He found all hands against his own,
You say you're alone,
He found all hands against his own,
You say you're alone,
He found all hands against his own, alright,
You say you're alone,
He found all hands against his own, alright,
He found all hands against his own,
And no light from up above,
Just a dark and lonely road,
He found all hands against his own.
He found all eyes were lookin' down,
And the sun had left and gone,
All his friends could not be found,
Don't talk about, don't think about love,
She's not the one you're dreamin' of,
Don't talk about it, can't live without it,
You say you're alone,
He found all hands against his own,
He found the sky had turned to gray,
And the clouds start rollin' in,
Got no use for what they say,
Got no use for where they've been,
Don't talk about, don't think about love,
She's not the one you're dreamin' of,
Don't talk about it, can't live without it,
You say you're alone,
He found all hands against his own,
You say you're alone,
He found all hands against his own,
You say you're alone,
He found all hands against his own, alright,
You say you're alone,
He found all hands against his own, alright,
He found all hands against his own,
And no light from up above,
Just a dark and lonely road,
He found all hands against his own.
Grown So Ugly Lyrics – The Black Keys
I got up this mornin',
Put on my shoes,
Tied my shoes,
Went to the mirror,
For to comb my hair,
I made a move,
Know what to do,
Try to break and run,
Baby, this ain't me,
Baby, this ain't me,
Grown so ugly,
Grown so ugly,
Don't even know myself,
Don't even know myself,
Left Angola, 1964,
Walkin' down the street,
Knock upon my baby's door,
My baby come out,
And ask me who I am,
I say "Honey,
Honey, don't you know your man?"
She said "My man been gone,
Since 1942,
And I tell you, Mr. Ugly,
He didn't look like you!"
Put on my shoes,

The Lengths Lyrics – The Black Keys
Tell me where you're goin',
What is goin' wrong,
I felt you leavin',
Before you'd even gone,
Hold me now,
Or never, ever,
Hold me again,
No more talk,
Could take me from this,
Pain I'm in,
Pain I'm in,
See the moonlight shinin',
On your window pane,
See it leave you,
As faithful as it came,
Please yourself,
So you don't have to,
Be afraid,
Make amends,
Or carry on another way,
Another way,
Oh~oh,
Tell me what you were thinkin',
To treat somebody so,
The care he took,
The lengths to which he'd go,
The coals are hot,
To walk across,
Without your shoes,
But in the end,
Know that you've got nothing to lose,
Nothin' to lose,
Oh~oh, oh~oh.
What is goin' wrong,

Stack Shot Billy Lyrics – The Black Keys
Stack shot Billy in the back of the head,
Stack made sure Billy Lyons was dead,
.45 pistol down in Stack's right hand,
Send him away to the promised land,
Stack shot Billy,
.45,
Stack shot Billy,
Billy lay down and died,
Stack Lee had himself an evil brain,
Loved his gun and his sweet cocaine,
Stack got quiet when the shadows fell,
Knew soon enough that he'd burn in hell,
Stack shot Billy,
.45,
Stack shot Billy,
Billy lay down and died,
Stack shot Billy in the back of the head,
Stack made sure Billy Lyons was dead,
.45 pistol down in Stack's right hand,
Send him away to the promised land,
Stack shot Billy,
.45,
Stack shot Billy,
Billy lay down and died.
Stack made sure Billy Lyons was dead,

Summertime Blues Lyrics – The Black Keys
I'm-a gonna raise a fuss,
I'm-a gonna raise a holler,
'Bout a-workin' all summer just-a tryin'a earn a dollar,
Told my congressman and he said "Well,
I'd like to help ya son,
But you're too young to vote,"
Sometimes I wonder,
What I'm-a gonna do,
For there ain't no cure for the summertime blues,
One two three four,
I'm-a gonna raise a fuss,
I'm-a gonna raise a holler,
'Bout a-workin' all summer just-a tryin'a earn a dollar,
Now I told my congressman and he said "Well,
I'd like to help ya son,
But (something)"
Sometimes I wonder,
What I'm-a gonna do,

Freaked-out, for another day
No fun, my baby, no fun
No fun, my baby, baby, no fun
No fun to be alone
Walkin' by myself
No fun to be alone
In love with nobody else
Maybe go out, maybe stay home
Maybe call my mom on the telephone, come on
No fun, no fun to be alone
No fun to be alone
No fun to be alone, lone, lone, lone, lone, lone
To be alone
No fun to be alone
No fun to be alone
No fun, my baby, no fun
No fun, my baby, no fun
No fun to hang around
Feelin' that same old way
No fun to hand around
Freaked-out, for another day
No fun, my baby, no fun
No fun, my baby, baby, no fun
No fun to be alone
Walkin' by myself
No fun to be alone
In love with nobody else
Maybe go out, maybe stay home
Maybe call my mom on the telephone, come on
No fun, no fun to be alone
No fun to be alone
No fun to be alone, lone, lone, lone, lone, lone
To be alone
No fun to be alone
No fun to be alone

Thickfreakness Lyrics – The Black Keys
Here I am, I'm not here now, no, no, no
And I'll care for you - hey that's all I want to do
Hold me, love me, in your heart
And I'll hold you near and I'll whisper in your ear
I'll take your hand and I'll make you understand
Hold me, love me in your heart

Hard Row Lyrics – The Black Keys
If you wanna go and leave your man
Go on, I'll understand
But then the night gets dark, all is still
Pray for me, I know you will
Hard row to hoe all by yourself
You hit the city, it swallow you whole
You got no friends darlin', to satisfy your soul
And then the sidewalk ends, lights all red,
You say to yourself, you're better off dead
Hard row to hoe all by yourself
Walk out on me, walk out on him
You need no man to do you in
But if the night gets dark, all is still
I'll pray for you, you know I will
Hard row to hoe all by yourself
All by yourself
All by yourself
All by yourself
All by yourself
Go on, I'll understand
But then the night gets dark, all is still
Pray for me, I know you will
Hard row to hoe all by yourself
You hit the city, it swallow you whole
You got no friends darlin', to satisfy your soul
And then the sidewalk ends, lights all red,
You say to yourself, you're better off dead
Hard row to hoe all by yourself
Walk out on me, walk out on him
You need no man to do you in
But if the night gets dark, all is still
I'll pray for you, you know I will
Hard row to hoe all by yourself
All by yourself
All by yourself
All by yourself
All by yourself
Set You Free Lyrics – The Black Keys
You hold on
To love that's gone
Run a mile
To see him smile
But you don't know
He's door to door
Playin' you
For the fool
Let him go
Walk out your door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free
Now you know
There you go
Back to him
He's gonna do you in
Tear you down
And run you 'round
Treat you wrong
And then you're gone
Let him go
Walk out your door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free
You hold on
To love that's gone
Run a mile
To see him smile
But you don't know
He's door to door
Playin' you
For the fool
Let him go
Walk out your door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free
I'll set you free
I'll set you free
I'll set you free
I'll set you free
To love that's gone
Run a mile
To see him smile
But you don't know
He's door to door
Playin' you
For the fool
Let him go
Walk out your door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free
Now you know
There you go
Back to him
He's gonna do you in
Tear you down
And run you 'round
Treat you wrong
And then you're gone
Let him go
Walk out your door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free
You hold on
To love that's gone
Run a mile
To see him smile

Midnight In Her Eyes Lyrics – The Black Keys
Midnight In Her Eyes
Midnight is in her eyes
Tear drops like a child
You never thought about goin' wrong
Now you wonder where your man has gone
Midnight is in her eyes
Lately you're feeling low
Heartache on the floor
Your manic ways have got the best of you
But your heart is gonna see you through
Lately, you're feeling low
I see her everywhere
Long amber hair
Calling out my name
I'm calling just the same
Midnight is in her eyes
Tear drops like a child
You never thought about goin' wrong
Now you wonder where your man has gone
Midnight is in her eyes
Midnight is in her eyes
Tear drops like a child
You never thought about goin' wrong
Now you wonder where your man has gone
Midnight is in her eyes
Lately you're feeling low
Heartache on the floor
Your manic ways have got the best of you
But your heart is gonna see you through
Lately, you're feeling low
I see her everywhere
Long amber hair
Calling out my name
I'm calling just the same
Midnight is in her eyes
Tear drops like a child
You never thought about goin' wrong
Now you wonder where your man has gone
Midnight is in her eyes

Hurt Like Mine Lyrics – The Black Keys
How you hurt me, oh how you cause me pain
Well hurt like mine you could never never understand
Never understand
I remember the tears were in my eyes
River town is burning, the clouds they roll on by, roll on by
She said I'm alright if you're hangin' on
Be your shoulder, lay your troubles on, your troubles on.
Well hurt like mine you could never never understand
Never understand
I remember the tears were in my eyes
River town is burning, the clouds they roll on by, roll on by
She said I'm alright if you're hangin' on
Be your shoulder, lay your troubles on, your troubles on.
Everywhere I Go Lyrics – The Black Keys

Now little baby, now let me tell you what I'm goin' to do

And everywhere I go, ain't got a thing to do (I got a thing for you?)
And everywhere I go, ain't got a thing to do (I got a thing for you?)
No Trust Lyrics – The Black Keys
She wanna get outta the car in the middle of the road
And her screaming and hollerin' is getting mighty old
She check every paper when you step out the room
Ain't go no trust in your mama
Ain't got no trust in your daddy
Ain't got no trust in your sister
And she ain't got trust in you
She want a simple life
She need a simple man
That don't drink or smoke darlin'
Play in a rock & roll band
Oh, but she want you to hold her at night when shes lonely and blue
Ain't go no trust in your mama
Ain't got no trust in your daddy
Ain't got no trust in your sister
And she ain't got trust in you
Yeah she's a beautiful gal when she wanna be
But if you told her so darlin', she'd just disagree
Oh, she hates your job and what you want him to do
Ain't go no trust in your mama
Ain't got no trust in your daddy
Ain't got no trust in your sister
And she ain't got trust in you
And her screaming and hollerin' is getting mighty old
She check every paper when you step out the room
Ain't go no trust in your mama
Ain't got no trust in your daddy
Ain't got no trust in your sister
And she ain't got trust in you
She want a simple life
She need a simple man
That don't drink or smoke darlin'
Play in a rock & roll band
Oh, but she want you to hold her at night when shes lonely and blue
Ain't go no trust in your mama
Ain't got no trust in your daddy
Ain't got no trust in your sister
And she ain't got trust in you
Yeah she's a beautiful gal when she wanna be
But if you told her so darlin', she'd just disagree
Oh, she hates your job and what you want him to do
Ain't go no trust in your mama
Ain't got no trust in your daddy
Ain't got no trust in your sister

Hold Me In Your Arms Lyrics – The Black Keys
I need you, need you by my side
Lonely evenings, eyes are open wide
Nothing you say could make me turn my back
Well I see you, and you see me too
Moon is rising, night will be here soon
Follow me, and lay down in my room
Hold me, hold me in your arms
Well now heal me, heal me with your touch
Your touch keeps me hangin' on
Lonely evenings, eyes are open wide
Nothing you say could make me turn my back
Well I see you, and you see me too
Moon is rising, night will be here soon
Follow me, and lay down in my room
Hold me, hold me in your arms
Well now heal me, heal me with your touch
Your touch keeps me hangin' on
I Cry Alone Lyrics – The Black Keys
My girl, my girl had a hold on me
So tight, so tight that I could not see
Girl, she had a hold on me, she held so tight that I could not see
My girl, my girl had a hold on me
One day, one day I let her go
It hurt, it hurt so, you'll never know
The day I had to let her go, it hurt so bad that you cannot know
One day, one day I let her go.
At night, at night I cry alone
I weep, I weep 'til the early morn'
At night, I cry alone, I weep all night, 'til the early morn'
At night, at night I cry alone
So tight, so tight that I could not see
Girl, she had a hold on me, she held so tight that I could not see
My girl, my girl had a hold on me
One day, one day I let her go
It hurt, it hurt so, you'll never know
The day I had to let her go, it hurt so bad that you cannot know
One day, one day I let her go.
At night, at night I cry alone
I weep, I weep 'til the early morn'
At night, I cry alone, I weep all night, 'til the early morn'
At night, at night I cry alone

The Breaks Lyrics – The Black Keys
"Lean forward slightly, Look straight at
The speaker and listen with a sparkle
In your eye as though you might be thinking
'gee this is the most wonderful thing
I've ever heard in all my life'"
Back in the day, we were eye to eye
The thought of you had me runnin' wild
They say love lost will never grow
But hey, hey, hey I still love you so
Oh when we met you know the sun did shine
From your eyes back into mine
Oh if the sun is shinin' no more,
Hey, hey, I still love you so
I'll beg the moon and the stars above,
Bring me back my, that gal I love
I know you're gone, you're gone for sure,
But hey, hey, hey, I still love you so
The speaker and listen with a sparkle
In your eye as though you might be thinking
'gee this is the most wonderful thing
I've ever heard in all my life'"
Back in the day, we were eye to eye
The thought of you had me runnin' wild
They say love lost will never grow
But hey, hey, hey I still love you so
Oh when we met you know the sun did shine
From your eyes back into mine
Oh if the sun is shinin' no more,
Hey, hey, I still love you so
I'll beg the moon and the stars above,
Bring me back my, that gal I love
I know you're gone, you're gone for sure,
But hey, hey, hey, I still love you so
Run Me Down Lyrics – The Black Keys
Run me down in the winter,
Run me down spring,
Got to the place
Can't do a goddamn thing
But after a while,
You ain't gonna run me down anymore
Run me down in the city,
Run me down on the farm,
Run me with your eyes
And your heavy charm
But after a while,
You ain't gonna run me down anymore
I do for you, lord do for me,
You run me down, where you want me to be
But after a while,
You ain't gonna run me down anymore
Run me down spring,
Got to the place
Can't do a goddamn thing
But after a while,
You ain't gonna run me down anymore
Run me down in the city,
Run me down on the farm,
Run me with your eyes
And your heavy charm
But after a while,
You ain't gonna run me down anymore
I do for you, lord do for me,
You run me down, where you want me to be
But after a while,
You ain't gonna run me down anymore

Oh darling don't you let me leave
And I want you here with me,
Darling I need you
Can't you see I got the yearnin'
We've all day, I want your love
Your special way
I love, I love your smile
Oh darling don't you drive me wild
Oh baby what I would do for one minute
Alone with you
You got me trembling way down inside
And your love I just can't hide
Darling I need you, woohoo!
Darling I need you
Brooklyn Bound Lyrics – The Black Keys
Well I hate to leave you, hate to put you down
But that way you love darling,
Oh I'm Brooklyn bound
I ain't got no money, no house on that hill
Well I'm leavin' you babe,
And say fare you well
Well I'm goin' out east darlin',
Hope you burn in hell
But that way you love darling,
Oh I'm Brooklyn bound
I ain't got no money, no house on that hill
Well I'm leavin' you babe,
And say fare you well
Well I'm goin' out east darlin',
Hope you burn in hell
240 Years Before Your Time lyrics - the black keys
But there is one voice that has never been heard before,
The voice of old Mr. World himself,
The way he might sound if he could speak to us in our own language.
Mr. World, how was this wonderful orderly Earth of ours formed in the first place,
And how long has it been going on?
I am the Earth, the planet you call home.
Scientists believe I am at least four and a half billion years old.
The voice of old Mr. World himself,
The way he might sound if he could speak to us in our own language.
Mr. World, how was this wonderful orderly Earth of ours formed in the first place,
And how long has it been going on?
I am the Earth, the planet you call home.
Scientists believe I am at least four and a half billion years old.
Chop And Change lyrics - the black keys
[from "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" soundtrack]
An innocent child in New Orleans
A simple girl from simple means
Walked the rails
Rode her thumb
She hitched a ride with everyone
The regular, she'd rearrange
The girl knew how to chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Took a job workin' late
Jackin cars from out of state
She found no love in this town
So she'd never mess around
Had no luck, but ain't it strange
The girl knew how to chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
An innocent child in New Orleans
A simple girl from simple means
Walked the rails
Rode her thumb
She hitched a ride with everyone
The regular, she'd rearrange
The girl knew how to chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Took a job workin' late
Jackin cars from out of state
She found no love in this town
So she'd never mess around
Had no luck, but ain't it strange
The girl knew how to chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
Chop and change
