Lyrics From Permanent Vacation
Heart's Done Time
(Perry, D. Child)
Met a woman, she had a man
Couldn't help it I had a plan
Right around midnight he was gone
Saw her red light she left it on
And oh my heart's done time
And oh now she's mine
If there's a reason for these chains
It's like we suffer to ease the pain
Now I got this feelin' inside of me
My heart's in jail and I can't break free
And oh my heart's done time
And oh now she's mine
Now she's mine
Now she's mine
Now she's mine
Now she's mine
And oh my heart's done time
And oh now she's mine
Now she's mine
Now she's mine
Now she's mine
Magic Touch
(Tyler, Perry, Jim Vallance)
Somebody better call a doctor, doctor
Or wake me up with a shove
I'm gonna knock you off you're rocker, rocker
Cause I think I'm in love
I tried to get a message to ya
But you walked the other way
I need your magic touch, don't you know
I got a habit and I can't let go
Feel the fire burnin' slow
You better get it while it's hot now babe
Cause I can't let go
Don't need no wedding with a shotgun, shotgun
So don't you push me too far
Don't try to take me for a fool child, who child
Do you think that you are
You really got it coming to ya
It's gonna come as no surprise
I need your magic touch, don't you know
I'm after you and now I can't let go
Take it easy, take me slow
You better get it while it's hot now babe
Cause I can't let go
You never know what you got
Till they take it away
I'm comin' ready or not
Gonna get you someday
I need your magic touch, don't you know
I'm after you and now I can't let go
Feel the fire burnin' slow
I got a habit and I'm back for more
Your magic touch don't you know
I'm after you and now I can't let go
Feel the fire burnin' slow
You better get it while it's hot now babe
Cause I can't, can't, can't let you go
Rag Doll
(Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Jim Vallance, Holly Knight)
Chorus:
Rag doll, living in a movie
Hot tramp, Daddy's little cutie
So fine, they'll never see ya
Leavin' by the back door, man
Hot time, get it while it's easy
Don't mind, come on up and see me
Rag doll, baby won't you do me
Like you done before
I'm feelin' like a bad boy
Mmm just a like a bad boy
I'm rippin' up a rag doll
Like throwin' away an old toy
Some babe's talkin' real loud
Talkin' all about the new crowd
Try and sell me on an old dream
A new version of the old scene
Speak easy on the grape vine
Keep shufflin' in the shoe shine
Old tin lizzy do it till you're dizzy
Give it all ya got until you're put out of your misery
Chorus
Yes, I'm movin', Yes, I'm movin'
Get ready for the big time
Tap dancing on a land mine
Yes, I'm movin', Yes, I'm movin'
Old tin lizzy do it till you're dizzy
Give it all ya got until you're put out of your misery
Rag doll, livin' in a movie
Hot tramp, Daddy's little cutie
You're so fine they'll never see ya
Leavin' by the back door, man
Hot time, get it while it's easy
Don't mind, come on up and see me
Rag doll, baby won't ya do me, baby won't ya do me,
baby won't ya do me like you done before
Yes, I'm movin', Yes, I'm movin'
Get ready for the big time
Get crazy on the moonshine
Yes, I'm movin', I'm really movin'
Sloe Gin Fizzy
Do it till you're dizzy
Give it all ya got until you're put out of your misery
Chorus
Chorus
Simoriah
(Tyler, Perry, Vallance)
Walkin' the line of a razor's edge
Take it as far as she goes
Slice of the sky on a silver wedge
Higher and higher we go
Let's go
Ladies in black put a spell on me
Feels like my head is going round and round
And round and upside down
Ladies in white ain't my cup of tea
So be it, I need it,
Long legs, big eyes
She drives me crazy
Oh Simoriah
Oh Simoriah
Countin' the eyes of the dragonfly
Callin' on dreams from within
She knows the way and she makes me high
So be it, I need it
Long hair, blue eyes
She drives me crazy
Oh Simoriah
Oh Simoriah
Dude (Looks Like A Lady)
(Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Desmond Child)
Chorus:
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Cruise into a bar on the shore
Her picture graced the grime on the door
She's a long lost love at first bite
Baby maybe you're wrong but you know it's all right
That's right
Backstage we're havin' the time
Of our live until somebody say
Forgive me if I seem out of line
Then she whipped out her gun and tried to blow me away
Chorus
So never judge a book by its cover
Or who you gonna love by your lover
Love put me wise to her love in disguise
She had the body of a Venus
Lord imagine my surprise
Chorus
Baby let me follow you down
Let me take a peek dear
Baby let me follow you down
Do me, do me, do me, all night
Baby let me follow you down
Turn the other cheek dear
Baby let me follow you down
Do me, do me, do me, do me
What a funky lady
She like it like it like it like that
He was a lady
Chorus
Chorus
Dude, dude, dude, dude looks like a lady
Dude, dude, dude, dude looks like a lady
Dude, dude, dude, dude looks like a lady
Dude, dude, dude, dude looks like a lady
St. John
(Tyler)
John was bad
He gave it everything he had
John he prayed
For all the people ever made
John was cool
He never did no after school
Late at night when he praised the Lord
He laid his hands down upon the bloody sword
John St. John be cool
Tell the people
They follow you
John St. John be cool
Tell the people
They follow you
Late at night when he praised the Lord
He lay his hands down down upon the sword
Lay down upon the sword
Lay down upon the sword
Lay down upon the sword
Lay down your bloody sword
John St. John be cool
Tell the people
They'll follow you
John St. John be cool
Tell the people
They'll follow you
Late at night when he praised the Lord
He lay his hands down upon the bloody sword
Laid down upon the sword, down, down upon the sword
Laid down upon the sword, gettin' down upon the sword
Laid down upon the sword, laid it down upon the sword
Laid down upon the sword, "Late Night TV Roared"
Hangman Jury
(Tyler, Perry, Vallance)
Me old my ol' lady sittin' in the shade
Talkin' about the money that I ain't made
Singin' oh boy dontcha line the track a lack a
Oh boy dontcha line the track
Oh boy dontcha line the track a lack a
Oh boy dontcha line the track
If I could I surely would
Stand on the rock that Moses stood
Singin' oh boy dontcha line the track a lack a
Oh boy dontcha line the track
Oh boy dontcha line the track a lack a
Oh boy dontcha line the track
Drank so much hooch
It made my eyes be gettin' blurry
They say I nailed her to the wall
A stitch in time don't mean a thing
No hangman jury could make me crawl
Cause I'm a poor boy
Dontcha line the track a lack a
Oh boy dontcha line the track a lack a
Oh boy dontcha line the track
Whacha do with the gun that's loaded
Shot her dead and her heart exploded
Tell me baby now d-dontcha worry
Like lying to a hangman jury
I swear I didn't know that .45 was loaded
In fact my memory ain't too clear
That's not to say she didn't get what she deserved
Least that's the way it looked from here
Boy when you line the track a lack a
Hey boy when you line the track a lack a
Hey boy dontcha line the track
Oh my love came tumblin' down
Oh love come tumblin' down
Oh (Let's get outta here)
Love come tumblin'
And every night she take her thing
Into the city and in the mornin' make me beg cause
If I'd taken all her real titty gritty
I'd smack her right upside the head boy
Dontcha line the track a lack a
Hey boy dontcha line the track a lack a
Hey boy dontcha line the track
Oh my love came tumblin' down
Oh love come tumblin' down
Oh love come tumblin'
Poor boy sweatin' in the hot summer night
Hangman waitin' for the early morning light
Singin' hey boy dontcha line the track a lack a
Hey boy dontcha line the track
Hey boy dontcha line the track a lack a
Hey boy dontcha line the track
If I could I surely would
Stand on the rock that Moses done stood
Singin' hey boy dontcha line the track a lack a
Hey boy dontcha line the track
Hey boy dontcha line the track a lack a
Hey boy dontcha line the track
Girl Keeps Coming Apart
(Tyler, Perry)
She was a 42nd street walker,
Hangin' out down by a cheap hotel,
Seein' old flooseys floppin' in the wind,
Titties and all,
That's right
She's right peculiar
She'll try and fool ya
But the girl keeps coming apart
She's so appealing
Right off the ceiling
Yeah, the girl keeps coming apart
What did I tell ya
She buy and sell ya
'Cause the girl keeps coming apart
She's so affected
I'm so rejected
And the girl keeps coming apart
Don't, don't, don't, don't let it get me down
Don't let it get me down
She's just a screamer
A nightmare dreamer
Yeah the girl keeps coming apart
She's like a call girl
Loose ends and all girl
But the girl keeps coming apart
White lace and leather
She's so together
But still the girl keeps coming apart
I feel sedated
Boxed up and crated
'Cause the girl keeps coming apart
Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't
Let it get me down
Don't let it get me down
So there she was
Buns up and kneelin'
I was wheelin' and a dealin'
My ace in the hole so to speak
Angel
(Steven Tyler, Desmond Child)
I'm alone yet I don't know if I can face the night
I'm in tears and the cryin' that I do is for you
I want your love let's break the walls between us
Don't make it tough I'll put away my pride
Enough's enough, I've suffered and I've seen the light
Chorus:
Baby
You're my angel come and save me tonight
You're my angel come and make it all right
Don't know what I'm gonna do about this feeling inside
Yes, it's true loneliness took me for a ride
Without your love I'm nothing but a begger
Without your love a dog without a bone
What can I do I'm sleepin in this bed alone
Chorus
Come and save me tonight
You're the reason I live
You're the reason I die
You're the reason I give when I break down and cry
Don't need no reason why
Baby, baby
Chorus
You're my angel come and save me tonight (heaven let her go)
You're my angel come and take me all right
Come and save me tonight, come and save me tonight,
come and save me tonight, come and save me tonight,
come and save me tonight
Permanent Vacation
(Tyler, Whitford)
I got a letter form a friend the other morning
He say it's hot down by Montego Bay
I got the point and now I think it's finally dawning
Yeah, yeah I got to get away
I got to take myself a permanent vacation
The sky's the limit but my plane won't fly
My nose is clean and Lordy don't need no sedation
Yeah, yeah, and that's the reason why
Chorus:
I really need it, really, really, need St. Tropez
I want a tan where the sun it never shines
I really need it, really, really, need St. Tropez
You best believe it that I got to get away
I got a sister man she really got a pin head
She think she kinky but she can't get straight
She say she livin' but I kinda think she brain dead
Just excess baggage on a late night freight
Chorus
I gotta take me on a permanent vacation
The girls be cummin' down in Cayman Brack
I gotta hand it to a firm situation
Yeah, yeah, got to cut me some slack
I really need it, really, really, need St. Tropez
I want a tan where the sun it never shines
I really need it, really, really, really, really, need it
Really need it re-really need it
I'm Down
(John Lennon, Paul McCartney)
You telling lies thinking I can't see
You can't cry 'cos you're laughing at me
Chorus:
I'm down
I'm really down
I'm down
Down on the ground
I'm down
I'm really down
How can you laugh
When you know I'm down
How can you laugh
When you know I'm down
Man buys ring woman throws it away
Same damn thing happens every day
Chorus
We're all alone and there's nobody else
You still moan: "Keep your hands to yourself"
Chorus
Don't you know that I'm down
I'm really down
Don't you know that I'm down
I'm really down
Don't you know that I'm down
I'm really down
Don't you know that I'm down
Down on the ground
Don't you know I'm down down
Don't you know I'm down
I'm really down
Don't you know I'm down
I'm really down
Don't you know that I'm down
I'm really down
Don't you know I'm down down
Down on the ground
Don't you know I'm down
Down, down, down
