Keith Richards - Crosseyed Heart Lyrics
Crosseyed Heart
I love my sugar but I love my honey too
Oh I'm a greedy mother, you don't know what to do
I've got a crosseyed heart
Oooh she's so sweet but she drives me round the bend
I go round the corner and find another friend
I've got a crosseyed heart

Heartstopper
My babe don't like me, she loves me just the same
I just can't help it, it goes against the grain
But when she holds me, something starts anew
She forgives me, and I forgive her too
She's a vegetarian, but me, I love my meat
She likes it when it's cool, but I just love the heat
But when she holds me, something starts anew
She forgives me, and I forgive her too
When we're walking down the street,
Oh it blows their minds
Everybody wants a piece,
This piece of mine
Even if I cross the road
She's always on the phone
I don't know who she's talking to,
But I've walked home alone
But when she holds me something starts anew
She forgives me and I forgive her too
That bitch don't like me, but she loves me just the same
And when she loves me I don't feel no pain
She don't like me, she don't like me,
She don't like me, no she don't like me
She don't like me, she don't like me
She don't like me, no she don't like me
She don't like me, she don't like me...

Amnesia
No, I'm not gonna do nothin'
I ain't gonna do shhh
I ain't gonna do nothin'
I'm gonna sit in here
And wait each other
Until the shit kicks in
You understand me?
You got it? You got it? You got it?
Woah!
Nowhere
Nowhere
Don't know who I am
Forgotten my name
I got no address
And who the hell's to blame?
Knocked on my head
Everything went blank
I didn't even know,
The Titanic sank
Nowhere
Nowhere
Checked my passports
But it seems I've been around
But I can't remember China
Like baggage lost and found
Thought I met mother
She said "You don't belong to me,
Behind you must be trouble,
Broken hearts and misery"
Nowhere
I'm talkin' nowhere
(Remember)
I try and jog my memory
It's a futile exercise
When you're a man from nowhere (nowhere)
Ha, you don't get a prize
How can I regret, ha
It's so easy to forget
You know everything I do,
I know nothing about you
No-f*cking-where (Remember)
I can't recall the past
Nowhere, you know what I mean?
Nowhere

Robbed Blind
I can roll
Someone stole some money
Who it is, it ain't quite clear
Stolen from my honey
She holds my stash 'round here
The cops, you know, I can't involve them
They'd only interfere
So, I hit the usual suspects
But I drew a blank round there
I'm robbed blind, robbed blind
Found a letter to her
It was from a, a friend of mine
It was a plan to screw me
That's what they had in mind
The cops, I, can't involve them
Don't want them coming near
'Cause this thing is getting personal
And the picture is now quite clear
I'm robbed blind, robbed blind, bled dry
The stash, no longer matters
And he ain't hard to find
'Cause it ain't the money, honey,
But the heart you stole was mine
The cops, I, can't involve them
God knows what they could find
Well I've learned a lesson from that girl
Whose faith is yet to be defined
Been robbed blind, robbed blind
Robbed blind, thank you sweetheart
Bled dry, that was a damn good try
Robbed blind, been robbed blind
Robbed blind, bled dry

Trouble
Just because you find yourself
Off the streets again
That don't mean that I can't help you
Or I ain't your friend
Baby trouble is your middle name
Your trouble is that that's your game
Now you are out of circulation, out of reach and out of touch
Let me keep you in the loop
Though I can't tell you much
Baby trouble is your middle name
The trouble is that that's your game
Just because I can't see you, see you anymore
That's because, honey, you're doing 2 to 4
Baby trouble is your middle name
The trouble is that that's your game, oh yeah
Just because you find yourself
Back to jail again
That don't mean we can't connect, you know
I'm still your friend
Baby trouble is your middle name
The trouble is that that's your game
(The trouble, that's your game)
Even though you are still inside
I could get you off the hood
But I know if I get you out
I won't get a second look
Baby trouble is your middle name
The trouble is that that's your game
Trouble
Too much trouble
Too much trouble
Too much trouble

Love Overdue
Listen darling
Who's gonna hold and squeeze me tight?
Now that she's gone out of my life
Who's gonna make me feel the way she used to do
Now that my love is overdue
Now that my love is overdue
I'm all alone in my wilderness
I'm searching to find some peace and rest
She wasn't the best girl
(But she brought happiness into my world)
And now I'm a prisoner of loneliness
Yeah
Well I'm a prisoner of loneliness
(Now I'm a prisoner) That's what I'm (now I'm a prisoner, now I'm a prisoner of loneliness)
Listen darling
Whose voice is gonna say goodnight
Now that she's gone out of my sight
Who's gonna tell me lies and let me think they're true
Now that my love is overdue
Now that my love is overdue
Now that my love is overdue
I just don't know what to do honey, yeah
Stop making me blue, stop it baby (I'm a prisoner)

Nothing On Me
You ain't got nothing on me
Nothing on me
They laid it on too thick,
They couldn't make it stick
They ain't got nothing on me
They ain't got nothing on me
You know they laid another charge
That's why I'm still at large
No they got nothing on me,
They got nothing on me, that's right
You know they watch me like a hawk
Yeah, they even took me for a walk
You know they tried to make me squawk
But they got nothing on me,
No nothing on me
Not a thing
We've gone through this before, oh baby
I can't do this no more
I'm walking out the door
'Cause you've got nothing on me,
Nothing on me
I don't resist arrest,
I think it's for the best, you know
Because they've got nothing on me
Not a thing
You know they've got nothing on me
I was in between, yeah
It's something unforeseen
I was squeaky clean
They ain't got nothing on me, ooh
Nothing on me
They got nothing
We've been through this before
You know, I can't do this no more
And I'm walking out the door
'Cause you got nothing on me
Nothing on me
No nothing on me
Oh baby baby
No, they're shooting from the hip
(They ain't got nothing on me)
And I'm gonna plead the fifth
(Nothing on me)
Nothing on me! Nothing...
(They ain't got nothing on me)

Suspicious
Suspicious as it seems
You're cropping up in dreams
What have you done to me?
I knew it from the start,
You better barricade your heart
What you've done to me?
Why should we break up?
Some kind of shake-up
I deserve some sympathy
Somewhere in your heart
You saved a little part
Look what you've done to me
Well I hope you're satisfied
With what you've done to me
Don't let us breakup
Some kind of shake-up
Go get some sympathy
Somewhere deep inside
You've been taken for a ride
Look what you've done to me
And now that we've all cried,
Well I hope you're satisfied
What you've almost done for me
Suspicious as it seems
You're cropping up in dreams
What have you done to me?
Why should we break up?
Some kind of shake-up
I deserve some sympathy
In your heart,
I know that there's a part
That you've kept just for me
No matter what you do
I'm still a part of you
You'll never be free of me
Why should we break up?
Some kind of shake-up
I deserve some sympathy
I told you from the start
You better barricade that heart
'Cause what you've done to me

Blues In The Morning
Got the blues in the morning
I believe that's far too long
Got the blues in the morning
Now babe it's been too long
It's hardcore babe but I gotta sing this song
Maybe frayed around the edges but a little bit loose outside
Torn at the edges but really, really loose inside
I'm long gone honey, you ain't gonna be my bride
Blues in the morning
Baby they last too long
Make up the blues in the morning
Baby they last too long
? baby but now it's come and gone
Holes in the pocket
Baby don't ask me why
They got holes in my pocket but
Baby don't ask me why
I bought you everything
And now you wanna say goodbye
Got a picture of your face
And I hold it up to the light
Got a picture of your face
And I hold it up to the light
? a good thing baby
It still gives me a fright
I had the blues in the morning
And I had them far too long
I had the blues in the morning
And I had them far too long
Come back baby and see if we can get along
Blues in the morning
But they keep on all day long
We got the blues in the morning
But babe they'd last too long
I don't care 'cause I'm a billionaire
Ah, ah...

Something For Nothing
We can figure the odds
We can pray to the Gods
(Something for nothing)
You can shuffle the deck
Until you're a wreck
(Something for nothing)
Money they don't make anymore,
At least not around me
Might as well beg from the poor,
Pitiful me
Pitiful me yeah
It's just a game,
The rules never change
(Something for nothing)
It's just the roll of the dice
That you put on ice
(Something for nothing)
The money, they don't make anymore,
Not around me
Might as well beg from the poor,
Poor poor, pitiful me
Pitiful me, yeah
Poor pitiful me
Gimme a break,
I'm losing my stake
(Something for nothing)
Oh,
I
(Something for nothing)
Money, they don't make anymore,
Not around me
Might as well beg from the poor,
Pitiful me,
Poor pitiful me,
Pitiful me
Oh yeah
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing

Illusion
It's an illusion in my blood
But it's not the one you're thinking of
Illusion in my heart
Doesn't mean we have to part baby
Just an illusion, that's for sure
Nothing that you've seen before
Baby, an illusion
But not the one you're looking for
Between you and me
Yes, between you and me (you and me)
Between you and me
What's this illusion in your eyes?
We see each other different ways
A solution, babe
But it's not the one you're thinking of
Baby, such a an illusion in my soul
But I never said I'd let you go
This illusion is haunting me
But it ain't the one you're looking for, babe
(Between you and me)
Oh what's the difference between you and me?
Oh what's the difference between you and me?
No conclusion babe
So you say
I'm not the one you're thinking of baby
A confusion to my heart
It nearly tore us apart
She's an illusion babe
But not the one you're looking for, babe
Between you and me
What's the defference between you and me?
Something that deeply set you free
It's an illusion (Yeah that's the difference honey)
Between you and me. (That's the difference)
What's the difference between
To my blood
But not the one you're thinking of
It's an illusion in my heart...

Just A Gift
Just how could I resist a kiss that don't exist?
It's behind me
You're just like shooting stars hanging round in bars
Well it bores me
If you find yourself in need
And need a friend to call
Well you know where I live
And I'll open up that door
Whatever they may say, there's nothing that can stay
Behind me
'Cause this is just a gift and you give me a lift
Come on, surprise me
If you want and feel a need to call
You know my name
My address hasn't changed at all
And I'm still the same
That's alright. That's alright
That's alright with me
Nothing's what it seems, maybe just a dream
If you should find me
'Cause I'm hanging around in bars with a lot of shooting stars
And they bore me
If you find that you may need a friend
You know who to call
If you want, I'll meet ya down the stairs
And open up the door
'Cause that's alright,
that's alright, that's alright, that's alright,
yeah that's alright, that's alright, that's alright
that's alright, that's alright, that's alright baby
that's alright, that's alright
that's alright, that's alright

Goodnight Irene
Well Irene goodnight, Irene, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnights Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
Last Saturday night I got married
Me and my wife settled down
Now me and my wife, we are parted
I think I'll go out of my town
'Cause sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in the town
Sometimes I take that great notion
To jump in the river and drown
Irene goodnight, Irene, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnights Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
I love Irene, God knows I do
I'll love her till the seas run dry
If Irene should ever turn me down
I'd take morphine and die
Irene goodnight, Irene, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnights Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
Stop rambling, stop gambling
Stop staying out all night
Go home to your wife and your baby
And stay by your fireside bright
So Irene goodnight, Irene, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
I'll see you in my dreams

Substantial Damage
Substantial damage baby
You're begging my heart
You like to have fun everyday
What's that thing attaching your ears
I'm talking to you but you don't seem to hear!
I'm playing for dinner, but my mother is nothing here
Substantial damage babe
You're kidding me
Substantial damage
What are we doing together?
You got to prove I've got a favor
Ah!!
Substantial damage babe
I know you go ? honey, it's just your way you ?
'i have no idea'
When you are gabriel, ?
I don't know i love you, i don't know what i am doing
Oh must be a ?
Must be the same with you
Oh, ?

Lovers Plea
Baby, baby, baby
Let me lay it out to you
I don't know where you're going
But I know what you've been through
A little wishin'
Or just an apparition
Lately, lately, baby, baby
This is my lover's plea to you
Honey, honey, honey
Being left out in the cold
And nothing turns to silver
Nothing ever turns to gold
It's been a while
For you, I'd walk that extra mile but
Baby, baby, baby
My lover's plea to you
This is my lover's plea to you
This is my lover's plea to you
Bitter wind is blowing
And winter's getting close
It's me that wants to keep you warm
But I'm not the one you chose
It seems too tough, yeah
Confusion can get a little rough
Baby, baby, baby
My lover's plea to you
I wonder how you're feeling now
I leave it up to you
This seems such a problem baby
Let me help you see it through
Yes it seems so cheap
It's enough to make a grown man weep but
Baby, baby, baby
My lover's plea to you
This is my lover's plea to you (plea)
This is my lover's plea to you (my plea)
This is my lover's plea to you (plea to you)
