Miss Missy

Friday, July 8th, 2011

Written by: John Mellencamp

There’s a band playing down the street we could see, yeah
Movie showing down at the Von Lee
A church supper with Grandma and Grandad
Let’s go out and have ourselves the best time we’ve ever had

Say goodnight, my Miss Missy
Goodnight, it’s time to go home
Hey, I might call...

Close Enough

Monday, July 4th, 2011

Written by: John Mellencamp

I may not be a pillar in my town
or have the kind of job you think that I should.
I know you see me out running around with a couple of people
you think are no good.

I’ve tried to clean it up a couple of times, but I’m a
backslidin’ fool when it comes to walkin’ that line.

Without Expression

Tuesday, June 14th, 2011

Written by: Terry Reid 1968

Have you ever ridden horses through a rainstorm?
Or a lion through a busy street bazarre?
There are many things I’d love to turn you on to
But somehow I feel they’re safer where they are

Yes, there’s a man I know
With no expression
He’s got none at all
Yes, there’s...

Don’t Misunderstand Me

Monday, May 30th, 2011

Written by John Mellencamp

I bring you renegade stories
And you tell me I’m crazy and wild
You say that I lack maturity
Stop actin’ like a child
But you know I am a liar
And my promises only get in my way
You feel so good, when you’re in my arms
Ain’t there one right thing I can say
To make...

Goodnight

Wednesday, April 27th, 2011

Written by John Mellencamp

It’s rainin’ on me
Watch the cab drive you away
I see the night bein’ eatin’ up
By just another day
I guess I’d better accept
That we just didn’t have a lot to say
Except goodnight
I guess it’s goodnight

The city workers
Cleanin’ up the...

Love and Happiness

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

Written by John Mellencamp

Well, we’re droppin’ our bombs
In the southern hemisphere
And people are starving
That live right here
And they’re tearing down walls
In the name of peace
And they’re killing each other
In the Middle East

CHORUS
But love and happiness
Have forgotten our...

Paper In Fire

Monday, March 14th, 2011

Written by: John Mellencamp

She had a dream
And boy it was a good one
So she chased after her dream
With much desire
But when she got too close
To her expectations
Well the dream burned up
Like paper in fire

Chorus
Paper in fire
Stinkin’ up the ashtrays
Paper in fire
Smokin’ up the...

All The Best

Sunday, November 7th, 2010

I wish you love And happiness
I guess I wish you All the best
I wish you don’t Do like I do
And ever fall in love with Someone like you
Cause if you fell Just like I did
You’d probably walk around the block like a little kid.
But kids don’t know They can only guess
How hard it is To wish you happiness

I...

American Dream

Sunday, August 1st, 2010

Written by John Mellencamp

I had a face so cute made a young girl cry
And I could blow ‘em away with just a wink of my eye
I got all dolled up on a Saturday night
Can’t find a lady so I’ll start a fight
Hey but ain’t that the American Dream

But at School the young boys would assemble down in the parking...
