Queen of the Bar

She resided at the bar
having men at her command.
Poshy places and fast cars
were all for which she yearned
No attention did she pay
to sad eyes that followed her
the bartender knew her well
he waited, come what may.

Be my queen, queen of the bar.

And she likes the touch of dough.
Well she always knew what s best.
But the years went passing by.
Faded beauty stands no test.
Late at night she sits alone
at the bar whare she once reigned.
to the barman she says then:
"You can have me, it's your turn"

Be my queen, queen of the bar.

Your're damn pretty.
he cried out and hugged her then.

Luisa

Baby's born the father swayed
it soft in his arms
and from this moment the baby felt
none can't do her no harm

Luisa, Louisiana now you're just a little baby
don't worry I'll care for you
so you're just a little baby
don't worry so God'll bless you

Your daddy will always take care of you
I feel if from my heart
no matter what you're going to do
nothing can tear us apart

Luisa, Louisiana now you're just a little baby
don't worry I'll care for you
so you're just a little baby
don't worry so God'll bless you

Luisa it'a a daughter and a song
and if we feel it both together
it's your daughter and our song
and if we feel it all together
it's our baby and our song

Rain

I feel so high 'cause in my mind
raindrops are diamonds from the sky
you'II feel it soon 'cause in my small room
the storm is the breath of the moon
you feel the same 'cause in our brain
angel's tongues are the shower of the rain
oh l smile at the rain
and Iaugh at the rain never mind

I laugh at the rain feeling no pain
lost in an ocean of wine
I laugh at ths rain feeling no pain
lost in an ocean of wine

I feel the same 'cause in my brain
the sunset glow's an angel coloured up with shame
feeling harmony can't you see
the ice is the rnirror of reality
feel so relaxed 'cause in my head
the wind is your hand creeping in my bed
oh l smile at the rain
and Iaugh at the rain never mind

I laugh at the rain feeling no pain
lost in an ocean of wine
I laugh at ths rain feeling no pain
lost in an ocean of wine
