Presence Of The Lord Lyrics

I have finally found a way to live
Just like I never could before.
I know that I don't have much to give,
But I can open any door.

Everybody knows the secret,
Everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live
In the color of the Lord.

I have finally found a place to live
Just like I never could before.
And I know I don't have much to give,
But soon I'll open any door.

Everybody knows the secret,
Everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a place to live
In the Presence Of The Lord.
In the presence of the Lord.

I have finally found a way to live
Just like I never could before.
And I know I don't have much to give,
But I can open any door.

Everybody knows the secret,
I said everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live
In the color of the Lord.
In the color of the Lord.

Presence Of The Lord Song Chart

Eric Clapton wrote this song, which is a testimony of faith. It's the first song he wrote all the lyrics for.

Steve Winwood sang lead, as he did with all of the Blind Faith songs. Clapton wanted him to sing it because he knew Winwood could hit the high notes.

This was Blind Faith's only album. They broke up after one difficult tour.

The song is about how Clapton was becoming more comfortable with his life. He had just left Cream at the peak of it's popularity, and was looking forward to playing with Blind Faith.

The album cover was a photo of a young girl with no clothes on holding a model spaceship. According to photographer Bob Seidemann, who shot the cover, he had the idea but did not have someone to pose. While riding the London subway, he saw a young girl who would be perfect and asked her to pose for the cover. He went to the girl's house to ask her parents' permission to pose topless for the cover. They agreed, but the girl backed out. However, the girl's younger sister begged the parents to let her pose instead. They agreed and the younger sister ended up posing for the cover. Seidemann called the image "Blind Faith" and Eric Clapton made that the name of the group. (thanks, Joel - Chicago, IL)

Jessie told the British edition of Hello! that this was the most personal song she wrote for her Sweet Talker album. "We've all been there, when you fall in love with the right person at the wrong time or the wrong person at the right time," she said. "This is about being in love with someone who isn't allowing you to love them how you know you could."

Let It Rain Lyrics

The rain is falling through the mist of sorrow that surrounded me
The sun could never thaw away the bliss that lays around me

[Chorus]
Let It Rain, let it rain,
Let your love rain down on me
Let it rain, let it rain,
Let it rain, rain, rain

Her life was like a desert flower burning in the sun
Until I found the way to love, it's harder said than done

Let it rain, let it rain,
Let your love rain down on me
Let it rain, let it rain,
Let it rain, rain, rain

Now I know the secret; there is nothing that I lack
If I give my love to you, you'll surely give it back

Let it rain, let it rain,
Let your love rain down on me
Let it rain, let it rain,
Let it rain, rain, rain

Let it rain, let it rain,
Let your love rain down on me
Let it rain, let it rain,
Let it rain, rain, rain

Let It Rain Song Chart

Clapton wrote this with the help of Bonnie and Delaney Bramlett. They put most of it together while they were touring together in 1969; Clapton with Blind Faith, and The Bramletts supporting them with their group Delaney & Bonnie. Blind Faith broke up after their first tour, and Clapton formed Derek and the Dominos with Delaney & Bonnie's backup group, who Clapton became friends with on the tour.

This was the last track on Clapton's first solo album. Delaney Bramlett produced it.

Organist Bobby Whitlock, bass player Carl Radle and drummer Jim Gordon were part of Clapton's backing band on his first album and played on this track. After recording the album, these four formed their own group, Derek and the Dominos, and released the classic album Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs.

Jim Gordon wrote the piano part for "Layla" and later suffered terrible mental illness and bludgeoned his mother to death.

Jerry Allison and Sonny Curtis sang backup on this track. They were former members of The Crickets, Buddy Holly's backup band. The female backup singers were Bonnie Bramlett and Rita Coolidge.

This wasn't released as a single until 1972, two years after the album came out. This was done to capitalize on the success of "Layla," which became a hit that year when it was re-released as a long version and after people figured out that Derek and the Dominos was Clapton's group.

This was one of the few Eric Clapton solo tracks Derek and the Dominos played when they toured. At one point, they used it to teach drummer Jim Gordon a lesson. "Jim Gordon was going on about how he never got a drum solo, so we fixed his little wagon," Bobby Whitlock said in his Songfacts interview. "We gave him a drum solo in 'Let It Rain' and it lasted for nine-and-a-half minutes. And he kept going - you could hear it in the solo. He would stop and he was looking at Eric. We were on the side of the stage behind the curtain smoking a cigarette and having a drink, and we wouldn't come back out, so he had to keep going and keep going. Okay, Mr. Drummerman, you want a solo? Take your solo."

Stephen Stills played the guitar solo in the middle of the song.

Back In The Box Lyrics

Let me in
Don't stop can't stop
Oh and it's big time
Walk on the wind
Breaking me out
From the inside and the outside
A shock front
Rocked you and rocked you
Double quicklime
Hold the whirlwind
Hanging me up
Like the first time and the last time

Hang on, hang on
The universe explodes
Hang on, hang on
Confusion controls

What's happening
It's shooting me up
Into the big sky
Just everything
Is breaking us out
From the inside
And the outside
Thoughts blown
Rocked and blocked me
Oh, I'm mystified
Chase the whirlwind
Waking us up
For the first time and the last time

Come on, come on
The universe exposed
Come on. come on
Confusion controls

Day by day by day
By North or South
You can't go home
Confusion controls
Hang on, hang on
The universe explodes

Back In The Box Song Chart

This is the opening track on Johnny Marr's Playland album. "When I wrote the first song, 'Back In The Box', I knew it would be the opener," Marr told NME, because it's just a celebration of euphoria and ecstasy."

Marr described this to Q magazine as, "a good old-fashioned love song."

Johnny Marr expanded on the song's meaning to DIY magazine: "I'm singing about transcendence and euphoria and ecstatic states, either hearing a record you like, waking up on a sunny morning, being in love," he said. "Or schizophrenia, drugs, all these things that can make you have a euphoric experience."

Lay Down Sally Lyrics

There is nothing that is wrong
In wanting you to stay here with me
I know you've got somewhere to go
But won't you make yourself at home and stay with me?
And don't you ever leave

Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you

The sun ain't nearly on the rise
And we still got the moon and stars above
Underneath the velvet skies
Love is all that matters
Won't you stay with me?
And don't you ever leave

Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you

I long to see the morning light
Coloring your face so dreamily
So don't you go and say goodbye
You can lay your worries down and stay with me
And don't you ever leave

Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you

Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you

Lay Down Sally Song Chart

This jaunty tune is one of Clapton's biggest American hits. He wrote it in the style of one of his favorite songwriters, the Oklahoma musician J.J. Cale (Clapton said the song was "as close as an Englishman could get to being J.J. Cale). The B-side of the single was Clapton's cover of Cale's song "Cocaine."

In this song, Clapton tries to convince a girl to hang out with him in bed instead of leaving. The song is not typical of Clapton's work, which is often based on the blues.

Marcy Levy, one of Clapton's backup singers, wrote this with him and sang on it. She toured with Bob Seger before joining Clapton's band in 1973. In 1988, Levy, using the name Marcella Detroit, joined former Bananarama singer Siobhan Fahey to form Shakespear's Sister.

Also getting a songwriting credit on this track is George Terry, who also played guitar on the track. Terry was a member of Clapton's band.

"Lay Down Sally" is grammatically incorrect, as it would mean taking Sally and actually placing her horizontally. When asking Sally to join him in bed, Clapton's correct grammar would be "Lie Down Sally." He's in good company: Bob Dylan also ignored this rule of grammar in "Lay Lady Lay." (thanks, Bert - Pueblo, NM)

Eric Clapton once had his hand slammed in a car door by a member of the band The Blues Project. As told in Al Kooper's Backstage Passes and Backstabbing Bastards , during the landmark 1967 concert "Murray the K's Easter Rock Extravaganza," Clapton, Steve Katz, and Kooper headed out to a local music store between sets and were a little late getting back. Hurrying out of the cab, "Steve was right behind me and as he left the cab he accidentally slammed the door right on Clapton's hand! Eric began to scream in pain, and Steve turned around, ran back, and opened the door. Miraculously, Eric hadn't broken any bones or even punctured his skin for that matter. Steve felt like a jerk, however. Can you imagine that kind of guilt?"

This is the first track on the album. Depending on who you ask, "Slowhand" was either a nickname given to Clapton by the group's manager when he was with The Yardbirds (because of his laid-back guitar style), or derived from what would happen when Clapton would break a string on stage: the audience would do a "slow hand clap" while he fixed it.

Title Lyrics

If you want my love
He gotta do what he does
If you want these sweet like sugar Gucci lips
He gotta give it up
I know you think I'm cool
But I ain't one of the boys
No, don't be scared that I'm gon' tie you down
I need a little more

Baby, don't call me your friend
If I hear that word again
You might never get a chance to see me naked in your bed
And I know girls ain't hard to find
But if you think you wanna try
Then consider this an invitation to kiss my ass goodbye

Give me that Title, title
Come on give me that title, title
Better give me that title, title
Come on give me that title, title

If it ain't no game
I won't be hanging around
But don't blow up my shit at 3 AM saying
"How you need me now?"
Don't call me boo
Like you're some kind of ghost (which you're a ghost)
If you don't want me seeking other guys
Well, here's what you need to know

Baby, don't call me your friend
If I hear that word again
You might never get a chance to see me naked in your bed
And I know girls ain't hard to find
But if you think you wanna try
Then consider this an invitation to kiss my ass goodbye

Give me that title, title
Come on give me that title, title
Better give me that title, title
Come on give me that title, title

Yeah, said I'm a special kind of woman
I'm loving what you got, but I'm hating what you doing
Gotta understand that I'm looking for a man
Who can get up on a bike, look ma, no hands
You gotta show me off, off
But you embarrassed, if that's the case I'm all gone
You gotta treat me like a trophy, put me on the shelf
I promise something else

Baby, don't call me your friend
If I hear that word again
You might never get a chance to see me naked in your bed
And I know girls ain't hard to find
But if you think you wanna try
Then consider this an invitation to kiss my ass goodbye

Give me that title, title

Title Song Chart

The upbeat title track of Meghan Trainor's debut EP is an ode to commitment in a relationship.

Baby, don't call me your friend
If I hear that word again
You might never get a chance to see me naked in your bed

The sassy singer is warning a guy if you want to get with her, you'd better give her that girlfriend title.

This was released as the second single from Title. "Dear Future Husband" was originally earmarked to be the second release as it has a closer doo-wop sound to "All About That Bass," but instead this was chosen as the follow-up to Meghan's #1 smash. "I loved that 'Title' showed a little Caribbean drum before the chorus," she explained to MTV News, "and then, like, a rap bridge that was, like…[a] totally different sound."

Title topped the US album chart, making Trainor the thirteenth female artist to achieve both a debut #1 single and long player. The previous female artist to do so was Kesha with "TiK ToK" and Animal in 2010.

Trainor wrote this with her "All About That Bass" songwriting partner Kevin Kadish, who also produced the track. He explained to Songwriter Universe: "We had a free day and we wrote the song right away, in about eight minutes! We were inspired. The lyric theme is about something real that Meghan was dealing with. I had this track and she said she wanted to write to it."

I Shot the Sheriff Lyrics

(I Shot the Sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy, oh no! Oh!
I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Yeah! All around in my home town,
They're tryin' to track me down,
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy,
For the life of a deputy, but I say

Oh, now, now, oh!
(I shot the sheriff) the sheriff
(But I swear it was in self defense) Oh, no! (Oh, oh, ooh)
Yeah, I say, I shot the sheriff oh, Lord! (And they say it is a capital offense)
Yeah! (oh, oh, ooh) Yeah!

Sheriff John Brown always hated me,
For what, I don't know,
Every time I plant a seed,
He said kill it before it grow,
He said kill them before they grow, and so

Read it in the news! (I shot the sheriff) Oh, Lord!
(But I swear it was in self-defense)
Where was the deputy? (Oh, oh, ooh)
I say, I shot the sheriff,
But I swear it was in self defense, yeah! (Ooh)

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah!
All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down,
So I shot, I shot, I shot him down and I say,
If I am guilty I will pay!

(I shot the sheriff) But I say (But I didn't shoot no deputy),
I didn't shoot no deputy (oh, no-oh) oh no!
(I shot the sheriff) I did!
But I didn't shoot no deputy, oh (Oh, oh, ooh)

Reflexes had got the better of me
And what is to be must be,
Every day the bucket a-go a well,
One day the bottom a-go drop out,
One day the bottom a-go drop out, I say

I, I, I, I, shot the sheriff.
Lord, I didn't shot the deputy, no
I, I (shot the sheriff)
But I didn't shoot no deputy, yeah
So, yeah

I Shot the Sheriff Song Chart

This song tells the story of a man who shoots a sheriff who is harassing him, but is wrongly accused of killing the deputy. Marley said that some of the song is true, but would not say what parts.

This was the last single Marley released with Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer, who left to go solo.

Eric Clapton recorded this in 1974. His version was a #1 hit in the US, the only #1 of his career. Clapton's recording gave Marley a big boost, as it exposed him to a rock audience.

On the 2001 documentary The Life Of Bob Marley, Esther Anderson, who was Marley's girlfriend, claims she helped write this and that it is about birth control.

The sheriff's name in the song is John Brown. In 1963, Bob Dylan wrote a song called "John Brown" about a boy who goes to war and comes back badly wounded.

Bruce Springsteen used the name "John Brown" as the name of a judge in his 1981 song "Johnny 99."

Marley later wrote a song called "Mr. Brown," which was probably about the same character. (thanks, Brad Nash - Rochester Hills, MI)

This ballad was inspired by the old songs that vocalist Cody Carson's parents used to sing. "My mom and Dad used to be in a band together, and they would end one of their sets with their arrangement of a medley of patriotic songs, which ended with an incredibly powerful rendition of 'God Bless America.'" he explained to MTV News. "The ending gave me goosebumps so intense that I can't describe the feeling and will never forget that."

"I called my mom late at night while in the studio and arranged the end of 'Miss Mysterious' with her to mimic the end of their medley," Carson continued, "and I am so happy with how that came out."

I Can't Stand It Song Chart

Clapton is rooted in Blues, which is evident on this song where he tells his lover he can't stand her cheating and isn't going to put up with it anymore.

Clapton added some new members to his band before recording this, including Albert Lee on guitar and Gary Brooker, formerly of Procol Harum, on keyboards. The band lasted only one album, but Clapton remained good friends with Brooker.

A month after this was released, Clapton developed severe ulcers and almost died. Years of alcohol and pain killers were responsible.

Clapton got the album title from a friend who was always asking for another ticket to his shows.

Let's Go Song Chart

Sixx: A.M.'s songs start in different ways. Sometimes vocalist James Michael will come up with a melody, or guitarist DJ Ashba and bassist Nikki Sixx will come up with a riff or chord pattern. DJ Ashba explained to Artist Direct : "Every song we've ever done just starts off with us literally picking up a couple of acoustics, strumming out some chords, and James will sing a beautiful melody. When we write songs from a musical standpoint, we get basic chord rhythms going, and we get the melody. The melody is the number one most important thing to all of us because we're all songwriters."

"Once we know we're locked into such a sick melody, then, almost the last thing I worry about when writing a song is the guitar parts," Ashba added. "No matter how awesome the guitars are, if you strip any song down, it usually boils down to three or four basic chords underneath the whole. And just a solid melody. We focus on the understructure of what makes a great song."

"The last thing I usually do when it comes to writing, once a song's in place, is add in all the cool riffs around the vocals," he continued. "It's super important for me to add to the song and not step on it. If the guitars call for it, you add a really ripping solo. All of those things are determined once the song is in place. Sometimes, a riff will inspire a song as in the case of 'Let's Go.' It's always different."

The lyric reflects Nikki Sixx' ongoing recovery from heroin addiction. He explained to Billboard magazine: "Lyrically it really ties back to the first two records. It's a song that kind of says, 'Hey, let's get up and get out of our own way. Let's go. Let's go through the darkness. We can make this. We can do this.'"

I think I met my match again
Passing 'round the candlelight
In the center of this blizzard
You stood and melted all the ice

[Chorus]
Ah, It's Only Love
Ah, it's only love
Ah, if only love comes around again
It will have been
Worth the ride

You were master of so many
But savior to none
I waged all of my hopes so plenty
On you, now look what I've become

Someday's lonely is not only
A word, but faces I have known
And if you see me, could you free me
With a smile, so I can let go

Sheryl Crow wrote this song about Nicks based on stories Stevie told her after they became friends. Crow produced this track as well, along with four other songs on the album.

The Trouble In Shangri-La album actually represents an accumulation of a decade-and-a-half's worth of work as well as three songs from the 1970s.
Is it just our imagination, or does every other song by Stevie Nicks look back to her Fleetwood Mac days? In the course of compiling this album, Nicks got sidetracked... to say the least. One instance was writing a song for the 1996 action film Twister, which led to her crossing paths with Lindsey Buckingham and eventually the reunion of the band in 1997.

Sheryl Crow and Stevie Nicks go back a ways, and the two performers frequently collaborate. In return for Crow's work on this song, Nicks performed on Crow's 2002 album C'Mon C'Mon.

While we're on the subject of Stevie Nicks, pay no attention to the wild-hair rumor that Lindsay Lohan was planning to buy the rights to her life story and film it with herself (Lohan) in the lead role. While Lohan might have burbled this idea at some point, Nicks has said that this would happen - quote - "over my dead body" - end quote, along with something about somebody needing to "stop doing drugs and get a grip."
