Woke Up This Morning Lyrics

I'm gonna take you down
Deep down to the front lines

You Woke Up This Morning
Got yourself a gun,
Mama always said you'd be
The Chosen One.

She said, you're one in a million
You've got to burn to shine,
But you were born under a bad sign,
With a blue moon in your eyes.

You woke up this morning
All that love had gone,
Your Papa never told you
About right and wrong.

But you're looking good, baby,
I believe you're feeling fine, (Shame about it),
Born under a bad sign
With a blue moon in your eyes.

You woke up this morning
Got a blue moon in your eyes
You woke up this morning
Got a blue moon in your eyes

You woke up this morning
The world turned upside down,
Thing's ain't been the same
Since the Blues walked into town.
But you're one in a million
You've got that shotgun shine. (Shame about it)
Born under a bad sign,
With a blue moon in your eyes.
You woke up this morning
Got a blue moon in your eyes
You woke up this morning
Got a blue moon in your eyes

When you woke up this morning everything was gone.
By half past ten your head was going ding-dong.
Ringing like a bell from your head down to your toes,
Like a voice trying to tell you there's something you should know.
Last night you were flying but today you're so low
Ain't it times like these that make you wonder if
You'll ever know the meaning of things as they appear to the others;
Wives, mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers.
Don't you wish you didn't function, don't you wish you
Didn't think beyond the next paycheck and the next little drink?
Well you do so make up your mind to go on, 'cause
When you woke up this morning everything you had was gone.

Woke up this morning,
Woke up this morning,
Woke up this morning,
You want to be the Chosen One.

Woke up this morning,
Woke up this morning,
Woke up this morning,
You got yourself a gun.

Woke Up This Morning Song Chart

This became famous as the theme song for the HBO TV show The Sopranos, but it was around long before the show. The song first appeared on the group's 1997 debut album Exile on Coldharbour Lane, and remained an obscurity until David Chase, who created the HBO show The Sopranos, decided to use it as the theme song. Chase originally wanted to use a different song for each episode of the show, but HBO insisted on one song for the sake of branding and consistency. Chase says that the first time he heard "Woke Up This Morning," he knew it was the one (Chase says he bought the CD after hearing a different song by the group on the radio). A3 received $40,000 for the use of the song; It was an offer they couldn't refuse.

With the refrain "Woke up this morning, got myself a gun," the song does sound very gangster, but it's actually about a case in which a wife finally shot her abusive husband after twenty years. The song is about female empowerment, not the mob.

The woman in question is Sara Thornton, who killed her husband in 1989. The case made headlines in England, where Alabama 3 founder Rob Spragg heard about it and got the idea for the song. He wrote the song with his bandmates Jake Black, Simon Edwards and Piers Marsh.

Alabama 3 are neither a trio nor from Alabama. Formed by Rob Spragg and Jake Black, they are from south London, but have an affinity for American Country music, which they would combine with House music. Like Chumbawamba, they were a collective with rotating members, often performing songs with political leanings.

Spragg and Black started out playing raves around England under the name Larry Love and the Reverend D Wayne Love, speaking in American accents. Their first album in 1997 was adored by some music critics, but left no impression on the charts, as their fusion of Americana with Eurodance proved a little too niche. That niche turned out to be perfect for The Sopranos, however, as it provided an appropriate song that was unheard to all but a tiny sliver of the show's viewers.

When the show became a huge hit, Alabama 3 brought their act to America, where they played a series of shows.

As detailed in the liner notes for the album, this song samples "Tell Me" by Howlin' Wolf, "Standing at the Burying Ground" by Mississippi Fred McDowell, and "Mannish Boy" by Muddy Waters. Howlin' Wolf, under his real name Chester Burnett, is a credited writer on the song along with four members of Alabama 3.

In the US, the band used the name A3 for legal reasons, as the Country band Alabama threatened a lawsuit (even "Bama 3" and "Alabaman 3" were denied). The name Alabama 3 derives from a 1930s case involving two black men were lynched after being accused of raping a white woman. The men were called the "Alabama 2" in the media.

At the 1999 Emmy awards, the house orchestra played a version of this every time a Sopranos actor or writer won an award. It was played many times that night.

To get the song on the radio and MTV, the word "gun" had to be removed. This posed a problem because the phrase "Woke up this morning, got yourself a gun" is repeated many times throughout.

There is a degree of irony in this song that made it apropos for The Sopranos, which is about a Mafia family and their emotional struggles. As Jake Black explained in The Times of London: "It's totally ironic that we, who disapprove of anything villains do, should be picked for the theme song of a show that shows the human side of villains. You see the guy knocking f--k out of someone... but he's got heart. All the while the guy's controlling thousands of people's lives, squeezing them. So that is ironic."

By the time this song became the theme for The Sopranos, Alabama 3 had been dropped from their American record label, Geffen. Sony Music, which issued the soundtrack to the show, re-released the song as a single in 2000, but it went nowhere, as the song got very little airplay (a battered-woman song by British guys with American accents somehow couldn't find a format) and the band was too obscure to generate sales.

In the UK, the band is better known for their song "Ain't Goin' To Goa," which hit #40 there in 1998.

The original US release on this song was a 12" single containing five different mixes of the song:
Chosen One Mix
Urban Takeover Mix
Drillaz In The Church Mix
Y'all Gotta Come
Dam Metal Jam Mix

The Chosen One Mix was edited for use on The Sopranos.

Unlike most TV shows, The Sopranos didn't use theme music composed for the show. Instead, they used real songs. This costs a lot, but is much more realistic and can make a big difference in a scene. The producers spent a lot of time picking out music for the show.

This song was used in The Simpsons episode "Papa's Got A Brand New Badge." (thanks, Campo - Sydney, Australia)

Low
When you're feeling low
And you just don't know where to run to

And you feel like you're all alone
If you need something to believe in
If you're looking for a light to guide you home

Cannonball Song Chart

The Breeders started as the side project of Kim Deal, who was with the Pixies at the time, but often at odds with their frontman, Frank Black. Written and sung by Deal, "Cannonball" made the US Hot 100 - something the Pixies never did.

Deal formed the band with Tonya Donelly of Throwing Muses (and later, Belly), and they released their first album, Pod, in 1990 (Kim played bass in the Pixies; she switched to guitar with The Breeders). The Safari EP followed in 1992, with Kim's sister Kelley Deal joining the band. Donelly left for Last Splash, with drummer Jim MacPherson coming on board to round out the band with Josephine Wiggs. When Kelley got caught in a drug bust in 1995, Kim morphed the band into the Amps, which released the album Pacer in 1995. The Breeders would return in 2002 with the album Title TK.

The song was originally titled "Grunggae," a combination of 'grunge' and 'reggae.' The name came from Kim Deal thinking the accented riff resembled the accent in Reggae.

The British music paper Melody Maker named this song their Single of the Year for 1993.

Mojo magazine May 2013 asked Kim Deal if she had a sense this song would be a hit. She replied: "Did we record a song that opened with me saying, 'Check 1-2,' and then loads of vocal feedback from my brother's harmonica mike, and think, 'This is destined for radio?' That was the sort of thing that didn't get you played on the radio then. We thought no one would play it."

The loud/soft dynamics in this song is something Kim Deal brought over from the Pixies. The titular cannonball could portend the aggressive part of the track. Most songs with the cannonball metaphor (Supertramp, Damien Rice) use it to indicate a person who is reckless in love. Deal's lyrics are designed to complement the melody; we wouldn't recommend reading too much into lyrics like "I'll be your whatever you want, the bong in this Reggae song."

The video was directed by Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon.

The single was released as a 4-song EP, which also included a cover version of Aerosmith's "Lord of the Thighs."

Nissan used this in commercials for the 2000 Sentra. The song was also heard in trailers for the South Park movie.

Action Cat Song Chart

The first song to be heard from Gerard Way's debut solo album, Hesitant Alien, finds him singing from the point of view of someone who has just left a serious relationship. It describes the fears and feelings they experience in the wake of their breakup.

Speaking with Rock Sound magazine, Way said the Hesitant Alien album title is a reflection of how he looks at himself as a person. "It's not about [alienation] from the angle of being an outsider, but rather that I don't exactly fit in, and that's OK," he explained . "That's how I fit - by not fitting. I constantly evolve; I go up, I go down, I move from side-to-side; that's my role in music."

This was Kerrang!'s song of the year for 2014. They said: "Riding a fuzzed-out guitar and packed with delicious, sugar-coated vocal melodies, this was a pure power-pop rush to die for."

Way explained the song's meaning to Kerrang!: "Lyrically, it feels like it's about starting over," he said. "It feels like it's about rediscovering having fun again."

Trying Lyrics

Could you let down your hair
And be transparent for a while
Just a little while
See if your human after all
Honesty is a hard attribute to find
When we all want to seem like we've got it all figured out
I may be the first to say that I don't have a clue
I don't have all the answers
And god I pretend like I do just
Trying to find my way
Trying to find my way the best that I know how

Well I haven't memorized all the cute things to say
But I'm working on it
Maybe I'll master this art for today
I'd I quote all the line off the top of my head
And you'd be
I don't understand all of these things Ive read
I'm just trying to find my way
Trying to find my way
Trying to find my way the best that I know how

Well I haven't drawn it or figured out quite yet
But even if it takes my whole life
To get to where I need to be
And if I should fall to the bottom of the end
I'll be one step back to you
I'm trying to find my way
Trying to find my way
Oh, I'm trying to find my way
Trying to find my way

Lead singer Jason Wade wrote this about trying to cope with the divorce of his parents. After the divorce, Wade moved with his mother to Seattle. He is now a huge Nirvana fan.

Wade: "I wrote "Trying" when I was 15. It's about the same kind of spiritual searching as "Only One." After my parents got divorced, I wrote the lyrics to it, then learned how to play guitar and came up with the melody. The song's about finding your way in life. I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do, what I wanted to become, not just in music but also who I was as a person. I consider "Trying" my first song, the first one I didn't scrap. The funny thing is, I can relate to it more now than I could back then. Sometimes I think, "Man where did that come from?" I still feel the same emotion when I play it, so I guess it's pretty timeless; people can relate to it, no matter how old they are." (thanks, Patti - Mahopac, NY)

Wade is now disillusioned with the Christian church because of its reaction to some of his fathers "mistakes." Wade believes in mercy and love, his father was shunned.

Gerard Way penned this song with James Dewees, who was MCR's touring keyboardist from 2007. He references in the second verse The Smiths song, William, It Was Really Nothing. The '80s British band has had a big influence on him.

Way initially previewed this song at the Graphic festival in Sydney, Australia on October 5, 2013. He said at the the time the song is about a group of jewel thieves, which isn't very apparent from the lyrical content. "Everything is fine," Way explained. "Then everything goes horribly wrong."

Gerard's brother and former My Chemical Romance bassist Mikey Way supplied backing vocals for this track.

The video was directed by Jennifer Juniper Stratford, who works on web series, public access shows and music videos for Telefantasy Studios, which specializes in analog effects that were popular in the 1970s and '80s. The retro look is designed to stand out among far more polished music videos.

Aqualung Lyrics

Sitting on a park bench
Eying up little girls with bad intent
Snots running down his nose
Greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes, hey, Aqualung

Drying in the cold sun
Watching as the frilly panties run, hey, Aqualung
Feeling like a dead duck
Spitting out pieces of his broken luck, oh, Aqualung

Sun streaking cold, an old man wandering lonely
Taking time, the only way he knows
Leg hurting bad as he bends to pick a dog end
He goes down to a bog and warms his feet

Feeling alone, the army's up the road
Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea
Aqualung, my friend, don't you start away uneasy
You poor old sod, you see it's only me

Do you still remember
December's foggy freeze
When the ice that clings on to your beard
It was screaming agony

Hey and you snatch your rattling last breaths
With deep-sea diver sounds
And the flowers bloom like
Madness in the spring

Sun streaking cold, an old man wandering lonely
Taking time, the only way he knows
Leg hurting bad as he bends to pick a dog end
He goes down to a bog and warms his feet

Feeling alone, the army's up the road
Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea
Aqualung my friend don't you start away uneasy
You poor old sod, you see it's only me

Aqualung my friend don't you start away uneasy
You poor old sod, you see it's only me

Sitting on a park bench
Eying up little girls with bad intent
Snots running down his nose
Greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes, hey Aqualung

Drying in the cold sun
Watching as the frilly panties run, hey Aqualung
Feeling like a dead duck
Spitting out pieces of his broken luck, hey Aqualung

Oh Aqualung

Aqualung Song Chart

This song deals with our reaction to the homeless population. Jethro Tull vocalist and flute player Ian Anderson wrote the song and called it "a guilt-ridden song of confusion about how you deal with beggars, the homeless." Elaborating in the 40th anniversary reissue of the album, he said, "It's about our reaction, of guilt, distaste, awkwardness and confusion, all these things that we feel when we're confronted with the reality of the homeless. You see someone who's clearly in desperate need of some help, whether it's a few coins or the contents of your wallet, and you blank them out. The more you live in that business-driven, commercially-driven lifestyle, you can just cease to see them.

In this song, Aqualung is a homeless man with poor hygiene. Ian Anderson wrote it about a character he made up based on actual photographs of transient men. Ian's wife at the time, Jennie, was an amateur photographer and had brought the pictures for Ian to look at. Many of the lyrics are Ian describing the men in the pictures.

Jennie also wrote a few lyrics to go with the pictures, which earned her a songwriting credit, so she receives half the royalties from the song. She and Anderson divorced in 1974.

This is Jethro Tull's most famous song, but it was not released as a single. Ian Anderson told us why: "Because it was too long, it was too episodic, it starts off with a loud guitar riff and then goes into rather more laid back acoustic stuff. Led Zeppelin at the time, you know, they didn't release any singles. It was album tracks. And radio sharply divided between AM radio, which played the 3-minute pop hits, and FM radio where they played what they called deep cuts. You would go into a album and play the obscure, the longer, the more convoluted songs in that period of more developmental rock music. But that day is not really with us anymore, whether it be classic rock stations that do play some of that music, but they are thin on the ground, and they too know that they've got to keep it short and sharp and cheerful, and provide the blue blanket of familiar sounding music and get onto the next set of commercial breaks, because that's what pays the radio station costs of being on the air. So pragmatic rules apply."

An "Aqualung" is a portable breathing apparatus for divers. Anderson envisioned the homeless man getting that nickname because of breathing problems. He got the idea from watching a TV show called Sea Hunt, where there was a lot of heavy underwater breathing, and where the main character wore an Aqualung. What Anderson didn't know is that Aqualung was a brand name, and the Aqualung Corporation of North America took legal action after the album came out. The case was eventually dropped, but the threat of a lawsuit was troubling to Anderson. For more about the Aqualung and how it relates to diving, check it out in Song Images .

The album cover was a watercolor painting of the character Aqualung created by the artist Burton Silverman. Jethro Tull's manager Terry Ellis commissioned him after seeing his work in Time magazine. Burton took some photos of Ian Anderson wearing his old overcoat before he painted the cover, and the resulting work looked a lot like a haggard version of Ian, who was not pleased with the painting. Despite Anderson's objections, the cover became an iconic image in rock, but it also resulted in another lawsuit over where the image could be used - Burton felt the band didn't have the rights to use it on T-shirts and other promotional materials.

The unusual audio effect you hear in this song is called "telephone burbles" where you remove all frequencies except for a narrow band around the 1,000 hertz mark. This is to reproduce the sound of a telephone. As Ian Anderson told us: "It's also like when you're addressing a crowd through a megaphone. Or even perhaps the tinny sound of a voice trumpet, which is a non-active megaphone. It's a form of address. It's the sound that woke up young pilots in 1941 and sent them into the skies to battle the Hun. This is the sound of the Tannoy, the calling to arms of young men going up in their Hurricanes and Spitfires. It's something that's very much part of the blood of an Englishman."

Like most songs on the album, this one has a cold ending. That's because Anderson knew he would have to perform these songs on stage, where he liked to have a definitive ending to a song rather than a fade out.

The character Aqualung is mentioned in another song on the album, "Cross-Eyed Mary," which is also a character Anderson created.

Martin Barre's solo in this song was rated #25 in Guitar World's 100 Greatest Guitar Solos reader's poll. (thanks, Mark - Madison, WI)

This song is mentioned in the movie Anchorman after Will Ferrell plays a riff from it on his Jazz flute and says, "Hey, Aqualung." (thanks, Brad Nash - Rochester Hills, MI)

English singer-songwriter Matthew Hales performs under the name Aqualung after this song. Hales had a #7 hit in the UK in 2002 with "Strange and Beautiful (I'll Put a Spell on You)."

This warped R&B take on Peaches' "F--k The Pain Away" features Swedish singer Erik Hassle. "We always look for something with an edge," Gorgon City's Matthew Robson-Scott told Q magazine.

Robson-Scott told Q the story of the song: "We wrote this in LA at Capitol Records," he said. "This track always reminds us of watching Erik in the vocal booth with sunglasses on completely going in singing this song!"

"When Erik first told us his idea for the hook, we weren't sure 'f--k the pain away' is pretty strong. When he sang it it just sounded right! It's our most R&B sounding track on Sirens, it's a seduction song, but with a kind of dark side to it."

I just need this to be alright
I can't feel this another night

I can't take this I come unglued
I might breakdown in front of you
Necessary to medicate
I'm not sleeping, can't stay awake

Can't see through this
Too much Pressure
Drowning in this
Too much pressure

If you need me I'll be here
Half unconscious to escape my fear

I can't take this I come unglued
I might breakdown in front of you
Necessary to medicate
I'm not sleeping, can't stay awake

Can't see through this
Too much pressure
Drowning in this
Too much pressure

My head hurts this shit isn't getting me high
My chest is so tight I think I am going to die
My stomach's in knots and the room starts to spin
As I wait for this Valium to slowly kick in

Can't see through this
Too much pressure
Drowning in this
Too much pressure

From Eden Lyrics

Babe
There's something tragic about you
Something so magic about you
Don't you agree?

Babe
There's something lonesome about you
Something so wholesome about you
Get closer to me

No tired sighs, no rolling eyes, no irony
No 'who cares', no vacant stares, no time for me

Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago
Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on its sword
Innocence died screaming, honey, ask me I should know
I slithered here From Eden just to sit outside your door

Babe, there's something wretched about this
Something so precious about this
Oh what a sin

To the strand a picnic plan for you and me
A rope in hand for your other man to hang from a tree

Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago
Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on its sword
Innocence died screaming, honey, ask me I should know
I slithered here from Eden just to sit outside your door

Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago
Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on its sword
Innocence died screaming, honey, ask me I should know
I slithered here from Eden just to hide outside your door

Hozier told The Sun about this track's meaning: "It's a song about idolizing somebody from a distance," he said. "I wrote it jokingly from the perspective of the devil."

Hozier expanded on the song to The Sunday Telegraph: "'From Eden' is spoken from the Devil's point of view," he explained. "I always loved in blues music how the Devil can be a character who walks and talks. So awful is your state that it seems to be a presence around you."

"I don't really spend time thinking about the nature of God," he added, "but I'm interested in what people say about God, how it is used to control people and change policies in the physical realm."

That you don't ever want to see me again
And your brother's gonna kill me and he's six feet ten
I guess you'd call it cowardice
But I'm not prepared to go on like this

I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I Can't Stand Losing You
I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you
I can't stand losing you

I see you've sent my letters back
And my L.P. records and they're all scratched
I can't see the point in another day
When nobody listens to a word I say
You can call it lack of confidence
But to carry on living doesn't make no sense

I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,

I guess this is our last goodbye
And you don't care, so I won't cry
And you'll be sorry when I'm dead
When all this guilt will be on your head
I guess you'd call it suicide
But I'm too full, to swallow my pride

I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing.
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing,
I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing you

Can't Stand Losing You Song Chart

This song is about a teenager who commits suicide when he loses his girlfriend. It took Sting only a few minutes to write the lyrics - they are not supposed to be deep and meaningful, but more of a joke.

A track from the band's first album, this was the second single The Police released, following "Roxanne."

This was the first Police song to chart: it hit #42 in the UK when it was released in 1978. A year later, after The Police became widely known, it was re-released and went to #2.

The single came with some interesting artwork: a picture of a hooded body hanging from a rope, indicating the boy in the song who killed himself. The hooded boy is the band's drummer, Stewart Copeland. (thanks, Jeff - Kendall Park, NJ)

The BBC banned this because of its morbid content.

The single was released in a variety of different colors, which have become collector's items.

Andy Summers used a processor called an Echoplex on his guitar. The device allowed him to continuously loop his guitar licks, creating a layered sound.

At live shows, The Police would improvise the middle of this to fill time, since they didn't have a lot of songs. The improvised jam eventually turned into the song "Reggatta De Blanc," which became the title track to their next album.

Old Boots, New Dirt Lyrics

A cup of coffee from a waitress I ain't ever met
She asked, "Are you just passing through?"
I smiled and said, "I don't know yet"
I walked around the town square
Down the street to where
I met the preacher and the old courthouse band
Yeah, nothing helps you start again like

Old Boots, New Dirt, no reminders
I've got a feeling this town will get me over her
You've been through what I've been through man
Nothing feels better than old boots, new dirt

There's a thousand faces, I ain't seen before
The only history that I can see is from a civil war
It's good for me to look around
And go down roads she ain't been down
No memories of our used to be's, set me free

Old boots, new dirt, no reminders
I've got a feeling this town will get me over her
You've been through what I've been through man
Nothing feels better than old boots, new dirt

Old boots, new dirt, one step closer
Yeah, I think I'm gonna like it here, yeah

You've been through what I've been through man
Nothing feels better than
Nothing else is gonna feel like old boots, new dirt
Old boots and new dirt
Ooh, old boots and new dirt

Old Boots, New Dirt Song Chart

This Neil Thrasher, Lee Thomas Miller and Tom Shapiro penned song is the title track of Jason Aldean's sixth album. "That title and that song, 'Old Boots, New Dirt,' is about starting with a clean slate," Aldean explained. "I'm the same dude, but we're gonna start over and hit some uncharted territory here."

Jason Aldean expanded on the track's meaning to Entertainment.ie : "The song talks about coming out the other side of a break-up and trying to get as far away from that as you can," he said. "You don't really know where you are headed, but you're going to figure it out as you go. A lot of times, that's what songwriting is about; it's about finding a new and inventive ways to say the same thing sometimes. I think this was a way to say that in a way that hasn't been said before."
