Jeany loved charlie with all of her might
But she missed the boy bad when he was working all night
Every day was the same but she wanted more
So Jeany took to leaving out of every door saying

[Chorus]
Sometimes the wheels just start rollin'
Don't always know where you're goin'
May not leave you with a whole lot to say, yeah yeah
But baby ain't that always the way
Oh baby ain't that always the way
Reverend Jim was a preaching one night
He was a layin' his hands a just a little too tight
Folks didn't know that those streets made of gold
Were paved with there money
Jim headed down the road singing

[Chorus]
Tommy practiced hard just to play the guitar
Gonna make a million dollars - gonna be a big star
He fell In love with Betty and that all changed
He's happy playin' his guitar out on the front porch swing singing

[Chorus]

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
