Feelin' young and full of fun
Hangin' out with my crew
Hot to trot and about to pop
Tryin' to find some girl to get into

There she was fine as can be
Hair braided down to her knees
She took me home, she turned me out
But before sunrise she said I must leave

It was a cold chill on a summer night
Never thought that girlie wouldn't treat me right
It was a cold chill on a summer day
Never thought that girl would dog me out that way
It was a cold chill on a summer morn
Never cried like a baby since the day I was born
It was a cold chill on a summer eve
Never had no chopper bring me to my knees

I was feeling so trustin'
Gave it all right down to the bone
But she did me wrong
On a summer night

Cold, cold, cold, cold
Cold, cold, cold, cold
Cold chill
Cold chill

Cold, cold, cold, cold
Cold, cold, cold, cold
Cold chill
There's a cold chill, yeah

Far from meek, and feelin' chic
Refusing to concede defeat
There I was same crew, same time
Same club we kicked it at the previous week

I asked her how could she have the nerve
To treat me with such disgrace
She blinked her eyes, smiled, apologized
Threw her drink right in my face

It was a cold chill on a summer night
Never thought that girlie wouldn't treat me right
It was a cold chill on a summer day
Never thought that girl would dog me out that way
It was a cold chill on a summer morn
Never cried like a baby since the day I was born
It was a cold chill on a summer eve
Never had no chopper bring me to my knees

I was feelin' so trustin'
Gave it all right down to the bone
But she did me wrong
On a summer night

Cold, cold, cold, cold
Cold, cold, cold, cold
On a summer night (cold chill)
A cold chill (on a summer night)

Cold, cold, cold, cold
Cold, cold, cold, cold
On a summer night (cold chill)
A cold chill, yeah

I don't think I feel like
A cold chill
A cold chill
A cold chill, a cold chill, ow

Weekends came and weekends passed
But not the yearning in my heart
And there she was to light the spark
Like she did right from the very start

I took no time, drove to her house
Got deep into a passion high
I heard a knock, the turn of a key
And the voice of another guy

It was a cold chill on a summer night
Never thought that girlie wouldn't treat me right
It was a cold chill on a summer day
Never thought that girl would dog me out that way
It was a cold chill on a summer morn
Never cried like a baby since the day I was born
It was a cold chill on a summer eve
Never had no chopper bring me to my knees

I was feelin' so trustin'
Gave it all right down to the bone
But she did me wrong
On a summer night

Cold, cold, cold, cold
Cold, cold, cold, cold
On a summer night (cold chill)
A cold chill (on a summer night)

Cold, cold, cold, cold
Cold, cold, cold, cold
On a summer night (cold chill)
It was a cold chill, yeah

It was a cold chill
Like standing in the deep freeze
A cold chill
Like when snow's above your knees
Cold chill
Like sitting at the North Pole
A cold chill
Wearing not one stitch of clothes
A cold chill
Like a winter Chicago night
A cold chill
Twenty ice cubes down your back for spite
A cold chill
Stranded in sub-zero degrees
A cold chill
Laid out on the arctic sea
Cold chill
When your fingers get frost bite
A cold chill
Buried beneath ten feet of ice
Cold chill
Baby, that ain't so nice
A cold chill

A cold chill

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
