Hand me a prayer book
I need to be forgiven
I'm not even driving
I'm just being driven

I've got a burning fire in me
A potential for sin
Inspiration from the Devil
I'm full of temptation

I've got affection for trouble
Hear the sirens scream
I want to go somewhere
Where I've never been

Whole lot of people hear my plea
If you got an emotion, you got to set it free
Whole lot of people hear my call
I tell you no lies and that's all

Oh, bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll, rock-n-roll
Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll, rock
Rock, rock, rock
Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll

Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll
There's no easy way down
It takes some time, it takes some time
It takes some time to be a hero

I'll show you how to do it
I'll show how it's done
You can't let people go
You got to make them come

Let the lightning strike
The thunder roll
Let me tell you, buddy
That's rock-n-roll

Whole lot of people hear my plea
If you got an emotion, you got to set it free
Whole lot of people hear my call
I'll tell you no lies and that's all

Oh, bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll, rock-n-roll
Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll, rock
Rock, rock, rock
Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll

Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll
There's no easy way down

Whole lot of people hear my plea
If you got an emotion, you got to set it free
Whole lot of people hear my call
I'll tell you no lies and that's all

Oh, bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll, rock-n-roll
Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll, rock
Rock, rock, rock
Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll

Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll
There's no easy way down

Bless my soul, rock-n-roll
Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll
Bless my soul, it's rock-n-roll

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
