Turn out the lights
Turn on the radio
Hang on tight
Baby, take you a road

Green means stop, honey
Red means go
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road

Highway 9 has just been closed
The Lynchburg Ferry runs a little too slow
Down on Main Street they don't know
How to go pull back down Wallisville Road

You've got to turn out the lights
Turn on the radio
Hang on tight
Baby take you a road
Green means stop, honey
Red means go
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road

You're gonna turn out the lights
Turn on the radio
Hang on tight
Baby take you a road
Green means stop, honey
Red means go
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road

Don't tell mama
Mama'll wanna go
'Cause daddy used to take her
When my daddy did the road
Sneakin' her 'round for the Saturday show, and
Goin' for a ride down Wallisville Road

Tell her turn out the lights
Turn on the radio
Hang on tight, baby
Take you a road
Green means stop, honey
Red means go
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road

All them girls, baby
I used to know
They're walking down the side
Of the Wallisville Road
All them girls
I had to let them go
So I could take you for a ride down
Down Wallisville Road

Because turn out the lights
Turn on the radio
Hang on tight, baby
Take you a road
Ninety miles an hour
Ninety more to go

Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road

All them girls, baby
I used to know
They're walkin' down the side
Of the Wallisville Road
All them girls
I had to let 'em go
So I could take you for a ride
Down Wallisville Road

We're gonna turn out the lights
Turn on the radio
Hang on tight baby
Take you a road
Ninety miles an hour
Ninety more to go
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road

Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road

Goin' for a ride
Goin' for a ride
Goin' for a ride
Goin' for a ride
Goin' for a ride
Goin' for a ride
Goin' for a ride
Goin' for a ride
Down Wallisville Road

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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/
