THE RACONTEUR’s (JACK WHITE) beautifully covering NANCY SINATRA’s “BANG BANG”~!!! this song is so god damn powerful. start at about 2:30 if you’re impatient… fuck! thanks sammy!

lyrics:
I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight

Bang bang
He shot me down, bang bang
I hit the ground , bang bang
That awful sound, bang bang
My baby shot me down

Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
Remember when we used to play

Bang bang
I shot you down, bang bang
You hit the ground , bang bang
That awful sound, bang bang
I used to shoot you down

Music played and people sang…
Just for me the church bells rang…

Now he’s gone I don’t know why
And till this day some times I cry
He didn’t even say goodbye
He didn’t take the time to lie

Bang bang
He shot me down, bang bang
I hit the ground , bang bang
That awful sound, bang bang
My baby shot me down.

lyrics:
Drag your shadow down the street
Is it you I was to meet
With your saints there on a chain
Waiting on another rain

And I’m falling down
Where the waves will surround
To the roll and the pound
Of the wild, wild sea
Talking sweet to me

Marching in a slow parade
There are ashes where you laid
Sometimes I don’t mind at all
And sometimes head against the wall
The tide will bring and tide will take
Find another horse to break
You’re just a rider on a wheel
In a dream where love was real

And I’m going down
Where the waves will surround
To the roll and the pound
Of the wild, wild sea
Talking sweet to me

lyrics:
How many more days can you hold out
How much longer can you wait she asked
There was a time I thought I, I could answer
But my tongue gets tied as my thoughts drift away

Glory, Glory – Hallelujah
The sun is shining, shining down
Glory, Glory – Hallelujah
I’m alive and I’m feeling, feeling fine

All those simple thoughts all those peaceful dreams
Share the space with a hard worked, hard worked day
But it’s the little things, the little things not expectation
That make life worth living, worth living

Glory, Glory – Hallelujah
The sun is shining, shining down
Glory, Glory – Hallelujah
And the world Lord, world is fine
Glory, Glory – Hallelujah
The sun is shining, shining down
Glory, Glory – Hallelujah
I’m alive and I’m feeling Lord, feeling, feeling, feeling fine
