The Pretenders vs. Carrie Underwood



I’ll Stand By You
The Pretenders
Oh
Why you look so sad
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don't
Be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
'Cause I've seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothin' you confess
Could make me love you less

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you

So
If you're mad
Get mad
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey
What you got to hide
I get angry too
Well I'm a lot like you
When you're standing at the crossroads
And don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
'Cause even if you're wrong

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in
Into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you

And when
When the night falls on you baby
You're feelin' all alone
You won't be on your own

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in
Into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Yeah

Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
No no no no no
Take me in
Into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you



I’ll Stand By You
Carrie Underwood
Oh

TFT: The Pretenders


Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world.  For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously fervent rants of rebellion.  Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.


My City Was Gone (Ohio)
The Pretenders
All right Diane
This is a song I wrote about
Mt beautiful hometown
Akron
Ohio
Let’s hear it for Akron

I went back to Ohio
But my city was gone
There was no train station
There was no downtown
Southtown it had disappeared
All my favorite places
My city had been pulled down
Reduced to parking spaces

Hey
Oh
Where did you go
Ohio

I went back to Ohio
But my family was gone
I stood on the back porch
There was nobody home
I was stunned and amazed
My childhood memories
Saw this world past
Like the wind through the trees

I Said
Hey
Oh
Where did you go
Ohio

I went back to Ohio
But my pretty countryside
Had been paved down the middle
By a government that had no pride
The farms of Ohio
Had been replaced by shopping malls
And Muzak filled the air
From Seneca to Cuyahoga Falls

I Said
Hey
Oh
Where did you go
Ohio

Where did you go
Ohio


Back On The Chain Gang
The Pretenders
I found a picture of you
Oh oh oh oh
What hijacked my world that night
To a place in the past
We've been cast out of
Oh oh oh oh
Now we're back in the fight

We're back on the train
Yeah
Oh
Back on the chain gang

A circumstance beyond our control
Oh oh oh oh
The phone
The TV
And the News of the World
Got in the house like a pigeon from Hell
Oh oh oh oh
Threw sand in our eyes
And descended like flies

Put us back on the train
Yeah
Oh
Back on the chain gang

The powers that be
That force us to live like we do
Bring me to my knees
When I see what they've done to you
But I'll die as I stand here today
Knowing that deep in my heart
They'll fall to ruin one day
For making us part

I found a picture of you
Oh oh oh oh
Those were the happiest days of my life
Like a break in the battle
Was your part
Oh oh oh oh
In the wretched life of a lonely heart

Now we're back on the train
Yeah
Oh
Back on the chain gang

10cc vs. The Pretenders

 Link: [10cc]



I’m Not In Love
10cc
I’m not in love
So don’t forget it
It’s just a silly phase
I’m goin’ through
And just because
I call you up
Don’t get me wrong
Don’t think you’ve got it made
I’m not in love
No no
It’s because

I’d like to see you
But then again
That doesn’t mean
You mean that much to me
So if I call you
Don’t make a fuss
Don’t tell your friends
About the two of us
I’m not in love
No no
It’s because

Be quiet
Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry

I keep your picture
Upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain
That’s lyin’ there
So don’t you ask me
To give it back
I know you know it doesn’t mean
That much to me
I’m not in love
No no
It’s because

Ooh
You’ll wait a long time for me
Ooh
You’ll wait a long time
Ooh
You’ll wait a long time for me
Ooh
You’ll wait a long time
I’m not in love
I’m not in love
