Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- It'll All Work Out .. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers


She wore faded jeans and soft black leather
She had eyes so blue they looked like weather
When she needed me I wasn't around
That's the way it goes, it'll all work out

There were times apart, there were times together
I was pledged to her for worse or better
When it mattered most I let her down
That's the way it goes, it'll all work out

It'll all work out eventually
Better off with him than here with me

It'll all work out eventually
Maybe better off with him than here with me

Now the wind is high and the rain is heavy
And the water's rising in the levee
Still I think of her when the sun goes down
It never goes away, but it all works out


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- My Father's Gun .. Elton John


From this day on I own my father's gun
We dug his shallow grave beneath the sun
I laid his broken body down below the southern land
It wouldn't do to bury him where any Yankee stands

I'll take my horse and I'll ride the northern plain
To wear the colour of the greys and join the fight again
I'll not rest until I know the cause is fought and won
From this day on until I die I'll wear my father's gun

I'd like to know where the riverboat sails tonight
To New Orleans well that's just fine alright
`Cause there's fighting there and the company needs men
So slip us a rope and sail on round the bend

As soon as this is over we'll go home
To plant the seeds of justice in our bones
To watch the children growing and see the women sewing
There'll be laughter when the bells of freedom ring


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- io (This Time Around) .. Helen Stellar


This time around
You can be anyone


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Come Pick Me Up .. Ryan Adams


When they call your name
Will you walk right up?
With a smile on your face?
Or will you cower in fear
In your favorite sweater
With an old love letter?

I wish you would
I wish you would

Come pick me up
Take me out
Fuck me up
Steal my records
Screw all my friends
They're all full of shit
With a smile on your face
And then do it again

I wish you would

When you're walking downtown
Do you wish I was there?
Do you wish it was me?
With the windows clear and the mannequins eyes
Do they all look like mine?

You know you could
I wish you would

Come pick me up
Take me out
Fuck me up
Steal my records
Screw all my friends behind my back
With a smile on your face
And then do it again

I wish you would

I wish you'd make up my bed
So I could make up my mind
Try it for sleeping instead
Maybe you'll rest sometime

I wish I could


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Where to Begin .. My Morning Jacket


Up and up and up I climb
When I came up I was so far behind
My head takes a lickin'
But my heart keeps on tickin
Just the same

Always startin' over but somehow
I always know where to begin

Round and round and round I ride
And just when I looked I hadn't even began
To feel the effect
A cool, dark fever
On the brain

That feelin' takin' over
Like a holy rollercoaster
To the grave

How can I await the day
The last the night I'm here to see
How do I await the mother lode

It's the art of feelin naked in your clothes

Again, again, again I tried
That's how I knew I would never be denied
That face in the mirror
Who could it be, it was my own

That cool, dark figure
That's when I knew I was alone

On and on and on I drive
when will I know I've finally arrived
So far I've gone, so far to go
It never ends

Always startin over but somehow I always know where to begin
Always startin over but somehow I always know where to begin
Always startin over but somehow I always know where to begin


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Long Ride Home .. Patty Griffin


Long black limousine
Shiniest car I've ever seen
The back seat is nice and clean
She rides as quiet as a dream
Someone dug a hole six long feet in the ground
I said goodbye to you and I threw my roses down
Ain't nothing left at all in the end of being proud
With me riding in a race car, and you flying through the clouds

I've had some time to think about you
And watch the stone set like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long ride home

One day I took your tiny hand
Put your finger in the wedding band
Your daddy gave a piece of land
We laid ourselves the best of plans
Forty years go by with someone laying in your bed
Forty years of things you wish you'd never said
How hard would it have been to say some kinder words instead
I wonder as I stare up at the sky turning red

I've had some time to think about you
And watch the stone set like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long ride home

Headlights staring at the driveway
The house is dark as it can be
I go inside and all is silent
It seems as empty as the inside of me

I've had some time to think about you
And watch the stone set like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long, on the long
Oh the long, on the long
On the long ride home


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Sugar Blue .. Jeff Finlin


Hobo songs and railroad gin
Alcohol evaporates through skin
One gift
Sugar blue

I feel his kiss in your angry eyes
To find hello when you say goodbye
One gift
Sugar blue

Holding darkness up to the light
The other side shows through
The raven's song it breaks the night
And I rise from me through broken hues
Sugar blue

Going nowhere's somewhere's song
Finding right in what went wrong
One gift, sugar blue
One gift, sugar blue

Holding darkness up to the light
The other side shows through
The raven's song it breaks the night
And I rise from me through broken hues
Sugar blue


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Don't I Hold You .. Wheat


Don't I hold you like you want to be held
And don't I treat you like you want
And don't I love you like you want to be loved
And you're running away
And what's your name
Like I'm in the way
Don't I hold you like you want to be held
Don't I please you like you want
And don't I love you like you want to be loved
And you're running away
Ad what's your name
Like I'm in the way
and wasting too much time
Don't I
Don't I hold you like you want


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Shut Us Down .. Lindsey Buckingham


Oh you and I
We sure can dream
Of conversations
That might have been

I know that I
Treat you unkind
And long ago
I lost my mind

And even after
All these years
Oh I can't even
See you clear

I know that you
Must lie sometimes
To hide the truth
Your trying to find

*Chorus* Oh I wont shut us down
No I will stay around
As long as I can
As long as I can

And even after
All these years
Oh I cant even
See you clear

A child is born
Another dies
And every life
Has it's price

Chorus

Chorus

As long as I can
As long as I can
As long as I can
As long as I can


Thanks to Josh C. for these lyrics.


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Let It Out (Let it All Hang Out) .. The Hombres


(Spoken)
A preachment, dear friend
You are about to receive on John Barleycorn
Nicotine and the temptations of Eve

No parkin' by the sewer sign
Hot dog, my razors broke
Water drippin' up the spout
But I dont care, let it all hang out

Hangin' from a pine tree by my knees
Sun is shinin' through the shade
Nobody knows what its all about
It's too much, man, let it all hang out

Saw a man walkin' upside down
My T.V.s on the blink
Made Galileo look like a Boy Scout
Sorry 'bout that, let it all hang out

Sleep all day, drive all night
Brain my numb, can't stop now
For sure ain't no doubt
Keep an open mind, let it all hang out

It's rainin' inside a big brown moon
How does that mess you baby up, leg
Eatin' a Reuben sandwich with sauerkraut
Don't stop now, baby, let it all hang out

Let it all hang out
Let it all hang out
Let it all hang out


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Hard Times .. eastmountainsouth


let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears
while we all sup sorrow with the poor
there's a song that will linger forever in our ears
oh, hard times come again no more

'tis a song... a sigh of the weary
hard times... hard times come again no more
many days you have lingered around my cabin door
oh... hard times come again no more

while we seek mirth and beauty
and music light and gay
there are frail ones fainting at the door
though their voices are silent
their pleading looks will say
oh, hard times come again no more

'tis a song... a sigh of the weary
hard times... hard times come again no more
many days you have lingered around my cabin door
oh, hard times come again no more

'tis a sigh that is wafted across the troubled wave
'tis a wail that is heard upon the shore
'tis a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave
oh, hard times come again no more

'tis a song... a sigh of the weary
hard times... hard times come again no more
many days you have lingered around my cabin door
oh, hard times come again no more
oh, hard times come again no more


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Jesus Was a Crossmaker .. The Hollies


Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flying low for me

One time I trusted a stranger
'cause I heard his sweet song
And it was gently enticing me
Though there was something wrong
When I turned he was gone

[Chorus:]
Blinding me his song remains reminding me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Oh but Jesus was a crossmaker

[Chorus]

He wages war with the devil
A pistol by his side
And though he chases him out my window and
Won't give him a place to hide
He keeps his door open wide
Fighting him
He lights a lamp inviting him
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Oh but Jesus was a crossmaker

[Chorus]

I hear the thunder come rumbling
The light never looked so dim
I see the junction get nearer
And danger's in the wind
And either road's looking grim

Hiding me I flee desire's dividing me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Oh but Jesus was a crossmaker
Yeah but Jesus was a crossmaker


Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Square One .. Tom Petty


Had to find some higher ground
Had some fear to get around
You can't say what you don't know
Latter on won't work no more
Last time through I hid my tracks
So well I could not get back
Yeah my way was hard to find
Can't sell your soul for peace of mind

Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me my dear
It took a world of trouble, took a world of tears
It took a long time
To get back here

Try so hard to stand alone
Struggle to see past my nose
Always had more dogs than bones
I could never wear those clothes
It's a dark victory
You won and you also lost
Told her she was satisfied
But it never came across

Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me my dear
It took a world of trouble, took a world of tears
It took a long time
To get back here

music break

Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me my dear
It took a world of trouble, took a world of tears
It took a long time
To get back here

Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me my dear
It took a world of trouble, took a world of tears
It took a long time
To get back here

Elizabethtown soundtrack lyrics -- Same in Any Language .. I Nine


Sometime ago i met another hoe,
in a parking lot in tokyo,
He said everything roar in their sleep
the wonderless i see he didnt see

oh yeh
oh oh yeh

those postcards i sent to birmingham,
all the way from those windows of amsterdam,
i copped a grand from depersan,
just to fooll a man in another jam,

oh yeh,
oh oh yeh,

its the same in any language,
a brother is a brother,
if theres one thing i know,
its the same in any language,
where ever you go,

oh yeh

i ran outta jack in triply
oh those freedom fighters they were good to me,
they asked me all about tenersy,
and on one thing we did all agree,

oh yeh,
oh oh yeh,

its the same in any language,
a brother is a brother ,
if theres one thing i know it the same in, any language where ever you go.

where ever you go,
where are you going ?
where are you going?
where are you going to?

where are you going to ?
i say where are you going to?
