Remember the Titans lyrics

They're gonna put me in the movies

They're gonna make a big star out of me

We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely

And all I have to do is act naturally

[CHORUS]

Well, I bet you I'm gonna be a big star

Might win an Oscar you can never tell

The movie's gonna make me a big star,

'Cause I can play the part so well

Well, I hope you come and see me in the movie

Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?

Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?

I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains,

I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways,

I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests,

I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans,

I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard,

Listen, baby

Ain't no mountain high

Ain't no vally low

Ain't no river wide enough, baby

If you need me, call me

No matter where you are

No matter how far

Just call my name

I'll be there in a hurry

You don't have to worry

'Cause baby,

There ain't no mountain high enough

Ain't no valley low enough

Ain't no river wide enough

To keep me from getting to you

Remember the day

Express Yourself!

Express Yourself!

You don’t ever need help from nobody else. All you got to do now:

Express Yourself!

What ever you do, do it good.

What ever you do, do it good. All right...

It’s not what you look like, when you’re doin´ what you’re doin´.

It’s what you’re doin´ when you’re doin´ what you look like you’re doin´!

(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Beat is gettin' stronger

Beat is gettin' longer too-oo-oo

Music's soundin' good to me

But I wanna, said I wanna

I wanna take you higher

Yeah, let me take you higher

Baby, baby, let me light your fire

Ooo yeah, little bit higher

Boom-shaka-laka-laka

Boom-shaka-la-boonka-boo

(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Beat is nitty-gritty

Music's in your city too-oo-oo

Saturday night I was downtown

Working for the FBI

Sitting in a nest of bad men

Whiskey bottles piling high

Bootlegging boozer on the west side

Full of people who are doing wrong

Just about to call up the DA man

When I heard this woman singing a song

A pair of 45's made me open my eyes

My temperature started to rise

She was a long cool woman in a black dress

Just a 5-9 beautiful tall

Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey-ey, goodbye

He'll never love you, the way that I love you

'Cause if he did, no no, he wouldn't make you cry

He might be thrillin' baby but a-my love (my love, my love)

So dog-gone willin'

So kiss him (I wanna see you kiss him. Wanna see you kiss him)

Go on and kiss him goodbye, now

Na na na na, hey hey-ey, goodbye

Now I've been happy lately, thinking about the good things to come

And I believe it could be, something good has begun

Oh I've been smiling lately, dreaming about the world as one

And I believe it could be, some day it's going to come

Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train

Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl

I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day

When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest

in a big field of tall grass

I lay there in the sun and felt it caressing my face

And I fell asleep and dreamed

I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie

When I die and they lay me to rest

Gonna go to the place that's the best

When I lay me down to die

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky

That's where I'm gonna go when I die

When I die and they lay me to rest

Gonna go to the place that's the best

Prepare yourself you know it's a must

Gotta have a friend in Jesus

So you know that when you die

There's a place up ahead and I'm goin'

Just as fast as my feet can fly

Come away, come away if you're goin',

Leave the sinkin' ship behind.

[CHORUS:]

Come on the risin' wind,

We're goin' up around the bend.

Ooh!

Bring a song and a smile for the banjo,

Better get while the gettin's good,

Hitch a ride to the end of the highway

Where the neons turn to wood.

[CHORUS]

Ooh!
