You get a plus if you get them right!
What TV show is this theme song from?
#1)
Got a call from an old friend
We used to be real close
Said he couldn't go on the American way
Closed the shop, sold the house
Bought a ticket to the West Coast
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.
CHORUS
I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
Go ahead with your own life, and leave me alone
I never said you had to offer me a second chance
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
I still belong, don't get me wrong
And you can speak your mind
But not on my time
They will tell you you can't sleep alone
In a strange place
Then they'll tell you you can't sleep
With somebody else
But sooner or later you sleep
In your own space
Either way it's okay
You wake up with yourself.
#2)
Making your way in the world today
Takes everything you've got;
Taking a break from all your worries
Sure would help a lot.
Wouldn't you like to get away?
All those night when you've got no lights,
The check is in the mail;
And your little angel
Hung the cat up by it's tail;
And your third fiance didn't show;
Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came;
You want to be where you can see,
Our troubles are all the same;
You want to be where everybody knows your name.
Roll out of bed, Mr. Coffee's dead;
The morning's looking bright;
And your shrink ran off to Europe,
And didn't even write;
And your husband wants to be a girl;
Be glad there's one place in the world
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came;
You want to go where people know,
People are all the same;
You want to go where everybody knows your name.
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came;
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came;
(fade out)
#3)
Just two good old boys,
Never meaning no harm.
Beats all you ever you saw,
Been in trouble with the law
Since the day they were born.
Straightening the curves,
Flattenin the hill.
Someday the mountain
Might get them but the law never will.
Makin their way-
The only way they know how
That's just a little bit more
Than the law will allow.
Makin their way-,
The only way they know how.
That's just a little bit more
Than the law will allow.
Just two good old boys
Couldn't change if they could.
Fightin' the system like two modern-day Robin Hoods.
#4)
Look at what's happened to me-,
I can't believe it myself.
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world,
It should've been somebody else.
Believe it or not,
I'm walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free-.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.
It's like a light of a new day-,
It came from out of the blue.
Breaking me out of the spell I was in,
Making all of my wishes come true-.
Believe it or not,
I'm walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free-.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
Schlemile, Schlemozzle, Hausenfeffer Incorporated.
We're gonna do it.
Give us any chance we'll take it,
Leave us any rule we'll break it.
We're gonna make our dreams come true.
Doin' it our way.
Nothing's gonna turn us back now,
Straight ahead and on the track now.
We're gonna make our dreams come true.
Doin' it our way.
There's nothing we won't try.
Never heard the word im-possible.
This time, there's no stopping us-.
We're gonna do it.
On your mark, get set and go now.
Got a dream and we just know now.
We're gonna make our dreams come true.
And we'll do it our way,
Yes our way.
Make all our dreams come true.
And we'll do it our way,
Yes our way.
Make all our dreams- come true- for me and you-.
