Help me make it through the night.
Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose, let it fall
Lay it soft against my skin
Like the shadow on the wall

Come and lay down by my side
Till the early morning light
All I’m taking is your time
Help me make it through the night

I don't care what's right or wrong
I won't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
'Cause tonight I need a friend

Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

I don't care what's right or wrong
I won't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
'Cause tonight I need a friend

Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

I don't want to be alone
Help me make it through the night

1. Whatever Gets You Thru The Night
'salright, 'salright
It's your money or life 'salright, 'salright
Don't need a sword to cut through flowers oh no, oh no
Whatever gets you through your life 'salright, 'salright
Do it wrong or do it right 'salright, 'salright
Don't need a watch to waste your time oh no, oh no

6. Thanks.
And you've read Ishmael too! One day, I'll get off my behind and read the other two Quinn books in that series. I liked it though. :D

7. You gotta read 'My Ishmael'. It's actually a better book. And...
takes the message further and is more effective.

And a female heroine (a 12 year old girl), to boot.

2. Help Me Make It Through the Yard
Help Me Make It Through the Yard

Take the rosebush from my hair,
Lord, it has a lot of thorns,
What's the sprinkler doing on
At this hour of the morn?

Comin' home at five a.m.,
Lord, the sidewalk sure is hard,
Guess I drank too much again,
Help me make it through the yard.

I don't care what's right or wrong,
I'm too drunk to even stand,
I ain't asking your assistance,
But you're standing on my hand

Put some coffee on the stove,
And we'll try to start the car,
Let me get Help me make it through the yard.

3. Thanks, I needed that. I thought, for a second...
that this was going to be about that freeper that did the faceplant while stealing signs.
