Joe Cocker - N'oubliez Jamais Lyrics

Papa, why do you play all the same old songs?
Why do you sing with the melody?
'Cause down on the street
Somethings goin' on
There's a brand new beat
And a brand new song

He said in my life, there was so much anger
Still I have no regrets
Just like you, I was such a rebel
So dance, your own dance and never forget

"N'oubliez Jamais", I heard my father say
Every generation has it's way
A need to disobey
N'oubliez Jamais, it's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez Jamais

Mamma, why do you dance to the same old songs?
Why do you sing only the harmony?
'Cause down on the street
Something's goin' on
There's a brand new beat
And a brand new song

She said in my heart, there's a young girl's passion
For a life long duet
And someday soon
Someone's smile will haunt you
So sing your own song and never forget

"N'oubliez Jamais", I heard my father say
Every generation has it's way
A need to disobey
N'oubliez Jamais, it's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez Jamais

What is this game searching for love or fame?
It's all the same one of these days you say that
Love will be the cure, I'm not so sure

"N'oubliez Jamais", I heard my father say
Every generation has it's way
A need to disobey
N'oubliez Jamais, it's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez Jamais

Don't you ever forget
My love N'oubliez Jamais
Every generation has it's own way to go
N'oubliez Jamais in its own
N'oubliez Jamais
N'oubliez Jamais page
Don't you ever, ever forget it
N'oubliez Jamais
