    “Love Don’t Live Here Anymore” (remake) by Rose Royce, 1978.

     


    LYRICS:

    You abandoned me
    Love don't live here anymore
    Just a vacancy
    Love don't live here anymore
    When you lived inside of me
    There was nothing I could conceive
    That you wouldn't do for me
    Trouble seemed so far away
    You changed that right away, baby
    You abandoned me
    Love don't live here anymore
    Just a vacancy
    Love don't live here anymore
    Love don't live here anymore
    Just emptiness and memories
    Of what we had before
    You went away
    Found another place to stay, another home
    You abandoned me
    Love don't live here anymore
    Just a vacancy
    Love don't live here anymore
    Through the windows of my eyes
    Everyone can see the loneliness inside me
    Why'd you have to go away
    Don't you know I miss you so, and need your love
    You abandoned me
    Love don't live here anymore
    Just a vacancy
    Love don't live here anymore 
    You abandoned me
    Love don't live here anymore
    Just a vacancy, yeah
    Love don't live here anymore, no, no, no
    You abandoned me
    Love don't live here, live here no more

    “Movin’ Out” by Billy Joel, 1977.

     





    LYRICS 

    Anthony works in the grocery store
    Savin' his pennies for someday
    Mama Leone left a note on the door
    She said, "Sonny, move out to the country"
    Workin' too hard can give you
    A heart attack (ack, ack, ack, ack, ack)
    You oughta know by now (oughta know)
    Who needs a house out in Hackensack
    Is that what you get for your money?
    … It seems such a waste of time
    If that's what it's all about
    Mama if that's movin' up
    Then I'm movin' out
    I'm movin' out
    … Sergeant O'Leary is walkin' the beat
    At night he becomes a bartender
    He works at Mister Cacciatore's down
    On Sullivan Street
    Across from the medical center
    He's tradin' in his Chevy for a Cadillac (ack, ack, ack, ack, ack)
    You oughta know by now
    And if he can't drive
    With a broken back
    At least he can polish the fenders
    … It seems such a waste of time
    If that's what it's all about
    Mama if that's movin' up
    Then I'm movin' out
    I'm movin' out
    … You should never argue with a crazy mind (mi-, mi-, mi-, mi-, mi-)
    You oughta know by now
    You can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime
    Is that all you get for your money
    If that's what you have in mind
    If that's what you're all about
    Good luck movin' up
    'Cause I'm moving out
    I'm moving out (mmm)
    Ou, ou, uh huh (mmm)
    … I'm moving out
