You and Me - Alice Cooper (cover-live by Bill Sharkey)

You and Me (Alice Cooper, 1977). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2023-05-28. "Keeping the Oldies & Classics Alive"

"You and Me ," written by Alice Cooper and Dick Wagner, was Alice Cooper's second top 10 hit climbing to the no. 9 position on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1977(Whitburn, 2013). Cooper has been considered the Grandfather of Goth; however, this song, as well as "I Never Cry" and "Only Women Bleed," were a shift from Cooper's darker rocking songs. He has described this genre as "heavy metal housewife rock" (songfacts, 2023). Others would consider the song an easy listening ballad (alicecooper, 2023).

Lyrics:

When I get home from work,
I want to wrap myself around you.
I want to take you and squeeze you
till the passion starts to rise.

I want to take you to heaven.
That would make my day complete.

But you and me ain't no movie stars.
What we are is what we are.
We share a bed,
some lovin',
and TV, yeah.
And that's enough for a workin' man.
What I am is what I am.
And I tell you, babe,
well that's enough for me.

Sometimes when you're asleep
and I'm just starin' at the ceiling,
I want to reach out and touch you,
but you just go on dreamin'.

If I could take you to heaven,
that would make my day complete.

But you and me ain't no movie stars.
What we are is what we are.
We share a bed,
some lovin',
and TV, yeah.
That's enough for a workin' man.
What I am is what I am.
And I tell you, sweetheart
that's just enough for me.

You and me ain't no super stars.
What we are is what we are.
We share a bed,
some popcorn,
and TV, yeah.
And that's enough for a workin' man.
What I am is what I am.
And I tell you, babe,
you're just enough for me.

When I get home from work,
I want to wrap myself around you.
I like to hold you squeeze you
till the passion starts to rise.

I want to take you to heaven.
That would make my day complete.

You and me ain't no movie stars.
What we are is what we are.
We share a bed,
of lovin',
and TV, yeah.
And that's enough for a workin' man.
What I am well that's what I am.
I tell you, baby,
that's just enough for me.
