When a Man Loves a Woman

---------------------------

When Some Sweat Hog mama with a face like a gent
Said my get up and go musta got up and went
Well I got good news, she's a real good liar
Cause the backstage boogie set your pants on fire

Aerosmith - Sweet Emotion

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

As I was walking home the other night
walking past the alley with the flash of the scarlet neon light
A rolls royce pulled up to me a woman said
sonny have you seen a silver poodle with a ribbon on his head
I thought to myself man shes joking
In this part of towm
A poodle could wind up at Burger King
But she looked serious and so I
Said that I thought that I might have
Cuz I was delerious in dire need
of any old bills that she might have
She opened the door and said to come in
offered me a drink and some funny looking powder from her stash
I told her no thanks my mother told me
Don't except a thing from a stranger unless its check or cash
She said who are you not to surrender
A poor kid like you aught to be thankful just being alive
Then she layed down in the back seat and pulled me into her body heat
And I thought man this is my lucky day
That was until I thought I heard her say..

After a while she looked up in a state of shock
Whispered in my ear that she was sorry about the length of my stay
I told her I wasn't going anywhere
Not at least until you compensate for this unjust depravity
What happened here its heard to remember
The next thing I knew
I lay face down in the street all alone
and I hear the pitter pat of little feet
that make their way right over me
The door closed, I looked, they sped away
She was sitting in the backseat with a little gray -

funky poodle..............


I've got so much honey, the bees envy me
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees
Well, I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?

My Girl

...............................

Beware of pretty faces that you find.
A pretty face can hide an evil mind.
Oh, be careful what you say. You'll give yourself away.
Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow.

Secret Agent Man!

.................................

I said to Hank Williams: how lonely does it get?
Hank Williams hasn't answered yet
But I hear him coughing all night long
A hundred floors above me...

Tower of Song----Leonard Cohen

............................................

Jimmy gave us rainbows
And Janis took a piece of our hearts
And Otis brought us all to the dock of a bay
Sing a song to light my fire
Remember Jim that way

Rock 'n Roll Heaven! (you know they got a hell of a band!)

......................................................

And if I catch it coming back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you
And that ain't what you wanna hear
But that's what I'll do....

Seven Nation Army - White Stripes

------------------------------------

(Hoping this one is a stumper)

Where you don't know what you're after
Or if something's after you
And you don't know why you don't know

A World Without Lyrics--Kiss

...............................................

I went to see him just today
Oh but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I'd seen him smile in years

He Stopped Loving Her Today- George Jones

Life is lowly anonymity, in death a noble prose, a Marat David.
Tell me who wouldn't give their lives for such a soap box to leave behind.
Life is lowly, lowly anonymity. I know its all been done before, I want to do it again. I want do it again

Kill the Switch;--Circle Takes the Square (whew! I was afraid that I had killed the thread!)

.............................................

First I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
without you by my side

 

[debb]

i will survive....



Baby here I am
I'm the man on the scene
I can give you what you want
But you gotta' come home with me

Hard to Handle

..................................


Listen children to a story that was written long ago
'Bout a kingdom on a mountain, and the valley folk below
On the mountain was a treasure buried deep beneath a stone
And the valley people swore they'd have it for their very own.

coven... billy Jack...can't remember the name ..lol


Down and out
It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about.
With, without.
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about?
Out of the way, it's a busy day
I've got things on my mind.
For the want of the price of tea and a slice
The old man died.

nite all..

Us and Them--Pink Floyd

............................................

Stuck inside these four walls, sent inside forever,
Never seeing no one nice again like you,
Mama you, mama you.
If I ever get out of here,
Thought of giving it all away

The previous song was "One Tin Soldier". I'd forgotten that it was the theme song for the movie "Billy Jack"

Band on the Run

---------------------------------

I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in twelve-thirty flight
Her moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say: "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

Africa..
--------------------------------------------

If we still have time, we might still get by
Every time I think about it, I wanna cry
With bombs and the devil, and the kids keep comin'
No way to breathe easy, no time to be young

 

[Brutus Buckeye]

Crazy on You - Heart

--------------------------

Run your mouth when I'm not around
It's easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize

Can you hear the violins playing your song?
Those same friends tell me your every word

Pantera............




Well my father was a gambler down in Georgia,
He wound up on the wrong end of a gun.
And I was born in the back seat of a Greyhound bus
Rollin' down highway 41.

Ramblin' man - Allman Brothers....... good stuff


Seems to me,
you dont want to talk about it.
Seems to me,
you just turn your pretty head and walk away.
