Your earworm is ...

[dave]

sorry, Tom...I get nothing from that one.....must be outside my typical genre field.

00000000....that's good, but I got one ear doing Godsmack and the other Joe Walsh....unfortunately neither has pushed out the worm I got from the radio this morning:

Oh I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah yeah yeah

I try to stay far from the title when I quote, but I'm not sure there are any other words to that song ...lol...

[Porch Dweller]

When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand
This is not how I am...

[markem]

I like pina coladas
getting lost in the rain

[icehog3]

Well you know the day destroys the night,
Night divides the day,
Tried to run,
Tried to hide.......

[shilala]

If your world has only done you wrong,
and all you find yourself is all alone,
and if there's no one there to see you through,
I'll be there for you...

[markem]

I love Rock and Roll
Put another dime in the jukebox baby

[Porch Dweller]

Parsley, Sage
Rosemary & Thyme

[icehog3]

Here I come again now, Baby, like a dog in heat
Tell it's me by the clamor now, Baby, I like to tear up the street

[kugie]

My friend Harvey married Tracey McCall,
By Christ she was a scary old doll.
A voice out of hell and a temper to boot,
Arms like a navvy and a face like dried fruit.

[kugie]

I must admit
I can't explain
Any of these thoughts racing
Through my brain

It's true
Baby I'm howlin' for you

[markem]

Home, home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play

(shoot me, shoot me now)

[kugie]

Just listen to the rhythm of the falling rain.....

[markem]

I'm just a living legacy
To the leader of the band.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQmkoMZyvOQ

But I in no way wanted to get rid of it for now.

[dave]

Home, home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play

(shoot me, shoot me now)

Some days, sure :) But, it's approaching Fathers' Day and that's the one of only very few songs I remember my dad ever singing....thanks

[Porch Dweller]

Well a young man
Ain't got nothing in the world these days

[icehog3]

One, two, three and to the fo'
Snoop Doggy Dogg and Dr. Dre are at the do'
Ready to make an entrance, so back on up
(Cause you know we 'bout had to rip **** up)
Gimme the microphone first, so I can bust like a bubble
Compton and Long Beach together, now you know you in trouble

[bonjing]

Up early in the morning gotta thank God,
I dunno but today seems kinda odd,
No barkin from the dog, no smog
and momma cooked the breakfast with no hog

[dave]

Early in the morning, risin' to the street
Light me up that cigarette and I strap shoes on my feet

[icehog3]

Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em
Roll 'em in a circle of ****** and watch me break 'em
with the seven, seven-eleven, seven-eleven
Seven even back do' Lil' Joe
I picked up the cash flow

[bonjing]

Woke up quick, at about noon
Just thought that I had to be in Compton soon
I gotta get drunk before the day begins,
before my mother starts ******* bout my friends

[dave]

It ain't the first time baby
Baby it wont be the last
I'd better get the boys round
And do some drinkin fast

[icehog3]

It ain't the first time baby
Baby it wont be the last
I'd better get the boys round
And do some drinkin fast

Heard that song yesterday for the first time in years, dat's a good one. :tu

Did you see any action?
Did you make any friends?
Would you like some affection
Before I leave again?

[bonjing]

Since I don't know the rest of the words. . .

Heyyyy Macarena!

[kugie]

She was a fast machine
She kept her motor clean

[Porch Dweller]

Heard that song yesterday for the first time in years, dat's a good one. :tu

Did you see any action?
Did you make any friends?
Would you like some affection
Before I leave again?

I just heard that on the radio in the car! :D


Why try...I know why
This feeling inside me says it's time I was gone.

[dman4505]

She said 'Boy i'm tired of waiting up while your out with your friends'
He said 'Mom im tired and im living my life the best way that I can'

Cause i'm trying to be somebody
I'm not trying to be somebody else
This life is mine i'm living
Don't you know me? I wont ever let you down

[icehog3]

If you're on the highway and Road Runner goes beep beep.
Just step aside or might end up in a heap.
Road Runner, Road Runner runs on the road all day.
Even the coyote can't make him change his ways.

Road Runner, the coyote's after you.
Road Runner, if he catches you you're through.
Road Runner, the coyote's after you.
Road Runner, if he catches you you're through.

That coyote is really a crazy clown,
When will he learn he can never mow him down?
Poor little Road Runner never bothers anyone,
Just runnin' down the road's his idea of having fun.

[bonjing]

baby hair with a woman's eyes
i can feel you watching in the night
all alone with me and we're waiting for the sunlight
when i feel cold you warm me
when i feel i can't go on you come and hold me
it's you...... and me forever

[icehog3]

Everybody's high on consolation
Everybody's trying to tell me
What is right for me, yeah
I need a drink and a quick decision
Now it's up to me, ooooh what will be

[ArgusP2]

When you find yourself in danger,
When you're threatened by a stranger,
When it looks like you will take a lickin',
(Puk, puk, puk)
There is someone waiting,
Who will hurry up and rescue you,
Just call for...

I was an idiot and clicked on this while looking for a different song. Thought it was familiar but could not place it. You can guess the result.

do do do
Down dooby doo down down
Comma, comma, down dooby doo down down
Comma, comma, down dooby doo down down
Breaking up is hard to do

[kugie]

I'm travelin' down the road,
I'm flirtin' with disaster.
I've got the pedal to the floor,
My life is running faster.
I'm out of money, I'm out of hope,
It looks like self destruction.
Well how much more can we take,
With all of this corruption.

[Porch Dweller]

Driving that train
High on cocaine

[icehog3]

When criminals in this world appear
And break the laws that they should fear
And frighten all who see or hear
The cry goes up both far and near for......

[Porch Dweller]

Da doo doo doo
Da daa daa daa
Is all I want to say to you

[icehog3]

I've got my clipboard, text books
Lead me to the station
Yeah, I'm off to the civil war
I've got my kit bag, my heavy boots
I'm runnin' in the rain
Gonna run till my feet are raw

[dave]

:banger

No easy way to be free!!! :noon

[dave]

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

[icehog3]

Well the kids don't eat
And the dog can't sleep
There's no escape from the music
In the whole damn street

'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right

[kugie]

My chick bad
My chick hood
My chick do stuff dat yo' chick wish she could

[kugie]

Well we got no choice
All the girls and boys
Makin all that noise
'Cause they found new toys
Well we can't salute ya
Can't find a flag
If that don't suit ya
That's a drag

[Porch Dweller]

Lord, I just can't go out the door
'Cause there's a man down there
Might be your man, I don't know

[icehog3]

Well, I don't know why I came here tonight
I got the feeling that something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering how I'll get down those stairs

Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right,
Here I am........

[kugie]

If I had a million dollars...
If I had a million dollars

[dave]

He's got this dream about buying some land
He's gonna give up the booze and the one-night stands
And then he'll settle down
In some quiet little town
And forget about everything

[shark]

Give me a job, give me security
Give me a chance to survive
I'm just a poor soul in the unemployment line'
My God I'm barely alive!

[Porch Dweller]

Welcome back, my friends
To the show that never ends
We're so glad you could attend
Come inside, come inside

[icehog3]

So this ain't the end, I saw you again
Today, I had to turn my heart away
You smiled like the Sun, kisses for everyone
And tales, it never fails!
You're lying so low in the weeds
Bet you're gonna ambush me
You'd have me down, down, down on my knees

[Porch Dweller]

Big man, pig man
Ha ha, charade you are

[Ye Olde Phart]

I might be movin' to Montana soon
Just to raise me up a crop of Dental Floss Raisin' it up
Waxen it down
In a little white box
I can sell uptown

[icehog3]

Well there might be trouble cause everybodys got a gun,
Across that county line,
With fifty more cases white lightning apple moonshine.

Fight for love, fight for life,
Fight for money with the edge of a knife,
Rule your fear and rule the night,
Rule the road in a lawless fight.

[Porch Dweller]

I get up at seven, yeah
And I go to work at nine
I got no time for livin', yeah
I'm working all the time

[icehog3]

Who's gonna pick you up
When you fall
Who's gonna hang it up
When you call
Who's gonna pay attention
To your dreams
Who's gonna plug their ears
When you scream

You can't go on
Thinking nothing's wrong

[kugie]

You get up every morning
From your 'larm clock's warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above
And people pushin', people shovin'
And the girls who try to look pretty

[Ye Olde Phart]

Early in the morning and I can't do right
Had a little fight with my baby last night and it's early in the morning
Don'chu know it's early in the morning
Early in the morning
I ain't got nothing, no nothing but the blues

I went to your girlfriend's house
But she was out
I knocked on your daddy's door
But he began to shout and he said,
It's early in the morning
Don'chu know it's early in the morning
Early in the morning
I ain't got nothing, no nothing but the blues

I went to Dooby Chase to get somethin' to eat
Waitress looked at me said, "Harry, you sure look beat"
And I said, It's early in the morning
Don'chu know it's early in the morning
Early in the morning
Ain't got nothing, but the Blues

[icehog3]

Up with the sun, gone with the wind
She always said I was lazy
Leavin' my home, leavin' my friends
Runnin' when things get too crazy
Out to the road, out 'neath the stars
Feelin' the breeze, passin' the cars

Women have come, women have gone
Everyone tryin' to cage me
Some were so sweet, I barely got free
Others, they only enraged me

Sometimes at night, I see their faces
I feel the traces they've left on my soul
Those are the memories that make me a wealthy soul

[Porch Dweller]

Another suburban family morning
Grandmother screaming at the wall

[shark]

Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
But mama, that's where the fun is

[icehog3]

The radio is blastin', someone's knockin' at the door
I'm lookin' at my girlfriend - she's passed out on the floor
I seen so many things I ain't never seen before
Don't know what it is - I don't wanna see no more

[shark]

I'd get it one piece at a time and it wouldn't cost me a dime
You'll know it's me when I come through your town
I'm gonna ride around in style, I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is around

[Porch Dweller]

With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound
He pulls the spitting high tension wires down

Helpless people on a subway train
Scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them

He picks up a bus and he throws it back down
As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town

[TXSmokey]

I was cutting a rug down at a place called the jug with a girl named linda lu
when in walked a man with a gun in his hand, he was lookin for you know who
he said hey there fella with the hair colored yellow what you tryin to prove
cause that's my woman there and i'm a man who cares and this might be all for you

[RWhisenand]

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell
Blue skies from pain

Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

Did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts
Hot ashes for trees
Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change
Did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year

Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here

[Porch Dweller]

She came in through the bathroom window
Protected by her silver spoon

[jonumberone]

I said, "I'll ride with you if you can get me to the border.
The Sheriff is after me for what I did to his daughter.
I did it like this, I did it like that.
I did it with the Wiffle ball bat.

[Porch Dweller]

Take me across the water
'Cause I need some place to hide
I done the rancher's daughter, lord
And I sure did hurt his pride, heh heh

[ArgusP2]

Ooga Chaka Ooga Chaka

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of you all over myself
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well

You've got me turning up and turning down
And turning in and turning 'round

And if I say to you tomorrow
Take my hand child, come with me

[markem]

Will you still need me,
Will you still feed me,
When I'm 64?

The only way to get that one out of my head over the past 3 days has been to switch to this one:

Bye, bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levy
But the levy was dry
Good 'ol boys drinking whiskey and rye
Singing this will be the day that I die.

[Porch Dweller]

Though I try...
And I try
And I try
And I try
I can't get no...
Hey hey hey

[RWhisenand]

So just how far down do you wanna go?
Can we talk it out over a cup of Joe
And you'll look deep into my eyes like I was a supermodel
A huh

[Porch Dweller]

So just how far down do you wanna go?
Can we talk it out over a cup of Joe

Great tune!

Well I did get into town about an hour ago
Took a look around to see which way the wind blow

[icehog3]

The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre

[RWhisenand]

Great tune!

Well I did get into town about an hour ago
Took a look around to see which way the wind blow

So everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people
meet me at the mission at midnight we'll settle up there


Yea this is a great tune, been in my head for a week or two, and I'm not tired of it yet!

[Porch Dweller]

I'm sailing away
Set an open course, for the virgin sea

[shark]

Doo da wop, doo bee doo da wop, do wah doo lang.
Blue days, black nights, doo wah doo lang.
I look into the sky, The love you need ain't gonna see you through,
And I wonder why the little things you planned ain't comin' true.
Oh, oh, telephone line, Give me some time, I'm living in twilight.
Oh, oh, telephone line, Give me some time, I'm living in twilight.

If you're havin' trouble with the high school head
He's givin' you the blues
You wanna graduate but not in his bed
Here's what you gotta do
Pick up the phone, I'm always home
Call me any time
Just ring 36 24 36 hey
I lead a life of crime

[icehog3]

I suppose I could collect my books and go back to school
Or steal my Daddy's cue and make a livin' out of playing pool
Or find myself a rock and roll band, that needs a helping hand....

[dave]

The women I've known I wouldn't let tie my shoe
They wouldn't give you the time of day
But the slit eyed lady knocked me off my feet
God I was glad I found her

[dman4505]

The sun is beating down
Are we ever gonna change?
Can we stop the blood from running?

Our time is running out
Hope we find a better way
Before we find we're left with nothing

For every life that's taken
So much love is wasted

[icehog3]

Day is night in New York City
Smoke, like water, runs inside
Steel idle trees to pity
Every living thing that's died

[RWhisenand]

Went on a pretty long mountain bike ride this morning, and had Phish's song Farmhouse in my ears.

Welcome this is a farmhouse
We have cluster flys alas and this time of year it's bad
We are so very sorry there is little we can do, but swat them

Woke this morning from the stinging lash
Every man rise from the ash
Each betrayal begins with trust
Every man returns to dust

I never ever saw the northern lights
I never ever heard of cluster flys
I never ever saw the stars so bright
In the farmhouse things will be alright



I guess I'm in a hippy kind of mode today.

[Porch Dweller]

I went back to my mother
I said I'm crazy ma, help me
She said "I know how it feels, son
'Cause it runs in the family."

[ColdCuts]

When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand
This is not how I am...

[And then later]

There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look, but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone...

What follows, of course, after that last omitted all-important verse, is the greatest guitar solo ever. Of all time. Forever. http://youtu.be/G4i8tzFbTAk

Ever since Lauren Bacall died I got this crap bouncing around my head and can't get rid of it:

"We had it all
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our old late, late show
Sailing away to ......"

Every time her death is mentioned on the radio or TV they say the name of that movie....driving me fn nuts. To make matters worse, when I complained about it to my wife, we ended up watching the video....did you know that eyeworms are almost as bad as earworms? Try this out and tell me it doesn't make you wretch:

Darlin' you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here 'til the end of time
So you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?

It's always tease tease tease
You're happy when I'm on my knees
One day is fine and next is black
So if you want me off your back
Well come on an' let me know
Should I Stay or should I go?

Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
An' if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know

Every time I smoke a Partagas I hear U2....

"I knew a girl, a girl called Party....Party Girl"

[Porch Dweller]

Lonely feeling, deep inside
Find a corner, where I can hide
Silent footsteps, crowding me
Sudden darkness, but I can see

[icehog3]

In the silence of her mind
Quiet movements where I can find
Grabbing for me with her eyes
Now I'm falling from her skies

[dave]

Funny the way my warped mind works. I instantly knew Porch's song. And it even rattled around for a while...along with These Eyes. But here's where it gets crazy....I was hearing your lyrics, Ice, in a Simon and Garfunkel harmony. Wow. :)

At the moment, I've got this rattling around....
When I'm with you, it doesn't matter where we are,
Or what we're doing. I'm with you, that's all that matters.
Time passes much too quickly when we're together laughing.
I wish I could sing it to you, oh no,
I wish I could sing it to you.
Mostly I'm silent.

[AdamJoshua]

When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
And dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away
She slipped away……

It's more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play…..

[shark]

Try getting this outta your head after watching it:

This started the whole album playing in my head. I may have to go look in the basement and see if I still have the vinyl.
I wouldn't mind if all my earworms were songs like that.

A song for the season:

Nobody on the road
nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
the summer's out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets,
the sun goes down alone
I'm drivin' by your house
Though I know you're not home

[shilala]

I've got "Me and Bobby McGee" stuck in my brain. The Janis one.
And I want it out.

[AdamJoshua]

He was born on a summer day, 1951
And with the slap of a hand
He had landed as an only son
His mother and father said "what a lovely boy"
We'll teach him what we learned
Ah yes, just what we learned
We'll dress him up warmly and
We'll send him to school
It'll teach him how to fight
To be nobody's fool




ah Andrew Gold!

[tsolomon]

Hit the wash cycle with this one today, got to listen to the versions by:

Eric Clapton and Duane Allman
Sam Cooke
Littel Walter
T-Bone Walker

I've got the blues
Gonna pack my things and go
Yes, I've got the blues
Gonna pack my things and go
Well, I guess you don't love me
You're lovin' Mr. So-And-So

[dave]

Thanks, Tom. Took the same trip at your 'suggestion'. Almost wished I'd listened to T-Bone Walker 4 times instead. Much as I like the other four guys, I think his is by far the best version....to me anyway.

[tsolomon]

Thanks, Tom. Took the same trip at your 'suggestion'. Almost wished I'd listened to T-Bone Walker 4 times instead. Much as I like the other four guys, I think his is by far the best version....to me anyway.I'm a big T-Bone fan, but this acoustic version of Goin' Down The Road Fellin' Bad by the Allman Brothers is just making my day. Gettin lots of strange looks as I'm wandering around the building singing this to myself. Wish I could find it an mp3 of it for the iPod. :D

[Ye Olde Phart]

There she was just walkin' down the street
Singin', "Do wah diddy, diddy, dum diddy do"
Snappin' her fingers and shufflin' her feet
Singin', "Do wah diddy diddy, dum diddy do"

She looked good, she looked fine
And I nearly lost my mind...........

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_vMx6aQBEk

Enjoyed that. However, as much as I 'appreciate' the Allman Brothers, I guiltily admit that I rarely get through 2 songs before I find that I'm looking for something from Marshall Tucker or the Outlaws to listen to instead.


As a result, I've now got this on my brain:

Gonna take a freight train down at the station, lawd...don't care where it go...gonna climb a mountain - highest mountain....jump off - nobody gonna know

[tsolomon]

I see your Do wah diddy and .....

I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink

I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissin' everything in sight
But when I kissed a cop down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine
He broke my little bottle of Love Potion Number Nine

[AdamJoshua]

Lunatic Fringe - I know you're out there

Leading me on, on, on
On to the woman, she dance for the sun
God of my day, day, day
Lord of my night, night, night
Seek for the way, way, way
Taking me home

Mean Mr. Mustard / Polythene Pam / She Came in Through the Bathroom Window.

Mean Mr. Mustard sleeps in the park,
shaves in the dark,
tryin' to save paper.

Sleeps in a hole in the road.
Savin' up to buy him some clothes.
Keeps a ten bob note up his nose.
Such a mean old man!

[Porch Dweller]

Oh mama, I'm in fear for my life
From the long arm of the law

[Ye Olde Phart]

Everybody's gone away,
Said they're movin' to L.A.
There's not a soul I know around,
Everybody's leavin' town

Some caught a freight, some caught a plane
Find the sunshine leave the rain
They said this town will waste your time
Guess they're right -- it's wasted mine
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good Time Charlie's got the blues

[markem]

I don't want a pickle,
Just want to ride my motorcycle

(in honor of the musician behind a Thanksgiving holiday song that is tradition among many of my friends. Oh, and Icehog3)

[icehog3]

In honor of my ex's......

You see me on the street
You always act surprised
You say, “How are you?” “Good luck”
But you don’t mean it

When you know as well as me
You’d rather see me paralyzed
Why don’t you just come out once
And scream it

[AdamJoshua]

Do you remember the
21st night of September?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away

and for you youngsters ... to really hammer the point home I give you Earth, Wind & Fire

[Porch Dweller]

Well the first days are the hardest days, don't you worry any more,
Cause when life looks like easy street, there is danger at your door.

[massphatness]

I would give you the stars in the sky
But they're too far away.
If you were a hooker, you know
I'd be happy to pay.
If suddenly you were a guy,
I'd be suddenly gay

I've been a moonshiner
For seventeen long years
I spent all my money
On whiskey and beer

I'll go to some hollow
And set up my still
And I'll sell you a gallon
For a ten dollar bill...

All my life I've been searching for something
Something never comes never leads to nothing
Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope
All night long I dream of the day
When it comes around, when it's taken away
Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
Feel it come to life when I see your ghost

Jackie sits back
Reflects his thoughts for the moment
Scratches his head
And does his best James Dean

You're a star belly sneetch
You suck like a leech
You want everyone to act like you
Kiss ass while you b***h
So you can get rich
But your boss gets richer off you

Breathe out
So I can breathe you in
Hold you in
And now
I know you've always been
Out of your head
Out of my head I sang

Ridin' down the highway
Goin' to a show
Stop in all the byways
Playin' rock 'n' roll
Gettin' robbed
Gettin' stoned
Gettin' beat up
Broken boned
Gettin' had
Gettin' took
I tell you folks
It's harder than it looks

It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
If you think it's easy doin' one night stands
Try playin' in a rock roll band
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

I was just listening to this.
One of the greatest ROCK and ROLL bands of all TIME!


Sometimes I think this woman is kinda hot
Sometimes I think this woman is sometimes not
Puts me down
Fool me around
Why she do it to me
Out for satisfaction
Any piece of action
That ain't the way it should be
She needs lovin'
Knows I'm the man
She' gotta see
Pours my beer
Licks my ear
Brings out the devil in me
Hell ain't a bad place to be

[dave]

She was black as the night
Louie was whiter than white
Danger, danger when you taste brown sugar
Louie fell in love overnight

[dave]

I think I want Louie back...due to unforseen circumstances, he's been replaced by

Ducks say quack
and fish go blub
and the seal goes ow ow ow ow ow

But theres one sound
That no one knows

[icehog3]

I know that it's evil
I know that it got to be
No I ain't doin' much
Doin' nothing means a lot to me
Living on a shoe-string
A fifty cent millionaire
Open to charity
Rock'n'roll wellfare

Sittin' in a Cadillac
Listenin' to the radio
Suzy baby get on in
Tells me where she wanna go
I'm livin' in a nightmare
She's looking like a wet dream
I've got myself a Cadillac
But I can't afford the gasoline

I got holes in my shoes
And I'm way over due
Down payment blues

[shilala]

Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak

But if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

They got a vintage Victrola 1951
Full of my favorite records that I grew up on
They got ole Hank and Lefty and there's B24
Set 'em up Joe, and play ‘Walking The Floor’.

Set 'em up Joe, and play ‘Walking The Floor’
I'm gonna spend the night like every night before
Playin' ET and I'll play him some more
I've gotta have a shot of them old troubadours.

Set 'em up Joe, and play ‘Walking The Floor’.
Set 'em up Joe, and play ‘Walking The Floor’.

All my neon neighbors they like what I play
Cause they've heard it every night since you've walked away
Every day they replace old B24
'Cause every night I run a needle through ‘Walking The Floor’

Every night I run a needle through ‘Walking The Floor’.
I'm gonna spend the night like every night before
Playin' ET and I'll play him some more
I've gotta have a shot of them old troubadours.

Set 'em up Joe, and play ‘Walking The Floor’
Set 'em up Joe, and play ‘Walking The Floor’
I said set 'em up Joe, and play ‘Walking The Floor'

Four young chiquitas in Omaha
Waitin' for the band to return from the show
Feelin' good, feelin' right, it's Saturday night
The hotel detective, he was outta sight
Now these fine ladies, they had a plan
They was out to meet the boys in the band
They said, "Come on dudes, let's get it on"
And we proceeded to tear that hotel down

Girls of fifteen
Sexually knowing
The ushers are sniffing
Eau-de-cologning

The seats are seductive
Celibate sitting
Pretty girls digging
Prettier women

Magically bored
On a quiet street corner
Free frustration
In our minds and our toes

Quiet storm water
M-m-my generation
Uppers and downers
Either way blood flows

Inside outside, leave me alone
Inside outside, nowhere is home
Inside outside, where have I been?
Out of my brain on the ........

Great song!

Did you ever hear the Anvil version they played on SoA? I little harder edged but pretty cool in its own right.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hojwp-CqIGw

I am glad I played that. I had a Nickelback song in my head, and I was seriously contemplating suicide..... ;)

[markem]

'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places

It's getting near dawn,
When lights close their tired eyes
I'll soon be with you my love,
To give you my dawn surprise
I'll be with you darling soon,
I'll be with you when the stars start falling

I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going

[shilala]

"I'll be over at ten", you told me time and again
But you're late, I wait around and then (bah-dah-dah)
I went to the door, I can't take any more
It's not you, you let me down again

(Hey, hey, hey!) Baby, baby, try to find
(Hey, hey, hey!) A little time and I'll make you mine
(Hey, hey, hey!) I'll be home
I'll be beside the phone waiting for you
Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo

I need to make you mine

Woman like long neck bottles
And a big head on her beer
I don’t like to talk about my women
But I hold that woman dear
Well, one night she go to drinking
Got out and shot up the town
I’ll be damned if she didn’t
Bring an airplane down
I don’t like to talk about my woman
But this one sure could chug ‘em down
I don’t like to talk about my woman
But this one sure could chug ‘em down
One night she started drinking
Down by the river
She dried up the river
And backed the ocean down
I don’t like to talk about none of my women
But this one sure could hold her long neck bottle beer down
When she walked into a bar
They set ‘em and got right out of town
‘Cuz she picked ‘em up a’plenty
And laid a lot of them down
Women like long neck bottles
And a big head on their beer
Now you got that down
You got that down
Well, one night she go to drinking
Got out and shot up the town
I’ll be damned if she didn’t
Bring an airplane down
I don’t like to talk about my woman
But this one sure could chug ‘em down
I don’t like to talk about my woman
But this one sure could chug ‘em down
I don’t like to talk about none of my women
But I’m going to do it anyway
Then I’m going to get
Right out of town

[badbriar]

Who can say where the road goes,
Where the day flows?
Only time...

And who can say if your love grows,
As your heart chose?
Only time.

[badbriar]

The sign says long-haired, freaky people need not apply!

So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why?

He said you look like a fine, outstanding young man, I think you’ll do...

So I took off my hat and said imagine that, me working for you!

[icehog3]

The percentage you're paying is too high priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams
But today you just read that the man was shot dead
By a gun that didn't make any noise
But it wasn't the bullet that laid him to rest, was

[dave]

Thanks, Tom! That's a favorite that I'll be glad to have burrowing throughout the morning.

[icehog3]

My pleasure to provide "the Spark", Dave. ;)

Well, I feel so good, everything is sounding hot,
Better take it easy, 'cause the place is on fire,
Been a hard day and I don't know what to do,
Wait a minute, baby, it could happen to you.

[JimFishIII]

Some say the end is near
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon
I certainly hope we will
I sure could use a vacation from this...

[shilala]

Undercover
And blame it on the season
It ain't no kinda reason baby
Why come and go

Had a Lover
She felt as good as trees
And you can ask her if its pleasing
You can ask the wind to blow

And I would buy for you a diamond
Or myself some gasoline
If I can't afford you darling
Then I can't afford to dream
And is it time I should be moving
Is it time I settle down
Will I sit still or will I feel the wheels a spinning round

[Porch Dweller]

Hey man, what's the plan, what was that you said?
Sun-tanned, drink in hand, lying there in bed.
I try to socialize but I can't seem to find
What I was looking for, got something on my mind.

[shilala]

Relax, don't do it.
When you wanna suck it to it?
Relax, don't do it.
When you wanna go to it?
Relax, don't do it,

Suck it to it? That must be the alternative Penguins' fans version, Scott. ;s :r

Come inside, the show's about to start
Guaranteed to blow your head apart
Rest assured you'll get your money's worth
Greatest show in Heaven, Hell or Earth
You've got to see the show, it's a dynamo
You've got to see the show, it's rock and roll, ohhhhh

Wow, it's been forever since I listened to ELP. Karn Evil 9 was my favorite song on Brain Salad Surgery!


So tired
Tired of waiting
Tired of waiting for you

I was a lonely soul
I had nobody till I met you
But you keep a-me waiting
All of the time
What can I do?

Hinch's Honda does 225; he hit the wall and now he can't drive......

Women have come, women have gone
Everyone tryin' to cage me
Some were so sweet, I barely got free
Others, they only enraged me

Sometimes at night, I see their faces
I feel the traces they've left on my soul
Those are the memories that make me a wealthy soul

[Porch Dweller]

I was just listening to that today, Tom! I love the version from Live Bullet.


Sittin' in the gutter with my head wrapped in my hands
I've been drinkin' all night, and I just can't stand the pain
It took an awful lot of trouble just to make me understand
Now it's clear to me, but will it ever be the same?

[icehog3]

I was just listening to that today, Tom! I love the version from Live Bullet.




For sure, James, coupled with "Beautiful Loser" it's just a classic. Wish I could have seen him live in his prime.

Everybody's comin', leave your body at the door

Got that one. Here goes nothing.


You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run,
You missed the starting gun

This is the end, my only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes, again

Sinking in a gentle pool of wine
Don't disturb me now I can see the answers
Till this evening is this morning life is fine
Always hoped that I'd be an apostle
Knew that I would make it if I tried
Then when we retire we can write the gospels
So they'll still talk about us when we've died

That last one, for some reason, dropped in to this one:

I'm thankful you didn't say Rod Stewart.


When I first read it, my head jumped all over:

Listening to you, I get the music
Gazing at you, I get the heat
Following you, I climb the mountain
I get excitement at your feet


After I stopped to think about it, I ended up in some dark New York alley in the '70's...it was ugly:

I see your teeth flash, Jamaican honey so sweet
Down where Lexington cross 47th Street
She's a big girl, she's standing six foot three
Turning tricks for the dudes in the big city

[icehog3]

I used to be a rolling stone you know
If a cause was right
I'd leave to find the answer on the road
I used to be a heart beating for someone
But the times have changed
The less I say the more my work gets done

Don't think it was ignited from something posted above, but at any rate, this is burning a hole in my head:

He said "You must be joking son

You know they won't be home tonight.
The snow falls hard and don't you know?
The winds of Thor are blowing cold.
They're wearing steel that's bright and true
They carry news that must get through.

They choose the path where no-one goes.

Red copper hair - dig the wig is unreal
Sure Enuff - Powerful Stuff
Ole man Atlas holding up the world
He dropped everything for - that girl
Sure Enuff I think I’m in love - And it’s powerful stuff

A hip shakin’ whip snakin’ cooked my goose
I tell you that babe she’s a fine papoose.
I love her mind, but here’s the deal,
She’s got the kind of groove like the Batmobile.

[dave]

They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about
And grow up just like them - won't you let it work it out
- and you're full of doubt

[heyferg]

With her killer graces and her secret places that no boy can fill
With her hands on her hips, oh, and that smile on her lips because she knows that it kills me
With her soft French cream, standing in that doorway like a dream, I wish she'd just leave me alone
Because French cream won't soften them boots and French kisses will not break that heart of stone
With her long hair falling and her eyes that shine like a midnight sun...

[icehog3]

You're gonna go far, fly high,
You're never gonna die,
You're gonna make it if you try;
They're gonna love you.
Well I've always had a deep respect,
And I mean that most sincerely.

What does he care

There's a boat on the reef with a broken back
And I can see it very well
There's a joke and I know it very well
It's one of those that I told you long ago
Take my word I'm a madman don't you know

There are stars
In the Southern sky
Southward as you go
There is moonlight
And moss in the trees
Down the Seven Bridges Road

The wheels on the bus go round and round
Round and round
Round and round
The wheels on the bus go round and round
All 'round the town

The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish
Swish, swish, swish
Swish, swish, swish
The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish
All 'round the town

The driver on the bus goes 'move on back'
Move on back
Move on back
The driver on the bus goes 'move on back'
All 'round the town

The people on the bus go up and down
Up and down
Up and down
The people on the bus go up and down
All 'round the town

The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep
Beep, beep, beep
Beep, beep, beep
The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep
All 'round the town

Away from Mississippi’s vale

With my ole hat there for a sail

I crossed upon a cotton bale

To the Rose of Alabamy.

Oh brown Rosey,

Rose of Alabamy,

The sweet tobacco posey

Is the Rose of Alabamy.




The river rolled, the crickets sang,

The lightnin’ bug he flashed his wing,

And like a rope my arms I fling

‘Round Rose of Alabamy.

Oh, brown Rosey,

Rose of Alabamy,

The sweet tobacco posey

Is the Rose of Alabamy.

Oh man, that triggered one for me, Tom. Nitty Gritty Dirt Band time

Wish that I was on ol' Rocky Top
Down in the Tennessee hills
Ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky Top
Ain't no telephone bills
Once I had a girl on Rocky Top
Half bear, other half cat
Wild as a mink, but sweet as soda pop
I still dream about that

Rocky Top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me
Good ol' Rocky Top
Rocky Top, Tennessee
Rocky Top, Tennessee

Once two strangers climbed ol' Rocky Top
Lookin' for a moonshine still
Strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top
Reckon they never will
Corn won't grow at all on Rocky Top
Dirt's too rocky by far
That's why all the folks on Rocky Top
Get their corn from a jar

Rocky Top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me
Good ol' Rocky Top
Rocky Top, Tennessee
Rocky Top, Tennessee

I've had years of cramped-up city life
Trapped like a duck in a pen
All I know is it's a pity life
Can't be simple again

Rocky Top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me
Good ol' Rocky Top
Rocky Top, Tennessee
Rocky Top, Tennessee
Rocky Top, Tennessee

In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey
Butane in my veins so I'm out to cut the junkie
With the plastic eyeballs, spray paint the vegetables
Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose
Kill the headlights and put it in neutral
Stock car flamin' with a loser and the cruise control
Baby's in Reno with the vitamin D

“Hello darkness my old friend… I’ve come to piss at 3 AM…”

:noon

Let's pee in the corner....let's pee in the spotlight!

[markem]

“Hello darkness my old friend… I’ve come to piss at 3 AM…”

And my bladder is slowly dripping
Left a stain upon the satin sheets
And a vision of even worse went through my brain
Echo the sound of arthritis

The old guys are rollin'! :lr

There seems to be a higher level of incontinence than I had hoped for.

Lead me to the station
Yeah, I'm off to the civil war

We're white punks on dope

Do you really think I care
What you eat or what you wear
Won't you join together with the band

Good morning, America, how are you
Don't you know me, I'm your native son

[markem]

Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace
Molly is the singer in a band
Desmond says to Molly, girl, I like your face
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand

Ob la di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
La-la, how the life goes on
Ob-la di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
La-la, how the life goes on

Well it's 40 below and I don't give a fv<k
Gotta a heater in my truck and it's off to the rodeo

[shark]

You are the dancing queen
Young and sweet
Only seventeen
Dancing queen
Feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah
You can dance
You can jive
Having the time of your life
Ooh, see that girl
Watch that scene
Dig in the dancing queen

[Porch Dweller]

The woman was a dream I had
Though rather hard to keep
For when my eyes were watching hers, they closed, and I was still asleep

For when my hand was holding hers
She whispered words and I awoke

And faintly bouncing round the room
The echo of whomever spoke
And I awoke, and faintly bouncing round the room
The echo of whomever spoke

Repeats of American Top 40 is on the radio on Saturday mornings here. Who knew that this was a top 40 hit at one time. Stupid earworm!

Why are there so many songs about rainbows
And what's on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hide

As the son of a son of a sailor
I went out on the sea for adventure
Expanding the view of the captain and crew
Like a man just released from indenture

I can do wheelin', I can do dealin'
But I don't do no damn squealin'
I can dig rappin', I'm ready! I can dig scrapping
But I can't dig that backstabbin'

The brother get ready, that's a fact
Get ready you mother for ......

You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
With four hungry children and a crop in the field
I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times
But this time your hurting won't heal
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille

[icehog3]

Everybody here is out of sight
They don't bark, and they don't bite
They keep things loose, they keep things light
Everybody was.........

Sunny Day
Sweepin' the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet
Can you tell me how to get?
How to get to ...

[Havanaaddict]

25 years and my life is still
Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination

I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go

[Brian D.]

Believe it or not I'm walkin' on air
Never thought I could feel so free-ee-ee
Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.

[Steve]

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace, of doubt in my mind
I'm in love, I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried

[CigarNut]

Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry be happy
In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry you make it double
Don't worry be happy
Don't worry be happy now

[icehog3]

Believe it or not I'm walkin' on air
Never thought I could feel so free-ee-ee
Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.

Now Papa might grin.
Drink a little taste of gin.
Bet his last ten
On a little game of skins.
Hit me!

I plugged sixteen shells from a thirty-ought-six
And the black crow snuck through a hole in the sky
So I spent all my buttons on an old pack mule
Oh, and I made me a ladder from a pawn shop marimba
I leaned it up against a dandelion tree
Leaned it up against a dandelion tree
Leaned it up against a dandelion tree

[Steve]

It's just an old double barrel twelve
The stock is cracked and it kick's like hell
It wouldn't mean what mean's to me, to no one
I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder
A guns like a woman son, it's all how you hold her
He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson
My Granddaddy's gun

[icehog3]

....I think you move me
But I wanna know for sure
So come on and hold me tight
You move me.....

I am the very model of a modern Major-General
I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral
I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical
From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical;
I'm very well acquainted too with matters mathematical
I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical

About binomial theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news---
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypote-pote-nuse

I'm very good at integral and differential calculus
I know the scientific names of beings animalculous;
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
