I Love Lyrics

Is she really going out with him? - Joe Jackson

Hello?

Is there anybody in there?

Just nod if you can hear me

Is there anyone at home

Pink Floyd - "Comfortably Numb"

And when the morning of the warning's passed,

The gassed and flaccid kids are flung across the stars

The psychodramas and the traumas gone

The songs are left unsung and hung upon the scars

And then ______ _______ ______.

Momof2inME

Along Comes Mary - The Association

Stand up in a clear blue morning, until you see

what can be alone in a cold day dawning,

are you still free? Can you be?

If You See a Chance, Take It -- Steve Winwood

Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch.
Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singing,

Momof2inME

Lookin' Out My Back Door - CCR

revved up like a deuce,

another runner in the night

 

Mini1

Blinded by the Light - Manfred Mann

Going back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move
Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand
Saying, "If you see this girl can you tell her where I am?

Well, it's not 50's thru' 80's but it WAS a song on The Voice last night.  I had to look up the artist...

The Script - "The Man Who Can't Be Moved"

Here's mine, because I REALLY do love lyrics!!!

As they pulled you out of the oxygen tent
You asked for the latest party
With your silicone hump and your ten inch stump
Dressed like a priest you was
Tod Browning's freak you was

Mini1

I guess I didn't realize that it was 50's throgh 80's. My bad.

Diamond Dogs - David Bowie

I haven't been here for a while, either. Work keeping me super-busy. Good to see y'all!

It's the sweetest thing I know of, just spending time with you.
It's the little things that make a house a home.
Like a fire softly burning and supper on the stove.
And the light in your eyes that makes me warm.

Back Home Again - John Denver

Patti packed her bags, left a note for her momma

She was just seventeen

Alive4Five

Rod Stewart - Young Turks...lol, I had to really think about this one for a minute

Well, my bags are packed, and I'm ready to go

The taxi's waiting, and he's blowin' his horn

Already I'm so lonesome, I could cry....

Mini1

Leaving on a Jet Plane. Peter, Paul and Mary.

Want some whiskey in your water
Sugar in your tea
What's all these crazy questions they askin' me

Momof2inME

Mama Told Me Not To Come - Three Dog Night

Your eyes got me dreaming

Your eyes got me blind

Your eyes got me hoping

That I'll be holding you close tonight

Ebony Eyes - Bob Welch

Called the doctor, woke him up, and said
"Doctor, ain't there nothing I can take"
I say, "Doctor, to relieve this belly ache?"

Coconut - Harry Nilsson  (and it makes me want to YT some of his great songs right now!)

This low down bitchin' got my poor feet a itchin',
Don't you know you know the duece is still wild.

elimar86861

It was "Tumbling Dice" by The Stones.

I didn't think that one would stump anyone.  Maybe people aren't looking on this thread as muh as they used to???  Here's one more...

There'll be women and their fortunes who want to mother little orphans

Are you gonna cry while I'm squeezin' them dry?

Takin' all I can get, no regrets, when I

Openly lie, and live off their money; believe me honey

You can have so much fun with that money

 

Momof2inME

It's My Life - The Animals

We've been together since way back when
Sometimes I never want to see you again
But I want you to know, after all these years
You're still the one I want whisperin' in my ear

Mini1

Still the one - Orleans

I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming

"A Change Is Gonna Come" - Sam Cooke  (and there is a version by Wayne Brady-seriously-that is suprisingly good, check YT.)

I'm thinking about when I was a sailor
Spent my time on the open seas
When we'd stay off the coast of Jamaica
I'd secretly steal ashore
The natives were waiting for
The boy with the lazy soul
To sing with the sailor

badger

Vahevala - Kenny Loggins (edit to say --- Loggins & Messina -- from Sittin' In)

elimar, I knew Tumbling Dice but thought of the version by Linda Ronstadt.

I have often asked myself the reason for the sadness
In a world where tears are just a lullaby.
If there's any answer, maybe love can end the madness
Maybe not, oh, but we can only try.

badger

that's from "Beautiful" by Carole King

Raven hair and ruby lips
Sparks fly from her finger tips
Echoed voices in the night
She's a restless spirit on an endless flight

Mini1

Witchy Woman by the Eagles

Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all,
Or if he moves will he fall?

Iron Man ~ Black Sabbath

History shows again and again

How Nature points out the folly of man

badger

Godzilla - Blue Oyster Cult

He's the hairy-handed gent who ran amuck in Kent
Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
Better stay away from him
He'll rip your lungs out, Jim
I'd like to meet his tailor

"Werewolves Of London" - Warren Zevon

"And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know..."

Mini1

Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone. Bill Withers

Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying

Suzanne3131

What's Going On....Marvin Gaye

Well on the way

Head in the cloud

The man of a thousand voices

Talking perfectly loud

elimar86861

"Fool On The Hill" - The Beatles

Yes, I was just thirteen, you might say I was a
Musical proverbial knee-high
When I heard a couple new-sounding tunes on the tubes
And they blasted me sky-high
And the record man said every one is a Yellow Sun
Record from Nashville
And up North there ain't nobody buys 'em
And I said, but I will

badger

Been playin' since they's babies, those Nashville Cats - Lovin' Spoonful - Good one, E!

The first time that I got it
I was just ten years old
I got it from some kitty next door
I went and see the doctor and
He gave me the cure
I think I got it some more

Cat Scratch Fever - Ted Nugent

She was a fast machine
She kept her motor clean
She was the best damn woman I had ever seen
