Some say he was vicious, malicious and ambitious, But no one ever said it to his face. Sometimes at night I wake up in fright, I think his time is once again due; he was far but now he's nearing, soon he'll be appearing in a theatre of war near you! Oh, those who can walk better carry the wounded and those who can't walk better run. What's that sound in my eardrums? Here comes Attila the Hun! Hubba-hubba, wanga-wanga-be-bop!

Put yourself in the place of the man at the forge And day after day you live a life without love ’til the morning you can’t take it anymore And you don’t get up -- Todd Rundgren

maverick Carpal Tunnel Registered: 09/15/00 Posts: 4683	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 you.

themilum veteran Registered: 05/25/02 Posts: 1529 Loc: Aladamnbama the most watered s...	Quote: tsuwm wrote: no, don't bother to thank me. but hey, ship that toe postage paid, would you? My dear tsuwm, you are quite the good fairy. The ink was hardly dry on my song request when you so kindly posted the obscure 1939 song "We'll meet Again" as recorded by the Ink Spots. My friend, I hope you'll forgive the spelling errors in my post. When I typed "toe" I meant "toad" and when I typed "left" I meant "lefty", so now instead of my left toe I'm sending you a toad named "Lefty". I hope you understand. And one more thing...the dern post office wouldn't let me ship a live toad so I pointed Lefty north and set him hopping. But no need to worry about Lefty, I warned him to watch out for double-talking weasels because they can't be trusted. Thanks again. No gal made has got a shade on Sweet Georgia Brown; Two left feet but oh so neat, has Sweet Georgia Brown. They all sigh and wanna die for Sweet Georgia Brown; I'll tell you why, you know I don't lie...much. It's been said she knocks 'em dead when she lands in town; Since she came, why it's a shame how she coos 'em down. Fellers she can't get are fellers she ain't met. Georgia claimed her, Gergia named her, Sweet Georgia Brown. No gal made has got a shade on Sweet Georgia Brown; Two left feet but oh so neat has Sweet Georgia Brown. They all sigh and wanna die for Sweet Georgia Brown;, I'll tell you just why, you know i don't lie, not much! All those tips the porter slips to Sweet Georgia Brown;, They buy clothes at fashion shows with one dollar down, Oh boy tip your hats, oh joy, she's the "cat's" Who's that, mister? 'Tain't her sister -- Sweet Georgia Brown. Sweet Georgia Brown _______________________recorded by Louis Armstrong 1949 Words & Music by Ben Bernie, Maceo Pinkard & Kenneth Casey (1925?) (Notes: Few songs in the history of music have been recorded by so many different artists from so many different genres. Allmusic.com lists more than 1,100 releases. It has been done by just about everyone from Pat Boone to the Beatles, from Bing Crosby to Buddy Greco, by most of the big bands, by vocal groups from The Ink Spots and The Mills Brothers to The Los Angeles Jazz Choir, by virtually all of the giants of jazz, even country artists from Roy Rogers to Willie Nelson. Yet the first version that often comes to mind is the whistled recording to which The Harlem Globetrotters basketball team still does their warmup routine before games.)
