The song lyrics thread has made me think that you guys might enjoy a game I've been playing on another board. Link the Lyrics is played with a series of excerpts from song lyric(s); the object is to post lyrics which duplicate a word or phrase included in the immediately preceding post.
So - if I posted the lyrics from You're Having My Baby [bushasuru emoticon], someone could follow with the lyrics from Baby, Baby, Don't Get Hooked on Me [bushasuru-again e]. In posting lyrics, please ~
~ confine the lyrics to four lines or less, unless the song is out of copyright
~ boldface the linking word or phrase
~ identify the title of the song, and
~ identify the composer or first performer of the song
OK. Here we go.
*********************************
Seventy six trombones caught the morning sun,
With a hundred and ten cornets right behind.
There were more than a thousand reeds springing up like weeds,
there were horns of ev'ry shape and kind.
-- 76 Trombones, from The Music Man, Meredith Willson

There's no use in crying, it's all over
But I know there'll always be another day
Well my heart will rise up with the morning sun
And the hurt I feel will simply melt away
Why, Christine McVie

There'll always be an England
While there's a country lane,
Wherever there's a cottage small
Beside a field of grain.
There'll always be an England
While there's a busy street,
Wherever there's a turning wheel,
A million marching feet.
There'll always be an England -- Parker & Charles

I fell in love and my love still grows.
Ask any fool that she ever knew, they'll say,
"A-keep away from-a runaround Sue."

Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone Susanne the plans they made put an end to you I walked out this morning and I wrote down this songI just can't remember who to send it to James Taylor Fire and Rain Edit: Additional info: On October 20, 2001, in Madison Square Garden, a chilling prophetic accuracy came over this song as James Taylor, along with other rock, pop, and movie stars, entertained an audience of six thousand firefighters, police officers, emergency workers, and their families and thanked them for their dedication and hard work in the aftermath of September 11’s tragedy. Suddenly Suzanne was just one in over five thousand who died there in the attack on the World Trade Center, and it was the plans of a few terrorists that brought an end to her—and them—leaving a nation disoriented and distraught. Like James, we wrote down our feelings, but we didn’t know what to do with them. http://www.pfmonline.net/features.taf?ID=136

Let me put back the full original post for you, that was mailed to my home address as with all my public repsonses here:
Unless I'm missing something, W'ON, you need to take a look at the rules here.
Funny how your antagonistic posts always seem to change after your targets see them. This is a fun thread.

Whit -- immediately after clicking of my original post I modified it to be more gentle to you -- surely you do not object to that? [Though I don't think the original was particular unkind or antagonistic.]
I do not see how your "Wild Thing" post links to the previous one (Hev's) under sparteye's rules -- nor how your prior "Any Old Kind of Day" post links up. Please illuminate me by PM. Thank you.

It's a long, long journey so stay by my side.
When I walk through the storm, you'll be my guide.
If they gave me a fortune, my pleasure would be small;
I could lose it all tomorrow and never mind at all.
But if I should lose your love, Dear, I don't know what I'd do,
For I know I'll never find another you.

it really easy for two people to respond to the same song, at almost the same time.. given the lag of our ISP's and modems, we might not be aware of it. it seem Whit, that you, like I, repsonded a 30 seconds or so after an other post. It doesn't take a genius to see which song you were responding too.., and that you were not ignoring anyone. just as i wasn't -- but i was the second responder (again, momemts after the first to The Falible Fiend. Fortunately, they realized i am also falible, and didn't chastize me!)

She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you
to see
She hides like a child
But she's always a woman to me

They say that I can move the mountains
And send them falling to the sea
They say that I can walk on water
If I would follow and believe
with faith like a child

I believe, for every drop of rain that falls,
A flower grows . . .
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night,
A candle glows . . .

I went down to the sacred store
Where I'd heard the music years before,
But the man there said the music wouldn't play.

The apple tree that grew for you and me,
I watched the apples falling one by one.
And as I recall the moment of them all,
The day I kissed your cheek and you were gone

sssshh, be discreet Whitie-o, these people aren't that dumb. They might catch on to our collusion.
(spoken) Hey there's Charlie. Hey Charlie! Man am I glad to see you. Look Charlie, I want another drink, you know when I got money I always buy you a drink. Look at me, I'm shaking like a leaf. At least you could stand me for a ten-cent shot. You will? Man you're looking good to me!
Thank You, thank you, thank you, Big Mary.
Thank you for what you done for me.
You'd be my woman, if you hadn't gone back to your use ta be.

The day she died, the neighbours came to snicker
Well, that's what comes of too much pills and liquor
But when I saw her laid out like a queen
She was the happiest corpse I'd ever seen

And I remember how you held me the night my father died
I didn't have to tell you I just broke down and cried
You're sewn into the fabric, the pieces of my life
And I just can't remember why we said goodbye

Sometimes a bottle of perfume
flowers and maybe some lace
Men brought louise 10 cent trinkets
Their intentions were easily traced
And everybody knew at times she cried
Ah but women like Louise they get by

What happened to that funny face
My little tomboy now wears satin and lace
I can't believe my eyes you're just a teenage dream
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
If I should smile with sweet surprise
It's just that you've grown up before my very eyes
You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen

As long as I

Though there be rain
And darkness too
I'll not complain

Louise, The sweetest girl I'll ever know.
I'd walk from Chicago,
to the gulf of Mexico.
You know the night time is the right time,
to be with the one you love, you know when night comes Baby,
God knows, you so far away, Louise...

Oh I've seen fire and I've seen rain,
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end,
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend,
But I always thought I'd see you, baby, one more time again.

I could be happy the rest of my life
With a cinnamon girl.

You see us together, chasing the moonlight,
My cinnamon girl.

We were sailing along
On Moonlight Bay,
You could hear the voices calling,
They seemed to say,
"You have broken my heart,
Now don't go away,"
As we sang our old sweet song on Moonlight Bay.
--Early 20th century popular song, USA (I'd have to look up the composer)

Sunshine go away today,
I don't feel much like dancin',
Some man's gone and tried to run my life,
I don't know what he's askin'.
How much does it cost? (I'll buy it)
The time is all we've lost (I'll try it)
And he can't even run his own life,
I'll be damned if he'll run mine!
