Thanks to Sparteye! (this threads a "hit"!)  (for newcomers, we found out a long while ago that, for the threaded viewers, when a thread gets to 99 posts it makes it easier for viewing if we start a continuation. And flat viewers don't have to open a second page either.) Ha ha! I beat ya W'ON, but I'll be gracious...Wrong or right be mine tonight Harsh world be damned we'll make a stand Love can bind but mine is blind Others stray, but I won't walk away I won't walk away - Jewell Hev

It's knowing that your door is always open and your path is free to walk That makes me tend to keep my sleeping bag rolled up and stashed behind your couch And it's knowing I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds, and the ink stains that have dried up on some line, That keeps you in the backroads by the rivers of my memory, that keeps you ever Gentle On My MindGentle On My Mind, John Hartford (RIP '01...loved that guy!)

Breaking up is never easy, I know but I have to go
(I have to go this time
I have to go, this time I know)
Knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do

boronia - the comment was not on the merits of the song, in fact, I quite like the song, but on your attribution of the artist. Did Helen Reddy really do a version of Mercedes Benz? Eh, probably. But the thought of it makes me giggle. And I'll bet 999 people out of 1000 would first think of the Janis Joplin version.

I feel upon my lips again

Tasting much sweeter than wine
I will return, yes I will return
I'll come back for the honey and you

Oh-oh it's so hot outside and the air is so sweet
And when the pressure drop is heavy I don't want to hear you speak
You know most killing is committed at ninety degrees
When it's too hot to breathe and it's too hot to think.

From this time now and on.
Never speak harsh words to your true loving husband.
He may leave you and never return.

Under the Arctic fire
Over the seas of silence
Hauling on frozen ropes
For all my days remaining
But would north be true?
All colours bleed to red
Asleep on the ocean's bed
Drifting in empty seas
For all my days remaining
But would north be true?
Why should I?
Why should I cry for you?

Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence. ...

I went to my brother to ask for a loan
'cause I was busted.
the food that we planted last summer was gone,
and I was busted.
My brother said "Ray, there ain't a thing I can do,
me and my wife are both down with the flu,
and I was just thinking 'bout calling on you,
because I'm busted."

And I've waited for your company
And I'm hoping that you'll come back to me

I'm goin' my way, your lover.
If you get cold I'll be your cover.
Don't have to worry `cause I'm here,
No need to suffer baby, I'm here.
Sam and Dave : Hold On I'm Comin
And I just gotta add:
Baby baby, sweet baby
I didn't mean to run you away
It was pride on my lips,
But not in my heart
To say the things that made you stray
But ah, babe
Hear me now
(hear me)
I don't know what I'm gonna do
(hear me)
Got to get you back somehow
(hear me now)
Oooh, take me back,
consider me please
If you walk in that door,
I can get up off my knees
I just been so blue

Sometimes you wonder how much I care
I get so distracted runnin' nowhere
And I take for granted our love is secure
But if I started losin' you, one thing is sure
I'd be down on my knees
Ready to pray, darlin'
Down on my knees
Making you stay
I'd be beggin' you please
Don't take your love from me
I'd be down on my knees
Down on My Knees

Are the stars out tonight?
I don’t know if it's cloudy or bright
’Cause I only have eyes for you,

You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you

Tonight, tonight, won't be just any night,
Tonight there will be no morning star
Tonight, tonight, I'll see my love tonight.
And for us, stars will stop where they are.
Today the minutes seem like hours,
The hours go so slowly,
and still the sky is light
Oh moon, grow bright,
And make this endless day endless night!

And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

Watching the tide roll away
Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay

Fight Song:
Roll Alabama, Crimson Tide
Go teach the Bulldogs to behave,
Send the yellow jackets to a watery grave.
And if the band starts to weaken, that's a shame,
Remember the battles we fought in Dixie's name.
Fight on, fight on, fight on, men,
Remember the Rose Bowl, we'll win then,
Go Alabama,
Dixie's football pride, Crimson Tide.

Our boys are strong now
The spittin' image of you when you were young
I hope someday
They can see past, what you have become
And I remember
Everytime I said I'd never leave
But what I can't live with
Is memories of the way you used to be

Try to remember when life was so tender
that no one wept except the willow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
that dreams were kept beside your pillow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
that love was an ember about to billow.

In a cavern, in a canyon,
Excavating for a mine,
You are lost and gone forever,
Oh my darlin' Clementine.

There she was, just a '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 (looked good!),
she looked fine (looked fine!)
She looked good, she looked fine, and I nearly lost my mind

He met Marmelade down on old Moulin Rouge,
Struttin' his stuff on the street,
She said, "Heh, Joe, you wanna give it a go?"
Gitchy, gitchy, ya, ya, Da-da...
Have no idea who wrote this--just hear it (probably incorrectly) on the Moulin Rouge CD.

Oh so pretty

I know we never will be perfect
Never entirely clear
(when the moon shines)
We get hurt and we just panic
And we strike out
Out of fear
(you were only being kind)
I fear the sentence of this solitude
200 years on hold
(for my loving crime)
Oh and all we ever wanted
Was just to come in from the cold
Come in from the Cold - Joni Mitchell

Far away from the cold night air,
With one enormous chair,
Oh, wouldn't it be loverly?

So far away,
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door,
Don't it hurt to know that you're so
Far way.

Baby, I was convinced that I'd been abandoned by God.
That I was one in a million souls, somehow he forgot.
But now that I've found you it makes perfect sense.
And I would go through it all again.

With a small bouquet
And he'll kiss your lips
Andcaress your fingertips
And your heart will fly away

She got back on the phone
Said I really miss you darling
Don't worry about the kids they'll be alright
Wish I was in your arms
Lying right there beside you
But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
And I'll gently kiss your lips
Touch you with my fingertips
So turn out the light and close your eyes
I'm Already There

Ladies and gentlemen let's give a large and resounding welcome to that most talented, and most neglected group in the history of Rhythm and Blues, Ladies and Gentlemen...***The Five Royals***...
There's a lot of fast trains running through the land,
they all carrying a heavy load.
And if I lay my head on the railroad track
You know that's the end of the road,
So baby come on, (come on and save me)
Come On and Save Me, -The Five Royals

So I'm holdin' on-I'm feelin' strong-baby you're the one
For all my life!
Yeah I'm holdin' out-there ain't no doubt-I can't live without
You all my life!
I'm holdin' on to love to save my life
Save me, save me, save me
Save my life
I'm Holdin' On To Love

hold on, I'm comin'.

Tonight I'm only thinking of you,
Feeling sorry for myself, that's all I can do.
Without you here, I know I'd fall apart.
Oh, so at night, I dream I'm holding you in my arms
(And when I dream you're in my arms)

So come back Baaaaabee. Ooooooo Lawd, let's talk it over

I feel like I can't go on, oh lord!

And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see

There's a full moon tonight,
but the moon's silvery light
Makes me lonely, so lonely, and blue.
I tried to pretend, that these blues, soon would end,
but they won't end, until I'm with you.
I tried to be a good sport, just as I know, you'd have me be,
But instead, I'm just a blue note, from a sound of misery.
No peace, can I find, 'cause you're always on my mind,
And I'm lonely. so lonely and blue.
Lonely and Blue, -B. B. King

When we're winning
We'll be singing

But I get up again
You're never going to keep me down

I've been pissing in the wind
I chance a foolish grin
And dribbled on my chin
And now the ground shifts beneath my feet
The faces that I greet never know my name

My lodging it is on the cold ground,
And oh! very hard is my fare,
But that which troubles me most is
The unkindness of my dear.

Please don't bury me down in that cold, cold ground
No I'm gonna have 'em cut me up and pass me all around
Throw my brain in a hurricane and the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears if they don't mind the size

...and crawl home to you.

You can hold the people down
But the spirit's gonna rise
Rise up and Shine
Put their backs against the wall
You can try to make them crawl
Don't you know that someday
The King's gonna fall.

And it’s up against the wall redneck mother
Mother who has raised her son so well (so well! so well! so well!).
He’s thirty-four and drinking in them honky-tonks
Just kicking all them hippies’ asses raising hell.

Will The Circle Be Unbroken
I was standing by my window
on one cold and cloudy day
when I saw that hearse come rolling
for to carry my mother away
Lord I told that undertaker
undertaker please drive slow
for this body you are hauling
Lord, I hate to see her go

Well I gave you ev'rything I had,
But you left me sitting on my own,
Did you have to treat me oh so bad,
All I do is hang my head and moan.
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me,
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me.
