Lady
Lady, when you're with me I'm smiling
Give me all your love
Your hands build me up when I'm sinking
Touch me and my troubles all fade
Lady, from the moment I saw you
Standing all alone
You gave all the love that I needed
So shy, like a child who has grown
'Cause you're my lady of the morning
Love shines in your eyes
Sparkling, clear, and lovely
You're my lady

You're in luck, your cute Styx song reminded me of an early Ray Charles song forgotten by time and his movie. Guess it and win a kiss. _______________________________________________ Well you've heard my song (I want to know)And my song is true (I want to know)But just remember, baby (I want to knowI'm depending on you (I want to know)'cause I want to know (I want to know)I want to know right now (I want to know)Will you stand by me? "cause when I'm down (up, up, up)Oh Lawd pick me up (up, up, up)Yaaaaaaooooh, and stand by me (OhooooooooooOh! stand...by... meeee)"_ ____ __ ____" by Ray Charles and some girls before the advent of the RayettesCome on etaoin, I'll email you a little hint.  Edit: Oops. Forgot to highlight the matching words.

Sorry girls, you lose, etaoin is johnny-on-the-spot with the correct answer.
Doesn't surprize, that etaoin has got a head on his shoulders
like a glass of beer which is exactly what will be waiting on him free-on-board at Faunsdale Cajun Bar and grill,
open at 3:00 in the morning during deer season.
Congratulations, etaoin.

Happy to oblige, Kelly123
My great Uncle Kenny would argue with himself long and loud about who had more panache,
the upstart Ink Spots or the Brothers Mills. Across the alley from the Alamo Lived a pinto pony and a Navajo Who sang a sort of Indian "Hi-de-ho" To the people passin' by The pinto spent his time a-swishin' flies And the Navajo watched the lazy skies And very rarely did they ever rest their eyes On the people passin' by One day, they went a walkin' along the railroad track They were swishin' not a-lookin' Toot! Toot!, they never came back Oh, across the alley from the Alamo When the summer sun decides to settle low A fly sings an Indian "Hi-de-ho" To the people passing by. Across The Alley From The Alamo

Movin' to Montana soon
Gonna be a Dental Floss tycoon

Movin' to Montana soon
Gonna be a mennil-toss flykune
I'm pluckin' the ol' Dennil Floss
That's growin' on the prairie
Pluckin' the floss!
I plucked all day an' all nite an' all Afternoon...
I'm ridin' a small tiny hoss
(His name is MIGHTY LITTLE)
He's a good hoss
Even though He's a bit dinky to strap a big saddle or

He's a bit dinky to strap a big saddle or

Any way I'm pluckin' the ol' Dennil Floss
Even if you think it is a little silly, folks
I don't care if you think it's silly, folks
I don't care if you think it's silly, folks
I'm gonna find me a horse
Just about this big
An' ride him all along the border line
With a Pair of heavy-duty
Zircon-encrusted tweezers in my hand
Every other wrangler would say
I was mighty grand
By myself I wouldn't
Have no boss
But I'd be raisin' my lonely Dental Floss
Raisin' my lonely Dental Floss
Raisin' my lonely Dental Floss
Well I might Ride along the border
With my tweezers gleamin'
In the moon-lighty night
And then I'd Get a cuppa cawfee
N' give my foot a push...
Just me 'n the pymgy pony
Over the Dennil Floss Bush
N' then I might just Jumb back on
An' ride Like a cowboy
Into the dawn to Montana

Say, Kelly123, will you kindly explain to the out-group what Frank Zappa meant in concocting the strange lyrics you posted above?
Thanks. There were bells on a hill But I never heard them ringing No I never heard them at all 'Til there was you There were birds in the sky But I never saw them winging No I never saw them at all 'Til there was you Then there was music And wonderful rosesThey tell me in sweet fragrant Meadows of dawn and dew There was love all around But I never heard it singing No I never heard it at all 'Til there was you ANITA BRYANT singing "Til There Was You"

...will you explain to the out-group what Frank Zappa meant in concocting... Yeah, that'll happen.  ******* Dig if u will the picture Of u and I engaged in a kiss The sweat of your body covers me Can u my darling Can u picture this? Dream if u can a courtyard An ocean of violets in bloom Animals strike curious poses They feel the heat The heat between me and u <refrain> How can u just leave me standing? Alone in a world that's so cold? (So cold) Maybe I'm just 2 demanding Maybe I'm just like my father 2 bold Maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied) Why do we scream at each other This is what it sounds like When doves cry Touch if u will my stomach Feel how it trembles inside You've got the butterflies all tied up Don't make me chase u Even doves have pride <refrain>, etc. When Doves Cry - The artist currently known as "Prince". (My apologies for the cut and pasting that retained the "u" for the word "you". I'm sure yule survive.)

Movin’ to the country,
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Peaches come from a can,
They were put there by a man
In a factory downtown
If I had my little way,
I’d eat peaches every day
Sun-soakin’ bulges in the shade
Take a little naps where the roots all twist
Squished a rotten peach in my fist
And dreamed about you, woman,
I poked my finger down inside
Make a little room for it to hide
Nature’s candy in my hand or can or a pie
Millions of peaches, peaches for me
Millions of peaches, peaches for free
Look out!
Peaches, The Presidents of the United States

Just a town like any other a second brand new start
A third or fourth hand wife or lover no, you won't break her heart
Take some bacon go on and leave your watch chain
She won't count on nothing more
Wrap your hands around that small change
and tiptoe barefoot out the door
Yes, something's wrong that restless feeling's been preying on my mind
When things get bad I'm bound to pack my bags and just
Leave them all behind

I'm Alabamy bound
They'll be no heebie-jeebies hanging 'round
Just gave the meanest ticket man on earth
All I'm worth, to put my tootsies in an upper berth.
Just hear the choo-choo sound
I know that soon we're gonna cover ground
And then I'll holler so the world will know,
Here I go!
I'm Alabamy,
I'm Alabamy bound
(I'm gone.)
Alabamy Bound
______________Al Jolson
I'm Alabamy bound (I'm Alabamy bound)
I'm Alabamy bound (I'm Alabamy bound)
And if the train don't stop and turn around
I'm Alabamy bound (I'm Alabamy bound)
(Hair don't curl)
And your eyes ain't blue
'Cause if you don't want me, sweet Polly Ann
(Well, I don't want you)
I'm Alabamy bound
And if the train down stop and turn around
I'm Alabamy bound (I'm Alabamy bound)
Alabamy Bound

Said Red Molly to James "That's a fine motorbike A girl could feel special on any such like" Said James to Red Molly, "Well my hat's off to you It's a Vincent Black Lightning, 1952And I've seen you at the corners and cafes it seems Red hair and black leather, my favorite color scheme" And he pulled her on behind And down to Box Hill they did ride "1952 Vincent Black Lightning" Richard Thompson

(What, Consuelo? I thought Van Morrison died in England of a drug overdose about a year after he recorded "Light My Fire" )I was down at the New Amsterdam staring at this yellow-haired girl Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with this black-haired flamenco dancer She dances while his father plays guitar She's suddenly beautiful We all want something beautiful I wish I was beautiful So come dance this silence down through the morning Cut Maria! Show me some of them Spanish dances Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones Believe in me Help me believe in anything I want to be someone who believes Mr. Jones and me, tell each other fairy tales
Stare at the beautiful women
"She's looking at you. Ah, no, no, she's looking at me."
Smiling in the bright lights
Coming through in stereo
When everybody loves you, you can never be lonelyI will paint my picture Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful Grey is my favorite colorI felt so symbolic yesterday If I knew Picasso I would buy myself a gray guitar and play Mr. Jones and me look into the future
Stare at the beautiful women
"She's looking at you.
Uh, I don't think so. She's looking at me."
Standing in the spotlight
I bought myself a gray guitar
When everybody loves me, I will never be lonelyI want to be a lion Everybody wants to pass as cats We all want to be big big stars, but we got different reasons for that Believe in me, because I don't believe in anything, and I want to be someone, to believe, to believe... Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio
Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
"She's perfect for you, Man, there's got to be somebody for me."
I want to be Bob Dylan
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
When everybody loves you, son, that's just about as funky as you can beMr. Jones and me, staring at the video When I look at the television, I want to see me staring right back at me We all want to be big stars, but we don't know why and we don't know how But when everybody loves me, I'm going to be just about as happy as can be Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars.. Mr. Jones

Me and Mrs. Jones, we got a thing going on, We both know that it's wrong But it's much too strong to let it cool down now. We meet ev'ry day at the same cafe, Six-thirty I know she'll be there, Holding hands, making all kinds of plans While the jukebox plays our favorite song. Me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones got a thing going on, Me and Mrs. Jones~Billy Paul I'm sure you meant Jim Morrison , Milo. Here's what Van Morrison's up to.

PIANO MAN
It's nine o' clock on a saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin.
He says, "Son can you play me a memory?
I'm not really sure how it goes,
But it's sad and it's sweet
And I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"
Sing us a song you're the piano man,
Sing us a song tonight.
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody.
And you've got us feelin' alright.

One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try, keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme, to explain in due time
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me (in the end)
You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter...

You turned me into an emotional prisoner
You hit me with words that cut to the bone
Then you kissed me and made me believe that
I needed you
And think I could never survive on my own
Never thought that I would break away
Now I see right through your power play
And I don't feel so helpless after all
Loving you was an endless fight
I was wrong and you were always right
But look what happened when I called
your bluff
When the truth comes out
you ain't so tough
You Ain't So Tough~Heart

It’s a matter of time 'til I
Fall in the middle of the town
There stands a tall brick wall
In the middle of a dream
Where time plays in between
The sound of lies rings funny
Against the truth

So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town
You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin eyes

I guess it was when my old lady left me and she took off with a salesman guy
I started to see things so differently, cut your own slice out of the pie
Yeah I grew up and it came clear to me all the smart cops on the make
You get a silver badge not an old tin star when you're on the take
It's pimps and whores, punk gang wars, robberies and homicides
When you walk the beat with the creeps on the street, well there ain't no way to hide

Next time you see me, things won't be the same
Yes, next time you see me, things won't be the same
And if it hurts you my darlin', you only have yourself to blame
Like a true, true sayin', all that shines is not gold
Yes, like a true, true sayin', all that shine is not gold
And like the good book says, you've got to reap 'zactly what you sow.
Well, you lied. cheated.
Uh-oh for so long
Well, you lied, cheated.
Uh-oh for so long
You're the wrong woman, baby, another queen is on your throne.
Next Time You See Me

Nowhere to run to, baby
Nowhere to hide
Got nowhere to run to, baby
Nowhere to hide
It's not love
I'm running from
It's the heartaches
That I know will come
'Cause I know
You're no good for me
But you`ve become
A part of me

Milo ~
All is well. No problem. Try this.
"And the line was drawn for another showdown
Like they'd always seen and done
And one mans night for a drunken old time
Left a scar on another one
Going out for a night on the town
Going out to the smoke and trees
Going out for a night on the town
Going out for a look and see
Said do what your daddy told you
Well I just went out and did that
Van and Willie went out one night."

Grandpappy told my pappy, back in my day, son
A man had to answer for the wicked that he done
Take all the rope in Texas
Find a tall oak tree, round up all of them bad boys
Hang them high in the street for all the people to see,
that...
Justice is the one thing you should always find
You got to saddle up your boys
You got to draw a hard line
When the gun smoke settles we'll sing a victory tune
Then we'll all meet back at the local saloon
We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces
Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
Beer For My Horses

Gunsmoke trail. Oh tell me of days gone by.
Tho' alone you still wind your way?
Are the ghostly horsemen riding,
As they speed eastern mail?
It's up to you see them through Gunsmoke trail.
The Gunsmoke has now faded from the blazing forty-fours!
The stage coach is rustin' on the hill.
The wagon wheels you used to feel, will sing their song no more!
The sound of the caravan is still! Gunsmoke trail.
No trav'ler to care where you go,
Sands of time are hidin' your way!
Bet if heaven ever let you
You could tell a rugged tale!
That's why I hate to see you fade.
Gunsmoke trail. Gunsmoke trail.
~The Theme from Gunsmoke

Shades of night are falling
As the wind be-gins to sigh
And the world's silhou-etted a-gainst the sky.
Blue Shadows on the Trail
Blue moon shinin' through the trees.
And a plain--tiff wail--- from the distance
Comes a driftin' on the evening breeze.
Move a-long, Blue Shadows, move a-long
Soon the dawn will come and you'll be on your way
Blue Shadows on the Trail~Sons of the Pioneers

The mama looked down and spit on the ground
Everytime my name gets mentioned
The papa said oy, if I get that boy
I'm gonna stick him in the house of detention
Well I'm on my way
I don't know where I'm going
I'm on my way
I'm taking my time
But I don't know where
Goodbye to Rosie the queen of Corona
See you, me and Julio
Down by the schoolyard
See you, me and Julio
Down by the schoolyard
Me and Julio down by the schoolyard...
from PS's Me and Julio down by the schoolyard

Down on the corner, out in the street,
Willy and the poorboys are playin’;
Bring a nickel; tap your feet.
Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile,
Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while.
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out on his kalamazoo.
Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo.

Chuck wrote and recorded "What Am I Living For?" and "I Don't Want To Hang Up My Rock and Roll Shoes" in 1957 and then died before both songs rose to near the top of the charts. He also wrote this song but I can't remember all the words...yet. (spoken) You know girls, I know you get tired of that man of yours coming home in dirty clothes, and smelling like cheap stale beer, and I know that sometimes you'd like to throw him out and get somebody new, But let me tell you... (sung) If you think that nobody wants him
Just put him out in the streets and you will see
Some woman will have your man,
Before you can count, one, two, three.<<<CHUCK WILLIS>>>

You might be a rock 'n' roll addict prancing on the stage,
You might have drugs at your command, women in a cage,
You may be a business man or some high degree thief,
They may call you Doctor or they may call you Chief
But you're gonna have to serve somebody , yes indeed
You're gonna have to serve somebody,
Well, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord
But you're gonna have to serve somebody.
Gotta Serve Somebody~ Bob Dylan

Well they call me the Doctor
In my neighborhood,
And the women they alls call me,
Doctor Feelgood.
Well you talk about women
I love 'em all
I love 'em big
And I love 'em tall
But if you don't weigh what I want, Baby
Don't come 'round at all.
Yeah you have to weigh
Three hundered pounds
Cause I am the Doctor
And I likes my women round
Well you talk about the women
In my neighborhood
And the women they talk about,
Doctor Feelgood
If you don't weigh what I want
Don't come 'round at all.
Dr. Feelgood
