And a good Day-o to you too, Wordwind, and thanks.
I, the mechanical Praying Mantis, have been lurking and waiting here in the far right side of your computer screen 
for an innocent, beautiful, Golden-Green Jeweled Dragon-fly-ness
like you to become entangled in the sticky crystalline
words of this web thread. NOW I POUNCE...
New Jersey turnpike in the wee wee hours
I was rolling slowly 'cause of Christmas showers
Up come a flattop he was movin'up with me
Then waved good-bye in a little ole souped up fifty
I put my foot in my tank and I blew my horn
Bye Bye New Jersey I become airborne
'Cause you can't catch me
'Cause if you get to close you know I'm gone
like a COOOOooooooOOOOL Breeze!
THE SONG AFTER MAYBELENE - Chuck Berry
Note: It would have been fitting to follow Wordwind's caribbean theme with
Chuck Berry's Havana Moon - a great song.
But I couldn't find a single word to match.
Besides I wanted to experiment with my wide screen cute-ism.
It worked on my screen, but if it messed up anybodys scroll, PM me and I'll delete it. -mw

Havana moon, Havana moon
Me lay down alone, was good the rum
Me fall asleep, the boat she come
The girl she look till come the dawn
She weep and cry, "Return for home"
The whistle blow, me open me eyes
Was bright the sun, was blue the sky
Me grab me shoes, me jump and run
Me see the boat head for horizon
Havana moon, is gone the rum
The boat she sail, me love she gone
Havana moon, Havana moon
Didn't catch her either!
Havana Moon
Chuck Berry

Don't worry about a thing
cause every little thing is gonna be alright
don't worry about a thing
every little thing is gonna be alright
Rise up this morning
smiled with the rising sun
three little birds
pitch by my door step
singing sweet songs
of melodies pure and true
saying, this is my message to you:
don't worry about a thing...
Three Little Birds -Bob Marley

C'mon angel my hearts on fire
Don't deny your man's desire
You'd be a fool to stop this tide
Spread your wings and let me come inside
Tonights the night
It's gonna be alright
Cause I love you girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now
"Tonight's The Night"

Everything dies baby that's a fact
But maybe everything that dies someday comes back
Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City

I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance
Looking for a little romance
Given half a chance
I have never seen that dress you're wearing
Or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes
I have been blind
The Lady in red
Is dancing with me
Cheek to cheek
redThere's nobody here
It's just you and me
It's where I want to be
And I hardly know there's beauty by my side
I'll never forget the way you look tonight
The Lady in Red by Chris DeBurgh
This one goes out to our very own Lady in Red.

Hearts of fire creates love desire Take you high and higher to the world you belong Hearts of fire creates love desire High and higher to your place on the throne We’ve come together on this special day To sing our message loud and clear Looking back we’ve touched on sorrowful days Future pass, they disappear You will find peace of mind If you look way down in your heart and soul Don’t hesitate ‘cause the world seems cold Stay young at heart ‘cause you’re never (never, never, ..) old at heart That’s the way of the world Plant your flower and you grow a pearl A child is born with a heart of gold The way of the world makes his heart grow cold THAT'S THE WAY OF THE WORLDMaurice White, Charles Stepney & Verdine White POST EDIT Qweek Draw strikes again! Oh, please Mr. Milo, make the thread go unwide. Please please please? Please!

Everything [dies] baby that's a fact
But maybe everything that [dies] someday comes BACK.
...er...that you Whitty?...O O...a little spooky on the
board tonight...O O...ah come on whitty, is that you?...
The night was black rain fallin' down
Looked for my baby she's no where around
I traced her footsteps down to the shore
Afraid she's gone for ever more
I looked at the sea, and it seemed to say
I took your baby from you away
I heard a voice cryin' from the deep
Come join me baby in my endless sleep
Why did we quarrel why did we fight
Why did I leave her alone tonight
That's why her foot steps ran into to the sea
That's why my baby has gone from me
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
I took your baby from you away
I heard a voice cryin' from the deep
Come join me baby in my endless sleep
I ran in the water heart full of fear
There in the break I saw her near
I reached for my darlin' held her to me
I stole her away from the angry sea
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
You took your baby from me away
My heart cried out she's mine to keep
I saved my baby from an endless sleep.
ENDLESS SLEEP - Marshell Crenshaw
POST EDIT: Consuelo, why is it that the minute
I turn my back you and troves take my place in line?
Gee Whizzz...

Long time ago, on a cold dark night,
Someone was killed beneath the town hall light
Just a few on the scene, and they did agreed,
That the man who ran, looked a lot like me.
The judge said, "Son, what's your alibi?
If you were some where else then you don't have to die."
I spoke not a word, though it meant my life,
For I had been in the arms of my best friend wife.
.................................................
She walks these hills in a long dark veil
She visits my grave, when the night winds wail
No body knows and no body sees,
No body knows but me.

I think I’ll take a walk in the sunshine,
The summer sun’s calling my name,
I’m happy now,
I just can’t stay inside all day,
I gotta get out get me some of those ray-a-ays
Everybody’s happy, sunshine day-ays
The Partridge Family
Didn't the Brady Bunch (The Brady 5?) actually do this one???
"I think I'll go for a walk outside now
The summer sun's callin' my name!
Don't worry now I just can't stay outside all day
Gotta get out, gotta get me some of those rays!
Everybody's laughin'
Sunshine day!
Everybody's smilin'
Sunshine day!
Everybody seems, so happy today!
It's a Sunshine day!"

THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT
Aretha Franklin
By Bob Lance and Fran Robbins
This is the house that Jack built, y'all
Remember this house!
This was the land that he worked by hand
The was the dream of an upright man
This was the room that was filled with love
This was a love that I was proud of
This was a life of a love I planned
Of a love and a life we loved
Of the house that Jack built.
Remember this house!

Well I can't read and I can't write
And I don't know my left from right.
I can't tell if the sun's gonna shine
And I don't know if you'll ever be mine,
But I'll make love to you any old time at all.
I can't swim and I can't fly,
I ain't no fish, ain't a bird in the sky.
I'll Make Love To You Anytime-J. J. Cale

My Melancholy Baby
Come to me my melancholy baby,
Cuddle up and don't be blue . . .
All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe
You know dear that I'm in love with you!
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too!
< instrumental break >
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too!
Music by Ernie Burnett
with lyrics by George A. Norton , 1912

You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby
You must have been a beautiful baby
You must have been a wonderful child
When you were only starting to go to kindergarten
I bet you drove the little boys wild.
And when it came to winning blue ribbons
You must have shown the other kids how.
I can see the judges' eyes as they handed you the prize
You must have made the cutest bow.
You must have been a beautiful baby
'Cause baby look at you now.
Johnny Mercer & Harry Warren

Isn't it the most?
All we are saying is give peace a chance.

I wanna tell you just how I feel
I had a dream baby, I thought it was real
I woke up in love, now you're all I think of
Every day I'm wastin' time
I'm wonderin' how, to make you mine
I'm just wishin' it could be, you feel the same for me
Since that day I've been lost
I jumped on a alligator, I thought it was a horse
I took one hell of a ride, down on bayou side
If I could take you to the fais-do-do
We could dance on end, all across the floor
And we could do it for a while, Louisiana style
I wanna take you to the fais-do-do
Where we can dance baby, until we can't stand no more
I wanna do it for a while,
Louisiana style - Tab Benoit

She's waiting for another love.
She's waiting for another love.
She's been waiting for another love,
Someone that she can show into her heart.
And when she finally finds a stronger love,
Your whole world's gonna fall apart.
She's Waiting - Eric Clapton

Nicole: Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs
Ewan: Well, what's wrong with that? I'd like to know, Cause, here I go again! Love lifts us up where we belong, Where eagles fly on a mountain high
Nicole: Love makes us act like we are fools, Throw our lives away, For one happy day
Ewan: We could be heroes, Just for one day
Nicole: You, you will be mean
Ewan: No, I won't
Nicole: And I... I'll drink all the time
Ewan: We should be lovers
Nicole: We can't do that
Ewan: We should be lovers, And that's a fact
Nicole: No, nothing will keep us together
Ewan: We could steal time, Just for one day
Both: We could be heroes, Forever and ever, We could be heroes, Forever and ever, We could be heroes
Ewan: Just because I will always love you
Nicole: I can't help loving you... How wonderful life is
Both: Now, you're in the world
