Adam Ant~Desperate But Not Serious

hehehe...just put 2 of his tapes in a box for my garage sale...

the tape this song is from just went in too...

I met my be-bop baby at the Union Hall
She could dance all night and shake the paint off the walls
But when I saw her smile across a crowded room
Well I knew we'd have to leave the party soon
As the band began to play out of tune

HEYYYYYYYYY I know that one....

That's "And we Danced" by the Hooters....awesome song IB

I lose control when I'm close to you babe
I lose control don't look at me like this
There's something in your eyes, is this love at first sight
Like a flower that grows, life just wants you to know
All the secrets of life

Ooooops . .

Ok . . . here we go:
He was born in Oklahoma,
His wife's name's Betty Lou Thelma Liz
And he's not responsible for what he's doing
Cause his mother made him what he is.

Sure does like his Falstaff beer,
Likes to chase it down with that Wild Turkey liquor;
Drives a fifty-seven GMC pickup truck;
He's got a gun rack; "Goat ropers need love, too" sticker

Well,
M is for the mudflaps you give me for my pickup truck
O is for the Oil I put on my hair
T is for T-bird
H is for Haggard
E is for eggs, and
R is for REDNECK.

Had to leave the really obvious chorus out . . . still too easy!

Jerry Jeff Walker - Up Against The Wall Redneck Mother

Well, your face is shinin’ by a firefly’s spark
Drives me out of my head right into my heart
What you gonna do about that?
Nothing you can do about that

We’ve got our facts and fission
Forgot our secret mission
Don’t let them stop you wishin’
The stars are calling out for you

Peter Mayer - "Meet Me Under the Moonlight"

Trina takes her paints and her threads
And she weaves a pattern all her own
Annie bakes her cakes and her breads
And she gathers flowers for her home
For her home she gathers flowers
And Estrella, dear companion
Colors up the sunshine hours
Pouring music down the canyon-
Coloring the sunshine hours . . .

Joni Mitchell~Ladies of the Canyon

I played around now, I've done some dealin'
I found that love should be with you
And so you're gone now, my head is reelin', don't wanna be with someone new

And so I go, with a feeling inside me, 'cause I know what I'm leaving behind

Back to .38 Special, huh?

"Where You Belong"

Oh, the night was clear and the stars were shinin'
and the moon came up,... so quiet in the sky
And all the people gathered round while the band was a-tunin'
I can hear them now ... playin' 'Comin' Through the Rye'

She was dressed in blue and she looked so lovely
just a gentle flower of a small town girl
Then he took her hand and they danced to the music
with a single smile ... she became his world

Nanci Griffith, who sings on LTC with Jimmy on the song "Someone I Used To Love" . . .

The song is called "Roseville Fair".

Someone else's turn or do I go again??

tikitatas · Post by **tikitatas** » September 15, 2004 7:56 pm

All righty . . . I'll go again!

Well I hope that the friend that you've thrown yourself on
Gets drunk and loses her job
And every road that you travel on
Is dusty rocky and hard

I couldn't make you love me
You only made me blue
So all in all if the curtain should fall
Then I hope that it falls on you . . .
