Cream "Sunshine of your Love"

ok another...

" You hurt and abuse tellin' all of your lies.
Run around sweet baby, Lord how they hypnotize.
Sweet little baby, I don't know where you've been.
Gonna love you baby, here I come again."
Dazed And Confused--Led Zeppelin

Here's another from the 70's...(First words are the title)

*****, **** **--I've thought about us for a long, long time
Maybe I think too much but something's wrong
there's something here that doesn't last too long.
Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine.
Seeing you, or seeing anything as much as I do you,
I take for granted that you're always there,
I take for granted that you just don't care.
Sometimes I can't help seeing all the way through.
It's important to me
that you know you are free...
 
Well, have you seen that girl in the corner?
I'd like to take her out of her chains,
'Cause if I had my way with you baby,
I wouldn't change in your life today.
Your eyes got me dreaming.
Your eyes got me blind.
Your eyes got me hoping
That I'll be holding you close to mine.
Your eyes got me dreaming.
Your eyes got me blind.
Your eyes got me hoping
That I'll be holding you close to mine.

Was it Bob Welch? Ebony Eyes? :confused:

There'll be lots of time and wine
Red yellow honey, sassafras and moonshine
Red yellow honey
Sassafras and moonshine (moonshine)"
 

I'm feeling so tired, can't understand it
Just had a fortnights sleep
I'm feeling so tired, Ow!, so distracted
Ain't touched a thing all week

I'm feelin' drunk, juiced up and sloppy
Ain't touched a drink all night
Feeling hungry, can't see the reason
Just had a horsemeat pie

Yeah when you call my name
I salivate like a Pavlov dog
Yeah when you lay me out
My heart starts beating like a big bass drum, alright

Stoned Soul Picnic--The Fifth Dimension (love it)

Try this set--a jazz man...(saw him in concert with Kenny G as his kickoff act before Kenny G became hot stuff!)

Are we really happy with this lonely game we play
Looking for words to say
Searching but not finding understanding anyway
(This line is the song title...)

Both afraid to say we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play
 
Great, AA! I was thinking of Laura Nyro's version, hard to believe that she died a few years back. My older sister had one of her albums when I was in Jr. High - I loved her voice!

The lyrics I just posted were also done by Leon Russell, but this man is one of my fave jazz men. Laura Nyro's voice was heavenly--she had a lilt to her voice that I haven't heard since!

"You know that talk is cheap
And rumors ain't nice
And when I fall asleep
I don't think I'll survive

The night the night

'Cause they're waiting for me
Looking for me
Every single night
(They're) driving me insane
Those men inside my brain"

Dream Police--Cheap Trick

Now this set is real old...but hopefully easy--

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be proud, easy to say no

Especially people who care about strangers
Who care about evil and social injustice
Do you only care about bleeding crowd
How about a needing friend, I need a friend

How can people be so heartless
You know I'm hung up on you
Easy to be proud, easy to say no

Especially people who care about strangers
Who care about evil and social injustice
Do you only care about bleeding crowd
How about a needing friend, we all need a friend

Easy To Be Hard... Three Dog Night


This one should be really easy ;)

"Do anything, keep us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy.

You are the one who can make us all glad
By doin' that you break down in tears.

Please don't be sad if it was the straight life you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years."

I think this is Dear Mr Fantasy...I know Simon & Garfunkel did it and think Traffic did also.

try this one...(great rock tune)

We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile
We didn't have much time
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground

Deep Purple "Smoke on the Water"

ok here's one...

"It's getting late have you seen my mates
Ma tell me when the boys get here
It's seven o'clock and I want to rock
Want to get a belly full of beer

My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys
And my old lady she don't care
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots
A handfull of grease in her hair"
 
deep purple- smoke on the water




hey kids shake it loose together
the spotlighs hitting somthingthats been known to change the weather
we'll killl the fatted calf tonight
so stick around
your gonna hear electric music
solid walls of sound

Elton John--
Saturday Night's Alright For Fightin'

Last one for now...r/l calls

Well we got no choice
all the girls and boys
Makin' all that noise cause they found new toys.
Oh we can't salute ya
can't find a flag
If that don't suit ya
that's a drag.

HA - Schools Out Alice Cooper.

Love that guy.
 
Well, let her be somebody else's queen,
I don't want to know about it.
There's too many others that know what I mean,
And, that's why I got to live without it.


I'm in love with the girl I'm talking about,
I'm in love with the girl I can't live without.
I'm in love but I feel like I'm wearin' it out....
-------
new ones, hope I didn't screw up and take them from the 80's!
