Kick off your shoes start losin' the blues
This old house ain't got nothin' to lose
Seen it all for years, start spreadin' the news
We got room on the floor, come on baby shake sumpin' loose [/B]

The House is a Rockin by the great SRV!

Hiya AA! Still awake I see . . .

Try this:

It's late in the evening
She's wond'ring what clothes to wear
She puts on her makeup
And brushes her long blond hair
And then she asks me "Do I look alright?"

Yup...almost ready to hit the rack--that one is Wonderful Tonight--Eric Clapton


Another--

I used to be such a sweet, sweet thing
'Til they got a hold of me.
I opened doors for little old ladies,
I helped the blind to see.
I got no friends 'cause they read the papers.
They can't be seen with me and I'm gettin' real shot down
And I'm feeling mean.

Couldn't get this at first, then suddenly a light came on . . .

Alice Cooper? No More Mr Nice Guy?

Try this - Brit band!

Sun is shinin' in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin' everybody's in a play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day

Try this--(Last lyric is VERY distinctive)...heading to bed now

He feels the piston scraping --
steam breaking on his brow --
old Charlie stole the handle and
the train won't stop going --
no way to slow down.
He sees his children jumping off
at the stations -- one by one.
His woman and his best friend --
in bed and having fun.
He's crawling down the corridor
on his hands and knees --
old Charlie stole the handle and
the train won't stop going --
no way to slow down.
He hears the silence howling --
catches angels as they fall.
And the all-time winner has got him by the balls.

Locomotive Breath / Jethro Tull (off Aqualung?)

Here's one for you when you wake up!

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say .. Women ... they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean .. you'll know

Happy dreams, AA!

The Fleetwood Mac title is Say You Love Me and the song is Led Zeppelin--Since I've Been Loving You.

Another--(Easy One)

Come out Virginia, don't let me wait
You Catholic girls start much too late
Ah but sooner or later it comes down to fate
I might as well, will be the one

Well they showed you a statue and told you to pray
They built you a temple and locked you away
Ah but they never told you the price that you pay
For things that you might have done

Another one hit wonder...a bit harder


There are times when a woman has to say what's on her mind
Even though she knows how much it's gonna hurt
Before I say another word let me tell you I love you
Let me hold you close and say these words as gently as I can

There's been another man that I've needed and I've loved
But that doesn't mean I love you less
And he knows you can't possess me and he knows he never will
There's just this empty place inside of me that only he can fill

Torn between 2 lovers. Mary MacGregor

New Lyrics:

Tonight there's thunder in the sky
Just like the night you said goodbye
And what's left of a heartache
Runs like rain from my eyes

Winds Of Change--Fleetwood Mac


Another...I love this one and it is very distinctive--

Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me where is sanity
Tax the rich, feed the poor
Till there are no rich no more?

Id Like To Change The World (Ten Years After)
 
How about...


Suzanne takes you down, to a place by the river ?


(this is way too way too easy)

Suzanne...Judy Collins

This should be relatively easy...

...When he came upon this young man
Sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot
And the devil jumped
Up on a hickory stump
And said boy let me tell you what--

Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy;
But give the devil his due
I'll bet a fiddle of gold
Against your soul
'Cause I think I'm better than you
 
Yes..my favourite version of Suzanne is by Nina Simone :)
 
New lyrics:

He came on a summer's day
Bringin' gifts from far away
But he made it clear he couldn't stay
No harbor was his home

Brandy (You're a fine girl)

"I got a freaky old lady named Cocaine Kitty
Who embroiders on my jeans
I got my poor old gray haired Daddy
Drivin my limosine
Well it's all designed
to blow our minds but our minds
Won't really be blown"

you had the right song, wrong group. It was the Scorpions! unless Fleetwood Mac did it later, but I don't think so.

Devil went down to Georgia Charlie Daniels Band.

Those schoolgirl days of telling tales and biting nails are gone
But in my mind I know they still will live on and on

To Sir; With Love--Lulu

try this...(the **** **** are the actual song title)

Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
gonna grab some ****** **********.
My motto's always been; when it's right, it's right.
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night.
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day.
And you know the night is always gonna be there any way.

new lyrics

I've seen you twice, in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me, for every time
I'm getting more open-hearted
