30 days in the hole ~ Humble Pie

I can't seem to face up to the facts
I'm tense and nervous and I
Can't relax
I can't sleep 'cause my bed's on fire
Don't touch me I'm a real live wire


Psycho Killer - Talking Heads



Nightime's flyers feel their pains.
Drugstore takes down the chains.
Metal motion comes in bursts,
But the gas station can quench that thirst.

Be sure to hide the roaches"

Pre Road Downs- Crosby Stills and Nash

A poor girl wants to marry and a rich girl wants to flirt
A rich man goes to college and a poor man goes to work
A drunkard wants another drink of wine and a politician wants a vote
I don't want much of nothin at all but I will take another toke

Long Haired Country Boy - The Charlie Daniels Band



I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used

Pink Floyd- Dogs

It's hard to love a man who's legs are bent and paralyzed
With the wants and the needs of a woman your age, Ruby I realize
But it won't be long I've heard them say until I'm not around




And for this one, if you say Kenny Rogers, I will ring your jaws.

It's been covered by so many artists though...and his version is probably the best known. The song was written in the 60's though and so were the first covers of the song done in the late 60s.

You'll wake up one morning, you start to feel good
The sun in the blue sky looks like it should
'Cause time is a healer, it's strange but it's true
So keep looking forward, the sun will come through

Mel Tillis, the writer of the song recorded it in 1975. His version is the best IMO. I have absolutely no respect for Kenny Rogers in the music business.

The percentage you're paying is too high priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams

You know you can't hold me forever
I didn't sign up with you
I'm not a present for your friends to open
This boy's too young to be singing the blues

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - Elton John

Breathed the air before
Hear the thunder roar
Never knew it was for me
Always looking down
Lost and never found
Eyes that look but not to see

A Light in the Black - Rainbow...............good tune Sooner



I was runnin' kinda lonely at the city place
I waited for an hour, I never saw her face
Crazy ladies that wait and slide around like a snake
I just can't take anymore, I'm going in through the door

Do you still do the twist
Do you find you remember things that well

Bump before yoga buries it. It's a cool thread, but I had to look this one up. Somebody should know it. I should have known it.
