By popular demand I will no longer just sing to Dancer. You will all be the object of my lounge act. Like it or like it.
Elizabeth<p>Spending all my nights, all my money going out on the town
Doing anything just to get you off my mind
But when the morning comes, I'm right back where I started again
Trying to forget you is just a waste of time
Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you
All day long, wearing a mask of false bravado
Trying to keep up a smile that hides a tear
But as the sun goes down, I get that empty feeling again
How I wish to God that you were here
Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you
Now that I put it all together
Give me the chance to make you see
Have you used up all the love in your heart
Is there nothing left for me?
Is there nothing left for me?
Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you
I was wrong, and I just can't live
Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you
Baby come back

JTW<p>I have to be honest and say I feel a little jealous that I am not the sole object of your seranades anymore, but I am happy to share you and so glad you are not going to leave us on such a 'high note' [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img] <p>Thank you so much for the encouragement...I've been so blessed and havent laughed so much in a while...yes, your singing is definately only for the tone deaf...but we will persevere with you if we have to... [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img] <p>Looking forward to your next hit...<p>Baby come back
Please hurry
Why dont you come back
Please hurry
Come back and stay for good this time...
We want you back
We want you back!!!<p>Dancer
Ps - I'm not real good with music, can you leave a hint as to the tune/who sings?

Forgot to add, just read the other thread...is it going to rest for awhile? Are we over? Are we through? Is this the end of the line? Austa la vista babear?<p>I'm 30. So I guess that makes me an 80's chick.<p>I love the Chris Cagle...perfect probably for most people here on MB eh! Youre a champion [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img] <p>If I dont know the tune, I still love the poetry, I love poetry!<p>Chow

Much better than the soundtrack to "The Sound of Music"....<p>
[img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif" border="0[/img]

Nice tune, Lizzy!<p>Thanks ....
Jo

Wow, you carry a pretty good tune!!! <p>Me? My lyrics never sound good even in writing! LOL!!! [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img] <p>L.

Hall & Oates? If not.......who did that tune?<p>Call me curious, George!

Thanks JTW! Do you take requests??
BH

I never in my wildest dreams would be so popular!<p>I'm running to church - will be back later.<p>I do take requests, it will never be over between dancer and I, and last but not least - I love Sound of Music!<p>Back w. the particulars on that song later.<p>Elizabeth

Back from church, we cut out early. The little one can only take so much.<p>The original artist is No Mercy. It is a 70's hit, and I think Hall and Oates did do a cover of it at one time. <p>The catchy part of it that might jog your memory for the tune is
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you <p>I'll make sure to include the artist (if I remember) and I promise they won't all be lost love songs.<p>Elizabeth

This one always makes me laugh. Shaggy.<p>I only join in on the "it wasn't me" parts.<p>(knocking)
RikRok: yo man
Shaggy: yo
RikRok: open up man
Shaggy: what do you want man?
RikRok: my girl just caught me
Shaggy: you let her catch you?
RikRok: I don't know how I let this happen
Shaggy: with who?
RikRok: the girl next door, you know?
Shaggy: man...
RikRok: I don't know what to do
Shaggy: say it wasn't you
RikRok: alright... <p>chorus 1 (RikRok)
honey came in and she caught me red-handed
creeping with the girl next door
picture this we were both butt-naked
banging on the bathroom floor <p>how could I forget that I had given her an extra key
all this time she was standing there she never took her eyes off me <p>(Shaggy)
How you can grant the woman access to your villa
Just a sign of weakness all left on your pilla
You better watch your back before she turn into a killah
Lets review the situation that your caught up inna
To be a true player you have to know how to play
If she say you're not, convince her say you're gay
Never admit to a word when she say
And claim you tell her baby no way <p>chorus 2
RikRok: but she caught me on the counter
Shaggy: it wasn't me
RikRok: saw me banging on the sofa
Shaggy: it wasn't me
RikRok: I even had her in the shower
Shaggy: it wasn't me
RikRok: she even caught me on camera
Shaggy: it wasn't me
RikRok: she saw the marks on my shoulder
Shaggy: it wasn't me
RikRok: heard the words that I told her
Shaggy: it wasn't me
RikRok: heard the screams getting louder
Shaggy: it wasn't me
RikRok: she stayed until it was over <p>(chorus 1) <p>I had tried to keep her from what she was about to see
why should she believe me when I told her it wasn't me <p>(Shaggy)
make sure she knows it's not you and lead her on da right prefix
whenever you should see her make da giggolo flex
as funny as it be by you, it not that complex
seein is believin so you better change your specs
you know she not gonna be worrying bout things from the past
hardly recollecting and then she'll go to noontime mass
Rik-boy your answer: go over there
but if she pack a gun you know you better run fast <p>(chorus 2)
(chorus 1) <p>how could I forget that I had given her an extra key
all this time she was standing there she never took her eyes off me <p>gonna tell her that I'm sorry for the pain that I've caused
I've been listenin' to your reasonin' it makes no sense at all
we should tell her that I'm sorry for the pain that I've caused
you may think that you're a player but you're completely lost <p>(chorus 1)

Liz, you there? I need you desperately to sing to me...feelin down, H told me I abuse him and everything's feelin like my fault...says he can have his friends around (her and her H) whenever he wants. I'm down, please sing me a tune....<p>where are you???<p>Dancer

Poor thing.<p>First tune that comes to mind. No idea who did it, but it's an old one for sure.<p>Trailer for sale or rent
rooms to let 50 cents
no phone, no food, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettes
well it's 2 hours of pushin a broom
buys an 8 by 12 full bedroom
I'm a man of means by no means
king of the road.<p>Tell me if you need Eidelweiss. It always works for my babies.

JTW<p>That song, as unrelated as you could possibly get, just fits the spot. How doooooooooo you do it? Amazing.<p>A new day awaits, possibilities are endless....<p>Me<p>[ March 25, 2002: Message edited by: Dancer ]</p>

This old engine

Leaves Central Station
at a quarter to nine
Hits River Junction
at seventeen to
at a quarter to ten
you know it's trav'lin again <p>Drivin' that train
High on cocaine
Casey Jones you better
watch your speed
Trouble ahead
Trouble behind
and you know that notion
just crossed my mind <p>
Trouble ahead
The Lady in Red
Take my advice
you be better off dead
Switchman sleepin
Train hundred and two
is on the wrong track and
headed for you <p>
Drivin' that train
High on cocaine
Casey Jones you better
watch your speed
Trouble ahead
Trouble behind
and you know that notion
just crossed my mind <p>
Trouble with you is
The trouble with me
Got two good eyes
but we still don't see
Come round the bend
You know it's the end
The fireman screams and
The engine just gleams <p>Drivin' that train
High on cocaine
Casey Jones you better
watch your speed
Trouble ahead
Trouble behind
and you know that notion
just crossed my mind <p>A little tune by the Dead. Had an experience earlier this evening that reminded me of college. If you folks only knew me back then!<p>Afroman, Because I Got High = edited for content<p>I was gonna clean my room until I got high
I was gonna get up and find the broom but then I got high
My room is still messed up and I know why(why man)<p>Chorus:
Because I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high<p>I was gonna go to class before I got high
I could've cheated and I could've passed but I got high
I'm takin it next semester and I know why(hey hey)<p>chorus<p>I was gonna go to work but then I got high
I juss got a new promotion but I got high
Now I'm sellin dope and I know why(hey hey)<p>chorus<p>I was gonna go to court before I got high
I was gonna pay my child support but then I got high(no you wasn't)
They took my whole paycheck and I know why(why man)<p>chorus<p>I was gonna pay my car and note until I got high
I wasn't gonna gamble on the boat but then I got high
Now the tow trucks pullin away and I know why(why man)<p>chorus<p>I messed up my entire life because I got high
I lost my kids and wife because I got high
Now I'm sleepin on the side walk and I know why
(yeah yeah)<p>chorus<p>Ima stop singing this song because I'm high(yeah he is)
I'm singing this whole thing wrong because I'm high(uh huh)
And if I don't sell one copy, I'll know why(ha ha ha)<p>Cause I'm high
Cause I'm high
Cause I'm high<p>And no, in case anyone wonders, I didn't smoke any wacky weed or anything else like that. But I did spend some time talkin bout the old days...<p>[ March 26, 2002: Message edited by: justthewife ]</p>

Goodbye Earl, Dixie Chicks.<p>Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends
All through their high school days
Both members of the 4H Club
Both active in the FFA
After graduation Mary Anne went out lookin'
for a bright new world
Wanda looked all around this town
and all she found was Earl<p>Well it wasn't two weeks
after she got married that
Wanda started gettin' abused
She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses
And make-up to cover a bruise
Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce
She let the law take it from there
But Earl walked right through that restraining order
And put her in intensive care<p>Right away Mary Anne flew in from Atalnta
On a red eye midnight flight
She held Wanda's hand as they
worked out a plan
And it didn't take long to decided<p>That Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl
Those black-eyed peas
They tasted all right to me Earl
You're feeling weak
Why don't you lay down
and sleep Earl
Ain't it dark
Wrapped up in that tarp Earl<p>The cops came to bring Earl in
They searched the house
high and low
Then they tipped their hats
and said "Thank You ladies
if you hear from him let us know"<p>Well the weeks went by and
Spring turned to Summer
And Summer faded into Fall
And it turns out he was a missing person
who nobody missed al all<p>So the girls bouth some land
and a roadside stand
Out on Highway 109
They sell Tennessee ham
and strawberry jame
And they don't
lose any sleep at night 'cause<p>Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl
We need a break
Let's go out to the lake Earl
We'll pack a lunch
And stuff you in the trunk Earl
Well is that all right
Good Let's go for a ride
Earl hey

Hey Liz,<p>Never heard the words before...had me captivated. Thelma and Louise...

Thanks Liz,
I just love reading (and singing as I read) these songs! How do you remember all of the words???
Do you know the words to a Jewell song that has the line "...out of the corner of my eye..was that you passing me by" and there is a chorus in it that says "sweet sorrow is the goal tomorrow" (or something like that). If there is enough info for you to know the song, I will ask my daughter if she knows the title. thanks Liz,
BH

Is this one okay? It caught my ear a couple days ago:<p>SPECIAL by Garbage<p>I'm living without you
I know all about you
I have run you down into the ground
Spread disease about you over town
I used to adore you
I couldn't control you
There was nothing that I wouldn't do
To keep myself around and close to you<p>Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know
But I've run out of patience
I couldn't care less
I....
I....
Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?<p>I thought you were special
I thought you should know
I used to amuse you
I knew that I'd lose you
Now you're here and begging for a chance
But there's no way in hell I'd take you back<p>Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know<p>But I've run out of patience
I've run out of comments
I'm tired of the violence
I couldn't care less<p>I'm looking for a new (4x)
We were the talk of the town (4x)
I thought you were special (4x)
