Tuco Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 "I got your name from a friend of a friend Who said he used to work with you Do you remember the all-night preacher from Stereo-92?" I said, "Could you relate to our quarter-track tape? You know the band performs in the nude" He said, "Uh-uh, don't call us, we'll call you" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastaJoe Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Billy Ray was the preacher's son And when his daddy would visit he'd come along When they gathered 'round and started talkin' That's when Billy would take me walkin' Out through the back yard we'd go walkin' Then he'd look into my eyes Lord knows, to my surprise The only one who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes, he was, he was, ooh, yes, he was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Everybody's talkin' at me I don't hear a word they're sayin' Only the echoes of my mind People stoppin', starin' I can't see their faces Only the shadows of their eyes  I'm goin' where the sun keeps shinin' Through the pourin' rain Goin' where the weather suits my clothes Bankin' off of the northeast winds Sailin' on summer breeze And skippin' over the ocean like a stone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppy Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Once upon a time you dressed so fine Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you? People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall' You thought they were all kidding you You used to laugh about Everybody that was hanging out Now you don't talk so loud Now you don't seem so proud About having to be scrounging your next meal How does it feel, how does it feel? To be without a home Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muppy Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Well, I'm a-runnin' down the road tryna loosen my load I've got seven women on my mind Four that wanna own me, two that wanna stone me One says she's a friend of mine Take it easy, take it easy Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy Lighten up while you still can Don't even try to understand Just find a place to make your stand Take it easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 I pulled in to Nazareth Was feeling 'bout half past dead I just need someplace Where I can lay my head "Hey, mister, can you tell me Where a man might find a bed?" He just grinned and shook my hand "No" was all he said Take a load off, Fanny Take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny And (And, and) You put the load right on me (You put the load right on me) Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppy Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields '65, I was 17 and running up 101 I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on Running on (running on empty) Running on (running blind) Running on (running into the sun) But I'm running behind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastaJoe Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 See the curtains hangin' in the window, in the evenin' on a Friday night. A little light a-shinin'thru the window, lets me know everything's alright.

muppy Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom, let it be And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me Speaking words of wisdom, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Things Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 So long honey, babe Where I'm bound, I can't tell Goodbye's too good a word, babe So I'll just say, "Fare thee well" I ain't a-saying you treated me unkind You could've done better but I don't mind You just kinda wasted my precious time But don't think twice, it's all right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Going to plant a weeping willow On the banks green edge it will grow, grow, grow Sing a lullaby beside the water Lovers come and go, the river roll, roll, roll  Fare you well, fare you well I love you more than words can tell Listen to the river sing sweet songs To rock my soul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Things Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Well now if I ever live to be an old man I'm gonna sail down to Martinique I'm gonna buy me a sweat-stained Bogart suit And an African parakeet And then I'll sit him on my shoulder And open up my trusty old mind I gonna teach him how to cuss, teach him how to fuss And pull the cork out of a bottle of wine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppy Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 If a man could be two places at one time I'd be with you Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way  If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die I'd spend the end with you And when the world was through Then one by one the stars would all go out Then you and I would simply fly away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastaJoe Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Spread your tiny wings and fly away And take the snow back with you Where it came from on that day The one I love forever is untrue And if I could, you know that I would Fly away with you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Said I hope that we get the promise, ladies And make me get off Take it from girls with our imagination So we can get off  Call me up at your place, I can love you crazy In the heat you will understand Danger and excitement, that's what makes a lady Find out what she wants in a man  To get off, to get off, to get off, to get off To get off, to get off, to get off, to get, get off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
