Joe Ferguson forever Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 In the mountains the sun sets up in ribbons so high, it's like I don't never wanna get old... don't ever wanna die. We been seein' steady rain, 'bout to drive us all insane, nearly lost a few head up in the pines. At night, when some of the boys get to talking up their girls back home, you know I tell 'em there ain't none as fine as mine. I can hear old Chapman sayin' come morning we'll break the range, be pushin' hard now for the plains. I close my eyes and I can see you... I close my eyes and I can feel you here. God willin' an the creek don't rise, I'll be home again before this time next year. Though I fear this fever won't break... -All my love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 You know the man who told me about it on the bus, As it went up the hill out of Scranton, Pennsylvania, He shrugged his shoulders, he shook his head, And he said (and this is exactly what he said) "Boy that sure must've been something. Just imagine thirty thousand pounds of bananas. Yes, there were thirty thousand pounds of mashed bananas. Of bananas. Just bananas. Thirty thousand pounds. Of Bananas. not no driver now. Just bananas!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastaJoe Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 There's a fruit store on our street It's run by a Greek. And he keeps good things to eat But you should hear him speak! When you ask him anything, he never answers "no". He just "yes"es you to death, and as he takes your dough He tells you "Yes, we have no bananas We have-a no bananas today.“ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoTom Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 "Take me to another place", she said "Take me to another time Run with me across the oceans Float me on a silver cloud" If I could I would, but I don't know how If I could I would, but I don't know how If I could I would and I'd take you now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happened on Moosic St hill in Scranton, Pa the driver was killed several people were injured I work on the bottom of the hill and there have several near misses with cars in the 10 years I've been there Theres a line in the song that says something about a sign at the top of the hill that says "shift to low gear...." Now, trucks over a certain weight are forbidden to go down that hill." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muppy Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 So I was the one with all the glory While you were the one with all the strength A beautiful face without a name for so long A beautiful smile to hide the pain Did you ever know that you're my hero And everything I would like to be? I can fly higher than an eagle For you are the wind beneath my wings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwater10 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 How many roads must a man walk down Before you call him a man? How many seas must a white dove sail Before she sleeps in the sand? Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly Before they're forever banned? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastaJoe Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 From the North to the South, Ebudæ into Khartoum From the deep sea of Clouds to the island of the moon Carry me on the waves to the lands I've never been Carry me on the waves to the lands I've never seen We can sail, we can sail with the Orinoco Flow We can sail, we can sail (Sail away, sail away, sail away) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill from NYC Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine. I got a love, and I know that it's all mine. Oh. Do what you want, but you're never gonna break me. Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me. No. Take me away: A secret place. A sweet escape: Take me away. Take me away: to better days. Take me away: A higher place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppy Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Think about it, there must be higher love Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above Without it, life is a wasted time Look inside your heart, I'll look inside mine Things look so bad everywhere In this whole world, what is fair? We walk blind and we try to see Falling behind in what could be Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Where's that higher love I keep thinking of? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwater10 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 So you live from day to day And you dream about tomorrow And the hours go by like minutes And the shadows come to stay So you take a little something to make them go away And I could have done so many things, baby If I could only stop my mind From wondering what I left behind And from worrying about this wasted time The love has come and gone The years keep rushing on I remember what you told me Before you went out on your own Sometimes to keep it together You got to leave it alone So you can get on with your search, baby And I can get on with mine Maybe someday we will find That it wasn't really wasted time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoTom Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 It's survival in the city When you live from day to day City streets don't have much pity When you're down, that's where you'll stay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
