Guess the Lyrics

[tmac396]

That's "I'm Into Something Good" by Herman's Hermits. It was originally recorded by Earl-Jean and was written by the great team of Gerry Goffin and Carol King. Great song!

Okay...try these. A little more obscure perhaps...


You think that you're such a smart girl
And I'll believe what you say
But who do you think you are girl
To lead me on this way, hey

[jodlyn]

I'm not sure if I'm right either, but is this "Lies" by the Knickerbockers? I remember being at a cousin's house and watching this show called, "Where the Action Is" with Dick Clark. I remember also thinking they sounded just like the Beatles.

If I'm right, then here's my song lyrics. Try this one!

I got the same old friends
They got the same old sins
I tell the same old jokes
Give the same old grins

[fiona]

Dusty Springfield did it too.

Here's more...

I find me a place in a box car,
So I take my guitar to pass some time
Late at night when it's hard to rest
I hold your picture to my chest and I feel fine

[tmac396]

That's "A Rainy Night in Georgia" by Brook Benton!

Try these...

I lost at love before
Got mad and closed the door
But you said "Try, just once more"

[PapaMouse]

Try these:

With your nose pressed to the window,
Life is just a mirror of your mind.
You can find much more to get into.
Make up your mind, baby, now is the time.

Time to live life like a lover.
Time to keep time from keepin' you down.
Time to get it all together.

[jodlyn]

I haven't heard this song in ages. Thanks for posting it, Papa! It's good to see you!

Now for mine. It's an easy one!

I finally got to talk to you
And I told you just exactly how I felt
Then I held you close to me and kissed you
And my heart began to melt

[PapaMouse]

Hiya, Jody .

Try these lyrics on for size:

I can't believe that this is the girl next door.
That funny little face isn't funny no more.
Sixteen and oh what a dream!
Ain't it strange how she changed...

[fiona]

I like Neil.

Try these easy ones...

Well there's technicolor and cinemascope
A cast out of Hollywood
And the popcorn from the candy stand
Makes it all seem twice as good

[jodlyn]

They're one of my very favorite groups! I once saw them in concert, and they sound as good as they do on their albums.

Try this one:

Is it too much to ask
I want a comfortable bed that won't hurt my back
Food to fill me up
And warm clothes and all that stuff

[fiona]

They're one of my very favorite groups! I once saw them in concert, and they sound as good as they do on their albums.

I saw them too and you're very right about them sounding as good live.

Not so sure about those lyrics though. I'll need to think on them.

[tmac396]

Jody, your song is "Passionate Kisses" by Mary Chapin-Carpenter, who I LOVE!

Okay, gang. Try these...

I've got your memory, or has it got me?
I really don't know, but I know it won't let me be.
I've got your class ring that proved you cared,
And it still looks the same as when you gave it, dear.
The only thing different,
The only thing new ~

[jodlyn]

Wonderful song by a gifted singer. I've always loved Patsy Cline.

Try this one:

Green September burned to October brown,
Bare November led to December's frozen ground.
The seasons stumbled 'round
our drifting lives are bound

[fiona]

Sad song.

Try these ones...

You can bend but never break me
'cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul

[jodlyn]

Good song, Fee and so true!

Sad song.

*Sigh* I'm sorry! I felt sad for a while, but things have a way of working out even when we don't think so.

Try this recent country hit:

Yeah, Yeah
What you got if you ain't got love
the kind that you just want to give away
its okay to open up
go ahead and let the light shine through
I know it's hard on a rainy day
you want to shut the world out and just be left alone
but don't run out on your faith

[fiona]

Try these ones...

You didn't run, you didn't lie
You knew I wanted just to hold you
And had you gone you knew in time we'd meet again
For I had told you
