Re: James Taylor?

Post by jodlyn »

I believe it's Hey Mister..that's Me Up on the Jukebox if I'm not mistaken.

If that's right, then here's more lyrics...

I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high
Just like a dragonfly

I'd fly above the trees
Over the seas in all degrees
To anywhere I please
I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way!

"Fly Away" by Lenny Kravitz

Post by fiona »

I really like Lenny. :D

Try these...

Gonna tell Aunt Mary 'bout Uncle John,
He claim he hates the music but he has a lotta fun.
I'm not going to let my history pull me down and hold me back, you see.

You stumped me for a bit though. I kept singing the words and going..."I know this, I know this"..Lol.

I love Lenny Kravitz also, Fee. This is my favorite from him.

Okay, next clue:

Winter nights we sang in tune
Played inside the months of moon
Never think of never
Let this spell last forever
I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way!

Good song!

That's "Magic Man" by Heart.

Now try these...

Oh it doesn't seem a year ago
To this very day
You said I'm sorry honey
If I don't change the pace
I can't face another day
Toolin' down the highway doing 79,
I'm a twin-pipe papa and I'm feeling fine...

Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding - Elton John

Post by dmsesquire »

Great song, tmac! :5170:

"I had a good friend in New York City.
He never called me by name, just 'Hillbilly'.
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land,
and his taught him to be a businessman.

"He used to send me pictures of the Broadway nights,
and I'd send him some homemade wine,
but he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife.
For forty-three dollars, my friend lost his life.

"I'd love to spit some Beechnut in that dude's eyes
and shoot him with my old 45."
Five out of four people have trouble with fractions.

Because I like the thread, but have no idea what this song is...
Lord, you have filled my cup so full,
How can I fear tomorrow?

Okay...

That song is "A Country Boy Can Survive" by Hank Jr. A good song that I haven't heard in a while.

Next...

Places I've known,
Things that I'm growin',
Don't taste the same without you.
I got myself in
The worst mess I've been
And I find myself startin' ta doubt you.
Toolin' down the highway doing 79,
I'm a twin-pipe papa and I'm feeling fine...

Re: Walk Away by Joe Walsh?

Post by jodlyn »

I haven't hear that one in a long time. Good song, Tmac...

Here's my clue:

"I've been tryin to get down
To the heart of the matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think its about forgiveness
Forgiveness"
I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way!

Umm, jodyangel?

Your clue contains the title. Doesn't it? The Heart of the Matter, by Don Henley. (Though I tend to think of it as having the title "You Don't Love Me Any More".)

Try this one:

Never seen the moonlight in your hair
Till now.
Never heard the sweet things you could say
Till now
Lord, you have filled my cup so full,
How can I fear tomorrow?

Re: You are so right, Papa..Lol..

Post by jodlyn »

I didn't realise the clue was in the lyrics...:)


I know yours. The Association's Greatest Hits was one of the very first albums I ever bought from Woolworth way back when. It's "No Fair At All". Beautiful song! :7207:

Try this one:

In a far-away land
On the tropic sea sand
If your hand's in my hand
I won't be blue


:7207: :wave:

What a great song, Jody!

That's "In the Misty Moonlight" by Jerry Wallace. A wonderful song I've dedicated to my beautiful wife many times.

Now...try THESE...

Though I smiled the tears inside were a-burning
I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
He was gone but still his words kept returning
What else was there for me to do but cry
Toolin' down the highway doing 79,
I'm a twin-pipe papa and I'm feeling fine...

Yay I got one!!

Post by fiona »

I was getting worried at myself. :P That's "His Latest Flame" by Elvis. :D

Try these ones:

Theres talk on the street, it sounds so familiar.
Great expectations, everybodys watching you.
People you meet they all seem to know you,
Even your old friends treat you like you're something new
I'm not going to let my history pull me down and hold me back, you see.

Well, I guess...

..."There's a New Kid in Town." Great Eagles tune, Fee.

Okay...try these...

Moving forward using all my breath
Making love to you was never second best
I saw the world thrashing all around your face
Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace


I LOVE this song!
Toolin' down the highway doing 79,

Melt with You by Modern English.

Great song, Tmac. :5170:

Here's one that has always been my favorite. I find myself humming it at least once or twice a week.

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way!

"In My Life" - The Beatles

Post by fiona »

I agree that it is one of their most wonderful songs. :D

Try these...

I looked out this morning and the sun was gone
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away
I'm not going to let my history pull me down and hold me back, you see.
