the song game

[JB]

surrender cheap trick

how bout this one,
dynamo sat at the edge of the bed,
with her lips jus a twitchin' and her face gone red

[Bo Dale James Jr.]

Got me! I even went text searching for that lyric!
So, who and what is it?

[JB]

Frank Zappa,
dinah-moe hum

I couldnt say where shes comin from,
But I just met a lady named dinah-moe humm

[Bo Dale James Jr.]

Zappas' music was always alittle too far out there for my "refined" taste..
Yeah right...OK

I'm not going to do lyrics on this one..
The name of the song is:
Don't Misunderstand Me...Name the band...and their roots

[pig n jig]

Bo Dale , Is it Please don't let me be misunderstood ? If it is Eric Burdon sang it.He was with the Animals and then he was with War, besides doing albums under his own name.Spill the wine is one of my favorites he did as well as House of the rising sun. P N J

Here is one for you.

...Please come to Denver with the snowfall
We'll move up in the mountains where we can't be found
and throw I love you echos down the canyon
and lie awake at night until they come back around
Please come to Denver, she said no
would you come home to me.......

[pig n jig]

She was black as the night
Louie was whiter than white
Danger, danger when you taste brown sugar
Louie fell in love overnight
Nothing bad, it was good
Louie had the best girl he could
When she took him home
To meet her mama and papa
Louie knew just where he stood
Louie Louie Louie, Louie Louie Louie Lou I
Louie Louie Louie, Louie Louie you're gonna cry
There he stood in the night
Knowing what's wrong from what's right
He took her home to meet his mama and papa
Man, he had a terrible fright.
Louie nearly caused a scene
Wishin' it was all a bad dream
Ain't no diff'erence between black and white,
Brothers, you know what I mean
Louie Louie Louie.......

[pig n jig]

Well I don't know why I came here tonight
I got a feelin something anit right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
and I'm wondering how I will get the stairs
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right....

Brother Louie was the Stories. I didn't figure anyone would get the Dave Loggins song, but you did.Van Morrison is another favorite artist of mine. His real name is George Ivan Morrison. P N J

[Bo Dale James Jr.]

Eric Burdon is great I like Spill the wine too../
Here is a Hint:
The band came from Skynnrd

[Bo Dale James Jr.]

Todd Rungren..I don't wanna work..Todd's good

[Bo Dale James Jr.]

Try this...
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Down to New Orleans
You know I love you so
Baby please don't go

[Bo Dale James Jr.]

And l will stroll the merry way
And jump the hedges first
And l will drink the clear
Clean water for to quench my thirst
And I shall watch the ferry-boats
And they'll get high
On a bluer ocean
Against tomorrow's sky
And I will never grow so old again
And I will walk and talk
In gardens all wet with rain

[Bo Dale James Jr.]

Don't wannna discuss it
Think it's time for a change
You may get disgusted
Start thinkin' that I'm strange

In that case I'll go underground
Get some heavy rest
Never have to worry
About what is worst or what is best
(Get it)

[flbassman]

First one is Van Morrison, think it's called please don't go...


I will stand in the rain on a corner, I'll watch the people go chumbling downtown...

fool in the rain - led zeppelin

[Bo Dale James Jr.]

Oh, The Stories...I don't know where I got Mothers...
Van Morrison is right on all three..
How about...
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered..
What's been goin' on now that you've been gonee

[pig n jig]

Sunshine came softly through my window today
Coulda tripped out easy, but I've changed my ways
It'll take time, I know it, but in a while
You're gonna be mine, I know it, we'll do it in style
because I've made my mind up you're going to be mine
I'll tell you right now
Any trick in the book now, baby, all that I can find
Superman or Green Lantern ain't got nothin' on me
I can make like a turtle and dive for pearls in the sea
you can just sit there thinkin' on your velvet throne
Yes, about all the rainbows you can have for your own.....

[pig n jig]

Bo, That song is driving me crazy, trying to think of it.I've heard it thousands of times.I want to say Marvin Gaye. I think he was with the Temptations , but am not exactly sure.

I like the older music.P N J

[Bo Dale James Jr.]

Here's one...
Caught between the longing for love
And the struggle for the legal tender
Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring
And the junk man pounds his fender
Where the veterans dream of the fight
Fast asleep at the traffic light
And the children solemnly wait
For the ice cream vendor
Out into the cool of the evening
Strolls the Pretender
He knows that all his hopes and dreams
Begin and end there
