    We got fifteen dollars and a can of STP
    A big ol' jar of cashew nuts and a Japanese TV
    Feelin' we had pulled the biggest heist of our career
    We're wanted men, we'll strike again
    But first let's have a beer

    And now I wish I was somewhere other than here
    Down in some honky tonk, sippin' on a beer
    Yes I wish I was somewhere other than here
    Because that great fillin' station holdup
    Cost me two good years.

    When he was young youd not find him doing well in school,
    His mind would turn unto the waters.
    Always the focus of adolescent ridicule,
    He has no time for farmers daughters.
    Alienated from the clique society,
    A lonely boy finds peace in fishing.
    His mother says john this is not the way lifes supposed to be.
    Dont you see the life that you are missing?
    And he says...
    When I grow up I want to be,
    One of the harvesters of the sea.
    I think before my days are done,
    I want to be a fisherman.

    Now years gone by we find man that rules the sea.
    He sets out on a dark may morning .
    To bring his catch back to this small community.
    He doesnt see the danger dawning.
    Four hours up, oh the ocean swelled and swelled,
    The fog rolled in it started raining.
    The starboard bow. oh my God were going down!
    The do not hear his frantic mayday.
    And he says
    When I grow up I want to be,
    One of the harvesters of the sea.
    I think before my days are done,
    I want to be a fisherman.
    Ill live and die a fisherman.
    Calling john the fisherman.

    here is another old one

    You shouldve seen by the look in my eyes, baby
    There was somethin missin
    You shouldve known by the tone of my voice, maybe
    But you didnt listen
    You played dead
    But you never bled
    Instead you lay still in the grass
    All coiled up and hissin

    And though I know all about those men
    Still I dont remember
    Cause it was us baby, way before then
    And were still together
    And I meant, every word I said
    When I said that I love you I meant
    That I love you forever

    And Im gonna keep on lovin you
    Cause its the only thing I wanna do
    I dont wanna sleep
    I just wanna keep on lovin you

    (solo)

    And I meant every word I said
    When I said that I love you I meant
    That I love you forever

    Here's one from almost 40 years ago:

    Hey fellas, have you heard the news?
    You know that Annie's back in town?
    It wont take long just watch and see
    How the fellas lay their money down.
    Her style is new but the face is the same
    As it was so long ago,
    But from her eyes, a different smile
    Like that of one who knows.
    Well, its been ten years and maybe more
    Since I first set eyes on you;
    The best years of my life gone by,
    Here I am alone and blue.
    Some people cry and some people die
    By the wicked ways of love;
    But Ill just keep on rollin' along
    With the grace of the lord above.
    People talkin' all around bout the way you left me flat,
    I dont care what the people say, I know where their jive is at.
    One thing I do have on my mind, if you can clarify please do,
    Its the way you call me by another guys name when I try to make love to you!
    I try to make love but it ain't no use.
    Give it to me, give it!
    (guitar solo)
    Work so hard I couldn't unwind,
    Get some money saved;
    Abuse my love a thousand times,
    However hard I tried.

    "I know where their jive is at." Wow, that phrase is so 60's. :p

    So the grapes can grow and they can make more wine
    And I'm sitting in a honky in Chicago
    With a broken heart and a woman on my mind.

    I'll ask the man behind the bar for the jukebox
    And the music takes me back to Tennessee
    And when they ask who's the fool in the corner, crying

    The lunatic is on the grass
    The lunatic is on the grass
    Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs
    Got to keep the loonies on the path

    The lunatic is in the hall
    The lunatics are in my hall
    The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
    And every day the paper boy brings more

    And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
    And if there is no room upon the hill
    And if your head explodes with dark forbodings too
    Ill see you on the dark side of the moon

    The lunatic is in my head
    The lunatic is in my head
    You raise the blade, you make the change
    You re-arrange me till Im sane
    You lock the door
    And throw away the key
    Theres someone in my head but its not me.

    And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
    You shout and no one seems to hear
    And if the band youre in starts playing different tunes
    Ill see you on the dark side of the moon

    Not long ago in a one-horse town
    Down south of Santa Fe,
    A one-eyed half-breed amputee
    Sat thinkin' of the way
    He'd settle the score with that runnin' sore
    Who had left him the way he is.
    One-armed, half-blind and crippled in his mind
    And he, that amputee, could not forgive.

    He swore to kill the stranger
    For this one bad thing he'd done.
    For three long years he'd practiced
    Until he could use the gun.
    Heart of stone, he lived alone
    And he lived on beans and eggs.
    Pigs could tell what time it was
    By the gravy running down his legs.

    Going out of my mind these days,
    Like I'm walkin' round in a haze.
    I can't think straight, I can't concentrate.
    And I need a shave.

    I go to work and I look tired.
    The boss man says: "Son, you're gonna get fired."
    This ain't your style, and from behind my coffee cup,

    And she left for (pause) umm, who knows where ...
    And she left, left we wonderin what this life's all about, Ya Yaaa

    This tune is an eighties song.They were a Canadian band and the song was controversial because of the racy lyrics.

    "Teenage Brando's stop her in the halls,
    They tease her with cat calls,
    She's a combination Anita Ekbert,
    Mimi Van Jorne."

    "She drives a candy pink Cadillac,
    If I don't get her soon,I'll have a heart attack,
    When she passes me a look,
    I want to burn my books,give up high school."

    Well, I had just got out of the county prison
    Doing 90 days for non-support.
    Tried to find me an executive position
    But no matter how smooth I talked
    They wouldn't listen to the fact
    That I was a genius,
    The man said, 'We got all that we can use.'

    Well I should be sittin'
    In an air conditioned office
    In a swivel chair
    Talking some trash to the secretary
    Saying, 'Hey now mama, come on over here."
    But instead I stuck just rubbing these fenders with a rag
    And walking home in soggy ol' shoes

    Tell me you like it
    Tell me you like it

    You say you've found yourself a new sound
    The shit's loaded and ready to go
    A bit too much just like the old sound
    Already heard it for the hundredth time
    One hundred more, all have the same sound
    Running around with all the sheep that you know
    "It's so sublime, they're breaking new ground"
    "They're sure to have another hit this time"

    Come on
    Can't you just leave it alone?
    It doesn't have any soul
    Just find a thing of your own
    And stop pretending to know

    [Chorus:]
    As the countless numbers hunger for worldwide renown
    All the pimping sons of plunder will roll up their sleeves
    All searching for the answers they don't even care to know
    Give it to me
    Give it to me
    You like it?

    I'm still surrounded by the "new sound"
    I've had enough and I'm ready to go
    A strangle-hold throughout the world now
    The new obsession will fade in time
    A thin reminder of the past now
    All convoluted hardly ready to go
    Their whines and moans will never last now
    I think you've given us our fill this time

    Come on
    Can't you just leave it alone?
    It doesn't have any soul
    Just find a thing of your own
    And stop pretending to know

    [Chorus]

    [Bridge:]
    As it's blown apart, hundreds thrown away
    Makes me question just what I believe
    Brothers torn apart, mindless drones enslaved
    Makes me search for an answer
    I don't want to know
    It's like a plague from below
    Killing all that I know
    One hundred voices the same
    Drench their sorrow in flame

    As the countless numbers hunger for worldwide renown
    All the pimping sons of plunder will roll up their sleeves
    All searching for the answers they don't even care to know
    Give it to me
    Give it to me
    As the countless numbers hunger for worldwide renown
    All the pimping sons of plunder will roll up their sleeves
    All searching for the answers they don't even care to know
    Give it to me
    Give it to me
    You like it?
    Tell me you like it
    Tell me you like it
    Tell me you like it

    I think this one is from 1962:


    Invisible tears in my eyes

    Incredible pain in my heart

    Indestructible memories are passing in review

    Impossible though things may get,

    Improbable I will forget,

    Indelible memories of sweet lovable you

    You're back again so I'll let you in

    Altough I'm only stealing pictures from the past

    These arms are not real but somehow I feel

    If I'll just close my eyes then maybe it will last

    Invisible tears in my eyes...

    Indelible memories of sweet lovable you.


    Hmmm, I didn't expect to find so many spelling errors on a web page. :o

    Hi my name is Bob and I work at my job
    I make forty-some dollars a day
    I used to be the man in my hometown
    'til I started to lose my way
    It all goes back to when I dropped out at school
    Having fun, I was living the life
    But now I got a problem with that little white rock
    See I can put down the pipe

    Alright, what song is this?
