Lets try something a little upbeat

[NHAnn]

yep doxydog..........

but yours is bugging me...if I could think of the tune it would come to me............
I used to think it was so pathetic.......the little girl and all..........
something about wanting him to come home and she'd be good or something??????????

 

[Pin Wizard]

All right you guys...I've had "Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves" running through my mind since this afternoon. It's NOT helping me study for 2 tests and type 2 papers!!!

 

[fireplug]

I think we're stumped, how about a hint or somemore lines, PLEASE

Steve

 

[Lars624]

Sorry Pin Wizard, Gypsies, Tramps & Thieves was my post. Hope you got your work done!

 

[doxdogy]

Okay here are some more lines:

Now it broke my heart to tell my little daughter
That her daddy had to run to catch a train
She had no way of knowin' I was leavin' home for good
I turned around and there she was again
As she said to me

 

[browneyes]

That has got to be a Cat Stevens song. But I'm not sure.

 

[NHAnn]

still can't get it.......the chorus must be the title.......maybe more folk or country than Car Stevens? I just remember I always thought it was pathetically mushy........the daughter crying "Daddy come back" or something??

 

[doxdogy]

Yes, the chorus is the title. Not Cat Stevens and it is a mushy song. Even the singer is considered mushy. Here are parts of the chorus:

Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run

 

[Catzeyes]

Daddy don't you walk so fast?

 

[doxdogy]

Catzeyes:

That is the correct.

 

[Catzeyes]

Ok here is another one

Mortgage people you crawl to your homes
Your security lies in your bed of white foam
You act concerned but then why turn away
When a lady was raped on your doorstep today
Well your blacks are cryin' but your back is still turned
And your freaks are dyin' but your back is still turned
You better stop your hidin or your country will burn
The time has come for you my friend
To all this ugliness we must put an end
Before we leave we must make a stand, oh yeah......

Golden Country by REO Speedwagon

I close my eyes
only for a moment
and the moments gone
All my dreams
pass before my eyes
A curiosisty...........

70's


I needed the shelter of someone's arms & there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups & downs & there you were

 

[Saffron]

How Sweet it is to be Loved by You by James Taylor

Here's a 70's song:

I can see why you think you belong to me
I never tried to make you think
or let you see one thing for yourself
Baby can you see
But now your off with someone else and I'm alone
You see I thought that I might keep you for my own
And it takes to long to see ...

Aimie by Pure Prarie League


I rode in from town today
in my mind I said
Lord I'd love to stay
Sometnig in me said
Boy move on
Don't know what it is
the good Lord bred
it in my bones

Searchin' For a Rainbow ?

 

[fireplug]

That right catzeyes !!

Your turn !

Steve

 

[Catzeyes]

Where are you going now my love?
Where will you be tomorrow?
Will you bring me happiness?
Will you bring me sorrow?
Oh, the questions of a thousand dreams
What you do and what you see
Lover can you talk to me?

 

[Lars624]

I'm stumped Catzeyes, can you give a hint or some more lyrics?
