Song for Another Time - Old Dominion

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXB5HM_evHbYel4leyX6IrhYfjHlLCTDF
Right now we both know
We're Marina del Rey
Plane's gonna fly away
And you'll be on it
And by this time tomorrow
I'll be singin' Yesterday

The sunshine's gonna fade
And we can't stop it
So before we turn in to
I can't make you love me

Let's be Brown Eyed Girl, Sweet Caroline
Free fallin' small town Saturday night
Before you Lose that Lovin' Feelin'
Let's go Dancin' on the Ceilin'

Keep on livin' that teenage dream
Paradise City where the grass is green
Pretty soon I'll be so Lonesome I Could Cry
But that's a song for another time

For just for one more day
What do you say
Baby be my Pretty Woman
Because we know Sunday Morning's Coming Down
And let's take a drive, you and I, down some old country road
Talk about growin' old in one of those Pink Houses
Yeah we might be a Candle in the Wind
But let's pretend we're

Let's be Brown Eyed Girl, Sweet Caroline
Free fallin' small town Saturday night
Before you Lose that Lovin' Feelin'
Let's go Dancin' on the Ceilin'
Keep on livin' that teenage dream

Paradise City where the grass is green
Pretty soon I'll be so Lonesome I Could Cry
Pretty soon you will be always on my mind
That's a song for another time

Oh before we say I Will Always Love You
Let's be Brown Eyed Girl, Sweet Caroline
Free fallin' small town Saturday night
Before you Lose that Lovin' Feelin'
Let's go Dancin' on the Ceilin'

Keep on livin' that teenage dream
Paradise City where the grass is green
Pretty soon I'll be so Lonesome I Could Cry
But that's a song for another time

Ya that's a song for another time
(Brown-eyed Girl, Sweet Caroline)
Ya that's a song for another time
(Small Town Saturday Night)
That's a song for another time

Kid Rock - All Summer Long

While we were trying different things
And we were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whiskey out the bottle, not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long

90's Country - Walker Hayes

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXB5HM_evHbbAUkRAjkVPPiFYVajvDYrq
Strawberry wine on your lips got me amazed
How 'bout you let the sky, oh boy
Take you away?
Gimme that wink, I'ma give it right back
You know you like it, you love it
You want some more of that

You make me smile like I did
When we were radio kids
Catching that countdown on Sunday
All the way to one day
When it was

Do you love me?
If you do, check yes, please
Girl, you know you think my tractor's sexy
Got me spinning like a jukebox junkie
Making me feel like 90's country

You make me feel like 90's country

Shake it I dare you
Queen of my double wide trailer
Million songs I could list you
But I'm just gon' shut up and kiss you

You see that water tower?
Girl, we can dream on it
I'ma paint your name in John Deere green on it
I, I cross my heart,
I ain't no walk-away Joe
I'm gonna get you to the church on Cumberland Road

And you get sweeter with time
Just like that bottle of wine
Might be a little dust on it but
Won't it taste so fine?
Just like you

Do you love me?
If you do, check yes, please
Girl, you know you think my tractor's sexy
I'm sold to the lady in the front seat
Making me feel like 90's country

You make me feel like 90's country

Shake it I dare you
Queen of my double wide trailer
Million songs I could list you
But I'm just gon' shut up and kiss you

You make me feel like 90's country

You know you're beautiful
Don't act like you don't
Ain't settling for no burger
And no grape snow cone, not tonight

Do you love me?
If you do, check yes, please
Girl, you know you think my tractor's sexy
I ain't in it for your daddy's money
You make me feel like 90's country

Shake it, I dare you
Queen of my double wide trailer
Million songs I could list you
But I'm just gon' shut up and kiss you

Baby, don't be stupid
You know I love you
Blame it all on my roots
When I turned up at 90's country

Again, did I miss any?

Johnny Rivers - Summer Rain

Summer Rain
Johnny Rivers
Summer rain taps at my window
West wind soft as a sweet dream
My love, warm as the sunshine
Sitting here by me, yeah
She's here by me
She stepped out of the rainbow
Golden hair shining like moonglow
Warm lips, soft as her soul
Sitting here by me, yeah
She's here by me
All summer long we spent dancing in the sand
And the jukebox kept on playing
Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
We sailed into the sunset
Drifted home, caught by a gulf stream
Never gave a thought for tomorrow
Just let tomorrow be, now
Let tomorrow be
She wants to live in the Rockies
She says that's where we'll find peace
Settle down, raise up a family
To call our own, yeah
We will have a home
All summer long we spent grooving in the sand
Everybody kept on playing
Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Winter snows drifts by my window
North wind blowing like thunder
Our love is burning like fire
And she's here by me, yeah
She's here with me
Let tomorrow be

While sergeants played a marching tune..."

Don't forget what your good book said

Rock & Roll Heaven--Righteous Brothers

If you believe in forever,
Then life is just a one-night stand.
If there's a rock and roll heaven,
Well you know they've got a hell of a band, band, band.
Jimmy gave us rainbows,
And Janis took a piece of our hearts,
And Otis brought us all to the dock of a bay.
Sing a song to light my fire,
Remember Jim that way,
They've all found another place, another place to play.
If you believe in forever,
Then life is just a one-night stand.
If there's a rock and roll heaven,
Well you know they've got a hell of a band, band, band.
Remember bad bad Leroy Brown,
Hey Jimmy touched us with that song.
Time won't change a friend we came to know.
And Bobby gave us Mack the Knife,
Well look out, he's back in town.
They'll all be there together
When they meet in one big show.
If you believe in forever,
Then life is just a one-night stand.
If there's a rock and roll heaven,
Well you know they've got a hell of a band, band, band.
There's a spotlight waiting
No matter who you are
Cause everybody's got a song to sing,
Everyone's a star
(Everybody's got to be a star).
If you believe in forever,
Then life is just a one-night stand.
If there's a rock and roll heaven,
Well you know they've got a hell of a band, band, band.

The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face"

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rise in your eyes
And the Moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless skies, my love
To the dark and the endless skies




And the first time ever I kissed your mouth
I feel the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command, my love

And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last 'till the end of time, my love
And it wouldn't last 'til the end of time, My love

The first time ever I saw your face
Your face
Your face
Your face

wow this was fun...one my favorite songs from my 70s youth....is full of cliches that inspired generations to come I could probably do the whole song with titles.

 

[low-key]

Well....Christa I was going to go look but I think you named most of them in your list!!

I know Christa your such a rookie at music threads, you dont start the thread out by naming all of them , I got nothing, you said them all
