From a movie scene"

Rubberlegs

A wild ride, over stony ground
Such a lust for life, the circus comes to town

Taxedalot

But as he spoke, from beneath his cloak
He slipped another ace

Deja Boo

I will go down with this ship, I won't put my hands up and surrender





(borrowed from a friend) :pac:

gammygils

Hanging out their old love letters
on the line to dry

Deja Boo

Aruba, Jamaica, oh I want to take ya to Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama

Near, far, wherever you are

I'd rather jack than Fleetwood Mac.

Deja Boo

I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy.

RobMc59

Let the winds blow high
Let the winds blow low
Down the street in my kilt I'll go

Ipso

What's the matter with the songs he's singin'
Can't you tell that they're pretty lame
After listenin' to a couple albums
Well, they all start to sound the same

So he tried to change his musical style
He tossed all his ballads in the circular file
Then he found the punk sound
Breakin' ground all around
It's still Billy Joel to me

Somewhere in the city where the air is still
A baby being born to the overkill
Who cares what people say
We walk down love's motorway

Great song. Here's another one from the same artist

"As the ships and the steel, slip away to the cry of compete, there's a message for us, we can get there by bus"

Capt'n Midnight

As I walk through the valley where I harvest my grain,
I take a look at my wife and realize she's very plain

DeBurca

And there's a storm that's raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I hear your name in certain circles
And it always makes me smile

tayto lover

No, I can’t forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that’s just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows

bonzodog2

Who's gonna tell you when
It's too late
Who's gonna tell you things
Aren't so great
You can't go on
Thinking nothing's wrong

Immortal Starlight

There's a man I meet walks up our street
He's a worker for the council
Has been twenty years
And he takes no lip off nobody
And litter off the gutter.

Ted_YNWA

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever

Deja Boo

There are some great songs on this thread!

"When the day is dawning,
On a Texas Sunday morning"

branie2

He's the new lead vocalist in a band called Fianna Fail
And he's running the whole country like he's running a dance hall.

tayto lover

I’m coming home, I’ve done my time
And I’ve got to know what is and isn’t mine
If you received my letter telling you I’ll soon be free
Then you know just what to do, if you still want me
If you still want me .....

branie2

The old hometown looks the same
As I step down from the train
And there to meet me are my mama and papa

IAMAMORON

Holly came from Miami F.L.A.
Hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.

tayto lover

I remember to this day
The bright red Georgia clay
And how it stuck to the tyres
After the summer rain

"and i knew that topless waitress
had something up her sleeve"

rdwight

"well, i don't drink as much as I used to
somehow it's just not the style"

rdwight

"I took the head off Elvis,
I filled Fred up to the pelvis,
Yab a dab a do
the King is gone
And so are you"

rdwight

"I'm a busy man
I'm up to my eyes
but I remain calm"
