Re: The return of the Lyric Association Thread
So I handed him my bottle
And he drank down my last swallow
Then he bummed a cigarette
And asked me for a light
And the night got deathly quiet
And his face lost all expression
Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy,
You gotta learn to play it right.
You got to know when to hold 'em,
Know when to fold 'em,
Know when to walk away,
And know when to run.
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealing's done.

Daddy made whiskey and he made it well.
Cost two dollars and it burned like hell.
I cut hickory just to fire the still,
Drink down a bottle and be ready to kill.

Re: The return of the Lyric Association Thread
Did you hear that telephone ring?
You'd better get ready and pack your things
It's time to be going out again
Kiss the ladies goodbye,
Wipe the tears from their pretty eyes.
You'll be back sometime, but you don't know when

Re: The return of the Lyric Association Thread
You say, "Yes", I say, "No"
You say, "Stop" and I say, "Go, go, go"
Oh no
You say, "Goodbye" and I say, "Hello, hello, hello"
I don't know why you say, "Goodbye", I say, "Hello, hello, hello"
I don't know why you say, "Goodbye", I say, "Hello"

Re: The return of the Lyric Association Thread
I’m walkin’ down that long, lonesome road, babe
Where I’m bound, I can’t tell
But goodbye’s too good a word, gal
So I’ll just say fare thee well
I ain’t sayin’ you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don’t mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don’t think twice, it’s all right

Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe

Blue-jean baby
L.A. Lady
Seamstress for the band
Pretty-eyed
Pirate smile
You'll marry a music man

Re: The return of the Lyric Association Thread
Well, I just got into town about an hour ago
Took a look around, see which way the wind blow
Where the little girls in their Hollywood bungalows
Are you a lucky little lady in the city of light
Or just another lost angel, city of night
City of night, city of night, city of night, woo, come on
L.A. woman, L.A. woman

City of tiny lights
Don't you want to go
Hear the tiny auto horns
Wear the tiny clothes

Ballerina
You must've seen her
Dancing in the sand
And now she's in me
Always with me
Tiny dancer in my hand

Re: The return of the Lyric Association Thread
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But we haven't done a bloody thing all day
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But the kettle's on the boil
And we're so easily called away
Hands across the water
Heads across the sky

Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across the dead-end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up, puts my back up against the wall
Sunday, Bloody Sunday

Re: The return of the Lyric Association Thread
If Jesus saves, well he better save himself
From the gory glory seekers who use his name in death
Oh Jesus save me
Well I saw him in the city, and on the mountains of the moon
His cross was rather bloody, and he could hardly roll his stone
Oh Jesus save me

Come to your house, you know he don't take long.
Look in the bed on the morning, children find that your family's gone.

Re: The return of the Lyric Association Thread
In Morgan City, where the shrimp boats land
Put a nickle in the juke box, you'll hear a Cajun band
Ain't ya glad you come along, boy, to the land of dreams?
Rollin' down Rt. Ninety, to New Orleans.

You know that big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling, rolling yeah (rolling)
Rolling on the river

Re: The return of the Lyric Association Thread
So let's get to the point, let's roll another joint
Let's head on down the road
To somewhere I gotta go
And you don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels to be me
Let's head on down the road
To somewhere I gotta go
And you don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels to be me

And I sure would like a hit!

Click flash blade in ghetto night
Rudy's looking for a fight
Rat cat alley, roll them bones
Need that cash to feed that Jones
And the politicians throwing stones
Singing ashes, ashes, all fall down
Ashes, ashes, all fall down
