Lyrical Response

[Gray Beard]

Sugar pie, honey bunch
You know that I love you
I can't help myself
I love you and nobody else

[Bill from NYC]

Only you know and I know
All the love we've got to show,
So don't refuse to believe it
By reading too many meanings.

'Cause you know that I mean what I say,
So don't go and take me the wrong way.
You know you can't go on getting your own way,
'Cause if you do, it's going to get you someday.

[SinceThe70s]

If I could
Baby, I'd give you my world
Open up
Everything's waiting for you

 

You can go your own way

[WhoTom]

"Take me to another place", she said
"Take me to another time
Run with me across the oceans
Float me on a silver cloud"

 

If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would and I'd take you now

[Bill from NYC]

If I could build my whole world around you,

I'd make your eyes the morning sun.

I'd put so much love where there is sorrow,

I'd put joy where there's never been none.

Then I'd give my love to you,

For you to keep for the rest of your life,

Oh and happiness would surely be ours,

And that would be all right, oh yes it would.

[Gray Beard]

I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright, bright
Bright sunshiny day

[BillsFanNC]

It's such a cloudy day
Seems we'll never see the sun
I feel the day is all uncertainty
Burning in the moment, trapped by the desperation
Between how it is and how it ought to be
Between how it is and how it ought to be

[Gugny]

And if you say to me tomorrow
Oh what fun it all would be
Then what's to stop us, pretty baby
But what is and what should never be

[WhoTom]

I don't know what to say about it,
When all you ears have turned away,
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay?
That's the way
That's the way it oughtta be
Oh don't you know now
Mama said, mama said, that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah

[Gray Beard]

I went walking the other day and
Everything was going fine
Met a little boy named Billy Joe
And then I almost lost my mind

 

Mama said there'll be days like this
There'll be days like this, my mama said

[Gugny]

My mama said
That your life is a gift
And my mama said
There's much weight you will lift

And my mama said
Leave those bad boys alone
And my mama said
Be home before the dawn

And my mama said
You can be rich or poor
But my mama said
You can be big or small

 

But I'm always on the run (always on the run)
But I'm always on the run

[WhoTom]

We could jam in Joe's Garage
His mama was screamin'
His dad was mad
We was playin' the same old song
In the afternoon 'n sometimes we would
Play it all night long
It was all we knew, 'n easy too
So we wouldn't get it wrong
All we did was bend the string like...

 

[The Real Buffalo Joe]

You're sweet as a honey bee
But like a honey bee stings
You've gone and left my heart in pain
All you left is our favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
It used to bring sweet memories
Of a tender love that used to be

 

Now it's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
I, oh I

[Gray Beard]

Get yourself cooler, lay yourself low
Coincidental murder, with nothing to show
When the judge's constipation go to his head
And his wife's aggravation, you're soon enough dead
It's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend

[Bill from NYC]

Judge said "Son this gonna cost you some time."

Dupree said "Judge, you know that crossed my mind."

Judge said "Fact, it's gonna cost you your life."

Dupree said "Judge, you know that seems to me to be about right."

 

[WhoTom]

My pappy said, "Son, you're gonna' drive me to drinkin'
If you don't stop drivin' that Hot Rod Lincoln"

 

[Gray Beard]

The Little Old Lady From Pasadena
(Go Granny, go, Granny, go, Granny, go)
Has a pretty little flowerbed of white gardenias;
(Go Granny, go, Granny, go, Granny, go)
But parked in a rickety old garage,
There's a brand new shiny super stocked Dodge.
And ev'rybody's sayin' that there's nobody meaner than 
The Little Old Lady From Pasadena.

[Bill from NYC]

I know all about you, your childhood days,
Your mom and dad, your pretty face.
Mean mistreater, if you need me,
I'm needin' you, to set me free

[Gray Beard]

If you love me let me know 
If you don't then let me go
I can't take another minute of a day without you in it
If you love me, let it be
If you don't then set me free
Take the chains away that keep me lovin' you

[WhoTom]

Set me free why don't ya babe
Get out my life why don't ya babe
You really don't love me
You just keep me hangin' on
