The Real Buffalo Joe Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I got on a city bus and found a vacant seat, I thought I saw my future bride walking up the street, I shouted to the driver hey conductor, you must slow down. I think I see her please let me off this bus Nadine, honey is that you? Oh, Nadine. honey, is that you? Seems like every time I see you darling you got something else to do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill from NYC Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 She comes from a town where they call her the woodcutter's daughter. She's brown as the bank where she kneels down to gather her water. And she bears it away with the love that the river has taught her, Let it flow, greatly flow, wide and clear.

WhoTom Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 West Texas cowboys, they's all around, With liquor and money, they're loaded down. So soon after payday, know it seemed a shame; You know my uncle, he starts a friendly game, High-low jack and the winner take the hand. My uncle starts winnin'; cowboys got sore. One of them called him, and then two more, Accused him of cheatin'; Oh no, it couldn't be. I know my uncle, he's as honest as me, And I'm as honest as a Denver man can be.

Bill from NYC Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 It's a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man, It's a shame (sha-ame), the way you hurt me.It's a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man,I'm sitting all alone, by the telephone,Waiting for your call when you don't call at all It's a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man,It's a shame (sha-ame), the way you play with my emotions.It's a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man,You're like a child at play, on a sunny day,But you play with love and then you throw it away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoTom Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Don't let the sun go down on me Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free But losing everything is like the sun going down on me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
