KD in CA Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 It seems like yesterday But it was long ago Janey was lovely, she was the queen of my nights There in the darkness with the radio playing low And the secrets that we shared The mountains that we moved Caught like a wildfire out of control Till there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove And I remember what she said to me How she swore that it never would end I remember how she held me oh so tight Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then Against the wind We were runnin' against the wind We were young and strong, we were runnin' against the wind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinceThe70s Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 I don't know much about dancin' That's why I got this song One of my legs is shorter than the other And both my feet's too long 'Course now right along with 'em I got no natural rhythm But I go dancin' every night Hopin' one day I might get it right I'm a Dancin' fool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoTom Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Well, the cool breeze came on Tuesday And the corn's a bumper crop And the fields are full of dancin' Full of singin' and romancin' The music never stopped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 All her boyfriends used to come and call Why not come dancing, it's only natural Another Saturday, another date She would be ready but she'd always make him wait In the hallway, in anticipation He didn't know the night would end up in frustration He'd end up blowing all his wages for the week All for a cuddle and a peck on the cheek Come dancing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Two feet they come a creepin' Like a black cat do And two bodies are layin' naked A creeper think he got nothin' to lose So he creeps into this house, yeah And unlocks the door And as a man's reaching for his trousers Shoots him full of thirty-eight holes Mr. Saturday night special Got a barrel that's blue and cold Ain't good for nothin' But put a man six feet in a hole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 There's a world where I can go and tell my secrets to In my room, in my room In this world I lock out all my worries and my fears In my room, in my room Do my dreaming and my scheming Lie awake and pray Do my crying and my sighing Laugh at yesterday Now it's dark and I'm alone But I won't be afraid In my room, in my room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons,Packed up and ready to goHeard of some grave sites, out by the highway,A place where nobody knows The sound of gunfire, off in the distance,I'm getting used to it nowLived in a brownstone, lived in a ghetto,I've lived all over this town This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,This ain't no fooling aroundNo time for dancing, or lovey dovey,I ain't got time for that now Transmit the message, to the receiver,Hope for an answer some dayI got three passports, a couple of visas,You don't even know my real name High on a hillside, the trucks are loading,Everything's ready to rollI sleep in the daytime, I work in the nighttime,I might not ever get home This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,This ain't no fooling aroundThis ain't no Mudd Club, or C. B. G. B.,I ain't got time for that now Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?Heard about Pittsburgh, P. A.?You oughta know not to stand by the windowSomebody see you up there I got some groceries, some peanut butter,To last a couple of daysBut I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no headphones,Ain't got no records to play Why stay in college? Why go to night school?Gonna be different this timeCan't write a letter, can't send no postcard,I ain't got time for that now Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock,We blended in with the crowdWe got computers, we're tapping phone lines,I know that that ain't allowed We dress like students, we dress like housewives,Or in a suit and a tieI changed my hairstyle, so many times now,I don't know what I look like! You make me shiver, I feel so tender,We make a pretty good teamDon't get exhausted, I'll do some driving,You ought to get you some sleep Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks?They won't help me surviveMy chest is aching, burns like a furnace,The burning keeps me alive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
