Lyrical Response

[Bill from NYC]

Big wheels keep on turning
Carry me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the south-land
I miss 'ole' 'bamy once again and I think it's a sin

 

Well I heard Mister Young sing about her
Well I heard ole Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don't need him around anyhow

 

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you

[SinceThe70s]

I've been to Alabama, people, ain't a whole lot to see
Skynrd says it's a real sweet home, but it ain't nothing to me

[PastaJoe]

Alabama getaway
Alabama getaway
Only way to please me
Turn around and leave
And walk away

[Bill from NYC]

Last night I said these words to my girl
I know you never even try girl
Come on, come on, come on, come on,
Please please me like I please you.

You don't need me to show the way love
Why do I always have to say love
Come on, come on, come on, come on,
Please please me like I please you.

[RaoulDuke79]

But when she puts her arms around me,
I can, somehow, rise above it
Yeah man, when I got that little girl standing right by my side,
You know, I can tell the whole wide world, and shout it,

Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl,
Yeah, she looks so right, she's all I need tonight

[KD in CA]

He's got the whole world in His hands
He's got the whole world in His hands
He's got the whole world in His hands
He's got the whole world in His hands

[Bill from NYC]

 

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you 'cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world

[Gray Beard]

My troubles are many, they're as deep as a well
I can swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell
Swear there ain't no heaven and pray there ain't no hell, 
But I'll never know by living, only my dying will tell, 
Only my dying will tell, yeah, only my dying will tell
And when I die and when I'm gone, 
There'll be one child born and a world to carry on, to carry on

[PastaJoe]

Carry on my wayward son
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

[WhoTom]

She said, "My breasts, they will always be open.
Baby, you can rest your weary head right on me.
And there will always be a space in my parking lot
When you need a little coke and sympathy."

[The Real Buffalo Joe]

I keep thinkin' 'bout that night in Memphis,
Lord, I thought I was in Heaven.
I keep thinkin' 'bout that night in Memphis,
I thought I was in Heaven.
But I was stumblin' through the parking lot
of an invisible seven eleven.

[Bill from NYC]

Seven-Thirty-Seven comin' out of the sky.
Oh, won't you take me down to Memphis
On a midnight ride?
I wanna move.

Playin' in a travelin' band, yeah!
Well, I'm flyin' 'cross the land,
Tryin' to get a hand,
Playin' in a travelin' band.

[Gray Beard]

Lord, I was born a ramblin' man
Tryin' to make a livin' and doin' the best I can
And when it's time for leavin'
I hope you'll understand
That I was born a ramblin' man
I'm on my way to New Orleans this mornin'
I'm leavin' out of Nashville, Tennessee
They're always having a good time down on the bayou
Lord, them Delta women think the world of me

[WhoTom]

Headed out on a Greyhound
Just turned twenty-one
Went to see what could be found
Beneath the Western sun
Colorado bluebird sky
You can live a mile high
Colorado bluebird sky

 

[KD in CA]

Now he walks in quiet solitude the forest and the streams
Seeking grace in every step he takes
His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand
The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake

 

And the Colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it raining fire in the sky
You can talk to God and listen to the casual reply
Rocky mountain high

[ExiledInIllinois]

"Get out of Denver better go go
Get out of Denver better go
Get out of Denver better go go
Get out of Denver cause you look just like a commie
And you might just be a member better
Better Get out of Denver
Better Get out of Denver..."

[Gray Beard]

Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
Sent me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man

Born in the U.S.A
I was born in the U.S.A

[SinceThe70s]

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama

 

(someone around the block had this cranked up 15 minutes ago, hadn't heard it in ages)

[WhoTom]

Are you gonna take me home tonight?
Ah, down beside that red firelight
Are you gonna let it all hang out?
Fat bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go 'round

 

[Gugny]

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night

Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right
