Lyrical Response

[PastaJoe]

Sailing takes me away to where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free

[BillsFanNC]

I turn my back to the wind
To catch my breath
Before I start off again
Driven on
Without a moment to spend
To pass an evening
With a drink and a friend

[RaoulDuke79]

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be

[WhoTom]

Jeremiah was a bullfrog
Was a good friend of mine
I never understood a single word he said
But I helped him a-drink his wine
And he always had some mighty fine wine

 

[Gray Beard]

Jessie is a friend
Yeah, I know, he's been a good friend of mine
But lately something's changed that ain't hard to define
Jessie's got himself a girl, and I wanna make her mine
 

[PastaJoe]

When she's dancing 'neath the starry sky
(Here she comes again)
Oh, she'll make you flip
(Here she comes again)
When she's dancing 'neath the starry sky
(Here she comes again)
I kinda like the way, I like the way she dips
'Cause she's my best friend's girl, uh
She's my best friend's girl-irl uh-irl
She used to be mine
She so, fine

[Bill from NYC]

When she's saying that she wants only me
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
When she's saying that I'm like a disease
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Well I guess I should stick up for myself
But I really think it's better this way
The more you suffer
The more it shows you really care, right, yeah, yeah

[Gray Beard]

Oh, Johnny get angry, Johnny get mad
Give me the biggest lecture I ever had
I want a brave man, I want a cave man
Johnny, show me that you care, really care for me

 

Every time you danced with me
You let Freddy cut in constantly
When he'd ask, you'd never speak
Must you always be so meek?

 

[WhoTom]

His mother told him, "Someday you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old band
Many people coming from miles around
To hear you play your music when the sun go down
Maybe someday your name will be in lights
Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight"

[PastaJoe]

The leader of the band is tired and his eyes are growing old
But his blood runs through my instrument and his song is in my soul
My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man
I'm just a living legacy to the leader of the band

[Gray Beard]

I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band

A thousand pictures can be drawn from one word
Only who is the artist, we got to agree
A thousand miles can lead so many ways
Just to know who is driving, what a help it would be

 

[SinceThe70s]

News is blue (the news is blue)
Has its own way to get to you
What can I do (what can I do)
When I remember my time with you

 

Pick up your feet
Got to move to the trick of the beat
There is no lead
Just take your place in the driver's seat

 

Driver's seat, driver's seat, yeah

[WhoTom]

With them windshield wipers slappin' time and Bobby clappin' hands
We finally sang near every song that driver knew

 

[Gray Beard]

Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright

[SinceThe70s]

I remember piano lessons
The hours in freezing rooms
Cruel ears and tiny hands
Destroying timeless tunes

[Bill from NYC]

Now it's dark and I'm alone

But I won't be afraid

In my room

In my room

[ExWNYer]

A room full of tears
A room full of tears

Raindrops keep a-falling
(Raindrops keeps a-falling)
Trickling down my window pane
(Trickling down my window pane)

As I sit here hoping
(as I sit here hoping)
And that you'll come back home again
(That you'll come back home again)

[PastaJoe]

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again

[Gray Beard]

Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh

 

She played around and teased me with her carefree devil eyes
She'd hold me close and kiss me but her heart was full of lies

[WhoTom]

And I know
Well, if she had me back again
Oh, I would never make her sad
I've got a heart full of soul
