Name That Tune....

[slusher]

They made hypocrite judgements

After the fact

But the name of the game is

Be hit and hit back.

Bob Dylan-Boom Boom Mancini

There's a party tonight, you're in a red light zone

If you don't want a ticket you better move on

If you break the law you gotta pay your dues

Ain't much better if you play it by the rules

'Cause it's so easy, it's so right

It's so easy to rock it with your body, baby

It's so easy, it's so right

It's so easy if you drive it all night

No parking on the dance floor- midnight star

Bob Dylan-Boom Boom Mancini

Right song, wrong artist--though Dylan did cover it in concert at least once. (Pretty badly, too.)

David Letterman once asked this artist his opinion of Dylan. "Well, he did invent my job," was the reply.

Im with ya. I respect the guy for being who he is, but hes not even in my top 50. Hes had more misses than hits for me. For the most part I think hes a better song writer than guitar hero. Theres not one single solo of his that I ever thought "WOW!". I think he rested on his laurels way too soon in his life, and he's just been a big loaf of wheat bread since then. Yeah, hes there, but theres better stuff.Again, I like and respect him, I just dont get the hype.

I have never heard that before, that's hilarious!! I, in turn agree with you, Terry.

Carl, your good. I know most of these song, just cant put a title or artist to them. too busy trying to pick up the honeys when this would come on. never, EVER listened to it outside of clubs.

[tubbs]

ok, back to the lyrics

Working on the sound of the band

Trying to get the music right

Two go out working

Three stay home at night

boy, I figured with the Clapton conversation..... I feel one of his best, just like the tune,

pretending - Eric Clapton.

[tubbs]

Well, I hear it's fine if you got the time
and the ten to get yourself in

[tubbs]

Mercy I'm Gonna' Bleed, Nobody's Gonna' Make A Monkey Of Me
I Can Do It For You, I'd Be So Kind
'Cause If I Don't I Think I'll Blow My Mind
Tonight

It's time to leave and get another quart
Around the corner at the liquor store

Thanks AL, I 300 cd's collected over the years since I was in my 20's and 3000 mp3 songs in the computer. Listened to all that country from my parents on the 60'still late 70's on the radio. Now music, movies and my models is what I have since my disability has worsen...my brother gave me all his 45's when he moved out in Chicago ..

Is that Zepplin? I've never understood that lyric at all but reading it out loud just now I THINK it's the first line of a Zep song.

[chunkypeanutbutter]

Take me to the River, Talking heads

Good'un.

I left the door ajar

I left my vacuum flask full of hot tea and sugar

Left the keys right in my ca-wr!

On the Zep song Liven Lovin Maid, I used to sing alone with whatever came into my head, I didn't know the lyrics either. Years ago in Jimmy Page was interviewed by Rolling Stone and he claimed that, that was the most misunderstood lyric from their music. He set the record straight that's the only reason I knew it. I'd still be singing whatever!

Yes it is the first lyrics of the song!

Ok I have ten here have at it!

1) Don't say words your gonna regret

Don't let the fire get to your head

2) Well we can't salute you

Can't find a flag

If that don't suite ya

That's a drag

3) She Swept me off my feet

Made my whole world seem so complete

4) It was easy as fishin

You can be a musician

If you can make sounds loud and mellow

5) I guess I should have kept my mouth shut when I start to brag about my car

6) Jinny was sweet

She always smiled for the people she'd meet

7) Raven hair

Ruby lips

Sparks fly from her finger tips

8) Girl I can't understand it, why you want to hurt me

After all of the things I've done for you

9) Put your right hand out

Give a firm handshake

10) I was born six gun in my hand

behind a gun I'll make my final stand

I just found this thread today. What a great way to have some fun. I am pretty good at music trivia however in full disclosure I have been listening to my iTunes today on shuffle and jotted ten down for the fun of it! Range is 60s-80s Some are pretty lame, But I don't have both oars in the water anyway. jrass

Snake,

I didn't think anyone would get Drivers Seat for awhile. For me it's still one of the best bass riff intros out there
