The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!
The FIRST time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless skies
The FIRST time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
And the FIRST time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last till the end of time my love
The FIRST time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face

When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall
We used to love while others used to play
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by
Some one else moved in from far away
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small
And you don't ask the time of day
But you and I, our love will never die
But guess we'll cry come FIRST of May
The apple tree that grew for you and me
I watched the apples falling one by one
And I recall the moment of them all
The day I kissed your cheek and you were mine
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small
And you don't ask the time of day
But you and I, our love will never die
But guess we'll cry come first of May
When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall
Do do do do do do do do do
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by
Some one else moved in from far away
I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And she's taken just all that I had
But if you want I'll try to love again
Baby I'll try to love again but I know
The FIRST cut is the deepest
Baby I know the FIRST cut is the deepest
But when it come to being lucky she's cursed
When it come to loving me she's the worst
I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
And I'm sure going to give you a try
And if you want I'll try to love again
Baby I'll IT'LL Htry to love again but I know
The FIRST cut is the deepest
Baby I know the FIRST cut is the deepest
But when it come to being lucky she's cursed
When it come to loving me she's the worst
I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
But I'm sure gonna give you a try
'Cause if you want I'll try to love again
Baby I'll try to love again but I know
Wooh
The FIRST cut is the deepest
Baby I know the FIRST cut is the deepest
When it come to being lucky she's cursed
When it come to loving me she's the worse

So there, Andthisisme, nah-nah-nah-boo-boo!
Morning has broken like the FIRST morning
Blackbird has spoken like the FIRST bird
Praise for the singing
Praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the world
Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the FIRST dewfall on the FIRST grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass
Mine is the sunlight
Mine is the morning
Born of the one light Eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise ev'ry morning
God's recreation of the new day
Morning has broken like the FIRST morning
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing
Praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the world

Well played
I may often be here first but then you always seem to have the last word. Perhaps I should start staying up later....
You’re my first my last my everything.

My FIRST, my last, my everything
And the answer to all my dreams
You're my sun, my moon, my guiding star
My kind of wonderful, that's what you are
I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
You're all I'm living for, your love I'll keep forevermore
First, you're the last, my everything
And with you I've found so many things
A love so new, only you could bring
Can't you see it's you? You make me feel this way (Can't you see it's you?)
You're like a first morning dew on a brand new day
I see so many ways that I
Can love you 'til the day I die
You're my reality, yet I'm lost in a dream
You're the first, the last, my everything
I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
Girl, you're my reality, but I'm lost in a dream
You're the first, you're the last, my everything
You and me babe is you
I would climb any mountain
Sail across the stormy sea
If that's what it takes me baby
To show how much you mean to me
And I guess that it's just the woman in you
That brings out the man in me
I know I can't help myself
You're all in the world to me
It feels like the FIRST time
Feels like the very FIRST time
It feels like the FIRST time
It feels like the very FIRST time
I have waited a lifetime
Spent my time so foolishly
But now that I found you
Together we'll make history
And I know that it must be the woman in you
That brings out the man in me
I know I can't help myself
You're all my eyes can see
And it feels like the FIRST time
Like it never did before
Feels like the FIRST time
Like we've opened up the door
Feels like the FIRST time
Like it never will again, never again
It feels like the FIRST time
Feels like the very FIRST time
It feels like the FIRST time
It feels like the very FIRST time
Won't you open up the door
It feels like the FIRST time
Feels like the very FIRST time
It feels like the FIRST time
It feels like the very FIRST time

It was a hot afternoon
Last day of June
And the sun was a demon
The clouds were afraid
One ten in the shade
And the pavement was steaming
I told Billy Ray
In his red Chevrolet
I needed time for some thinking
I was just walking by
When I looked in her eye
And I swore it was winking
She was thirty one and I was seventeen
I knew nothing about love, she knew everything
When I sat down beside her on the front porch swing
And wondered what the coming night would bring
The sun closed her eyes
As it climbed in the sky
And it started to swelter
The sweat trickled down the front of her gown
I thought it would melt her
She threw back her hair
Like I wasn't there
She sipped on a julep
Her shoulders were bare
And I tried not to stare
When I looked at her two lips
And when she looked at me
I heard her softly say
I know you're young
You don't know what to do or say
But stay with me until the sun has gone away
And I will chase the boy in you away
And then she smiled then we talked for a while
Then we walked for a mile to the sea
We sat on the sand, and the boy took her hand
But I saw the sun rise as a man
Ten years have gone by
Since I looked in her eye
But the memory lingers
I got back in my mind
To the very FIRST time
And feel the touch of her fingers
It was a hot afternoon
Last day of June
And the sun was a demon
The clouds were afraid
One ten in the shade
And the pavement was steaming

There's a grown man walking in my garden
A grown man walking in my garden
I find it strange, find it so alarming
I've got my blade, gonna put it where his heart is
FIRST of all, there is no God
'Cause I went out and killed my God
And laid his body in the dirt
I killed him clean, so it did not hurt
And now the Moon is full
The Moon is wide
The Moon it makes, waters rise
And weave the waves, in the deep
The kind of calm, I hope to keep
There's a grown man walking in my garden
A grown man walking in my garden
I find it strange, find it so alarming
I've got my blade, gonna put it where his heart is
Some fellas look at the eyes
Some fellas look at the nose
Some fellas look at the size
Some fellas look at the clothes
I don't care if her eyes are red
I don't care if her nose is long
I don't care if she's underfed
I don't care if her clothes are worn
FIRST I look at the purse!
Some fellas like the smiles they wear
Some fellas like the legs that's all
Some fellas like the style of their hair
Want their waist to be small.
I don't care if their legs are thin
I don't care if their teeth are big
I don't care if their hair's a wig
Why waste time lookin' at the waistline?
FIRST I look at the purse!
A woman can be fat as can be,
kisses sweet as honey
But that don't mean a thing to me
If you ain't got no money
If the purse is fat....that's where it's at.
Some fellas like the way they walk
The way they swing and sway
Some fellas like the way they talk
Dig the things they say.
I don't care if they wobble like a...
or talk with a lisp
I still think I'm a good lover
if the dollar bills are crisp
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!
I don't care if you got yourself a wrap
all I want is your pretty green cash
Bought me a suit, bought me a car
Want me to look like a hollywood star
Money, (Money!) I want money (Money!)
Baby, ain't no "why", baby (Money!)
I need money!
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!

We've tried our hand
At love before
We've been around the game enough
To know the score'
But then is then
And now is now
And now is all that matters anyhow
Make believe it's your FIRST time
Leave your sadness behind
Make believe it's your FIRST time
And I'll make believe it's mine

The way it oughta be
This moment's ours
Tonight's the night
And if we fall in love

Leave your sadness behind
Make believe it's your FIRST time
And I'll make believe it's mine

The last thing on my mind -Neil Diamond

It's a lesson too late for the learnin'
Made of sand, made of sand
In the wink of an eye my soul is turning
In your hand, in your hand
Are you going away
With no words of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Well I could have loved you better
I didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was
The LAST thing on my mind
You got reasons aplenty for going
This I know, this I know
For the weeds
Have been steadily growin'
Please don't go, please don't go
Are you going away
With no words of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Well I could have loved you better
I didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was
The last thing on my mind.
When the stranger came to town
All the people watched with wonder
In their tattered clothes
Gathered 'round and raised their eyes up from the dirt
And the stranger said to them
I have been upon the mountain
I have witnessed forces, like cannons
That could ram you to the ground
Stand up on your feet
'Cause your life is short as hell
You could be dead tomorrow
Today may be your
LAST chance to believe in yourself
Your LAST chance to yell
Your LAST chance to be good to yourself
Your LAST chance to drink from life's well
In the crowd a voice was heard
Should we get them before they get you
Should we strike the first blow
He said no, no, no, you don't understand
The enemy is in your heart
Self-respect robbed by self-pity
Look across the country
All the people with their dreams dead in their hearts
Stand up on your feet
'Cause your life is short as hell
You could be dead tomorrow
Today may be your
LAST chance to believe in yourself
Your LAST chance to yell
Your LAST chance to be good to yourself
Your LAST chance to drink from life's well
So drink from the well
Oh yeah
It could be your
LAST chance to believe in yourself
Your LAST chance to yell
Your LAST chance to be good to yourself
Your LAST chance to drink from life's well
Drink from the well
Oh yeah
Yeah
Drink from the well

Hello, I don't even know your name, but I'm hopin' all the same
This is more than just a simple hello.
Hello, do I smile and look away? No, I think I'll smile and stay
To see where this might go.
Cause the LAST time I felt like this, I was falling in love,
Falling and feeling, I'd never fall in love again.
Yes, the last time I felt like this, was long before I knew
What I'm feeling now with you.
Hello, I can't wait till we're alone, somewhere quiet on our own
So that we can fall the rest of the way.
I know that before the night is thru, I'll be talking love to you,
Meaning every word I say.
Cause the last time I felt like this I was falling in love,
Falling and feeling, I'd never fall in love again.
Yes, the last time I felt like this, was long before I knew
What I'm feeling now with you.
Oh, the last time I felt like this I was falling in love,
Falling and feeling, I'd never fall in love again.
Yes, the last time I felt like this, was long before I knew
What I'm feeling now with you.
She grew up in an Indiana town
Had a good-lookin' mama who never was around
But she grew up tall and she grew up right
With them Indiana boys on them Indiana nights
Well, she moved down here at the age of eighteen
She blew the boys away, was more than they'd seen
I was introduced and we both started groovin'
She said, "I dig you baby, but I got to keep movin' on
Keep movin' on"
LAST dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again
Well, I don't know, but I've been told
You never slow down, you never grow old
I'm tired of screwin' up, tired of going down
Tired of myself, tired of this town
Oh, my my, oh, hell yes
Honey, put on that party dress
Buy me a drink, sing me a song
Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long
LAST dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again
There's pigeons down on Market Square
She's standin' in her underwear
Lookin' down from a hotel room
Nightfall will be comin' soon
Oh, my my, oh, hell yes.
You got to put on that party dress
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone
I hit my last number and walked to the road
LAST dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again

You can tell by the way she walks that she's my girl
You can tell by the way she talks, she rules the world
You can see in her eyes that no one is her chain
She's my girl, my supergirl
[Chorus]
And then she'd say, "It's okay"
"I got lost on the way, but I'm a supergirl"
And supergirls don't cry
And then she'd say, "It's alright"
"I got home late LAST night, but I'm a supergirl"
And supergirls just fly..

This is the LAST cowboy song
The end of a hundred year Waltz
The voices sound sad as they're singin' along
Another piece of America's lost
He rides the feed lots, clerks in the markets
On weekends sellin' tobacco and beer
And his dreams of tomorrow, surrounded by fences
But he'll dream tonight of when fences weren't here
He blazed the trail with Lewis and Clark
And eyeball to eyeball, old Wyatt backed down
He stood shoulder to shoulder with Travis in Texas
And rode with the 7th when Custer went down
This is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year Waltz
The voices sound sad as they're singin' along
Another piece of America's lost
Remington showed us how he looked on canvas
And Louis Lamour has told us his tale
Me and Johnny and Waylon and Kris sing about him
And wish to God, we could have ridden his trail
This is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year Waltz
The voices sound sad as they're singin' along
Another piece of America's lost
This is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year Waltz
The voices sound sad as they're singin' along
Another piece of America's lost
This is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year Waltz
This is a MAN'S world, this is a MAN'S world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl
You see, MAN made the cars to take us over the road
MAN made the trains to carry heavy loads
MAN made electric light to take us out of the dark
MAN made the boat for the water, like Noah made the ark
This is a MAN'S, a MAN'S, a MAN'S world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl
MAN thinks about a little baby girls and a baby boys
MAN makes then happy 'cause man makes them toys
And after MAN has made everything, everything he can
You know that man makes money to buy from other MAN
This is a MAN'S world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl
He's lost in the wilderness
He's lost in bitterness

Boy, was I ever wrong about the title of this song, I thought that it was called "This Is A Man's World". I would have lost the farm if I had bet on this.
It happened one summer, it happened one time
It happened forever, for a short time
A place for a moment, an end to dream
Forever I loved you, forever it seemed
One summer never ends, one summer never began
It keeps me standing still, it takes all my will
And then suddenly LAST summer
Sometimes I never leave, but sometimes I would
Sometimes I stay too long, sometimes I would
Sometimes it frightens me, sometimes it would
Sometimes I'm all alone and wish that I could
And then suddenly LAST summer
And then suddenly LAST summer
Until suddenly LAST summer
And then suddenly LAST summer
Until suddenly LAST summer

Well I told you once and I told you twice
But ya never listen to my advice
You don't try very hard to please me
With what you know it should be easy
Well this could be the LAST time
This could be the LAST time
Maybe the LAST time
I don't know, oh no, oh no
Well, I'm sorry girl but I can't stay
Feelin' like I do today
It's too much pain and too much sorrow
Guess I'll feel the same tomorrow
Well this could be the LAST time
This could be the LAST time
Maybe the LAST time
I don't know, oh no, oh no
Well this could be the LAST time
This could be the LAST time
Maybe the LAST time
I don't know, oh no, oh no
Well I told you once and I told you twice
That someone will have to pay the price
But here's a chance to change your mind
'Cause I'll be gone a long, long time
Well this could be the LAST time
This could be the LAST time
Maybe the LAST time
I don't know, oh no, oh no
LAST time baby
To say no more
Baby I don't know
Well I don't know
Well, I don't know
I don't know
Well, I don't know
Well, I don't know

Keep your eyes on the right side of the video. Charlie Watts comes running in at the last minute. Why? Was he detained at the airport because TSA conducted an extensive search or was he so excited to be on the Ed Sullivan Show that he had to pee? 😜
I vaguely remember this- a reporter from a Canadian newspaper wrote, “Ed Sullivan wrote to say that he agreed with my description of the Stones as a grubby lot, and to pledge that he won’t have them back. I am bucked up by Ed’s promise that ‘So help me, the untidy Stones will never again darken our portals'”
History of course shows that he did in fact have them back. In fact they appeared 6 times in all, I think.

You came into my life like rain upon a barren desert
One smile and I was born again
I felt sure it wasn't too late
I'd find strength to make me go straight
I had love and threw it away
Why did they lead me astray?
For LAST night in Soho I let my life go
I never told you of some things I've done I'm so ashamed of
I thought my foolish past was over and done
I felt sure I'd make a new start
I tried with all of my heart
I had dreams and broke them in two
I'm just not worth of you!
For LAST night in Soho I let my life go
Well, hi there, kid you ain't been around for quite some little while
See you got yourself a real cute doll you're living in style
But boy don't get above your station
If you don't want aggravation
Got a little job for you
This is what you gotta do, boy!
That's how last night in Soho I let my life go
Don't cry my baby as they lead me where no love can help me
Don't stay around to watch me go
Just forget there once was a time
You were proud to call yourself mine
I had love right here in my hand
Why could I not understand?
For last night in Soho I let my life go
For last night in Soho I let my life go
Well, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me.
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good,
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
We were out on a date in my daddy's car.
We hadn't driven very far.
There in the road, straight ahead ...
The car was stalled, the engine was dead.
I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right.
Never forget the sound that night ...
The cryin' tires, the bustin' glass.
The painful scream that I heard last.
Well, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me.
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good,
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
Well, when I woke up, the rain was pourin' down.
There were people standing all around.
Something warm running in my eyes,
But I found my baby somehow that night.
I raised her head, and when she smiled, and said,
"Hold me darling for a little while."
I held her close. I kissed her our LAST kiss.
I found the love that I knew I would miss.
But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight.
I lost my love ... my life, that night.
Well, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me.
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good,
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.

Ev'rywhere I hear the sound
Of marching charging feet, boy
'Cause summer's here and the time is right
For fighting in the street, boy
Well now, what can a poor boy do
Except to sing for a rock n' roll band?
'Cause in sleepy London town
There's just no place for a street fighting MAN, no
Hey think the time is right
For a palace revolution
But where I live the game
To play is compromise solution
Well now, what can a poor boy do
Except to sing for a rock n' roll band?
'Cause in sleepy London town
There's just no place for a street fighting MAN, no. Get down.
Hey so my name is called Disturbance
I'll shout and scream
I'll kill the king, I'll rail at all his servants
Well, what can a poor boy do
Except to sing for a rock n' roll band?
'Cause in sleepy London town
There's just no place for a street fighting MAN, no
Get down

When was the last time you kissed me
And I don't mean a touch now and then
It's been a long time since you felt like my woman
And even longer since I felt like your MAN
So tell me if you think it's over
And I'll leave it up to you how it ends
'Cause if you don't want the love I can give you
Well there's a honky tonk angel who will take me back in
You never look at me and say "I love you"
How much more do you think I can stand
Oh, there's an old friend out there and she's waiting
Lord she's happy just holding my hand
So tell me if you think it's over
And I'll leave it up to you how it ends
'Cause if you don't want the love I can give you
Well there's a honky tonk angel who will take me back in
Yes, there's a honky tonk angel who will take me back in

..Bad bitches wear purple hair, with attitudes that no MAN could bear
Uh oh look at what the Cat dragged in
Keep them rats out my cat mansion
Fuck all your opinions, I don't give them attention
Can't you see it's a perfect night
Spin yourself and them girls gon' bite
Passing 'round in a circle higher, burn that fire that purple light..
Old MAN look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old MAN look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old MAN look at my life,
Twenty four
and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.
Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things
that don't get lost.
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you.
Old MAN take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.
Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.
I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.
Old MAN take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.
Old MAN look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old MAN look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

Well my pad is very messy, got whiskers on my chin
Never had no problems 'cause I've always paid the rent
I got no time for lovin'
Cause my time is all used up
I stand outside creatin'
All the groovy kinds of love
I'm a MAN, yes I am and I can't help but love you so
I'm a MAN, yes I am and I can't help but love you so
If I had my choice of matter
I'd would rather be with cats
All engrossed in mental chatter
Showing where your mind is at
While relating to each other
How strong the love can be
By resisting all the good times with each groovy chick we see
I'm a MAN yes I am and I can't help but love you so
I'm a MAN yes I am and I can't help but love you so
I've got to keep my image
While I'm standing on the floor
If I drop upon my knees
It's just to keep them on my nose
You think that I'm not human
And my heart is made of stone
But I've never had no problems
'Cause my body's pretty strong
I'm a MAN yes I am and I can't help but love you so
I'm a MAN yes I am and I can't help but love you so
I'm a MAN yes I am and I can't help but love you so
If I had my choice of matter
I would rather be with cats
All engrossed in mental chatter
Showin' where your mind is at
While relating to each other
How strong your love can be
By resisting all the good times with each groovy chick we see
I'm a MAN yes I am and I can't help but love you so
I'm a MAN yes I am and I can't help but love you so
I'm a MAN yes I am and I can't help but love you so
I gotta keep my image
While I'm standin' on the floor
If I drop upon my knees
It's just to keep them on my nose
You think that I'm not human
And my heart is made of stone
But I never had no problems
'Cause my body's pretty strong
I'm a MAN, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so
MAN, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so
MAN, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so
MAN, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so

If you want a lover
I'll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
I'll wear a mask for you
If you want a partner, take my hand, or
If you want to strike me down in anger
Here I stand
I'm your MAN
If you want a boxer
I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor
I'll examine every inch of you
If you want a driver, climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can
I'm your MAN
Ah, the moon's too bright
The chain's too tight
The beast won't go to sleep
I've been running through these promises to you
That I made and I could not keep
Ah, but a man never got a woman back
Not by begging on his knees
Or I'd crawl to you baby and I'd fall at your feet
And I'd howl at your beauty like a dog in heat
And I'd claw at your heart, and I'd tear at your sheet
I'd say please (please)
I'm your MAN
And if you've got to sleep a moment on the road
I will steer for you
And if you want to work the street alone
I'll disappear for you
If you want a father for your child
Or only want to walk with me a while across the sand
I'm your MAN
If you want a lover
I'll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
I'll wear a mask for you
Hey Mister Tambourine MAN, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm goin' to
Hey Mister Tambourine MAN, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning, I'll come followin' you
Take me for a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship
All my senses have been stripped
And my hands can't feel to grip
And my toes too numb to step
Wait only for my boot heels to be wanderin'
I'm ready to go anywhere I'm ready for to fade
On to my own parade cast your dancin' spell my way
I promise to go under it
Hey Mister Tambourine MAN, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm goin' to
Hey Mister Tambourine MAN, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning, I'll come followin' you

Hurdy Gurdy Man - Donovan
only registered users can see external links
Thrown like a star in my vast sleep
I opened my eyes to take a peek
To find that I was by the sea
Gazing with tranquility
'Twas then when the Hurdy Gurdy MAN
Came singing songs of love
Then when the Hurdy Gurdy MAN
Came singing songs of love
"Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy" he sang
"Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy" he sang
"Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy" he sang
Histories of ages past
Unenlightened shadows cast
Down through all eternity
The crying of humanity
'Tis then when the Hurdy Gurdy MAN
Comes singing songs of love
Then when the Hurdy Gurdy MAN
Comes singing songs of love
"Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy" he sang
"Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurd
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy" he sang
"Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy" he sang
Here comes the Roly Poly MAN
He's singing songs of love
"Roly poly, roly poly, holy poly poly" he sang
"Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy" he sang
"Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy" he sang
He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door
Ooooh, what a lucky MAN he was
Ooooh, what a lucky MAN he was
White lace and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was led
Ooooh, what a lucky MAN he was
Ooooh, what a lucky MAN he was
He went to fight wars
For his country and his king
Of his honor and his glory
The people would sing
Ooooh, what a lucky MAN he was
Ooooh, what a lucky MAN he was
A bullet had found him
His blood ran as he cried
No money could save him
So he laid down and he died
Ooooh, what a lucky MAN he was
Ooooh, what a lucky MAN he was

I used to cry myself to sleep at night
But that was all before he came
I thought love had to hurt to turn out right
But now he's here
It's not the same, it's not the same
He fills me up
He gives me love
More love than I've ever seen
He's all I've got
He's all I've got in this world
But he's all the MAN that I need
And in the morning when I kiss his eyes
He takes me down and rocks me slow
And in the evening when the moon is high
He holds me close and won't let go
He won't let go
He fills me up
He gives me love
More love than I've ever seen
He's all I've got
He's all I've got in this world
But he's all the MAN that I need
He fills me up
He gives me love
More love than I've ever seen
He's all I've got
He's all I've got in this world
But he's all the MAN that I need
He fills me up
He gives me love
More love than I've ever seen
He's all I've got
He's all I've got in this world
But he's all the MAN that I need

Little MAN, when you stand by my side
Then I know I don't have to hide from anyone
And I pray that we'll stay just that way
'Till the day comes along when we catch the sun.
Little girl you're runnin'
Come catch my hand I'm near you
Little girl you're singin'
Come close to me I hear you
You're growin' old, my mother's cold
Now it's time that you learned what it meant to be mature
There's no such place as make believe
But when I look at your face,
I'm not so sure
Little girl you're runnin'
Come catch my hand I'm near you
Little girl you're singin'
Come close to me I hear you
You and me is what I see
And that's the way its gonna stay and it will always be
So little MAN, please understand
In this world with all its land
You're all I see
Little girl you're runnin'
Come catch my hand I'm near you
Little girl you're singin'
Come close to me I hear you
Little girl you're runnin'
Come catch my hand I'm near you
Little girl you're singin'
Come close to me I hear you

Don't know what I'm doing here
I'll carry on regardless
Got enough money for one more beer
I'll CARRY on regardless
Good as gold, but stupid as mud
He'll carry on regardless
They'll bleed his heart 'til there's no more blood
But carry on regardless
Carry on with laugh
Carry on with cry
Carry on with brown under moonlit sky
I want my love, my joy, my laugh, my smile, my needs
Not in the star signs
Or the palm that she reads
I want my sun-drenched, wind-swept Ingrid Bergman kiss
Not in the next life
I want it in this
I want it in this
Got one note to last all week
I'll carry on regardless
The hill to happiness is far too steep
I'll carry on regardless
Dried his mouth in the Memphis sun
He carried on regardless
Tried to smile and he bit his tongue
But carry on regardless
Carry on with work
Carry on with love
Carry on with cheering
Anything above
I want my love, my joy, my laugh, my smile, my needs
Not in the star signs
Or the palm that she reads
I want my sun-drenched, wind-swept Ingrid Bergman kiss
Not in the next life
I'll have it in this
I'll have it in this
I don't want silver, I just want gold
Carry on regardless
Bronze is for the sick and the old
But carry on regardless
I want my love, my joy, my laugh, my smile, my needs
Not in the star signs
Or the palm that she reads
I want my sun-drenched, wind-swept Ingrid Bergman kiss
Not in the next life
I'll have it in this
I'll have it in this
I'm in the dark, I'd like to read his mind
But I'm frightened of the things I might find
Oh, there must be something he's thinking of
to tear him away-a-ay
When I tell him that I'm falling in love
why does he say-a-ay
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices CARRY
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices CARRY
Uh-ah
I try so hard not to get upset
Because I know all the trouble I'll get
Oh, he tells me tears are something to hide
and something to fear-eh-eh
And I try so hard to keep it inside
so no one can hear
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices CARRY
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices CARRY
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices CARRY
Uh-ah
Oh!
He wants me, but only part of the time
He wants me, if he can keep me in line
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices CARRY
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices CARRY
Hush hush, shut up now, voices CARRY
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices CARRY
Hush hush, darling, she might overhear
Hush, hush - voices CARRY
He said shut up - he said shut up
Oh God can't you keep it down
Voices CARRY
Hush hush, voices CARRY

Day is night in New York City
Smoke, like water, runs inside
Steel idle trees to pity
Every living things that's died
Gonna hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Gonna sail away
Sun lights another day
Freedom on my mind
CARRY me away for the last time
Oh yeah
Life is like the coldest winter
People freeze the tears I cry
Words of hail their minds are into
I've got to crack this ice and fly
Gonna hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Gonna sail away
Sun lights another day
Freedom on my mind
CARRY me away for the last time
Gonna hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Gonna sail away
Sun lights another day
Freedom on my mind
CARRY me away for the last time

Boy, you gotta CARRY that weight
Carry that weight a long time
Boy, you gonna carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
I never give you my pillow
I only send you my invitation
And in the middle of the celebrations
I break down
Boy, you gotta carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
Boy, you gotta carry that weight
You're gonna carry that weight along time

There are whispers in the air
That tell the stories of our wildest dreams
But leave us empty in despair
But on our own, so everything is as it seems now
With the dark comes a harsher light
And you can't shake the shadow above
That's following you well into the night
Paint your face on with a smile, say to them don't worry
CARRY on just for a while, you'll get lost and hurried
Can you see it now?
That nothing's as it seems somehow
Well I woke up to the sound of silence the cars
Were cutting like knives in a fist fight
And I found you with a bottle of wine
Your head in the curtains and heart like the fourth of July
You swore and said we are not
We are not shining stars
This I know
I never said we are
Though I've never been through hell like that
I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back
If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone
CARRY on
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
CARRY on
CARRY on, CARRY on
So I met up with some friends in the edge of the night
At a bar off seventy five
And we talked and talked about how our parents will die
All our neighbors and wives
But I like to think
I can cheat it all
To make up for the times, I've been cheated on
And it's nice to know
When I was left for dead
I was found and now I don't roam these streets
I am not the ghost you want of me
If you're lost and alone or you're sinking like a stone,
CARRY on
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground and
CARRY on
Woah my head is on fire
But my legs are fine
After all they are mine
Lay your clothes down on the floor
Close the door
Hold the phone
Show me how
No one's ever gonna stop us now
'Cause we are
We are shining stars
We are invincible
We are who we are
On our darkest day
When we're miles away
So we'll come, we will find our way home
If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone
CARRY on
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground and
CARRY on

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
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond the illusion
I was soaring ever higher, but I flew too high
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreamin', I can hear them say
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
Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune, but I hear the voices say
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
CARRY on, you will always remember
CARRY on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
Surely heaven waits for you
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

The road is long, with many of winding turns
That lead us to (who knows) where, who knows where?
But I'm strong, strong enough to CARRY him - yeah
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
So long we go, his welfare is my concern
no burdon is he to bear, we'll get there
But I know he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
If I'm leaving at all, if I'm leaving with sadness
that everyone's heart isn't filled with the gladness
of love for one another.
It's a long, long road, from which there is no return
While we're on the way to there, why not share?
And the long doesn't way me down at all
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
He's my brother - he ain't heavy - he's my brother ...
Well, Billy rapped all night about his sui.cide
How he'd kick it in the head when he was twenty-five
Speed jive, don't want to stay alive
When you're twenty-five
And Wendy's stealing clothes from Marks & Sparks
And Freddy's got spots from ripping off the stars from his face
Funky little boat race
Television man is crazy saying we're juvenile delinquent wrecks
Oh, man, I need TV when I've got T.Rex
Oh brother, you guessed

Boogaloo dudes (I want to talk to you, all of you)

Lucy looks sweet 'cause he dresses like a queen
But he can kick like a mule, it's a real mean team
But we can love
Oh yes, we can love
And my brother's back at home with his Beatles and his Stones
We never got it off on that revolution stuff
What a drag, too many snags
Now I've drunk a lot of wine and I'm feeling fine
Got to race some cat to bed
Oh, is that concrete all around
Or is it in my head?
Yeah
I'm a dude, dad
All the young dudes (hey dudes)
CARRY the news (where are you?)
Boogaloo dudes (stand up)

Hold me
Like the River Jordan
And I will then say to thee
You are my friend
CARRY me
Like you are my brother
Love me like a mother
Will you be there?
When weary
Tell me will you hold me
When wrong, will you scold me
When lost will you find me?
But they told me
A man should be faithful
And walk when not able
And fight till the end
But I'm only human
Everyone's taking control of me
Seems that the world's got a role for me
I'm so confused will you show to me
You'll be there for me
And care enough to bear me

One morning I woke up and I knew
You were really gone
A new day, a new way, I knew
I should see it along
Go your way, I'll go mine
And CARRY on
The sky is clearing and the night
Has gone out
The sun, he come, the world
Is all full of love
Rejoice, rejoice, we have no choice
But to CARRY on
The fortunes of fables are able
To sing the song
Now witness the quickness with which
We get along
To sing the blues you've got to live the dues
And CARRY on
CARRY on
Love is coming
Love is coming to us all
Where are you going now, my love?
Where will you be tomorrow?
Will you bring me happiness?
Will you bring me sorrow?
Oh, the questions of a thousand dreams
What you do with what you see
Lover, can you talk to me?
Girl, when I was on my own
Chasing you down
What was it made you run?
Trying your best just to get around
The questions of a thousand dreams
What you do and what you see
Lover, can you talk to me?

Whistle down the wind
Let your voices CARRY
Drown out all the rain
Light a patch of darkness
Treacherous and scary
Howl at the stars
Whisper when you're sleepy
I'll be there you hold you
I'll be there to stop
The chills and all the weeping
Make it clear and strong
So the whole night long
Every signal that you send
Until the very end
I will not abandon you my precious friend
So try and stand the tide
Then you'll raise a banner
Send a flare up in the sky
Try to burn a torch
And try to build a bonfire
Every signal that you send
Until the very end
I'm there
So whistle down the wind
For I have always been
Right there
Oh yeah

Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I try to reach for you but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love
I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me, SOS
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me, SOS
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on
When you're gone
Though I try, how can I CARRY on
You seemed so far away, though you were standing near
You made me feel alive but something died, I fear
I really tried to make it up
I wish I understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me, SOS
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me, SOS
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on
When you're gone
Though I try, how can I CARRY on
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me, SOS
