ELVIS-always on my mind!!

Viva Las Vegas

always on my mind -did Roy Orbison sing this too?

All those lonely, lonely times

I just never took the time
If I make you feel second best 

Anyone who reads those lyrics and impliments them into their lives before it's too late and fixes their love is lucky. Cause with lyrics/lives like that most won't make it.

 

 

 

 

EVANESCENCE ~




Bring Me To Life



how can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core
where I’ve become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I’ve become

now that I know what I’m without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I’ve become

Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life

frozen inside without your touch without your love darling only you are the life among the dead

all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I’ve become

(Bring me to life)
I’ve been living a lie, there’s nothing inside
(Bring me to life)

always on my mind -did Roy Orbison sing this too?

Don't know about Roy. I always think of Willie Nelson when I hear/see it.

To All The Girls I've Loved Before/Willie Nelson

 

To all the girls I've loved before
Who travelled in and out my door
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before

To all the girls I once caressed
And may I say I've held the best
For helping me to grow
I owe a lot I know
To all the girls I've loved before

The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away

To all the girls who shared my life
Who now are someone else's wives
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before

To all the girls who cared for me
Who filled my nights with ecstasy
They live within my heart
I'll always be a part
Of all the girls I've loved before

The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away

To all the girls we've loved before
Who travelled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the girls we've loved before

To all the girls we've loved before
Who travelled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the girls we've loved before

I always think of Julio Iglesias when I hear that. 

Willie Nelson - Whiskey River Lyrics

Whiskey River, take my mind Don't let a memory talk to me Whiskey River, don't run dry You're all I got, take care of me I'm drowning in a Whiskey River Bathing my memory's mind in the wetness of its soul Feeling the amber current flowing from my mind To warm an empty heart you left so cold (Instrumental interlude) Repeat both verses 

I always think of Julio Iglesias when I hear that. 

Well, I guess when I listen to To All The Girls I've Loved Before/Julio Iglesias  I like his accent.

Ok. I wasn't aware that he did that song. But now that you mention it, it does ring a bell.

Artist: Joan Jett And The Blackhearts
Song: Long Live The Night

I go out about five
I gotta job to stay alive
Downtown I'm so lost
Every fool around me is my boss
I can't wait to get back
Leaning on your shoulder
We don't sleep you play rough
And when it comes to going down we never get enough

Long live the night
When I can hold my head up high
Long live the night
Cause I know you'll be standing by

And all day I'm just dirt
Don't get no breaks just do the work
I'm so bored I watch the clock
And when the sun is down
I finally get to stop

And I love the things that we do
You really work me over
Don't have to crawl
Life is mean
Cause you make me so tall
And I feel like a queen

Long live the night
When I can hold my head up high
Long live the night
Cause I know you'll be standing by

Long live the night
I'm in your arms and I'm all right
Long live the night
Just keep me from the morning light

You and I have dreams so sweet no one can take away
Til the day we're on our feet
Keep me going cause we got the night
And you know how to do me right

Long live the night
Long live the night
Long live the night
I'm in your arms and I'm all right
Long live the night
I'm safe until the morning light

Watch the pace car....25 seconds til the pace car!!!!!!

cole you need to be at max speed when the green drops...

ha...i know I wanted to watch this for a reason...now I'm thinkin' of CM and his nurses...hahaha

Mama take this badge from me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark too dark to see
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Mama put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That cold black cloud is comin' down
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

"You just better start sniffin' your own
rank subjugation jack 'cause it's just you
against your tattered libido, the bank and
the mortician, forever man and it wouldn't
be luck if you could get out of life alive"*
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

g-n-r version...way cool

You Wouldn't Like Me
So Jealous

theres a war inside of me,
do i cause new heartbreak to write a new broken song
do i push it down or let it run me right in to the ground feel like i wouldnt like me if i met me well i cant stop talking for fear of listening to unwelcome sound
and you havent called me in weeks
and honestly its bringing me down feel like i wouldnt like me if i met me, feel like you wouldnt like me if you met me and dont you worry theres still time
theres nothing to live for when im sleeping alone
and i wash the windows outside in hopes that the glare will bring you around
sunshine is days away, wont be saved, know all the words cant say that i'll love you forever wont say that i'll love you forever

This one is one of my fav's of theirs...

Take Me Anywhere

bright just like the stars above me,
proud just like my mother planned it,
short on all the things i dont want
full of love and longing
take me by the hand and tell me you would take me anywhere
still, cause i dont want to move a thing,
and all the things i dont want they're full of love and longing
take me by the hand and tell me you would take me anywhere
and it goes,
it's like a come on, come on to me
and it goes,
it's like a come on, come on to me
you ,
you say you dont see any part of me to love in all this mess
and i know you take the good
and all the bad that comes with me

I know I know I know

From hundreds of miles you cry like a baby
You plead with me, shout, scream
Tell me I'm staying
I know, I know, I know
I'm still your love
Back from the last place that I wanted to fake
You laugh with me, shout, scream
Now tell me you're staying
I know, I know, I know
You're still my love
The same as I love you
You'll always love me too
This love isn't good unless
It's me and you
Box after box and you're still by my side
The weather is changing
And breaking my stride
I know, I know, I know
It's just this day
House after house, just like car after car
You see club after club
And it all seems so far
I know, I know, I know
What else are we here for?
The same as I love you
You'll always love me too
This love isn't good unless
It's me and you
Stick your hands inside of my pockets
Keep them warm while I'm still here
Tell them this love hasn't changed me
Hasn't changed me at all
Last night I was writing about you
I know my screaming and shouting won't keep you
I know, I know, I know
You're still my love
I wake up to the sound of you working
You're one room right over
Stressing and loving me
I know, I know, I know
Be still my love
The same as I love you
You'll always love me too
This love isn't good unless
It's me and you
Stick your hands inside of my pockets
Keep them warm while I'm still here
Tell them this love hasn't changed me
Hasn't changed me at all
Stick your heart inside of my chest
Keep it warm here while we rest
Tell them this love hasn't changed me
Hasn't changed me at all
The same as I love you
You'll always love me too
This love isn't good unless
It's me and you
The same as I love you
You'll always love me too
This love isn't good unless
It's me and you

This is a CD that I can listen to all the way through without skipping tracks... not many I can do that with...

Where Does the Good Go

Where do you go, with your broken heart and tow?
What do you do, with the left over you?
And how do you know when to let go?
Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?
Look me in the eye and tell me you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart and tell me, you won't go
Look me in the eye and promise that no loves like our love
Look me in the heart and I'll be broken, it won't happen
It's me to believe, if it breaks the seal
I'm always thinking you would be real
Love me and I feel strong and cold
Where does the good go, where does the good go?
Where do you go, when you're in love and the world knows?
How do you live so happily, while I am sad and broken down?
What do you say it's up for grabs, now that you're on your way down?
Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?
Look me in the eye and tell me you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart and tell me, you won't go
Look me in the eye and promise that no loves like our love
Look me in the heart and I'll be broken, it won't happen
It's me to believe, if it breaks the seal
I'm always thinking you would be real
Love me and I feel strong and cold
Where does the good go, where does the good go?
Look me in the eye and tell me you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart and tell me, you won't go
Look me in the eye and promise that no loves like our love
Look me in the heart and I'll be broken, it won't happen
It's me to believe, if it breaks the seal
I'm always thinking you would be real
Love me and I feel strong and cold
Where does the good go, where does the good go?
It's me to believe, if it breaks the seal
I'm always thinking you would be real
Love me and I feel strong and cold
Where does the good go, where does the good go?
Where does the good go, where does the good go?
Where does the good go, where does the good go?
Look me in the eye and tell me you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart and tell me, you won't go
Look me in the eye and promise that no loves like our love
Look me in the heart and I'll be broken, it won't happen
background: Where does the good go, where does the good go?
Where does the good go, where does the good go?

So Jealous

I don't want to be, part of the problem
I try so hard, to get roughed up
Fists on up, its looks that easy
Looks that way to me, looks that way to you
But then theres you, telling me I can
But then theres you, screaming say something
I want the ocean right now, I want the ocean right now
I get so jealous, that I cant even work
I get so jealous, that I cant even work
There I am in the morning, I dont like what I see
There I am in the morning, I dont like what I see
I dont know how, its become such a problem
Keep you up all night if I, try to remain calm
How can they ask, why I feel so angry,
do you see my problem, if I never explain it
But then theres you, asking how long,
say something, its taking me so long
I want the ocean right now, I want the ocean right now
I get so jealous, that I cant even work
I get so jealous, that I cant even work
I get so jealous, that I cant even work
I get so jealous, that I cant even work
There I am in the morning, I dont like what I see
There I am in the morning, I dont like what I see

 

 

 

If you could only see
~ Tonic

If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me

Well you got your reasons
And you got your lies
And you got your manipulations
They cut me down to size

Sayin’ you love but you don’t
You give your love but you won’t

If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me

Seems the road less traveled
Show’s happiness unraveled
And you got to take a little dirt
To keep what you love
That’s what you gotta do

Sayin’ you love but you don’t
You give your love but you won’t
You’re stretching out your arms to something that’s just not there
Sayin’ you love where you stand
Give your heart when you can

If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me

Sayin’ you love but you don’t
You give your love but you won’t
Sayin’ you love where you stand
Give your heart when you can

If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me

Artist: The Mamas And The Papas Lyrics
Song: Monday, Monday Lyrics

Monday Monday, so good to me,
Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be
Oh Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening you would still be here with me.

Monday Monday, can't trust that day,
Monday Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way
Oh Monday morning, you gave me no warning of what was to be
Oh Monday Monday, how you could leave and not take me.

Every other day, every other day,
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
You can find me cryin' all of the time

Monday Monday, so good to me,
Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be
Oh Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening you would still be here with me.

Every other day, every other day,
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
You can find me cryin' all of the time

Monday Monday, ...

My brother Bill runs a still on the hill
Where he turns out a gallon or two
And the buzzards in the sky get so drunk they can not fly
Just from sniffing that good old mountain dew.

Chorus
They call it that good old mountan dew,
And them that refuse it are few.
I'll hush up my mug if you'll fill up my jug
With that good old mountain dew.

My aunt Lucille had an automobile,
It ran on a gallon or two.
It didn't need no gas and it didn't need no oil,
It just ran on that good old mountain dew.

Repeat chorus

My uncle Mort, he is sawed off and short,
He measure 'bout four foot two,
But he thinks he's a giant when you give him a pint
Of that good old mountain dew.

Repeat chorus

Old Auntie June had a brand new perfume,
It had such a wonderful "pew"
But to her surprise, when she had it analyzed,
It was nothing but that good old mountain dew

Repeat chorus

I know a guy named Pete, his hair ain't so neat,
Though he fixes it with syrup and blue,
But it stays right in place when he uses just a trace
Of that good old mountain dew.

Repeat chorus

The preacher-he walked by, with a big tear in his eye
Said that his wife had the flu
And hadn't I ought just to give him a quart
Of that good old mountain dew

Repeat chorus

My uncle Klaus had a real mean old mouse
When they asked how it happened,
He said it was a lappin'
That good old mountain dew

Repeat chorus

There's an old hollow tree, just a little way from me
Where you lay down a dollar or two
If you hush up your mug, then they'll give you a jug
Of that good old mountain dew

Repeat chorus

You take a little trash and you mix it up with ash,
And you throw in the soul of a shoe,
Then you stir it awhile with an old rusty file,
And they call it that good old mountain dew.

Repeat chorus

During the last war, we couldn't get no more,
We didn't have no sugar for the dew
With a few old potaters and a few ripe tomaters,
We turned out some stuff, I'm tellin' you

Repeat chorus

Old Deacon Crane took a trip in the rain,
Said his wife had come down with the flu,
But she'll be all right if you give her a pint
Of that good old mountain dew.

Repeat chorus

Mr. Franklin Roosevelt, he told me how he felt
The day the old dry law went through:
If your likker's too red, it will swell up your head
Better stick to that good old mountain dew

It'll tickle yore innards!

And I've been paying someone big bucks to do that all this time. Damn!

Ewwwww!

Wow-a song from THX that I like the lyrics too- cool- thanks

 

This is what came to mind when I saw THX's post though

 

Foghat - Slow Ride

Slow ride, take it easy - Slow ride, take it easy,
Slow ride, take it easy - Slow ride, take it easy.

I'm in the mood, the rhythm is right,
Move to the music, we can roll all night.
Ooh, ooh, slow ride - ooh, ooh

Slow ride, take it easy
Slow ride, take it easy

Slow ride, take it easy - Slow ride, take it easy
Slow down, go down, got to get your lovin' one more time
Hold me, roll me, slow ridin' woman you're so fine

Woo!

I'm in the mood, the rhythm is right,
Move to the music yea, we can roll all night, yea.
Ooh, ooh

Slow ride, take it easy - Slow ride, take it easy
Slow down, go down, got to get your lovin' one more time
Hold me, roll me, slow ridin' woman you're so fine

Slow ride, easy, slow ride
Slow ride, easy, slow ride

TRICK PONY LYRICS

Big River
(Johnny Cash)

Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry cry cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die

I met her accidentally in St. Paul (Minnesota)
And it tore me up ev'ry time I heard her drawl, Southern Drawl
Then I heard my dream was back downstream cavortin' in Davenport
And I followed you, Big River, when you called

Then you took me to St. Louis later on (down the river)
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone
I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the bluff
She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone

Well I pulled into Naches next day down the river
But there wasn't that much to make to stay very long
But when I left it was rainin' so nobody saw me cry
Big River why you doin' me this way

Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge, River Queen, Roll it on
Take that woman on down to New Orleans, New Orleans
Go on, I've had enough, dump my blues down in the gulf
She loves you, Big River, more than me

HA! you remembered!

I'm like an elephant....

Mississippi River Lyrics
Artist(Band):Janis Joplin

Ready ?

Well, I'm going down that Mississippi River,
Yes, I am, yes I am.
Well, I'm going down that Mississippi River,
Yes, I am, yes I am.
Yes I am, boy, yes I am.

Well, I'm goin' on that big Belle Louise,
Yes, I am, yes I am.
Well, I'm going on that big Belle Louise,
Yes, I am, yes I am.
Yes I am, boy, yes I am.

Oh man, where are you gonna catch your river
Catch me tryin', you catch me tryin'.
Oh man, where are you gonna catch your river
You catch me tryin', you catch me tryin'.
You catch me tryin', boys, you catch me tryin'.

Man, will your daughter take on me ?
Well, I don't know, I don't know.
Oh man, will your daughter take on me ?
I don't know, I don't know.
I don't know, boy, I don't know.

Well, I'm going down that Mississippi River,
Yes, I am, yes I am.
Well, I'm going down that Mississippi River,
Yes, I am, yes I am.
Yes I am, boy, yes I am.

Seeing those riverboat lights glisten on the Mississippi River was amazing and unforgetable! I WILL be doing that again. It was one of the highlights of the evening.

Great Mississippi

Born everyday at Itasca
Over Saint Anthony Falls
She rolls through the heart of this country
She rolls through the hearts of us all

Chorus
She's the Great Mississippi
She's a winding road
Every turn, every bend
Will bring you back again
For a story told

She is a wide-shouldered river
Taking the Rockies high mountain snow
And the soft spring rains of Virginia
Along with her as she goes

Rolling over Saint Peter Sandstone
Twisting down Glenwood Shale
Bearing down on Platteville Limestone
For 12,000 years she's been there

She's the "Rio Escondido"
The "Sassagoula", the "Mee-zee-see-bee"
She has a river of names from her people
Twenty-four-hundred miles to the sea

Mississippi Queen, If you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, She taught me everything
Way down around Crosby, Around Hidden Falls way
Lived a cajun lady, Aboard the Mississippi Queen
You know she was a dancer
She moved better on wine

While the rest of them dudes were'a gettin' their kicks,
Boy I beg your pardon, I was getting mine

Mississippi Queen, If you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, She taught me everything
This lady she asked me, If I would be her man
You know that I told her, I'd do what I can
To keep her looking pretty
Buy her dresses that shine

While the rest of them dudes were making their bread
Boy I beg your pardon, I was losing mine

In honor of the JP/QR show coming up on 6/1:

There I was completely wasting, out of work and down
All inside it’s so frustrating as I drift from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
So I might as well begin to put some action in my life

Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
 


So much for the golden future, I can’t even start
I’ve had every promise broken, there’s anger in my heart
You don’t know what it’s like, you don’t have a clue
If you did you’d find yourselves doing the same thing too

Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

You don’t know what it’s like

Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the lawThere I was completely wasting, out of work and down
All inside it’s so frustrating as I drift from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
So I might as well begin to put some action in my life

Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

So much for the golden future, I can’t even start
I’ve had every promise broken, there’s anger in my heart
You don’t know what it’s like, you don’t have a clue
If you did you’d find yourselves doing the same thing too

Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

You don’t know what it’s like

Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law

 

 

 

 

High Enough


Damn Yankees


I don't want to hear about it anymore,
It's a shame I've got to live without you anymore.
There's a fire in my heart,
A pounding in my brain, it's driving me crazy.

We don't need to talk about it anymore.
Yesterday's just a memory; can we close the door?
I just made one mistake,
I didn't know what to say when you called me baby.

Don't say goodnight,
Say you're gonna stay forever,
Oh, whoa, all the way.

Can you take me high enough
to fly me over yesterday?
Can you take me high enough?
It's never over and yesterday's just a memory,
Yesterday's just a memory.

And I don't want to live without you anymore.
Can't you see I'm in misery?
And you know for sure
I would live and die for you
And I'd know just what to do when you call me baby.

Don't say goodbye
Say you're gonna stay forever,
Oh, whoa, all the way.

Can you take me high enough
Can you fly me over yesterday?
Can you take me high enough?
It's never over and yesterday's just a memory.

I was running
I was running for the door
Realizing now or never
I was running back for more
Oo, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Don't say goodbye
Say you're gonna stay forever,
Oh, whoa, all the way, all the way,
Come all the way, yeah.

Can you take me high enough
Can you fly me over yesterday?
Can you take me high enough?
It's never over, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Can you take me high enough
Won't you fly me over yesterday?
Can you take me high enough?
It's never over, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Damn Yankees
Don't Tread on Me Lyrics

Written by Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades, Ted Nugent

Freedom rider
On a midnight cruise
On my way
I got nothing to lose
Sister mercy
Gonna take my hand
Lead me over
To the promised land
But you'd better not
Set your sights on me
'Cause it just might spoil your victory
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you try
And make some fool of me
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
We walked the gound
Of ancient ones
Lit the fire
With a rising sun
You and me
We got a full on rage
Won't ge fooled
No I won't be caged
Make love not war
Was you claim to fame
Now you're takin' me down
Well I won't be tamed
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you try
And make some fool of me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you dare
Don't you tread on me
Don't you tread on me
Don't you dare forget your history
Don't you tread on me
