DEAD SKUNK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD - LOUDEN WAINWRIGHT

Phew.

Lets try this... it's an old traditional bluegrass/country swing song if that helps. Lots of people did it. So artist doesn't matter, just the song title.

"Rather be in Richmond with all the hail and rain
Than to be in Georgia boys wearin' that ball and chain.

Won't get drunk no more
Won't get drunk no more
Won't get drunk no more
Way down the [song title]"

Yes sir, you are it. I have no idea who did this song first, but all the bluegrass/mountain music/country swing bands that I have seen around here do it, so I would think it came from there.

Get up, get out, get out of the door
Your playin cold music on the barroom floor
Drowned in your laughter and dead to the core.
There's a dragon with matches that's loose on the town
Takes a whole pail of water just to cool him down.

Fire on the mountain.....Grateful Dead


With a little love, and some tenderness
We'll walk upon the water
We'll rise above this mess
With a little peace, and some harmony
We'll take the world together
We'll take 'em by the hand

Been a while since I've heard hootie sing Hold My Hand, or any other song.



My head is saying "fool, forget him"
My heart is saying "don't let go"
Hold on to the end, that's what I intend to do

I'm "hopelessly devoted" to you...
Olivia Newton John, early I think. Maybe others.

The silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload
And nobody's gonna go to school today,
She's gonna make them stay at home

I Don't Like Mondays - Boomtown Rats

She is like a cat in the dark
And then she is the darkness
She rules her life like a fine skylark
And when the sky is starless

Rhiannon- Fleetwood Mac

Catholic Scoolgirls have thrown away their mascara,
They chain themselves to the axles of big Mack trucks.
The sky is filled with herds of shivering angels
The fat lady laughs "Gentlemen, start your trucks!"

Joan Crawford – Blue Oyster Cult.


Here’s mine:

See, I love to spend my days just a squirrel huntin'
Go, see my cousin Ellie May and get some good lovin'
Kissin' and huggin' on some distant lands
People always tell me, I'm a twisted man

Here's an easy one....


I'm waking up to ash and dust
I wipe my brow and I sweat my rust
I'm breathing in the chemicals

This light is pit, alive and I can see you clear
I could take your hand, and feel your breath
For feel that someday this will be over
I pull you close, so much to lose

Lights? Sirens? Pearl Jam? I dunno, I'm just guessing, I'm really not a Pearl Jam fan.
