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!
Well, I dreamed I saw the knights in armor come
Sayin' somethin' about me
There were children singin' and drummers drummin'
The archer split the tree
There was a fanfare blowin' to the sun
That floated on the breeze
We got mother nature on the run, in the nineteen seventies
Look at mother nature on the run, in the nineteen seventies
I was lyin' in a burnt out basement
With the full moon in my eye
I was hopin' for a replacement
When the sun burst through the sky
There was a band playin' in my head
And I felt like getting high
Thinkin' about what a friend had said, I was hopin' it was a lie
Thinkin' about what a friend had said, I was hopin' it was a lie
Well, I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships flyin'
In the yellow haze of the sun
There were children cryin' and colors flyin'
All around the chosen ones
All in a dream, all in a dream the loadin' had begun
We were flyin' mother nature's silver seed to a new home in the sun
Flyin' mother nature's silver seed to a new home

Finger Eleven--Living in a dream
I was never the kind
To be taking my time
Any place that's worth a damn
And today's another day
That i've gone and thrown away
And i don't care where it lands
Cause i'm just thinking about us
I've been living in a dream about you
And now i know
You were all i ever wanted on my mind
And if i never see
My own reality
Well i'm okay to leave it all behind
DREAMER, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said DREAMER, you're nothing but a DREAMER
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said "far out, what a day, a year, a life it is!"
You know, well you know, you had it comin' to you
Now, there's not a lot I can do
DREAMER, you stupid little DREAMER
So now you put your head in your hands, oh no
I said, "far out, what a day, a year, a life it is!"
You know, well you know, you had it comin' to you
Now, there's not a lot I can do
Work it out someday
Oh ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
you can see anything you want, boy
(If I could be someone) you can be anyone, celebrate, boy
you can do something
(If I could do anything) but can you do something out of this world?
Take a DREAM on a sunday
Take a life, take a holiday

No more timing
Each tear that falls from my eyes
I'm not hiding
The remedy to cure this old heart of mine
I can DREAM about you
If I can't hold you tonight
I can DREAM about you
You know how to hold me just right
I can DREAM about you
If I can't hold you tonight
I can DREAM about you
You know how to hold me just right
Moving sidewalks
I don't see under my feet
Climbing up from
Down here below where the streets sees me lonely for you
I can DREAM about you
If I can't hold you tonight
I can DREAM about you
You know how to hold me just right
I can DREAM about you
I'm gonna press my lips against you and hold you to me
I can DREAM about you
You know you got me spellbound what else can it be
Moving sidewalks
I don't see under my feet
Climbing up from
The pain in my heart 'cause it's you that I need
I can DREAM!
I can DREAM!
Yes, I can DREAM!
I don't understand it
I can't keep my mind off loving you (not even for a minute)
Ooh, now baby, I'm caught up in the magic I see in you
There's one thing to do
I can DREAM about you
If I can't hold you tonight
I can DREAM about you
You know how to hold me just right
I can DREAM about you
If I can't hold you tonight
I can DREAM about you
I can DREAM
I can DREAM
I can DREAM about you
I can DREAM about you
I can DREAM about you

Runnin' down a dream
It was a beautiful day
The sun beat down
I had the radio on
I was drivin'
Trees went by
Me and Del were singin'
Little runaway, i was flyin'
Yeah runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery
Goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream

As we eye
The blue horizon's bend
Earth and sky
Appear to meet and end
But it's merely an illusion
Like your heart and mine
There is no sweet conclusion
I can see
No matter how near you'll be
You'll never belong to me
But I can dream
Can't I
Can't I pretend
That I'm locked in the bend
Of your embrace
For dreams
Are just like wine
And I am drunk
With mine
I'm aware
My heart is a sad affair
There's much disillusion there
But I can dream
Can't I
Can't I adore you
Although we are oceans apart
I can't make you open your heart
But I can dream
Can't I
Can't I pretend
That I'm locked in the bend
Of your embrace
For dreams
Are just like wine
And I am drunk
With mine
I'm aware
My…
I've just closed my eyes again
Climbed aboard the DREAM weaver train
Driver take away my worries of today
And leave tomorrow behind
Oh DREAM weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Oh DREAM weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light
Fly me high through the starry skies
Maybe to an astral plane
Cross the highways of fantasy
Help me to forget today's pain
Oh DREAM weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Oh DREAM weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light
Though the dawn may be coming soon
There still may be some time
Fly me away to the bright side of the moon
And meet me on the other side
Oh DREAM weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Oh DREAM weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light
DREAM weaver

What can I say? He's walking away from what we've seen
What can I do? Still loving you, it's all a dream
How can we hang on to a dream?
How can it really be the way it seems?
What can I do? He's saying we're through with how it was
What will I try? I still don't see why, he says what he does
How can we hang on to a dream?
How can it really be the way it seems?
What can I say? He's walking away from what we've seen
What can I do? Still loving you, it's all a dream
How can we hang on to a dream?
How can it really be the way it seems?
How can we hang on to a dream?
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by, like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got the dues in life to pay
I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life
Is books, written pages
Live and learn from fools and
From sages
You know it's true, oh
All these feelings come back to you
Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Yeah, sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Dream on
Dream on
Dream…
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
The first time I heard this Tim Hardin song - Hang On to a Dream - it was The Nice, from the LP 'Elegy'

It's a bit long (12 Mins), and turns into an improvised instrumental. Good, though!
RIP Keith Emerson
Psst, hey, come on man, wake up
Yeah
I see the power changin' hands
Risin' from the streets
A self-made businessman
Knows how the system can be beat
Oh, we're the lost generation
Have no place to go
The road to destruction
Is all we need to know
'Cause it's a rip-off
We're stepped on and cheated
We're flat stone cold lied to
We're not defeated, no
It's ah, easy money
It's a way out
Join the family
No middleman, no IRS
Your ticket out of poverty
Oh, we're the lost generation
I hold fate from a string
Lookin' for a direction
Reachin' out for anything
So, dream another dream
This dream is over
Dream another dream
This dream is over
Dream another dream
This dream is over
Over, yeah
So dream another dream
Ow
Ow, it's a rip-off
Stepped on and cheated
Flat stone cold lied to
We're not defeated, no
Dream another dream
This dream is over
Dream another dream
This dream is over, over (dream another dream)
Dream another dream
This dream is over, oh
Dream another dream
This dream is over, over, yeah (dream another dream)
Dream another dream
Dream another dream
Dream another dream
Oh, this dream is over (dream another dream)
Dream another dream (dream another dream)

I wake up laughing, thrown from a nightmare.
I come down standing when I'm tossed in the air.
Bright as Tiajuana.
Like a dose of Bella Donna.
I could cry but I don't wanna.
And the dream's lost on me.
I come out shootin' when trouble comes knockin'.
I greet bad news by sending it walkin'.
Happy or just crazy.
Relaxed or laxy.
Gonna keep my vision hazy.
And the dream's lost on me.
Cares are all buckshot and buffalo.
Every dark has an afterglow.
I'm not afraid of what's down below.
I keep my sights on the sky.
I wake up laughing, thrown from a nightmare.
I come down standing when I'm tossed in the air.
Bright as Tiajuana.
Like a dose of Bella Donna.
I could cry but I don't wanna.
And the dream's lost on me.
I come out shootin' when trouble comes knockin'.
I greet bad news by sending it walkin'.
Happy or just crazy.
Relaxed or laxy.
I'm gonna keep my vision hazy.
And the dream's lost on me.

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
And to run where
The brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
And to love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march,
March into hell
For that heavenly cause
And I know
If I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart
Will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be
Better for this
That one man, scorned
And covered with scars,
Still strove with his last
Ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable,
The unreachable,
The unreachable star
And I'll always dream
The impossible dream
Yes, and I'll reach
The unreachable star
Word of the day for Saturday--NIGHT
I was a little too tall
Could've used a few pounds
Tight pants points hardly reknown
She was a black haired beauty with big dark eyes
And points all her own sitting way up high
Way up firm and high
Out past the cornfields where the woods got heavy
Out in the back seat of my '60 Chevy
Workin' on mysteries without any clues
Workin' on our night moves
Trying' to make some front page drive-in news
Workin' on our night moves in the summertime
In the sweet summertime
We weren't in love oh no far from it
We weren't searching for some pie in the sky summit
We were just young and restless and bored
Living by the sword
And we'd steal away every chance we could
To the backroom, the alley, the trusty woods
I used her she used me
But neither one cared
We were getting our share
Workin' on our night moves
Trying to lose the awkward teenage blues
Workin' on out night moves
In the summertime
And oh the wonder
Felt the lightning
And we waited on the thunder
Waited on the thunder
I woke last night to the sound of thunder
How far off I sat and wondered
Started humming a song from 1962
Ain't it funny how the night moves
When you just don't seem to have as much to lose
Strange how the night moves
With autumn closing in

She was a fast machine
She kept her motor clean
She was the best damn woman I had ever seen
She had the sightless eyes
Telling me no lies
Knockin' me out with those American thighs
Taking more than her share
Had me fighting for air
She told me to come but I was already there
'Cause the walls start shaking
The earth was quaking
My mind was aching
And we were making it and you
Shook me all NIGHT long
Yeah you shook me all night long
Working double time
On the seduction line
She was one of a kind, she's just mine all mine
Wanted no applause
Just another course
Made a meal out of me and came back for more
Had to cool me down
To take another round
Now I'm back in the ring to take another swing
'Cause the walls were shaking
The earth was quaking
My mind was aching
And we were making it and you
Shook me all night long
Yeah you shook me all night long
And knocked me out and then you
Shook me all night long
You had me shakin' and you
Shook me all night long
Yeah you shook me
Well you took me
You really took me and you
Shook me all night long
Oh you
Shook me all night long
Yeah, yeah, you
Shook me all night long
You really took me and you
Yeah you shook me, yeah you shook me
All night long
Lush--Ladykillers
Here we go, i'm hanging out in Camden
Drinking with my girlfriends
On a Saturday night
This guy says "come and meet my girlfriend"
She's sitting in the corner
Looking rather uptight
So i say hello
And i try to be nice
But i see he's feeling itchy
Trying to play us off each other
"Girls, girls please don't fight"
(You get the picture)
Hey you, the muscles and the long hair
Telling me that women are superior to men
Most guys just don't appreciate this
You just try convincing me
You're better than them
So he talks for hours
About his sensitive soul
And his favorite subject is sex
I don't even think he really wanted it
But christ this guy's too much
(I wanna tell him)
I'm as human as the next girl
I like a bit of flattery
But i don't need your practiced lines
Your school of charm mentality
So save your breath for someone else
And credit me with something more
When it comes to men like you
I know the score
I've heard it all before
(Here comes the next one)
Blondie was with me for a summer
He flirted like maniac
But i wouldn't bite
I'm weak, and he was so persistent
He only had to have me
Cause i put up a fight
Oh god, the boy has such an ego
He liked to talk about himself
All day and all night
You think you're such a ladykiller
But you were nothing special
'til you turned out the lights
When he's nice to me
He's just nice to himself
And he's watching his reflection
I'm a 5 foot mirror for adoring himself
Here's seven years bad luck
(I wanna tell him)
When you say you love me
You're just flattering your vanity
But i don't need your practiced lines
Your school of charm mentality
So save your breath for someone else
And credit me with something more
When it comes to men like you
I know the score
I've heard it all before
Ooh you're such a ladykiller
Always on a winner
Thinking that you're in there
Oh boy, you're such a ladykiller
Super sexy mister
Call it what you will
Oh you think you're such a ladykiller
I just bet you're still there
Posing in the mirror
Hey girls he's a such ladykiller
But we know where he's coming from
And we know the score
Take me now baby here as I am
Pull me close try an understand
I work all day out in the hot sun
Stay with me now till the mornin' comes
Come on now try and understand
The way I feel when I'm in your hands
Take me now as the sun descends
They can't hurt you now
They can't hurt you now
They can't hurt you now
Because the NIGHT belongs to lovers
Because the NIGHT belongs to us
Because the NIGHT belongs to lovers
Because the NIGHT belongs to us
What I got I have earned
What I'm not I have learned
Desire and hunger is the fire I breathe
Just stay in my bed till the morning comes
Come on now try and understand
The way I feel when I'm in your hands
Take me now as the sun descends
They can't hurt you now
They can't hurt you now
They can't hurt you now
Because the NIGHT
Your love is here and now
The vicious circle turns and burns without
Though I cannot live forgive me now
The time has come to take this moment and
They can't hurt you now
Because the NIGHT
Songwriters: Bruce Springsteen / Patti Smith
As you might notice, the song was cowritten but I prefer Patti's version.

It was a night oh oh what a night
It was it really was such a night
The moon was bright oh how so bright
It was it really was such a night
The night was alight with stars above
Oh oh when she kissed me
I had to fall in love
Oh it was a kiss oh oh what a kiss
It was it really was such a kiss
Oh how she could kiss oh what a kiss
It was it really was such a kiss
Just the thought of her lips
Sets me afire
I reminisce and I'm filled with desire
But I'd gave my heart to her in sweet surrender
How well I remember, I'll always remember
Oh, what a night oh oh what a night
It was it really was such a night
Came the dawn and my heart and her love
And the night was gone
But I'll never forget the kiss
The kiss in the moonlight
Oh oh such a kiss, such a night
It was a night oh oh what a night
It was it really was such a night
Came the dawn and my heart and her love
And the night was gone
But I'll never forget the kiss
The kiss in the moonlight
How well I remember, I'll always remember
That night oh oh what a night
It was it really was such a night
When we kissed I had to fall in love
But I'd gave my heart to her in sweet surrender
How well I remember, I'll always remember
Oh that night oh oh what a night
It was it really was such a night
When we kissed I had to fall in love
Well she's gone, gone, gone
Yes she's gone, gone, gone
Came the dawn, dawn, dawn
And my love was gone
But before that dawn
Yes before that dawn and before that dawn
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Such a night

Listen to the ground
There is movement all around
There is something goin' down
And I can feel it
On the waves of the air
There is dancin' out there
If it's somethin' we can share
We can steal it
And that sweet city woman
She moves through the light
Controlling my mind and my soul
When you reach out for me
Yeah, and the feelin' is right
Then I get night fever, NIGHT fever
We know how to do it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to show it
Here I am
Prayin' for this moment to last
Livin' on the music so fine
Borne on the wind
Makin' it mine
Night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to show it
In the heat of our love
Don't need no help for us to make it
Gimme just enough to take us to the mornin'
I got fire in my mind
I get higher in my walkin'
And I'm glowin' in the dark
I give you warnin'
And that sweet city woman
She moves through the night
Controlling my mind and my soul
When you reach out for me
Yeah, and the feelin' is right
Then I get night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to show it
Here I am
Prayin' for this moment to last
Livin' on the music so fine
Borne on the wind
Makin' it mine
Night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to show it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to show it
Gimme that night fever, night fever
We know how to do it

Oh, what a NIGHT
Late December back in '63
What a very special time for me
As I remember, what a NIGHT
Oh, what a NIGHT, you know I didn't even know her name
But I was never gonna be the same
What a lady, what a NIGHT
Oh, I, I got a funny feelin' when she walked in the room
Oh my, as I recall it ended much too soon
Oh what a night, hypnotizin' mesmerizing me
She was ev'rything I dreamed she'd be
Sweet surrender, what a NIGHT
I felt a rush like a rollin' ball of thunder
Spinnin' my head around n' takin' my body under
Oh, what a NIGHT
Oh, I, I got a funny feelin' when she walked in the room
Oh my, as I recall it ended much too soon
Oh, what a NIGHT
Why'd it take so long to see the light
Seemed so wrong, but now it seems so right
What a lady, what a NIGHT
I felt a rush like a rollin' ball of thunder
Spinnin' my head around n' takin' my body under
Oh what a NIGHT
Oh what a NIGHT
Oh what a NIGHT
Oh what a NIGHT

Believe me when I tell you
I will try to understand
Believe me when I tell you
I could never kill a man
But to know that another man's holding you tight
Hurts me, little darling
Thru the morning thru the night
The bond has been broken
The promise you gave
The words that were spoken
I can not be your slave
But to know that the trust you had in me is gone
Hurts me, little darling
Through the nighttime through the dawn
I dreamed just last night you were there by my side
Your sweet loving tenderness
Easing my pride
But then I awoke and found you not there
It was just my old memory of how much I care
Believe me when I tell you
I will try to understand
Believe me when I tell you
I could never kill a man
But to know that another man's holding you tight
Hurts me little, darling
Through the morning through the night

You know you shook me. You shook me all night long.
You know you shook me, baby. You shook me all night long.
You shook me so hard, baby. Baby, baby, please come home.
I have a bird that whistles and I have birds that sing.
I have a bird that whistles and I have birds that sing.
I have a babe, won't do nothing... oh, oh, buy a diamond ring.
You know you shook me, babe. You shook me all night long.
I know you really, really did, babe.
I said you shook me, baby. You shook me all night long.
You shook me so hard, baby.
Babe, you shook me all, all, all, all, all, all, all, all night long.

Like the beat, beat, beat of the tom tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick, tick, tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip, drip, drip of the raindrops
When the summer show'are is through
So a voice within me keeps repeating
You, you, you
Night and day
You are the one
Only you 'neath the moon
Or under the sun
Whether near to me or far
No matter, darling where you are
I think of you
Night and day
Day and night
Why it is so
That this longing for you
Follows wherever I go
In the roarin' traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Night and day
Night and day
Under the hide of me
There's an oh such a hungry
Yearnin' burnin' inside of me
And it's torment won't be through
'Til you let me spend my life
Making love to you
Day and night
Night and day

Night And Day lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc, Red Brick Music Publishing
I'm coming down, coming down like a monkey
But it's alright
Like a load on your back that you can't see
Oh, but it's alright
Try to shake it loose, cut it free
Just let it go, just get it away from me, oh
'Cause tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
I'm going down, going down like a monkey
Ooh, but it's alright
Try to pick yourself up
Carry that weight that you can't see
But don't you know it's alright
It's like a helter skelter
Going down and down, round and round
But just get it away from me, oh
Because tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
We're gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
I got some money in my pocket
About ready to burn
I don't remember where I got it
I gotta get it to you
So please answer the phone
'Cause I keep calling but you're never home
What am I gonna do
Tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
You keep telling me I've got everything
You say I've got everything I want
You keep telling me you're gonna help me
You're gonna help me, but you don't
But now I'm in too deep
You see it's got me so that I just can't sleep
Ooh, get me out of here, please get me out of here
Just help me, I'll do anything, anything
If you'll just help me get out of here
I'm coming down, coming down like a monkey
Ooh, but it's alright
It's like a load on your back that you can't see
Ooh, don't you know that it's alright
Just try to shake it loose, cut it free
Let it go, but just get it away from me, oh
'Cause tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
Maybe we'll make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
Please get me out of here
Just someone get me out of here
Just help me I'll do anything, anything
If you'll just help get me out of here
Tonight, oh, I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
Yes, tonight, tonight, tonight, oh
Yes, I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight, oh

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord
Well if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before my friend, but I don't know if you know who I am
Well I was there and I saw what you did, I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord
Well I remember, I remember, don't worry, how could I ever forget
It's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, oh no you don't fool me
Well the hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you and me
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord

Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar,
You're gonna go far,
You're gonna fly high,
You're never gonna die,
You're gonna make it if you try,
They're gonna love you.
I've always had a deep respect and I mean that most sincere;
The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think,
Oh, by the way, which one's Pink?
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it "Riding The Gravy TRAIN".
We're just knocked out.
We heard about the sell out.
You're gonna get an album out,
You owe it to the people.
We're so happy we can hardly count.
Everybody else is just green,
Have you seen the chart?
It's a hell of a start,
It could be made into a monster,
If we all pull together as a team.
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it "Riding The Gravy TRAIN".

Outside another yellow moon
Has punched a hole in the night time mist
I climb through the window and down to the street
I'm shining like a new dime
The downtown trains are full
Full of all them Brooklyn girls
They try so hard to break out of their little worlds
You wave your hand and they scatter like crows
They have nothing that'll ever capture your heart
They're just thorns without the rose
Be careful of them in the dark
Oh if I was the one
You chose to be your only one
Oh baby
Can't you hear me now
Can't you hear me now
Will I see you tonight
On a downtown train
Every night, every night
It's just the same
On a downtown train
I know your window and I know it's late
I know your stairs and your doorway
I walk down your street and past your gate
I stand by the light of the four way
And watch them as they fall, oh baby
They all having their heart attacks
They stay at the carnival
But they'll never win you back
Will I see you tonight
On a downtown train
Every night, every night
It's just the same
You leave me lonely
Will I see you tonight
On a downtown train
All my dreams, all my dreams
Fall like rain
On a downtown train
Will I see you tonight
On a downtown train
Every night, every night
It's just the same
Will I see you tonight
On a downtown train
All my dreams, all my dreams
Fall like rain
On a downtown train
On a downtown train
All my dreams fall like rain
On a downtown train
Ooh ooh, ooh oooh
Ooh ooh
Looking at the world
Through the sunset in your eyes
Trying to make the TRAIN
Through clear Moroccan skies
Ducks and pigs and chickens call
Animal carpet wall to wall
American ladies five foot tall in blue.
Sweeping cobwebs from the edges of my mind
Had to get away to see what we could find
Hope the days that lie ahead
Bring us back to where they've led
Listen not to what's been said to you
Would you know we're riding
On the Marrakesh Express
Would you know we're riding
On the Marrakesh Express
All on board that TRAIN
I've been saving all my money just to take you there
I smell the garden in your hair
Take the TRAIN from Casablanca going south
Blowing smoke rings from the corners of my my, my, my, my mouth
Colored cottons hang in air
Charming cobras in the square
Striped Djellebas we can wear at home
Don't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express
Don't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express
They're taking me to Marrakesh Express
Don't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express
Don't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express
They're taking me to Marrakesh
All on board that TRAIN
All on board that TRAIN

There's a Spanish train that runs between
Guadalquivir and old Saville
And at dead of night the whistle blows
And people hear she's running still
And then they hush their children back to sleep
Lock the doors, upstairs they creep
For it is said that the souls of the dead
Fill that train ten thousand deep
Well a railwayman lay dying with his people by his side
His family were crying, knelt in prayer before he died
But above his bed just a waiting for the dead
Was the Devil with a twinkle in his eye
Well God's not around and look what I've found, this one's mine
Just then the Lord himself appeared in a blinding flash of light
And shouted at the Devil, get thee hence to endless night
But the Devil just grinned and said I may have sinned
But there's no need to push me around
I got him first so you can do your worst
He's going underground
But I think I'll give you one more chance
Said the Devil with a smile
So throw away that stupid lance
It's really not your style
Joker is the name, poker is the game
We'll play right here on this bed
And then we'll bet for the biggest stakes yet
The souls of the dead
And I said look out, Lord, He's going to win
The sun is down and the night is riding in
That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line
Oh Lord, He's going to win
Well the railwayman he cut the cards
And he dealt them each a hand of five
And for the Lord, he was praying hard
Or that train he'd have to drive
Well the Devil he had three aces and a king
And the Lord, he was running for a straight
He had the queen and the knave and nine and ten of spades
All he needed was the eight
And then the Lord he called for one more card
But he drew the diamond eight
And the Devil said to the son of God
I believe you've got it straight
So deal me one for the time has come
To see who'll be the king of this place
But as he spoke, from beneath his cloak
He slipped another ace
Ten thousand souls was the opening bid
And it soon went up to fifty nine
But the Lord didn't see what the Devil did
And he said that suits me fine
I'll raise you high to a hundred and five
And forever put an end to your sins
But the Devil let out a mighty shout, my hand wins
And I said Lord, oh Lord, you let him win
The sun is down and the night is riding in
That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line
Oh Lord, don't let him win
Well that Spanish train still runs between
Guadalquivir and old Saville
And at dead of night the whistle blows
And people fear she's running still
And far away in some recess
The Lord and the Devil are now playing chess
The Devil still cheats and wins more souls
And as for the Lord, well, he's just doing his best
And I said Lord, oh Lord, you've got to win
The sun is down and the night is riding in
That train is still on time, oh my soul is on the line
Oh Lord, you've got to win

Trains and bloats and planes are passing by
They mean a trip to Paris or Rome
For someone else but not for me
The trains and the boats and planes
Took you away, away from me
We were so in love and high above
We had a star to wish upon
Wish and dreams come true, but not for me
The trains and the boats and planes
Took you away, away from me
You are from another part of the world
You had to go back awhile and then
You said you soon would return again
I'm waiting here like I promised to
I'm waiting here, but where are you
Oh trains and boats and planes took you away
But every time I see them I pray
And if my prayer can cross the sea
The trains and the boats and planes
Will bring back you back, back home to me, whoa
The trains and the boats and planes
Will bring you back, back home to me, whoa, whoa
Driving that train, high on cocaine,
Casey Jones you better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind
This old engine makes it on time
Leaves Central Station 'bout a quarter to nine
Hits River Junction at seventeen two
At a quarter to ten you know it's travelin' again
Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you better, watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind
Trouble ahead, Lady in red
Take my advice you'd be better off dead
Switchman's sleeping, train hundred and two is
On the wrong track and headed for you
Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you better watch your speed
Trouble ahead trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind
Drive your train, whoo
Trouble with you is the trouble with me
Got two good eyes but you still don't see
Come round the bend, you know it's the end
The fireman screams and the engine just gleams
Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you better, watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind
Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you better, watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind
Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you better, watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind
Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you better, watch your speed
Trouble ahead, you know, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind
And you know that notion just cross my mind

Riding on the City of New Orleans
Illinois Central Monday morning rail
Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail
All along the southbound odyssey
The train pulls out at Kankakee
Rolls along past houses, farms and fields
Passin' trains that have no names
Freight yards full of old black men
And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles
Good morning America how are you?
Don't you know me I'm your native son
I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
Dealin' cards games with the old men in the club car
Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score
Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor
And the sons of Pullman porters
And the sons of engineers
Ride their father's magic carpets made of steam
Mothers with their babes asleep
Are rockin' to the gentle beat
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel
Good morning America how are you?
Said don't you know me I'm your native son
I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
Nighttime on The City of New Orleans
Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee
Half way home, we'll be there by morning
Through the Mississippi darkness
Rolling down to the sea
But all the towns and people seem
To fade into a bad dream
And the steel rails still ain't heard the news
The conductor sings his songs again
The passengers will please refrain
This train's got the disappearing railroad blues
Good night, America, how are you?
Said don't you know me I'm your native son
I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done

Years later I saw some clearly battle hardened soldiers at the airport and I took them as my guests into the airport lounge for a few drinks. Seemed the 2nd Iraq war was not a "popular" as the 1st and I swear they were being look down upon.
I think you are right, but you did a really good thing for those soldiers. I am sure that they really appreciated you doing that.

We're gonna ride the Bible train now
No some won't ride, but we're going get on the Bible train
Some ride but not all the way
The Bible train is in the yard now and it's waiting and oh it looks so good
But you might get bored and impatient waiting like those two good brothers over there
They pass around the bottle in the car before they got on the train
Just want to take one more for the road and then, that leads to something else
Well they ain't on the train no more and maybe 9 or 10 got off with them
There's a sister in the church and she says to her friend
Your husband works at night and so does mine, why don't we just
Get together sometime when they're gone and go downtown and find us some action,
Well then they gotta get off the Bible train.
And then another man he's sitting over there looking at a woman in the corner
And he's gives her that eye, you know and they
Meet later, secretly, so they got to get off,
This train's got a rule against adultery.
And while all this is happening the train is getting ready to go,
But there's a lot more to get off than different reasons
Just before the train pulls out,
But listen its starting to move now,
Listen to it.
Here we go'.
As it leaves the man on the caboose with a long white beard says,
This train is bound for gory, this train,
This train is bound for glory, this train,
This train is bound for glory nobody rides it but the righteous and holy,
This train is bound for glory, this train
This train is a free train, this train,
This train is a free train, this train,
This train is a free train,
Everybody rides in Jesus' name
This train is a free train, this train,
This train it don't pull no liars, this train
This train don't pull no liars, this train
This train don't pull no liars,
No false pretenders and no backbiters
This train don't pull no liars, this train.
This train is a clean train, this train
This train is a clean train, this train
This train is a clean train,
Everybody rides it in Jesus' name
This train is a clean train, this train
Do you want to ride it children, this holy train'
Do you want to ride it children, this righteous train'
Get on board
Get on board
Get on board
Get on board this holy train
Get on board

You make love to me one more time girl
So I give a piece to you baby
Hey hey hey
Hear my train is coming
Hear my train is coming
Here come the rest of my soul
Movin' through the washer baby
Hear my train a comin' yeah yeah
