Name That Song -- Baby Boomers Edition

TheRoadDog

Guess the song from the lyrics. Then put up the lyrics for the next one.

"And everything looks so complete
When you're walking out on the streets
And the wind, it catches your feet
Sets you flying, crying"

amesibee

Wild night - John Mellencamp

“There’s talk on the street it’s there to remind you
Doesn’t really matter which side you’re on
You’re walking away, and they’re talking behind you
They will never forget you till somebody new comes along”

TheRoadDog

New Kid in Town - Eagles

"Lord oh, yeah
When you need a friend through thick and thin
Don't look to those above you
When you're down and out, ain't no doubt
Nobody wants you"

amesibee

You’ve got a friend - James Taylor

“But there never seems to be enough time to do the things you want to do once you find them.
I’ve looked around enough to know that you’re the one I want to go through time with”

Hope you don’t mind me not being a baby boomer but it’s like my favorite era of music

Time in a bottle - Jim Croce

"You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips
And there's no tenderness like before in your fingertips"

Nope. That song was Rock Candy by Montrose.

Thanks for playing.

Time in a Bottle -- Jim Croce

"They say I'm the cutest boy in town!
My car is fast, my teeth are shiny,
I tell all the girls they can kiss my hiney!"

You've Lost That Loving Feeling -- Righteous Brothers

"When you're driving down the highway at night
And you're feelin' that wild turkey's bite
Don't give Johnny Walker a ride
'Cause Jack Black is right by your side"

Arrested for driving while blind - ZZ Top

“You didn’t have to make me a total disgrace
You didn’t have to leave me with that beer in my face
Hey-hey mama, what’s the matter here?
that’s alright, it’s awful dog-gone clear”

Led Zeppelin. Can't remember the name of the song.

"You don't care for me
I don't-a care about that
You got a new fool, ha!
I like it like that."

Fire. Coincidentally, it was the first song I learned to play on the drums,

"Don't come knockin' around my door
Don't wanna see your shadow no more
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes"

American Women!

Now I will have to go listen to this on Youtube

Wind tearing through the back street
I hear the rhythm of my heartbeat
Rain blowing to my face
I'm tired of being in the wrong place
Blues knocking on my back door
I can't jump from the second floor.

One of my favorite bands. Foghat --Stone Blue

"I pulled into Nazareth just a feelin' 'bout a half past dead
I just need to find a place where I can lay my head
Mister can you tell me where a man might find a bed?
He just grinned and shook my hand and "No" was all he said"

amesibee

The Weight - The Band

“No, there’s nothin you can send me my own true love
There’s nothin I’m wishin to be ownin
Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled
From across that lonesome ocean”

TheRoadDog

Dylan, but I don't know the name of the song.

"Well I made my first kill
With the home town girl
She was the apple of her daddy's eye
Well that woman looked up at me
And I said honey we'll be
Together 'till the day I die
But I lied"

epr31295

Nazareth?

But it sure looks like lyrics from a Aerosmith song!

I could be wrong but I thought it was old town girl? Or I could be wrong about the song!

Sitting in a bar in a seaside town
Sweet little love getting high getting down
Sailors see her running along the beach
Laugh and jump out of reach

TheRoadDog

Yep, that was Nazareth

Heart - Kick it Out (seen them in concert 6 times)

"There's so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy"

John Mellencamp?

Runnin' all night on Lake Avenue
It's a piece of cake if you know what to do
You've got to lose a few 'til the stakes get high
When the odds are right, you just blow by

Rev on The Red Line - Foreigner

“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 (my niece is named for this song)

"I still remember it was autumn and the moon was shinin'
Our 60 Cadillac was roarin' through Nebraska whinin'"

Bob Seager One of my favorite to see in concert!

"Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, Tony Danza in my hand"

TheRoadDog

Tony Danza?????

Elton John -- Tiny Dancer (Seen him 3 times)

"It didn't take too much money,
Man, but it sure was nice.
You could dance all night if you felt all right,
Drinking whiskey and throwing dice."

Elton John - tiny dancer

“He said he wanted heaven
But waiting was too slow
So he bought a one way ticket
On an airline made of snow
They say they saw your good friend flying low
Dying slow - flying low”

"They got little hands
And little eyes
And they walk around
Tellin' great big lies
They got little noses
And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little feet"

Short People - Randy Newman
LOVE THAT SONG 😂

“A warden led a prisoner
Down the hallway to his doom
I stood up to say goodbye
Like all the rest
And heard him tell the warden
Just before he reached my cell
Let my guitar playing friend do my request”

epr31295

Either Elvis or Merle I think

"Well I'm not braggin' babe so don't put me down
But I've got the fastest set of wheels in town
When something comes up to me he don't even try
'Cause if I had a set of wings man I know she could fly"

Everyone we meet"

“After three days in the desert fun i was looking at a river bed
And the story it told
Of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead”
