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"

    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”

    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"

    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

    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"

    “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."

    I know this is Jimi and can’t think of the name of the song -

    ***hangs head and walks out***

    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"

    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”

    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"

    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

    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"
