Let's play a game with song lyrics...

[RoosGirl]

I'm just a gigolo and ev'rywhere I go
People know the bar I'm playing
Pay for every dance selling each romance
Ooh, I could say
There would come a day
When news will pass away
What could they say about me

Well the men come in these places
And the men are all the same
You don't look at their faces
And you don't ask their names
You don't hitnk of them as human
You don't think of them at all
You keep your mind on the money
Keeping your eyes on the wall

[austingirl]

Well the men come in these places
And the men are all the same
You don't look at their faces
And you don't ask their names
You don't hitnk of them as human
You don't think of them at all
You keep your mind on the money
Keeping your eyes on the wall

Well, its 8 o'clock in Boise, Idaho
 I'll find my limo driver
 Mister, take us to the show
 I done made some plans for later on tonight
 I'll find a little queen
 And I know I can treat her right.


 What's your name, little girl?
 What's your name?
 Shootin' you straight, little girl?
 Won't you do the same?.

 Back at the hotel
 Lord we got such a mess
 It seems that one of the crew
 Had a go with one of the guests, oh yes
 Well, the police said we can't drink in the bar
 What a shame
 Won't you come upstairs girl
 And have a drink of champagne

 What's your name, little girl?
 What's your name?
 Shootin' you straight, little girl?
 For there ain't no shame.

My Maserati does one-eighty-five
I lost my license, now I don't drive
I have a limo, ride in the back
I lock the doors in case I'm attacked

[austingirl]

My Maseratti does one-eighty-five
I lost my license, now I don't drive
I have a limo, ride in the back
I lock the doors in case I'm attacked

 Well, the midnight headlight blind you on a rainy night
 Steep grade up ahead slow me down makin' no time
 But I gotta keep rollin'
 Those windshield wipers slappin' outta tempo
 Keepin' perfect rhythm with the song on the radio
 But I gotta keep rollin'

 Ooh, I'm driving my life away
 Lookin' for a better way for me
 Ooh, I'm driving my life away
 Lookin' for a sunny day

[bigheadfred]

White line fever, a sickness born
Down deep within my soul
White line fever, the years keep flyin' by
Like the highline poles

[Suppressed]

White line fever, a sickness born
Down deep within my soul
White line fever, the years keep flyin' by
Like the highline poles

You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night

[jmyrlefuller]

You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night

Sugar in the morning, sugar in the evening, sugar at suppertime
Be my little sugar and love me all the time

[debrawiest]

Sugar in the morning, sugar in the evening, sugar at suppertime
Be my little sugar and love me all the time

Sugar pie honey bunch
You know that I love you
I can't help myself
I love you and nobody else

[austingirl]

Sugar pie honey bunch
You know that I love you
I can't help myself
I love you and nobody else

 Girl have you ever been hungry
 So hungry that you had no pride?
 Well I got that feeling
 That biting, gnawing deep inside
 It's a funny pain
 One I can't explain
 You gotta help me girl
 Help me girl
 Cause I'm going insane

Sleepin' very soundly on a Saturday morning
I was dreamin' I was Al Capone
Rumor goin' round gotta clear outta town
Smellin' like a dry fish bone
Here come the law gonna break down the door
Gonna tear me away once more
Never never never want it any more
Gotta get away from the stone cold law
Crazy
Stone cold crazy yeah

 When you close your eyes and you go to sleep
 And it's down to the sound of a heartbeat
 I can hear the things that you're dreaming about
 When you open up your heart and the truth comes out

 You tell me that you want me
 You tell me that you need me
 You tell me that you love me
 And I know that I'm right
 'Cause I hear it in the night

[jmyrlefuller]

It's the right time of the night
The stars are winking above
It's the right time of the night for making love

[austingirl]

It's the right time of the night
The stars are winking above
It's the right time of the night for making love

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



 

 

[bigheadfred]

The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

[austingirl]

When autumn leaves start to fall

 Hot town, summer in the city
 Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
 Been down, isn't it a pity?
 Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
 All around, people looking half dead
 Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

 But at night it's a different world
 Go out and find a girl
 Come on, come on and dance all night
 Despite the heat it'll be all right

 And babe, don't you know it's a pity
 That the days can't be like the nights
 In the summer, in the city
 In the summer, in the city

 Cool town, evening in the city
 Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
 Cool cat, looking for a kitty
 Gonna look in every corner of the city
 Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop
 Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop

[RoosGirl]

It's hot here at night, lonely, black and quiet
On a hot summer night
Don't be afraid of the world we made
On a hot summer night

'Cause when a long-legged lovely walks by
Yeah you can see the look in her eye
Then you know that it's

Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight, tonight
Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight, tonight

[RoosGirl]

Ooh, a couple ways to go with that one. As much as Nelly's "Hot in Herre" is tempting, I'll go with the Lovin' Spoonful:

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin' dirt and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people lookin' half-dead
Walkin' on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

But at night, it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come-on come-on and dance all night
Despite the heat it'll be alright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city

Down here the river meets the sea
And in the sticky heat I feel ya' open up to me
Love comes out of nowhere baby, like a hurricane
And it feels like rain

Underneath the stars lying next to you
Wondering who you are baby
How do you do?
When the clouds blow in across the moon
And the wind howls out your name
Feels like rain

We'll never make that bridge tonight
Across lake Ponchartrain
Feel like rain

Batten down the hatches
But keep your heart out on your sleeve
A little bit of stormy weather, that's no cause for us to leave
Just stay here baby, in my arms
Let it wash away the pain
Feels like rain

[bigheadfred]

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold November rain

[Slip18]

People are people,
so why should it be
you and I should get along so awfully?

@bigheadfred @RoosGirl   Old acronym, but true:. ROTFLMAO!!!

How about:

One Scotch, one whiskey and one beer...

 I'm headed down a highway got a suitcase by my side
 Blue skies hangin' over my head I got 500 miles to ride
 I'm goin' down to Memphis town to play a latenight show
 I hope the people are ready there 'cause the boys are all ready to go

 Well, I'm a whiskey rock-a-roller
 That's what I am
 Women, whiskey and miles of travellin'
 Is all I understand

 I was born a travellin' man and my feets do burn the ground
 I don't care for fancy music if your shoes can't shuffle around
 I got a 100 women or more and there's no place I call home
 The only time I'm satisfied is when I'm on the road

Ha! Great minds. I have to admit "Hot in Herre" occurred to me as well.

He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs
throughout the south
He spoke through tears of 15 years how his dog and him
traveled about
The dog up and died, he up and died
And after 20 years he still grieves

He said I dance now at every chance in honky tonks
for drinks and tips
But most the time I spend behind these county bars
'cause I drinks a bit
He shook his head, and as he shook his head
I heard someone ask him please

Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles, dance..

Yippy yea, there'll be no wedding bells for today

I've got spurs that jingle, jangle, jingle
As I go riding merrily along
And they sing, "Oh, ain't you glad you're single?"
And that song ain't so very far from wrong
