The New 1970s Lyrics Game

Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me

Blue- Lee Ann Rimes

It actually was recorded by Bill Mack way back in the 50s but you are right - you can sure hear Patsy Cline when you listen to this one.

Hi Slip!
I'm glad to hear that all is going well on your trip.
Are you looking forward to coming home?
Or wishing you had more time there?

I am doing excellent - in spite of the cold winter.
We have had quite a bit more snow than last year but it sounds like the East Coast has had it much worse than us!
Good luck to them with digging out of this latest blast!

This next song is definitely a "mood" song and on my recent trip to New York City I put this one on the iPod and had a nice evening stroll through Manhattan.

Hey vibes man, hey jazz man, play me your serenade
Any deeper blue and you're playin' in your grave
Save your notes, don't spend 'em on the blues boy
Save your notes, don't spend 'em on the darlin' yearlin' sharp boy

Hey vibes man, hey jazz man, play me your serenade
Any deeper blue and you're playin' in your grave
Save your notes, don't spend 'em on the blues boy
Save your notes, don't spend 'em on the darlin' yearlin' sharp boy

so innocent and blue
He knew right then he was too far from home

Hollywood Nights - Bob Seger

Acid, booze, and ass
Needles, guns, and grass
Lots of laughs lots of laughs
Everybody's saying that hell's the hippest way to go
Well I don't think so
But I'm gonna take a look around it though

Blue - Joni Mitchell. And remember Joe Piscopo (As Frank Sinatra), saying here's a real cool cat, Bruce Springstein.


------take my blues away
Make your pain the same as yours
With every change you play 

     

take my blues away
Make your pain the same as yours
With every change you play

Jazzman - Carole King

Did you light the candles? Did you put on "Kind of Blue"?
Did you use that Ivy Leaage voodoo on him, too?

This really blew my mind, the fact that me,
An overfed, long-haired leaping gnome

Spill the Wine - Eric Burdon with War. Supossedly, his self-deprecating references are what a critic once called him

I guess some day my kids will ask me 'bout the old days
I guess that I'll tell them there ain't much to tell
The waiters wore black dinner jackets and all that kind of thing

Bluer than velvet were her eyes
Warmer than May her tender sighs
Love was ours
Ours a love I held tightly
Feeling the rapture grow
Like a flame burning brightly

Blue Velvet - Bobby Vinton


Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean  

Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean

All alone at the end of the of the evening
And the bright lights have faded to blue

All alone at the end of the of the evening
And the bright lights have faded to blue

Bluegirls come in every size
Some are wise and some otherwise,
They got pretty blue eyes.
For an hour a man may change

I guess they're right 'cause its wasted mine
Some got to win, some got to lose

"Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues"  by    Danny O'Keefe

You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
