The New 1970s Lyrics Game

   Cheap Trick.  Nice one.

She's been lookin' like a queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really means
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain 

She's been lookin' like a queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really means
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain

Sundown  --  Gordon Lightfoot  One of Canada's finest songwriters...ever.
And so is this next Canadian artist:

And the women all were beautiful
And the men stood
Straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on.

Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones.

And the women all were beautiful
And the men stood
Straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on.

Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones.

Cortez the Killer - Neil Young



put some funny looking clothes on me too
then we can run around and
show our happy glow

If I Only Knew - Ozark Mountain Daredevils

Change it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fall that's all        

Change it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fall that's all

Won't Get Fooled Again  --  The Who  No need to look up that instantly recognized classic  



Originally recorded by the band "Them", this song has added lyrics performed between 1968 and 1970.  I'm using this particular version's lyrics from a performance on 7/22/69 at The Aquarius Theater in Hollywood, CA. (It's also another "baby" double threader)

Come on baby
Here she is in my room, oh boy
Hey what's your name?
How old are you?
Where'd you go to school?
Uh huh, yeah, oh yeah, huh 
Well, now that we know each other a little bit better,
Why don't you come over here and make me feel all right!


        

Gloria - The Doors, from Alive She Cried. I posted from that version too awhile back, but not sure what thread it was on.


And have a seat on the same old bench
To watch the children play
You know, tomorrow is their future
But to me, just another day      


 

And have a seat on the same old bench
To watch the children play
You know, tomorrow is their future
But to me, just another day      

Have You Seen Her - The Chi-Lites

No I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day

Mother and Child Reunion - Paul Simon


Well, it's no big sin to stick your two cents in
If you know when to leave it alone
Bt you went over the line
You couldn't see it was time to go home
No no no no no no    

    

Well, it's no big sin to stick your two cents in
If you know when to leave it alone
Bt you went over the line
You couldn't see it was time to go home
No no no no no no  

Big Shot - Billy Joel         nice double play 



I've got a feeling, a feeling I can't hide
Oh no, no, oh no, oh no

I've Got a Feeling - Beatles. Cool song. Paul McCartney's bridge is a tough one for karaoke.

Oh no no baby something's wrong
Oh no no no that old time fire's gone
It's not so much things you say love
It's what you don't say I'm afraid of    

   

Oh no no baby something's wrong
Oh no no no that old time fire's gone
It's not so much things you say love
It's what you don't say I'm afraid of

I GOT THE FEELIN' (OH NO NO NO) - NEIL DIAMOND

NEXT LYRICS:   Going back to the mid 60s for this classic:



Cause I'm leavin' in the morning
And I must see you again
We'll have one more night together
'Til the morning brings my train.
And I must go, oh, no, no, no!
Oh, no, no, no!

Cause I'm leavin' in the morning
And I must see you again
We'll have one more night together
'Til the morning brings my train.
And I must go, oh, no, no, no!
Oh, no, no, no!

Last Train To Clarkesville  --  The Monkees

The Monkees first hit single just before their TV show ever aired   

Well I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man

Well I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man

Lola - The Kinks

When I'm down and feeling sad
You always comfort me
When I'm down and feeling sad
You always comfort me

To Know You Is to Love You - BB King


When I get off of this mountain
You know where I want to go  

When I get off of this mountain
You know where I want to go  

Up On Cripple Creek - The Band

I ain't got nothin' against the east coast
You want some people well they got the most
And New York City's like a friendly ghost
You seem to pass right through
