C&P your songs you loved from that time period


Gloria

Van Morrison


Like to tell you 'bout my baby.
Y'know she comes around.
She'bout five feet four,
a-from her head to the ground.
Y'know she comes around here,
a-just about midnight.
She make me feel so good, Lord.
She make me feel all right.
And her name is G-L-O-R-I-A,
G-L-O-R-I-A, G-L-O-R-I-A.
I'm gonna shout it all night. (Gloria)
I'm gonna shout it ev'ry day. (Gloria)

She comes around here,
just about midnight.
She make me feel so good, Lord.
I wanna say, she make me feel alright.
She comes walkin' down my street;
a-well, she comes to my house.
She knock up-on my door.
And then she comes to my room.
Then she make me feel all right.
G-L-O-R-I-A, G-L-O-R-I-A.
I'm gonna shout it all night. (Gloria)
I'm gonna shout it ev'ry day. (Gloria)

Help !

Lennon / McCartney

HELP, I NEED SOMEBODY, HELP, NOT JUST ANYBODY
HELP, YOU KNOW I NEED SOMEONE, HELP

WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, SO MUCH YOUNGER THAN TODAY
I NEVER NEEDED ANYBODY'S HELP IN ANY WAY
BUT NOW THESE DAYS ARE GONE, I'M NOT SO SELF ASSURED
NOW I FIND I CHANGED MY MIND, I'VE OPENED UP THE DOORS

HELP ME IF YOU CAN, I'M FEELING DOWN AND I DO APPRECIATE YOU BEING AROUND
HELP ME GET MY FEET BACK ON THE GROUND WON'T YOU PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME

AND NOW MY LIFE HAS CHANGED IN, OH, SO ANY WAYS
MY INDEPENDENCE SEEMS TO VANISH IN THE HAZE
BUT EVERY NOW AND THEN I FEEL SO INSECURE
I KNOW I JUST NEED YOU LIKE I'VE NEVER DONE BEFORE

HELP ME IF YOU CAN, I'M FEELING DOWN AND I DO APPRECIATE YOU BEING AROUND
HELP ME GET MY FEET BACK ON THE GROUND WON'T YOU PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME

WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, SO MUCH YOUNGER THAN TODAY
I NEVER NEEDED ANYBODY'S HELP IN ANY WAY
BUT NOW THESE DAYS ARE GONE, I'M NOT SO SELF ASSURED
NOW I FIND I CHANGED MY MIND, I'VE OPENED UP THE DOORS

HELP ME IF YOU CAN, I'M FEELING DOWN AND I DO APPRECIATE YOU BEING AROUND
HELP ME GET MY FEET BACK ON THE GROUND WON'T YOU PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME

I Shot The Sheriff

Bob Marley

I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy

All around in my hometown
They're tryin' to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of the deputy
For the life of the deputy, but I swear

Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what, I don't know
Every time that I plant a seed,
He'd say kill it before it grows
He'd say kill it before it grows


Freedom came my way one day
So I started out of town, yeah
All of the sudden I see sheriff John Brown
Aimin' to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot him down, but I swear

Reflexes are the better of me
And what is to be must be
Every day the bucket goes to the well
One day the bottom will drop out
One day the bottom will drop out

Imagine

John Lennon

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today, ah-ha

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in piece

You, you may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
Nothing to kill or die for
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You, you may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

She's Not There

Ron Argent

Well no one told me about her
The way she lied
Well no one told me about her
How many people cried

Well it's too late to say you're sorry
How would I know, why should I care?
Please don't bother trying to find her
She's not there

Well let me tell you 'bout
The way she looked
The way she acted,
The color of her hair

Her voice was soft and good,
Her eyes were clear and bright
But she's not there

Well no one told me about her
What could I do?
Well no one told me about her
Though they all knew

Well it's too late to say you're sorry
How would I know, why should I care?
Please don't bother trying to find her
She's not there

Sultans Of Swing
Mark Knopfler


You get a shiver in the dark, it's rainin' in the park, but meantime,
Son of the river, you stop and you hold everything
A band is blowin' Dixie, double-four time,
You feel alright when you hear that music playin'

Now you're steppin' inside but you don't see too many faces
Comin' in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
Competition in other places,
But the horns, they're blowin' that sound
Way on down south, way on down south, in London town

Check out guitar George, he knows all the chords
Mind, he's strictly rhythm, he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
Yes, and an old guitar is all he can afford,
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing.
With the Sultans, with the Sultans of Swing.

And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene,
He's got a daytime job, he's doin' all right
He can play the honky tonk like anything,
Savin' it up for Friday night, with the Sultans, with the Sultans of Swing

There's a crowd o' young boys, they're foolin' around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggys and their platform soles
They don't give a damn about any trumpet playin' band
It ain't what they call "Rock an' Roll."

And the Sultans play Creole, Yes the Sultans play Creole, Creole

Then the manager steps right up to the microphone
And says at last just as the time bell rings,
"Thank you, Good Night, now it's time to go home"
He makes it fast, "Just one more thing"
"We are the Sultans, we are the Sultans of Swing".

Sundown

I can see her lying back in her satin dress
In a room where you do what you don't confess,
Sundown, you'de better take care
If I find you've been creeping 'round my back stairs.
Sundown, you'd better take care
If I find you've been creeping 'round my back stairs.

She's been looking like a queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really mean.
Sundown, you'd better take care
If I find you've been creeping 'round my back stairs.
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get better loving and I'm feeling no pain.

I can picture every move that a man can make
Getting lost in her loving is your first mistake,
Sundown, you'd better take care
If I find you've been creeping 'round my back stairs.
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winning when I'm losing again.

I can see her looking fast in her faded jeans
She's a hard-loving woman, got me feeling mean.
Sundown, you'd better take care
If I find you've been creeping 'round my back stairs.
Sometimes, I think it's a shame
When I get better loving and I'm feeling no pain.
Sundown, you'd better take care
If I find you've been creeping 'round my back stairs.
Sometimes, I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winning when I'm losing again.

White Rabbit


One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small
and the ones that mother gives you don't do anything at all
go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall

And if you go chasing rabbits and you know you're going to fall
Tell'em a hooka smoking caterpillar has given you the cord
Call Alice when she was just small

When men on the chessboard get up and tell you where to go
and you just had some kind of mushroom and your mind is moving low
go ask Alice, I think she'll know

When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
and the white knight is talking backwards
and the red queen's off with her head
Remember what the Dormouse said
Feed your head! Feed your head!
Feed your head!

You've got a friend

Carole King

When you're down and troubled and you need a helping hand
And nothing, oh, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring summer or fall, all you got to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend

If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
And soon I'll be knocking upon your door

Chorus

...and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold, they'll hurt you and desert you
Well, they'll take your soul if you let them, but don't you let 'em

Chorus

...and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend
You've got a friend, ain't it good to know
You've got a friend, ain't it good to know
You've got a friend, oh, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend

Elected

I'm your top prime cut of meat, I'm your choice
I wanna be elected
I'm your yankee doodle dandy in a gold Rolls Royce
I wanna be elected
Kids want a savior, don't need a fake
I wanna be elected
We're gonna rock to the rules that I make
I wanna be elected, elected, elected
I never lied to you, I've always been cool
I wanna be elected
I gotta get the vote, and I told you about school
I wanna be elected, elected, elected
Hallelujah, I wanna be elected
Everyone in the United States of America
We're gonna win this one, take the country by storm
We're gonna be elected
You and me together, young and strong
We're gonna be elected, elected, elected
Respected, selected, call collected
I wanna be elected, elected

Alice Cooper

No More Mister Nice Guy

I used to be such a sweet, sweet thing
Until they got a hold of me
I opened doors for little old ladies
I helped the blind to see
I got no friends 'cause they read the papers
They can't be seen with me and I'm getting shot down
And I'm feeling mean
No more Mister Nice Guy
No more Mister Clean
No more Mister Nice Guy
They say he's sick , he's obscene
I got no friends 'cause they read the papers
They can't be seen with me and I'm getting shot down
And I'm feeling mean
My dog bit me on leg today
My cat clawled my eye
My mom's been thrown out of society circle
My dad's had to hide
I went to church incognito
When everybody rose, the Reserved Smith
He recognized me
Punched me in the nose

Alice Cooper

School's Out

Well, we got no choice
All the girls and boys
Makin' all that noise
Cause they found new toys

Well, we can't salute ya
Can't find a flag
If that don't suit ya
That's a drag

School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's been blown to pieces

No more pencils
No more books
No more teacher's dirty looks

Well, we got no class
And we got no principals
And we got no innocence
We can't even think of a word that rhymes

School's out for summer
School's out forever
My school's been blown to pieces

No more pencils
No more books
No more teacher's dirty looks

Out for summer
Out till fall
We might not come back at all

School's out forever
School's out for summer
School's out with fever
School's out completely

Take It Easy
Well I been running down the road
Tryin' to loosen my load
I got seven women on my mind
Four that wanna own me
Two that wanna stone me
One says she's a friend of mine

Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
and take it easy

Well I'm a standing on a corner
In Winslow, Arizona
And such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
We may lose and we may win
Don't mean we'll never be here again
So open up, I'm climbin' in,
And take it easy

Well I been running down the road
Tryin' to loosen my load
Got a world of trouble on my mind
Lookin' for a lover who won't blow my cover
She's so hard to find

Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy
Come on baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me

Oh we got it easy
We oughta take it easy

Fleetwood Mac

Go Your Own Way
Loving you
Isn't the right thing to do
How can I ever change things
That I feel

If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
How can I
When you won't take it from me

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way

Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you wanna do

If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
Open up
Everything's waiting for you

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way

Peaceful Easy Feeling

I like the way your sparkling earrings lay
Against your skin, so brown
And I wanna sleep with you in the desert tonight
With a billion stars all around
'Cause I gotta peaceful easy feeling
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standing on the ground

And I found out a long time ago
What a woman can do to your soul
Ah, but she can't take you anyway
You don't already know how to go
And I got a peaceful, easy feeling
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standing on the ground

I get this feeling I may know you
As a lover and a friend
But this voice keeps whispering in my other ear
Tells me I may never see you again
'Cause I get a peaceful, easy feeling
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standing on the ground

Rumour spreadin' 'round in that Texas town

And you know what I'm talkin' about
Just let me know if you wanna go
To that home out on the range

Have mercy
A haw, haw, haw, haw, a haw
A haw, haw, haw
Well I hear it's fine if you got the time
And the ten to get yourself in
A hmm, hmm
And I hear it's tight most every night
But now I might be mistaken

Led Zeppelin
Stairway To Heaven



There is a lady, who is safe that everything, which sparkles is gold
And it buys a stairway to the sky.
If it receives there, it knows, if all memory is closed
For with a word it can receive, which came it.
Ooh, ooh and them buy a stairway to the sky.

There is an indication on the wall, but she would like to be safe
because sometimes you know, words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook, there is a singing bird, which sings,
Sometimes all are our thoughts misgiven.
Ooh, he educates me to miracle,
Ooh, he educates me to miracle.

There is a feeling, that, I, if I look to the west receive,
And my spirit walk for leaving.
In my thoughts I saw rings of the smoke by the trees,
And the voices of those those, which stand looking.
Ooh, he educates me to miracle,
Ooh, he really educates me to miracle.

And it whispered that soon if we all call the melody
Then leads piper us to conclude.
And a new day dawns for those, which long
And the forests resound with laughter against.

If a hasty bustle in their hedgerow, are alarms not now you gives,
It is a spring straight, which is clean for May queen.
There are two ways, which can pass you, but on a long-term basis
There is calm time to change the road which you are switched on.
And it educates me to miracle.

Their head hums and it does not go, if you do not know,
Pipers, which call you, in order to connect it,
If lady loves, can hear you through the wind burn and you knew
Their stairway is on whispering the wind.

And like we on down the road windings
Our shade more highly than our soul.
There goes a lady we, who all
Who shines white light and would like to represent
As everything turns still at gold.
And if you hear very strongly
The melody comes to you finally.
If all are, everything is one and one
Its a rock and do not roll.

And it buys a stairway to the sky.

Cream

White Room


In the white room with black curtains nearly the station.
Blackroof country, no golden pavements, müd starlings.
Silberne horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawnlight smiles, on which you, my satisfied position leaving.

I will wait here where the sun never polishes;
Wait here where the shadows run of itself.

They said that no cords you could secure at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye window.
I ran into such a sad time at the station.
When I ran out of, my characteristic need that only begins feels.

I will wait in the queue if the trains return;
Lie with you where the shadows run of itself.

On the festival, it was kindness in the hard person quantity.
Comfort for the old now forgotten injury.
Yellow tigers squatted in jungle in its dark eyes.
It is only dressing, goodbye window, müd starlings.

I will sleep here with the solitary person quantity;
You lie darken in that where the shadows run of itself.

RAINDROPS KEEP FALLING ON MY HEAD LYRICS

Raindrops keep falling on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin' seems to fit
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling

So I just did me some talkin' to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way he' got things done
Sleepin' on the job
Those raindrops are falling on my, head they keep falling

But there's one thing I know
The blues he sends to meet me won't defeat me
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red
Crying's not for me
Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
Because I'm free
Nothing's worrying me.

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah

The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire

Yellow River
Christie

- The Vietnam-era classic by the British trio

So long, boy, you can take my place
I got my papers, I got my pay
So pack my bags and I'll be on my way . . . to Yellow River

Put my gun down, the war is won
Fill my glass high, the time has come
I'm goin' back to the place that I love . . . Yellow River

Yellow River, Yellow River . . . is in my mind and in my eyes
Yellow River, Yellow River . . . is in my blood, it's the place that I love

Got no time for explanations, got no time to lose
Tomorrow night you'll find me sleepin' underneath the moon
And Yellow River

Cannon fire lingers in my mind
I'm so glad I'm still alive
And I've been gone for such a long time . . . from Yellow River

I remember the nights were cool
I can still see the water pool
And I remember the girl that I knew . . . from Yellow River

Seasons in the Sun
Terry Jacks

Goodbye Emil, my trusted friend
We've known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and ABC's
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees

Goodbye Emil, it's hard to die
When all the bird's are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Pretty girls are everywhere
I wish we could both be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills we could climb were just seasons out of time

Goodbye Papa, please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
You tried to show me right from wrong
But too much wine and too much song
Wonder how I got along

Goodbye Papa, it's hard to die
When all the bird's are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Little kids are everywhere
Think of me and I'll be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

Goodbye Francoise, my trusted wife
Without you I'd had a lonely life
You cheated lots of times with them
But I forgave you in the end
Though your lover was my friend

Goodbye Francoise, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
With your lovers everywhere
Just be careful, I'll be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach

Goodbye Michelle, my little one
You gave me joy and helped me find the sun
And every time when I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground

One Hell of a Woman
Mac Davis


She's a woman
She's a baby
She's a witch
She's a lady
She's a free and gentle spirit
She can be what she wants to be
And if she wants to be with me tonight
That's alright

She's one hell of a woman
Young, strong and tame
But soft when she loves me
Like a gentle kitten in my hand
She makes me feel
Like a hell of a man

She's wild, warm and tender
She'll resist then she'll surrender
She's a free and gentle spirit
She can be what she wants to be
And if she wants to be with me tonight
Well that's alright

She's one hell of a woman
Young, strong and tame
But soft when she loves me
Like a gentle kitten in my hand
She makes me feel
Like a hell of a man

She's one hell of a woman
Young, strong and tame
But soft when she loves me
Like a gentle kitten in my hand
She makes me feel
Like a hell of a man...
