Hi everyone the last one no longer appears in recent posts...

Many know how to play, they isn't rules as such just post a song lyric that follows on from the previous one.
Feel free to have a natter along the way, artist is optional although helpful if a little obscure all I ask is you play nice Xx

The last song lyric posted was:

You can paint a picture 🖼
More than they can give you
History is written by the hands
That hold the future
Paint it bright
Paint it loud
Paint it now

Whitey

Days go by just killing time
Days go by
I'm living in paradise
Sunset across the shield
Paradise--ain't so nice
Some raw deal
Here in our own sweet way
Passing the time of day

Ventura Highway in the sunshine
Where the days are longer
The nights are stronger than moonshine
You're gonna go
I know-uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh
'Cause the free wind is blowing through your hair
And the days surround your daylight there
Seasons crying no despair
Alligator lizards in the air, in the air

I remember when rock was young
Me and Susie had so much fun
Holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
Was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were rocking 'round the clock
We were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock

Sweet little Moonshine Sally I got your picture on my wall
You live in Tukalo Valley beside the fire waterfall
And ev'ry night I hear you call from beneath the waterfall
Hey hey hey
I wanna take you don't wanna make you
Live with me in Tukalo Valley
Hey hey hey
Hear me calling magic's falling
AII around Moonshine Sally
Moonshine Sally from Tukalo Valley
They talk of voices in the valley they say the evil moon is high
They say they hear no more of Sally where the magic waterfall runs dry
So ev'ry night I hear you call from the magic waterfall
Hey hey hey
I wanna take you don't wanna make you......

Chinn/Chapman, performed by Mud

I long to see the morning light
Colour in your face so dreamily
So don't you go and say goodbye
You can lay your worries down and stay with me
Don't you ever leave

Lay down, Sally, and rest here in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, there's no need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you

Eric Clapton

Sally, you opened out your arms
To all those young men
And girl, you had room for every one of them
You're the only girl on Bowery and Third
Sure as hell you're the only one who cared

So put your hands together for Sally
She saved all those young men
Put your hands together for Sally
She's the one who cared for them
She's doing our dirty work
She's the only one who cares
Doing our dirty work
Thirsty world one angry day, in New York

w up in a town that is famous as a place of movie scenes
Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say
Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway

Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby I'm from New York!
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York!
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New York!

I was bruised and battered

I couldn't tell what I felt

I was unrecognizable to myself

Saw my reflection in a window

And didn't know my own face

Oh brother are you gonna leave me wastin' away

On the streets of Philadelphia?

I walked the avenue, 'til my legs felt like stone

I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone

At night I could hear the blood in my veins

Just as black and whispering as the rain

On the streets of Philadelphia

Bruce Springsteen

[elliemay1]

You promised me, green grass, not to tell what you heard.
Whispering Grass, say! you can't keep your word, keep your word.
Why do you whisper, green grass?
Why tell the trees what ain't so ?
Whispering Grass, the trees don't have to know.
No, No, Why tell them all your secrets?
Who kissed there long ago?
Whispering grass, the trees don't need to know.
Don't you tell it to the breeze 'cause she will tell the birds and bees
And ev'ryone will know because you told the blabbering trees
Yes, you told them once before;
It's no secret any more.

Telegraph cables, they sing down the highway

And travel each bend in the road

People who meet in this romantic setting

So hypnotized by the lovely

Evening summer breeze

Warbling of a meadowlark 🐦‍⬛

Moonlight in Vermont

Sent a telegram today

Tomorrow, you'll be on your way

Could be Memphis or LA

No questions, just get out and play

Wake up call to catch the plane

You know you're on the road again

Someone's bangin' in your head

Why did you get so late to bed

You're my main man

Golden Nose Slim Golden Nose Slim
I know's where you've been
Purple Pie Pete Purple Pie Pete
Your lips are like lightning
Girls melt in the heat

[Arksided]

Everything I touched was golden
Everything I loved got broken
On the road to Mandalay
Every mistake I've ever made
Has been rehashed and then replayed
As I got lost along the way

I was lost in France

And the vines were overflowing

I was lost in France

And a million stars 🌟 were glowing

Bonnie Tyler

[Hazlinny]

We were stayin' in Paris
To get away from your parents
You look so proud
Standing there with a frown and a cigarette
Postin' pictures of yourself on the Internet
Out on the terrace
We breathe in the air of this small town
On our own, cuttin' class for the thrill of it
Gettin' drunk on the past we were livin' in

I love Paris in the springtime
I love Paris in the fall
I love Paris in the winter when it drizzles
I love Paris in the summer when it sizzles

I love Paris every moment
Every moment of the year
I love Paris, why, oh why do I love Paris?
Because my love is near
