Bell bottom blues, you made me cry. :larry:
I don’t want to lose this feeling.
And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in your arms.

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back? :hot:
I’d gladly do it because
I don’t want to fade away.
Give me one more day, please.
I don’t want to fade away.
In your heart I want to stay.

It’s all wrong, but it’s all right.
The way that you treat me baby.
Once I was strong but I lost the fight.
You won’t find a better loser.

Chorus

Chorus

Bell bottom blues, don’t say goodbye.
I’m sure we’re gonna meet again,
And if we do, don’t you be surprised
If you find me with another lover.

Chorus

I don’t want to fade away.
Give me one more day please.
I don’t want to fade away.
In your heart I long to stay.

"Toes"

The current is strong from what I've heard
It'll wisk you down the stream
But there never seems to be much time

My toes just touched the water
My toes just touched the water

Daydreamed on the bank again
I was swimming with the fish
And I thought this time that it may be true

(But) My toes just touched the water
My toes just touched the water
My toes just touched the water

Walked a mile just to find the edge
Some place low enough to step right in
Now I'm here and I can't begin - to move

Walked a mile just to find the edge
Some place low enough to step right in
Now I'm here and I can't begin - to move

The spoiled sun up over there
It always has to have its way
And I know that the river's there to shelter me

My toes just touched the water
My toes just touched the water

"bubbly toes"
It's as simple as something that nobody knows that her eyes are as big
as her bubbly toes
on the feet of a queen of the hearts of the cards and her feet are all
covered with tar balls and scars
It's as common as something that nobody knows that her beauty will
follow wherever she goes
up the hill in the back of her house in the would she love me forever,
I know she could

I remember when you and me mmm how we used to be just good friends
Wouldn't give me none
But all I wanted was some
She's got a whole lot of reasons
She cant think of a single one
That can justify leaving
and he got none but he thinks he got so many problems
Man he got, too much time to waste

His dreams are like commercials
But her dreams are picture perfect and
Our dreams are so related though they're often underestimated

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that
Her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes
On the feet of the queen of the hearts of the cards
And her feet are infested with tar balls and

La da da da da da

Well I was eating lunch at the D. L. G.
When this little girl came and she sat next to me
I never seen nobody move the way she did
Well she did and she does and she'll do it again

When you move like a jellyfish
Rhythm don't mean nothing
You go with the flow
You don't stop
Move like a jellyfish
Rhythm is nothing
You go with the flow
You don't stop

It's as common as something that nobody knows it
Her beauty will follow wherever she goes
Up the hill in the back of her house in the wood
She'll love me forever, I know she

La da da da da da

If you would only listen
You might just realize what you're missing
You're missing me
If you would only listen
You might just realize what you're missing
You're missing me

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that
Her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes
On the feet of the queen of the hearts of the cards
And her feet are infested with tar balls and

La da da da da da

What a week...

B.B. King, Jackie Greene, Allman Brothers, Keb' Mo', Bonnie Raitt... :yahoo:

The first one performed by Keb' Mo' just for Kwillia:

When the music starts to playin
She slides out on the floor
Dancing without a partner
Swaying on the two and four

There's a rythym in her footsteps
And a flower in her hair
A smile on her face
Cause she's in a place
Where she don't have a care

She ain't looking for no lover
She ain't looking for a romance
She just wants to dance
She just wants to dance
Yeah she just wants to dance
Ooo she just wants to dance

Well she's moving kinda lazy
And it's obvious to me
This little girl ain't crazy
She's as wild as she is free

She can feel it in her fingers
And it moves on down her spine
And when it hits her hips
She parts her lips
And you know she's feeling fine

She ain't looking for no lover
She ain't looking for a romance
She just wants to dance
She just wants to dance
Yeah she just wants to dance
She just wants to dance
Oh go on get it girl

She ain't looking for no lover
She ain't looking for a romance
She just wants to dance
She just wants to dance
Get out the way and let the girl dance
Yeah she just wants to dance
Yeah she just wants to
Slide along the floor
She wanna shuffle her shoes and shake her hips
She wanna wave her hands in the air
She wanna shake that hanky
Yeah
But she don't want no hanky panky
Yeah she just wants to dance
Leave her alone
And let her dance

:getdown:

My favorite new one by Keb' Mo'...

Heavenly Father up above
Have mercy on me
After seven years of bad, bad love
I finally got free
I don’t mean to seem ungrateful
You answered my prayer
And Father if you’re able
Don’t let me do the same damn thing all over again

You get the fever
You get the itch
You forget about the mess you are in
You forget about the money, the lawyers and the pain
And do the same damn thing all over again

Almighty Father, great and good
You need to be in my shoes
You let me fall in love, just like before
Now I’m stepping in a big pile of the blues
But now the honeymoon is over
Let’s not pretend
I guess I never learned my lesson
I did the same damn thing all over again

You get the fever
You get the itch
You forget about the mess you are in
You forget about the money, the lawyers and the pain
And do the same damn thing all over again

Mother Mary, Father Joe
I need to talk to your son
He had trouble just like mine
And he was the chosen one
So if I ever go to heaven
Will that be the end
Or will I fall for some sweet little angel
And do the same damn thing all over again

You get the fever
You get the itch
You forget about the mess you are in
You forget about the money, the lawyers and the pain
And do the same damn thing all over again

another new one from Keb'...

Do you ever get worried
And your load is hard to bear
And your life is like a sad, sad story
No one nobody really cares

But if you ever need someone to talk to
If you ever need a helping hand
I’ll be your ship
Out on the ocean
I’ll be your water
In the desert sand

I’ve been there I felt like you do
Feeling like winter would never turn to spring
And everybody I know has got problems
But there’s a solution to everything

But if you ever need someone to talk to
If you ever need a helping hand
I’ll be your ship
Out on the ocean
I’ll be your water
In the desert sand

And after you’ve found your way
You won’t owe me nothing
‘Cause you’re gonna know
That your well will never run dry
Never run dry

But if you ever need someone to talk to
If you ever need a helping hand
I’ll be your ship
Out on the ocean
I’ll be your water
In the desert sand

Let’s go drifting
Through the trees
Let’s go sailing
On the sea
Let’s go dancing
On the juke joint floor
And leave our trouble all behind
And have a party

And more new Keb'...

So easily forgotten
Are the most important things
Like the melody in the moonlight of your eyes
And a song that last forever
It keeps on getting better all the time

Life is beautiful
Life is wondrous
Every star above
Shining just for us
Life is beautiful
On a stormy night
Somewhere in the world
The sun is shining bright

I get crazy
So afraid
That I might lose you one fine day
And I’ll be nothing
But a tired old man
And I don’t want to be without you
At the party

So easily forgotten
The most important thing
Is that I love you
I do
And I wanna spend my days and nights
Walking through this crazy world with you

Life is beautiful
Life is wondrous
Every star above
Shining just for us
Life is beautiful
On a stormy night
Somewhere in the world
The sun is shining bright

Bonnie Raitt...

very poignant...

A friend of mine she cries at night and she calls me on the phone
Sees babies everywhere she goes and she wants one of her own
She's waited long enough she says and, she still he can't decide
Pretty soon she'll have to choose and it tears her up inside
She is scared
Scared she'll run out of time

I see my folks are getting on and I watch their bodies change
I know they see the same in me and it makes us both feel strange
No matter how you tell yourself, it's what we all go through
Those lines are pretty hard to take when they're starin' back at you
Scared to run out of time

When did the choices get so hard, there's so much more at stake
Life gets mighty precious
When there's less of it to waste
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Scared to run out of time

Just when I thought I'd had enough and all my tears were shed
No promise left unbroken, there were no painful words unsaid
You came along and showed me how to leave it all behind
You opened up my heart again and then much to my surprise
I found love, baby, love in in the nick of time
(Love in the nick of time)
I found love, darlin', love in the nick of time
I found love baby, love in the nick of time

Bonnie...many teary eyes in the house...

Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices
inside my head

Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close,
don't patronize

Don't patronize me

Cause I can't make you love me
if you don't
You can't make your heart feel
something it won't
Here in the dark
in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And I'll feel the power
but you won't
No, you won't
Cause I can't make you love me
if you don't

I'll close my eyes
then I won't see
the love you don't feel
when you're holding me

Morning will come
and I'll do what's right
just give me till then
to give up this fight

give up this fight

Cause I can't make you love me
if you don't
You can't make your heart feel
something it won't
Here in the dark
in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And I'll feel the power
but you won't
No, you won't
Cause I can't make you love me
if you don't

Jackie Greene...amazing talent for 25 years old...

She’s a dream, she’s a dream
Getting caught up in the scene
Like a used car bought off of Mr Vaseline
She’s a queen, she’s a queen
Getting’ played like a machine
And all the men pretend that they respect her when they leave
Hollywood

There’s a man, there’s a man
At least I think that he’s a man
He’s struttin’ down the street with a diamond on his hand
Here’s the band, hear the band
They’re the hottest in the land
Just keeping up their contract for whatever’s in demand
Hollywood

Socialite, socialite
Got a fancy appetite
And a hundred dollar habit that she goes to every night
But tonight, yes tonight
Tonight she’ll do it right
When they find her dead, she won’t be able to deny it
Hollywood

Sometimes I get so God Damned sick of these charades
This town is so opaque, I swear the bums are wearing shades
But I know that I’d be lying if I said it aint a thrill
Don’t say I didn’t warn you when the Devil brings the bill

Movie star, movie star in a tiny little car
Doing 90 on the 10 coming home from the bar
Big cigar, big cigar
And a smoking little car
He ran right off the road he didn’t make it very far
Hollywood

See the Freak, See The Freak
He’s the flavor of the week
The ratings all went up when they discovered he could speak
So let him speak, yes hear him speak
“his tone is so unique”
but by the time commercial hits, you know his fame has reached its peak
Hollywood

Now it doesn’t really matter what I do or what I say
There’s a millionaire buying every hour of the day
If you want to see some change you got to change it from the street
Change it with your hands, change it with your feet

Advertise, advertise
Slick and super size
Buy the car, find true love, and a dozen other lies
Surprise, oh surprise
Its what everybody buys
A fairytale fantasy, a demon in disguise
Hollywood

Molly would if she could
But she’s stuck in Nebraska
I had a truck and so I asked her where she longed to be
“I dunno, you tell me….life looks better on TV”
I said, “You might as well
Be living in a plastic factory!
Hollywood

B.B. King...still getting it at 80...

There was Adam, happy as a man could be
Till Eve got him messin' with that old apple tree

Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
They'll do it every time

Lot took his wife down to the corner for a malted
She wouldn't mind her business, boy, did she get salted

Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
They'll do it every time
Samson thought Delilah was on the square
Till one night she clipped him all his hair

Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
They'll do it every time

From our history books we all learned
Nero fiddled while Rome was burned

Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
They'll do it every time

Marie Antoinette met some hungry cats at the gate
They was crying for bread, she said, "Let them eat cake"

Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
They'll do it every time

You can buy a woman clothes
And give her money on the side
No matter what you do
She ain't never satisfied
Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
Ain't that just like a woman?
They'll do it every time

The Allman Brothers...

No I'm no angel, No I'm no stranger to the street
I`ve got my label, So I won't crumble at your feet
And I know baby, So I've got scars upon my cheek
And I'm half crazy, Come on and love me baby

So you find me hard to handle, well I'm easier to hold
So you like my spurs that jingle and I never leave you cold
So I might steal your diamonds I'll bring you back some gold
I'm no angel

No I'm no angel, No I'm no stranger to the dark
Let me rock your cradle, Let me start a fire with your spark
Oh come on baby, Come and let me show you my tatoo
Let me drive you crazy, Come on and love me baby

So you don't give a darn about me, I never treat you bad
I won't ever lift a hand to hurt you & I'll always leave you glad
So I might steal your diamonds I'll bring you back some gold
I'm no angel

No I'm no angel, No I'm no stranger to the dark
Let me rock your cradle, Let me start a fire with your spark
Oh come on baby, Come and let me show you my tatoo
Let me drive you crazy, Come on and love me baby

Duet from Keb' Mo' and Bonnie Raitt...

I am an old woman named after my mother
Old man is another child (that's) grown old
If dreams were thunder and lightning was desire
This old house would've burned down a long time ago

Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go

I was a young girl I had me a cowboy
Wasn't much to look at, just a free ramblin' man
That was a long time, (and) no matter how I try
The years just flow by like a broken-down dam

Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing (that) I can hold on to
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go

There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear all their buzzin'
I ain't done nothin' since I woke up today
How the hell can a person go to work in the morning
And come home in the evenin' and have nothin' to say

Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing (that) I can hold on to
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go

Another Keb'/Bonnie duet...

Sittin' in front of your house,
Light rain in early dawn
Workin' on a Love Letter
Got my radio on.

Got my eye on your window pane
and I smoked a lot of cigarettes.
Mercy, Mercy but love is strange
and you haven't even kissed me yet.

We come to push,
push comes to shove,
shove comes to touch,
touch will come to love.

Workin' on a Love Letter,
Listenin' to a love song,
I'm writing you a love letter, love letter,
got my radio on...radio, radio

Hope you get the message baby.
I know that you're gonna let me in.
It's weird in your neighborhood
if this is a war then I'm gonna win

We come to push,
push comes to shove,
shove comes to touch,
touch will come to love.

And love don't sit waitin'
Love don't behave
Love's writing in the car,
In pouring rain now.

Workin' on a Love Letter,
Listenin' to a love song,
I'm writing you a love letter, love letter,
got my radio on...radio, radio

:larry:

We come to push,
push comes to shove,
