Great Song Lyrics

What a kettle of fish I dont know where to start. Dylan, Rush, Floyd, Motorhead, Pouges. Neil Young.Clash, ffs.
I like the songs that speak to each other, like this,
The Clash sing,



and the Specials reply,

 

If the lyrics are good enough then the members should know em straight off so. Lets see.
Heres an easy one.

Who knows this one?

Song and artist.

Deep down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans,
Way back up in the woods....

 

Johnny B Good

By everybody

 

Next


Ridin' down the highway
Goin' to a show
Stop in all the byways
Playin' rock 'n' roll

 

Marillion (Fish era), Pink Floyd and many others are most worthy.
But what about "The Yorkshire Couple" sung by Kate Rusby? Pure class. (Lyrics by Jim Mackie apparently - a Pontefract lad, seemingly, which probably explains a lot! Certainly covers a multitude of my sins!!).

 

Who sang this?

I know theres nothing to say
Someone has taken my place
when times go bad
When times go rough.

 

You did, just there now

 

Not good enough. Who sang it...no cheating

 

Don't have a clue... I'll take a wild guess.
Johnny Cash

 

Your go then.

 

Hows it my go?

 

Is so.

 

Just for you then @Sprinter you'll like this one


A butterfly floats on the breeze of a sun lit day
As I feel this reality gently fade away
Riding on a thought to see where it's from
Gliding through a memory of a time yet to come
Smoke paints the air
Swirling images through my mind
Like a whirlpool spin beginning to unwind
And I stand at the edge cautiously awaiting
As time slips by
Carefully navigating by the stars in the sky
And I sit
And I think to myself
And on the horizon the sun light begins to climb
And it seems like it's been so long since he shined
But I'm sure it was only yesterday
A cold chill of fear cut through me
I felt my heart contract
To my mind I brought the image of light
And I expanded out of it
My fear was just a shadow
And then I voice spoke in my head
And she said dark is not the opposite of light
It's the absence of light
And I thought to myself
She knows what she's talking about
And for a moment I know
What it was all about.

 

The song title is an Indian word meaning peace, enlightenment or something along those lines

 

Red or Korma?
edit or cricket

 

Man to man is so unjust, children:
Ya don't know who to trust.
Your worst enemy could be your best friend
And your best friend your worse enemy.
Some will eat and drink with you
Then behind them su-su 'pon you.
Only your friend know your secrets
So only he could reveal it.
And who the cap fit, let them wear it!
Who the cap fit, let them wear it!
Said I throw me corn, me no call no fowl
I saying, "Cook-cook-cook, cluk-cluk-cluk."
Some will hate you, pretend they love you now
Then behind they try to eliminate you.
But who Jah bless, no one curse
Thank God, we're past the worse.
Hypocrites and parasites
Will come up and take a bite.
And if your night should turn to day
A lot of people would run away.
And who the stock fit let them wear it!
Who the (cap fit) let…

 

Sorry I'm wrong, googled it. Its an Indian word used as a greeting.
More Beastie boys. Namaste.
And you thought they just did rapping
