"What started out to be such a good thing Has taken my heart and replaced it with string I'm smoking more but enjoying it less I get a whole lot of sleep But I don't get enough rest..."
Guest Johnny One Trout Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 The Parliaments ? Don't be sore at me: My anger clouded my judgement & I saw a red flash Then my mouth wrote a cheque that my heart couldn't cash I just love Clinton's lyrics and this was the start of a real purple patch for the bearded weirdo I'm as happy as a monkey with a peanut machine since i found you John
Simon T Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 [ I just love Clinton's lyrics and this was the start of a real purple patch for the bearded weirdo Plus from 'Heart Trouble': "I'm turning grey from being blue, because you found somebody else"

Sam dees-After All One of them records that put's a tear in your eye!" **Oh so true! Sam Dees is a genius in my book, "after all" is truly great also the lyrics to "i'm gonna give you just enough rope to hang yourself" is good.. best Leo
Guest in town Mikey Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 Being the incurable romantic that I am, when Dena Barnes sings: You dont know the suffering I go through, I go weak at the knees. Must have been about 13 when i first heard that line, and it killed me stone dead then.
Gene-r Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 Don't Pity Me by Joanie Sommers: "These tears you see baby are not for me, I'm crying because I know I must have hurt him so"
Tony Smith Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 "I took that ring you were wearing on your finger, When it turned your knuckle green, gave you 14 karat gold And more diamonds than you'd ever seen" "You mistook my kindness for weakness You must've thought I was a jellyfish, Gonna take some tranquillisers, gonna take a trip If that's your wish" Larry Williams "I'm The One" Okeh

Guest Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 Sorry if I sound conceited but I think I'm better than you, if you had this girl of mine I think that you'd be braggin too. Fantastic Four, Live Up To What She Thinks. (Ric Tic). Turns me into a tart everytime I hear it. This thread could go on and on, one of the many aspects soul is blessed with is poetry
Jumpinjoan Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 [size=7 The best lyrics have got to be - Shirley Whals - "That's How Long" - King "TELL THE DJ'S THEY' VE GOT NOTHING TO SAY....... UNTIL THEY HAVE NO MORE RECORDS TO PLAY !!!" .......'nuff said!!
Guest Brian Ellis Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 Almeta Lattimore - These Memories 'When I go to bed, there you are in my dreams again, and I just don't understand, hey baby, they're driving me, driving me, oh they're driving me mad. Oh baby these memories won't leave me alone. And I think it's a shame, oh baby, cos without you I feel like I can't go on. Oh I can't understand this feeling I have for you and I don't know what to do, cos these old memories of you...........' If you don't know it and you want a spine-tingling 3+ minutes go listen to it on Soul Club. Brian
Jodie Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 Actually my 2 bestest ever favourites are: When i'm walkin' down the street, i'm just another guy No-one pays attention, everytime i'm passin' by But when my baby kisses me, I feel like I am royalty.......... (Had to pick that one, it's our soppy song, awww) Everytime I meet, someone we knew It never fails, they always ask for you Even though they know, we've said goodbye I just tell them I don't think about you, and i'm much better off without you...... My favourite song ever!! make's me cry like a great big baby!!
Guest Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 i will always like the lyrics from eddie parkers "iam gone" & judy freemans "hold on",makes me feel a bit better when totaly f***ed off
Guest LeoLyxxx Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 Another one i really like the lyrics on is Brenda Jones masterpiece "big mistake"... pretty much only good lyrics in it but : "you look like your daddy now, funny, i always thought you looked like me somehow.. " and "seems i made a bad mistake on my wedding day, couldn't stand the strife of married life so i had you baby and the i went away.." are sheer brilliance.. best Leo
Peter Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 How about Sammy Ambrose "This Diamond Ring" Who wants to buy this diamond ring, she took it of her finger now it doesn't mean a thing, this diamond ring doesn't shine for me anymore. This diamond ring doesn't mean what it meant before. And Sam Fletcher "I'd Think It Over Twice. I'd think it over twice, I'd take some good advice, if I were you girl. you say you love him but tell me are you really sure. And Millie Jackson "House For Sale" The bedroom is right this way with unlimited closet space.... AND.... Located at 1679 Gidwell Avenue, Theres just something about "House For Sale" Peter
Paul R Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 From the first time I heard it many years ago, the vocal "break" in the middle of Scratchy by Travis Wamack has always done it for me!!!!
Dayo Posted May 6, 2004 Author Posted May 6, 2004 Paul r - chuckling here coz for 35 years I've been trying to figure what that line is in "Scratchy". My best guess is.... "Capital, please do it again, won't you ..." Could be a mile off though! Any thoughts?
