Jim Croce - I Got A Name Like the pine trees linin' the windin' road I've got a name, i've got a name Like the singin' bird and the croakin' toad I've got a name, i've got a name And i carry it with me like my daddy did But i'm livin' the dream that he kept hid Movin' me down the highway Rollin' me down the highway Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by Like the north wind whistlin' down the sky I've got a song, i've got a song Like the whippoorwill and the baby's cry I've got a song, i've got a song And i carry it with me and i sing it loud If it gets me nowhere, i'll go there proud Movin' me down the highway Rollin' me down the highway Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by And i'm gonna go there free Like the fool i am and i'll always be I've got a dream, i've got a dream They can change their minds but they can't change me I've got a dream, i've got a dream Oh, i know i could share it if you want me to If you're going my way, i'll go with you Movin' me down the highway Rollin' me down the highway Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by more about "Jim Croce - I Got a Name (1973)", posted with vodpod

Jim Croce - Lover's Cross Guess that it was bound to happen Was just a matter of time But now i've come to my decision And it's a-one of the painful kind 'cause now it seems that you wanted a martyr Just a regular guy wouldn't do But baby i can't hang upon no lover's cross for you You really got to hand it to ya 'cause girl you really tried But for every time that we spent laughin' There were two times that i cried And you were tryin' to make me your martyr And that's the one thing i just couldn't do 'cause baby, i can't hang upon no lover's cross for you 'cause tables are meant for turnin' And people are bound to change And bridges are meant for burnin' When the people and memories they join aren't the same Still i hope that you can find Another who can take what i could not He'll have to be a super guy Or maybe a super god 'cause i never was much of a martyr before And i ain't bout to start nothin' new And baby, i can't hang upon no lover's cross for you more about "Jim Croce - Lovers Cross", posted with vodpod

My child arrived just the other day, He came to the world in the usual way. But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay. He learned to walk while I was away. And he was talking 'fore I knew it, and as he grew, He'd say, "I'm gonna be like you, dad. You know I'm gonna be like you." And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, Little boy blue and the man in the moon. "When you coming home, dad?" "I don't know when, But we'll get together then. You know we'll have a good time then." My son turned ten just the other day. He said, "Thanks for the ball, dad, come on let's play. Can you teach me to throw?" I said, "Not today, I got a lot to do." He said, "That's ok." And he walked away, but his smile never dimmmed, Said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah. You know I'm gonna be like him." And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, Little boy blue and the man in the moon. "When you coming home, dad?" "I don't know when, But we'll get together then. You know we'll have a good time then." Well, he came from college just the other day, So much like a man I just had to say, "Son, I'm proud of you. Can you sit for a while?" He shook his head, and he said with a smile, "What I'd really like, dad, is to borrow the car keys. See you later. Can I have them please?" And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, Little boy blue and the man in the moon. "When you coming home, son?" "I don't know when, But we'll get together then, dad. You know we'll have a good time then." I've long since retired and my son's moved away. I called him up just the other day. I said, "I'd like to see you if you don't mind." He said, "I'd love to, dad, if I could find the time. You see, my new job's a hassle, and the kid's got the flu, But it's sure nice talking to you, dad. It's been sure nice talking to you." And as I hung up the phone, it occurred to me, He'd grown up just like me. My boy was just like me. And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, Little boy blue and the ma

Crosby, Stills & Nash - Southern Cross [Intro. (Acoustic Guitars)] Oooh ... Got out of town on a boat goin' to Southern islands Sailing a reach before a followin' sea She was makin' for the trades on the outside And the downhill run to Papeete Off the wind on this heading lie the Marquesas We got eighty feet of the waterline nicely making way In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you But on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away Think about Think about how many times I have fallen Spirits are using me larger voices callin' What Heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten (Around the world) I have been around the world (Lookin') Lookin' for that woman girl (Who knows she knows) Who knows love can endure And you know it will When you see the Southern Cross for the first time You understand now why you came this way 'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from is so small But it's as big as the promise, the promise of a comin' day So I'm sailing for tomorrow my dreams are a dyin' And my love is an anchor tied to you tied with a silver chain I have my ship and all her flags are a' flyin' She is all that I have left and music is her name Think about Think about how many times I have fallen Spirits are using me larger voices callin' What Heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten (I've been around the world) I have been around the world (Lookin') Lookin' for that woman girl Who knows love can endure And you know it will, and you know it will yes [Instrumental (Electric Guitars)] Oooh ... So we cheated and we lied and we tested And we never failed to fail it was the easiest thing to do You will survive being bested Somebody fine will come along make me forget about loving you At the southern cross [Ending (Acoustic Guitars)] more about "Crosby, Stills & Nash - Southern Cross", posted with vodpod

Brad Paisley - Whiskey Lullaby She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin' to forget We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind Until the night 1st Chorus He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger And finally drank away her memory Life is short but this time it was bigger Than the strength he had to get up off his knees We found him with his face down in the pillow With a note that said I'll love her till I die And when we buried him beneath the willow The angels sang a whiskey lullaby (Sing lullaby) The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath She finally drank her pain away a little at a time But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind Until the night 2nd Chorus She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger And finally drank away his memory Life is short but this time it was bigger Than the strength she had to get up off her knees We found her with her face down in the pillow Clinging to his picture for dear life We laid her next to him beneath the willow While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby (Sing lullaby) more about "Brad Paisley - Whisky Lullaby", posted with vodpod
