Remember When We Used To Post Lyrics Here..

Hi,
I think music helps heal the soul, heres one of my favoites.....

Memphis Tennesee, By Chuck Berry, I like Elvis' version....

Long distance information give me Memphis Tennesee
Help me find the party that tried to get in touch with me
She did not leave her number but I know which place to call
Cause my uncle took the message and he wrote it on the wall

Last time I saw Marie she was waving me good bye
With only tear drops on her face that trickled from her eyes
Marie is only 6 years so information please
Help me find this party please in Memphis Tennesee

Help me information more than that I can not add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
But we were torn apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennesee

I love Tennesee, been their a few times, anyway,
thought maybe it might be fun to change the pace a little..

Take care...................................God bless.......................................Bob

Are you from Mempho or do you just like Elvis?
Just wondering. I'm from Memphis. Frayser Chick in the house! :~)
Hi Bob!
Glad I caught you before I "shut down".
Loved your song lyrics - dont think I know that one - but since it has "Marie" in it I like it even better!!! LOL
I hope you are doing well - I know you were supposed to be having some surgery. Is everything OK? I hope so.
Well, its after midnight - so this is Day 1 for me again, hon- wish me luck. I know youre always there and love you for it.

I agree with you on "changing the pace" around here. I'm getting ready to hit the hay! All I can think of is ......

Marie
Hi,
I like Elvis, I'm an Elvis fan..lol still...lol
Yeah the surgery went well thankyou, I just started feeling a little better today.
I was able to just relax at home, so I didn't need any meds. I almost caved in, but hung in there, thanks to God, Gina and my dad, and so many others.
I really do thankyou for theprayers and well wishes it means alot.
Take care..................................God bless.........................................Bob
Thanks alot Bob, now that song will be running thru my head as I try to sleep.
Marie,
Hang in there, you'll be ok, we all have 1 day. Thats all we can ask for.
Your desire to stay clean is greater than your desire to use, I know you'll be fine.
With the help of prayer, and your friends your support will get you through the good and bad times.
Take care......................................God bless......................................Bob
I WANT TO PLAY THIS GAME!! <SMILE>
My name is kerry and I am new..
here is my all time favorite Bob Marley song..

ride natty ride

Dready got a job to do
And he's got to fulfill that mission
To see his hurt is their greatest ambition, Yeah!
Buta we will survive in this world of competition
Cause no natter what they do,
Natty keep on comin' through
And no matter what they say
Natty de deh everyday..
Natty dread rides again
Through the mystics of tomorrow,
Natty Dread rides again;
have no fear, have no sorrow, Yeah!

All and all you see a-gwan
is to fight against Rastaman
So they build their world in great confusion
To force on us the devil's illusion
But the stone that the builder refuse
Shall be the head conerstone
and no matter what game they play,
Eh, we got something they could never take away;
We got something they could never take away

And its the fire its the fire
Thats burning down everything
Feel that fire the fire
Only the birs have their wings, yeah!
No time to be decieved
oh brothers, you should know and not believe
Jah say this judgement it could never be with water, no water could put out this fire

Cause now the fire is out of control
panic in the city, wicked weeping for their gold
everywhere this fire is burning
destroying and melting their gold
destroying and wasting their soulds

tell you what: now the people gather on the beach
and the leader try to make a speech
but the dreadies understandin that its too late
fire is burning, man pull your own weight

riding through the storm,
riding through the calm
oh ride natty ride
etc..
Love the lyrics to this song, I find it really inspiring so just wanted to share it with you all.....

AFFIRMATION
By Savage Garden

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other peoples hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because its bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem
I believe in love when Im completely by myself alone

I believe in karma, what give is what you get returned
I believe you cant appreciate real love till youve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you dont know what youve got until you say goodbye

I believe you cant control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important then monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more then money or gold
I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only one to disagree are millionaires

I believe in karma, what give is what you get returned
I believe you cant appreciate real love till youve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you dont know what youve got until you say goodbye

I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse TV Evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity

I believe in karma, what give is what you get returned
I believe you cant appreciate real love till youve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you dont know what youve got until you say goodbye

Hugs
Charmed
Beautiful as always Charmed.
Love,
Marie
Charmed what a delight you are hun jackie xx
Hey Guys,

Was just listening to some Aerosmith (my fav - Steven Tyler) and love this song, since its not too long, thought I would share.

Amazing

I kept the right ones out
And let the wrong ones in
Had an angel of mercy to see me
through all my sins
There were times in my life
When I was goin' insane
Trying' to walk through
the pain

When I lost my grip
And I hit the floor
Yeah, I thought I could leave but couldnt
get out the door
I was so sick and tired
Of livin' a lie
I was wishin' that I
Would die

Chorus:
It's Amazing
With the blink of an eye you finally see
the light
It's Amazing
When the moment arrives that you know
you'll be alright
It's Amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate
hearts tonight

That one last shot's a Permanent Vacation
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Lifes's a journey not a destination
And I can't tell just what tomorrow brings

You have to learn to crawl
Before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen to all that
righteous talk
I was out on the street
Just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay
Alive

Chorus


Have a nice night.
Love,
Marie
Hi Marie,
Aerosmith is great, thanks for the lyrics. Hope your doing well this evening.
Take care..............................God bless............................................Bob
Hi guys!
This is one I sing every now and then around the house.
It was written and sung by Merle Haggard.
My first thought when I heard this song was, I could have written this
For Gina.

Dealin' With The Devil

I used to live with the whiskey
And the good timin' ladies of the night
Then the whiskey took things over
and left me waltzing with the wiches in my mind
But imaginary bottles won't be everywhere
To haunt me like before
Cause I'm not dancin' with those demons
I'm not dealing with that devil anymore

So go to sleep my weary lady
Heaven knows you've done your chore
You were sent here just to save me
And I'm not dancin' with those demons
I'm not dealing with that devil anymore

It don't matter where you came from
All I know is that you gave me back my pride
You reached out your hand and saved a man
Who had slid about as far as he could slide
And you probably came from heaven
Who else could have sent you but the Lord
Cause I'm not dancin' with those demons
I'm not dealing with that devil anymore

So go to sleep my weary lady
Heaven knows you've done your chore
You were sent here just to save me
And I'm not dancin' with those demons
I'm not dealing with that devil anymore

Take care........................God bless......................................Bob
Bob,
"When I'm back on my feet again" by Michael Bolton is and always has been one of my best sobriety songs. briar
Here is one from John Mayer..
Great indoors..(and it is much better to the music)
Check you pulse it's proof
That you're not listening to
The call your life's been issuing you
The rhythm of a line of idle days

Scared of a world outside
You should go explore
Pull all the shades and
wander the great indoors
The great indoors

Lamplight makes the shadows play
And posters take the walls away
The T.V. is your window pane (Or here, you could put computer..lol..)
The view won't let you down
So put your faith in a late night show
I bet you didn't even know
Depends on how far out you go
The channel numbers change

Scared of a world outside
You should go explore
Pull all the shadesand
Wander teh great indoors

Though lately I can't blame you
I have seen the world
And sometimes wish your room
Had room for two

So go unlock the door
And find what yhou are here for
Leave the great indoors
Please leave the great indoors

Check your pulse its proof
That you're not listening to
The call your life's been issuing you
Teh rhythm of a line of idle days
Bob, Marie, LittleBeach....all great songs! Wish I'd said that...lol.....thanks...xoxo
Under the Bridge
The Red Hot CHili Peppers

Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
Sometimes Ifeel that my only friend
Is the city I live in , the cit of angels
Lonely as I am, together we cry

I drive on her streets 'cause she's my comapanion
I walk through her hills 'cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and she kisses me windy
I never worry, now that is a lie.

I don't ever want to feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way
It's hard to believe that there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe that I'm all alone
At least I have her though, the city she loves me
Lonely as I am, together we cry

I don't ever want to feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way
Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away.
Here is one by creed...

When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Can you take me higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To a place with golden streets

Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same

The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Can you take me higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To a place with golden streets

So let's go there, lets go there
Come on, lets go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Up high I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine

racheal, I love the chilis...here's one

Red Hot Chili Peppers

Don't Forget Me
to me, this is the addict singing...lol...

I'm an ocean in your bedroom
Make you feel warm
Make you want to re-assume
Now we know it all for sure

I'm a dance hall dirty breakbeat
Make the snow fall
Up from underneath your feet
Not alone, I'll be there
Tell me when you want to go

I'm a meth lab first rehab
Take it all off
And step inside the running cab
There's a love that knows the way

I'm the rainbow in your jail cell
All the memories of
Everything you've ever smelled
Not alone, I'll be there
Tell me when you want to go

Sideways falling
More will be revealed my friend
Don't forget me
I can't hide it
Come again make me excited

I'm an inbred and a pothead
Two legs that you spread
Inside the tool shed
Now we know it all for sure

I could show you
To the free field
Overcome and more
Will always be revealed
Not alone, I'll be there
Tell me when you want to go

Sideways falling
More will be revealed my friend
Don't forget me
I can't hide it
Come again get me excited

I'm the bloodstain
On your shirt sleeve
Coming down and more are coming to believe
Now we know it all for sure

Make the hair stand
Up on your arm
Teach you how to dance
Inside the funny farm
Not alone, I'll be there
Tell me when you want to go
This is for All,

"I Believe in You."
Bob Dylan , from the album: "Slow Train Coming" (1979):

"They ask me how I feel
And if my love is real
And how I know I'll make it through.
And they, they look and me and frown,
They'd like to drive me from this town,
They don't want me around
'Cause I believe in you.

They show me to the door,
They say don't come back no more
'Cause I don't be like they'd like me to,
And I walk out on my own
A thousand miles from my home
But I don't feel alone
'Cause I believe in you.

I believe in you even through the tears and the laughter,
I believe in you even though we be apart.
I believe in you even on the morning after.
Oh, when the dawn is nearing
Oh, when the night is disappearing
Oh, this feeling is still here in my heart.

Don't let me drift too far,
Keep me where you are
Where I will always be renewed.
And that which you've given me today
Is worth more than I could pay
And no matter what they say
I believe in you.

I believe in you when winter turn to summer,
I believe in you when white turn to black,
I believe in you even though I be outnumbered.
Oh, though the earth may shake me
Oh, though my friends forsake me
Oh, even that couldn't make me go back.

Don't let me change my heart,
Keep me set apart
From all the plans they do pursue.
And I, I don't mind the pain
Don't mind the driving rain
I know I will sustain
'Cause I believe in you."

Columbia Records, 1979.
Bob Dylan, 1979.
Lyrics written by Bob Dylan

I believe in everyone of you. Not only through the tough times, but through the joyful times, too.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Happy Halloween to all.

Ben
