"The Pass" by Rush


I've been baptized by your voice.
it screams from deep beneath the endless water.
and it's half as high as heaven
and half as clear as reason.
it's cold and and black like silt on the riverbed.

But I'm so comfortable.
Far too comfortable.
Why don't you kill me,
I'm weak and numb and insignificant,
and I'm back on my knees.
lost in euphoria.

Oh you can't take it with you
That's one thing for sure
There ain't nothin' in the world
That the T-Bone Shuffle won't cure
Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only then will you find that money cannot be eaten. - -Cree Indian Prophecy

Yes. :)

Boz Skaggs

All around is anger automatic guns
It's death in large numbers no respect for women or our little ones
I tried talking to Jesus but He just put me on hold
Said He'd been swamped by calls this week
And He couldn't shake His cold

Beautiful world

(it was T-bone Walker "T-bone shuffle")

I dream of fire
Those dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire
And in the flames
Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire
Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only then will you find that money cannot be eaten. - -Cree Indian Prophecy

Yep. By Colin Hay. I heard it on Scrubs and had to look it up. I think probably more than one person has covered the T Bone Shuffle. :)

Here's one I like to listen to on the first warm winter/spring day. It's an easy one. :)

Walk along the river, sweet lullaby, it just keeps on flowing,
It don't worry 'bout where it's going
Don't fly, mister blue bird, I'm just walking down the road,
Early morning sunshine tell me all I need to know

"There's a storm across the valley, clouds are rollin' in
the afternoon is heavy on your shoulders.
There's a truck out on the four lane, a mile or more away
the whinin' of his wheels just makes it colder."

Back Home Again - John Denver

(I've always liked John Denver - especially since I moved from WV because of his song "Country roads".)


Well, Ive been haunted in my sleep
You've been starring in my dreams
Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only then will you find that money cannot be eaten. - -Cree Indian Prophecy

Miss You - Rolling Stones

Yes, I received your letter yesterday
(About the time the door knob broke)
When you asked how I was doing
Was that some kind of joke?
All these people that you mention
Yes, I know them, they're quite lame
I had to rearrange their faces
And give them all another name
Right now I can't read too good
Don't send me no more letters no
Not unless you mail them from...

Desolation Row -- Bob Dylan


Try these lyrics:

The beer was empty and our
tongues were tired
And running out of things to say
She gave a kiss to me as I got out
And I watched her drive away.
Just for a moment I was
back at school
And felt that old familiar pain
And as I turned to make
my way back home
The snow turned into rain --
Ignorance and fanaticism are ravenous. They require constant feeding.

I love that song, FTW!!

Same Old Lang Syne by Dan Fogelberg


How about these?:

The first time my heart was ever touched
Was the day I lost your love
I can feel it in my flesh and blood
My soul can only take it so much

So there it is. Why can't you give us one more try
You and I could find a way to live
If you let me in one more time

Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today.~~James Dean

Sandy Eggo

Breakin' me (I don't know if it's a cover, but Johnny Lang)


It's not what you got, It's what you give
It ain't the life you choose, it's the life you live
It's only what you give
It's not what you got
But the life you live
It's the life you live

What You Give - Tesla

Just this side of Devil's Dream, above the sulphur mine
I found the man who robbed me of the girl I loved and lost
I asked him before he died what made him cross the line
He asked me did I mean the line I just stepped across?

For Love - Robert Earl Keen


I can't believe what you're doing to me
Just can't believe what you're doing
All of the lies you want me to believe
Who do you think you're fooling?

I give up. No, that's not the name of the song. :) I don't recognize and can't find it.

"2 Late 4 Goodbyes" - Jeff Beck

I can't believe what u're doing 2 me
Just can't believe what u're doing
All of the lies u want me 2 believe
Who do u think u're fooling?

Lately u got me thinking
Oh, why go on?
It�s all so plain 2 see
& I think we both agree that it's much...

Much 2 late (it's much 2 late) 4 goodbyes, oh it's much...
Much 2 late (it's much 2 late) 4 the lonely tears u cry

Nobody wins once the games all begin
Nobody�s into u're thinking
Your masquerade is the card that u play
Drowned by the bluff you're bringing

No truth 2 your confession
When will it end?
U were once my only 1
But now the damage is done, now it's much...

Much 2 late (it's much 2 late) 4 goodbyes, oh it's much...
Much 2 late (it's much 2 late) 4 the lonely tears u cry
Much 2 late (it's much 2 late) 4 goodbyes, oh it's much...
Much 2 late (it's much 2 late) 4 the lonely tears u cry

Much 2 late (it's much 2 late) 4 goodbyes, oh it's much...
Much 2 late (it's much 2 late) 4 the lonely tears u cry
Much 2 late (it's much 2 late) 4 goodbyes, oh it's much...
Much 2 late (it's much 2 late) 4 the lonely tears u cry


Here's another tune:

Must be getting early, clock are running late.
Paint my love a morning sky, it's all cold.
Dawn is breaking everywhere, light a candle, curse the glare
Draw the curtains I don't care, but it's alright
I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.
