  1. Well, just look at me. I'm everybody's favorite Uncle and I have lots and lots of pretty (ahem) nieces.

    Your post made me laugh.I have an uncle by the name of Billy Joe and he's a very bad man.In fact he's a disgrace. :happybanana:

  2. Hi emf24 :: Your post made me think of this old one hit wonder from the 70's.It's beautiful and very touching.It may not be what your looking for though.Anyway here it is.

    Free Movement - I've Found Someone Of My Own

    I got up this morning

    While I was having my coffee

    My woman came in

    Sat down by my side

    With tears in her eyes

    She said, :I have a confession to make"

    And I said, ?Woman,

    Speak what?s on your mind?

    She said, ?I found somebody new

    To take your place?

    I said, ?Don?t feel so all alone

    I found someone of my own?

    On those lonely nights

    You left me all alone

    Oh my new love would call

    And comfort me on the phone

    And I said, ?Woman

    If that?s the way it?s gotta be,

    Then darlin?

    Don?t you worry ?bout me?

    She said, ?I found somebody new

    To take your place?

    I said, ?Don?t feel so all alone

    I found someone of my own?

    I got up form the table

    I reached down and wiped the tears from her face

    I put out my cigarette

    Turned and walked away

    She said, ?I found somebody new

    To take your place?

    I said, ?Don?t feel so all alone

    I found someone of my own?

  4. Thanks Edna......here's another good one that comes to mind.

    The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald

    by Gordon Lightfoot

    The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down

    Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee

    The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead

    When the skies of November turn gloomy.

    With a load of iron ore - 26,000 tons more

    Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty

    That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed

    When the gales of November came early

    The ship was the pride of the American side

    Coming back from some mill in Wisconson

    As the big freighters go it was bigger than most

    With a crew and the Captain well seasoned.

    Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms

    When they left fully loaded for Cleveland

    And later that night when the ships bell rang

    Could it be the North Wind they'd been feeling.

    The wind in the wires made a tattletale sound

    And a wave broke over the railing

    And every man knew, as the Captain did, too,

    T'was the witch of November come stealing.

    The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait

    When the gales of November came slashing

    When afternoon came it was freezing rain

    In the face of a hurricane West Wind

    When supper time came the old cook came on deck

    Saying fellows it's too rough to feed ya

    At 7PM a main hatchway caved in

    He said fellas it's been good to know ya.

    The Captain wired in he had water coming in

    And the good ship and crew was in peril

    And later that night when his lights went out of sight

    Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

    Does anyone know where the love of God goes

    When the words turn the minutes to hours

    The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay

    If they'd fifteen more miles behind her.

    They might have split up or they might have capsized

    They may have broke deep and took water

    And all that remains is the faces and the names

    Of the wives and the sons and the daughters.

    Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings

    In the ruins of her ice water mansion

    Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams,

    The islands and bays are for sportsmen.

    And farther below Lake Ontario

    Takes in what Lake Erie can send her

    And the iron boats go as the mariners all know

    With the gales of November remembered.

    In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed

    In the Maritime Sailors' Cathedral

    The church bell chimed, 'til it rang 29 times

    For each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald.

    The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down

    Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee

    Superior, they say, never gives up her dead

    When the gales of November come early.

  5. Roads To Moscow

    Words and Music by Al Stewart

    They crossed over the border the hour before dawn

    Moving in lines through the day

    Most of our planes were destroyed on the ground where they lay

    Waiting for orders we held in the wood

    Word from the front never came

    By evening the sound of the gunfire was miles away

    How softly we moved through the shadows slipped away through the trees

    Crossing their lines and the mists and the fields on our hands and our knees

    And now that I ever was able to see

    The fire in the air glowing red, silhouetting the smoke on the breeze

    All summer they drove us back through the Ukraine

    Smolensk and Vyazma soon fell

    By autumn we stood with our backs to the town of Orel

    Closer and closer to Moscow they come

    Riding the wind like a bear

    General Guderian stands at the crest of the hill

    Winter brought wither the rains, oceans of mud filled the roads

    Gluing the tracks of their tanks to the ground while the sky filled with snow

    And now that I ever was able to see

    The fire in the air glowing red, silhouetting the snow on the breeze

    In the footsteps of Napoleon the shadow figures stagger through the winter

    Falling back before the gates of Moscow standing in the wings like an avenger

    And far away behind their lines the partisans are stirring in the forest

    Coming unexpectedly upon their outposts, growing like a promise

    You'll never know you'll never know which way to turn which way to look you'll never see us

    As we're stealing through the blackness of the night you'll never know you'll never hear us

    And the evening sings in a voice of amber, the dawn is surely coming

    The morning road leads to Stalingrad and the sky is softly humming

    Two broken tigers on fire in the night

    Flicker their souls to the wind

    We wait in the lines for the final approach to begin

    It's been almost four years that I've carried a gun

    At home it will almost be spring

    The flames of the tigers are lighting the road to Berlin

    How quickly we move through the ruins that bow to the ground

    The old men and children they send out to face us they can't slow us down

    And now that I ever was able to see

    The eyes of the city are opening, now it's the end of the dream

    I'm coming home, I'm coming home now

    You can taste it in the wind, the war is over

    And I listen to the clicking of the train wheels as we roll across the border

    And now they ask me of the time that I was caught behind their lines and taken prisoner

    They only held me for a day, a lucky break I say

    They turn and listen closer

    I'll never know I'll never know why I was taken from the line and all the others

    To board a special train and journey deep into the heart of holy Russia

    And it's cold and damp in the transit camp

    And the air is still and sullen

    And the pale sun of October whispers the snow will soon be coming

    And I wonder when I'll be home again

    And the morning answers never

    And the evening sighs and the steely Russian skies go on for ever

  10. NEIL YOUNG LYRICS

    "Cinnamon Girl"

    I wanna live

    with a cinnamon girl

    I could be happy

    the rest of my life

    With a cinnamon girl.

    A dreamer of pictures

    I run in the night

    You see us together,

    chasing the moonlight,

    My cinnamon girl.

    Ten silver saxes,

    a bass with a bow

    The drummer relaxes

    and waits between shows

    For his cinnamon girl.

    A dreamer of pictures

    I run in the night

    You see us together,

    chasing the moonlight,

    My cinnamon girl.

    Pa sent me money now

    I'm gonna make it somehow

    I need another chance

    You see your baby loves to dance

    Yeah...yeah...yeah

  11. O.K. So I'm an old guy.I'm sure most of you young people never heard of

    "Heckle and Jeckle".They were sooooooo funny.Two magpies that got into all kinds of trouble.I remember one episode where their old car needed tires.They didn't have much cash so they bought the "Baloney Tires".As they drove away a pack of dogs gave chase and ate the tires and left the boys riding on the rims..Anyway it was funny to me at the time.

  12. This song is very touching.It's been stuck in my head for a long long time.

    Love (Can Make You Happy)

    by Mercy

    (written by Jack Sigler jr.)

    Wake up in the morning with the sunshine in your eyes

    And the smell of flowers blooming fills the air.

    Your mind is filled with the thoughts of a certain someone - that you

    love;

    Your life is filled with joy when she is there.

    Love can make you happy if you fine someone who cares

    To giiiive a life time to you and who has a love to shaaare.

    If you think you've found someone you'll love fooorevermore,

    Then it's worth the price you'll have to pay (pay).

    To have, to hold's important when forever is the phrase

    That means the love you've found is going to stay.

    Love can make you happy if you find someone who cares

    To giiiive a life time to you and who has a love to share.

    La-love, la-love

    Love can make you happy.

    Love can make you happy.

    Love can make you happy.

    Love...
