    Lyrics for Song: She's No Lady

    Lyrics for Album: Live in Texas

    She hates my mama

    She hates my daddy too

    She loves to tell me

    She hates the things I do

    She loves to lie beside me

    Almost every night

    She's no lady she's my wife

    The preacher asked her

    And she said I do

    The preacher asked me

    And she said yes he does too

    And the preacher said

    I pronounce you 99 to life

    Son she's no lady she's your wife

    And I can't remember

    How I met her

    Seems like she's always just been hanging here off my right arm

    And I can't remember

    How I ever

    Thought that I just couldn't live without a woman's charm

    And even though

    She loves the smell of French perfume

    And even though

    She walks around in high-heel shoes

    All I know

    Is I'm the one who pays her price

    Man she's no lady she's my wife

    And I can't remember

    How I met her

    Seems like she's always just been hanging here off my right arm

    And I can't remember

    How I ever

    Thought that I just couldn't live without a woman's charm

    Yea she hates my mama

    She hates my daddy too

    She loves to tell me

    She hates the things I do

    She loves to lie beside me

    Almost every night

    She's no lady she's my wife

  2. Two Little Boys

    Melody - Theodore F. Morse, 1903

    Edward Madden

    Two little boys

    Had two little toys,

    Each had a wooden horse;

    Gaily they played

    Each summer's day -

    Warriors both of course.

    One little chap

    Then had a mishap,

    Broke off his horse's head;

    Cried for his toy,

    Then cried for joy

    As his young playmate said:

    "Did you think I would leave you crying

    When there's room on my horse for two?

    Climb up here, Jack. we'll soon be flying;

    I can go just as fast with two.

    When we grow up we'll both be soldiers,

    And our horses will not be toys;

    And I wonder if we'll remember

    When we were two little boys."

    Long years passed,

    War came so fast;

    Bravely they marched away.

    Cannons roared loud

    And in the mad crowd

    Wounded and dying lay.

    Up went a shout -

    A horse dashes out,

    Out from the ranks so blue.

    Galloped away

    To where Joe lay

    And then came a voice he knew:

    "Did you think I would leave you dying

    When there's room on my horse for two?

    Climb up here, Joe, we'll soon be flying

    Back to the ranks so blue.

    Do you know, Joe, I'm all a-tremble,

    Perhaps it's the battle's noise;

    But I think it's that I remember

    When we were two little boys."

    I think Gary Glitter did a version.... ;)

    The 'out from the ranks so blue' line might be a clue....?

  3. Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed

    (kinky friedman)

    You uppity women I don’t understand

    Why you gotta go and try to act like a man,

    But before you make your weekly visit to the shrink

    You’d better occupy the kitchen, liberate the sink.

    Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed

    That’s what I to my baby said,

    Women’s liberation is a-going to your head,

    Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed.

    Early every morning you’re out on the street

    Passing out pamphlets to everyone you meet.

    You gave up your maiden form for lent

    And now the front of your dress has an air scoop vent.

    Every single brakeman that’s ever come along

    Had a little woman always tellin’ him that he’s wrong.

    Eve said to adam, ¡°here’s an apple you horse¡±

    And delilah defoliated samson’s moss.

    Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed

    That’s what I to my baby said,

    Women’s liberation is a-going to your head,

    Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed.

    Mean-hearted harpies are breaking all the laws

    Tearing up their girdles and a-burning up their bras,

    Now the air is dirty and the sex is clean

    And your coffee makes my hair turn green.

    So damn emancipated in your mind and your body,

    Gonna have to cancel all your lessons in karate.

    If you can’t love a male chauvinist

    You’d better cross me off your shopping list.

    Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed

    That’s what I to my baby said,

    Women’s liberation is a-going to your head,

    Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed.

  4. Quote:Metallica's Whisky in the Jar was a travesty

    No way! Metallica covers grow on me. Plus, it shows they have good taste.

    I can't imagine what else grows on you...warts? fungus? lichen? You'll be saying they're a bunch of generous multi-millionaires who don't really want to screw a few more 'hard earned' cents out of their fans, next. :bow:
  5. I had a brush with Nerve Rack once...but that doesn't count does it?...Who didn't I quite brush?.....the bloke who plays drums in my mates band once toured the US with the Selector (they supported that Ska rock band with the singer who's is married to the bloke from Bush)....I never met any of them :)

  6. I like the horns and brass bits in Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer".

    For some reason this reminds me of an old joke...what's the difference between a bull and the Peter Gabriel Band?....The bull has the horns at the front and the a$$hole at the back....boom boom :)

    (I quite like some of his stuff and the live DVD is AWESOME...it's just too good a joke to leave idle :shades: ) :):)

  7. Well, as she's been recording all my sentient life (I thought 'I got you Babe' was great when I was 10 and Gypsies Tramps and Thieves was a great song...when I was a teenager, and Turn Back Time was great when I was 30 odd...and 'Believe' made me wonder whether I was really a 40 year old Gay Disco Clubber at heart :) etc....She has cut some great songs in her time, great pins and obviously barking mad...you've got to love her... :):):)

  8. black eyed peas and avril lavigne, are they trying to make him turn in his grave??

    black eyed peas...they'd make him turn in his gravy. :)

    Could be a good thread here...which is the least appropriate arist to cover which song....Metallica's Whisky in the Jar was a travesty...but it doesn't count 'cos they've already done it....I'd pay good money not to hear U2 doing Stairway to Heaven... and even sell a child or two to avoid Coldplay covering Black Dog....what price N-Synch doing Rock the Casbah?

    :):)

  9. I've got some corkers but I'm too inept to post the pictures. If I click on image it asks for something with an HTTP// address, but my images are jpegs on my hard drive (in my pictures)how do I give them an http//address...can a more techy type person guide me through this...then you can see the 'Handless Organist' :)

    Unless it's already been linked to, of course...

  10. Quote:And I've never really understood the term "anal - retentive".

    Does it mean one is constipated?

    The expression anal retentive derives from psychoanalytic theory. Sigmund Freud theorized that after birth, a person progresses through a series of stages that, in a healthy individual, would reach an adult state of low anxiety, mental stability, the ability to interact with others, the ability to have a sexual relationship, etc. Freud's stages of normal psychosexual development were the oral stage, in which the mouth is the object of gratification; the anal stage, when the anus is the object, and the child is concerned with the retention or expulsion of feces; the phallic stage, when the child shifts its attention to the genitals, but not in an adult, heterosexual way; and the genital stage, when a person seeks gratification in a sexual relationship with another person.

    The interruption of any of these stages results in a fixation, which would have various consequences on an adult. A person interrupted at the late stage of the anal development is an anal retentive, and this is thought to result in adult personality or behavioral traits that include orderliness, rigidity, obstinacy, obsession with rules, meticulousness, and ungenerousness. The adjective anal alone denotes this stage, and hence denotes these traits. Despite its origin in psychoanalytic theory, anal is now in broad use, and is sometimes even considered to be a slang term. Example: "I've got to see a picture exactly from the start to the finish, 'cause I'm anal" (Woody Allen, Annie Hall).

    The word anal is first found in English in a 1930 psychoanalytic text; anal retentive appears by the late 1950s.

    That would be a 'yes' then? ;)
