Oh yes Rayzor....

Here's one for our lovely Rayzor who is known for loving all of the Songfactor ladies... :shades:

Burning Love

Elvis Presley

(words & music by Linde)

Lord Almighty,

I feel my temperature rising

Higher higher

It's burning through to my soul

Girl, girl, girl

You gonna set me on fire

My brain is flaming

I don't know which way to go

Your kisses lift me higher

Like the sweet song of a choir

You light my morning sky

With burning love

Ooh, ooh, ooh,

I feel my temperature rising

Help me, I'm flaming

I must be a hundred and nine

Burning, burning, burning

And nothing can cool me

I just might turn into smoke

But I feel fine

Cause your kisses lift me higher

Like a sweet song of a choir

And you light my morning sky

With burning love

It's coming closer

The flames are reaching my body

Please won't you help me

I feel like I'm slipping away

It's hard to breath

And my chest is a-heating

Lord Almighty,

I'm burning a hole where I lay

Cause your kisses lift me higher

Like the sweet song of a choir

You light my morning sky

With burning love

With burning love

Ah, ah, burning love

I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

We love you too Kevin! :)

Devil Inside ~ INXS

Here come the woman

With the look in her eye

Raised on leather

With flesh on her mind

Words as weapons sharper than knives

Makes you wonder how the other half die

Other half die

Here come the man

With the look in his eye

Fed on nothing

But full of pride

Look at them go

Look at them kick

Makes you wonder how the other half live

The devil inside

The devil inside

Every single one of us the devil inside

The devil inside

The devil inside

Every single one of us the devil inside

Here come the world

With the look in its eye

Future uncertain but certainly slight

Look at the faces

Listen to the bells

Its hard to believe we need a place called hell

Gloria Estefan & The Miami Sound Machine

Bad boy, bad boy

Bad boy, bad boy

Boys will be boys, bad boy, bad boy

Boys will be boys, bad boy.bad boy

Boys will be boys, bad boy, bad boy

Always gettin' so restless, nothin' but trouble

Boys will be boys, bad boy, bad boy

Bad, bad, bad, bad boy, you make me feel so good

Bad, bad, bad, bad boy, you make me feel so good, knew you would

The way you hold me tight you get me so excited

Get me feelin' breathless, nothin' but trouble

And when he drives me home

I feel safe at night

You call me on the phone

Boys will be boys, bad boy, bad boy

Always gettin' so restless, nothin' but trouble

Boys will be boys, bad boy, bad boy

Get me feelin' breathless, nothin' but trouble

Boys will be boys, bad boy, bad boy

Here's one for Laurie {With apologies to Weird Al}

Ooh, my little hungry one, hungry one

Open up a package of my SALAMI

Ooh, I think the toast is done, the toast is done

Top it with a little of my SALAMI

Never gonna stop, eat it up

Such a tasty snack I always eat too much, then throw up

But I'll soon be back for my, my, my, yi, yi, woo

M-m-m-my SALAMI

Spreadin' on the mustard now, show me how

Spread it on a litle of this SALAMI

Hopin' that we don't run out, don't run out

If we do I'm sure that I'll miss SALAMI

Never gonna stop, eat it up

Such a tasty snack I always eat too much, then throw up

But I'll soon be back for my, my, my, yi, yi, woo

M-m-m-my SALAMI

M-m-m-my SALAMI

(belch)

Goin' to the market now, market now

I'm the city's biggest SALAMI buyer

Walkin' down the shopping isles, shopping isles

Filling up my basket with Oscar Meyer

Never gonna stop, eat it up

Such a tasty snack I always eat too much, then throw up

But I'll soon be back for my, my, my, yi, yi, woo

M-m-m-m-m-m-m-my, my, my, yi, yi, woo

M-m-m-my SALAMI

M-m-m-my SALAMI

M-m-m-my SALAMI

M-m-m-my SALAMI

I always think of this song about a strong yet soft beautiful woman, and that is how I see you Shawna. For you dear friend.

Gypsy ~ Fleewood Mac

So Im back, to the velvet underground

Back to the floor, that I love

To a room with some lace and paper flowers

Back to the gypsy that I was

To the gypsy... that I was

And it all comes down to you

Well, you know that it does

Well, lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice

Ah, and it lights up the night

And you see your gypsy

You see your gypsy

To the gypsy that remains faces freedom with a little fear

I have no fear, I have only love

And if I was a child

And the child was enough

Enough for me to love

Enough to love

She is dancing away from me now

She was just a wish

She was just a wish

And a memory is all that is left for you now

You see your gypsy

You see your gypsy

Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice

And it all comes down to you

And it all comes down to you

Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice

And it all comes down to you

I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes

And it all comes down to you

I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes

And it all comes down to you

I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes

(she was just a wish)

(she was just a wish)

And it all comes down to you

Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice

And it all comes down to you

Laurie, you remind me of me and my friends in high school. Always fun and just a good cool persson to have as a friend. Imagine if we were in school together, oh my...look out! This one's for you girlfriend!

Girls Just Want To Have Fun ~ Cyndi Lauper

I come home in the morning light

My mother says when you gonna live your life right

Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones

And girls they want to have fun

Oh girls just want to have fun

The phone rings in the middle of the night

My father yells what you gonna do with your life

Oh daddy dear you know you're still number one

But girls they want to have fun

Oh girls just want to have -

That's all they really want

Some fun

When the working day is done

Girls - they want to have fun

Oh girls just want to have fun

Some boys take a beautiful girl

And hide her away from the rest of the world

I want to be the one to walk in the sun

Oh girls they want to have fun

Oh girls just want to have

That's all they really want

Some fun

When the working day is done

Girls - they want to have fun

Oh girls just want to have fun,

They want to have fun,

They want to have fun....

Right back at ya Laurie! :)

This one is for ryansgirl, Shannon. You are truly a beautiful person inside and out, so sweet and just a wonderful woman.

Beautiful ~ Christina Aguilera

Every day is so wonderful

Then suddenly,

It's hard to breathe

Now and then, I get insecure

From all the pain

I'm so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say

Words can't bring me down

I am beautiful in every single way

Yes, words can't bring me down, oh no

So, don't you bring me down today

To all your friends, you're delirious,

You're so consumed

In all your doom,

Trying hard to fill the emptiness,

The pieces gone,

Left the puzzle undone

Is that the way it is?

'Cause you are beautiful no matter what they say

Words can't bring you down, oh no

'Cause you are beautiful in every single way

Yes, words can't bring you down, oh no

So, don't you bring me down today

No matter what we do,

(No matter what we do)

No matter what we say,

(No matter what we say)

We're the song inside the tune

(Yeah, oh yeah)

Full of beautiful mistakes

And everywhere we go,

(And everywhere we go)

The sun will always shine

(The sun will always shine)

And tomorrow we might awake

On the other side

'Cause we are beautiful no matter what they say

Yes, words won't bring us down, no no

We are beautiful in every single way

Yes, words can't bring us down, oh no

So, don't you bring me down today

Don't you bring me down today

Don't you bring me down today

Jane is bringing on the water works today

This is to Jane. Kris Kirstofferson wrote it, but Janis gave it soul

ME & BOBBY MCGEE--Janis Joplin

Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train

And I's feelin' near as faded as my jeans

Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained

It rode us all the way into New Orleans

I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana

I's playin' soft while Bobby sang the blues, yeah

Windshield wipers slappin' time, I's holdin' Bobby's hand in mine

We sang every song that driver knew, yeah

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose

Nothin' don't mean nothin' hon' if it ain't free, no no

And feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues

You know, feelin' good was good enough for me

Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

From the Kentucky coal mine to the California sun

There Bobby shared the secrets of my soul

Through all kinds of weather, through everything we done

Yeah, Bobby baby kept me from the cold

One day up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away

He's lookin' for that home and I hope he finds it

But I'd trade all o' my tomorrows for one single yesterday

To be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose

Nothin', that's all that Bobby left me, yeah

But if feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues

Hey, feelin' good was good enough for me, mm-hmm

Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

La-da-da La-da-da-da La-da-da da-da da-da

La-da-da da-la-da la-da, Bobby McGee, yeah

La-da-la-da-la-da La-da-la-da-da

La-da-la-da-la-la, Bobby McGee, yeah

La-da-da La-da-da La da-da La da-da

La-da-da La da-da La da-da

Hey, my Bobby, Lord, my Bobby McGee, yeah

Lo-da-lo da-la-lo-da-la

Lo-da-la-lo da-la-lo la-la-lo la-la-lo la-la

Hey, my Bobby, Lord, my Bobby McGee, yeah

Lord, I call him my lover, call him my man

I said I call him my lover, did the best I can, c'mon

Hey now Bobby now, hey now Bobby McGee, yeah

La-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-la

Hey, hey, hey, Bobby McGee, Lord!

------ instrumental break ------

La-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la

Hey, hey, hey, Bobby McGee, yeah

This one is dedicated to rayzor, because I'm still convinced he is a spy for the Canadian government, thus explaining is lengthy and frequent absences.

Johnny Rivers - Secret Agent Man

There's a man who leads a life of danger

To everyone he meets he stays a stranger

With every move he makes another chance he takes

Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow

Secret agent man, secret agent man

They've given you a number and taken away your name

Beware of pretty faces that you find

A pretty face can hide an evil mind

Ah, be careful what you say

Or you'll give yourself away

Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow

Secret agent man, secret agent man

They've given you a number and taken away your name

------ lead guitar ------

Secret agent man, secret agent man

They've given you a number and taken away your name

Swingin' on the Riviera one day

And then layin' in the Bombay alley next day

Oh no, you let the wrong word slip

While kissing persuasive lips

The odds are you won't live to see tomorrow

Secret agent man, secret agent man

They've given you a number and taken away your name

Secret agent man

I just realized this may be a bit vague. This is dedicated to the gorgeous Shawna.

For my Stevie lovin' woman...

You can ride high atop your pony

I know you won't fall...

'Cause the whole thing's phony.

You can fly swinging from your trapeze

Scaring all the people

But you'll never scare me

Bella donna...

And we fight... for the northern star

No speed limit... this is the fast lane

It's just the way that it is here

And you say... I never thought it could

Bella donna... we fight...

For the northern star

And the lady's feeling

Like the moon that she loved

Don't you know that the stars are

A part of us

And the lady's feeling

Just like the moon that she loved

And you say... I never thought it could

Bella donna...

Come in out of the darkness...

You are in love with...

And I'm ready to sail...

It's just a feeling...

Sort of captures your soul

Bella donna...

And the woman may be awestruck

And the woman may truly care

But the woman is so tired...

So the woman disappears...

Come in out of the darkness...

Bella donna... my soul...

Don't change... baby please don't change

And you say...

And your face becomes thin

You never thought it could

Come in out of the darkness

Bella donna...

You are in love with

And I'm ready to sail

It's just a feeling...

This one is for bluesy

A belated thanks Sweet Jane and a song dedication to you to take you back... :)

Bryan Adams - Summer Of '69

I got my first real six-string

Bought it at the five-and-dime

Played 'til my fingers bled

It was summer of '69

Me and some guys from school

Had a Band and we tried real hard

Jimmy quit and Jody got married

I shualda known we'd never get far

Oh when I lock back now

That was seemes to last forever

And if I had the choice

Ya - I'd always wanna be there

Those were the best days of my life

(CHORUS)

Ain't no use in complainin'

When you got a job to do

Spent my evenin's down at the drive in

And that's when I met you

Standin on a mama's porch

You told me that you'd wait forever

Oh and when you held my hand

I knew that it was no or never

Those were the best days of my life

(Chorus) Back in Summer of '69

Man we were killin' time

We were young and restless

We needed to unwind

I guess nothin' can last forever, no

And now the times are changin'

Look at everything that's come and gone

Somethimes when I play that old six-string

I think about ya wonder what went wrong

Standin' on a mama's porch

You told me it would last forever

Oh the way you held my hand

I knew that it was now or never

Those were the best days of my life

(Chorus) Back in summer of '69

:cool:

Lola ~ The Kinks

I met her in a club down in old Soho,

where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola.

C-o-l-a cola.

She walked up to me and she asked me to dance.

I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said,

Lola

L-o-l-a Lola.

Well I'm not the world's most physical guy

but when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine.

Oh my Lola, L-o-l-a Lola.

Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand

why she walked like a woman and talked like a man.

Oh my Lola, L-o-l-a Lola.

Well we drank champagne and danced all night

under electric candlelight.

She picked me up and sat me on her knees and said:

Dear boy won't you come home with me?

Well I'm not the world's most passionate guy

But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola.

Lola, Lo-lo-lo-lo-Lola

Lola, Lo-lo-lo-lo-Lola

I pushed her away.

I walked to the door.

I fell to the floor.

I got down on my knees.

Then I looked at her and she at me.

Well that's the way that I want it to stay.

And I always want it to be that way for my Lola.

Lo-lo-lo-lo-Lola

Girls will be boys and boys will be girls.

It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world. (except for Lola)

Lo-lo-lo-lo-Lola

Well I left home just a week before.

And I'd never ever kissed a woman before.

But Lola smiled and took me by the hand.

And said: "Dear boy I'm gonna make you a man."

Well I'm not the world's most masculine man.

But I know what I am, and I'm glad I'm a man and so's Lola.

Lo-lo-lo-lo-Lola

Lo-lo-lo-lo-Lola...

And to return the favor, here's a little something from the Stones. This one's called...."Lady Jane"

"My sweet Lady Jane

When I see you again

Your servant am I

And will humbly remain

Just heed this plea my love

On bended knees my love

I pledge myself to Lady Jane

My dear Lady Anne

I've done what I can

I must take my leave

For promised I am

This play is run my love

Your time has come my love

I've pledged my troth to Lady Jane

Oh my sweet Marie

I wait at your ease

The sands have run out

For your lady and me

Wedlock is nigh my love

Her station's right my love

Life is secure with Lady Jane"

:afro: :afro: :afro: :rockon: :rockon: :rockon:
