luciabOh, this is too cool! Stolen from deza:
Let's play the Song Game:
I'll post a lyric to kick it off. Post other song lyrics in response--one line, a chorus, however much it takes to say what you want to say. The lyrics you post must have some relation to the lyrics you are responding to. Post as often as you like, to as many different responses as you like. All responses should be song lyrics, with the band identified in the subject line. Let's see how many different songs we can find; feel free to be obscure; try to infect people with earworms.
I'll start with the Grateful Dead, in honor of today's weather.
Just a box of rain, wind and water,
Sun and shower, wind and rain,
In and out the window like a moth before a flame.
And it's just a box of rain, I don't know who put it there,
Believe it if you need it, or leave it if you dare.
And it's just a box of rain, or a ribbon for your hair;
Such a long long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.

Date: 2005-09-14 04:54 pm (UTC)In winslow, arizona
And such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my lord, in a flatbed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
Artist: Eagles
Album: Eagles
Title: Take It Easy
Well, i'm running down the road
Tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women on
My mind,
Four that wanna own me,
Two that wanna stone me,
One says she's a friend of mine
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels
Drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
And take it easy
Well, i'm a standing on a corner
In winslow, arizona
And such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my lord, in a flatbed
Ford slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is
Gonna save me
The Weight
Date: 2005-09-14 10:30 pm (UTC)I just need some place where I can lay my head.
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No!", was all he said.
