What I said was…

Don't stop the music
ROBYN Lyrics


This little girl didn't care what anybody said
She got the whole world dancing to the music in her head
They love to trush her, bad, laugh at her and call her names
oh yeah
And now they all try to copy her isn't that a shame
yeah, it all just made her stronger

Don't stop, stop the music
The world will keep turning if you use it
Get up there and Don't stop, stop the music
People keep dancing
you can do it
Baby come on
Yeah baby come on

He knew that he was different
This luck he couldn't win
They didn't dig his vision
They tried to fit him in
But there's no room for loosers
Until they make you change
And then you love them
Tell me how much longer

Don't stop, stop the music
The world will keep turning if you use it
Get up there and Don't stop, stop the music
People keep dancing
you can do it
Baby come on
Yeah baby come on

You got perfect vibe
you got a perfect smile
You're unlike anybody
That's your own shine
come on
If you just keep on dancing
Then you will feel no pain
Baby it's your Decision
Only you can break the chain
Yeah
So all you gotta do is dance
come on

Music like love
floating in the air
you can reach out
grab it everywhere
showing you your special
God put it on earth
to make it all
make it worth living
while the worlds still spinning

Don't stop, stop the music
The world will keep turning if you use it
Get up there and Don't stop, stop the music
People keep dancing
you can do it
Baby come on
Yeah baby come on

good evening all !
going through my record collection ... this is from a four-set collection simply called "SATCHMO" :

Artist: Louis Armstrong
Song: Black and blue


Cold empty bed springs hurt my head
Feels like ole ned wished I was dead
What did I do to be so black and blue

Even the mouse ran from my house
They laugh at you and all that you do
What did I do to be so black and blue

I'm white inside but, that don't help my case
That's life can't hide what is in my face

How would it end ain't got a friend
My only sin is in my skin
What did I do to be so black and blue

How would it end I ain't got a friend
My only sin is in my skin
What did I do to be so black and blue

---------------------------------------------------
i'm glad i have a soft bed , no bedsprings poking me Smile

Hey, Try. Stop the world; I want to get off, but not before I listen to the music by the bros. Razz



Dont you feel it growin, day by day
People gettin ready for the news
Some are happy, some are sad
Oh, we got to let the music play
What the people need
Is a way to make em smile
It aint so hard to do if you know how
Gotta get a message
Get it on through
Oh now mama, dont you ask me why

Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time

Well I know, you know better
Everything I say
Meet me in the country for a day
Well be happy
And well dance
Oh, were gonna dance our blues away
And if Im feelin good to you
And youre feelin good to me
There aint nothin we cant do or say
Feelin good, feeling fine
Oh, baby, let the music play

Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time

Like a lazy flowing river
Surrounding castles in the sky
And the crowd is growing bigger
Listnin for the happy sounds
And I got to let them fly

Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time

Hey, hamburger. Love Louis, Canada, and love that song.

hamburger, It just occurred to me that the hawk and the pup ain't with us today. Sheeeze. Hope all is well, 'cause I do remember Louis singing Hello Dolly and I once sang that for BioBob.

Well, this is for you and for me and the turtle:

Halcyon Days
Ogden Nash

How pleasant to sit on the beach,
On the beach, on the sand, in the sun,
With ocean galore within reach,
And nothing at all to be done!
No letters to answer,
No bills to be burned,
No work to be shirked,
No cash to be earned,
It is pleasant to sit on the beach
With nothing at all to be done!

How pleasant to look at the ocean,
Democratic and damp; indiscriminate;
It fills me with noble emotion
To think I am able to swim in it.
To lave in the wave,
Majestic and chilly,
Tomorrow I crave;
But today it is silly.
It is pleasant to look at the ocean;
Tomorrow, perhaps, I shall swim in it.
How pleasant to gaze at the sailors.
As their sailboats they manfully sail
With the vigor of Vikings and whalers
In the days of the Vikings and whale.
They sport on the brink
Of the shad and the shark;
If its windy they sink;
If it isn't, they park.
It is pleasant to gaze at the sailors,
To gaze without having to sail.

How pleasant the salt anesthetic
Of the air and the sand and the sun;
Leave the earth to the strong and athletic,
And the sea to adventure upon.
But the sun and the sand
No contractor can copy;
We lie in the land Of the lotus and poppy;
We vegetate, calm and aesthetic,
On the beach, on the sand, in the sun.

Now there is one clever writer, folks.

Later a dedication to John of Virginia.

Good morning, WA2K listeners and contributors. As promised, a dedication to John of Virginia:

Artist/Band: Williams Hank Jr
Lyrics for Song: Move It On Over

Came in last night at a half past ten that baby of my wouldn't let me in
So move it on over (move it on over) move it on over (move it on over)
Move over little dog cause the big dog's movin' in
She changed the lock on our front door now my door key don't fit no more
So get it on over (get it on over) scoot it on over (scoot it on over)
Scoot over skinny dog cause the fat dog's movin' in
This doghouse here is mighty small but it's better than no house at all
So ease it on over (move it on over) drag it on over (move it on over)
Move over old dog cause a new dog's movin' in

She told me not to play around but I done let her deal go down
So pack it on over (pack it on over) tote it on over (tote in on over)
Move over nice dog's cause a mad dog's movin' in
She warned me once she warned me twice but I don't take no one advice
So scratch it on over (scratch it on over) shake it on over (shake it over)
Move over short dog cause the tall dog's movin' in

She'll crawl back to me on her knees I'll be busy scratchin' please
So slide it on over (move it on over) sneak it on over (move it on over)
Move over good dog's cause a mad dog's movin' in
Remember up before you whine that side of door ain't this side of mine
Su shut it on over (shot it on over) sweep it on over (sweep it on over)
Move over cold dog cause the hot dog's movin' in.

Just kidding, of course, RJB, but it seems that I couldn't help your friend, 'cause I don't see her nowhere. Razz

Good morning…


I'm Just A Singer
(In A Rock And Roll Band)
Moody Blues Lyrics

I'm just a wand'ring on the face of this earth
Meeting so many people who are try'n to be free
And while I'm trav'lin I hear so many words
Language barriers broken, now we've found the key
And if you want the wind of change to blow about you
And you're the only other person to know, don't tell me
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.

A thousand pictures can be drown from one word
Only who is the artist, we gotta agree
A thousand miles can lead so many ways
Just to know who is driving, what a help it would be
So if you want this world of yours to turn about you
And you can see exactly what to do, please tell me
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.

How can we understand riots by the people
For the people who are only destroying themselves
And when you see a frightened person who is frightened by the people
Who are scorching this earth, scorching this earth.

I'm just a wand'ring on the face of this earth
Meeting so many people who are try'n to be free
And while I'm trav'lin I hear so many words
Language barriers broken, now we've found the key
And if you want the wind of change to blow about you
And you're the only other person to know, don't tell me
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.

I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.

How can we understand riots by the people
For the people who are only destroying themselves
And when you see a frightened person who is frightened by the people
Who are scorching this earth, scorching this earth.

Music is the traveler crossing the world
Meeting so many people bridging the seas
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band
Music is the traveler crossing the world
Meeting so many people bridging the seas
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band
We're just the singers in a rock and roll band.

Good morning, Try. Moody blues is "just a singer" and here is "just a stranger".

Dedicated to my oldest sister who is going to have a birthday:

Natalie Merchant
» Poor Wayfaring Stranger

I am a poor wayfaring stranger
Travelling through this world of woe
But there's no sickness, toil or danger
In that bright land to which I go

Well I'm going there
To meet my mother
Said she'd meet me when I come
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home

I know dark clouds
Will gather 'round me
I know my way
Will be rough and steep
But beautiful fields lie just before me
Where God's redeemed
Their vigils keep

Well I'm going there
To meet my loved ones
Gone on before me, one by one
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home

I'll soon be free of earthy trials
My body rest in the old church yard
I'll drop this cross of self-denial
And I'll go singing home to God

Well I'm going there
To meet my Savior
Dwell with Him and never roam
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home.

That's our hymn for Sunday, listeners, and all done in a minor key. Strange, my sister is quite cosmopolitan, but loves those songs.

Our hawkman is having equipment problems, but is all right. Nothing from our Raggedy as yet.

(Now And Then There's) A Fool Such As I
Elvis Presley

[Written by W Trader, Billy Marvin and William Marvin]

(Now and then there's a fool such as I)
Pardon me, if I'm sentimental
When we say goodbye
Don't be angry with me should I cry
When you're gone, yet I'll dream
A little dream as years go by
Now and then there's a fool such as I

Now and then there's a fool such as I am over you
You taught me how to love
And now you say that we are through
I'm a fool, but I'll love you dear
Until the day I die
Now and then there's a fool such as I

Now and then there's a fool such as I am over you
You taught me how to love
And now you say that we are through
I'm a fool, but I'll love you dear
Until the day I die
Now and then there's a fool such as I
Now and then there's a fool such as I
Now and then there's a fool such as I


The song was also a standard of Hank Snow

Say, Letty, perhaps you and the WA2K listeners can help me. I'm looking for a THEME SONG for a leadership group that trains future community leaders. The "up & comers" range in age from 25 to 60 and are evenly split male/female.

Any suggestions, anyone?

Cindy's Birthday
Johnny Crawford (played Mark McCain in the TV series, The Rifleman)

No time for the movie show, TV, or the radio
Gotta write a symphony, end it with some poetry
Tie them with a ribbon made of gold and give them to Cindy
Today is Cindy's birthday

No time for geometry, 'rithmetic, or history
Gotta write a song from my heart, then pick the greatest work of art
Tie them with a ribbon made of gold and give them to Cindy
Today is Cindy's birthday



No time to do the Twist, don't mind all the things I miss
Gotta write a melody, write it from the heart of me
Tie it with a ribbon made of gold and give it to Cindy
Today is Cindy's birthday

Yes, Cindy's happy birthday

Well, folks, I tried to find Hank Johnson, but all I got was his chin. Anyone know what chin music is? Razz

Anyway, here is Isaac's song:

Theme from "Shaft"
Isaac Hayes

Shaft
Who's the black private dick
that's a sex machine to all the chicks?
(Shaft!)
You're damn right
Who is the man
that would risk his neck for his brother man?
(Shaft!)
Can ya dig it?
Who's the cat that won't cop out
when there's danger all about
(Shaft!)
Right on
You see this cat Shaft is a bad mother--
(Shut your mouth)
But I'm talkin' about Shaft
(Then we can dig it)
He's a complicated man
but no one understands him but his woman
(John Shaft)

And here's an answer to edgar's Cindy by the Man in Black:

I wish I was an apple, a-hangin' on a tree and every time my Cindy passed, she'd take a little bite of me.

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home. Get along home, Cindy, Cindy, I'll marry you one day.

Well, Cindy is my honey the sweetest in the south, when we kissed to bees would all swarm around her mouth.

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home. Get along home, Cindy, Cindy, I'll marry you one day.

Well, I wish I had a needle and thread, fine as I could sow. I'd sow my Cindy to my side and down the road I'd go.


Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home. Get along home, Cindy, Cindy, I'll marry you one day.

Well, Cindy got religion. She'd had it once before, she grabbed my ole banjo, man and throw it on the floor.

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home. Get along home, Cindy, Cindy, I'll marry you one day.

Well, it's apples in the summer time, peaches in the fall. If I can't have the gal I want I won't have none at all.

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home. Get along home, Cindy, Cindy, I'll marry you one day.

Cindy hugged and kissed me, she hung her head and cried, I swore she was the prettiest thing that ever lived or died.

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home. Get along home, Cindy, Cindy, I'll marry you one day
I'll marry you one day

Well, we know some of our European friends are okay. Walter is being a bad boy on the picture forum.

Good Timin'
Jimmy Jones

[Written by Ballard and Frederick]

Oh, you need timin'
A tick, a tick, a tick, good timin'
A tock, a tock, a tock, a tock
A timin' is the thing
It's true, good timin' brought me to you

If little, little David hadn't grabbed that stone
Alyin' there on the ground
Big Goliath might've stomped on him
Instead of the other way 'round

But he had timin'
A tick, a tick, a tick, good timin'
A tock, a tock, a tock, a tock
A timin' is the thing
It's true, good timin' brought me to you

Who in the world would've ever known
What Columbus could do
If Queen Isabella hadn't hocked her jewels
In fourteen ninety two

But she had timin'
A tick, a tick, a tick, good timin'
A tock, a tock, a tock, a tock
A timin' is the thing
It's true, good timin' brought me to you

What would've happened if you and I
Hadn't just happened to meet
We might've spent the rest of our lives
Walkin' down Misery Street

But we had timin'
A tick, a tick, a tick, good timin'
A tock, a tock, a tock, a tock
A timin' is the thing
It's true, good timin' brought me to you

Yeah, we had timin'
Whoa, whoa, whoa, good timin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, timin' is the thing
It's true, good timin' brought me to you

Neil Young
» Slowpoke

Something opened up
the gates again,
I can't control it,
so I rushed right in.
Here comes a mermaid
and a little girl,
Saw open drawers
from around the world.

I got some medals
hanging on my chest,
I've seen some good ones,
but I missed the rest.
Lady luck don't you turn on me,
I'm just a student of your history,
I'm just a student of your history.

Slowpoke I'm gonna run with you,
Wear all your clothes and

Slowpoke
we got some things to find,
When I was faster,
I was always behind,
When I was faster,
I was always behind.

Something pushed back
the curtain again,
The stage is empty
and the crowd is thin.
The song is gentle,
but the song is now.
Something's missing,
but something is found,
Something's missing,
but something is found,
Something's missing,
but something is found.

Slowpoke I'm gonna run with you,
Wear all your clothes and
do what you do.
Slowpoke

When I was faster,
When I was faster,
