The Lyrics Game.......

[Four2Zero]

Oops! Totally right JDR.

Your new one stumped me and Google!

I guess I should mention that Goodbye Yer Honor is actually a Kingfish song featuring Bobby Weir... even though some Dead centric sites call it Bobby Weir and Kingfish, the band was actually called just Kingfish.. not splitting hairs here, just sharing. awesome band back when.. I was lucky enough to see them several times as well as Frank Z. Whoa! Good Stuff.

 

[Jack D Ripper]

Youre right, I couldnt remember who he played it with. I like that "Wild Northland" song by kingfish. I knew that tune would stump google, thats why I posted it. =)

Its "We were getting high" by The Mother Truckers. Theres no lyrics for them anywhere, but heres the song: http://themothertruckers.com/songs/weweregettinghigh_intro.mp3

how about this one:
"corn in the fields, listen to the rice when the wind blows 'cross the water
king harvest will surely come"

 

[ToKEN]

the band - king harvest




I'm praying for rain
I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way
I wanna watch it all go down

"Ain't you the guy who used to set the paces
Rising up infront of a hundred faces
I don't suppose you would remember me
But I used to follow you back in '63"

 

[Irishslappop]

The Who - Bellboy

Fast lane baby, ain't nothin like it
some play it cool, some get excited

spend all your cash tryin to fight it.

5th gear by Andre Nickatina... had to google that one

how about the song in my sig:
"We'll meet again, dont know where, dont know when,
but I know we'll me again some sunny day"

bonus points if you know what movie features this song while a doomsday machine destroys the world with nuclear bombs

 

[Stoner4Life]

We'll meet again....... Vera Lynn


Do you wanna be the player
Do you wanna be the string
Let me tell you something
It just don't mean a thing

 

[ToKEN]

emerson lake and palmer - still you turn me on

smoked myself stupid and drank my insides raisen dry

Alkaline Trio - Private Eye


Dog bite
On my leg
Not right
Supposed to beg

 

[PazVerdeRadical]

dead kennedys - dog bite

"..ready for whatever that is where i want to be, able to destroy any enemy in front of me or inside of me, see, that's the jewel, if i overlook the enemy within then i'm a fool; can't judge a book by its cover, can't trust every sister or brother, because they could be undercover..."

my guess is rap
which is not R & R nor R & B.......

Dead Prez anyway


Dead Kennedys ... Dog Bite

And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now

 

[FallenBuddha]

thunder clap newman, something in the air.

i'll be in my basement room.
with a needle and a spoon.
and another girl to take my pain away.

peace -fb

 

[Jack D Ripper]

ooo I love that tune in the big lebowski! "Dead flowers" by the rolling stones, but they play the townes van zandt version

"If I ever get out of here, Im giving it all away.
to a registered charity, all I need is a joint a day
If I ever get out of here (if I ever get out of here)"

 

[FallenBuddha]

wings, band on the run.

Black napalese, it's got you weak in your knees
Sneeze some dust that you got buzzed on
You know it's hard to believe

peace -fb

Humble Pie, 30 days in the hole

Please keep the faith, we need it.
If you're tired of the human race,
and you can't find yourself in pace,
there's too many games goin round
and the Man's tryin to bring you down.

But pardon me bitch, as I shit on your grass
That means hoe, you been shit-ted on!

"Time and again I tell myself, I'll stay clean tonight. But the little green wheels are following me. Oh no, not again."

 

[genkisan]

Oh we sail away at the break of day
to pull traps in oilskin trousers
On the Suzy Jack, but tonite we're back
wit' a t'ousand pounds o' lobsters
