Jimmy Buffett - A Pirate Looks at Forty

 

Yes I am a pirate, two hundred years too late

The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder

I'm an over-forty victim of fate

Arriving too late, arriving too late

From the back of my deck

Caught a fish caught a breeze

And a thousand red sunsets

But sitting here with you girl I just saw

The best one yet

 

Theres a difference in

Living and living well

I find it funny that the two lyrics I pick are of the heavy metal variety, and yet, I'm not a big fan...

Whose bed have your boots been under?

And whose heart did you steal I wonder?

This time did it feel like thunder, baby?

LOL. Anyone remember back in the late 60s maybe early 70s a DJ in Chicago that would record a fake newscast and include answers in song? Kind of like this

 

Where were you when this happened?

Cue music "smoking in the boy's room" . . .

 

Dionne Warwick

 

In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star

Weeks turn into years. How quck they pass

And all the stars that never were

Are parking cars and pumping gas

 

Days of the week

Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star,

And everybody's in movies, it doesn't matter who you are.

There are stars in every city,

In every house and on every street,

And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard

Their names are written in concrete!

Antonio Carlos Jobim - "One Note Samba"

 

This is just a little samba, built upon one note.

Other notes are bound to follow, but the root is still that note

 

New topic: notes

 

From George Strait aka The Man of Country Music

 

And emmylou got caught passing me a note

Before the teacher took it, I read what she wrote.

 

Do you love me, do you wanna be my friend?

And if you do, well then dont be afraid to take me by the hand

If you want to.

I think this is how love goes, check yes or no.

Sorry man. You must have posted it while I was typing. Go with his, folks.

I wish I could remember the exact lyrics to an old John Anderson song Look Away. He had a great line about music row in Nashville.

 

Instead

 

Alan Jackson

 

he's been readin' about Nashville and all

The records that everybody's buyin'

Says 'I'm a simple girl myself

Grew up on Long Island'

So she packs her bags to try to her hand

Says this might be my last chance

 

She's gone country, look at them boots

She's gone country, back to her roots

She's gone country, a new kind of suit

She's gone country, here she comes
