My faborite Seger song!!!

STILL THE SAME LYRICS

Words and music by bob seger

You always won, everytime you placed a bet
You’re still damn good, no one’s gotten to you yet
Everytime they were sure they had you caught
You were quicker than they thought
You’d just turn your back and walk
You always said, the cards would never do you wrong
The trick you said was never piay the game too long
A gambler’s share, the only risk that you would take
The only loss you could forsake
The only bluff you couldn’t fake

And you’re still the same
I caught up with you yesterday
Moving game to game
No one standing in your way
Turning on the charm
Long enough to get you by
You’re still the same
You still aim high

There you stood, everybody watched you play
I just turned and walked away
I had nothing left to say

’cause you’re still the same
You’re still the same
Moving game to game
Some thlngs never change
You’re still the same

 

[Serena]

Cats in the Cradle.

And Bye, Bye, Miss American Pie.

That's a great one, Lollipop!! He has so many I love, I don't think I could pick one favorite, although Turn the Page is one of them. What a extremely talented songerwriter/singer--with the gold and platinum albums to prove it! I loved the concert I saw him at. The best I've ever been to.

 

[Serena]

I didn't see Bye, Bye, Miss American Pie

Did I post?

LOL No, they just remind me of each other, for some reason. :indiffere
Miss American Pie--the song that would not die.

If I Was Your Woman

Gladys Knight & The Pips

If I was you woman
And you were my man
You'd have no other woman
You'd be weak as a lamb
If you had the strenght
To walk out my door
My love would over rule my faith
And I'd call you back for more

If I was your woman
(If I was your woman)
If I was your woman
(If I was your woman)
And you were my man

Yeah
She tears you down Darling
Says you're nothing at all
But I'll pick you up Darling
When she lets you fall, 'cause
You're like a diamond
But she treats you like glass
Yet you beg her to love you
But me you won't ask

If I were your woman
(If I was your woman)
If I were your woman
(If I was your woman)
If I was your woman
Here's what I'd do
I'd never, never, no, no, no stop loving you

Yeah
Life is so crazy
And love is unkind
Because she was first darling
Will she hang on your mind
You're a part of me
But you don't even know it
I'm what you need
But I'm too afraid to show it

If I were your woman
(If I was your woman)
If I were your woman
(If I was your woman)
If I was your woman
Here's what I'd do
I'd never, never, no, no, no stop loving you

If I were your woman
Here's what I'd do
I'd never, never, never stop loving you

Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

If I were your woman
And you were my man
If I were your woman
And you were my man
If I were your woman
Here's what I'd do
I'd never, never, no, no, stop lovin' you
If I were your woman

MY WAY

And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, I’ll say it clear,
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain.

I’ve lived a life that’s full.
I’ve traveled each and ev’ry highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Regrets, I’ve had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;
And did it my way.

I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried.
I’ve had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it my way.

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!

Come To Poppa

If the sun
Ain't shining bright
And the moon the moon
Won't shine for you tonight
If the stars in the sky gone away
And you feel
Feelin' real low down today
If life gets hard to understand
And the whole thing is getting out of hand

Come to poppa
Come see your poppa

If you need a pacifier
Call me anytime
I'll try to be your satisfier
If you feel
Like a horse
Blazin' at the bit
Call my number
Anytime night or day
I'll get ya fixed

If life gets hard to understand
And your life is way out of hand
Come to poppa
Come see your poppa

Lol @ Lollipop thanks girl he wouldnt have to try to hard to satisfy me..i heard this song coming home today can you find it please its called "Distant Drums" its sung by Jim Reeves it was my Dads favourite song..I like that bit girl where it says any time day or night ..i'll get you fixed...promises promises.

 

[Lollipop]

For Heather for her Dad!!

Distant Drums

Jim Reeves

I hear the sound of distant drums
Far away, far away
And if they call for me to come
Then I must go and you must stay

So Mary marry me, let's not wait
Let's share all the time we can before it's too late
Love me now for now is all the time there may be
If you love me Mary, Mary marry me

I hear the sound of bugles blow
Far away, far away
And if they call, then I must go
Across the sea, so wild and grey.

So Mary marry me, let's not wait
For the distant drums might change our wedding date
And love me now, for now is all the time there may be
If you love me Mary, Mary marry me

 

[ORANGATUANG]

Thanks an bunch girl...

 

[Lollipop]

IF
Bread

If a picture paints a thousand words,
Then why can’t I paint you?
The words will never show the you I’ve come to know.
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
Then where am I to go?
There’s no one home but you,
You’re all that’s left me too.
And when my love for life is running dry,
You come and pour yourself on me.

If a girl could be two places at one time,
I’d be with you.
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
I’d spend the end with you.
And when the world was through,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Then you and I would simply fly away

 

[Amos Stevens]

Thanks Lollipop..I heard that song "If" before,but didn't know the name

Gotta love this song title

Do Virgins Taste Better


A dragon has come to our village today.
We've asked him to leave, but he won't go away.
Now he's talked to our king and they worked out a deal.
No homes will he burn and no crops will he steal.

Now there is but one catch, we dislike it a bunch.
Twice a year he invites him a virgin to lunch.
Well, we've no other choice, so the deal we'll respect.
But we can't help but wonder and pause to reflect.

Do virgins taste better than those who are not?
Are they salty, or sweeter, more juicy or what?
Do you savor them slowly? Gulp them down on the spot?
Do virgins taste better than those who are not?
Now we'd like to be shed you, and many have tried.
But no one can get through your thick scaly hide.
We hope that some day, some brave knight will come by.
'Cause we can't wait around 'til you're too fat to fly.

Now you have such good taste in your women for sure,
They always are pretty, they always are pure.
But your notion of dining, it makes us all flinch,
For your favorite entree is barbecued wench.

Now we've found a solution, it works out so neat,
If you insist on nothing but virgins to eat.
No more will our number ever grow small,
We'll simply make sure there's no virgins at all!

KODACHROME Lyrics


When I think back on all the crap I've learned in highschool
It's a wonder I can think at all
Though my lack of education hasn't hurt me much
I can read the writings on the walls

Chorus:
Kodachrome, they give us those nice bright colours
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nikon camera, I love to take a photograph
So mama don't take my Kodachrome away

If you took all the girls I knew when I was single
Brought 'em all together for one night
I know they'd never match my sweet imagination
Everything looks worse in black and white

chorus

Mama don't take my Kodachrome away, mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away

Mama don't take my Kodachrome, mama don't take my Kodachrome
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome and leave your boy so far from home
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome, whew whew, mama don't take my Kodachrome away

Funny Face
(Donna Fargo)

Funny face, I love you
Funny face, I need you
My whole world's wrapped up in you

When the road I walk seems all uphill
And the colors in my rainbow turn blue
You kiss the tears away
You smile at me and say
"Funny face (funny face) I love you"

Funny face, I love you
Funny face, I need you
These are the sweetest words I've ever heard
Funny face, don't leave me
Funny face, believe me
My whole world's wrapped up in you

And when I hurt your feelings as I sometimes do
And I say those mean things that we know are not true
You forgive my childish way
You hold me close and say
"Funny face (funny face) I love you"

Funny face, I love you
Funny face, I need you
These are the sweetest words I've ever heard
Funny face, don't leave me
Funny face, believe me
My whole world's wrapped up in you

Funny face, I love you
Funny face, I need you

These are the sweetest words I've ever heard
Funny face, don't leave me

It's Over

Best of friends
Never part
Best of fools has loved forever
From the bottom of her heart

So why pretend
This is the end
You'll have to find out for yourself
Go on ask somebody else

Why can't you just get it through your head
It's over, it's over now
Yes, you heard me clearly now I said
It's over, it's over now

I'm not really over you
You might say that
I can't take it, I can't take it
Lord, I swear I just can't take it no more

(Go away) go away
(Far away) so far away
It's too late to turn back now
And it don't matter anyhow

'Cause you were right
I'm to blame
Can't go on the same old way
Can't keep up the same old game

Why can't you just get it through your head
It's over, it's over now
Yes, you heard me clearly now I said
It's over, it's over now

I'm not really over you
You might say that
I can't take it, I can't take it
Lord, I swear I just can't take it no more

I LOVE this song, Storm!
Are you sure you didn't write this yourself?
It sounds like something you might create.
Soooo......who's in charge of making sure there are none left at all, eh?

 

[Storm]

I just liked the title I could not write something that good.

AFTER ALL
Duet between Cher and Peter Cetera

Well, here we are again
I guess it must be fate
We've tried it on our own
But deep inside we've known
We'd be back to set things straight

I still remember when
Your kiss was so brand new
Every memory repeats
Every step I take retreats
Every journey always brings me back to you

After all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who've been rescued from the fall
And after all that we've been through
It all comes down to me and you
I guess it's meant to be
Forever you and me
After all

When love is truly right
This time it's truly right
It lives from year to year
It changes as it grows
And oh the way it grows
But it never disappears

After all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who've been rescued from the fall
And after all that we've been through
It all comes down to me and you
I guess it's meant to be
Forever you and me
After all

Always just beyond my tough
Though I needed you so much
After all what else is living for
Whoa

After all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who've been rescued from the fall
And after all that we've been through
It all comes down to me and you
I guess it's meant to be
Forever you and me

After all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who've been rescued from the fall
And after all that we've been through
It all comes down to me and you
I guess it's meant to be
Forever you and me
After all​
