Today's Earworm

Going Up the Country

9/30/2018

Canned Heat

I'm goin' up the country, baby 
don't you want to go?
I'm goin' up the country, baby 
don't you want to go?
I'm goin' to some place, 
I've never been before

I'm goin' I'm goin' 
where the water tastes like wine
I'm goin' where the 
water tastes like wine
We can jump in the water, 
stay drunk all the time

I'm gonna leave this city, 
got to get away
I'm gonna leave this city, 
got to get away
All this fussin' and fightin' man, 
you know I sure can't stay

So baby pack your leavin' trunk
You know we've got to leave today
Just exactly where we're goin' I cannot say
But we might even leave the U.S.A.

It's a brand new game, 
that I want to play
No use in your runnin', 
or screamin' and cryin'
'Cause you got a home 
as long as I've got mine

Don't You Want Me

9/29/2018

The Human League

[Philip]
You were workin' as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up and turned you around
Turned you into someone new

Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But don't forget, it's me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too

[Philip]
Don't, don't you want me?
You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me
Don't, don't you want me?
You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me

It's much too late to find
You think you've changed your mind
You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry

[Philip]
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me, ohh?
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me, ohh?

[Susan]
I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true
But even then I knew I'd find a much better place
Either with or without you

The five years we have had have been such good times
I still love you
But now I think it's time I live my life on my own
I guess it's just what I must do

[Philip]
Don't, don't you want me?
You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me
Don't, don't you want me?
You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me

It's much too late to find
You think you've changed your mind
You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry

[Philip]
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me, ohh?
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me, ohh?

[Philip]
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me, ohh?
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me, ohh?

Spanish Harlem

9/28/2018

0 Comments

 
The Mamas & the Papas

There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
It is a special one
It's never seen the sun
It only comes out when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
It's growing in the street 
Right up through the concrete 
But soft and sweet and dreamy

There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
With eyes as black as coal
That look down in my soul 
And start a fire there and then I lose control
I have to beg your pardon
I'm gonna pick that rose 
And watch her as she grows in my garden

It is a special one 
It's never seen the sun
It only comes out when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
I'm gonna pick that rose 
And watch her as she grows in my garden

There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem

One More Night

Phil Collins

One more night, one more night
One more night ooh ooh ooh
One more night, one more night
One more night ooh ooh ooh

I've been trying ooh so long to let you know
Let you know how I feel
And if I stumble if I fall, 
just help me back
So I can make you see

Please give me one more night, 
give me one more night
One more night 
'cause I can't wait forever
Give me just one more night, 
oh just one more night
Oh one more night 
'cause I can't wait forever

I've been sitting here so long
Wasting time, just staring at the phone
And I was wondering should I call you
Then I thought maybe you're not alone

Please give me one more night, 
give me just one more night
Oh one more night, 
'cause I can't wait forever
Please give me one more night, 
ooh just one more night
Oh one more night, 
'cause I can't wait forever
Give me one more night, 
give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, 
'cause I can't wait forever

Like a river to the sea
I will always be with you
And if you sail away
I will follow you

Give me one more night, 
give me just one more night
Oh one more night, 
'cause I can't wait forever
I know there'll never be a time 
you'll ever feel the same
And I know it's only words
But if you change your mind, 
you know that I'll be here
And maybe we both can learn

Give me just one more night, 
give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, 
'cause I can't wait forever
Give me just one more night, 
give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, 
'cause I can't wait forever

Something's Coming On

9/26/2018

Blood, Sweat & Tears

Something coming on, 
don't know what it is but it's getting stronger
Feeling in my bones, 
hope you let it last a little bit longer
Breaking out my head, 
doing things I never even dreamed of
Rolling up my spine, 
turning on the things that'd never been turned on

Suddenly she came in
Looked like she'd been gaming
Doing things with everybody else
When I called out loud
She answered from the crowd
That she'd spend her life upon the shelf

Something coming on, 
don't know what it is but it's getting stronger
I've got a feeling in my bones, 
and I hope you let it last a little bit longer
Breaking out my head, 
I've been doing things I never even dreamed of
Well, rolling up my spine, 
turning on my things that'd never been turned on

Talk about the woman

Suddenly she came in
Looked like she'd been gaming
Doing things with everybody else
When I called out loud
She answered from the crowd
That she'd spend her life upon the shelf

The Guess Who

Have you been around
Have you done your share of comin' down
On different things that people do
Have you been aware
You got brothers and sisters who care
About what's gonna happen to you in a year from now

Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
I'm talkin' 'bout together now

Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
I'm talkin' 'bout together now

Did you pay your dues
Did you read the news
This mornin' when the paper landed in your yard
Do you know their names
Can you play their games
Without losin' track and comin' down a bit too hard
Oh

Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
I'm talkin' 'bout together now

Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
I'm talkin' 'bout together now

Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
I'm talkin' 'bout together now

Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
Together, together

you know I'll be standin' by
(Share the land) to help you if you're worried
(Shake your hand) no more sadness, no more sorrow
(Share the land) and no more bad times
(Shake your hand) every day comin' sunshine
(Share the land) every day everybody laughin'
(Shake your hand) walkin' together by the river
(Share the land) walkin' together and laughin'
(Shake your hand) everybody singin' together
(Share the land) everybody singin' and laughin'
(Shake your hand) good times, good times
(Share the land) everybody walkin' by the river now
(Shake your hand) walkin', singin', talkin'
(Share the land) smilin', laughin', diggin' each other

everybody happy together
(Share the land) I'll be there, don't worry, if you're needin' me
(Shake your hand) call on me, call on me
(Share the land) call my name, I'll be runnin' to help you
(Shake your hand) everybody walkin' by the river now
(Share the land) everybody, everybody laughin'
(Shake your hand) everybody singin' and talkin'

Easier Said Than Done

The Essex

My friends all tell me
Go to him, run to him,
Say sweet lovely things to him,
And tell him, he's the one.

Deep in my heart I know it,
But it's so hard to show it
Cause it's easier, easier said than done.

My buddies tell me
Fly to him, sigh to him,
Tell him I would die for him,
And tell him, he's the one.

Although he gives me a feeling
That sets my heart a-reeling,
Yet it's easier, easier said than done.

Well, I know that I love him so.
I'm afraid that he'll never know
Because I (I-I) I get so timid and shy
Each time that I look him in the eye.

They all tell me 
Sing to him, swing with him,
And just do anything for him,
And tell him, he's the one.

I got a love so true
But I'm sad and blue
Cause it's easier, easier said than done.

Well, I know that I love him so.
I'm afraid that he'll never know
Because I (I-I) I get so timid and shy
Each time that I look him in the eye.

They all tell me 
Sing to him, swing with him,
And just do anything for him,
And tell him, he's the one.

I got a love so true
But I'm sad and blue
Cause it's easier, easier said than done.
Easier-er-er-er, said than done.

Moody Blues

Won't you take me back to school
I need to learn the golden rule
Won't you lay it on the line
I need to hear it just one more time
Oh won't you tell me again
Can you feel it
Won't you tell me again
Tonight

Each and every heart it seems
Is bounded by a world of dreams
Each and every rising sun
Is greeted by a lonely one
Oh won't you tell me again
Can you feel it
Oh won't you tell me again
Tonight

'Cos out on the ocean of life my love
There's so many storms we must rise above
Can you hear the spirit calling
As it's carried across the waves
You're already falling
It's calling you back to face the music
And the song that is coming through
You're already falling
The one that it's calling you

Make a promise take a vow
And trust your feelings it's easy now
Understand the voice within
And feel the changes already beginning
Oh won't you tell me again
Can you feel it
Won't you tell me again
Tonight

And how many words have I got to say
And how many times will it be this way
With your arms around the future
And your back up against the past
You're already falling it's calling you
On to face the music
And the song that is coming through
You're already falling
The one it's calling is you

Each and every heart it seems
Is bounded by a world of dreams
Each and every rising sun
Is greeted by a lonely one
Won't you tell me again
Can you feel it
Oh won't you tell me again
Tonight

Red Rubber Ball

The Cyrkle

I should have known you'd bid me farewell
There's a lesson to be learned from this and I learned it very well
Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

You never care for secrets I confide
For you I'm just an ornament, somethin' for your pride
Always runnin', never carin', that's the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time were all ya had to give

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

The story's in the past with nothin' to recall
I've got my life to live and I don't need you at all
The roller-coaster ride we took is nearly at an end
I bought my ticket with my tears, that's all I'm gonna spend

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

Oh, oh, oh, I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

Way Over Yonder

Carole King

Way over yonder
Is a place that I know
Where I can find shelter
From a hunger and cold
And the sweet tastin' good life
Is so easily found
A way over yonder, that's where I'm bound

I know when I get there
The first thing I'll see
Is the sun shining golden
Shining right down on me
Then trouble's gonna lose me
Worry leave me behind
And I'll stand up proudly
In true peace of mind

Talkin' about
Talkin' about

A way over yonder
Is a place I have seen
In a garden of wisdom
From some long ago dream
Oh yeah

Ooh maybe tomorrow
I'll find find my way
To the land where the honey runs
In rivers each day
And the sweet tastin' good life
Is so easily found
A way over yonder
That's where I'm bound

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
A way over yonder
That's where I'm bound
