I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock I am an island

Grandyma Thu 12-Jan-23 18:54:39

Hey, hey, hey
If you want a chance, just join your hands with us
If you want to get up, get up and sing, yeah
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing

SachaMac Thu 12-Jan-23 17:36:46

Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standin' on their own two feet
And ringin' on their own bells, we say
Sisters are doin' it for themselves

Grandyma Thu 12-Jan-23 15:30:46

Hey little sister, what have you done
Hey little sister, who's the only one
Hey little sister, who's your superman
Hey little sister, who's the one you want
Hey little sister, shotgun
It's a nice day to start again
It's a nice day for a white wedding
It's a nice day to start again

Caleo Thu 12-Jan-23 15:23:16

"Then fire, make your body cold
I'm gonna give you mine to hold"
Saying this she climbed inside
To be his one, to be his only bride
And deep into his fiery heart (ooh)
He took the dust of Joan of Arc
And high above the wedding guests
He hung the ashes of her wedding dress

LadyHonoriaDedlock Thu 12-Jan-23 14:30:02

Well love's precious flame can just burn in vain
But you're not to blame
You thought love was a game and it's oh such a shame
But don't you cry, don't sigh, I'll tell you why
I'll never say goodbye blue angel

Grandyma Thu 12-Jan-23 13:55:00

No one on earth could feel like this
I'm thrown and overblown with bliss
There must be an Angel
Playing with my heart
I walk into an empty room
And suddenly my heart goes boom
It's an orchestra of Angels
And they're playing with my heart

Caleo Thu 12-Jan-23 13:51:13

She looks like an angel looks
She cooks like an angel cooks
And my mind in a kind of whirl
To my mind she's my kind of girl

Grandyma Thu 12-Jan-23 13:48:20

Is there anybody going to listen to my story
All about the girl who came to stay?
She's the kind of girl
You want so much, it makes you sorry
Still you don't regret a single day
Ah, girl, girl

Caleo Thu 12-Jan-23 13:37:30

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

lovebeigecardigans1955 Thu 12-Jan-23 12:07:45

Your love, lifting me higher
Than I've ever been lifted before
So keep it up,
Quench my desire
And I'll be at your side for ever more

SachaMac Thu 12-Jan-23 11:57:11

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

Who cares if one more light goes out?
In a sky of a million stars
It flickers, flickers
Who cares when someone's time runs out?
If a moment is all we are
We're quicker, quicker
Who cares if one more light goes out?
Well I do

SachaMac Wed 11-Jan-23 18:29:27

Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who cares
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who's there
Feeling unknown
And you're all alone
Flesh and bone
By the telephone
Lift up the receiver
I'll make you a believer

Alioop Wed 11-Jan-23 18:13:31

When you have been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there's no hope in sight
Sadness in my eyes
No one guessed
Or no one tried
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child

Grandyma Wed 11-Jan-23 17:33:44

Woman, I know you understand
The little child inside the man
Please remember my life is in your hands
And woman, hold me close to your heart
However distant, don't keep us apart
After all it is written in the stars

dayvidg Wed 11-Jan-23 17:28:36

And if it's bad
Don't let it get you down, you can take it
And if it hurts
Don't let them see you cry, you can make it
Hold your head up, woman
Hold your head up, woman
Hold your head up, woman
Hold your head high

Grandyma Wed 11-Jan-23 16:08:47

You raise the left arm up
And your right arm too
Let me tell you just what to do
Start both of 'em to flapping
You start your feet to kicking
That's when you know
You doin' the funky chicken

dayvidg Wed 11-Jan-23 15:29:52

You men eat your dinner, eat your pork and beans
I eat more chicken than any man ever seen, yeah, yeah
I'm a back door man

LadyHonoriaDedlock Wed 11-Jan-23 15:00:12

It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day
I was out choppin' cotton, and my brother was balin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat
And mama hollered out the back door, y'all, remember to wipe your feet
And then she said, I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge
Today, Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge

SachaMac Wed 11-Jan-23 14:00:49

I've seen people turn their heads
And quickly look away
Like a newborn baby
It just happens everyday
I look inside myself
And see my heart is black
I see my red door
I must have it painted black

Alioop Wed 11-Jan-23 13:14:34

It's warm in and out
The pulse of flowing love
Spread the calm to meet the others
Pleasure fills with love 'til dawn
It's warm in and out
The call for sacred hours
The soft chant of new-born singing
The magic force of your feelings

Caleo Wed 11-Jan-23 12:55:35

Summertime....and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'...and the cotton is high
Yo' daddy's rich...and yo' mama's good-lookin'
So hush little baby......don't you cry
One of these mornin's..you gonna rise up singin'
You gonna spread your little wings...and you'll take to the sky
But 'till that mornin'...there ain't nothin' gonna harm you
With yo mama and daddy...standin' bye

LadyHonoriaDedlock Wed 11-Jan-23 10:55:38

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half-dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

Caleo Wed 11-Jan-23 10:24:37

I'll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day through
In that small cafe
The park across the way
The children's carousel
The chestnut trees
The wishing well
I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day
In everything that's light and gay
I'll always think of you that way
I'll find you in the morning sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you

Grandyma Tue 10-Jan-23 23:25:03

Every breath you take
And every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you
