When you're near
There's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere
Begin to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye

Dry your eyes, mate
I know it's hard to take, but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes, mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now, it's over

No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Cause cause cause I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Oba,observing the hypocrites yeah
Mingle with the good people we meet yeah
Good friends we have had,oh good friends we have lost along the way yeah
In the bright future you can't forget the past
So dry your tears I say yeah

Hello, woman of my dreams (hello, woman of my dreams)
Is this not the way it seems?
Purple words on a gray background
To be a woman and to be turned down
Old enough now to change your name
When so many love you is it the same?
It's the woman in you that makes you want to play this game

So once a year Granny takes a trip
To Hollywood and she's well equipped
For the movie auditions in Hollywood town
She always turns up but she's always turned down.

"Granny Takes A Trip" by: The Purple Gang (1967)

The preacher talked to me and he smiled
Said, "Come and walk with me
Come and walk one more mile
Now for once in your life you're alone
But you ain't got a dime
There's no time for the phone"
I've just got to get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on
I told him I'm in no hurry
But if I broke her heart
Then won't you tell her I'm sorry
And for once in my life I'm alone
And I've got to let her know just in time before I go
I've just go to get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on

Just a castaway, an island lost at sea
Another lonely day with noone here but me
More loneliness than a man can bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle

Good morning Mr Sunshine
You brighten up my day
Come sit beside me, in your way.
I see you every morning
Outside the restaurants
The music plays so nonchalant ( ah ah ah)

Lonely days, Lonely nights
Where would I be without my woman?

dayvidg Wed 05-Feb-25 15:36:15

I feel your fever from miles around
I'll pick you up in my car and we'll paint the town
Just kiss me, baby, and tell me twice
That you're the one for me
The way you make me feel (the way you make me feel)
You really turn me on (you really turn me on)
You knock me off of my feet (you knock me off of my feet)
My lonely days are gone (my lonely days are gone)

Grandyma Tue 04-Feb-25 20:41:58

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby, just a wrote me a letter
I don't care how much money I gotta spend
Got to get back to my baby again
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby, just-a wrote me a letter
Well, she wrote me a letter
Said she couldn't live without me no more
Listen mister, can't you see I got to get back
To my baby once-a more
Anyway, yeah
Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby, just-a wrote me a letter

65KL Tue 04-Feb-25 20:29:29

The letter you wrote me made me stop and wonder why
But I guess you felt like you had to set things right
Just rember this,my girl , when you look up in the sky
You can see the stars and still not see the light

And I'm already gone
And I'm feeling strong
I will sing this victory song
Woo hoo hoo Woo hoo hoo

dayvidg Tue 04-Feb-25 14:57:33

This is the letter that I, I didn't write
Looking for colour in the, the black and white
Skyscrapers we created on shaky ground
And I'm trying to find my patience
But you won't let me breathe
And I'm not ever right
All we are is talking
Over each other
There's nothing underneath
It's all a waste of time
All we are is talking
Over each other (over each other)
Over each other

Mother,do you think they'll drop the bomb
Mother,do you think they'll like this song
Mother,do you think they'll break my balls
Ooh,ahh Mother should I build the wall

Mother, should I run for president
Mother, should I trust the government
Mother, will they put me in the firing line
Ooh ahh is it just a waste of time

Grandyma Mon 03-Feb-25 21:46:59

Are they still getting down
Where we used to go and dance
Will our ball club win the pennant
Do you think, they have a chance?
And tell me friend, how in the world have you been?
Tell me, what's out and I want to know what's in

What's the deal man
What's happening? Tell me brother
What's happening brother?
Ah, what's happening brother?
What's happening my man?
Whoo, ah, ah, what's happening brother?
Say man, whoo, what's happening brother?

What's been shaking up and down the line?
I want to know because, I'm slightly behind the times

Grannmarie Mon 03-Feb-25 21:20:59

Oops, so sorry, I've mixed up my music threads!🤣

My brother Jake, hat, shades, head in a daze
My brother Jake, have you thought about changin' your ways?
He goes out, he don't have no doubt
He don't have to know what the world's about

Grannmarie Mon 03-Feb-25 16:25:11

The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where, who knows where
But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him,
He ain't heavy, he's my brother.
So on we go.
His welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bear
We'll get there.
For I know
He will not encumber me
He ain't heavy
He's my brother.

5 songs with brother in the titles/ lyrics

Grandyma Mon 03-Feb-25 15:15:16

Who knows where the road will lead us?
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way, all the way

dayvidg Sun 02-Feb-25 15:19:59

He who knows may pass on
The word unknown
And meet me on the desert shore
Meet me on the desert shore
Your winding winds stood so
All that is my own
Where land and water meet
Where on my soul I sit upon my bed
Your ways have led me to bleed

65KL Sun 02-Feb-25 06:09:27

After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days of the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story ot told was of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think ot was dead

You see I've been through the desert o a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
Cause there aint no one for to give you no pain
LA la la la la la

Grandyma Sat 01-Feb-25 23:07:26

I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
Crossed the desert's bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Of travel I've a-had my share, man
I've been everywhere

dayvidg Sat 01-Feb-25 17:09:07

Every Saturday night I get dressed up to ride for you, baby
Cruising down the street on Hollywood and Vine for you, baby
I drive fast, wind in my hair, push it to the limits 'cause I just don't care
You ask me where I've been?
I been everywhere
I don't wanna be nowhere but here
I've got a burning desire for you, baby

Grandyma Fri 31-Jan-25 22:57:03

The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on, burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal

dayvidg Wed 29-Jan-25 15:15:21

They say that all in love is fair
Yeah but you don't care
But you know what to do
When it gets hold of you
And with a little help from above
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love, can you feel it?

65KL Wed 29-Jan-25 03:01:57

What would you think if I sang out of tune
Would you stand up and walk out on me
Lend me your ear and I'll sing you a song
And I will try not to sing out of key
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
I get high with a little help from my friends
Gonna try with a little help from my friends

Grandyma Tue 28-Jan-25 23:27:52

What will I do when you are gone?
Who's gonna tell me the truth?
Who's gonna finish the stories I start
The way you always do?
When somebody knocks at the door
Someone new walks in
I will smile and shake their hands
But you can't make old friends
You can't make old friends
Can't make old friends
It was you and me, since way back when
But you can't make old friends
