    The Great Lyrics Thread

    Just heard a Willie Nelson cover of the Allman Brothers classic, Midnight Rider on the radio. What a graet tune! Post your favorite lyrics here. And I don't care if it's not strictly "skiing related". You're missing the point.

    Well, Ive got to run to keep from hiding,
    And Im bound to keep on riding.
    And Ive got one more silver dollar,
    But Im not gonna let them catch me, no,
    Not gonna let em catch the midnight rider.

    And I dont own the clothes Im wearing,
    And the road goes on forever,
    And Ive got one more silver dollar,
    But Im not gonna let them catch me, no
    Not gonna let em catch the midnight rider.

    And Ive gone by the point of caring,
    Some old bed Ill soon be sharing,
    And Ive got one more silver dollar,

    Repeat three times and fade
    But Im not gonna let em catch me, no
    Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider

    You're annoying.


    Here you go. i woulda posted "satan's bed" but hpd would have not been pleased. censoring fascist ( ):

    "Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town"

    i seem to recognize your face
    haunting, familiar, yet i can't seem to place it
    cannot find the candle of thought to light your name
    lifetimes are catching up with me
    all these changes taking place, i wish i'd seen the place
    but no one's ever taken me
    hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
    hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
    i swear i recognize your breath
    memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
    me, you wouldn't recall, for i'm not my former
    it's hard when, you're stuck upon the shelf
    i changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate
    perhaps that's what no one wants to see
    i just want to scream...hello...
    my god its been so long, never dreamed you'd return
    but now here you are, and here i am
    hearts and thoughts they fade...away...
    hearts and thoughts they fade...away...
    hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
    hearts and thoughts they fade...

    Im the one who has to die
    when its time for me to die.
    So let me live my life
    the way I want to.

    FLOGGING MOLLY

    "Never Met A Girl Like You Before"

    I would wrap the world in clover
    But you make me see my way
    And I would die for you tomorrow
    Would you come to me today?
    Sing a song of sadness about the girl with the happy face
    And dance upon the water with a ripple or a trace

    Love is here any cloud in the sky
    Would you be my flushing bride?
    I don't think so
    But I never met a girl like,
    I never met a girl like,
    I never met a girl like you before

    I'd climb the highest mountain
    To the sunrise from your face
    Light a million candles
    To flicker to your name
    Scream aloud with vengeance
    With the wind beneath my breath
    Do you understand the madness?
    Do you recognize the grace?


    Love is here any cloud in the sky
    Would you be my flushing bride?
    I don't think so
    But I never met a girl like
    I never met a girl like
    I never met a girl like
    I never met a girl like you before,

    Oh no I never met a girl like you before
    Oh no I never met a girl like you before

    I'd surely die and liro
    Waiting for your every call
    Will I ever see your sunshine?
    When I'm done playing it all

    A boy with no companion
    Lost for baby blue
    Words more then mean it
    When they count for one like you

    Love is here any cloud in the sky
    Would you be my flushing bride?
    I don't think so
    But I never met a girl like
    I never met a girl like
    I never met a girl like
    I never met a girl like you before,

    Oh I never met a girl like
    Never met a girl like
    Never met a girl like you before

    Oh no I never met a girl like you before
    Oh no I never met a girl like you before
    Oh no I never met a girl like you before

    Truly any song by Flogging Molly could have been chosen. Check this band out if you haven't before.
    Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.

    Snowfall by Reckless Kelly. This song was featured in Warren Miller's Storm a few years back.

    A hundred and ten don't mean nothing to me.
    I've seen fourty below when the rivers freeze.
    But the ground here's bare and the skies are clear.
    I'm packing my gear and I'm out of here.

    When the snow falls down
    I'll be on my way to a Western town.
    When Winter rolls around
    I'll be halfway home to a Mountain town.
    Where the snow falls down.

    I'm heading up North for some piece of mind.
    I'm leaving my baby and my worries behind.
    I'm going to find my freedom, brother you should too.
    And if you don't do it now you'll be one year older when you do.

    When the snow falls down
    I'll be on my way to a Western town.
    When Winter rolls around
    I'll be halfway home to a Mountain town.
    Where the snow falls down.

    I like Flogging Molly but they've dropped off my radar. Might have to do some downloads. If you like FM you'd like The Pogues.

    KT22 (you from Tahoe?) I gave that tune a listen. Little twangy for my tastes but it's a nice. Cool lyrics.

    I usually use MusicMatch or i-tunes to grab stuff I already know about. But check out pandora internet radio to discover new stuff you might like. You plug in stuff you like and it uses all kinds of ways (common genres, common musicians, producers etc) to find and play for you other stuff that it calculates might appeal to you. Then you rate that stuff and it fine tunes your preferences and its choices. It really works too. I ended up hearin' tunes that I think are great but I hadn't heard in years (and had forgotten about) and have discovered new stuff. Give it a try.

    Since I was born they couldn't hold me down
    Another misfit kid, another burned-out town

    Never played by the rules I never really cared
    My nasty reputation takes me everywhere

    I look and see it's not only me
    So many others have stood where I stand
    We are the young so raise your hands

    They call us problem child
    We spend our lives on trial
    We walk an endless mile
    We are the youth gone wild
    We stand and we won't fall
    We're the one and one for all
    The writing's on the wall
    We are the youth gone wild

    Boss screamin' in my ear about who I'm supposed to be
    Getcha a 3-piece Wall Street smile and son you'll look just like me

    I said "Hey man, there's something that you oughta know.
    I tell ya Park Avenue leads to Skid Row."

    I look and see it's not only me
    We're standin' tall ain't never a doubt
    We are the young, so shout it out

    They call us problem child
    We spend our lives on trial
    We walk an endless mile
    We are the youth gone wild
    We stand and we won't fall
    We're the one and one for all
    The writing's on the wall
    We are the youth gone wild

    They call us problem child
    We spend our lives on trial
    We walk an endless mile
    We are the youth gone wild
    We stand and we won't fall
    We're the one and one for all
    The writing's on the wall
    We are the youth gone wild
    We are the youth gone wild

    :P
