    "Baby's got a bird, Holly's got bird that sings.......

  • tamaroa, i can hear this tune in my head, the tone and the melody and say the words with it.. but i can't think of the name of it..

  • One of my favorite female artists is the lengendary Janis Joplin..

    Her voice is fantastic, and she hits home with her lyrics.. songs such as
    "Maybe" "Take another piece of my heart" "One good man" the favorite of mine "Cry Cry Baby"
    When she sings i can just feel her, knowing her story what she went through.. amazing singer

    Here is one i really love.. hope you enjoy it, it's a very pretty song.

    Thank you tamaroa!!

  • A beautiful Song.....



    I will remember you
    Will you remember me?
    Don't let your life pass you by
    Weep not for the memories

    Remember the good times that we had?
    I let them slip away from us when things got bad
    How clearly I first saw you smiling in the sun
    Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one

    I will remember you
    Will you remember me?
    Don't let your life pass you by
    Weep not for the memories

    I'm so tired but I can't sleep
    Standing on the edge of something much too deep
    It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
    We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard

    But I will remember you
    Will you remember me?
    Don't let your life pass you by
    Weep not for the memories

    I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose
    Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose
    Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night
    You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light

    And I will remember you
    Will you remember me?
    Don't let your life pass you by
    Weep not for the memories

    And I will remember you
    Will you remember me?
    Don't let your life pass you by
    Weep not for the memories
    Weep not for the memories

  • Thats is a very beautiful song Pam!!

    Thank you for sharing that

  • Oh, Pammy...I love that song and it is one of my favorite song of hers.
    I have one for you too. Whenever I feel down and lost, I listen to this song and feel so much better.


    There's a hero if you look inside your heart
    You don't have to be afraid of what you are.
    There's an answer if you reach into your soul
    and the sorrow that you know will melt away

    And then a hero comes along
    with the strength to carry on
    and you cast your fears aside
    and you know you can survive.

    So, when you feel like hope is gone
    look inside you and be strong
    and you'll finally see the truth
    that a hero lies in you.

    It's a long road when you face the world alone,
    No one reaches out a hand for you to hold.
    You can find love if you search within yourself
    and the emptiness you felt will disappear.

    And then a hero comes along
    with the strength to carry on
    and you cast your fears aside
    and you know you can survive.

    So, when you feel like hope is gone
    look inside you and be strong
    and you'll finally see the truth
    that a hero lies in you.

    oh, ohhh,Lord knows dreams are hard to follow,
    But don't let anyone tear them away.
    Hold on, there will be tomorrow,
    In time you'll find the way

    And then a hero comes along
    with the strength to carry on
    and you cast your fears aside
    and you know you can survive.

    So, when you feel like hope is gone
    look inside you and be strong
    and you'll finally see the truth
    that a hero lies in you
    that a hero lies in ... you
    mmmm that a hero lies in.....you.



  • I love this one........................

    Anyone who has ever lost anyone knows what I mean when they hear it.

    A song, an oldie and I can't find it cause I don't know the name:
    "Baby's got a bird, Holly's got bird that sings.......


    I found these lyrics from your post:

    Got a bird wanta whistle
    baby's got a bird, y'all
    Honey's got a bird to sing
    yeah, baby's got a bird, y'all
    Honey's got a bird to sing
    Without Corinna,
    It sure don't mean, y'all
    It sure don't mean a natural thing

    I learned how to love you,
    Baby, 'fore I called ya,
    Honey, 'fore I called your name
    Yeah, baby, 'fore I called ya
    Honey, 'fore I called your name
    Can't buy your love with money
    Oh, baby, you're my woman
    Let me be your warm heart flame

    Have mercy, have mercy,
    Baby, on my hard luck
    Honey, on my bad luck soul
    Yeah, baby, on my hard luck
    Honey, on my bad luck soul
    I got a rainbow round my shoulders
    Shines like silver,
    Baby, look like Klondike gold
    Yeah, looks just like gold, baby

    I learned how to love you,
    Baby, 'fore I called ya,
    Honey, 'fore I called your name
    Oh, baby, 'fore I called ya
    Honey, 'fore I called your name
    Without Corinna,
    Sure don't mean, honey
    Sure don't mean a natural thing

    Corinna
    Oh my little Corinna
    Corinna
    Oh my little Corinna

    Is that the one?  Delbert McClinton lyrics and called Corinna.

    I could be barking up the wrong tree here.

    Bird bird bird..... bird is the word!

  • hahahah, All I had to do was read those lyrics, and the song started in my head. I think most everyone has heard that song at least once, and been stuck with it in their head. hahahaha

    Thanks Kitty, I really appreciate it. Had not heard or thought of that song in years, and WOW, here it is again. laugh_out_loud

                                                                          PMM

  • Hey!!! Everybody REALLY is talkin' about the bird. Bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word!!! HEHEHE


  • Hi Gang: Going wayyyyyy back here now.  This is Classic country, by two superstars of Country Music.....Dolly Parton...Porter Wagoner.... wink wink

    Are there any other Classic Country fans out there?


    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LertAlqDFGk&feature=PlayList&p=531DE948DEA2480D&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=5


    I know my friend Lips is a big time country fan, and will have fun with this song.

    Lets have a sing along....hehehehe





    An acre of diamonds I'd offer to you
    A solid gold mansion, an airplane or two
    This whole world would be yours to have and to hold
    If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold


    Chorus

    If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold
    I'd have all the riches my pockets would hold
    I'd be oh so wealthy with treasures untold
    If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold.

    The tears that have fallen won't buy you a thing
    The heartaches you caused me won't pay for a ring
    The love that I wanted would not have grown cold
    If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold.

    Repeat chorus

    But teardrops aren't pennies
    And heartaches aren't gold

    [Thanks to Endora Aphrattos for lyrics]
  • Oh Nice one Pam!!!

    Love those lyrics... "if teardrops were pennies and heartaches we're gold"

    Thank You!!

  • Hello - Luv Dolly and definately an Old School Country Music Fan!!  Waylon, Johnny, Merle....the older the better!!!  Thanks for sharing!!  =)

  • I am definitly a country fan,among with tons of other oldies I like.
    How about Conway Twitty?
    He is among my favorite top 10.
    My 2 favorite songs will always be Bette Midlers "THE ROSE"
    and "SMILE"(even so I only know this one by Harpo)

    THE ROSE
    Some say love, it is a river
    that drowns the tender reed.
    Some say love, it is a razor
    that leaves your soul to bleed.
    Some say love, it is a hunger,
    an endless aching need.
    I say love, it is a flower,
    and you it's only seed.

    It's the heart afraid of breaking
    that never learns to dance.
    It's the dream afraid of waking
    that never takes the chance.
    It's the one who won't be taken,
    who cannot seem to give,
    and the soul afraid of dyin'
    that never learns to live.

    When the night has been too lonely
    and the road has been to long,
    and you think that love is only
    for the lucky and the strong,
    just remember in the winter
    far beneath the winter snows
    lies the seed that with the sun's love
    in the spring becomes the rose.


    SMILE
    Smile though your heart is aching
    Smile even though it's breaking
    When there are clouds in the sky you'll get by,
    if you just smile, through your fear and sorrow
    smile and maybe tomorrow,
    you'll see the sun come shining through for you

    Light up your face with gladness
    Hide every trace of sadness
    Although a tear may be ever so near
    That's the time you must keep on trying
    Smile what's the use of crying
    You'll find that life is still worthwhile
    If you just smile

    When there are clouds in the sky you'll get by
    If you smile
    And maybe tomorrow
    You'll see the sun come shining through for you
  • Thats a beautiful song Hippo666

    Ciara - Keep Dancin' on Me

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8uI_viRg9f4

    Ohh yeah
    Waaaahhh
    Yeah
    Lead me out on the floor
    Bring ya body closer
    Take it all, give me more, do me like ya supposed to
    Move with me left and right slide your hands over mine
    Using all your imagination, leave everything behind

    Take my hand, lay on my face
    Feel my heart tumbling
    Dark corners, flashing lights, keep the music coming
    I'm off the earth, on the stars
    I ain't worried about tommorrow
    Keep going 'till the world disappears

    Keep dancing on me...
    Ohh...
    Uh ooh...
    On me...
    ('Till the world)...
    Keep dancing on me...
    Ohh...
    Uh ooh
    On me...

    Take the lead, raise the floor
    Take a turn, pass the shadow
    Taste the air, touch me there
    Lean to me, nothing matters
    Tell my ears truthful lies...
    Honest whispers make me sigh...
    Send me left... 
    Send me right
    I'm going outta my mind
    See me smile, make me want to go on and on
    I'm in peace serenity, I'm where I belong

    I'm off the earth, on the stars
    I ain't worried about tommorrow
    Keep going 'till the world disappears

    Keep dancing on me...
    Ohh...
    Uh ooh...
    On me...
    ('Till the world)...
    Keep dancing on me...
    Ohh...
    Uh ooh
    On me...

    Hold me bay, deep inside your mind
    Stay with me one more song
    Until my body is melting away, away, away

    Keep dancing on me...
    Ohh...
    Uh ooh...
    On me...
    ('Till my body's melting away)...

  • Love it Pam, I love country music....

    Lady Antebellum are hot right now too!


    :-*

  • I absolutely love Sugarland

    Here is one of my favorites

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8H5kGvKJZZk

                                    Keep you:


    We said goodbye. Tried her hand at magic.
    But we couldn't make us disappear.
    Not a day goes by I don't wish I had you.
    So run away, I'm glad you're still here.
    It's a bitter sweet victory.
    Lovin' the ghost in front of me.

    Now I can't laugh, can't cry.
    And I can't run, can't hide.
    What do I gotta do?
    What do I gotta do to keep you?
    What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?

    I wrote a couple of notes.
    One in love, one in anger.
    They're lying there dying in the dresser drawer.
    Lived louder than my voice. Struggled through a stranger.
    He loved me until I loved you even more.
    It's a bitter sweet victory.
    Lovin' someone else who wanted me.

    Now I can't laugh, can't cry.
    And I can't run, can't hide.
    You get used to the pain, and numb to the sting
    Till you can't feel anything.

    You tried to explain, but I couldn't hear it.
    As if your words were my tears.
    Flowing freely, warm and quiet.
    From the edges of my eyes and my ears.
    Then all that disappears.

    Now I can't laugh, can't cry.
    And I can't run, can't hide.
    Now I can't laugh, can't cry.
    And I can't run, can't hide.

    What do I gotta do?
    What do I gotta do to keep you?
    What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?

    :-*

  • Pam, that was wonderful, very fine choice in that song, shes very beautiful, i enjoyed that song, the lyrics and the video itself is fantastic.

    This one never made the charts that I'm aware of, like his other biggies, But a favorite of mine, non the less.

    Listen to those words............

    Giddy on up:

    Baby, where've you been?
    It's half past ten.
    Oh, look you're late again.
    Busy day, got a lot on your mind?
    You should hear about mine.
    A tall drink of water and a pretty little thing
    were kissing on corner in the pouring rain.
    Turned my head to get a better view
    How in lord, help me it was you.


    Didn't love me
    I ain't no fool
    Didn't love me
    No, no, no, no.
    Love, love you let me down
    Making this too easy
    Love, Love you let me down
    Think you should be leaving
    Love, love you let me down
    Let me down
    No you wont string me along
    You better be moving on
    Giddy on up
    Giddy on out



    Oh I ain't finished yet sit back down.


    Been acting pretty strange, didn't want to talk.
    Mmm, there's a pep in your walk
    Smiling a lot when you look at your phone
    Theres a change in your tone.
    Ive been through your pockets and smelled your shirts
    I don't wear bath and body works
    Should've seen the signs you were sneakin around
    She must be the number on the napkin i found


    Didn't love me
    I ain't no fool
    Didn't love me
    No, no, no, no.
    Love, love you let me down
    Making this too easy
    Love, Love you let me down
    Think you should be leaving
    Love, love you let me down
    Let me down
    Ooh you wont string me along
    You better be moving on
    Giddy on up
    Giddy on out


    Oh let me tell you
    I guess you could say that I was blind
    I was blinded by my love
    I did everything for you
    And now push has come to shove
    So lets call the spade to spade
    Was it worth the price you paid?
    Now I am done, I'm the lucky one
    And you can sleep in the bed you made.


    Didn't love me
    I ain't no fool
    Didn't love me
    No, no, no, no.
    Love, love you let me down
    Making this too easy
    Love, Love you let me down
    Think you should be leaving
    Love, love you let me down
    Let me down
    Ooh you wont string me along

    Love, love you let me down
    Making this too easy
    Love, Love you let me down
    Think you should be leaving
    Love, love you let me down
    Let me down
    Ooh you wont string me along
    You better be moving on
    Giddy on up
    Giddy on out

  •      I just love gambling tunes....
         Anybody got any others?                                  PMM2008


    Rambling, Gambling Willie
    -Bob Dylan

    Come around you rovin’ gamblers and a story I will tell
    About the greatest gambler, you all should know him well
    His name was Will O’Conley and he gambled all his life
    He had twenty-seven children, yet he never had a wife
    And it’s ride, Willie, ride
    Roll, Willie, roll
    Wherever you are a-gamblin’ now, nobody really knows

    He gambled in the White House and in the railroad yards
    Wherever there was people, there was Willie and his cards
    He had the reputation as the gamblin’est man around
    Wives would keep their husbands home when Willie came to town
    And it’s ride, Willie, ride
    Roll, Willie, roll
    Wherever you are a-gamblin’ now, nobody really knows

    Sailin’ down the Mississippi to a town called New Orleans
    They’re still talkin’ about their card game on that Jackson River Queen
    “I’ve come to win some money,” Gamblin’ Willie says
    When the game finally ended up, the whole damn boat was his
    And it’s ride, Willie, ride
    Roll, Willie, roll
    Wherever you are a-gamblin’ now, nobody really knows

    Up in the Rocky Mountains in a town called Cripple Creek
    There was an all-night poker game, lasted about a week
    Nine hundred miners had laid their money down
    When Willie finally left the room, he owned the whole damn town
    And it’s ride, Willie, ride
    Roll, Willie, roll
    Wherever you are a-gamblin’ now, nobody really knows

    But Willie had a heart of gold and this I know is true
    He supported all his children and all their mothers too
    He wore no rings or fancy things, like other gamblers wore
    He spread his money far and wide, to help the sick and the poor
    And it’s ride, Willie, ride
    Roll, Willie, roll
    Wherever you are a-gamblin’ now, nobody really knows

    When you played your cards with Willie, you never really knew
    Whether he was bluffin’ or whether he was true
    He won a fortune from a man who folded in his chair
    The man, he left a diamond flush, Willie didn’t even have a pair
    And it’s ride, Willie, ride
    Roll, Willie, roll
    Wherever you are a-gamblin’ now, nobody really knows

    It was late one evenin’ during a poker game
    A man lost all his money, he said Willie was to blame
    He shot poor Willie through the head, which was a tragic fate
    When Willie’s cards fell on the floor, they were aces backed with eights
    And it’s ride, Willie, ride
    Roll, Willie, roll
    Wherever you are a-gamblin’ now, nobody really knows

    So all you rovin’ gamblers, wherever you might be
    The moral of the story is very plain to see
    Make your money while you can, before you have to stop
    For when you pull that dead man’s hand, your gamblin’ days are up
    And it’s ride, Willie, ride
    Roll, Willie, roll
    Wherever you are a-gamblin’ now, nobody really knows
  • The Gambling Song Lyrics
    Cliff Richard


    The wheels forever spinning
    The dice are thrown and scatter
    The words are all of winning
    But only numbers matter

    We bet on our existence
    We'll last another round
    The lucky go the distance
    The losers go to ground

    From birth to death we gamble
    The lots are daily cast
    No warning or preamble
    Which one will be your last

    There is a great comfort in pure hatred
    For envy's not enough, not enough
    The soothing joy of malice
    Is made of sterner stuff, sterner stuff
    The failure of a father
    The torment of a son
    Is a recipe to justify
    The worst that could be done

    He'll destroy us unless we call a halt
    Should the bastard steal our birthright
    It will be our fault

    The race is won by cunning
    A terrifying dance
    Too complex in the running
    To leave it all to chance

    But chance is all we're given
    So chances we must take
    The gambler's stake is driven
    Through hearts that dare not break

    But all save one are broken
    As fatal points are scored
    And one surviving token
    Holds sway across the board

    There's a moment when the game's balance
    Tilts the other way, the other way
    When the odds begin to favour
    Outsiders in the play, in the play
    The failure of incumbents
    The sleazy tricks they use
    Mean that those who think they call
    The tune can only lose

    Deal the cards, it won't matter how they fall
    Because nothing is a gamble when you want it all

  • Here without you.........

  • My favorite song number one and will always be...

    Black


    Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
    Her legs spread out before me as her body once did
    All five horizons revolved around her soul
    As the earth to the sun
    Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
    Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
    Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
    And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
    Of what was everything?
    Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed Everything...

    I take a walk outside
    I'm surrounded by some kids at play
    I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear
    Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
    I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
    How quick the sun can, drop away
    And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
    Of what was everything
    All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

    All the love gone bad turned my world to black
    Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be...yeah...
    Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...

    I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star
    In somebody else's sky, but why, why, why
    Can't it be, can't it be mine

    How beautifully written...

  • Very nice nan...thanks for sharing tongue
