Better People - Xavier Rudd

Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintore East to Yuendemu
The western esert lives and breathes in forty-five degrees.

Curiously, on karaoke lyrics the place is called Yondaboo

Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintore East to Yuendemu
The western desert lives and breathes in forty-five degrees.

Beds Are Burning  --  Midnight Oil


So give me all your money
Give me all your gold 
I'll buy you a house back in Zuma Beach
And give you half of what I own

Alabama Getaway  --  Grateful Dead


In Birmingham they love the governor
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth       
 

Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd. Nice double play


She came down from Cincinnati
It took her three days on the train  

She came down from Cincinnati
It took her three days on the train 

Fins  --  Jimmy Buffett


Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose, the lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares

Our glorious city
Was built by the divinities
By gods who saw fit to bestow
The gift of paradise
Peaceful and harmonious upon
Us mere mortals below

El Dorado  --  Elton John


Round wheels singin' on a long flat track
Boiler bustin' to blow its stack
Towns and villages flyin' by
Farewell Frauleins, don't you cry, you'll soon get another G.I.   

Round wheels singin' on a long flat track
Boiler bustin' to blow its stack

Farewell Frauleins, don't you cry, you'll soon get another G.I.

Open All Night  --  Counting Crows


Welcome back Rhino! - clean has been keeping all the music threads going in your absence - if you and clean ever leave for a while at the same time all the Music Games would shut down! 


Bobby's drivin' through the city tonight
Through the lights in a hot new rent-a-car
He joins the lovers in his heavy machine
It's a scene down on Sunset Boulevard

Thanks, cobra.
And thank you, clean for ALWAYS keeping these threads going!
The beginning of May is always a VERY busy time for me since I took over running the Postal Food Drive more than 10 years ago.
Lots of soliciting, organizing, advertising.....but it is all definitely worth it!
People are always SO generous and next saturday is our big day!

Indiana's early morning dew
High up in the hills of California

Hi Rhino I forgot about the food drive. I remember that last year. I've written some articles about the drive for the newspaper since its  nationwide program. Soon, it will get real busy here too as it is working in a seasonal community. But I'll find some time to tap into the lyrics, although more likely in library.

This is a city in Florida

Nobody ever knew where you came from
Orphan girl, you grew up wild
Your father left you on the way home
Yes. girl, you're a

I also forgot about your song

You're My home - Billy Joel

Nobody ever knew where you came from
Orphan girl, you grew up wild
Your father left you on the way home
Yes. girl, you're a

Jupiter's Child  --  Steppenwolf


Seven lonely days and a dozen towns ago
I reached out one night and you were gone
Don't know why you'd run, what you're running to or from
All I know is I want to bring you home 
      

Kentucky Rain - Elvis Presley, co-written by Eddie Rabbitt

Well I never have wandered down to New Orleans
Never have drifted down to a bayou stream
But I heard that music on the radiio
And I swore some day I was gonna go
To highway 10 past Lafayette to Baton Rouge

Well I never have wandered down to New Orleans
Never have drifted down to a bayou stream
But I heard that music on the radiio
And I swore some day I was gonna go
To highway 10 past Lafayette to Baton Rouge

Down At The Twist And Shout  --  Mary Chapin Carpenter


Next Lyrics: Lookin' for the duet version

We get together every time we can
The Mississippi River can't keep us apart
There's too much love in the Mississippi heart
Too much love in this Louisiana heart         

Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man - Loretta Lynn and Conway Twitty

New York, New York, is everything they say
And no place that I'd rather be
Where else can you do a half a million things
All at a quaretr to three

New York, New York, is everything they say
And no place that I'd rather be
Where else can you do a half a million things
All at a quarter to three

The Heart Of Rock And Roll  --  Huey Lewis and The News


Listen my love, get under the covers, yeah
Squeeze me real tight, all of your lovin'
Into the light, beneath and above ya
So out of sight, bein' in love      

Omaha - Moby Grape. Great find, I remember them well.

It was just after dark when the truck started down the hill
That leads into Scranton, Pennsylvania.
