Here you go, this shouldn't be too tough..



Oh my Mother was frightened by a shotgun, they say,
That's why I'm such a wonderful shot.
I'd be am out in the cactus and I practice all day,
And now tell me what have I got.
I'm quick on the trigger with targets not much bigger
Than a pen point, I'm number one.
But my score with a feller is lower than a cellar-

This is my quest, to follow that star ...
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far ...
To fight for the right, without question or pause ...
To be willing to march into Hell, for a Heavenly cause ...

And I know if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest,
That my heart will lie will lie peaceful and calm,
when I'm laid to my rest ...
And the world will be better for this:
That one man, scorned and covered with scars,
Still strove, with his last ounce of courage,
To reach ... the unreachable star ...

To Dream the Impossible Dream from "Man of La Mancha"


Turn back, O man
Forswear thy foolish ways
Old now is earth
And none may count her days
Yet thou, her child
Whose head is crowned with flames
Still will not hear
Thine inner God proclaim

Put that in yer pipe n' smoke it!!!

Now the many years sheâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s been to sea
Sheâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s seen the better times
She gives a groan of protest
As they cast away her lines

And the grumble of her engines
And the rust along her spine
Tells the castle sheâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s too old to be sailinâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]

But the sands run out within her heart
A tiny spark glows red
It smoulders through the evening
Thereâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s laughter overhead

Now the men are served, and the cards are dealt
And the drinks are passed around
Deep within the fire starts a-burninâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]

Ballad of Yarmouth Castle - a bit more obscure Gordon Lightfoot!!!!


So look down upon me, Jesus
You've got to help me make a stand
You've just got to see me through another day
My body's aching and my time is at hand
And I won't make it any other way

Fire & Rain, Sweet Baby James Taylor

You leave the Pennsylvania Station 'bout a quarter to four
Read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore
Dinner in the diner
Nothing could be finer
Than to have your ham an' eggs in Carolina

When you hear the whistle blowin' eight to the bar
Then you know that Tennessee is not very far
Shovel all the coal in
Gotta keep it rollin'

route 66

I'll be damned, here comes your ghost again
but that's not unusual
it's just that the moon is full
and you decided to come
And here I sit, hand on the telephone
hearing the voice I'd known
a couple of light years ago
headed straight for a fall
But we both know what memories can bring

HOWARD!!! I never knew you were a Judas Preist fan!!!! (
they remade Joanie's version)

Diamonds and Rust - Joan Baez


You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive
Well you said that we made such a pretty pair
And that you would never leave
But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me

(Bonus question: About whom was the song written????)

You're So Vain, Carly Simon I think James Taylor but I wouldn't bet any money on that.

You Need to Listen to this song sometime.
[size=-1]

Axes flash, broadsword swing, shining armour's piercing ring
Horses run with polished shield, fight those Bas***ds till they yield
Midnight mare and blood red roan, fight to keep this land your own
Sound the horn and call the cry, how many of them can we make die?

Follow orders as you're told, make their yellow blood run cold
Fight until you die or drop, a force like ours is hard to stop
Close your mind to stress and pain, fight till you're no longer sane
Let not one damn cur pass by, how many of them can we make die?

Guard your women and children well, send these *******s back to hell
We'll teach them the ways of war, they won't come here any more
Use your shield and use your head, fight till everyone is dead
Raise the flag up to the sky, how many of them can we make die?

Dawn has broke, the time has come, move your feet to a marching drum
We'll win the war and pay the toll, we'll fight as one in heart and soul
Midnight mare and blood red roan, fight to keep this land your own
Sound the horn and call the cry, how many of them can we make die?
How many of them can we make die?[/size]
