Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl
It wasn't for bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all

Bad luck and trouble's my only friend
I've been down ever since I was ten

Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all

You know, wine and women is all I crave
Think that women gonna carry me to my grave

Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all

Bad luck and troubles, they're my only friend
I've been down ever since I was ten

Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck
If it wasn't for real bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all

Born under a bad sign
Born under a bad sign

I hadn't heard that one before. It doesn't like one of their more popular works. Still has that unmistakable sound though.

Actually their cover of then fairly recent Albert King tune. Jimi Hendrix would also tackle it in his live show occasionally.

For David. He chose it for us to listen to this morning at his funeral. Just 31. Cancer is a scourge.

When I'm Gone by Randy Newman

The time for us to say goodbye is near
The day I hoped would never come is here
Though many hearts are broken we must somehow carry on
Cause I think you're gonna miss me when I'm gone

I thought my life was over when we met
So little to remember, so much to forget
Though it was you who saw me through the darkness to the dawn
Still I think you're gonna miss me when I'm gone

I'm a modest man
And it hurts me to say these things to you
After all we've been through it's the least that I can do
So instead of just goodbye I'll say so long
And as for the light by which you see me leave it on
I'm a better man than I was before
Knowing you has made me strong
And I sure am going to miss you when I'm gone
Yes I sure am going to miss you when I'm gone

I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific. --Lily Tomlin

Lately I've been running on faith
What else can a poor boy do?
But my world will be right
When love comes over you

Lately I've been talking in my sleep
I can't imagine what I'd have to say
Except my world will be right
When love comes back your way

[Chorus:]
I've always been
One to take each and every day
Seems like by now
I'd find a love who cares just for me

Then we'd go running on faith
All of our dreams would come true
And our world will be right
When love comes over me and you

[Chorus]

Then we'd go running on faith
All of our dreams would come true
And our world will be right
When love comes over me and you
When love comes over you

Sorry about those things I said before
Sorry about those things I said before
People come and people go
People come by now you know

And I’m sorry about all those things
One day you will realize
How sad you are that I had to go

Take away the sun you can’t see the see moon
Take away the sun you can’t see the see moon
Need the one to see them both
Need the one by now you know
Take away the sun you can’t see the see moon
Knew that you had to leave me
But I’m sorry that you had to go so soon

I wish I could turn these days to weeks
I wish I could turn these days to weeks
But I can’t not stretch them so
But I can’t not by now you know
I wish I could turn these days to weeks
Be alright when your gone

But I am gonna miss your sunny cheeks

And people like to like the ones they love
And people like to like the ones they love
But you love me if you don’t
And I love you by now you know
People like to like the ones they love
Don’t like to think a lot

But you are the one that I’m always thinking
You are the one that I’m always thinking of

Don’t like to think a lot
But you are the one that I’m always thinking of

---Porch Song

Lay Me Down

Well this is how it starts Two lovers in the dark
On the run, from the one That they called Sheriff Spark
Six guns by their side and bullets around their waist
Two shots to the sky
Signal sound for the chase
The safe was nearly empty and They were nearly free
But were seen by the Good eye of the mean Billy Green
And he screamed at the top of his lungs They're on the run
It's the two outsiders Grab your horses and your guns

I said I wish that
We could stay here,
But I fear our time has come
We could ride out in the darkness
Chasing the rising sun
We gotta pack our bags this instant,
We're heading south-bound to the next town
And if we all arrive there so safely,
Baby you can

Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...

Well it's the story of the two
Always on the move.
They got nothing left to lose
'Cept their guns and their wounds
Now they're crossing borders
Sheriffs posse on their tail
They'd rather die together
Than be stuck up in a cell.
They drank up all the whiskey and They partied every night
Like it could be the last The bounty said shoot on sight.
So they chased the endless summer Though it came with the pride.
They wouldn't stop running till They found a paradise.
But the sheriff finally found them with his eyes seeing red.
So the lovers had to shoot him down and fill him full of lead
They were finally free To find a place to lay their head
And when they finally did he looked at her and then he said.

I said I think that we can stay here,
Cause I feel our time has come.
And we can walk down to the ocean,
And sit with the rising sun.
So unpack your bags this instant,
No more running from town to town
And now that we've arrived so safely,
Baby you can

Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...

Well you're my green-eyed girl And I've been running around with you.
It's the afternoon and we got nothing left to do.
So wipe the dirt off, or Take your shirt off,
And we should go hit the cantina, We got work off.
I said it's hot outside Let me go swimming in your eyes.
We've been running for a while
Why don't you lay down and make smile.
I could never ask for nothing better than this.
It's just tequila and the beach, that's why its salty when we kiss.

I said I think that we can stay here,
Cause I feel our time has come.
And we can walk down to the ocean,
And sit with the rising sun.
So unpack your bags this instant,
No more running from town to town
And now that we've arrived so safely,
Baby you can

Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down... Lay me down...

A Time For Everything? - Jethro Tull

Once it seemed there would always be
a time for everything.
Ages passed, I knew at last
my life had never been.
I'd been missing what time could bring.

Fifty years and I'm filled with tears
and joys I never cried.
Burn the wagon and chain the mule,
The past is all denied,
There's no time for everything.

Halfway Down The Stairs lyrics

Halfway down the stairs is a stair where I sit
There isn't any other stair quite like it
I'm not at the bottom, I'm not at the top
So this is the stair where I always stop

Halfway up the stairs isn't up and isn't down
It isn't in the nursery, it isn't in the town
And all sorts of funny thoughts run round my head
It isn't really anywhere, it's somewhere else instead

Halfway down the stairs is a stair where I sit
There isn't any other stair quite like it
I'm not at the bottom, I'm not at the top
So this is the stair where I always stop

Come A Little Closer lyrics

Come a little closer baby
I feel like layin' you down
On a bed of sweet surrender
Where we can work it all out

There ain't nothin' that love can't fix
Girl it's right here at our fingertips
So come a little closer baby
I feel like layin' you down

Come a little closer baby
I feel like lettin' go
Of everything that stands between us
And the love we used to know

I wanna touch you like a cleansin' rain
And let it wash all the hurt away
So come a little closer baby
I feel like lettin' go

If there's still a chance then take my hand
And we'll steal away
Off into the night, until we make things right
The sun's gonna rise, on a better day

Come a little closer baby
I feel like strippin' it down
Back to the basics of you and me
And what makes the world go ‘round

Every inch of you against my skin
I wanna be stronger than we've ever been
So come a little closer baby
I feel like strippin' it down

Come a little closer baby
Just a little bit closer baby
Come a little closer baby
I feel like layin' you down

I love the night
I love the element of danger and the ecstasy of flight,
I love the night
I love to dance with a stranger and to feel his delight,
And when the dancing is through, I kick off my shoes,
And I listen to the beating of his heart

In memory of the recently departed Bob Welch, formerly of Fleetwood Mac.

"Silver Heels"

She came in like a hurricane, wearing boots and diamond rings
With a fox fur on her shoulder, she set me wondering
And I could tell she was feeling abandoned, because she flashed a look across my way
She said, "Hi, Four-eyes, you'll never ask me but I'll tell you anyway!"

She took me out of the blackboard jungle, put me straight in a hurricane
She hypnotized my eyes with her silver heeled ways
If I could sing like Paul McCartney, or get funky like Etta James
I'd never change, I'd never change, I'd never change silver heeled ways...

She came in and her flags were flying, she was a sailboat of sweet perfume
And I could see that her eyes were smiling from across the room
Well I couldn't think of conversation, I was busy looking at her fur,
She said "Hey, you'll never ask me, so I guess I'll say the word"

She took me out of the blackboard jungle, put me straight in a hurricane
She hypnotized my eyes with her silver heeled ways
If I could sing like Paul McCartney, and get funky like Etta James
I'd never change, I'd never change, No I'd never change silver heeled ways

Feva for the Flava

Do you think that I can get some jiggy jiggy
Maybe gets a little finger sticky sticky
You my electrical lip balm flavor
I gotta do ya until the next song saves ya
And can I get a little zip zip lookie lookie
Maybe just a little uh uh nookie nookie
Hey what you say, it doesn’t matter anyway
You won’t do another ’cause you’re getting with me

She got the power of the hootchie
I got the fever for the flavor of the cootchie
And did I mention, hey pay attention
Gonna take that bootie to the nudie dimension
I got the green glow under my car
I got the boom boom system you can hear real far

[Chorus]
Oh hey hey hey hey hey hey oh pretty pretty shy whoap
Oh hey hey hey hey hey hey oh pretty pretty fly whoap
What do I have to say to get inside girl what do I have to say

Can I get a little yum, yum kitty kitty
Just a little sumthin sumthin itty bitty
Do you wanna get triple x groovie
Gimme gimme some of that kinda movie
And let me spin ya like a record wicky wicky
Let me get you butt naked licky licky
Here we go yo here’s the scenario
Gonna strip you down like a car in the barrio

Ya got the power of the hootchie
I got the fever for the flavor of the cootchie
I’m your lovey dovey bedtime player
Call me the super sexy boogie man slayer
I got the green glow under my car
I got the boom boom system you can hear real far

[Repeat Chorus]
I got the fever for the flavor of a cootchie
Yo hey ma yo hey ma yo hey mamama hootchie
I got the fever for the flavor of the cootchie
Yo hey ma yo hey ma yo hey mamama hootchie
Whoap Whoap Go!
Do you think that I can get some jiggy jiggy
Maybe gets a little finger sticky sticky
You wanna suck it like a bong hit whack it
You gotta be my First Lady Jack it

She got the power of the hootchie
I got the fever for the flavor of the cootchie
Let’s party hardy and rock n’ roll
We drink Bacardi and smoke a bowl
I got the green glow under my car
I got the boom boom system you can hear real far

[Repeat Chorus]
I got the fever for the flavor of the cootchie
Yo hey ma yo hey ma yo hey mamama hootchie
I got the fever for the flavor of the cootchie
Yo hey ma yo hey ma yo hey mamama hootchie
Whoap Whoap Go!
