Name the band/artist, song, or album for points. I'll start it off....and Greendawg will keep score even though he can't count!:stirpot:

This first lyric comes to mind....kinda describes me a bit...

Who wrote?:

"Now I'm not like this, I'm really kinda shy."
"But I get this feeling whenever you walk by."

Man, this one is easy for some of you...specially after seeing that favorite album thread....hint, hint....

True. Do you not know what song that comes from? I think it's probably the best song this group ever came out with, and they have a lot of good ones.

The song you put up? Yea I knew... Giving others a chance to play.. I did say I prefer the Shinedown version.

But won't you make yourself at home and stay with me?

Hey, I didn't bring it up. Over the years you hear and remember songs, but that doesn't mean you like them. If anybody else sings that song, I need to know. If anybody deserves to have their "man card" taken away it should be the one who brought up the song.......:crazy:

To the left and to the right
It's my belief that my big balls
Should be held every night"

"And they whirl and they twirl and they tango
Singin' and jinglin' a jangle
Float like the heavens above
Looks like Muskrat Love"

and better yet,

"Now I'm lost, lost in love, lost in love, lost in love
Now I'm lost, lost in love, lost in love, lost in love
Lost in love, lost in love, lost in love

I probably would've gotten it sooner, but I haven't been checking in on this thread.....

Here's and easy one:


I stole a ride on a passing star,
Not knowing where I was going,
How near or how far.
Through years of light, lands of future and past,
Until the heavenly gates,
Were sighted at last

Moved from side to side.

And who knows which is which and who is who.

On a long and lonesome highway

You can listen to the engine
Moanin' out his one note song
You can think about the woman
Or the girl you knew the night before

The way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours
And there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin',
You just wish the trip was through

Down on the old bayou
Raised on shrimp and catfish
and mammy's good gumbo

Got that rambling fever
Said goodbye to maw and paw
Crossed that old Red River
And this is what I saw

I saw (title)
All the stars up in the sky
I saw (title)
Gonna live there till I die
