the_rckBefore I head out to volunteer at the school library, here's the list of song lyrics again. I've included a second line on the fourteen songs that nobody guessed.
The original post is here.
These are relatively obscure for those who don't share my taste in music, so I'm also going to list the artists performing the versions I've got. The list is alphabetical and doesn't relate to the order of the lyrics. Clancy Brothers (1); Judy Collins (3); Billy Joel (1); Maria Muldaur (1); Mustard's Retreat (1); Peter, Paul and Mary (1); John Prine (4, 3 of which are duets); Sally Rogers (1); Sweet Honey in the Rock (1).
1) I know where I'm going. I know who's going with me.
2)He's a real nowhere man --- "Nowhere Man"
3) It's so easy to dream of the days gone by. It's so hard to think of the times to come
4)A young and headstrong lady was Madam Marie Curie --- Madam Curie's Hands
5)Cold wind on the harbor --- Giant
6) Sitting on the front porch on a summer afternoon in straight backed chair on two legs leaned against the wall
7) All the snow has turned to water. Christmas days have come and gone
8)What a dream I had, pressed in organdy --- For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her
9)Steve walks warily down the street --- Another One Bites the Dust
10) Once I had a little dog. His color it was brown.
11) They unfolded your lives one by one. They laid out your patchwork under the sun
12) Even though I wasn't free when you fell in love with me and with all your young heart you learned to care
13) There's a young man that I know. His age is twenty-one, comes from down in southern Colorado
14)Oh, the year was 1778 --- Barrett's Privateers
15) I've got beggars on my trail a lean and ragged rail
16) You may talk about your lancers or the Irish fusiliers the Aberdeen militia or the Dublin volunteers or any other regiment
17) Sons of the thief, sons of the saint, who is the child with no complaint?
18) By a fountain back in Rome I fell in love with you. In a small café in Athens you said you loved me too.
19)Don't get excited. Don't say a word. Nobody noticed. Nothing was heard. --- Surprises
20) Darling I can see the clouds around you and in your heart I know a sorrow grows
Should I expand the lyric snippets tomorrow or just reveal what the songs are? Does anybody care either way?
