This weekly series
will include as many of my all-time favorite tunes as I can get my grubby
little hands on (so to speak). Now, each
one included in each edition will have some connection with the other—albeit
only as a figment of my imagination, but they will not be numbered. For I just cannot bring myself to rate some higher
than others. So, this will not be a
countdown, but if you are enjoying them as much as I do, it won’t matter. Besides, with no countdown, this could go on
forever and ever! Oh, and despite the
fact that there is absolutely no way that your musical tastes can be as
exquisite as mine, I welcome any suggestions that you might dare to make. I am, after all, quite magnanimous by nature.
Who Do You Love
George Thorogood
and The Destroyers
I walked
forty-seven miles of barbed wire
I got a cobra snake
for a necktie
A brand new house
on the road side
And it's a-made out
of rattlesnake hide
Got a band new
chimney put on top
And it's a-made out
of human skull
Come on take a
little walk with me baby
And tell me who do
you love
Who do you love
Around the town I
use a rattlesnake whip
Take it easy baby
don't you give me no lip
Who do you love
Who do you love
I've got a
tombstone hand and a graveyard mind
I'm just twenty-two
and I don't mind dyin’
Who do you love
Yeah who do you
love
Ah who do you love
Now Arlene took
a-me by my hand
She said Lonesome
George you don't understand
Who do you love
The nights were
dark and the skies were blue
Down the alleyway a
house wagon flew
Hit a bump and
somebody screamed
You should've heard
just what I'd seen
Who do you love
Who do you love
Yeah who do you
love
Ah who do you love
Yeah I've got a
tombstone hand and a graveyard mine
Just twenty-two
baby I don't mind dyin’
Snakeskin shoes
baby put them on your feet
Got the goodtime
music and the Bo Diddley beat
Who do you love
Who do you love
I walked
forty-seven miles of barbed wire
I got a cobra snake
for a necktie
A brand new house
on the road side
And it's made out
of rattlesnake hide
Got a band new
chimney put on top
And it's made out
of human skull
Come on take a
little walk with me child
Tell me who do you
love
Yeah who do you
love
Who do you love

Straight On
Heart
Quite some time
I’ve been sittin'
it out
Didn't take no
chances
I was a prisoner of
doubt
I knocked down the
wailin' wall
Ain't no sin
Got the feel of
fortune
Deal me in
Comin' straight on
for you
You made my mind
Now I'm stronger
Now I'm comin'
through
Straight on
Straight on for you
Straight on for you
Now I know
I got to play my
hand
What the winner
don't know
A gambler
understands
My heart keeps
playin' it through
With you my friend
I'll take my
chances on you
Again and again
Again
Comin' straight on
for you
You made my mind
Now I'm stronger
Now I'm comin'
through
Straight on
Straight on for you
Straight on for you
Yeah
For you
Comin' straight on
for you
You made my mind
And now I'm
stronger
Now I'm comin'
through
Straight on
Straight on for you
Straight on
Straight on
Straight on for you
Straight on for you
You made my mind
Now I'm stronger
Now I'm comin' through
Straight on
Straight on for you
Straight on
Straight on
I'm straight on for
you
Straight on for you

ReplyDeleteI always liked Heart
ReplyDeleteNeat post! Heart is one of my favorite groups! Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteStraight from my heart....great stuff! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI hope all is going well for you and Arlynda, Jerry. Take good care. :)
Thanks for stopping by, my dear Karen!!! So, who do you love?
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Jenny!!! Yes, I am quite sure that the Stones spend a lot of time listening to Mississippi delta blues.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Ann!!! If I remember right, I wore out at least two 8-tracks of Dreamboat Annie before I made the switch to cassettes.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Eileen!!! I am really glad you enjoyed this.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Lee!!! Well, the blues seem appropriate with what we used to believe was our good hospital monstrosity wanting us to pay an extra $2,000 on a bill from 10 months ago. They claim that we did not give them any insurance information at the time, and this is the first we are hearing about it. Now, does that make sense to you?
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Adullamite!!! Well, if they could cook like Lee...
