ATF: Oh Mama

This series will include as many of my all-time favorite (ATF) 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 your musical tastes could be as exquisite as mine, I welcome any suggestions you might dare to make.  For I am, after all, quite magnanimous by nature.

Bohemian Rhapsody
Queen
Is this the real life
Is this just fantasy
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I’m just a poor boy
Poor boy
I need no sympathy
Because I’m
Easy come
Easy go
Little high
Little low
Anyway the wind blows
Doesn’t really matter to me
To me

Mama
Just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger
Now he’s dead
Mama
Life had just begun
But now I’ve gone
And thrown it all away
Mama
Oooooo
Didn’t mean to make you cry
If I’m not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on
Carry on
As if nothing really matters

It’s too late
My time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body’s aching all the time
Goodbye everybody
I’ve got to go
Gotta leave you all behind
And face the truth
Mama
Oooooo
Anyway the wind blows
I don’t want to die
I sometimes wish
I’d never been born at all

I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouche
Scaramouche
Will you do the fandango
Thunderbolts and lightning
Very very frightening me
Galileo
Galileo
Galileo
Galileo
Galileo Figaro
Mangifico-o-o-o
I’m just a poor boy
Nobody loves me
He’s just a poor boy
From a poor family
Spare him his life
From this monstrosity
Easy come
Easy go
Will you let me go
It’s the law
No
We will not let you go
Let him go
It’s the law
We will not let you go
Let him go
It’s the law
We will not let you go
Let me go
Will not let you
Let me go
Never
Never let you go
Let me go
Never let me go oh oh oh oh
No no no no no no no
Oh Mama Mia
Mama Mia
Mama Mia
Let me go
Beelzebub has a devil
Put aside for me
For me
For me

So you think you can stone me
And spit in my eye
So you think you can love me
And leave me to die
Oh baby
Can’t do this to me baby
Just gotta get out
Just gotta get right outta here

Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah

Nothing really matters
Anyone can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters
To me

Anyway the wind blows

Renegade
Styx
Oh mama
I'm in fear for my life
From the long arm of the law
Lawman has put an end to my runnin’
And I'm so far from my home
Oh mama
I can hear you a-cryin’
You're so scared
And all alone
Hangman is comin’ down from the gallows
And I don't have very long

No

The jig is up
The news is out
They've finally found me
The renegade
Who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This will be the end today
Of the wanted man

Oh mama
I've been years on the lamb
And had a high price on my head
Lawman said get him dead or alive
Now it's for sure he'll see me dead
Dear mama
I can hear you cryin’
You're so scared
And all alone
Hangman is comin’ down from the gallows
And I don't have very long

The jig is up
The news is out
They finally found me
The renegade
Who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
The judge'll have revenge today
On the wanted man

Oh mama
I'm in fear for my life
From the long arm of the law
Hangman is comin’ down from the gallows
And I don't have very long

The jig is up
The news is out
They finally found me
The renegade
Who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This'll be the end today
Of the wanted man
The wanted man

And I don’t want to go
No no

Oh mama
Don't let him take me

Oh no

Oh no

No no

No no

No

Fat-Bottomed Girls
Queen
Are
You gonna take me home tonight
Ah
Down beside that red firelight
Are
You gonna let it all hang out
Fat-bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go ‘round

Hey

I was just a skinny lad
Never knew no good from bad
But I knew life before I left my nursery
Left alone with big fat Fanny
She was such a naughty nanny
Heap big woman
You made a bad boy out of me

Hey hey

I've been singin’ with my band
Across the wire
Across the land
I’ve seen every blue-eyed floozy on the way
But their beauty
And their style
Went kind of smooth after a while
Take me to them dirty ladies every time

Oh
Won't you take me home tonight
Oh
Down beside your red firelight
Oh
And you give it all you got
Fat-bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go ‘round
Fat-bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go ‘round

Hey
Listen here

Now I got mortgages on homes
I got stiffness in the bones
Ain't no beauty queens in this locality
I tell you
Oh but I still get my pleasure
Still got my greatest treasure
Heap big woman
You gonna make a big man out of me

Now get this

Are
You gonna take me home tonight
Please
Oh
Down beside that red firelight
Are
You gonna let it all hang out
Fat-bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go ‘round
Fat-bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go ‘round

Get on your bikes and ride

Ooooh
Yeah
Oh yeah
Them fat-bottomed girls
Fat-bottomed girls
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Oh yeah
Ride
Fat-bottomed girls
Yes
Yes

The Weight
The Band
I pulled into Nazareth
Was feelin' about half past dead
I just need some place
Where I can lay my head
Hey mister
Can you tell me
Where a man might find a bed
He just grinned
And shook my hand
No
Was all he said

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And
And
And
You put the load right on me
You put the load right on me

I picked up my bag
I went lookin' for a place to hide
When I saw Carmen and the Devil
Walkin' side by side
I said
Hey Carmen
Come on let's go downtown
She said
I gotta go
But my friend can stick around

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And
And
And
You put the load right on me
You put the load right on me

Go down Miss Moses
There's nothin' you can say
It's just ol' Luke
And Luke's waitin' on the Judgment Day
Well Luke
My friend
What about young Anna Lee
He said
Do me a favor son
Won'tcha stay
And keep Anna Lee company

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And
And
And
You put the load right on me
You put the load right on me

Crazy Chester followed me
And he caught me in the fog
He said
I will fix your rack
If you'll take Jack
My dog
I said
Wait a minute Chester
You know I'm a peaceful man
He said
That's okay boy
Won't you feed him when you can

Yeah

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And
And
And
You put the load right on me
You put the load right on me

Catch a cannonball
Now to take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' low
And I do believe it's time
To get back to Miss Fanny
You know she's the only one
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And
And
And
You put the load right on me
You put the load right on me

Help Is On Its Way
The Little River Band
Why are you in so much hurry
Is it really worth the worry
Look around
Then slow down
What's it like inside the bubble
Does your head ever give you trouble
It's no sin
Trade it in

Hang on
Help is on its way
I'll be there as fast
As I can
Hang on
A tiny voice did say
From somewhere deep inside
The inner man

Are you always in confusion
Surrounded by illusion
Sort it out
You'll make out
Seem to make a good beginning
Someone else ends up winning
Don't seem fair
Don't you care

Hang on
Help is on its way
I'll be there as fast
As I can
Hang on
A tiny voice did say
From somewhere deep inside
The inner man

Don't you forget
Who'll take care of you
It don't matter
What you do
Form a duet
Let Him sing melody
You'll provide
The harmony

Why are you in so much hurry
Is it really worth the worry
Look around
Then slow down
What's it like inside the bubble
Does your head ever give you trouble
It's no sin
Trade it in

Hang on
Help is on its way
I'll be there as fast
As I can
Hang on
A tiny voice did say
From somewhere deep inside
The inner man
Hang on
Help is on its way
I'll be there as fast
As I can
Hang on
A tiny voice did say
From somewhere deep inside
The inner man

Help is on its way

Help is on its way
