Name That Tune - Schoolie level - Striper Talk Striped Bass Fishing, Surfcasting, Boating

rexhamer · 04-01-2004, 07:05 PM

Slightly tougher than Fry level, but probabaly no problem for you music aficianados.

1. "Then you flew your lear jet to Nova Scotia
To see the total eclipse of the sun"

2. "Woke up this mornin' and I got myself a beer"

3. "Sun streaking cold, an old man wanderin' lonely
Taking time the only way he knows"

4. "Early morning, April 4th
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky"

5. "She has a lot of pretty, pretty boys
She calls friends"

6. "Too many mountains and not enough stairs to climb.
Too many churches and not enough truth"

Good luck. In the interest of disclosue I want to note that I saw this type of thread on another forum and thought it would be fun here. But these lyrics are my original choices.

No 1 Carley Simon- So Vain

rexhamer · 04-01-2004, 09:32 PM

Not bad. Here is a little more help for #6

6. "It's too late.
She's gone too far.
She's lost the sun."

And the next group:

7. "And the children that you spit on,
as they try to change their world"

8. "There's a killer on the raod.
His brain is squirmin' like a toad"

9. "The ocean is a desert with its life underground
And the perfect disguise above."
(Reminds me of every day that I got skunked)

10. "And though it's a part of the lone star state
People don't seem to care"

11. "Out on the road today I saw a deadhead sticker on a cadillac"

12. "And it's whispered that soon
If we all call the tune,
Then the piper will lead us to reason"

Bigcat · 04-01-2004, 09:56 PM

no 6 She Come Undone-Guess Who.
I new the song had to rack my brain for the artist:-)

RickBomba · 04-01-2004, 10:11 PM

Come on rex, give some of us youngin's a chance...Actrually, I'm not that young, but I tend to listen to the modern type rock.
Mikey's favorite old band is the guess who.
Bowie "changes"
Doors "Riders on the storm"
I'll have to go back for the others.
Later,
Rick

RickBomba · 04-01-2004, 10:12 PM

Doobies "China Grove"
Don Henley :Boys of Summer"
Led Zep "Stairway"
I'll try to get the other.
Later,
Rick

RickBomba · 04-01-2004, 10:13 PM

Can't get number nine...number nine.
Later,
Rick

America , Horse with no Name

rexhamer · 04-01-2004, 11:30 PM

Rick - I'll have to work a little more on the modern ones. For now here is one last batch of schoolies:

13. "You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money. You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right"

14. "The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive"

15. "If that chick don't wanna know, forget her"

16. " 'No' is the saddest experience you'll ever know.
Yes, it's the saddest experience you'll ever know"

17. "I was raised by a toothless bearded hag.
I was schooled with a strap right across my back"

18. "I was born in the backseat of a Greyhound bus
Rollin' down Highway 41"

Tomorrow I'll "release" some keepers.
Enjoy!

"think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before"

"I drive on her streets cause he's my companion, I walk through his fields cause he knows who I am "

"he monkey sat on a pile of stone and stared at the broken bone in his hand"

"I don't feel tardy"

"a glazed look, and I was on the road to ruin"

"she is always out making pictures, she always out making scenes"

04-02-2004, 03:10 AM

Okay mind if I take a shot at this?

"She had the side to side, tellin me no lie's, knocking me out with those american thighs."

"My father was a taylor and sewed my new blue jeans"
"
Don't go around tonight, I here its about to take your life"

"Rolled him up in a nice clean sheet and laid him out upon the bed a gallon of whiskey at his feet and a bottle or porter at his head."

"Tear roof off this mother, tear the roof off this mother sucker, tear the roof off this sucker"

"If I get home before for daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight."

"There must be some kinda way out of here, said the joker to the theif"

"That deaf dumb black kid sure plays a mean pinball"

Thats it for now. Sorry guys don't know any TESLA songs so can't put any on there for you. GOOD Luck I think they are all pretty simple

6 Grateful Dead: Friend of the devil is a friend of mine (not sure of the song title.
7 All Along the Watchtower - original artist is Dylan

Here are a couple more from before the disco/rap/boy-band era.

1. "Always in a hurry, I never stop to worry,
Don't you see the time flashin' by."

2. "I remembert finding out about you
Every day my mind is all around you"

3. "Factory air-conditioned, heat begins to rise
Guaranteed to run for hours, mama it's a perfect size"

4. "I told you not to wander 'round in the dark."

5. "You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me"

6. "Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues"

HighTide · 04-02-2004, 01:35 PM

4. Eric Clapton-Badge

5. Clash-Train in Vain (Stand by Me)

6. Ringo Starr- It don't Come Easy

I'm stuck on the other three, but I can hear #2 in my head, but I don't know the name.

Mike P · 04-02-2004, 01:47 PM

#2 is "Day After Day". Think the artist is Badfinger.

04-02-2004, 02:20 PM

Here you go, this music is more up to date.

"Yeah i got my nowinlater gators on, about to show you how my pimp hand is way strong"

"girl the way you cook my a steak reminds of the strips from rufcris you love my smile no matter how chipped my toof is"

"They call me Jeff Gordon, in the black SS with the navigation on"

HighTide · 04-02-2004, 02:29 PM
