Great Minds think alike!
I was going to go find "Edmund Fitzgerald" but saw you already had it.
Try this instead:
HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN
(Price)
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans
Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk
------ organ solo ------
Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one
That ~IS~ a good one!
I've actually sung that one in Karaoke, for good or ill ;~D
What about American Pie by Don McClean?
Thanks for the ping - I'm gonna keep reading........I can think of a few, but the post that started this nailed 3 of mine!!!!
