That offends me! 😜
“We’re An American Band” - GFR
Talked about “Sweet Connie” who was one of the more infamous groupies.
The music of my childhood. Most of us didn’t understand the lyrics. The tunes were just catchy.
There is nothing wrong with it....that’s why they would hate it!!!
“Stay With Me”
In the morning
Don’t say you love me
Cause I’ll only kick you out of the door
I know your name is Rita
Cause your perfum smelling sweeter
Since when I saw you down on the floor
guitar
Won’t need to much pursuading
I don’t mean to sound degrading
But with a face like that
You got nothing to laugh about
Red lips hair and fingernails
I hear your a mean old jezabel
Lets go up stairs and read my tarot cards
Stay with me
Stay with me
For tonight you better stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
For tonight you better stay with me
So in the morning
Please don’t say you love me
Cause you know I’ll only kick you out the door
Yea I’ll pay your cab fare home
You can even use my best colonge
Just don’t be here in the morning when I wake up
And then there’s “Every Picture Tells A Story”....
I moved right out east, yeah
On the peking ferry I was feeling merry, sailing on my way back here
I fell in love with a slant-eyed lady by the light of an eastern moon
Haha - my Mom dropped the hammer on me for playing that one.
I was so young & “unaware” at the time that I didn’t even know what the lyrics really meant!
Mom considered it a considerable upgrade when I “graduated” to playing songs like “Salisbury”. Passionate(!), but not so raunchy.
My wife (a very devoted Catholic) still listens to quite a bit of stuff that I’ll say to her “don’t you know what he / she is saying??!!” Esp. when our daughter is around — and SHE catches most everything. My wife doesn’t listen to lyrics much...
How can the author leave out “Run, Joey, Run” by David Geddes?! The girl sounds like she’s 12. Geddes sounds at least 25, and gets her shot by her ol’ man.
Lot’s of stuff by the Doors.
Backdoor Man (The men don’t know but the little girls understand).

All live versions. Such great music.
Are you ready, are you ready for this
Do you like it, do you like it like this
Are you ready, are you ready for this
Do you like it, do you like it like this
Are you ready, are you ready for this
Do you like it, do you like it like this
Are you ready, are you ready for this
Do you like it, do you like it like this, oh
Push, push in the bush
Push, push in the bush
Push, push in the bush
You know I want to get down
Yeah, oh yeah
You know you like it, oh, I like it
You know you like it
I said we like it, oh, we like it
You know we like it, yeah we like it, like it, oh
In the bush, in the bush
In the bush, in the bush
I guess Maggie May set him on a bad track...
Well Cher (16) met Sonny (27)...
I guess she was singing from experience.
"I'm a man, I'm a man and so's Lola"
>Bob Seger had several pieces that seemed a little skeevy, especially the early stuff.
“Louise”
I concede she’s kinda naive
But after all
She’s only thirteen
Brown Sugar is the only one on the list that’s really bizarre. I could never make out much of the lyrics (more than once I tried to decode the song)but I assumed Jagger was noting the rythmic abilities often,ascribed to Blacks. Sound like “ how come you DANCE so good.
GI’ve a listen to The Coasters “Young Blood” some time!
Jagger and Tina Turner singing Brown Sugar was quite a sight!
I went out with a nice girl I had known from high school, one Saturday night, to the Ground Round. They served baskets of peanuts (and you dropped the shells on the floor), burgers, beer and wine, and featured a live band that consisted of a pianist, a drummer and a guy on banjo. They sung “nostalgic” songs ranging from the 1890’s to the 1970’s.
My father and I were singers and friends with the band. They would occasionally ask us up to sing a song. Being 18 years old at the time, I usually sang more recent songs. One of my best was “You’re Sixteen.”
My date just happened to be 16 at the time. She loved it.
She still does, after 32 years of marriage.
Not creepy at all, under the right circumstances.
