~Favorite Day of The Week Song ~





Bangles - Manic Monday - 1986




Six o'clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream
I was kissin' Valentino
By a crystal blue Italian stream
But I can't be late
'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
These are the days
When you wish your bed was already made

It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
'Cause that's my funday
My I don't have to runday
It's just another manic Monday

Have to catch an early train


Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an air-o-plane
I still couldn't make it on time
'Cause it takes me so long
Just to figure out what I'm gonna wear
Blame it on the train
But the boss is already there

All of the nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down
Doesn't it matter
That I have to feed the both of us
Employment's down
He tells me in his bedroom voice
C'mon honey, let's go make some noise
Time it goes so fast


When you're having fun

Moody Blues - Tuesday Afternoon (1970)





Tuesday Afternoon
Moody Blues

Tuesday afternoon,
I'm just beginning to see, now I'm on my way
It doesn't matter to me, chasing the clouds away.

Something, calls to me,
The trees are drawing me near, I've got to find out why?
Those gentle voices I hear, explain it all with a sigh.

I'm looking at myself reflections of my mind,
It's just the kind of day to leave myself behind.
So gently swaying through the fairyland of love,
If you'll just come with me you'll see the beauty of

Tuesday afternoon, Tuesday afternoon.

Tuesday, afternoon,
I'm just beginning to see, now I'm on my way.
It doesn't matter to me, chasing the clouds away.
Something, calls to me,
The trees are drawing me near, I've got to find out why?
Those gentle voices I hear, explain it all with a sigh.

EasyBeats - Friday on my mind



Monday morning feels so bad
Everybody seems to nag me
Come on Tuesday I feel better
Even my old man looks good
Wednesday just won't go

Thursday goes too slow
I've got Friday on my mind

Gonna have fun in the city
Be with my girl, she's so pretty
She looks fine tonight
She is outa' sight to me

Tonight, I'll paint it red
Tonight, I'll lose my head

Tonight, I've got to get tonight
Monday I have Friday on my mind

Do the five day drag once more
No one, nothing else that bugs me
Now I'm working for the rich man
But I'll change his tune one day

Tonight I'll get mad
Tomorrow I'll be glad

'Cause I've got Friday on my mind

Gonna have fun in the city
Be with my girl she's so pretty
She looks fine tonight
She is outa' sight to me

Tonight, I'll paint it red
Tonight, I'll lose my head
Tonight, I've got to get tonight

Monday I have Friday on my mind

Yeah

Gonna have fun in the city
Be with my girl she's so pretty
Gonna have fun in the city
Gonna have some fun
Be with my girl she's so pretty
Gonna have some fun


Gonna have fun in the city
Gonna have some fun
Be with my girl she's so pretty
In the city tonight
Gonna have fun in the city

Rolling Stones - Ruby Tuesday



She would never say where she came from
Yesterday dont matter if its gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goes

Goodbye, ruby tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still Im gonna miss you...

Dont question why she needs to be so free
Shell tell you its the only way to be
She just cant be chained
To a life where nothings gained
And nothings lost
At such a cost

Theres no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind.
Aint life unkind?

Goodbye, ruby tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still Im gonna miss you.

Come Monday ~ Jimmy Buffett


Headin' up to San Francisco
For the Labor Day week-end show
I've got my hush-puppies on
I guess I never was meant for glitter rock and
roll
And Honey I didn't know
That I'd be missin' you so

Chorus:
Come Monday, it'll be all right
Come Monday, I'll be holdin' you tight
I spent four lonely days in a brown L. A. haze
And I just want you back by my side

Yes, it's been quite a summer
Rent-a-cars and west-bound trains
And now you're off on vacation

Something you tried to explain
And Darlin' it's I love you so
That's the reason I just let you go

Come Monday, it'll be all right
Come Monday, I'll be holdin' you tight
I spent four lonely days in a brown L. A. haze
And I just want you back by my side

I can't help it honey

You're that much a part of me now
Remember that night in Montana
When we said there'd be no room for doubt

I hope you're enjoyin' the scen'ry
I know that it's pretty up there
We can go hikin' on Tuesday
With you I'd walk anywhere
California has worn me quite thin

I just can't wait to see you again

Come Monday, it'll be all right
Come Monday, I'll be holdin' you tight
I spent four lonely days in a brown L. A. haze
And I just want you back by my side

I spent four lonely days in a brown L. A. haze
And I just want you back by my side

Just name the day...
that you like the best;
any day you say!
but my day of rest.

Oh you can kiss me on a Monday
a Monday a Monday is very very good
Or you can kiss me on a Tuesday
a Tuesday a Tuesday in fact I wish you would!

Thanks to you as well ... I love that song. I cry whenever I hear it ... the other one by Denver I like is:

"Almost heaven, west Virginia Blue ridge mountains Shenandoah river - Life is old there Older than the trees Younger than the mountains Growin like a breeze Country roads, take me home To the place I belong West Virginia, mountain momma Take me home, country roads All my memories gathered round her Miners lady, stranger to blue water Dark and dusty, painted on the sky Misty taste of moonshine Teardrops in my eye ... (and so on)

You’re Gonna Miss This
Trace Adkins

She was staring out that window, of that SUV

Complaining, saying I can’t wait to turn 18

She said I’ll make my own money, and I’ll make my own rules

Mamma put the car in park out there in front of the school

Then she kissed her head and said I was just like you

-Chorus-
You’re gonna miss this

You’re gonna want this back

You’re gonna wish these days hadn’t gone by so fast

These Are Some Good Times

So take a good look around

You may not know it now

But you’re gonna miss this

Before she knows it she’s a brand new bride

In a one-bedroom apartment, and her daddy stops by

He tells her It’s a nice place

She says It’ll do for now

Starts talking about babies and buying a house

Daddy shakes his head and says Baby, just slow down

-Chorus-
You’re gonna miss this

You’re gonna want this back

You’re gonna wish these days hadn’t gone by so fast

These Are Some Good Times

So take a good look around

You may not know it now

But you’re gonna miss this

Five years later there’s a plumber workin’ on the water heater

Dog’s barkin’, phone’s ringin’

One kid’s cryin’, one kid’s screamin’

She keeps apologizin’

He says They don’t bother me.

I’ve got 2 babies of my own.

One’s 36, one’s 23.
Huh, it’s hard to believe, but ...

-Chorus-
You’re gonna miss this

You’re gonna want this back

You’re gonna wish these days hadn’t gone by so fast

These Are Some Good Times

So take a good look around

You may not know it now

But you’re gonna miss this

You’re gonna miss this

Yeah, you’re gonna miss this

The cd of the day in the car was Levon Helm’s Dirt Farmer.
Favorite song from the CD is False Hearted Lover Blues.

I Dreamed About Mama Last Night
Hank Williams

I’ve just been to heaven with someone so true
I dreamed about mama last night

She read me the Bible like she used to do
I dreamed about mama last night

She never close her eyes to sleep till we were all in bed

And on party nights when we come home she often sat and read

We little thought about it then for we were young and gay

Just how much mama worried when we children were away

We only knew she never slept when we were out at night

That she waited just to know that we’d all come home alright

Why sometimes when we’d stay away till one or two or three

It seemed to us that mama heard the turnin’ of the key

For always when we’d step aside she’d call and we’d reply

But we were all too young back then to understand the reason why

Until the last one had returned she’d always keep a light

For mama couldn’t sleep until she kissed us all goodnight

She had to know that we were safe before she went to rest

She seemed to fear that the world might harm the ones that she loved the best

And once she told me when you’re grown to women and to men

Perhaps I’ll sleep the whole night through I may be different then

And so it seemed that night and day we knew a mother’s care

That always when we got back home we’d find her waitin’ there

Then came the night that we were called together round her bed

The children’re all with you now the kindly doctor said

And in her eyes the gleam again that old time tender light

That told that she’s just been waitin’ to know that we were alright

She smiled that old familiar smile and prayed to God to keep

Her children safe from harm throughout the years tand then she went to sleep

My dream is a treasure that I’ll always keep I dreamed about mama last night

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning

In fact it was a little bit fright'ning, but they fought with expert timing

There was funky China men from funky Chinatown

They were trapping when up, they were trapping when down

It's an ancient Chinese art, and everybody knew their part

For my friend, ain't you a stiff, then I'm kickin' from the hip

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning

In fact it was a little bit fright'ning, but they fought with expert timing

There was funky Billy Chin and little Sammy Chong

He said, here comes the big boss, let's get it on

We took the bow and made a stand, started swaying with the hand

A sudden motion made me stiff, now we're into a brandnew trip

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning

In fact it was a little bit fright'ning, but they did it with expert timing

Oh-oh-oh-oh...

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning

In fact it was a little bit fright'ning, but they did it with expert timing

Kung Fu fighting, had to be fast as lightning...

Where do you go? I live in Washington, near Seattle. I go to The Ram, a sports bar in what's called The "U" dist. university crowd, nice place. I was on a trip a few summers ago and stopped at North Platte Nebraska. There was a bar called "The Country Rose" ... never had a greater time in my life ... who'da thought that I'd be at a C&W bar in the middle of Nebraska on a Saturday night ... people there were great!!!!
