Don't forget this favorite of Dr. Demento:

Artist: NAPOLEON XIV
Title: THEY ARE COMING TO TAKE ME AWAY

Remember when you ran away
And I got on my knees
And begged you not to leave
Because I'd go beserk

Well you left me anyhow
And then the days got worse and worse
And now you see I've gone
Completely out of my mind

And they're coming to take me away ha-haaa
They're coming to take me away ho ho hee hee ha haaa
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see those nice young men
In their clean white coats
And they're coming to take me away ha haaa

I actually love the song. It's just cheesy.

You Don't Even Call Me By My Name

You Don't Even Call Me By My Name
by: DAVID ALLAN COE

It was all that I could do to keep from cryin'
Sometimes it seems so useless to remain
You don't have to call me darlin', darlin'
You never even call me by my name.
You don't have to call me Waylon Jennings
And you don't have to call me Charlie Pride.
You don't have to call me Merle Haggard, anymore.
Even though your on my fightin' side.

CHORUS

And I'll hang around as long as you will let me
And I never minded standin' in the rain.
You don't have to call me darlin', darlin'
You never even call me by my name.

I've heard my name a few times in your phone book
I've seen it on signs where I've laid
But the only time I know, I'll hear David Allan Coe
Is when Jesus has his final judgement day.

CHORUS...

(then: the spoken part below has this played in the background):

Well, a friend of mine named Steve Goodman wrote that song and he told me it was the perfect country and western song I wrote him back a letter and told him it was NOT the perfect country and western song because he hadn't said anything about Momma, or trains, or trucks, or prison, or gettin' drunk. Well, he sat down and wrote another verse to the song and he sent it to me and after reading it, I realized that my friend had written the perfect country and western song. And I felt obliged to include it on this album. The last verse goes like this here:

Well, I was drunk the day my Mom got outta prison.
And I went to pick her up in the rain.
But, before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got runned over by a damned old train.

CHORUS:

So I'll hang around as long as you will let me
And I never minded standin' in the rain. No,
You don't have to call me darlin', darlin'

You never even call me, I wonder why you don't call me

Why don't you ever call me by my name.

A horse getting lost? Nope...doesn't ring a bell, which is probably just as well.


I'm Gonna Catch That Horse If I Can

And that's just the Title!~}

I feel protective of Brown Eyed Girl...a favorite since 1967 or so, but I agree with just about all of the other postings:
Cherish, Honey, I honestly love you, have you never been mellow?, one egg left to fry, are all tunes to accompany roasting in Hell.

No doubt in my mind. It has to be "Muskrat Love" by Captain and Tenille.

What about that old favorite, "How can I kiss the lips at night that have chewed my a$$ off all day?".

LOL!! Do you remember: Nashville Cats by the Lovin' Spoonful? Here, maybe a bit of the lyrics will help... (hehe)

Nashville Cats, play clean as country water

Nashville Cats, play wild as mountain dew

Nashville Cats, been playin' since they's babies

Nashville Cats, get work before they're two

Well, there's thirteen hundred and fifty two

Guitar pickers in Nashville

And they can pick more notes than the number of ants

On a Tennessee anthill

Yeah, there's thirteen hundred and fifty two

Guitar cases in Nashville

And any one that unpacks his guitar could play

Twice as better than I will

'I saw several someones get gonged for singing "Feelings". It became an automatic gong. They even had one show where every act sang some version of it, and got gonged.'

Even back in the 70's they realized that song sucked.

Who do we petition to ask if we can have another whack at the seventies, and this time, lets try to get it right.

Relive the 70s? Oh no...not that! Anything but that! The only thing worse would be...reliving the 60s! Aieeeee!

LOL! That is my all-time most-hated song. It used to be played every morning when I was getting ready for work back in the 70's. It made me want to crawl back into bed and pull the covers up over my head.

You all need to read Dave Barry's Book of Bad Songs.

It's amazing how these types of threads just take off and go crazy.

BTW I nominate Wildfire as a dumbass love song about a pony.
