Sheena Easton....My baby takes the mornin' train
My brother would always change the lyrics of songs. It would always crack us all up. This song's lyrics were changed. I can't repeat them here because it's a family site but I think they made my dad blush. My mom would leave the room.
So I'll use another song he changed. Replace "Sad Eyes" with "Fat Thighs"
Bee Gees
Sad Eyes
Looks like it's over
You knew I couldn't stay
She's coming home today
We've had a good thing
I'll miss your sweet love
Why must you look at me that way
It's over.....
Ohhhh
Sad eyes
Turn the other way
I don't want to see you cry
Sad eyes
You knew there'd come a day
When we would have to say goodbye
Try to remember
The magic that we shared
In time your broken heart will mend
I never used you
You knew I really cared
I hate to say it at the end
But it's over.....
Ohhhh
Sad eyes
Turn the other way
I don't want to see you cry
Sad eyes
You knew there'd come a day
When we would have to say goodbye
Sad eyes
You knew there'd come a day
When we would have to say goodbye (Ahhhhhhhh)
Sad eyes (Sad eyes)
Turn the other way (Turn the other way)
I don't want to see you cry (Cry, cry, cry)
Sad eyes (Sad eyes)
You knew there'd come a day (Hey, hey)
When we would have to say goodbye (Ohhhhhh)
fade out
Sad eyes is actually Robert John.
RE: Making new lyrics, a few years ago, my wife, brother and I pulled an all nighter drive down south. About 2am, we turned on a country station. He knew Country music, but I wasn't a fan at the time. We spent about 6 hours driving and making up the words to new songs. It was amazing how close he and I were as we were improvising the words.
