~Favorite City Songs~





Kings of Leon - Manhattan live

Well
I could dance all night
And some of the day
That's how I play
That's how I play

I say who are you
No matter who you are
So you dance all night
And you dance all day

I say
I say

Gonna build a fire
Gonna smoke it up
Gonna sip this wine
And pass the cup

These avenues and
these reseviors
We gonna show this town
How to kiss these stars

I say
I say

You've come to kill
Gonna spend it high
Your parents grieve
I know they are right

And then talking to you
Well they calm you down
So it's all for you
who let you down

I say
I say
I say
I say

Just wanna take you hand
I'm gonna drive you home
Just gonna keep on
Keep on, keep on
And you gonna have a rest

George Strait - Amarillo By Morning

"Amarillo By Morning"

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone. Everything that I've got is just what I've got on. When that sun is high in that Texas sky I'll be bucking it to county fair. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo I'll be there.

They took my saddle in Houston, broke my leg in Santa Fe. Lost my wife and a girlfriend somewhere along the way. Well I'll be looking for eight when they pull that gate, And I'm hoping that judge ain't blind. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's on my mind.

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone. Everything that I've got is just what I've got on. I ain't got a dime, but what I got is mine. I ain't rich, but Lord I'm free. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's where I'll be. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's where I'll be.

Tony Christie: "Is This the Way to Amarillo"

I'm gland someone else on this board knows that song. It hit big in Europe in the early months of 1972 but didn't even make the Billboard Hot 100 in this country.

[Publius]

Neil Diamond: "Brooklyn Roads"

[Publius]

It got airplay in Tacoma, which is how I heard of it.

Thank You so much for these fatima.

In City Dreams - Robin Trower
In city dreams
down in the dirt a candy wrapper.
The pretty ladies, on parade, with flashing eyes
they come on smiling.

In city dreams
when neon lights commence to shining.
The streetwise kids could steal your soul
and sell it to you on the corner.

In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams

The night's ablaze
the city burns from red to amber.
The sidewalk circus floating by
a crowd of bright eyed empty faces.
They're playing the game
this game of magical illusion.
That leaves you wondering
if you really have arrived
or are only dreaming.

In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams

In city dreams
down in the streets the dawn is breaking.
And you're still wondering
if you really have arrived
or are only dreaming

In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams
