"I'm in the hi-fidelity first class traveling set

And I think I need a Lear jet."

"Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash.

New car, caviar, four star daydream,

Think I'll buy me a football team."

"I'm all right Jack keep your hands off my stack."

"so they say

Is the root of all evil today.

But if you ask for a rise

it's no surprise

that they're giving none away."

"Money (That's What I Want)" by the Beatles?

George

I've never confused that band with ~Pink Floyd~. Badfinger, maybe but not them. rolleyes.gif

No, wrong band (this song is not done by the Beatles.)

I heard ~Pink Floyd~'s Money this morning on the radio of all places. I was going to chime in then but the computer I was on wouldn't let me.

50% / 50% I suppose. But let Georgio have it WW.

"Money" by the Beatles is a completely different song.

Human is up.

So you weren't confused after all George. My bad.

Well, I'm standing on a corner

In Winslow, Arizona

and such a fine sight to see

It's a girl my Lord, in a flatbed Ford

Slowing down to take a look at me

Come on Baby, don't say maybe

I gotta know if your sweet love

is gonna save me

"Take it Easy" by the Eagles?

George

Yeah, Jackson Brown wrote it with a little help from Glen Frye who made it a hit. So after the success The Eagles had with it Brown sued and received a multi-million dollar settlement out of court.

She's just got to have

About half a million

Famed autographs

Her wallet filled with pictures

She gets them one by one

Becomes so excited

Watch her, look at her run.

"Oh Mommy, Mommy

Please may I go

It's such a sight to see

Somebody steal the show"

"Oh Daddy, Daddy

I beg of you

Whisper to Mommy

It's alright with you"

Wow. I almost thought this was the name that flick thread. "Mommy Dearest"? Then I realized that it was the name that tune thread.

Still, not idea.

New song:

And they got a good thing goin'

When the words don't get in the way.

And when they're really wailing,

Michelle and Cass are sailin'.

Hey! they really nail me to the wall.

George

We might have similar taste in music George. You often post songs that I would consider some of my favorites. Along those lines I was waiting to see if anyone else would guess this.

I Dig Rock n' Roll music by Peter, Paul & Mary (Mary was Hot)

Correct.

I remember a DJ saying that when they sang about the Mamas and the Papas, they sounded like the Mamas and the Papas; when they sang about the Beatles, they sounded like the Beatles; when they sang about Donovan, they sounded like Floyd the Barber. :lol:
