WordWolf knew the group and the song is more of a mystery because I don't think that it's very well known for it's name. I didn't know the name until last year even though I know the song very well.

So it's yours WordWolf.

When I was a growing boy

A-rocking on my daddy's knee

Daddy took an old guitar and sang

Bury me on the lone prairie

Uncle Bob sat at the piano

My girl cousins sang harmony

Those were the good old family times

That left a big mark on me

Uncle Bob sat at the piano

My girl cousins sang harmony

Those were the good old family times

That left a big mark on me

Walking down the trans-Canada highway

I was talking to a firefly

Trying to make my way to Nashville, Tennessee

When another car passed me by

Some day I'm gonna make big money

And buy myself a big old car

Make my way on down to that promised land

And then I'm gonna really go far

Far From Home ~Neil Young~ It probably didn't receive a lot of play time on the radio at least I don't ever recall hearing it.

I may have heard it, but Neil Young's voice sounds to me like fingernails on a chalkboard. :o

Something in your eyes was so inviting

Something in you smile was so exciting

Something in my heart told me I must have you

Up to the moment when we said our first hello little did we know

Love was just a glance away, a warm embracing dance away

and

Ever since that night we've been together

Lovers at first sight, in love forever

(There are gaps in the lyrics where the title appears.)

You don't need the artist for this one (it was essentially a one-hit wonder).

Last night I had a crazy dream

'Bout a chick in a black bikini

Ah, she looked so good, she couldn't be real

She must be a magic genie!

*blinks*

Was this Daddy Dewdrop's "Chick-A-Boom"?

And don't you just love it?

"Sitting with the thinker

Trying to work it out.

It's a traffic jam of the brain

Makes you want to scream and shout.

Presidential party.

No one wants to dance.

Looking for a new star

To put you in a trance."

"Workin' in a factory

Eight days a week.

Try to make dollar

D*, what a beat.

Cartoon capers

Happen in reality.

Rich man, poor man

Livin' in fantasy."

"Livin' in New York,

It looks like an apple core (apple core).

Asphalt jungle

Got to be a man of war (man of war).

California dreamers

Sinkin' in the sand (The sand, the sand)

The Hollywood Squares are

Living in Disney Land."

This was the one-hit wonder, Sly Fox, with "Let's Go All the Way."

FREE POST.

I remember the tune from its title. I just didn't remember any of the words. :)

In violent times

You shouldn't have to sell your soul

In black and white

They really, really ought to know

George
