Great job guys. Comf I'm very impressed. The version of Cow Cow Boogie I know is done by Ella Fitzgarald, I didn't know the Judds did it I though it would be a real stumper ahh well.
There are still two left:
You and I will settle down in a cottage built for twwoooooooo
sweet (song title) my (song title)
I love you!!!!!
Hint: from a very funny movie
Just turn me lose, let me stradle my own saddle underneath those weastern sky's, ohh ya
Hint:Theme Song
Ven
Comf,
I,ve got my own platter but a sound bite would be greatly appreciated!
(a) I have seen the morning burning golden on the mountain of the skies
Aching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle when she flies
Turning on the world the way she smiled upon my soul as I lay dying
Healing as the colors in the sunshine and the shadows of her eyes
Waking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skin
Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that I've been
(2) On a Sunday morning sidewalk
Wishing Lord that I was home
'Cause there's something 'bout a Sunday
Makes a body feel alone
And there's nothing short of dying
Half as lonesome as the sound
As a sleeping city sidewalk .....
(C) We were so close there was no room
We bled inside each others wounds
We all had caught the same disease
We all sang the songs of peace
Some came to sing, some came to pray
Some came to keep the dark away
Sorry, those are a little long to be called snippets but i was singing as i was typing.
Ven....Don't Fence Me In.....lotsa versions,I'm thinking maybe the Son's Of The Pioneers first...
Mac...#1-Loving Her Was Easier Than Anything I'll Ever Do Again...Kris Kristofferson was first,I think...I like Willie Nelsons version myself.
#2-Sunday Morning Coming Down-Johnny Cash (I love that song)
Cowboy
Mac:
a) Loving Her Was Easier (Than Anything I'll Ever Do Again) - Kris Kristofferson
b) Sunday Morning Coming Down - Kris K, and I beg to differ... the line is "Wishing, Lord, that I was stoned"
I suspect that third one is a Kris K song, too, but I don't recognize it.
Edited to add: I see that Cowboy beat me to it, so I want to note that Kristofferson was the songwriter for both those tunes. Kris had a voice like a billygoat with laryngitis, which is why you never hear him on the radio; but he was a hell of a songwriter and virtually everybody who was anybody in country music in the sixties/seventies did at least one of his songs.

Cowboy,
You Got it on (a) and (b). I'm partial to Kristoffersons version of "Loving Her..." He also wrote "Sunday Morning...) but when it comes to singing it, Johnny owns it! Question for you: Do you know if Ken Curtis (Festus on Gunsmoke) was once a member of the Sons of the Pioneers? I'm thinking yes, but am not certain.
What are the ODDS of that ever happening? I kidd you not I was posting this. then when I opend this page my jaw fell off. Posting the lyrics on the same thread is one thing but on the same page? Unbelievable!

7) And if you want you can ride my train
And soon forget the reason that you're leavin'
8) Just sit right in that chair right there COMF
And let me show you how it's done
9) But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me COMF
10) So here it is, another chance Wide awake, you face the day
Your dream is over...11) I wonder how they have the power to shine, shine, shine VENICE "with the help of some ...fire flies" I can see them under the pine
12) Used to be my life was just emotions passing by COMF Feeling all the while and never really knowing why...

5 out of 13 right off the bat. Dang! Sheesh...What the heck are you pluged into.
Aw, ain't this a shame? I mean, boy, this is a flop-down, kickin', squallin' SHAME that none of you guys can recognize "Dude Looks Like a Lady" by Aerosmith.
So never judge a book by it's cover
Or who you're going to love by your lover
Love put me wise to her love in disguise
She had the body of a venus
Lord imagine my surprise
I play in a band, Plum. Played country for years, while all those songs were popular. :)
