Alright, Lulu! Let's get to it, darling! Come on, 'cher! Just follow the bouncing butt!

We're gonna take you down, we're gonna take you down
We're gonna take you all the way down
We're gonna take you down, we're gonna take you down
We're gonna take you all the way

Goin' down the bayou, goin' down the bayou
Goin' down the bayou, takin' you all the way!

We got the whole family! There goes Mimi, Cousin Boudreau, oh Grandma Mama, your light on!

We all gon' pool together, down here that's how we do
Me for them, and them for me, we all be there for you
We're gonna take ya, we're gonna take ya
We're gonna take ya all the way down
We know where you're going and we're going witchoo
Takin' you all the way

Goin' down the bayou, goin' down the bayou
Goin' down the bayou, takin' you all...

Yeah, you know! Come on y'all!
Keep that life flowin', and them lights a'glowin!
Yeah, you're right!
Tout suite, come on! Ha ha!
Looks like we gettin' close
I hope somebody know where we at
Cause I'm lost man!

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Amazing

This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
