Aerosmith – Train Kept A-Rollin' Lyrics 18 years ago
"Train Kept A-Rollin" is a song written by Tiny Bradshaw, Howard Kay, and Lois Mann. Bradshaw first recorded the song in 1951, it was his best known recording. After a rock and roll version of the song was recorded and released by Johnny Burnette and the Rock and Roll Trio in 1956, numerous other such versions have been recorded since. [from wikipedia]

Yardbirds recorded this in '65, 9 years after Burnette, and 14 years after Bradshaw.

Original first verse is:

I caught a train, I met a dame
She was a hepster, and a real gone dame
She was pretty, from New York City
And we trucked on down that old fair lane
With a heave and a ho, well i just couldn't let her go

Destroyer – A Dangerous Woman Up to a Point Lyrics 19 years ago
This song reminds me of the end of my marriage (and relationship, period) with my ex-wife.

Have I told you lately that I love you?
Did I fail to mention there's a sword hanging above you?

I knew she'd cheated on me, but she didn't know I knew...

Baby, you should hear what you're saying
They said - "Don't look back!" but I looked back
It was a bore
It was a fucking horror
It was - well, honey, you know quite well what you are

My friends all encouraged me to move on without looking back at her, but I looked back at what we used to be and tried to make it work. Turns out they were right - it was a bore, it was a fucking whore, she was a - well, people, you know quite well what she was.
