| Neil Young – Old Man Lyrics | 8 years ago |
| Neil, thank you for this song. I returned from Nam in April 72 and side B caught my attention because of all those back there wasting-away on skag. I can feel Tim Drummond flowing through the bass. Rest in peace, brother. | |
| AC/DC – Moneytalks Lyrics | 10 years ago |
|
The "Little Girl" is Lady Liberty who is found on the US silver dollar. Through her the American Dream is sought, but along the way the US dollar has lost its value, so looks to the British pound to get there. Ms. Liberty is looking at the Euro, European sources of money-like rock bands, as a means of bailing-out her people, but she is no longer trusted because she has stolen everything she can from her people. A prostitute is perceived to do anything for money. |

| Tom Petty – No More Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
I was amazed to see there were no comments for this song! At 62, I've enjoyed Tom Petty and the Heart Breakers for many years, and I declare "No More" is the best written, sung, and played music ever. For me, this song is like an arrow shot straight in my heart. I'll leave the meaning of the song to Tom, but when the melody leaves my heart and goes into my brain, and then to my wife of 41 years, it reminds us not to gamble with love. Love is pure, not a lottery. |

| Simon and Garfunkel – Bookends Theme Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
Old friends Old friends Sat on their park bench like bookends Newspaper blowin' through the grass Falls on the round toes Of the high shoes Of the old friends Old friends Winter companions the old men Lost in their overcoats Waiting for the sunset The sounds of the city sifting through trees Settle like dust On the shoulders of the old friends Can you imagine us years from today Sharing a park bench quietly? How terribly strange to be seventy Old friends Memory brushes the same years Silently sharing the same fear A time it was It was a time A time of innocence A time of confidences Long ago it must be I have a photograph Preserve your memories They're all that's left you |

| Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band – Roll Me Away Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| When I was young, I did. Now that I'm older, I dream about what I did. This song is a 4:40 respite from what I do. I listen to a song, this song, to help me dream of what I did. If I knew then, what I know now, I'd do it again! | |
