Name That Tune



I've listed some lines from songs. Can you name the tune?

No googling!! If you don't know it from the top of your head..you don't know it.

Go ahead..give it a try:

1. Do my dreaming and my scheming lie awake and pray - Beach Boys - In My Room

2. Well, I ain't no saint and you sure as hell ain't no savior,
Every other christmas I would practice good behavior. - Allman Bros. Band - Wasted Words

3. So you stand on the corner in your new english clothes - Billy Joel - Captain Jack

4. Now you see this one eyed midget, Shoutin' the word "Now''
An' you say, "For what reason?''
An' he says, "How?'' - Bob Dylan - Ballad Of A Thin Man
5. Woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand - Peter Frampton - Do You Feel Like We do

6. He kissed her then and there
She took his ring, took his babies - David Bowie - Young Americans
 Thanks to everyone who played and contributed.  Check back..I just may do this again.
 
HUGS!!!!!!

Vinny "Bond" Marini said...

OK, it was eating me up and I had to google 1 & 6 and now I feel so small and silly...GAWD... How did those two not click...HOW??????

leelee said...

Okay, I'm going to be honest. Because - who knows? - you might be into that bullsh*t.

1) Not sure

2) Would not have guessed The Allmans

3) I don't think it's Piano Man, but the Billy Joel tip leads me to believe it's from "Big Shot"

4) No idea. But I do appreciate the "one eyed midget" phrase

5) DEFINITELY Peter Frampton's "Do You Feel Like We Do?"

6) David Bowie's "Young Americans"

I LOVE this game! Do this more often. What do I win? ;-)

leelee said...

I will post the answers tomorrow want my west coast readers to have a shot.

But Bond AND Pug you are wrong with the Billy Joel tune..yes Billy Joel, but not either of those songs.

1 and 3 are up for grabs.

Gee Pug, I haven't thought of a prize...how about a HUG!! I'll try to come up with more..for another post soon.

thanks for playing.
