Try this one

Now no-one saw what you looked like, what you looked like
Like a stranger you came out of the night, out of the night
Cos someone put the word on you, and I hope my aim is true.
Strap them kids n give em a little bit of vodka
n cherry coke we're goin' to Oklahoma
to the family reunion for the first time in years
cept that Uncle Slaton cause he's gettin on in years
You know he no longer travels but he's still pretty spry
not much on talkin he's just too mean to die

Some of the lyrics fit thos board...

People with angles
Never should tangle
With the boys who kill with words
You don`t stand a chance,
You`ll lose your pants,
This act is for the birds.

[chorus]

Don`t try to please `em
Don`t try to please `em,
They know the game-- the men without shame;
Don`t try to tease `em
Don`t try to tease `em
Men without shame, men without shame.

Flowers just won`t work,
We`re all going berserk,
Rip `em up like weeds,
All over town
Running `em down,
Fulfilling their nasty deeds.

There`s a certain breed
Who feel the need
To put people in their place,
Not a bad bunch of guys,
Don`t hand `em no lies,
So stay off their case.

Don`t try to please `em,
Don`t try to please `em,
They know the game-- the men without shame,
Don`t try to tease `em,
Don`t try to tease `em,
Men without shame, men without shame...


Good choice by EastBayRay. I know the song, but I had to search for it.


This is one of my favorites:

"This time you've got nothing to lose
You can take it, you can leave it, whatever you choose
I won't hold back anything
And I'll walk away a fool or a king

Some love is just a lie of the mind
It's make believe until its only a matter of time
And some might have learned to adjust"

I don't even know why

From the same era:

I can't stop
The way I feel
Things you do
Don't seem real
Tell you what
I got in mind
'Cause we're runnin' out of time
Won't you ever
set me free
This waitin' round's
Killin' me

Up, down, turn around
Please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone
I'll find my soul as I go home
