Name That Tune

[OregonYeti]

I'm sure we have a diverse range of musical taste here. Might be fun to post some lyrics and see who can name the song

How about this:

I've been trying to make it home
Got to make it before too long
I can't take this very much longer

[Greg]

Journey - Wheel in the Sky

Here's one for the hippies:

The tiny purple fishes run laughing through your fingers,
And you want to take her with you to the hard land of the winter.

You got it, Greg.

The lyrics you posted, I know them but can't place 'em!! I'm getting CRS, I think.

AHA is it fair to use google? TALES OF BRAVE ULYSSES by Eric Clapton and Martin Sharp

"Salt for your meat, cinnamon sweet, and the rum is for all your good vices"

Jimmy Buffet. Son of a son of a sailor.
Too bad we can't post song clips instead. It would be tougher.

Here's an obscure one. Doo doo doo do do do do doo, doo doo doo do do do doo, doo doo do do do do do doo, doo doo doo do doo.......oh oh ohhhh.

Take that!

Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side"?

Here's one

"Redbird, don't say you told me so
Just give me one more song to go."

BLUE LETTER by Fleetwood Mac

[Salliem]

Try this..

"She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe
I thought you'd never say hello, she said, you look like the silent type."

[izbnso]

She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe
I thought you'd never say hello, she said, you look like the silent type

Tangled up in Blue!! Bob Dylan. Hey, my hair still is red.

Since we're going old hippie:

And the broad who served the whisky
She was a big old friendly girl.
Who tried to fight her empty nights
By smilin' at the world.

[OregonYeti]

I recognize that, but couldn't put a name on it until I googled it.

So I'm not saying

[OregonYeti]

From a girl band:

We're getting older the world's getting colder
For the life of me I don't know the reason why
Maybe it's livin' making us give in
Hearts rolling in taken back on the tide
We're balanced together ocean upon the sky

[izbnso]

We're getting older the world's getting colder
For the life of me I don't know the reason why
Maybe it's livin' making us give in
Hearts rolling in taken back on the tide
We're balanced together ocean upon the sky

A good guess, but incorrect I'm afraid. I almost forgot what it was myself. Try again, I'll give you a small hint. It was in the 70's and the band had a lot of hits!
