How well do you know your music?

Lets see how well you know your music....name the artists and titles of the songs :)



1st song:

I was staying at the Marriott

With Jesus and John Wayne

I was waiting for a chariot

They were waiting for a train

The sky was full of carrion

%26quot;I'll take the mazuma%26quot;

Said Jesus to Marion

%26quot;That's the 3:10 to Yuma

My ride's here...%26quot;



The Houston sky was changeless

We galloped through bluebonnets

I was wrestling with an angel

You were working on a sonnet

You said, %26quot;I believe the seraphim

Will gather up my pinto

And carry us away, Jim

Across the San Jacinto

My ride's here...%26quot;



Shelley and Keats were out in the street

And even Lord Byron was leaving for Greece

While back at the Hilton, last but not least

Milton was holding his sides

Saying, %26quot;You bravos had better be

ready to fight

Or we'll never get out of East Texas tonight

The trail is long and the river is wide

And my ride's here%26quot;



I was staying at the Westin

I was playing to a draw

When in walked Charlton Heston

With the Tablets of the Law

He said, %26quot;It's still the Greatest Story%26quot;

I said, %26quot;Man, I'd like to stay

But I'm bound for glory

I'm on my way

My ride's here...%26quot;





2nd Song:



Let me run with you tonight

Ill take you on a moonlight ride

Theres someone I used to see

But she dont give a damn for me



But let me get to the point, lets roll another joint

And tu rn the radio loud, Im too alone to be proud

You dont know how it feels

You dont know how it feels to be me



People come, people go

Some grow young, some grow cold

I woke up in between

A memory and a dream



So lets get to the point, lets roll another joint

Lets head on down the road

Theres somewhere I gotta go

And you dont know how it feels

You dont know how it feels to be me



My old man was born to rock

Hes still tryin to beat the clock

Think of me what you will

I got a little space to fill



So lets get to the point, lets roll another joint

Lets head on down the road

Theres somewhere I gotta go

And you dont know how it feels

No, you dont know how it feels to be me





3rd song:



When the wind blows and the rain feels cold

With a head full of snow

With a head full of snow

In the window there's a face you know

Don't the night pass slow

Don't the nights pass slow

The sound of strangers sending nothing to my mind

Just another mad mad day on the road

I am just living to be lying by your side

But I'm just about a moonlight mile on down the road

Made a rag pile of my shiny clothes

Gonna warm my bones

Gonna warm my bones

I got silence on my radio

Let the air waves flow

Let the air waves flow

Oh I'm sleeping under strange strange skies

Just another mad mad day on the road

My dreams is fading down the railway line

I'm just about a moonlight mile on down the road

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

I'm hiding sister and I'm dreaming

I'm riding down your moonlight mile

I'm hiding baby and I'm dreaming

I'm riding down your moonlight mile

I'm riding down you moonlight mile

Let it go now, come on up babe

Yeah, let it go now

Yeah, flow now baby

Yeah move on now yeah

Yeah, I'm coming home

'Cause, I'm just about a moonlight mile on down the road

Down the road, down the road

Yeah, yeah, hey hey hey baby, now







4th song:

On the turning away

From the pale and downtrodden

And the words they say

Which we won't understand

%26quot;Don't accept that what's happening

Is just a case of others' suffering

Or you'll find that you're joining in

The turning away%26quot;

It's a sin that somehow

Light is changing to shadow

And casting it's shroud

Over all we have known

Unaware how the ranks have grown

Driven on by a heart of stone

We could find that we're all alone

In the dream of the proud

On the wings of the night

As the daytime is stirring

Where the speechless unite

In a silent accord

Using words you will find are strange

And mesmerised as they light the flame

Feel the new wind of change

On the wings of the night

No more turning away

From the weak and the weary

No more turning away

From the coldness inside

Just a world that we all must share

It's not enough just to stand and stare

Is it only a dream that there'll be

No more turning away?





These are pretty easy, but good luck anyhow!
