Recommended Posts

so i was just coming home from driving my daughter to school and a song that i hadnt heard in yearssssssss came on...

this was one of my favorite song when i was young... i identified with it... read the lyrics since i assume most of you are too young to know it.....

now who is scared of me :P

You live your life in the songs you hear

On the rock and roll radio

And when a young girl doesn't have any friends

That's a really nice place to go

Folks hoping you'd turn out cool

But they had to take you outta school

You're a little touched you know, Angie Baby

Lovers appear in your room each night

And they whirl you across the floor

But they always seem to fade away

When your daddy taps on your door

Angie girl, are you all right

Tell the radio good-night

All alone once more, Angie Baby

Angie Baby, you're a special lady

Living in a world of make-believe

Well, maybe

Stopping at her house is a neighbor boy

With evil on his mind

'Cause he's been peeking in Angie's room

At night through her window blind

I see your folks have gone away

Would you dance with me today

I'll show you how to have a good time, Angie Baby

When he walks in her room,

He feels confused like he's walked into a play

And the music's so loud it spins him around

'Til his soul has lost its way

And as she turns the volume down

He's getting smaller with the sound

It seems to pull him off the ground

Toward the radio he's bound never to be found

The headlines read that a boy disappeared

and everyone thinks he died

'Cept a crazy girl with a secret lover

Who keeps her satisfied

It's so nice to be insane

No one asks you to explain

Radio by your side, Angie Baby

Angie Baby, you're a special lady

Living in a world of make-believe

Well, maybe

Well, maybe

I can't speak for GG, but I'd take a guess at it being her listening to music as an escape.

But if she meant it verbatim, then I don't know, maybe she is crazy. :lol:

(kidding of course, gg)

LJ is right.,.. and i am also a bit crazy..but i like to call it "quirky" :lol:

greengal = freaky deaky

is that in your dreams???:shock:

greengal was very popular in High school :winking0001:

actually i wsnt popular at all... honest... i was one of the kids constantly picked on.

I don't know about what went on then - but GG is one of the neatest people I know. Musically, I don't know many ladies who have her eclectic taste and knowledge that don't make their living in the industry. :Loveheart:

for my friend, LJ ;)

Big ole ruby red dress wanders round the town

Talkin to herself now, sometimes sitten down

Don't you get too close now, ruby runs away

Poor ole ruby red dress born on a sorry day

I can hear her say

Leave me alone, won't you leave me alone

Please leave me alone now, leave me alone

Leave me alone, please leave me alone, yes leave me

Leave me alone won't you leave me alone

Please leave me alone, no leave me alone

Leave me along, just leave me alone, oh leave me

Big ole ruby red dress, everybody laughs

Say she's got no future and never made no past

Something hurt that ruby, shomething she can't bear

Ya look at her real close now, you see a little tear

When she says now

Some folks say some farm boy up from Tennessee

Taught it all to Ruby, then just let her be

Her daddy tried to hide it, tried to keep things cool

But something happened to Ruby, she broke down to a fool

who just said now
