<b><span style="font-size: large;">Ghost Riders In The Sky Lyric</span></b><br>
<br>
An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day<br>
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way<br>
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw<br>
A-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw<br>
<br>
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel<br>
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel<br>
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky<br>
For he saw the Riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry<br>
<br>
Yippie yi Ohhhhh<br>
Yippie yi yaaaaay<br>
Ghost Riders in the sky<br>
<br>
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat<br>
He's riding hard to catch that herd, but he ain't caught 'em yet<br>
'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky<br>
On horses snorting fire<br>
As they ride on hear their cry<br>
<br>
<br>
As the riders loped on by him he heard one call his name<br>
If you want to save your soul from Hell a-riding on our range<br>
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride<br>
Trying to catch the Devil's herd, across these endless skies<br>
<br>
Yippie yi Ohhhhh<br>
Yippie yi Yaaaaay<br>
<br>
Ghost Riders in the sky<br>
Ghost Riders in the sky<br>

Black Sabbath - War Pigs

"War Pigs" is a song by English heavy metal band Black Sabbath from their 1970 album Paranoid. It is generally understood that the song is a protest against the Vietnam War; however, when the band played "War Pigs" live in the mid-1970s, scenes from World War II were projected for audiences.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcq_9YU8eL7FmfCzpMiNEa8yKhjo3g-gX1veEarbX8Ea91TPAKYYccKwvizAXdzVf6XkSdAHSjENGxmGRwkt1HXhWCrkiMhr8hSGp17uCc0R40luhyphenhyphenSi0DEZkIgseuxth6TsAS7hEy_i0s/s640/black-sabbath.jpg" width="640" /><br />
<br />
"War Pigs" is the opening track on Paranoid, Black Sabbath's best-selling album. It can also be found in every live and compilation album by the band except Cross Purposes Live, along with "Paranoid" itself and "Iron Man". The outro to "War Pigs" has its own name, "Luke's Wall" (named in homage to the band's two-man road crew, Geoff "Luke" Lucas and Spock Wall) and features a more melodic tone than the rest of the song. The last few seconds of the track feature the sound of the tape speeding up, changing tempo and pitch.<br />
<br />
"War Pigs" is ranked number two on Digital Dream Door's "100 Greatest Metal Songs". Readers of Guitar World ranked the song number 56 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitar Solos.<br />
<br />

<br />
Following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the song was placed in the list of post-9/11 inappropriate titles distributed by Clear Channel.<br />
<br />
The tape copy sent to Warner Bros. Records in America contained a tape drop-out (in the left stereo channel) about a minute into the song, which has been heard on every other U.S. compilation and reissue since 1971.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Black Sabbath War Pigs Lyrics</span><br />
<br />
Generals gathered in their masses<br />
Just like witches at black masses<br />
Evil minds that plot destruction<br />
Sorcerers of death's construction<br />
In the fields the bodies burning<br />
As the war machine keeps turning<br />
Death and hatred to mankind<br />
Poisoning their brainwashed minds<br />
Oh lord yeah!<br />
<br />
Politicians hide themselves away<br />
They only started the war<br />
Why should they go out to fight?<br />
They leave that role to the poor<br />
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/black+sabbath/war+pigs_20019418.html ]<br />
Time will tell on their power minds<br />
Making war just for fun<br />
Treating people just like pawns in chess<br />
Wait 'til their judgement day comes<br />
Yeah!<br />
<br />
Now in darkness world stops turning<br />
Ashes where the bodies burning<br />
No more war pigs have the power<br />
Hand of God has struck the hour<br />
Day of judgement, God is calling<br />
On their knees the war pig's crawling<br />
Begging mercy for their sins<br />
Satan laughing spreads his wings<br />
Oh lord yeah!<br />

The Temptations - Papa Was A Rolling Stone

"Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" is a psychedelic soul song, written by Motown songwriters Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong as a single for Motown act The Undisputed Truth in 1971. This version of "Papa" was released as a single in early 1972, and peaked at number 63 on the pop charts and number 24 on the R&B charts.<br />

Later in 1972, Whitfield, who also produced the song, took "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" and remade it as a 12-minute record for The Temptations, which was a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and won three Grammy Awards in 1973.<br />

While the original Undisputed Truth version of the song has been largely forgotten, The Temptations' version of the song has been an enduring and influential soul classic. It was ranked #168 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, one of the group's three songs on the list. In retrospect, The Temptations' Otis Williams considers "Papa" to be the last real classic the group recorded.<br />

<u><span style="font-size: large;">Summertime Blues</span></u><br />
<br />
I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler<br />
About a workin' all summer just to try to earn a dollar<br />
Every time I call my baby, and try to get a date<br />
My boss says, "No dice son, you gotta work late"<br />
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do<br />
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues<br />
<br />
Well my mom and pop told me, "Son you gotta make some money,<br />
If you want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday"<br />
Well I didn't go to work, told the boss I was sick<br />
"Well you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick"<br />
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do<br />
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues<br />
<br />
I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation<br />
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations<br />
Well I called my congressman and he said quote:<br />
"I'd like to help you son but you're too young to vote"<br />
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do<br />
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues</center>
