Not a John Lennon tune but, it kinda captures his spirit to me:

We can walk our road together if our goals are all the same
We can run alone and free if we persue a different dream
Let the truth of love be lighted, let the love of truth shine clear
Sensability, armed with sense of liberty…..

Hmmph…no Rush fans out there, I guess. It’s The Sphere from Hemispheres.

I’m gonna try one more before I put a fork in this thread:

Eight times of fel-an-fo-fi
Like cobalt cast and clean
I got a mojo felt the wheel
Real fashion feel
Tri-Jack it, black it for more
Handcuffs with special keys
Triple locked and been down defiled
It’s a V. S. I.

[Bucky Ramone]

…Honey Bucket…Â

Little country store with a sign tacked to the side
Said no l-o-i-t-e-r-i-n-g allowed
Underneath that sign always congregated quite a crowd

Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around

Crazy Mary- Pearl Jam

Crap, cause I was gonna do State of Love and Trust eventually:

No one here is asking
But there is a question of trust.
You will do what looks good to you on paper
We will do what we must
CARRY MY BODY!!

…well, it is actually a Victoria Williams song, first covered by PJ on the ‘Sweet Relief’ tribute…. Â

your lyrics:
Fugazi – Reclamation

Every day, I get up and pray to Jah
And he increases the number of clocks by exactly one

AH HA! Patty Griffen- Useless Desires! Good one, Deepsludge.

When I was but a meger college student there was some lady covering Patty’s songs in the student union every day for like a week.

Now, for one of my favorite songs on all time:

And I tell this truth to you
Not out of spite or anger
But, simply because it’s true
Now you must provide some answers
For what you sell has not been received
And the sooner you come up with them
The sooner you can leave (cue tear inducing slide)

C’mon guys, the album this came from has been called "the very first “Country Rockâ€? album ever recorded" and "One of the most important and influential Recordings in American Popular Music History".

I’ll give ya a hint: Roger McGuinn

[Bucky Ramone]

It’s the Byrds with "Nothing was Delivered", the song is written by one Bob Dylan…. Â

Illitterati lumen fidei
God is with us everyday
That illiterate light
Is with us every night

Correctamundo! And very thurough with the whole Dylan thing, too.

Your’s is a lil’ band called Wilco- Theologians off of my album of the decade so far…

How about another "top 50 all time" for me:

Years ago my heart was set to live on
And I’ve been tryin’ hard against unbelievable odds
Gets so hard at times like now to hold on
Guns they waited to be stuck by
And at my side is God

Gosh, I;m a sucjer for harmonies

[Bucky Ramone]

….classic….

Big Star’s "The Ballad of El Goodo"

I was twenty one years when I wrote this song
I’m twenty two now, but I won’t be for long

This guys an icon! And apperantly he was deemed worthy enough to play with Wilco (where I matched the picture up) so he’s OK in my book.

It’s definately Billy Bragg (maybe with the Blokes, I’m not sure), but the song I’m gonna guess and say errrrr….New England. Maybe?

Don’t flame me to bad for the ignorance!

[Bucky Ramone]

Completely correct, it’s "A new England", probably better known by the beautiful version that Kirsty MacColl made of it….

[duane]

Let’s stay on your side of the Atlantic. I’m listening to this right now:

Baby if you got to rock
I got to be your rockin’ horse
Baby think you’d like to roll
Maybe your diggin’ it more

[duane]

Baby if you got to rock
I got to be your rocking horse

Anybody…….Can’t believe Bucky didn’t jump all over this one.

Hint: This guy replaced Eric Clapton in the Bluesbreakers, he also wrote a song made famous by Santana…
