Nobody on the road, nobody on the beach. I feel it in the air, the summer's out of reach.
Empty lake, empty streets, the sun goes down alone.
I'm driving by your house, though I know you're not home.
But I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun,
you got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby.
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong after the boys of summer have gone.
I never will forget those nights, I wonder if it was a dream.
Remember how you made me crazy? Remember how I made you scream?
Now I don't understand what's happened to our love,
but babe, I'm gonna get you back, I'm gonna show you what I'm made of.
I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun.
I see you walking real slow and you're smiling at everyone.
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong after the boys of summer have gone.
Out on the road today I saw a ?Deadhead? sticker on a Cadillac.
A little voice inside my head said, "Don't look back. You can never look back."
I thought I knew what love was, what did I know?
Those days are gone forever, I should just let them go but
I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun,
you got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby.
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong after the boys of summer have gone.
I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun.
You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby.
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong after the boys of summer have gone.

Ah, memories. The Boys of Summer makes me so nostalgic for the times my friends and I would be driving in the Red Karma Ghia convertible, blasting this song and singing along along the La Jolla coast line.

Can't keep me down
Can't keep me down, down
Can't keep me down
I said you can't keep me down
You know you can't keep me down
I said you can't keep me down
Hey, hey, man! what's your problem?
I see you tryin' to hurt me bad
Don't know what youre up against
Maybe you should reconsider
Come up with another plan
Cuz you know I'm not that kinda girl
That'll lay there and let you come first
You can push me out the window
I'll just get back up
You can run over me with your 18 wheeler truck
And I won't give a fuck
You can hang me like a slave
I'll go underground
You can run over me with your 18 wheeler but
You can't keep me down, down, down, down
Can't keep me down, down
Can't keep me down, down, down
Can't keep me down, down
Hey, hey, girl! are you ready for today?
You got your shield and sword?
Cuz it's time to play the games
You are beautiful
Even though you're not for sure
Don't let him pull you by the scar
Your'e gonna get your feelings hurt
You can push me out the window
I'll just get back up
You can run over me with your 18 wheeler truck
And I won't give a fuck
You can hang me like a slave
I'll go underground
You can run over me with your 18 wheeler but
You can't keep me down, down, down, down
You can push me out the window
I'll just get back up
You can run over me with your 18 wheeler truck
And I won't give a fuck
You can hang me like a slave
I'll go underground
You can run over me with your 18 wheeler but
You can't keep me down, down, down, down
Everywhere that I go
There's someone waitin' to chain me
Everything that I say
There's someone tryin' to short-change me
I am only this way
Because of what you have made me
And I'm not gonna break!
You can push me out the window
I'll just get back up
You can run over me with your 18 wheeler truck
And I won't give a fuck
You can hang me like a slave
I'll go underground
You can run over me with your 18 wheeler but
You can't keep me down, down, down, down
To All the 'non-chick-music-club' members: forgive this post, please?!
If in any way redeeming, I'm listening to SRV/Voodoo Chile! He so rocks - even 10 years after! and ZZTop...
These lyrics 'slapped me in the face', instantly making me think of some Fornits posters, who we'll let remain anon (as if hehehe) no sexual references apply literally in my associations

--- Quote from: ""3xsaSeedling"" ---"I'm One"
Every year is the same
And I feel it again,
I'm a loser - no chance to win.
Leaves start falling,
Come down is calling,
Loneliness starts sinking in.
But I'm one.
I am one.
And I can see
That this is me,
And I will be,
You'll all see
I'm the one.
Where do you get
Those blue blue jeans?
Faded patched secret so tight.
Where do you get
That walk oh so lean?
Your shoes and your shirts
All just right.
But I'm one etc.
I got a Gibson
Without a case
But I can't get that even tanned look on my face.
Ill fitting clothes
I blend in the crowd,
Fingers so clumsy
Voice too loud.
But I'm one.

Great song. I posted a quote from a recent Pete Townshend interview on a thread that greedhead bastard TheWho was trolling on, Pete was pointing out the need to keep kids safe, it was our obligation. It was pretty obvious Pete would find the idea of locking someone up for going through the Sturm and drang of adolescence to be anathema. Can you believe TheWho quoted "I'm One" and tried to rationalize the lyrics into a cry for a program, or something? I couldn't finish reading his idiocy. I told him his "Ultimate Yuppie" programs-for-profit loving ass confronting survivors reminded me of "The Punk Meets The Godfather".

That's some funny shit there, Zen!
I thought you would enjoy those Townsend lyrics.
When I see thePunk, ignore; if I can't, I logoff.
18 Wheeler lyrics ROCK...
