Broken Arrow Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 After thinking this over, this may not be fair. It's a pretty old song so I'll give you the answer. "Big River" from Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan. I never knew they sang together. This is from 1969. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yn_p1hHFedU Let's try another one: "Well I don't know why I came here tonight, I gotta feeling that somethin' ain't right."

It was played on album oriented stations so that counts. I remember it I just can't think of the song right now

Don't know the title but then I never did like the stones to much. unless it was covered by Flying Burrito brothers also which would make it dead flowers but I think that's another song.

"Momma Told Me not to Come" by Three Dog Night.
I told my boss where to get off two months ago today
Now the bills are pilling high and they're hauling things away
They took the living room sofa, the Kool-Aid stains and all
Now my butt's down on a hardwood floor and my back's against the wall

Last night I turned in early 'cause they turned off lights

Let's try again.
Same artist, different song.
"I'm in heaven
With the maven of funk mutation.
Clinton's musicians such as Bootsy Collins
Raise expectations to a new intention.
No one can sing
Quite like Smokey, Smokey Robinson.
Wailin' and shakin' to Bob Marley
Reggae's expanding with Sly and Robbie."
