Name that Tune

This is the song that those three "Dixie Chicks" named their band after.

They were GOING to be called the "Dixie Chickens", but one chickened out.

This is "DIXIE CHICKEN", by Little Feat.

That was their first big hit, I believe.

(After this came "Feats Don't Fail Me Now", "Let It Roll", "One Clear Moment",

"Sure Would Hate To Lose Your Loving", and "Rad Gumbo".)

In my high school yearbook, one grad's yearbook quote was

"I'll be your Dixie chicken if you'll be my Tennessee lamb."

She left the rest of us to figure it out. icon_smile.gif:)-->

Now, Pirate, I was five years old when that song came out in 1973. icon_biggrin.gif:D-->

I just happen to be from the south where I learned to appreciate Southern Rock, cold beer, crawfish boils and watching the paddle boats on the Mississippi River. wink2.gif;)--> This is the kind of music I listen to when I get homesick. Can't find good crawfish down here, so I have to settle for Uncle Jones' BBQ where his slogan's true: Nuthin' Mo Betta!. The fried okra there is to die for!

"Joy to the World" by 3 Dog Night is the first song I learned all the words to. Barry Manilow's "I Write the Songs" second.

Go for it WordWolf!

You call me strong, you call me weak

but still your secrets I will keep

You took for granted all the times I'd never let you down.

You stumbled in and bumped your head

If not for me, then you'd be dead

I picked you up and put you back in solid ground.

If I go crazy then will you still call me Superman

If I'm alive and well, will you be there a-holding my hand

Too recent for you guys?
