Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again

Hard Times in New York Town

Meet Me In St. Louis

San Francisco Bay Blues

L.A. Woman

Streets of London

Chattanooga Choo-Choo

Werewolves of London

Birmingham Sunday

Veracruz

Chicago

Of the above, "Veracruz" and "Werewolves of London" are by the esteemed Warren Zevon. My apologies for unintentional repeats. Boy, I was frustrated that somebody got "First We Take Manhattan..." before I saw this thread. Bob Dylan wins for longest title (and song).

Stick the word "Guelph" in any of these titles for a laugh. It's my favourite city name in Ontario, Canada. My favourite anywhere is Schenectady...it sounds like a sneeze combined with a very uncomfortable contortion of the larynx. NO ONE has written a song with either Guelph or Schenectady in the title for some strange reason...
