02 Sep 01 - 08:37 PM (#540494) Subject: Lyr Add: WALK ON BY (Kendall Hayes) From: Sorcha WALK ON BY If I see you tomorrow on some street in town Pardon me if I don't say hello (say hello) I belong to another it wouldn't look so good To know someone I'm not supposed to know. Just walk on by wait on the corner I love you but we're strangers when we meet Just walk on by wait on the corner I love you but we're strangers when we meet In a dimly lit corner in a place outside of town Tonight we'll try to say goodbye again (say goodbye) But I know it's not over I'll call tomorrow night I can't let you go so why pretend Just walk on by wait on the corner I love you but we're strangers when we meet Just walk on by wait on the corner I love you but we're strangers when we meet I love you but we're strangers when we meet (Please and thank you would be nice........) |

02 Sep 01 - 11:21 PM (#540556) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: just walk on by wait on the corner From: Amos It may be a mondgreen, but I always thought the line was, "Just walk on by, way down at the corner". Telling someone to walk on by and wait at the corner sounds like contrary information to me. Or is it the implicit notion that he will go around theblock and meet her at the corner? Tangled webs, indeed. How come is it country andf western singers are alweays being sucked into these adulterous relationships? Oh, and poitin... seeing as how you are drawing on the voluntary help of friendly people who really do have other things to do with their time, I concur that "please" and "thanks" might make the wheels turn a bit more smoothly, ya know...this isn't a dot-com jukebox here.

That's what I've always heard on the Leroy Van Dyke recording. Funny how the same lyrics can be heard differently by different listeners. "They have slain the Earl of Murray And Lady Mondegreen" (layd him on the green) (The Bonny Earl of Murray, Child Ballad #181) Concerning why C&W singers get sucked into adulterous relationships, in my opinion they don't do so any more than anyone else, they just like to sing about it.
