And, he's not always grumpy, but someone has to fulfill the role of Resident Curmudgeon!

Hi MJOB,

Try using
Google.com
       for searches. Just pick a phrase and put it in double quotes, e.g.

"I've been searching for a man of glory" lyrics

If you do a search for

lyrics

then you will also find a lot of really good lyric sites.

This is a folk & blues site, but welcome! And there are a lot of very knowledgable and nice people here, so just take grumpy BillD's comments in your stride. ;->

It's called "He Said" and I found the lyrics here -- page down til you get to the right song.

(And some of us folkies aren't so cranky.)

and is there NO place dedicated to rock music to ask? (you may indeed get an answer, as there are those not so grumpy as I am about keeping this a FOLKish forum...)

ah, well...so it goes...

If you could even just think of the ARTIST that would be a great help also! I heard this song from an old friends cd, and i can't figure out who it is by!

The begining of the song starts out
I was helping dress a boy
I like to play with my toys
I just watch T.V.   - or something like that. Later on the song says
I went to the beach
Saw a man there, he looked disturbed
I asked him whats the matter
he said i looked like someone he once knew
One glance at this guy,
i could tell he couldn't tell a lie    - thats sorta a rough edge of how it goes... The refrain/chorus goes
I've been searching for a man of glory
I've told a million stories
If you'd just listen to me.    - I know thats the chorus/refrain or whatever u call it. At about 3 minute mark xylophones go on. Its a fast paced rock type song. Please help!
