Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs About Hands! From: George Papavgeris Date: 26 Jun 08 - 06:04 AM "Touch has a memory" by Clive James/Pete Atkin: "...When in a later day Little of the vision lingers Memory slips away Every way but through the fingers Textures come back to you real as can be Making you feel time doesn't heal And touch has a memory." |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Songs About Hands! From: GUEST,Chelsea Date: 26 Jun 08 - 04:51 AM I am looking for this song, I am honestly not sure how it goes. It was a sort of rap/r & b song from the 90's. The singer says something about getting killed for their hands...he goes on talking about all these things that happen to young kids just for their hands. It sounds like it could be a everlast/whitey ford/danzig song. It is driving me crazy not being able to find it. Any help would be great, thanks. |

Subject: Lyr Add: SEE THESE HANDS (Frank Mansell) From: Newport Boy Date: 22 Mar 08 - 04:59 PM You might like a poem: SEE THESE HANDS Frank Mansell (The Cotswold Poet) See these hands folded now, Hands that wrought for so many, Tended and tidied a family, Soothed them and calmed them, Fed, clothed and reared them Almost on nothing. See these hands resting That in the old hard days Picked blackberries for pennies And gathered dry sticks in bundles, In dim March days I scarcely remember When beech woods were a mystery And fox cubs played among daffodils. See these hands resting, That raked hay in the fields Of a summer coloured with butterflies, That brought tea and sandwiches To tired men at harvest, And scattered wheat and Argentinian maize To hungry hens. See these hands, hands never still, Hands they have folded now, Hands that are resting, That will never be active again, Long though I kneel for their blessing. (Written on the death of his mother) Phil |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: SONGS ABOUT HANDS! From: GUEST,Bob Coltman Date: 22 Mar 08 - 02:23 PM "My Mother's Hands," by Shortbuckle Roark on Victor (1920s I think). "Mother Called Her Child To Her Dyin' Bed," has the line "I'm goin' to leave you in the hands of my God," 1920s blues. "Trust your life in the hands of God" from "Jay Gould's Daughter." Lots more hands of God to be found in ancient gospel music if the spirit moves! ... Bob |

Subject: Lyr Add: THE HANDS OF JOSEPH (Ralph McTell) From: Bonnie Shaljean Date: 22 Mar 08 - 01:51 PM Nice one, Moley - your Ma & Pa's piano stool is obviously a swinging place to hang out - Anyway, back to business: THE HANDS OF JOSEPH Ralph McTell When they looked at Joseph's hands They said, They're the hands of a carpenter They're big and they're powerful and they're strong They're the hands that should work in wood And they're the hands that should work a long day Joseph he did all those things But he also learned how to play Chorus He would sing about joy, sing about faith That the people wished they had How he heard the voice of Jesus When the rolling sea got mad He's a boat in the harbour, he's safe in that love He know some day he'll be sailing above When they looked at Joseph's hands They said, They're the hands of a stonemason They're big and they're powerful and they're strong They're the hands that should work in stone And they're the hands that should work a long day Joseph he did all those things But he also learned how to play When they looked at Joseph's hands They said, They're the hands of a fisherman The musician and the mason-carpenter And he's happy all the time For they're working every day And those old hands of Joseph Oh how they can play. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: SONGS ABOUT HANDS! From: open mike Date: 21 Jun 04 - 01:55 PM the Two Good Hands song about Sacco and Venzetti is by John McCutcheon, i think. and on his Greatest Story Never told c.d: "Extend a Hand" "As we seek to understand The meaning of our history We each extend a hand" and the Master's Hand about a fiddle being auctioned has been sung by Laurie Lewis. The original poem is by Myra Brooks Welch. "the foolish crowd can hever quite understand the worth of a soul and the change that is wrought by the touch of the master's hand. In Jackson Browne's "Before the Deluge" is the line "While the sand slipped through the opening Their hands reached for the golden ring In their hearts they turned to each other's hearts for refuge In those troubled years that came before the deluge" \Peter Rowan's song "Before the Streets Were Paved" says " Oh, grandfather tell me is it true you worked the land and the tools that you used were made with your own hands?" and Peter Rowan also has this linie in "The Forest For The Trees" "I cleared this land with my bare hands, she gave me everything for free, she gave so much i could not see the forest for the trees." In Greg Brown's song Canned Goods : "When i go to see my grandma,I gain a lot of weight, with her dear hands she feeds me plate after plate" In Tommy Thompson (Red Clay Ramblers) Hot Buttered Rum: "Dime store santas can't disguise their empty hand and empty eyes" Tom Paxton's Last Thing on my mind has: In the wink of an eye my soul is turning, in your hand, in your hand" Kate Wolf's LIlac and Apple says: A long time ago we were planted by hands that worked in the mines and the mills in Stephanie Davis' song the Rope, which is sung by Laurie Lewis: Grab (oh reach up for the rope) and hold (withe both hands hod it tight) through the darkness...shines the light. in Townes Van Zant's Tecumsaeh valley Caroline : for a dime a day and a place to stay she would turn those hands to labor in Vincent (starry starry night) Weathered faces lined in pain are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand Greg Brown wrote a song about Ani De Franco (Vivid) YOu gave me music, with the boquet form your hand You gave me a living song something i could understand and in Billy from the Hills, (another greg brown tune) If you're looking for a helping hand, he'll give you one, you know he will another Greg tune form the same album Speaking in Tongues: When someone was sick we gathered all around them and layed our hands upon them, old and young.... and that one day we may lay our hand on one another and seek the healing for ourselves.... and from Down at the mill (same slant 6 mind c.d. as the former quotes) their hands are filthy, their souls are dirty My friend Bernie Robinson has a song about Left Handed people called What's Left. \ and there are many other songs that have touching, holding, massaging, throwing, paddling, hitch hiking, grabbing and other things that hands, fingers, thumbs, etc. do. good luck and sorry for repeat info.... |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: SONGS ABOUT HANDS! From: GUEST,Philippa Date: 15 Jun 04 - 05:06 AM Ewan MacColl had one about evolution and progress; my rough memory of it is - "Five fingers has the hand, five fingers, five fingers, Five fingers has the hand, good for work and play. Started as a lizard's claw, then became a lion's paw, Couldn't be satisfied because that isn't the human way." Irish tune "Tabhair dom do lamh", give me your hands; there are modern composed words in English someplace on the Cat I believe. Did I miss "He's got the whole world in his hands" on this page or on Conrad's page? lots of songs with verses about hands, for instance, "If you can't go on any longer, take the hand held by your sister, Every victory's gonna bring another, Carry it on, Carry it on." or "The Junta shot the fingers off Victor Jara's hands/They said to the gentle poet/Play now your guitar if you can/ It could have been me, but instead it was you ...." (Holly Near) Hand Me Down My Walking Cane ? "Handy" the sculpture reminds me of Shiva |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: SONGS ABOUT HANDS! From: SharonA Date: 15 Feb 02 - 03:10 PM Blackcatter: The loss of all hands was the subject of Gordon Lightfoot's song, but the word "hands" is never used in the lyrics of "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald". #! Peasant: Don't forget about "The Banks of the Ohio" and the many versions of the "Two Sisters" ballad theme, in all of which the murderer takes the victim by the hand and walks along the river, only to throw the victim into the water and drown her. Crash Test Dummies have a song called "Give Yourself a Hand". I'll let you look up that one yourself without a link from me, since I'm feeling a bit prudish today. *blushing at the subject matter of the song* |

Subject: Lyr Add: THE HAND THAT OPENS EMPTY (Bob Reid) From: SharonA Date: 14 Feb 02 - 02:55 PM THE HAND THAT OPENS EMPTY From Bob Reid's CD "We Are The Children" words & music © Bob Reid 1993 My Dad works for a company that everybody knows They moved their business out of town but not everybody goes And sometimes we have problems when it's time to pay the rent And sometimes I get hungry and all the money's spent To the land of opportunity came my mother, me and Dad Looking for a better life than the kind of life we had And sometimes we have trouble 'cause we get so little pay And sometimes I get hungry 'cause we eat one meal a day And the hand that opens empty is difficult to hear Above the noises of our lives though it may be very near Someday it may be your hand, Someday it may be mine We all must keep on listening to hear that hand in time I'll hold that hand in mine I like to go and visit James when he's feeling up to it It's hard just living everyday but he doesn't want to quit And sometimes he has trouble cause it costs a lot to live And sometimes he gets hungry and something's got to give There's a woman in our neighborhood her family's grown and gone Alone in her living room the curtains are all drawn And sometime she has trouble cause it's hard to get around And sometime's she gets hungry and she can't get downtown And the hand that opens empty is difficult to hear Above the noises of our lives though it may be very near Someday it may be your hand, Someday it may be mine We all must keep on listening to hear that hand in time I'll hold that hand in mine, I'll hold that hand in mine from this page: Bob Reid Lyrics |

Subject: Lyr Add: TWO LITTLE HANDS (Al Boyce) From: Trapper Date: 14 Feb 02 - 12:16 PM Here's one I wrote for my baby daughter... TWO LITTLE HANDS by Al Boyce Two Little Hands Reaching out to me Two Little Hands Ten little fingers wiggling Squiggly little baby giggling Two Little hands gently demand All of the loving any man can handle Just holding two little hands. Two gentle souls Stand by your side Two gentle souls Ready to guide you through life's trials And watch you grow with pride. Two gentle souls tenderly hold The little bundle sent from God to care for, Trusted to two gentle souls. Two little eyes For all the world to see. Two little eyes Holding the promises Of God's unbounded gifts to thee. Two little eyes smilingly spy To see the world look back With faith and hope renewed Into Two Little Eyes.
