02 Nov 00 - 02:51 PM (#332931) Subject: Blue Bonnet Girl From: Allan C. Thanks for dropping in, Chris. Normally a lyric request gets a response in just a few minutes - especially if the song title (or words germane to the song) are featured in the thread title. I did a brief search on this song and was unable to locate anything helpful. I suggest you post a NEW thread with the song name in the thread title. |
02 Nov 00 - 03:24 PM (#332957) Subject: RE: Lyrics Needed From: MMario or not, I did an extended search on this and came up with some recordings for sale, but no lyrics, no midi's, not even any mp3's |
02 Nov 00 - 04:31 PM (#333006) Subject: RE: Lyrics Needed From: GUEST,O'Donnellt@esatclear.ie Hi I'm looking for the lyrics of a song - sung by Jim McCann called "Times have Changed". It's on his album Jim McCann/Greatest Hits Live. Can anyone help? |
02 Nov 00 - 04:33 PM (#333009) Subject: RE: Lyrics Needed From: mousethief Guests, for best response you need to create a new thread, select the "LyrReq" header, and put the title (or if you don't know that some phrase from the song) as the thread title. Otherwise, people who don't know the lyrics to THIS song will never re-open this thread, and yet they may know the lyrics to YOUR song. Just FYI.

02 Nov 00 - 06:06 PM (#333073) Subject: RE: Lyrics Needed From: Stewie I have a 1936 Los Angeles recording by Jimmie Davis of a song titled 'My Blue Bonnet Girl', but it seems to be different from what you describe. The attribution is to Davis alone, although Tony Russell notes that it was claimed by the songwriter Bonnie Dodd. The first line is:
From the wild coyote's howl where the little dogies prowled The chorus is:
You can keep your violets blue --Stewie.

02 Nov 00 - 06:28 PM (#333090) Subject: RE: Lyrics Needed From: catspaw49 I searched all over too and couldn't find a thing either. But I did note that Don Meixner has mentioned this one a few times in threads regarding the "Sons of the Pioneers." I PMed him and asked that he check in here if he has any info. AGAIN, TO OUR GUESTS>>>>>>> PLEASE ... When requesting lyrics its best to search the database and the forum FIRST...and then start a NEW THREAD with either the TITLE or a LINE FROM THE SONG inthe title of the thread and use the LYR REQ prefix. This will get better results than adding on to another thread that is already vague, such as this one. We try to answer all of these, but they are easy to miss unless you do it as I just said. Thanks for coming to the Mudcat and feel free to hang out. Spaw |
02 Nov 00 - 11:33 PM (#333283) Subject: RE: Lyrics Needed From: DonMeixner An absolutely beautiful song. I will be glad to type this one out for you on the week end. I am just unable to get the LP ouy of the attaic of no return right now. Don |
