"Don't You Just Know It"
Huey "piano" Smith




Lyrics
I can't lose with the stuff I use
(Don't you just know it)
Baby, don't believe I wear two left shoes
(Don't you just know it)

Hey, pretty baby, can we go strollin'
(Don't you just know it)
You got me rockin' when I wanna be rollin'
(Don't you just know it)

Baby, baby, you're my blue heaven
(Don't you just know it)
You got me pushin' when I wanna be shoving
(Don't you just know it)

The older the woman, the more she teases
(Don't you just know it)
The younger the Couple, the tighter they squeeze
(Don't you just know it)

The Girl From Ipanema is a far weirder song than you thought

Why Me?

Not first time I heard a song I liked on the radio and got my phone to tell me the artist was Billy Joel. Gonna have to check out an album I think.

my girlfriend hates this one ... Don't know if that's why I like it or not.. But I mouth the words and really sell it..

Either FedEx or the USPS has been playing Johnny Cash's cover of this song, one of my faves:

we have likes now lol. not sure how I feel about that.

IMO this song was the harbinger of the collapse into the black hole of moral depravity that we find ourselves trapped in modern times:

"If it makes you happy"
Sheryl Crow



I've been long, a long way from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes
And drank 'til I was thirsty again
We went searching through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen

Well okay, I made this up
I promised you I'd never give up

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?

We get down, areal low down
You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train
Well, who hasn't been there before?
I come proud, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you French toast again

Well okay, I still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?

We've been far
Far away from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes
And everywhere in between

Well okay, we get along
So what if right now everything's wrong?

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?

"Alfie"



What's it all about, Alfie?
Is it just for the moment we live?
What's it all about when you sort it out, Alfie?
Are we meant to take more than we give?
Or are we meant to be kind?

And if only fools are kind, Alfie
Then I guess it is wise to be cruel
And if life belongs only to the strong, Alfie
What will you lend on an old golden rule?

As sure as I believe there's a heaven above, Alfie
I know there's something much more
Something even non-believers can believe in

I believe in love, Alfie
Without true love we just exist, Alfie
Until you find the love you've missed, you're nothing, Alfie

When you walk, let your heart lead the way
And you'll find love any day, Alfie
Alfie
