I've heard the band before as I do listen to different music styles except hip hop/rap. I would have never won the grand prize if this was the question. 18 minutes ago, Blackwater 53393 said: I've heard of the band and Hatfield, my son, sometimes listens to the more modern stuff so I've likely heard it before!! Wouldn't have ever come up with it on my own. I went to an inner city high school that was incredibly diverse before the word “diverse” became a popular pc catch word. Old school hip hop / rap was and is something I am fine with, and I keep some on my playlists to this day. With two daughters very into music, and my youngest being almost encyclopedic in her knowledge and interest of music, it was hard not to get to know more modern music. Since I’ve got a hunch nobody is going to come up with the answer, I’ll say I find a lot of Fall Out Boy’s music to be enjoyable, and Dance, Dance features prominently on my running playlist.

There was a time, early in life, When he gambled the game and he carried the knife, And he was winnin’ that very night. He cussed the devil, yes he cussed him good, And he swore he’d whip him, yes he swore he could, And he dared him to come to him if he would. I’m gonna say that this one has got the audience stumped, so I’m gonna spill. Black Oak Arkansas: “Uncle Lijiah” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoyt Axton's Lightning Bar Blues? Yes, I will admit, even though I like Hoyt Axton, this is one I wasn't familiar with. It was also recorded by Arlo Guthrie and others.

I know they are listed as two songs, but I have to believe they are intended as one, to be played together, especially considering the ending with the repeated "mother" "nature" and "no sugar."

On that "Live at the Paramount" album, they do "New Mother Nature" as a stand alone number and in a more Blues style. Even the tune is somewhat different!! Check it out. I think you'll like it!!

John Kloehr Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Try this one: Mildew, rot, and a warping floor. And your clothes start sprouting penicillin. And the planking collapses when your kid pokes at it with a lollipop stick. And that monster engine don't help a lot, it roars and sparks and you make one knot. This might be google-proof (really obscure). I clearly remember the album name, I think I remember the song name. Give me the next lyric for the win! Bonus if the song name matches my memory.

Cypress Sun Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 This is the second verse of the song. The song was done by two artists although one made it popular.
