do you mean Jefferson Starship? (or Starship, they've changed their name too many times)... i'm not familiar with the Fleetwood Mac song...
Uhh, have you actually ever listened to the lyrics of American Woman.
LOL!!! Too funny.
i do like Tavares’s version better than the BeeGees...
To the tune of "Davey Crockett"...
Born on a mountain top in De-na-li
In the biggest state in the land of the free
Raised in the woods so she knew every tree
.....Killed her a bear when she was only three-
Sarah, Sarah Palin, Queen of the wild frontier.
Nancy Pelosi said “She’s not right for the job”
Sarah kept on working and didn’t stop to sob
What she said next made the Speaker’s head throb
“My book sold more than yours, so shut up you Frisco snob !”
Sarah, Sarah Palin, Queen of the wild frontier.
I’ve got two.
Sung to the tune of “Oh! Susanna, don’t you cry for me.”
“Oh, no Bama, please don’t lie to me... for I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee.”
I come from Minnesota with my laptop on my knee;
I’m goin’ to Free Republic my true love for to see.
It rained all night the day I left,
the weather it was dry;
The sun so hot I froze to death,
Obama don’t you lie.
Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I come from Minnesota,
with my laptop on my knee.
I had a dream the other night,
When everything was still;
I thought I saw Obama dear,
A-coming for The Hill.
The smearing lie was in Duluth,
The tear was in his eye,
Said I, I’m coming for the truth
Obama don’t you lie.
Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic,
with my laptop on my knee.
I fight in my pajamas,
It’s plain for all to see.
I aim to be the next Buckhead;
The media all hate me.
I fell in love with Sarah
When my sister bit a moose.
The Guvnor’s family ate it up
And then they set it loose.
Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic,
with my laptop on my knee.
She loves her sons, she likes her guns,
and Trigonometry.
The media will jump the shark
When Juan makes history.
Well, JimRob knows she’ll pave the trolls
So controversially,
And Berg will knock Obama down
With friends of Hillary.
Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee.
I soon will be in Hawaii,
And then I’ll look all ‘round,
And when I find his birth record,
I’ll fall upon the ground.
But if I do not find it,
This Freeper’ll surely die,
And when I’m dead and buried,
Obama don’t you lie.
Oh! No Bama, don’t you cry for me;
I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee

Jefferson Starship’s “Sarah” adapted to Free Republic:
Go now,
Don’t look back we’ve drawn the line,
move on,
They’re no good like an organ grind
We’ll never find another girl like you,
for happy endings it takes two,
with fire and ice, a dream that comes true.
(Chorus)
Sara, Sara
storms are brewing in your eyes,
Sara, Sara
no time is a good time for goodbyes
Danger,
in the game when the stakes are high,
branded,
my heart was branded while my senses stood by,
We’ll never find another girl like you,
for happy endings it takes two,
with fire and ice, a dream that comes true.
(Chorus)
Sara, Sara
storms are brewing in your eyes
Sara, Sara
no time is a good time for goodbyes
Hey, Sara,
Love us like no one has ever loved us before,
hey, Sara,
hurt them no one could ever hurt them more.
Hey, Sara,
Sara,
Hey, Sara
the way you loved us before
Instrumental
We’ll never find a girl like you,
with fire and ice, a dream that comes true
Chorus
Sara, Sara
no time is a good time for
Sara, Sara
storms are brewing in your eyes
Sara, Sara
no time is good time for goodbyes
Sara, Sara
storms are brewing in your eyes
Sara, Sara
no time is a good time
no-oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-Sara
why did they, the media,
why did they all fall apart?
Tuff Enuff...
how about something from Diddy? guess not.
Great minds, and all that.
Let’s call it a draw. The BeeGees always were my favorites. But Tavares is great as well.
Who’s That Lady (Isley Brothers)
Taking Care of Business (BTO)
The Romantics - What I like about you

Ditto!
Agree: Takin’ Care of Business.
uh--yes... but can't we change the lyrics to fit the song? not all the songs posted are appropiate as is...
From the “grooveyard of forgotten favorites”, August, 1969, Gary Puckett and the Union Gap, “This Girl is a Woman Now”, absolutely phenomenal record:
This girl walked in dreams, Playing in a world of her own.
This girl was a child, Existing in a playground of stone.
Then, one night her world was changed;
Her life and dreams were rearranged.
She would never be the same again.
chorus
This Girl is a Woman Now; She’s learned how to live.
This Girl is a Woman Now.
She’s found out what it’s all about
And she’s learnin’, learnin’ to live.
This girl tasted love, as tender as the gentle dawn.
She cried a single tear, A teardrop that was sweet and warm.
Our hearts told us we were right,
And on that sweet velvet night.
A child had died, a woman had been born.
chorus
