Lyrics Quiz: Tuesdays Titles
Posted: Tue Apr 08, 2008 6:39 am
On future Tuesdays, I will probably give you a theme... but not today. You'll have to figure it out. However, unless you're playing this while hiding under a rock, you might even figure it out without guessing a single song correctly as the theme is contained in the song titles, the artists, and even the lyrics I quoted below.
1. It's the one who won't be taken
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul afraid of dyin'
That never learns to live
2. They've got catfish on the table
They've got gospel in the air
And Reverend Green be glad to see you
3. So many times, it happens too fast
You change your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive
4. Don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
5. Football, baseball, basketball games
Drinkin’ bear, kickin’ ass and takin’ down names
With the top down, get-a-round, shootin’ the line
Summer is here and Johnny’s feelin’ fine
6. Once in your life you find her
Someone that turns your heart around
And next thing you know you're closing down the town
7. My basketball coach he done kicked me off the team
For wearing high heeled sneakers and acting like a queen
(Ha ha ha ha ha)
8. In west Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school
9. I was lying there thinking 'bout basketball
Trying not to lose my mind
My baby came to help and I let out a yell
She grabbed me from behind
10. And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I've come through
Bonus: Identify today's theme.
Double Bonus: This should be super-easy. Songs #1 and #6 were theme songs for movies. Name the movies. (10 points each.)
Final Bonus: The "featured" artist on #7 was really a combination of two different artists. Name them. (10 points each.)
