Guess which song!

“Put silver wings, on my son’s chest.”
What is the title of the song that contains these lyris, and the artist that sings it.

I dunno who?!?!?!? :slight_smile:

I’m stumped, although I’m sure someone will be by soon enough with the right answer.

That song would be Ballad of the Green Berets

Here it is for you all

Fighting soldiers from the sky,
Fearless men who jump and die,
Men who mean just what they say
The brave men of the Green Beret.

Silver wings upon their chests,
These are men, America’s best,
One hundred men we’ll test today,
But only three win the Green Beret.

Trained to live off nature’s land,
Trained in combat, hand to hand,
Men who fight by night and day,
Courage take from the Green Beret.

Silver wings upon their chests,
These are men, America’s best,
Men who mean just what they say,
The brave men of the Green Beret.

Back at home a young wife waits,
Her Green Beret has met his fate,
He has died for those oppressed,
Leaving her this last request:

Put silver wings on my son’s chest,
Make him one of America’s best,
He’ll be a man they’ll test one day,
Have him win the Green Beret.

By Staff Sergeant Barry Sadler and Robin Moore

I reckon I’ll take it from here and give a little snipet of a song and see if anyone can get it.

“Difficult not to feel a little bit dissapointed and passed over”

Good Luck

Told ya! :slight_smile:

I have to admit I feel kinda special answering this question. It’s the first time I’ve got to answer a question and actually know the answer before anyone else :smiley:

You are totally correct Tiki…but i’ll have to think about your lyrics. Nothing is ringing a bell just yet…hmmmmmm.

Not trying to ring my own bell here or anything but I don’t expect someone to get the song from my lyrics given. If someone gets it before I wake up and get back on here in the morning I’ll be HIGHLY suprised. Until then good luck

Ok, figured it out.

“The Hollow”…and the artist is “aperfectcircle”.
Ok, my turn again
“I saw those blue lights flashing, over my left shoulder.
He walked right up and said, ‘Get off that riding mower.’”

See if you all can figure out THAT one.

Obviously I doubted the ablitiy of this mere mortal. Time for me to do some thinking and get midevil on some ass.

Actually the song title is Libra but it is by A Perfect Circle so I’ll let it slide

Actually, it’s “3 Libras,” but I ain’t one to pick nits, so I won’t say anything.

I have no idea what Conti’s is, but it’s causing a maddening little tickle in the Lyric Recognition area of my brain.

Here’s something to pass the time while we’re waiting for a better mind than mine to figure out Conti’s lyrics:

“History shouldn’t be a mystery
Our story’s real history
(Not HIS story)”

I’m stumped on Conti’s second one too.

But I think that the song you’re refering to Lux is Public Enemy’s Brothers Gonna Work It Out

Now can anybody tell me who this is?

Jeddy 3 is what we first called him/
Then it was Jed/
But Jed’s system’s dead/
Therefore so is Jed

Corvus, i believe your lyrics are from Jed the Humanoid…by Grandaddy.

Anybody figured mine out yet?

Why is this reminding me of the Zamboni song?

nope, not the Zamboni Song

I’m gonna bump this…and give it one more chance before i tell the answer.

Yup, you got it Conti.

Now tell us, what’s yours?

Mine is “A Honky-Tonk Song” by George Jones.

Ok, let’s try this again…if nobody gets it…i’m finished with this thread…lol. But we’ll try it one more time.

“and just the thought of never waking up with you again, always turns me inside out, how could we let it end?”
