songs that have the word 'red' in the title --post 'em here
I'll start ~ Panama Red

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84wjPhkO5V0

Panama Red
Panama Red, Panama Red
He'll steal your woman then he'll rob your head
Panama Red, Panama Red
On his wild horse Mescalito He come breezing though town
I bet your woman's up in bed with ol'Panama Red

The judge don't know when red' in town
He keeps well hidden underground
But everybody's acting lazy
Falling out and hanging round
Well, my woman said, hey Pedro
You acting crazy like a clown
nobody feels like working
Panama Red in back in town

Panama Red
Panama Red, Panama Red
He'll steal your woman then he'll rob your head
Panama Red, Panama Red
On his wild horse Mescalito He come breezing though town
I bet your woman's up in bed with ol'Panama Red

Everybody's looking out for him
Cause they know Red satisfies
Little girls love to listen to him
Sing and tell sweet lies
If ever things get too confusing, honey
We're better off in bed
And I'll be searching all the joints in town for Panama Red


Panama Red
Panama Red, Panama Red
He'll steal your woman then he'll rob your head
Panama Red, Panama Red
On his wild horse Mescalito He come breezing though town
I bet your woman's up in bed with ol'Panama Red

7. Not the Red Baron - Tori Amos
solmn.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k16ha1lo5Yk

Not the Red Baron
Not Charlie Brown
Think I got the message figured
Another pilot down
And are their devils with halos in beautiful capes
Taking them into the flames?
Taking them into the flames

Not Judy G
Not Jean, Jean, Jean with a hallowed heart
I see that screen go down in the flames
With every step, with every beautiful heel pointed

Not the Red Baron, I'm sure
Not Charlie's wonderful dog
Not anyone I really know
Just another pilot down
Maybe I'll just sing him a last little sound
Many there know some girls with red ribbons
The prettiest red ribbons

:hi:

8. red sails and red money
red money:

Oh, can you feel it in the way
That a man is not a man?
Can you see it in the sky
That the landscape is too high?

Like a nervous disease
And it's been there all along
It will tumble from the sky
It's been there all along

Project cancelled
Tumbling central
Red Money

CHORUS
Can you hear it fall
Can you hear it well
Can you hear it at all

I was really feeling good
Reet Petite and how d'ya do
Then I got the small red box
And I didn't know what to do
'Cause my fingers could not grope
And I could not give it away
And I knew I must not drop it
Stop it, take it away

Project cancelled
Tumbling central
Red Money

CHORUS

Project cancelled
Tumbling central
Red Money

CHORUS

Can you hear it at all
Can you hear it at all

Red Money (four times)

Such responsibility
It's up to you and me


red sails

Feel a bit roughed up, feel a bit frightened
Nearly pin it down some time
Red sail action wake up in the wrong town
Boy, I really get around

Thunder ocean
Thunder ocean
Red sails take me, make me sail along

Red sails, and a mast so tall
Red sails
Red sails

Do you remember we another person
Green and black and red and so scared
Graffiti on the wall kept us all in tune
Bringing us all back home

Red sails
Thunder ocean
Red sails
Sailor can't dance like you, ooh, yooou

Ahh, red sail
Red sail action
Red sail
Some reaction

Action boy seen living under neon
Struggle with a foreign tongue
Red sails make him strong
Action make him sail along
Life stands still and stares

The hinterland, the hinterland
We're gonna sail to the hinterland
And it's far far, far far far, far far far away
Its a far far, far far far, fa da, da da da
1
2
3-4
Ooooooo

13. red dirt girl~emmylou harris
Edited on Sun May-27-07 12:33 PM by wildhorses
Me and my best friend Lillian
And her blue tick hound dog Gideon,
Sittin on the front porch cooling in the shade
Singin every song the radio played
Waitin for the Alabama sun to go down
Two red dirt girls in a red dirt town
Me and Lillian
Just across the line and a little southeast of Meridian.

She loved her brother I remember back when
He was fixin up a '49 Indian
He told her 'Little sister, gonna ride the wind
Up around the moon and back again"
He never got farther than Vietnam,
I was standin there with her when the telegram come
For Lillian.
Now he's lyin somewhere about a million miles from Meridian.

She said there's not much hope for a red dirt girl
Somewhere out there is a great big world
Thats where I'm bound
And the stars might fall on Alabama
But one of these days I'm gonna swing
My hammer down
Away from this red dirt town
I'm gonna make a joyful sound

She grew up tall and she grew up thin
Buried that old dog Gideon
By a crepe myrtle bush in the back of the yard,
Her daddy turned mean and her mama leaned hard
Got in trouble with a boy from town
Figured that she might as well settle down
So she dug right in
Across a red dirt line just a little south east from Meridian

She tried hard to love him but it never did take
It was just another way for the heart to break
So she dug right in.
But one thing they don't tell you about the blues
When you got em
You keep on falling cause there ain't no bottom
There ain't know end.
At least not for Lillian

Nobody knows when she started her skid,
She was only 27 and she had five kids.
Coulda' been the whiskey,
Coulda been the pills,
Coulda been the dream she was trying to kill.
But there won't be a mention in the news of the world
About the life and the death of a red dirt girl
Names Lillian
Who never got any farther across the line than Meridian.

Now the stars still fall on Alabama
Tonight she finally laid
That hammer down
Without a sound
In the red dirt ground

14. snoopy vs the red baron

SNOOPY VERSUS THE RED BARON
Recorded by The Royal Guardsmen
Words and music by P. Gernhard and D. Holler

After the turn of the century
In the clear blue skies over Germany
Came a roar and a thunder men had Nev- er heard
Lke the screamin' sound of a big war bird.

Up in the sky, a man in a plane
Baron von Richthoven was his name
Eighty men tried and eighty men died
Now they're buried together on the country side.


Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty and more
The bloody Red Baron was rollin' up the score
Eighty men died tryin' to end that spree
Of the bloody Red Baron of Germany.

In the nick of time a hero arose
A funny lookin' dog with a big black nose
He flew into the sky to seek revenge
But the Baron shot him down - foiled again.


Now Snoopy'd swore that he'd get that man
So he asked the great pumpkin for a new battle plan
He challenged the German to a real dog fight
While the Baron was laughing he got him in his sight.

The bloody Red Baron was in a fix
He tried everything, but he'd run out of tricks
Snoopy fired once then he fired twice
And the bloody Red Baron was spinnin' out of sight.

15. Well you took my original one
But here's another one: "Up Against the Wall, Redneck Mother", a little ditty I heard many years ago by Jerry Jeff Walker. Pretty funny too. Here is a sample of the lyrics,
"Well it's up against the wall redneck mother
Mother who has raised her son so well
Sittin' in a honky tonk drinkin' another
Kickin' hippies asses and raisin' hell."
If you ever heard of Jerry Jeff Walker, you'd know he meant it as satire and not to be mean. Also, I'm not 100 pct. sure of the words, but those are close.

17. Red Rain by Peter Gabriel
Red rain is coming down
Red rain
Red rain is pouring down
Pouring down all over me

I am standing up at the waters edge in my dream
I cannot make a single sound as you scream
It cant be that cold, the ground is still warm to touch
This place is so quiet, sensing that storm

Red rain is coming down
Red rain
Red rain is pouring down
Pouring down all over me

Well Ive seen them buried in a sheltered place in this town
They tell you that this rain can sting, and look down
There is no blood around see no sign of pain
Hay ay ay no pain
Seeing no red at all, see no rain

Red rain is coming down
Red rain
Red rain is pouring down
Pouring down all over me

Red rain-
Putting the pressure on much harder now
To return again and again
Just let the red rain splash you
Let the rain fall on your skin
I come to you defences down
With the trust of a child

Red rain is coming down
Red rain
Red rain is pouring down
Pouring down all over me
And I cant watch any more
No more denial
Its so hard to lay down in all of this
Red rain is coming down
Red rain is pouring down
Red rain is coming down all over me
I see it
Red rain is coming down
Red rain is pouring down
Red rain is coming down all over me
Im bathing in it
Red rain coming down
Red rain is coming down
Red rain is coming down all over me
Im begging you
Red rain coming down
Red rain coming down
Red rain coming down
Red rain coming down
Over me in the red red sea
Over me
Over me
Red rain

Red Rubber Ball
by Cyrkle


I should have known you'd bid me farewell
There's a lesson to be learned from this and I learned it very well
Now, I know you're not the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me

And I think it's gonna be alright
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

24. Touch of Red -- In Flames
Reaching depths of clarity
I'm not supposed to be like this
I should be on the top of the world
Is anybode out there like me?

I followed - something's missing
Self control - forcing me down
Whispers consume the air
Above her I'm endless

When the rain comes falling
I'll freeze, I'm so afraid
When things start to flood me
I'll drown in seconds

Fear - there's a way out
Touch of red
Break away
Nothing has it all
Bury the place I've been
I fear there's a way out

As if I ever had a choice
All in the hands of the energy
Once again I feel the quicksand
Swallow me, tonight I won't struggle

The weak in me should know
I'm as sober as I could be
Swallow me, tonight I won't struggle

The weak in me should know
I'm as sober as I could be

27. 'Artificial Red' -Mad Season
Edited on Sun May-27-07 02:35 PM by Ariana Celeste
Artificial red, smoke, poison consumed
In the House of Ill Repute
Is this the way I spend my days
In recovery of a fatal disease?

Oooh... Oooh...
Oooh... Oooh...

On a cloud of pink has turned to grey
And I'm alone again, yeah
Someone to hold against my own
Alone, untouched is what I crave

Oooh... Oooh...
Oooh... Oooh...

Artificial red, smoke, poison consumed
In the House of Ill Repute
Is this the place I search for love
When my need is within me, a gift from above?

Oooh... Oooh...
Oooh... Oooh...

28. Little Red Rooster
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day

Keep everything in the farm yard upset in every way

The dogs begin to bark and hounds begin to howl
Dogs begin to bark and hounds begin to howl
Watch out strange cat people
Little red rooster's on the prowl

If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
Ain't had no peace in the farm yard
Since my little red rooster's been gone

29. The Red and the Black by Blue Oyster Cult
I just love this stanza

Hornswoop me bungo pony on dogsled on ice
Make a dash for freedom baby
Don't skate on polar ice
It's too think to be sliced
By the light
Of long and white polar nights
