    I've been racking my brain over this.

    I don't want a "death metal" song moes, but there has to be a good song with Shannon in the name.

    I'm assuming finalsbound might know...

    Or anyone else, for that matter.

    Shannon, you don't have to put on the red light
    Those days are over
    You don't have to sell your body to the night
    Shannon, you don't have to wear that dress tonight
    Walk the streets for money
    You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

    Shannon, you don't have to put on the red light
    Shannon, you don't have to put on the red light
    Put on the red light, put on the red light
    Put on the red light, put on the red light
    Put on the red light, oh

    I loved you since I knew ya
    I wouldn't talk down to ya
    I have to tell you just how I feel
    I won't share you with another boy
    I know my mind is made up
    So put away your make up
    Told you once I won't tell you again it's a bad way

    Shannon, you don't have to put on the red light
    Shannon, you don't have to put on the red light
    You don't have to put on the red light
    Put on the red light, put on the red light

    Counting Crows ?

    River Shannon

    Oh Shannon
    I might be dreaming
    The stars fell down on the factory
    The cathedrals repeating, the light receding
    Bells on another day
    Have you ever seen my face
    fast asleep and dreaming?
    Oh Shannon
    The lightning fell
    There's an army down by the riverside
    But I might be dreaming
    I can see that you don't believe me
    And I might be dreaming
    If I dip into your water
    Fall through my reflection
    I will shadow myself anyway
    Have you ever seen my face
    fast asleep and dreaming?
    And it don't seem right
    That I don't get no sleep at night
    What's the river gonna know about leaving?
    Oh Shannon
    The soldiers are coming
    The guns are drumming the night away
    Rain, rain go away
    Come again some other day
    When I got time for believing
    Have you ever seen my face
    fast asleep and dreaming?
    Yeah! What is there left to believe in?
    Oh Shannon
    I might be dreaming
    I might be wasting my life away
    listening to you
    Down under the streetlight
    you shudder and beat
    the edge of the waterway
    And I know if I had time
    I might dive in your water
    Lie right down in the evening rain
    I just want this pain, pain to go away
    Come again some other day
    When I got time for bleeding
    Have you ever seen my face
    fast asleep and dreaming?
    And it don't seem right that I don't get no sleep at night
    What's the river gonna know about leaving?
    Oh Shannon
    I might be dreaming

    I'm fairly sure those aren't the original lyrics...

    A good "Shannon" song..



    well.. here's one..




    "Runaway"
    by:
    Del Shannon


    As I walk along I wonder
    What went wrong with our love
    A love we felt so strong

    And as I still walk on
    I think of
    The Things we've done together
    While our hearts were young

    I'm walking in the rain
    Tears are falling
    And I feel the pain
    Wishing you were here by me
    To end This Misery.

    And I wonder
    I- wo-wo-wo-wo-wonder
    Why- Wa-wa-wa-wa-why
    She ran away
    And I wonder
    Where she will stay
    My little Runaway

    A-run-run-run-run- runaway
    A-run-run-run-run- runaway
    A-run-run-run-run- runaway

    You should've been gone
    Knowing how I made you feel
    And I should've been gone
    After all your words of steel
    Oh I must've been a dreamer
    And I must've been someone else
    And We should've been over

    Oh Sherrie, our love
    Holds on, holds on
    Oh Sherrie, our love
    Holds on, holds on

    But I don't want to let you go
    You'll go on hurting me
    You'll be better off alone
    If I'm not who you thought I'd be
    But you know there's a fever
    Oh that you'll never find nowhere else
    Can't you feel it burnin' on and on

    Oh Sherrie, our love
    Holds on, holds on
    Oh Sherrie, our love
    Holds on, holds on

    But I should've been gone
    Long ago, and far away
    And you should've been gone
    Now I know just why you stay

    Oh Sherrie, our love
    Holds on, holds on
    Oh Sherrie, our love
    Holds on, holds on
    Oh Sherrie, our love
    Holds on, holds on


    I swear to G, when I got here from MEXICO, my uncles and brothers used to sing this, and I would sing: "Oh, Shannon... our love..." :eek:

    Talk to me
    Tell me your name
    You blow me off like it's all the same
    You lit a fuse and now I'm ticking away
    Like a bomb
    Yeah, Baby
    Talk to me
    Tell me your sign
    You're switching sides like a Gemini
    You're playing games and now you're hittin' my heartLike a drum
    Yeah, Baby
    Well if Lady Luck gets on my side
    We're gonna rock this town alive
    I'll let her rough me up
    Till she knocks me out
    She walks like she talks,
    And she talks like she walks

    And Shannon, Shannon
    Oh baby
    When she moves, she moves
    I go crazy'Cause she looks like a flower but she stings
    like a bee
    Like every girl in history
    Shannon, Shannon
    I'm wasted by the way she moves
    No one ever looked so fine
    She reminds me that a woman only only got one thing on her mind

    I remember all my life
    Raining down as cold as ice
    A shadow of a man
    A face through a window
    Crying in the night
    The night goes into

    Morning, just another day
    Happy people pass my way
    Looking in their eyes
    I see a memory
    I never realized
    you made me so happy, oh Shannon

    Well you came and you gave without taking
    but I sent you away, oh Shannon
    well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
    I need you today, oh Shannon

    I'm standing on the edge of time
    I Walked away when love was mine
    Caught up in a world of uphill climbing
    The tears are in my mind
    And nothing is rhyming, oh Shannon

    Well you came and you gave without taking
    but I sent you away, oh Shannon
    well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
    And I need you today, oh Shannon

    Yesterday's a dream I face the morning
    Crying on the breeze
    the pain is calling, oh Shannon

    Well you came and you gave without taking
    but I sent you away, oh Shannon
    well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
    And I need you today, oh Shannon

    Banana-fana fo-fannon
    Fee-fi-mo-mannon
    Shannon!

    Come on everybody!
    I say now let's play a game
    I betcha I can make a rhyme out of anybody's name
    The first letter of the name, I treat it like it wasn't there
    But a B or an F or an M will appear
    And then I say bo add a B then I say the name and Bonana fanna and a fo
    And then I say the name again with an F very plain
    and a fee fy and a mo
    And then I say the name again with an M this time
    and there isn't any name that I can't rhyme

    Fatty!
    Fatty, Fatty, bo-batty
    Banana-fana fo-atty
    Fee-fi-mo-matty
    Fatty!

    Jack Straw by The Grateful Dead.......

    We can share the women, we can share the wine.
    We can share what we got of yours cause we done shared all of mine.
    Keep on rollin, just a mile to go;
    Keep on rollin my old buddy, youre movin much too slow.

    I just jumped the watchman, right outside the fence.
    Took his rings, four bucks in change, aint that heaven sent?
    Hurts my ears to listen, Shannon, burns my eyes to see;
    You cut down a man in cold blood, Shannon, might as well been me.

    We used to play for silver, now we play for life;
    And ones for sport and ones for blood at the point of a knife.
    And now the die is shaken, now the die must fall.
    There aint a winner in the game, he dont go home with all.
    Not with all.

    Leavin texas, fourth day of july,
    Sun so hot, the clouds so low, the eagles filled the sky.
    Catch the detroit lightnin out of sante fe,
    The great northern out of cheyenne, from sea to shining sea.

    Gotta go to tulsa, first train we can ride.
    Gotta settle one old score, one small point of pride.
    There aint a place a man can hide, Shannon will keep him from the sun
    Aint a bed can give us rest now, you keep us on the run.

    Jack straw from wichita cut his buddy down,
    And dug for him a shallow grave and laid his body down.
    Half a mile from tucson, by the morning light,
    One man gone and another to go, my old buddy youre moving much too slow.

    We can share the women, we can share the wine.
