"Don't Look Back"

Had a GREAT time at  BOSTON & guest FOGHAT concert!

Held at Champion Square outside the New Orleans Saints Superdome (which is where this awesome sign came from), the crowds enthusiasm was not dampened at all from a downpour that started just as Boston began.

It is funny how the lyrics we listed to in the 70s seem to be written for us now...

if you are not familiar with songs of Boston or Foghat, here are a few of their more popular:

Boston:

"Don't Look Back"

Don't look back

A new day is breakin'

It's been too long since I felt this way

I don't mind where I get taken

The road is callin'

Today is the day

I can see

It took so long to realize

I'm much too strong

Not to comprimise

Now I see what I am is holding me down

I'll turn it around

I finally see the dawn arrivin'

I see beyond the road I'm drivin'

Far away and left behind

It's a new horizon and I'm awakin' now

Oh I see myself in a brand new way

The sun is shinin'

the clouds are breakin'

'Canse I can't lose now, there's no game to play

I can tell

There's no more time left to criticize

I've seen what I could not recognize

Everthing in my life was leading me on

but I can be strong

I finally see the dawn arrivin'

I see beyond the road I'm drivin'

Far away and left behind

"Peace Of Mind"

Now if you're feelin' kinda low 'bout the dues you've been paying

Future's coming much too slow

And you wanna run but somehow you just keep on stayin'

Can't decide on which way to go

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I understand about indecision

But I don't care if I get behind

People livin' in competition

All I want is to have my peace of mind.

Now you're climbin' to the top of the company ladder

Hope it doesn't take too long

Can'tcha you see there'll come a day when it won't matter

Come a day when you'll be gone

I understand about indecision

But I don't care if I get behind

People li vin' in competition

All I want is to have my peace of mind.

Take a look ahead, take a look ahead, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

Foghat:

"I Just Want To Make Love To You"

(originally by Muddy Waters)

I don't want you, cook my bread

I don't want you, make my bed

I don't want your money, too

I just wanna make love to you

I don't want you, be no slave

I don't want you, work all day

I don't want you to be sad and blue

I just wanna make love to you

I can tell by the way that you baby talk

I can see by the way that you switch and walk

I can tell by the way that you treat your man

But I could love you, baby, it's a cryin' shame

I don't want you, wash my clothes

I don't want you, keep a home

I don't want you to be true

I just wanna make love to you

I don't want you, be no slave

I don't want you, work all day

I don't want you to be true

I just wanna make love to you

I don't want you, keep a home

I don't want you, wash my clothes

I don't want you to be true

I just wanna make love

FOGHAT.  While the concert was scheduled to start at 8 pm, the band started at 7:30..
