Re: Help with OHIO lyrics

[blite young <emilyold at yahoo_com>]

hi trudes,

 

its idiot em here, i cant help out with that question but i can now maybe sing the correct words, ive been singing

"when the sun went down we would all leave town

and light our fires on the egypt border"

 

do you ever think you know the words of a song and sing them and know it makes no scence, but you still sing to what you thought it was, then once you get the proper lyrics you still seem to have your own version in your head, well i do but thats idiot emily for you lol!
