On That Note: Steal Away

[KnappShack]

So put the sugar in the tank of the sheriff's car
We'll slash the deputy's tires
They won't get very far
When they finally get the word
That there's been a hold-up
So give you ID card to the border guard
Your alias says you got John Luke Picard
Of the united federation of planets
'Cause they won't speak English any ways

Stole the only girl I loved and drowned her deep inside of me

In the mornin' you go gunnin' for the man who stole your water

While the lyrics don't have the exact key words the song is about stealing car parts 1 piece at a time to build a Cadillac

Not sure how many regular OTN peeps know what I've been going through but I came home Super Bowl Sunday to the adult daughter of our neighbor in the process of robbing us. If you want more I posted about it in random thoughts thread.

Things have been very trying. I sat out of last week's OTN and debated taking a longer leave of absence but after some thought and post by @t-noah I realized that by stepping away I give her the power and while she's taken a lot from me I refuse to let this be one of them.

Now I'm a gallows humor type of person so as host this week when thinking of a topic, that part of me thought about a topic related to what I went through.

This topic was solely my idea so I want no flak directed at my OTN brothers regarding this topic being insensitive to me.

So this week the topic is songs where in the title or lyrics there are references to the following: steal, stolen, thief, rob/robbery.

"On That Note” is presented weekly by @MeanDean, @cyclones500 and myself.


Last Week: You Say You Want a Compilation

Yay! And thank you for being just who you are! That's what makes you unique and great.

Being who we are, and trying to grow and improve (not always easy), makes us all unique people, and good at who we are and what we should be. I think it's a lifetime journey. I know that I would greatly miss your input to CF. Thankyou for not letting others, and that woman who broke into your mom's house, control you.

Love and kindness will win out. Let it shine and it will outshine the bad.

I don't always participate in OTN threads, but always love it when I do! I will try to contribute to this one.

[Chorus]
You turned me inside out and you showed me
What life was about, only you
The only one that stole my heart away
And I wanna do all I can just to show you
Make you understand, only you
The only one that stole my heart away

Clarence Carter - "Slip Away"
Love, oh, love
How sweet it is
When you steal it, darling

No worries, "thief" is also part of the lyrics!

Great Johnny!

Well, the girl I love
I stole her from a friend
He got lucky, stole her back again
She heard he had a Mercury
Lord, she's crazy 'bout a Mercury
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury and cruise it up and down the road
Oh, let's go

Looking Glass, Brandy

The sailors say, "Brandy, you're a fine girl" (You're a fine girl)
What a good wife you would be (Such a fine girl)
Yeah your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea"

Lobo, Me and You and a Dog Named Boo

I can still recall
The wheat fields of St. Paul
And the morning we got caught robbing from an old hen
Old McDonald, he made us work
But then he paid us for what it was worth
Another tank of gas and back on the road again

 

[Cupped]

Paul McCartney & Wings, Magneto and Titanium Man

You were involved in a robbery
That was due to happen at a quarter to three
In the main street
