80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread5

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Hello you lovely lot, thread 5 here we go!

Post a few lines from a song, 70s, 80s, 90s & let us guess the singer & the title.

A few more lyrics of mine

He came to town like a midwinter storm
He rode through the fields, so handsome and strong
His eyes was his tools and his smile was his gun
But all he had come for was having some fun

@BendandBreak Missing you (I aint missing you at all) ? don't know singer

Look over there (where) there goes Jeanie with her new boyfriend, she's married now or engaged or something so I'm told...

Joe Jackson - is she really going out with him?

I don't know that one @coffee

But you are right with Missing

Somebody will surely remember the singer

Missing you is John waite or waites.

Yes @corona, me and my hubby just love all his stuff

Yes John Wait @Devoilmum

Correct!

A love like ours is love that's hard to find
How could we let it slip away?
We've come too far to leave it all behind
How could we end it all this way?

@CoffeeBeansGalore - is that Horse with no name? Don McTell?

Well you started out with nothing,
And you're proud that you're a self made man,

1970s (lots of covers after though)

@CoffeeBeansGalore- is that Horse with no name? Don McTell?

No, sorry. Huge clue - line dancing 😁

@NeedToKnow101. Is that Chicago- if you leave me now?

@NeedToKnow101

I'm struggling but I'm hearing a thrashy heavy possibly American rock band...

I don't know, Whitesnake or something??

@coffee that’s Stuck in the middle with you. Don’t know who!

@CoffeeBeansGalore

@Honeyroar Apologies, not sure what happened there!

Yes, well done. Band was Stealers Wheel (had to google myself!)

Can’t believe nobody has got mine. We’ve done it on the first thread and it was guessed quickly (might’ve been other lines).

@Honeyroar

@CoffeeBeansGalore that’s Stuck in the middle with you. Don’t know who!

I do. Stealer's Wheel.

@NeedToKnow101. Is that Chicago- if you leave me now?
@Honeyroar - correct!

@CoffeeBeansGalore

NeedToKnow101 *@CoffeeBeansGalore*- is that Horse with no name? Don McTell?

No, sorry. Huge clue - line dancing 😁

It's Cotton Eye Joe isn't it? Line dancing a big clue

Funny World Sometimes lies Become the game when loves the prize

I think very early 90s

Nobody hit this one I posted earlier

I'll add to mine..

A child is born with no state of mind
Blind to the ways of mankind
God is smilin' on you but he's frownin' too
Because only God knows what you'll go through

@shinynewapple2020 Yes, Cotton eye Joe 😊

Katherine, here's one for you..

I used to think you were on my side
But now I'm no longer sure

80s

I came on to answer this one and found someone had answered it for me 🤣
