Here's mine:

Cat Scratch Fever - Ted Nugent

Well I don't know where they come from but they sure do come
I hope they comin' for me
And I don't know how they do it but they sure do it good
I hope there doin' it for free

They give me cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever

well the first time that I got it I was just ten years old
I got it from some kitty next door
an I went to see the doctor and he gave me the cure
I think I got it some more

They give me cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever
I got a bad scratch fever
The cat scratch fever

It's nothin dangerous
I feel no pain
I've got to cha-cha change
You know you got it when you? you going insane
It makes a grown man cry cry ?oh won't you make my bed

well I make the pussy purr with the stroke of my hand
They know they gettin' it from me
They know just where to go when they need their lovin man
They know I'm doin? it for free

They give me cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever
They gotta bad scratch fever
The cat scratch fever

Ah, more lyrics to add to the database. I always like that.

Here's my 70's contribution:

Eagles - Hotel California

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
this could be heaven or this could be hell
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...

Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is tiffany-twisted, she got the mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the captain,
please bring me my wine
He said, we havent had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...

Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin it up at the hotel california
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said we are all just prisoners here, of our own device
And in the masters chambers,
They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just cant kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
relax, said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
But you can never leave!

And one from me....

April Wine - Slow Poke
Stand Back (1975)


I got somethin' to keep you satisfied
So won't you excuse me while I slip inside
I ain't gonna rush things, you know I ain't no speed freak
'Cause I like to take my time whenever I eat
'Cause I'm just a slow poke, uh-huh, with long strokes
Said I'm just a slow poke baby, I like to take my time
Poke on

I'd like to see you with the lights turned down
And I'd like to see you when you go down
And I'm gonna be there, right by your side
I'm just gonna hang on when you take me for a ride
So how 'bout a slow poke, uh-huh, with long strokes
Said how 'bout a slow poke baby, I like to take my time
Alright

I'd like to poke you right here on the floor
I ain't gonna stop none until I hear you call for more
And I'm gonna tease you until you're ready to scream
Then I'm gonna please you, it's gonna seem like a dream
So how 'bout a slow poke, uh-huh, with long strokes
Said how 'bout a slow poke baby, I like to take my time
Poke on

mmmm, feels good, you sweet thing
