Okay, I'll retire this open challenge.

The song was "I've Been Everywhere" by Hank Snow. A real toe-tappin' song.

-Ray.

'I've been everywhere' (Hank Snow & Johnny Cash)

"Here I stand with head in hand."

"You've got to hide your love away" - Beatles.


"Still don't know what I was waiting for..."

Don't know dfm65's answer.

Possible answer to ShallowBlue would be "Changes," which I think was by David Bowie.

Here is a lyric I thought was being sung when I was young and it was on the radio, but it turns out I didn't have it quite right:

"She's got electric boobs and mohair pubes."

benny & the jets : elton John, strange hearing we have for those mistaken lyrics
now mine:it was the third of september

Nyxie is correct on the Elton song.

If Nyxie had said, "It was the third of June," the song would be "Ode to Billie Joe." But given that the month is September, I don't know what Nyxie's song is.

something by Simon & Garfunkel?

no, it's not a simon and garfunkel song

It just came to me after repeating it over and over in my head!

"It was the third of September... a date I'll always remember..."

The song is "Papa Was A Rolling Stone" by whichever artist that has covered the song during the past few decades. I am partial to the Temptations' version.

My turn:

"Because I Can't Stop Messin' With The Danger Zone"

-Ray.
