Handwritten Lyrics for Auction

[lbfan]

From the website:

http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/101980

"Lot of four (4) 4 x 6 note sheets, written in the distinct handwriting of famed Fleetwood Mac guitarist/songwriter Lindsey Buckingham, featuring numerous lines of song lyrics from off Fleetwood Mac's "Tusk" album. These were likely written out as working drafts of lyrics, some of which were eventually incorporated into his songs. Some scattered impressions and fold lines from handling, otherwise fine."

Me too!!!

BTW his handwriting looks an AWFUL lot like my own, so I should be able to translate most of it LOL, if anyone would like me to...I don't know about the faded part near the bottom but I'll try!

The last line of the last song there...that's VERY intersting... "If she'll marry me".....hmmmm?? ;)

good find!

the last one (home hunger)

i'm a bundle of joy
pocket full of pennies
got enough of both to last me thirty years

i know what i want
i know you've got it
i'm a sparrow slasher
under spell
if right girl don't get me down, the left one will (defensive is top word)

got a pretty little girl
askin me to tea
gonna ask my baby
if she'll marry me

[Michelle Daya]

third one

i never tried to tell you
guess i couldn't let it show
if you can hear me now
i want to let you know

second one

the last time i saw you
in the early morning rain
it was no more than a handshake
and i never saw you again

first three

send me my by mail
write me a line from time to time

lookin to live all by myself
acres and acres of land

i've lost my ground
i didn't know
