ecb3,

# # # # # # # # #Iron Curtain
# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
There's an iron curtain darlin between your heart and mine
# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
and it seems it's getting stronger all the time
# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
you don't want me you don't need me but I'll keep on

hanging round
# # # #
and I know some day my love will tear this iron curtain
#
down

# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
Don't be afraid to love me for I swear that it will last
# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
Darlin is it fair to judge me by someone in your past
# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
You don't want me you don't need me but I'll keep on

hanging round
# # ## # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
And I know some day my love will tear this iron curtain down

## # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
Someone hurt you in the past dear and their memory lingers

on
# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
But to live your life in darkness is a shame If you'd only
# # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
let me love you soon your heartache will be gone let my
# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
lovein arms become your iron curtain from now on

Hey imapickin'... who - besides/before the JMB - recorded this song?? - I've been rackin' my brain??## - I'm sure someone else did it but can't remember who - good song & I remember the melody but not the artist(s). This question is interferrin' with my concentration on WORK(i.e. "day job"). Thanks, Moose.

Moose,
Was it Flatt and Scruggs?

[Moose]

Don't think so.., but thanks for the help. Now..., that'll "bug me' all evening 'till I can recall who else did it!!## - I'll post if the answer "miraculously" comes to me. I'll also make some phone calls..!!??## - Oh, the frustration.. -Thanks for the shot(maybe it WAS F&S!!).

It was Flatt and Scruggs.

[Moose]

Yep, I think now, it was. Thanks for the interest and responses. Funny ain't it.., how a long-forgotten song will "bug you" 'till you remember the artist(s), melody, and sometimes the record label... "we few, we happy few." MOOSE.
