seven77 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 This topic came out [pun intended! ] in chat last night. Gays have a lot of anthems, songs that are culturally associated with their community or that are popular within the drag community. Where are the lesbian songs, the ones that clearly about ladies or written from a lesbian or lady lovin' lady perspective? I'm a music nerd, so I've decided to do some digging. Today's Results: An oldie but a goodie, imho: I'm waiting for someone to cover this song. Pop, indie, alt rock...anything, anyone. Click "show me" to see some lyrics. They say I do it, ain’t nobody caught meSure got to prove it on me;Went out last night with a crowd of my friends,They must’ve been women, ‘cause I don’t like no men.It’s true I wear a collar and a tie,Makes the wind blow all the whileDon’t you say I do it, ain’t nobody caught meYou sure got to prove it on me.Say I do it, ain’t nobody caught meSure got to prove it on me.I went out last night with a crowd of my friends,It must’ve been women, ‘cause I don’t like no men.Wear my clothes just like a fanTalk to the gals just like any old manCause they say I do it, ain’t nobody caught meSure got to prove it on me. And this song, because, hey it is sweet. Not really my tastes, though. She says I smell like safety and homeI named both of her eyes “Forever” and “Please don’t go”I could be a morning sunrise all the time, all the time yeahThis could be good, this could be goodAnd I can’t change, even if I triedEven if I wanted toAnd I can’t change, even if I triedEven if I wanted toMy love, my love, my love, my loveShe keeps me warm, she keeps me warmWhat’s your middle name?Do you hate your job?Do you fall in love too easily?What’s your favorite word?You like kissing girls?Can I call you baby?Yeah, yeahShe says that people stare ‘cuz we look so good togetherYeah, yeah, yeahAnd I can’t change, even if I triedEven if I wanted toAnd I can’t change, even if I triedEven if I wanted toMy love, my love, my love, my loveShe keeps me warm, she keeps me warm [x2]I’m not crying on Sundays, I’m not crying on Sundays [x2]Love is patient, love is kind [x4]My love, my love, my love, my loveShe keeps me warm, she keeps me warm ---------- I'm sure I'll think of more or find more later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
