HI Team , well I just spent the last 7 hours e-mailing everyone I could find that had any links to this song! My fingers are about to fall off and I have gone crossed eyed from looking at the computer screen for 7 hrs. I even bribed a friend with homemade fresh Lasagna if he finds the lyrics for me! gtho4 I am not sure who said that but he was nuts!LOL LOL LOL! Thanks for the help! PF

Well get this. Not only will the fellow send you the words as soon as we can give him instructions to make a MP3 file from a CD, it turns out he is a Radio Disk Jockey and he is going to play the song for you on the radio!

include "LYDIA PURPLE" during this weeks show. LYDIA PURPLE will be playing

Take care, this is WG of W.G.'s Rockhouse

This site never ceases to amaze me. PF I don't know how to make a MP3 File but if someone does, I will pass the instructions on to him.

TJ: WOW O WOW O WOW! I don't know how to create a MP3 file either but I am sure someone out there in FT land will know how! Please e-mail him for me and tell him he has my gratitude and send him a big thank you for me please! YOU FT DREAM TEAM ARE THE BEST! I send a big Hug to each of you ! Thank you so much! PF

LYDIA PURPLE

Lydia Purple lives in a steeple
Talks about nature colored by people

Lydia Purple was Taken for granted
By People that knew her whose views
were all slanted

Writing for a daily drinking apple tea
Lydia Pretending she is free
Living a lonely a view from her Window
She Keeps to herself
And Peeks through her Keyhole

At the end of her first year her walls
were all painted
She wrote to her lover who never existed

Writing for a daily,drinking apple tea
Lydia prentending she is free

Singing softly, she can't tell time
She's adjourned by the land she sees

By the close of her third year,she talked
To her Mirror
And the questions were clever, The words
were much clearer

Lydia Purple lives in a steeple
Talks about nature colored by people

Thank the Gods that's over! The FunTrivia Action Team bows to nothing, but I have to admit, this one was getting us a little bent over. Texas Joe strikes again! I had faith that someone here would eventually come up with something.

gtho4: I know what you mean, George. My local music purveyors likely have me pegged as a kook-a-boo by now. No one under 35 ever heard of it. Must have been a real hit! I don't remember either the song OR the group, and I was certainly in on the latest music back in the 60's.

OK, PF?

praise the lord
heya! pf, the lyrics have finally been posted in FT .. put that one down to Texas

hey GS, so you got strange looks too, from these youngsters behind the counters at those shops .. they'd thought a Rip Van Winkle woke up and dropped in!

Dear Gunslinger & gtho4; Thank you both from the bottom of my heart! I am sorry that people now think you have slipped a few cogs!I know it wasn't a huge hit but it means something to me that you would go to all of that trouble for me! I will forever be in your debt! You guys are the best,most kind generous, considerate & humourous people that I know and I consider it a honor to know you ! Big hugs to both of you! As for TexasJoe I will never be able to repay him for the kindest he has shown me and for the huge effort he went to on my behalf! Boy what a Dream Team! I thank TJ from the bottom of my heart also and I remain a fan! The three of you are a very rare species these days called "GENTLEMEN" and this lady is more than thrilled that you came to her rescue! I just wish there was someway that I could play the song for you! I am sure you are all curious as to what it sounds like yes! LOL! Mission accomplished,case closed! All hailing frequencies closed!
Thank you again! You have made a Little Purple Person very happy! As I write this I am listening to the Song! PF

Not to worry, PF; everyone knows I follow the beat of my own drummer, anyway. I've always been bored with doing things the 'conventional' way. More fun to be 'eccentric.'

Actually, it was fun, in a way, responding to a challenge that frustrating. Sort of like finding a cure for athlete's foot when you can't stop scratching.

Good luck. And play that song A LOT!!
