Help me find this song

[Ripper]

There was a song from the 1970's that im trying to find out who sang it, and what the name of the song is... It was a woman singing.

I even e-mailed 1050 CHUM. An oldies radio station here in Toronto. Nope, they cant help me in my quest.

Youre up fellas! ;D

Heres the lyrics...as best as I can remember them. Yes, its kinda girly.


" A little man was hungry/ but they saw him as a tramp/ with a lovenote in his pocket/ but no money for a stamp/ he just sits there in the doorway/ and he sings his lonely song
Chorus
He was me/ he was you/ maybe someone that you knew/ there goes everybodys brother/ whats his name/ walk on by/ pay no mind/ these things happen all the time/ but aint it cold enough today/ so let it rain.

Thats some of it my brothers. Ring any bells?

deep,

........... Ring any bells?

Nope, not even any little chimes.

If you don't get any satisfaction here, then try this site:

www.allthelyrics.com/

Their forums aren't too bad, though some of it was overly simple, IMO.

Good luck.

deep,

A little birdie just whispered in my ear that your mystery song and band might be "He was me, He was you / Child of Mine" by The Bells. They were a Canadian band out of Montreal in the 70's.


Don't ask me, I just listen to what the voices tell me! ;D

I've had some good luck with www.allthelyrics.com for finding songs that were stuck in my head but I couldn't remember where I heard them. There are some other song-finder sites out there, too. I think allthelyrics has some links on their site. Check it out and see if they can help.
