Music Tuesday #033: Sweet sixteen

The music you hear when you are 16 years old sticks to you for the rest of your life.  I started listening to music because of FM radio, there I discovered 80s pop music. Then an older friend of a friend got us into rock music.  I still remember the first time I heard Led Zeppelin, at that time almost 20 year old music, which blew my socks off.  So I got hooked on rock and it didn't stop there.  I discovered a lot of music in that period.  I also discovered earlier music when trying to find out where this music came from.  Around that time I listened to a radio programme called Domino, presented by Luc Janssen.  There I discovered MC5, which eventually allowed me to discover punk.  But that's another story. Today's songs are from classic rock's coming of age which for me is around 1969-1971:

Lyin', cheatin', hurtin, that's all you seem to do.
Messin' around with every guy in town,
Puttin' me down for thinkin' of someone new.
Always the same, playin' your game,
Drive me insane, trouble is gonna come to you,
One of these days and it won't be long,
You'll look for me but baby, I'll be gone.
This is all I gotta say to you woman:...
