Musical monday #31

As with Musical Monday #28, this is a joint production between Elie's Expositions and me. Because we enjoy it, we're going to try to get together once a month or so for these cooperative projects.

As always no Googling allowed. Figure out the names of the songs from these snippets of lyrics and then the overall theme. Good Luck and have fun.

1) It turns by day and then by night
2) I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
3) Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend
4)'Take these sunken eyes and learn to see'
5) I was feeling kinda seasick but the crowd called out for more
6) Hey little sister who's your superman?
7) ... tired starlings
8) Someone else will hold my dreams
9) Catfish are jumpin', That paddle wheel thumpin'
10) She's trying to make a devil out of me
11) And the ones that mother gives you don't do anything at all
22)'I can't choose; it's too much to lose'
12) Me and my old pappy had a hand in a still
13) 'Don't like no Hollywood movie star'
14) 'When I was a young man, I had to kick and scratch and claw'
15) Today's edition is gonna catch your attention
16) In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes
17) There's a stain on my notebook
18) Eyes that shine burning red
19) 'Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list.'
20) Well then suddenly we heard the sirens
21)'And though it's only a whim, she thinks of him'
23)'With nothing to do but feed all the kangaroos'
And this last one sort of fits:
24) Side by side on my piano keyboard
