If you have song lyrics that name check celebrities for a song use the below form to send it in. No sexually explicit entries. They will not be added.

I'm not talking about songs that just name someone (there's more than I could ever list). I'm referring to songs that name someone famous or well known. For instance the Beastie Boys "name check" Abe Vigoda in "Posse in Effect".

Donny Hathaway's, "And Then There's Maude (Theme from 'Maude')"
The Lyrics:
Lady Godiva was a freedom rider
She didnt' care if the whole world looked
Joan of Arc with the Lord to guide her
She was a sister who really cooked.

Isadora was the first bra burner
And you're glad she showed up. (Oh yeah)
And when the country was falling apart
Betsy Ross got it all sewed up.
Who They Mention:
Lady Godiva, Joan of Arc, Isadora Duncan (the dancer), and Betsy Ross.
