Could you nail any of these?

It was actually tough for me to think of some of these, so this little project has taken quite some time and  the trusty help of Google. I found some of the most pro-Buffalo songs out there. (Very slowly, but they were there). It was pretty cool to go through all genres of music finding songs that mean enough to an artist to mention the Queen City, let alone some who wrote an entire song about Buffalo.

Can you remember any of these songs that mention 'Buffalo' or reference Western New York in them? Can you add any more to the list?

    Van Morrison - Saint Dominic's Preview

    And it's a long way to Buffalo
    It's a long way to Belfast city too
    And I'm hoping the choice won't blow the hoist
    'Cause this town, they bit off more than they can chew.

    Grateful Dead - Truckin'

    Truckin', up to Buffalo. Been thinkin', you got to mellow slow
    Takes time, you pick a place to go, and just keep truckin' on

    Sittin' and starin' out of the hotel window
    Got a tip they're gonna kick the door in again

    The Church - Buffalo

    Snow came up Friday, I gotta go
    Spending winter up in Buffalo
    Someone I met there is calling me so
    Got to escape the blues man, don't you know

    John Fogerty --Rock And Roll Girls

    If I had my way, I'd shuffle off to Buffalo
    Sit by the lake and watch the world go by
    Ladies in the sun, listenin' to the radio
    Like flowers on the sand, the rainbow in my mind

    Tragically Hip--At The Hundredth Meridian

    At the hundredth meridian (trust me)
    Where the great plains begin
    I remember, I remember Buffalo
    And I remember Hengelo

    Rick James--Below The Funk

    I was born in a city we call Buffalo
    Zero degrees below is too damn cold and funky
    Mama raised me on the numbers racket
    With eight kids and no father
    Said she couldn't hack it

    Goo Goo Dolls--Broadway

    Broadway's dark tonight
    A little bit weaker than you used to be
    Broadway's dark tonight
    See the young man sittin' in the old man's bar
    Waitin' for his turn to die

    Bruce Spingsteen--Erie Canal

    We haul'd some barges in our day
    Filled with lumber, coal, and hay
    We know every inch of the way
    From Albany to Buffalo

    Low bridge, everybody down
    Low bridge, yeah we're coming to a town
    And you'll always know your neighbor
    And you'll always know your pal
    If ya ever navigated on the Erie Canal
