What's your favorite lyric from a song?

kavakat1,

I hate to rain on your parade, but I believe those lyrics are from the song "Sam Stone" written by John Prine.

I could never change
Just what I feel
My face will never show
What is not real

Clean this mess up or we'll all end up in jail. The test tubes and the scale get it all out of here. Is there gas in the car? Yes, there's gas in the car. I think the people down the hall know who you are....

Steeley Dan " Kid Charlemagne"

"Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
I thought it was there for good so I never tried"

Haunting lyric from Famous Blue Raincoat by Leonard Cohen.

"...and you know that you're over the hill
when your mind makes a promise that your body can't fill...".  Little Feat - "Old Folks Boogie"

"...if you were a pill I'd take a handful at my will and knock you back with something sweet and strong...". The Replacements -  "Valentine"

..."they got rats on the west side, bed bugs uptown...". The Rolling Stones - "Shattered" 

...she was sharp as a razor, soft as a prayer..."
Tom Waits - "Bad Liver And A Broken Heart"

Just a few of the gems revisited during the weekend.

Next weekend?  Alice's Restaurant and The Last Waltz on infinite rotation for a day. 
Following day is Christmas tree hunting with a healthy dose of Vince Guaraldi's now timeless soundtrack in the background.  

Enjoy Thanksgiving, folks!
