Re: Your favourite line from a song is
I was a little too tall,could’ve used a few pounds
Tight pants points,hardly renowned
She was a black haired beauty with big dark eyes
And points of her own,sittin’ way up high
Way up firm and high
Out past the cornfields where the woods got heavy
Out in the back seat of my’60 Chevy
Workin’ on mysteries without any clues
We weren’t in love,oh no,far from it
We weren’t searchin’ for some pie in the sky summit
We were just young and restless and bored
Livin’ by the sword
And we’d steal away every chance we could
To the back room to the alley or the trusty woods
I used her,She used me but neither one cared
We were getting’ our share
Workin’ on our night moves
Trying’ to lose the awkward teenage blues
Workin’ on our night moves
Mmm,and it was Summertime
Mmm,Sweet,Summertime,Summertime…

And they didn’t teach me that in school
It’s something that I learned on my own
That power is measured by the pound or the fist
It’s as clear as this
I’ve got a pocket full of pretty green

William Zanzinger killed poor Hattie Carroll
With a cane that he twirled around his diamond ringed finger
At a Baltimore Hotel society gathering
And the cops were called in and his weapon took from him
As they rode him in custody down to the station
And booked William Zanzinger for first degree murder

In the lazy water meadow I lay me down
All around me golden sun flakes covering the ground
Basking in the sunshine of a bygone afternoon
Bringing sounds of yesterday into this city room

Kris Kristofferson : Somebody Nobody Knows
Down in the gutter
An old man is lying
Like something the world threw away
The late crowd is leaving
But none of them even
Takes time to look down
Where he lays
The old man is crying
And desperately trying
To wipe off the dirt from his clothes
He's one of those people
The world left behind
He's somebody nobody knows
Brilliant !!!

Bob Dylan, Positively 4th Street:
I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
And just for that one moment I could be you
Yes, I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
You'd know what a drag it is to see you
I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
And just for that one moment I could be you
