what's your favorite song lyric?
Dec 22, 2016, 11:29 AM
|
|
not what is the best ever for the masses, but which one speaks to you?
"Never better was my answer when you asked me how I'd been" from It Starts Where It Ends by Perpetual Groove is up there for me.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvXLfjXv-nA
I actually use this as my canned response when people say "how have you been?" little better than "living the dream" "doing fine, how bout you?"
So I ask you T-Net, what is your favorite lyric? If you feel like sharing a little background, cool.

from "Angel from Montgomery"
There's flies in the kitchen I can hear 'em there buzzing And I ain't done nothing since I woke up today. How the hell can a person go to work in the morning And come home in the evening and have nothing to say.

Hiatt "Icy Blue Heart"
Dec 22, 2016, 11:45 AM
|
|
I think John Hiatt has come up with some pretty good lyrics, this was just the first one that came to mind.
She came onto him like a slow movin' cold front His beer was warmer than the look in her eyes She sat on a stool, he said, "What do you want?" She said, "Give me a love that don't freeze up inside."
He said, "I have melted some hearts in my time dear But to sit next to you, Lord, I shiver and shake And if I knew love, well, I don't think I'd be here Asking myself if I've got what it takes."
To melt your icy blue heart Should I start? To turn what's been frozen for years Into a river of tears
"These days we all play cool, calm and collected Why, our lips could turn blue just shooting the breeze" But under the frost, well, he thought he detected A warm blush of red and a touch of her knee
He said, "Girl, you're a beauty like I've never witnessed And I've seen the Northern Lights dance in the air But I've felt the cold that can follow the first kiss And there's not enough heat in the fires burning there."
To melt your icy blue heart Should I start? To turn what's been frozen for years Into a river of tears

There is a bit of history in this one.

I pierced my ear when I was 17. Though I hadn't worn an earring in two decades one of my tween daughters noticed the scar and asked me. Shortly after that my 13 year old son pierced his ear.
His sisters and I sung this song to him for a couple weeks and he hasn't worn a ring since. We took the liberty of changing Georgie to Joshee.

or Bright Eyes. These two stick out.
"Murder In The City"
If I get murdered in the city Don't go revenging in my name One person dead from such is plenty No need to go get locked away When I leave your arms The things I think of No need to get over alarmed I'm coming home
I wonder which brother is better Which one our parents loved the most I sure did get in lots of trouble They seemed to let the other go A tear fell from my father's eye I wondered what my dad would say He said, "I love you and I'm proud of you both, In so many different ways"
If I get murdered in the city Go read the letter in my desk Don't bother with all my belongings Pay attention to the list Make sure my sister knows I love her Make sure my mother knows the same Always remember there was nothing worth sharing Like the love that let us share our name
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbW08aKDoQ4
"We Are Nowhere And It's Now"
If you hate the taste of wine Why do you drink it 'til you're blind? And if you swear that there's no truth and who cares How come you say it like you're right? Why are you scared to dream of god When it's salvation that you want? You see stars that clear have been dead for years But the idea just lives on
In our wheels that roll around As we move over the ground And all day it seems we've been in between the past and future town
We are nowhere, and it's now We are nowhere, and it's now You took a ten-minute dream in the passengers seat While the world it was flying by I haven't been gone very long But it feels like a lifetime
I've been sleeping so strange at night Side effects they don't advertise I've been sleeping so strange With a head full of pesticide
I got no plans and too much time I feel too restless to unwind I'm always lost in thought As I walk a block to my favourite neon sign Where the waitress looks concerned But she never says a word Just turns the jukebox on And we hum along And I smile back at her
And my friend comes after work When the features start to blur She says these bars are filled with things that kill By now you probably should have learned
Did you forget that yellow bird? How could you forget your yellow bird?
She took a small silver wreathe and pinned it onto me She said this one will bring you love I don't know if it's true but I keep it for good luck

And my life is but a coin, pulled from an empty pocket Dropped into a slot with dreams of sevens close behind Hope and fear go with it, and the moon and the sun go spinning Like the numbers and the fruits before our eyes Sometimes I hit, sometimes it robs me blind Sometimes I hit, sometimes it robs me blind

I'm not gonna dwell because something else will come to mind
Dec 22, 2016, 12:41 PM

first thought was Drive-By Truckers "Love Like This"......includes drinkin, fightin' and truelovin'.
Coming home with a bottle, trying not to break the seal. This Friday evening traffic's about enough to break a man's will. And I can't wait to see you and see how your week has gone, And tear into Old No.7 and make love till dawn.
But your Mama she'll be calling, if she ain't knocking on the door. And it won't take me long to remember what I brought that bottle home for.
And we'll all get to fighting, just like we always do. And by Saturday morning, I'll be singing these blues.
(Chorus) Last night I slept with my boots on again, One cut on my forehead and one my chin, On the hard old floor with nothin' to cover up with. You got me real good, girl, and I must admit, You pack purty mean punch for such a pretty little dish. And it's a shame to know most folks don't ever know love like this.
Come Monday morning, I'll be sore to fare-thee-well. Cussin' God and America, wishing them both just to send me off to hell. But the boss man don't want no excuses when it comes time to get on the clock. And without that paycheck, I'd lose the rest of what sweet love I got.
repeat chorus

Lil Wayne in "No Love" with Eminem. It's.... "Put a dik in they mouth because it's ### what they say." But that is just a tiny lyric in an incredible verse...
Ah, throw dirt on me and grow a wildflower But it's "#### the world", get a child out her Yeah, my life a #####, but you know nothing about her Been to hell and back, I can show you vouchers I'm rolling sweets, I'm smoking sour Married to the game but she broke her vows That's why my bars are full of broken bottles And my night stands are full of open bibles uh I think about more than I forget But I don't go around fire expecting not to sweat And these ###### know I lay them down, make them beg ####### try to kick me while I'm down, I'll break your leg Money outweighing problems on a triple beam I'm sticking to the ######, you ###### skipping scenes, uh Be good or be good at it ####### right I've got my gun, semi-cartermatic Yeah, put a #### in their mouth, so I guess it's #### what they say I'm high as a ##### up, up and away, man, I come down in a couple of days Ok, you want me up in a cage, then I'll come out in beast mode I got this world stuck in the safe, combination is the g-code It's weezy ############, blood gang and I'm in bleed mode All about my dough but I don't even check the peephole So you can keep knocking but won't knock me down No love lost, No love found

Growing up in Spartanburg during the 70's the first time I heard the MTB sing "This Ol' Cowboy", these lines have always stuck with me.
So I don't want you to think That you're the first one To leave me out here on my own Cause this ain't gonna be the first time This ol' cowboy spent the night alone
