papajoe222 Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Seeing as we had such a good response last year with the 'favorite movie line' topic, I thought this might distract us from the boredom of the off season. What's your favorite song lyric? You know the one you always quote or sing when something in particular happens, or just one that you identify with. Quote
FloridaFishinFool Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Great idea for a thread... One line that has always stuck with me over the years came from a Bob Seger song called "Against The Wind" when Bob sings this line: " Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then " Back in context of the song: "Against The Wind" It seems like yesterday But it was long ago Janey was lovely, she was the queen of my nights There in the darkness with the radio playlng low And the secrets that we shared The mountains that we moved Caught like a wildfire out of control Till there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove And I remember what she said to me How she swore that it never would end I remember how she held me oh so tight Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then Against the wind We were runnin' against the wind We were young and strong, we were runnin' Against the wind And the years rolled slowly past And I found myself alone Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends I found myself further and further from my home And I guess I lost my way There were oh so many roads I was living to run and running to live Never worried about paying or even how much I owed Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time Breaking all of the rules that would bend I began to find myself searchin' Searchin' for shelter again and again Against the wind A little something against the wind I found myself seeking shelter against the wind Well those drifters days are past me now I've got so much more to think about Deadlines and commitments What to leave in, what to leave out Against the wind I'm still runnin' against the wind I'm older now but still running Against the wind Well I'm older now and still running Against the wind 1 Quote

Super User buzzed bait Posted January 6, 2016 Super User Posted January 6, 2016 So don't ask me, Hank why do you drink? Hank, why do roll smoke? Why must you live out the songs that you wrote? Stop and think it over, try and put yourself in my unique position. If I get stoned and sing all night long, it's a family tradition! 5 Quote

Super User Fishes in trees Posted January 10, 2016 Super User Posted January 10, 2016 The lyric that recently has been going through my head over and over is an obscure Robert Cray tune. "If you like me, don't say you love me. .. . If you love me, don't say you like me . . . .I don't want to wait til Halloween to play trick or treat." Quote

Catch 22 Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 THE BEATLES LYRICS Play Music with Radiorage - Download "When I'm Sixty Four" When I get older losing my hair Many years from now Will you still be sending me a valentine Birthday greetings, bottle of wine? If I'd been out till quarter to three Would you lock the door? Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four? You'll be older too And if you say the word I could stay with you I could be handy, mending a fuse When your lights have gone You can knit a sweater by the fireside Sunday mornings go for a ride Doing the garden, digging the weeds Who could ask for more? Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four? Every summer we can rent a cottage in the Isle of Wight If it's not too dear We shall scrimp and save Grandchildren on your knee Vera, Chuck & Dave Send me a postcard, drop me a line Stating point of view Indicate precisely what you mean to say Yours sincerely, wasting away Give me your answer, fill in a form Mine for evermore Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four? Ho! =========Always been a catchy tune for me. Guess I have to pick a new song cause I cleared the 64 hurdle long ago Quote
