If it was easy as fishing you could be a musician

Oh wait, that's possibly the worst lyric ever written....perhaps the topic for another thread

Gordon Lightfoot's Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald gives me chills when I hear it:

"In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed,
in the "Maritime Sailors' Cathedral."
The church bell chimed 'til it rang twenty-nine times
for each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald."

In a similar vein:

"So you can go where you go, and do what you do, and be who you want to be,
But when she burns you again, and your phone doesn't ring,...Baby it's me."

Mary Chapin Carpenter, "Never Had it So Good"

Talking

Ray Wylie Hubbard------Conversation With The Devil


He said, "Come on over here son, let me show you around
Over there's where we put the preachers, I never liked those clowns
They're always blaming me for everything wrong under the sun
It ain't that harder to do what's right, it's just maybe not as much fun
Then they walk around thinking they're better than me and you
And then they get caught in a motel room
Doing what they said not to do"

After a breakup from the then "love of my life" (right girl, wrong time), I can look no farther than the following lines from George Straight's Marina Del Ray:

Like the ocean tides
High and lows
Love sometimes comes and goes away

I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now

Fish swim
Birds fly
Daddys yell
Mamas cry
Old men sit and think
I drink

I can't resist:

"She's so hot
And I love her a lot
She's got everything I haven't got
Like savoir faire
Joie de vivre
Je ne sais quoi like you wouldn't believe" - the Mr. T Experience
