Favorite line from a song

[Yamartin]

"I knew that topless lady had somethin' up her sleeve". John Prine.

[rbock]

I went to my doctor
He says I'm all right
I know he's lying
'Cause I'm losin' my sight
He should have examined
The eyes of my mind
Twenty twenty vision
And walkin' 'round blind -- Jimmy Martin

[Mouthy1]

"You forgave and I won't forget" Mumford and Sons

This one has a special meaning to me and I can't help but feel lucky every time I hear it.

[mcduffnw]

"I can see you
In singing skies and dancing waters
Laughing children...growing old
And in the heart...and in the spirit
And in the truth...when it is told..."

John Denver


"And the spirit
Fills the darkness
Of the heavens

It fills the endless yearning
Of the soul

It lives within a star to far to dream of
It lives within each part and is the whole

It's the fire and the wings
That fly us home..."

Joe Henry


"Now the secret of time
Is that time isn't really real

It's all on your point of view
How does it feel for you in there

Einstein said that we could never understand it all

The planets spinning through space
The smile upon your face

Welcome to the human race now
Isn't that a lovely ride..."

JT


Kind Regards

And it echoed through the canyon, like the disappearing dreams of yesterday

Kris Kristofferson - Sunday Morning Coming Down

[Dave J]

Falling all, Over myself to lick your heart and taste your health...Red Hot Chili Peppers...

[stratomundo]

Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said baby can't you see?
I wanna be famous, a star on the screen
But you can do something in between!

[ocmcook]

...picked up a stick from off the ground and knocked that fat girl down

[Rosewood99]

These are awesome but we're really stretching what you consider your favorite "line." Some are practically the whole song.

[Nedro]

"made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast" Jimmy Buffet

[Jim Owen]

He loved the women and he hated the law,
And he just wouldn't take nobody's jaw.

From "Otto Wood the Bandit," The Carolina Buddies.

I used to say that this was my tombstone verse.

[Judson]

+1 ... good choice. Love singing that line.

There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning.

[architype]

"It felt just like Sunday on Saturday afternoon."

Donald and Lydia John Prine
