[BaseballUmp]

%#$&#es ain't ^&*! But $#@s and tricks

[Antec]

Great Ed Bruce song that I have on a 45 and 33 lps

[GrTigers6]

"Well, Excuse me but I think you got my chair"
The Chair, George Strait

!I could be holding you tonight"
I think I will just stay here and drink, Merle Haggard

[PPHSfan]

Just my opinion, but if it's a great opening line, there is no need to name the song or artist.

"Wake up Maggie, I think I've got something to say to you "

First lines.

Geez.

"There must be some kind of way out of here, said the joker to the thief."

[Ernest T Bass]

"Welcome to the jungle. We've got fun and games."

"The only two things in life that make it worth livin'..."

[PPHSfan]

“Picture yourself in a boat on a river, with tangerine trees and marmalade skies”

['Necks 2013-14]

Not the opening line but--"I got a shotgun rifle and a 4wheel drive and a country boy can survive!" Truer words have never applied more than to the times we may be moving into. Just a thought.

[sinfan75]

I ain't drinkin alone I'm on the phone with my brother!

[PPHSfan]

"ticking away the moments that make up a dull day…”

[Old LB]

Are you gonna take me home tonight......

[Ernest T Bass]

OPENING lines, people. That means the first line in the song!

And PPHS, you've lost me on the last 2.

[Old LB]

I hurt myself today... to see if I still feel

[BaseballUmp]

I grab your hand and you say wait. I say no girl it's way too late.

An Empty Glass, That last cigarette, it's closing time, and I'm drunk again

SintonFan, you know that song was actually making fun of conservatives, right?

[Old LB]

I wish a buck was still silver it was back when the country was strong.....

Well the honky tonks in Texas were my natural second home

Are you talking about the Haggard song?
Who says I can't be a little complicated when it comes to good music.:nerd:

BTW, I'm not sure the term "conservative" was either coined back when that song came out or means what it means today.;)

[Old LB]

First thing I remember know'in was a lonesome whistle blowin...

Off topic:

My favorite part about Okie from Muskogee is "white lightning is still the biggest thrill of all"

They don't smoke grass cause it's wrong, but they don't mind illegal moonshine.

Lol

[BaseballUmp]

To all the ladies in the place with style and grace, allow me to lace these lyrical duches in your bushes
