Post a great line from a song, the song's name, and the recording artist

[GON]

Thought to start a casual thread to post a great line from a song. Might be good to post the song's name, and its recording artist. Of course a link to the music video is supplemental.

Here is one:

" Send lawyers , guns, and money"

Name is also: Send lawyers, guns, and money

Warren Zevon

 

[Zaedock]

"I got a six pack and nothing to do". "I got a six pack, and I don't need you!".

Song: Six Pack

by Black Flag

 

[wpod]

and me I'm flyin in my Taxi taking tips and getting stoned. Taxi by Harry Chapin.

Two great lines from the same great song...
"What happened to the girl I used to know? You let your mind out somewhere down the road."
"You're lookin' good, just like a snake in the grass. One of these days, you're gonna break your glass."
Don't Bring Me Down by Electric Light Orchestra

 

[SammyChevelleTypeS3]

Hank Thompson: Hey Mr bartender... I got time for one more round, and a six pack to go.....

I'll bet no one has a clue, "who one earth is Hank Thompson."

"This whole world's gone crazy
Think I've seen enough
I'm gonna sleep forever, why get up?"
Every word in this song is great. This is exactly how I feel some mornings.
