      Sigh… I’m bored. I’ve never started a thread on any forum, but I feel like we all could use a challenge. So, anybody wanna guess what song this set of lyrics come from? My only request is that we don’t get too obscure- don’t make me break out Mr Cabbage Head and the Screamig Radishes!
      Here it goes. What song is this from? Need song and artist please.

      If you find yourself standing at the end of your line
      looking for a piece of something maybe a piece of mind
      fed up, lost, and run down nowhere to hold on
      tired of, take your place at the end son we’ll get to you one by one

      From one to ten on the difficulty scale, this one’s seems about a 6 to me (and a one for SG). Good luck!

          "I got a driveaway car in Georgia
          and baby boy there`s two lines in the road
          one to leave you lonely and other one to leave you alone"

          Any guesses?

            Whew! Goin’ deep! It’s a Richard Buckner song I think but, I dunno which one. To be honest, I cheated a little bit and asked my all knowing buddy. Is this correct?

              I live cement, I hate this street
              Give dirt to me, I bite lament
              This human form, Where I was born
              I now repent

              This one should be a slam dunk.

                        Oh yeah! Now we’re talkin’.
                        That’s The Call Up by The Clash. I got lucky too, as that’s the ONLY Clash album I own! Took me a while to get it though, I went through plenty of Sex Pistols and was about to give up. Good one.
                        Something about listening to The Clash that makes me want to drink and fight…. lol

                        Try this one.

                        No time frame for what I need to do today
                        Here at the yellow house, I think I’m gonna play
                        With some free livin’ lands down the street aways away

                          That’s a hard one, Duane. Here’s an easy one from a pop song, 2001:

                          You cannot quit me so quickly
                          Is no hope in you for me
                          No corner you could squeeze me
                          But I got all the time for you, love

                          Awww, c’mon. I, for one, welcome the challenge!
                          I loved digging through my Allison Krauss and Buck Ownes records to look for the lyrics SG posted earlier in this thread (Good one, SG, by the way!) and wondering what Sex Pistols song Bufo Alvarius posted, even though I was way off track. Guess I’m just lookin for any excuse to talk about music….

                          Oh, and thats Dave Matthews to answer your post.

                                now this one:

                                Now his friend leans over and says
                                Looks like we got us a fag
                                I wonder if that guy’s read one word
                                That wasn’t in a porno mag

                                And I wonder if he ever has cried

                                ;D ;)
                                Cause his kitten got run over and died

                                He’s got his arms around every man’s dream
                                And crumbs in his beard from the seafood special

                                  Just like a willow tree
                                  A breath of spring you see
                                  And oh boy you don’t know what she do to me
