Favorite lyric from a song.

(That's) why I don't cry when my dog runs away
I don't get angry at the bills I have to pay
I don't get angry when my Mom smokes pot
Hits the bottle and goes right to the rock
****in' and fightin', it's all the same
Livin' with Louie dog's the only way to stay sane
Let the lovin', let the lovin' come back to me

Walking down Main Street getting to know the concrete Looking for a purpose from a neon sign I would meet you anywhere the western sun meets the air We'll hit the road never looking behind

Can you deny there's nothing greater nothing more than the travelling hands of time St. Genevieve can hold back the water Saints dont bother with the tear stained eye

Seeing traces of the stars that came before Hitting the pavement still asking for more When the hours don't move along worn out wood and familiar songs To hear your voice is not enough It's more than a shame

Can you deny there's nothing greater nothing more than the travelling hands of time St. Genevieve can hold back the water Saints dont bother with the tear stained eye

Like a man said rode hard and put away wet Throw away the bad news Just put it to rest If learning is living and the truth is a state of mind you'll find it's better at the end of the line

Can you deny there's nothing greater nothing more than the travelling hands of time St. Genevieve can hold back the water Saints dont bother with the tear stained eye.

Down here, where's we're at
The weather changes, that's the way it goes
Sometimes it snows, when everything's wrong
Sometimes it snows, but when it does, it doesn't last long

Down here, where we're at
All we do is sit out on the porch
And play our songs, and nothing's wrong
Sometime friends come around, they all sing along

Down here, where we're at
Everyone is equally poor
Down here, we don't care
We don't care what happens outside the screen door

Down here, where we're at
Sweat drips from the tip of your nose You wear loose clothes, and you try to stay cool
We all still havea lot of fun, never saw much school

Down here, where we're at
Everyone is equally poor
Down here, we don't care
We don't care what happens outside the screen door.

Uncle Tupelo, Screen Door

If there's one thing I can't take
It's the sound that a woman makes About five seconds after her heart begins to break.

Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, Codeine

We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic

Van is the man. This is the song I want played at my wake.

Some personal favorites.

Ain't no woman gonna change the way I think,
I think I'll just stay here and drink!

I don't beg, from no rich man,
And I don't scream and kick
When his **** don't fall in my hands man
Cuz I know how to steal

Out here in the fields,
I fight for my meals,
I get my back into my living,
I don't need to fight,
To prove I'm right,
I don't need to be forgiven.

Oh, I'm a lucky man
to count on both hands
the ones I love

We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the Hot Springs flow
The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands
We'll fight the horde, singing and crying
Valhalla I am coming
On we sweep, with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore
Led Zep

"And even alongside old sad eyes, who says
"Opportunity knocks once then the door slams shut"
All I know is that I'm sick of everything that my money can buy
A fool who wastes his life god rests his guts"

Well you can stick your nine to five livin'
And your collar and your tie
You can stick your moral standards
'Cause it's all a dirty lie
You can stick your golden handshake
And you can stick your silly rules
And all the other ****
That you teach to kids in school
('Cause I ain't no fool)

"if you don't expect too much from me, you might not be let down" Jealousy, GooGoo Dolls


Lightning crashes, a new mother cries
This moment she's been waiting for
The angel opens her eyes -
pale blue coloured eyes -
presents the circle
and puts the glory out to hide, hide

Lightning Crashes, Live


Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place, where as a child, I'd hide, and wait for the thunder and the rain To quietly pass me by.
