  1. ^ A man's gotta feed his family, you know.
  2. Well, if they freed me from this prison If that railroad train was mine I bet I'd move it on a little Farther down the line Far from Folsom Prison That's where I want to stay And I'd let that lonesome whistle Blow my blues away
  3. Bought a ticket for a runaway train Like a madman laughin' at the rain Little out of touch, little insane Just easier than dealing with the pain Runaway train never comin' back Wrong way on a one way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there
  4. I remember when rock was young Me and Suzie had so much fun Holding hands and skimming stones Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own But the biggest kick I ever got Was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock While the other kids were Rocking 'Round the Clock We were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock
  5. Both. Would ya walk across a tightrope, 25 stories above Times Square, for a chance at having carnal relations with her?
  6. If life were easy and not so fast I wouldn't think about the past I can't forget to turn the earth so both sides get their share Of darkness and of light
  7. Interesting point. Kinda reminds me of something Jerry Garcia once said: "I read somewhere that 77% of all the mentally ill live in poverty. Actually, I'm more intrigued by the 23% who are apparently doing quite well for themselves."
  8. A textbook example of the Dunning-Kruger Effect.
  9. "Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read." - Groucho Marx
  10. Get myself a car I feel power as I fly Whoa, now I'm really in control It all looks fine To the naked eye But it don't really happen that way at all! Don't happen that way at all!
  11. Sometimes we live no particular way but our own Sometimes we visit your country and live in your home Sometimes we ride on your horses, sometimes we walk alone Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world The heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own Wake now, discover that you are the song that the morning brings The heart has its seasons, its evenings and songs of its own
  12. "Address the ball? What does that mean?"
  13. I prefer "cautiously optimistic," as in, "how I approach football season every year." Of course, some years lean more to the cautious side, while others are more optimistic, so ... oh, hell ... never mind.
  14. Abbott and Costello. "Who's on First" will outlive baseball itself. I don't think of Cheech and Chong as old-time, mainly because they were current when I was a teen. A few years ago I was at a social gathering of ... let's just say very educated individuals ... when someone got a call from a guy she was dating. His name was Dave, and when she answered the phone, she said, "Dave?" I was one of four people who responded, in unison, "Dave's not here." I learned something about three of my colleagues that night. ?
  15. Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time. Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over, Thought I'd something more to say.
  16. It works, and if it makes her happy, you've got two reasons.
  17. Big boss man, can't you hear me when I call Big boss man, can't you hear me when I call Well, you ain't so big, you're just tall, that's all Got me working, boss man, working 'round the clock I want a little drink of water, but you just won't let me stop Big boss man, can't you hear me when I call? Well, you ain't so big, you just tall, that's all Well, I'm gonna get me a boss man, one gonna treat me right Work hard in the day time, rest easy at night Big boss man, can't you hear me when I call? Well, you ain't so big, you're just tall, that's all
  18. What you described isn't her just saying, "I have no interest in sports," it's "I have no interest in sports and therefore you'll have to stop watching sports." In that case, yes - run away. But her having no interest in sports, in and of itself, is not a reason to ditch her. My wife has no interest in sports but she has no problem with me watching football. She'll even watch a game with me now and then. We've been together for 32 years and I'm glad I didn't run away when she said she wasn't interested in sports.
  19. Always took candy from strangers Didn't wanna get me no trade Never want to be like papa Working for the boss every night and day I need a love to keep me happy I need a love, baby won't ya keep me happy Baby, won't ya keep me happy
  20. Sharks don't normally attack lawyers. It's a matter of professional courtesy.
  21. Partly sunny vs partly cloudy
  22. I've been drivin' all night, my hand's wet on the wheel There's a voice in my head that drives my heel It's my baby callin', says "I need you here" And it's a half past four and I'm shiftin' gear When she is lonely and the longing gets too much She sends a cable comin' in from above Don't need no phone at all We've got a thing that's called radar love We've got a wave in the air, radar love
  23. That's okay - they know me here.
