Favorite Lyrics By Album
some of my favorite lyrics and the excellent albums they came from. |
| 1 |  | Tom Waits Alice
and I must be insane /
to go skating on your name
and by tracing it twice
I fell through the ice |
| 2 |  | The Grateful Dead Blues For Allah
I was blind all the time /
I was learning to see |
| 3 |  | CAKE Prolonging the Magic
houses are sliding in the mud /
rivers are raging in your blood /
where would I be without your love? |
| 4 | | Bob Dylan The Times They Are A-Changin'
and yes, there's something you can send back to me /
spanish boots of spanish leather |
| 5 |  | Neil Young On The Beach
an ambulance can only go so fast |
| 6 |  | Pink Floyd Meddle
no one sings me lullabies /
and no one makes me close my eyes /
so I throw the windows wide /
and call to you across the skies |
| 7 |  | Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison
I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die |
| 8 |  | The Velvet Underground Loaded
Some people they like to go out dancing /
And other people they have to work /
And there's even some evil mothers /
Well they're gonna tell you that everything is just dirt /
You know that women never really faint /
And that villains always blink their eyes /
That children are the only ones who blush /
And that life is just to die /
But anyone who ever had a heart /
They wouldn't turn around and break it /
And anyone who ever played a part /
They wouldn't turn around and hate it /
Sweet Jane, Sweet Sweet Jane |
| 9 |  | Alice in Chains Alice in Chains
like the coldest winter chill /
heaven beside you, hell within |
| 10 | | The Grateful Dead Workingman's Dead
I don't know but I been told /
it's hard to run with the weight of gold /
other hand I heard it said /
just as hard with the weight of lead |
