In my opinion, one of the most clever, perfect lyrical lines ever written. I love the triple alliteration, especially as driven home by the silent "w" in wren.

When I hear an entire song built out of one single clever idea, it makes me wonder how hard the writer had to squeeze his idea to get a whole song out.
In the country genre, my vote goes to Nick Lowe "All men are liars".
A nice bouncy cover by Dar Williams is at: http://bekkoame.ne.jp/~aabb/audio/liars.mp3
Featuring fabulous guitar by Doug Wainoris
All Men are Liars
All men, all men are liars,
Their word ain't worth no more than worn out tires,
Hey girls! Bring rusty pliars to pull this tooth,
'Cos all men are liars …….and that’s the truth !
Do you remember Rick Astley?
He had a big fat hit, it was ghastly
He said 'I'm never gonna give you up, or let you down'
Well I'm here to tell you that Dick's a clown.
Though he was just a boy when he made that vow,
I'd bet it all, he knows by now
All men………….
Of all God's creatures man must be,
The most slimy and slippery,
Here comes the naked ape in his monkey suit,
With the little moustache he grew, the ugly brute
When he's not choking on his words he ate
He's sweating on getting his story straight
All men……..
Cheers
Matt
It would be interesting to know how many forumites are (like me) songwriters first and steelers second? When I took up steel 25 years ago my ambition was to get good enough to play simple authentic steel on my song demos. I'm still working on it!

I was the cook, ----she was the waitress
Down at Salty Sams seafood cafe
Somewhere between the clam juice and the seaweed salad

Oh, I Lobster, n' never Flounder
He wrapped his line around her
and they drove off in his Carp
Oh, I Lobster n' never Flounder
I Octopus his face in,
Eel only break her heart.
I said "just Squid and leave me for that piano Tuna
If you want to Trout something new"
She was the Bass I ever had and my life has no Porpoise
Oh by golly I love her, yes I do
(Speaking):
#1 I swordfish she'd come back to me!
#2 Aw, if she did, she'd just throw ya the same ole' line: "Not
tonight, dear, I have a haddock."
#1 But I've kelpt her picture in my walleye all these years, just for the
halibut. I wonder if she's kept mine in her perch.
#2 Well, we'd better quit sea-horsin' around here-these people look like

Jerusalem
(Steve Earle)
I woke up this mornin' and none of the news was good
And death machines were rumblin' 'cross the ground where Jesus stood
And the man on my TV told me that it had always been that way
And there was nothin' anyone could do or say
And I almost listened to him
Yeah, I almost lost my mind
Then I regained my senses again
And looked into my heart to find
That I believe that one fine day all the children of Abraham
Will lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem
Well maybe I'm only dreamin' and maybe I'm just a fool
But I don't remember learnin' how to hate in Sunday school
But somewhere along the way I strayed and I never looked back again
But I still find some comfort now and then
Then the storm comes rumblin' in
And I can't lay me down
And the drums are drummin' again
And I can't stand the sound
But I believe there'll come a day when the lion and the lamb
Will lie down in peace together in Jerusalem
And there'll be no barricades then
There'll be no wire or walls
And we can wash all this blood from our hands
And all this hatred from our souls
And I believe that on that day all the children of Abraham
Will lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem

Biggest heads and biggest hearts, biggest various body parts

Toss your hats into the air, we're obnoxious, we don't care

Here's a couple Junior lines that I especially like:
"She's just venom wearin denim
She's a nightmare not a dream"
"I'm semi-crazy
I gotta be half nuts
to keep runnin' up and down the road in these semi trucks"
"I gotta get up every mornin'
just to say goodnight to you"

by the time you get here, I'll be long gone
There's someone new and he sure ain't no rodeo man.
I said, I'm sorry it's come down to this
there's so much about you that I'm gonna miss
But it's alright baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne.||68.135.141.12||reg||

"And I need you more than want you. And I want you for all time." - Webb
