"Catch as catch"....
"see a gun is real easy in this desperate part of town"
"Put one and one together and it blows my mind"
"here's to your thin,red line I'm stepping over"
"You corner my dog, it don't let you pass
Got a bad little' woman, gon' bite yo' ass"
"I found the simple life ain't so simple"
"I am a victim of the science age"
"I'll protect you baby with my Elephant gun"
"Waltzed through the door wised up quick"

Feel Free to cuntribute:hitch:

Wolves at my door wised up quick.
Turn here and gone from on the go.
Seems the old folks who come up short were the pretty
little kids who didn't want it, no.

Some goes to women, some goes to Jesus,
though I'm absolutely certain both's all right.
But it takes me at least halfway to the label
'fore I can even make it through the night.

I told her, never in hell, no special reason.
Must a lied 'cause I ain't leavin'.
We're in for a very long night.

-"She wore a whole lot of not enough And served it up with class Had a sunny disposition
And a somewhat shady past"
-"Wow! Don't you lie Just you listen thru me My words at best to you A fortune coo-coo-coo-kie"
-"Say you're gonna leave me 'Cause I only tie you up I always loved you tender But you only like it rough Woman bound for glory Why you leavin' me again?"


He is the only one that can do what he does thats why we do love him tha way we do.

And off they drove,
late night still life,
paper moon shinin' brilliantly.

I'm sure he thinks that's cool
'cause any moon or mouse says he's a friend of hers
and this one will do just fine.

So what do you say we........ go lookin'?

***********


Till I finally made it
Life was kinda hit or miss

But after I made it
Life was "Take a hit of this"

And I'd love to talk philosophy
But I've gotta take a piss

Man, that philosophy runs right through ya
Take it from me baby


I've got experience

Combat Ready
02-26-2009, 10:30 PM
Oh yeah.....


Heard a vicious rumor from your mama's tongue
You a desperate woman, need a man with a gun

High crime zone, in the city o' lights

Ain't nothing's once upon a time
Got a rosy future, and a big behind
Might get lucky
Never mind
I hear beginners do it
All the time!!



She looks like Monroe
It's a good impersonation
From start to finish
It's her better side
Head over heels
Yes, he feels a strange sensation
Excedrin Headache #65


And it's up the road
Turn right next Thursday
Think that's where I'm gone I ain't drownin' just wavin'
Ain't even worh a song
See ya in the funny papers
Guess that's where I'll be


-cause i got it thumpin' through the hallways, thats why.

Yeah I'm walkin'
Don't need no ride
No explanation
Just wastin' time

Neighbors getting crazy bout the noise next door
It's a major violation
Carried away for sure

See I've been tried and convicted
It's winner take all
I want a run for my money
Thats all

Danger in the rearview mirror, there's trouble in the wind
Badness bringing up the rear, the menace is loose again

Also sounds like Hunter Thompson's writing...

(I thought it was ''Madness bringing up the rear"?)

I've known fast livin'
I've known wine, women, and song
Become the long locomotive for me
Big train, keep rollin'
Not me, I'm goin'
Before wine, women, and song
Turn into beer, the old lady, and TV

You guys hit on a lot of my faves but here's a few more

The question is not 'does love exist?'
But when she leaves where she goes
I got the feeling she don't know either
Wait like the wind watch where she blows
~Secrets

All I want to give you woman, is the best part of a man.

I can't believe no one posted on of my favorite and funniest one liners from "Panama". "I've got an on ramp runnin through my bedroom!"

Now who's that babe with the fabulous shadow?
It's only one scene, but to me it don't matter
Her movies get down like you won't find in my hometown
They won't believe it when they see what they're seein'
Go see baby now!
Pictures on the silver screen
Greatest thing you've ever seen
Now her name is up in lights
Everything turns out all right
Daddy's little sweetie after some damn rainbow
Got the big deal in the back of a limo
Now showbiz is so thrillin', the camera rolls she's willin'
They won't believe it when they see what they're seein'
Go see baby now!
Hey, you remember when that girl was prom queen?
Oh wow! Take it off! Take it all off!
Pictures on the silver screen
Greatest thing you've ever seen
Now her name is up in lights
Everything turns out all right
Now they believe it, now that they've seen it
Go see baby now!
Pictures on the silver screen
Greatest thing you've ever seen
Now my baby's up in lights
Everything turns out all right
Lights! Camera! Action!
:hee:

uh, is this a test?

It's "Wolves at the door, wised up quick..."

'A' for effort, though....good thread.:biggrin:

A little zen, headed your way
You'll get it....halfway down the interstate
Four days from now...It all goes clear
A Buddhist riff for your inner ear

4 days, my ass...took Ed over a decade to get it.

Well look at me
got me in her sights
Is this a blessing in disguise?
Fatality on a Saturday night
Whoo!
Right between the eyes
Well honey I know your never satisfied
just a pair a' dice on a role
Got to take the fat chance
This aint suicide
Sit back and let it all unfold
