Uncle Tupelo

Moonshiner


I've been a moonshiner
for seventeen long years
and I spent all my money
on whiskey and beer
and I go to some hollow
and set up my still
if whiskey don't kill me
Lord, I don't know what will

The Kinks


Girl, you really got me goin' 
You got me so I don't know what I'm doin', now
Yeah, you really got me now 
You got me so I can't sleep at night

William Elliott Whitmore

Bury your burdens in the ground

If you've got burdens
Don't carry them
Just bury them, in the ground
If you're hurting
Don't worry
I will try to be around

The Wire

You know what the trouble is, Brucey?
We used to make shit in this country, build shit.
Now we just put our hand in the next guy's pocket.

Elbow

I've been working on a cocktail called Grounds for Divorce
Whoah
Polishing a compass that I hold in my sleeve
Whoah
Down comes him on sticks but then he kicks like a horse
Whoah
There's a Chinese cigarette case
And the rest you can keep
And the rest you can keep
And the rest you can keep

Steve Earle


Sunset in my mirror, pedal on the floor
Bound for New York City and I won’t be back no more
Won’t be back no more, boys won’t see me around
Goodbye guitar town.

The Creedence Clearwater Revival

Some folks are born to wave the flag,
ooh, they're red, white and blue.
and when the band plays "hail to the chief",
ooh, they point the cannon at you, lord,
It ain't me, it ain't me, i ain't no senator's son, son.
it ain't me, it ain't me; i ain't no fortunate one, no,
yeah!

Struggle for Pleasure





Simple Minds


You turn me on, you lift me up 
And like the sweetest cup I’d share with you 
You lift me up, don’t you ever stop, I’m here with you 
Now it’s all or nothing 
’cause you say you’ll follow through 
You follow me, and i, i, I follow you

R.L. Burnside


I'm not afraid of being insane
Been here too long, and I've seen too much

I got messed up. Ooh, I got messed up
I got messed up. Ooh, I got messed up

David Carbonara


By the waters, 
the waters, 
of Babylon.
We lay down 
And wept, 
And wept,
For thee Zion.
We remember Thee,
Remember Thee Zion.
By the waters, 
The waters, 
Of Babylon.
We laid down 
And wept, 

And wept
For thee Zion
We remember thee, 
Remember thee Zion.







The Smiths


Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore

The Wire

- Let me understand you.
Every Friday night,
you and your boys would shoot crap, right?
And every Friday night,
your pal Snotboogie...
he'd wait till there was cash on the ground,
then grab the money and run away?
You let him do that?

-We catch him and beat his ass.
But ain't nobody ever go past that.

- I gotta ask you.
If every time Snotboogie
would grab the money and run away...
Why'd you even let him in the game?

- What?

- If Snotboogie always stole the money,
why'd you let him play?

- Got to. This America, man...
