"Well, there's a picture in a gallery
Fallen angel, looked a lot like you
We forget where we come from sometimes
I had a dream it was really you"

Not that it's my favorite but, it's been stuck in my head all day.

Snake Farm – it just sounds nasty
Snake Farm – well it pretty much is
Snake Farm – it's a reptile house
Snake Farm – Uuuggghhhhh...

It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford.

Slowin' down to take a look at me.

"And I remember what she said to me
How she swore that it never would end
I remember how she held me oh so tight
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then"

One of my favorite by John Prine and Iris Dement

He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays
I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies
He ain't too sharp but he gets things done
Drinks his beer like it's oxygen
He's my baby
And I'm his honey
Never gonna let him go

John Prine was truly one of the greats! It was sad to see him go.
He does a good rendition of Blaze Foley's "Clay Pigeons"

Favorite line, " and get along with it all"

Another vote for John Prine.

There's a hole in Daddy's arm where the money goes. Sam Sloan.

Hello in there-Prine

"You know that old trees just grow stronger,
And old rivers grow wilder every day.
Old people just grow lonesome
Waiting for someone to say, "Hello in there, hello."

So if you're walking down the street sometime
And spot some hollow ancient eyes,
Please don't just pass 'em by and stare
As if you didn't care, say, "Hello in there, hello."
