Favorite quotes from classic Rock n Roll songs

Thank you to all the posters that include band and song title, I certainly know a lot of lyrics but don't know them all. Some I saw were interesting but have no idea what it is...

Copy/paste into a search engine works really well so does asking.

Screw it if the poster is unwilling to offer simple courtesy I don't have time to look it up...

'T was in the darkest depths of Mordor
I met a girl so fair
But Gollum, and the evil one
Crept up and slipped away with her
Her, her, yeah
Ain't nothing I can do, no
I guess I keep on rambling
I'm gonna, yeah, yeah, yeah
Sing my song (I gotta find my baby)
I gotta ramble on, sing my song
Gotta work my way around the world baby, baby
Ramble on, yeah

Getting the Led out !
Ramble on Led Zeppelin

Searching doesn't take any more time than whining about it does.

Girl, don't go away mad
Girl, just go away

Literally in the time it took you to post this, you could have looked one up. C'mon man...

"But I can keep a handle on anything
Just this side of deranged"

ZZ Top (Pearl Necklace)

not a huge fan of the song, but I've always like that line!

"So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key"

Eagles (Already Gone)

 

[BugI02]

I believe it's a sin to try and make things last forever
Everything that exists in time runs out of time some day
Got to let go of the things that keep you tethered
Take your place with grace and then be on your way

--- Bruce Cockburn, Mighty Trucks of Midnight

When they kick in your front door, how you gonna' come
With your hands on your head, or on the trigger of your gun

--- The Clash, Guns of Brixton

Explain where the whining is? It was a thanks to those that make it easy.

Ever since the goons broke in and tore apart the place, I keep a tire iron behind the bar, just in case.

That be Rush. Several good ones in that song.... "I will choose a path that's clear, I will choose freewill"

 

[Phil502]

Ooooh!
Wow!
One, Two!
Out on the town, looking for a woman
Gonna give me good love
Anybody want to hang out with me
I'm really burning up
She was standing alone over by the jukebox
Like she's something to sell
I said, Baby what's the going price
She told me to go to hell
Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames

AC/DC
Shot Down in Flames

"So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key"

Eagles (Already Gone)

Good one! Probably many more from Glenn Frey, Don Henley & co

" And if the band your in starts play'n a different tune, I'll see you on the dark side of the moon"
Pink Floyd

" And if the band your in starts play'n a different tune, I'll see you on the dark side of the moon"

This one belongs in the sad but true thread. The talented millionaires cannot set aside their petty differences to acknowledge an adoring publics thirst for a display of their combined talents is just sad. So glad the Eagles got over it...
