Greatest Opening Lines to a song

[yeseye]

"Dream Attack"

Nothing in this world
Can touch the music that I've heard
When I woke up this morning
It put the sun into my life
It cut my heartbeat with a knife
It was like no other morning

 

[remember arthur mann]

I fucked Dolly Parton. I fucked Loretta Lynn. I fucked Barbara Mandrell and I fucked all of her kin.

Smooth talking bastad.

 

[MCFCTrick]

Well she wore big knickers and she worked on't sewage farm...

^^^^ This.

 

[BimboBob]

Once upon a time when we were friends, I gave you my heart, the story ends.

 

[BimboBob]

Remember back in the days when n****s had waves?
Cazal shades and corn braids?
Pitching pennies, honeys had the high-top jellies
Shooting skelly, motherfuckers was all friendly
Lounging at the barbecues, drinking brews
With the neighborhood crews hanging on the avenues
Turn your pages to 1993
N****s is getting smoked, G, believe me



Talk about setting the scene for an entire album in an instant.

No idea what any of that means but I will tell you this youngbob me lad...their grammar is atrocious.

 

[GaudinosWheels]

The screen door slams, Mary's dress sways
Like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays
Roy Orbison's singing for the lonely
Hey, that's me and I want you only
Don't turn me home again
I just can't face myself alone again

 

[Out on blue 6]

Here are the young men, the weight on their shoulders
Here are the young men, well where have they been?
We knocked on the doors of Hell's darker chamber
Pushed to the limit, we dragged ourselves in

 

[staffsblue]

I've been walking in the rain just to get wet on purpose.

 

[talkativesprout]

Teardrops...Rusting on a steel bar, Harmonica Blues
Hearts Blood...Thick enough for pine tar, I've got a hole in my dancing shoes
Grown men, wither and they dry away, their lives compromised
I've gotta hold on strugle through another day
to see the fire in my babies eyes
Societies debts have been more than pay.....aid

 

[Manc baggie]

You drink your coffee,
I sip my tea,
And we're sitting here, playing so cool,
Thinking, 'What will be, will be.'

 

[Sid C]

There once was a man and his name was Ged

 

[Manc baggie]

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable
But in the end, it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

 

[billblu]

Early one morning the sun was shining was laying in bed wondering if she'd changed at all if her hair was still red

 

[TonyColemansbagofapples]

I'm mad, I've always been mad

 

[Manc baggie]

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best
And…..

 

[TonyColemansbagofapples]

There once was a man and his name was Ged

Do you mean
"Come and listen to my story 'bout a man named Jed?

 

[billblu]

I never thought it would happen with me and the girl from Clapham out on the windy common that night I ain't forgotten when she dealt out the rations with some or other passions I said you are a lady perhaps she said I may be

 

[Sid C]

Do you mean
"Come and listen to my story 'bout a man named Jed?

I think so lol

 

[Grassland Blue]

Stood still on a highway I saw a woman by the side of the road
With a face that I knew like my own, reflected in my window
Well, she walked up to my quarter light and she bent down real slow
A fearful pressure paralysed me in my shadows
She said: Son, what are you doing here?
My fear for you has turned me in my grave
I said: Mama, I come to the valley of the rich, myself to sell
She said: Son, this is the road to hell

Or -
Well I'm standing by a river
where the water doesn't flow
it boils with every poison you can think of
This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway
oh no, this is the road to hell....

 

[Blue Mist]

This one beats all others hands down because of the instrumental opening and then......
It was the 3rd of of September
That day I'll always remember, yes I will
Cos that was the day that my daddy died
Never heard nothing but bad things about him
Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth.......
Mama just hung her head and said son

Papa Was A Rolling Stone.
