Best lines in a song


There has been a long-running thread here of 'Best quotes' but maybe it would be interesting to find out folks' favorite lines from songs. To keep it on some sort of track, let's have a few ground rules.

- Attribution is required, who sang it (or wrote it) and where can we hear it?
- Shorter is better, four lines maximum, a verse. These should be words of wisdom that can be summoned for inspiration in social emergencies.
- If you're an opera fan, you're welcome to post in Italian, just don't expect many high fives from the monolingual among us.

I'll throw out a couple for starters:

When you're rockin' and a rollin' you can't hear your momma call.
Little Richard - Good Golly, Miss Molly

All I want in this life of mine is some good clean fun.
All I want in this life and time is some hit and run.

128x128sfar
This is only temporary. These songs are my worst habits - Brendan Benson. " I don't know if you've been loving some-body, I only know it isn't mine" Elvis Costello.
"Sometimes I find pride holds me back. Its not the way I want to be. I just couldnt help myself"

The Sweetest Ache - Tell Me How It Feels

Found on the Glass Arcade compilation released by Sarah Records release in 1992.

"Little darlin, come with me
Wont you help me share my load
From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road"

Van Morrison - The Bright Side of the Road
Lots of people talk and few of them know, Soul of a woman was created below. Dazed and Confused-Led Zeppelin
I need to put my two cents in...

"I'll be with him on that midnight train to Georgia
I'd rather live in his world than live without him in mine"

Jim Weatherly/Gladys Knight and the Pips

Such love is so rare these days.
