Playing guitar like a-ringin' a bell and lookin' like he should"

Was that it because I was trying to draw some attention is all.   Yellow Submarine  isn't even the song.  It is a Beatles song however.  "We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim
And then, the fireman rushes in from the pouring rain,
Very strange"

I noticed an interesting thing going back to the first posts for this thread.  The "srfjol" thread began as providing songs from the first line but eventually morphed into how I think we are playing it now, that is; posting any lyric easily memorable from any line in a song then that song lyric is suggested.  Somehow I don't think that your line is that memorable George.

Oh wait, I just got it!  It's that one hit wonder from the U.S. marine isn't it?  I was hoping I could remember the name but It escapes me.  The Ballad of [Something].

[GeorgeStGeorge]

He wasn't a Marine; he was an Army Staff Sergeant (which COULD help with the title).

I always try to post the first line from a song, unless it contains the title.

It's a ballad, not a ballet, but go ahead.

Yes, the Ballad of the Green Berets,  by Jimmy Dean (the breakfast sausage Jimmy Dean, yes.)

So, your turn.
