songs remembered from just one line

[Cindy!]

I still throw a few back, talk a little smack

When I'm feelin bullet proof

I know this one so I'll name it - As Good As I Once Was by Toby Keith.

The idea in this game is to give the first line, then if nobody gets it from that, you add the second line...

I saw Toby Keith in concert a couple years ago - great show! We did a lot of cruising around in my car that year blasting his "Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue" around town with the kids singing/screaming "... cause we'll put a boot in yer a s s, it's the American way!"

Wanna try another, but this time use the first line of the song?

Do you ever feel like breaking down?

No idea.

Do you ever feel like breaking down?

Yes, but that's beside the point.

[Cindy!]

Do you ever feel like breaking down?

Do you ever feel out of place?

[waysider]

No idea

got distracted by finals and alotta snow....here's the next few lines in the song....

I use this song when I teach poetry....it's a great example of teenage angst, a simple song, really (hint, hint)

Do you ever feel like breaking down?

Do you ever feel out of place?

Like somehow you just don't belong

And no one understands you

There's been so many girls that I've known

[waysider]

Nobody knows this one???

I'm amazed.

(And a bit embarrassed since the whole idea is that the song will be instantly known by the first line.)

It's Heart Of Stone by The Rolling Stones.

I guess somebody gets a free post since I failed to deliver.

[now I see]

The weird thing is, I woulda guessed that song if it was any line other than the first line.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

This one's probably been done before, but...

My Daddy said "Son, you're gonna drive me to drinkin.'"

George

[GeorgeStGeorge]
