"what can I tell you, my brother, my killer, what can I possibly say? I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you, I'm glad you stood in my way... and I see you there with a rose in your teeth, one more thin gypsy thief..."

just about anything from Leonard Cohen is bound to knock me flat, though.

Too many Irish/Scottish/etc. songs to even begin. But how about:

"Oh, where's my love, she's so long in coming, And what detains her so long from me; Or does she think it a shame or scandal To see me die upon the gallow's tree?"

Or, on a lighter note,

"Before I got married I wore a black shawl; But now that I'm married I wear bugger-all!"

Had to learn "Do You Love An Apple," just to sing that. ;)

And, last but not least:

"Must I go bound while you go free, Must I love a man who doesn't love me? Must I be born with so little art As to love a man who'll break my heart?"

That one hits a little too close to home. Sigh.

Okay, enough outta me. But you asked. ;)
