Subject: RE: (Quiz) What song is this line from ?
Everyone seems to have beaten me to the ones I knew, so I'll give you some more to play with:

G-1 "See the geese in chevron flight flappin' hard and racin' on before the snow"

G-2 "'Tis dust to dust beneath the sod, but there, up there 'tis heart to heart."

G-3 "... where the humu humu nuku nuku a pu'a'a goes swimming by"

G-4 "Then up spake the babe on his nanny's knee,
"It's afore I'm a man avenged I'll be.""

G-5 "I been in some big towns and heard me some big talk,
But there is one thing I know:"

G-6 "We'll have to walk down where the fields are overgrown.
Consumption's claimed his life and we dare not miss the sight ... "

G-7 "This bonnie lassie, she did blush, and oh, but she felt shame.
'Tis, "Since ye've ta'en the wills o' me, come tell ta me your name."

G-7 " ...and I'll cut a rug till I'm snug in the jug."

G-8 "Oh, it's fine to pass away, but when people start to pay,
That's no time for a businessman to die!"

G-9 "In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start."

G-10 "It was clear as mud but it cover the ground"

G-11 "By 'n' by hard times comes a-knockin' at my door"

G-12 "When purple-colored curtains mark the end of day"

G-13 "And all the money they did waste, I wish it could be sav-ed."

G-14 "pumped a lot of pain down in New Orleans"

G-15 "My old man will be sleepin' an' he won't even know I'm gone."
