Talking about Townes Van Zandt:

"The dust that Pancho bit down south
Ended up in Lefty's mouth"

And here's one that I heard this morning on Archie Fisher's show on BBC Scotland. It's from a song called (I think) "Whiskey Lullaby":

"He put the bottle to his head and pulled the trigger".

I wish I'd caught the duo that sang it.
