- "Has he lost his mind? Can he see or is he blind? Can he walk at all, Or if he moves will he fall?"
- "A jumped-up pantry boy, who never knew his place. He said 'return the rings'. He knows so much about these things."
- "'Cause he gets up in the morning, And he goes to work at nine, And he comes back home at five-thirty, Gets the same train every time."
- "Better keep your head. Don't forget what your good book said."
- "She dreams in color, she dreams in red."
- "Belinda was mine, till the time that I found her, Holding Jim, and loving him."
- " Johnny's playroom is a bunker filled with sand."
- "With a noose around his neck, Cicadas trilling everywhere, He says to the people gathered round him, 'It ain't the water that's not right around here.' "
- "His western shirts and leather, always look so boss. Funky with his body, he's a king. Call him Mister Eagle, dig his chains."
- "Well I quit my job down at the car wash. I left my mama a goodbye note. By sundown I'd left Kingston, With my guitar under my coat."
