"I'll Sleep When I'm Dead"

[f4f3]

I'm still keeping up the gym habit, by the way, and I used an old playlist I hadn't listened to for a while this morning. It's called "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" and is full of macho-going to the gym stuff. How many of the first lines do you recognise? 

“So much to do, there’s plenty on the farm”

“I was cutting a rug down at a place called the jug, with a girl named Linda Lou”

“Hi, this is Peggy, leave me a nice message or I’ll kill you”

“I was a sailor I was lost at sea, I was under the waves until love rescued me”

“There we stood and there we left/Outside the flashing neon sign”

“My brother Jim and my other brother Jack, went off down to Houston and they’re never comin’ back.”

“I lit out for Reno I was trailed by twenty hounds”

“Keep your eyes on the road your hands upon the wheel”

“I’m tired of putting up with your sober ways, I’m tired of looking at you through an alcoholic haze.”

“Well I'm goin' out west/Where the wind blows tall 'Cause Tony Franciosa/Used to date my maw”

“Guess who just got back today, them wild eyed boys that had been away.”

“Well when you’re sitting there, in your silk upholstered chair.”

“How do you think it feels, when you’re speeding and lonely”

“Here comes the shake/The speed-decade wake”

“Well a red-necked nerd in a bowling shirt, was guzzling Lone Star beer, talking religion and politics for all the world to hear”
