"I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck..."
For some reason, I've always loved that line.
And another:
"Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night, lookin' for the fight of her life
In the real-time world, no one sees her at all
They all say she's crazy..."
Maybe I like that one so much because I can personally identify.
