    Have we ever done this before?
    I don't know.

    Anyway, how about a place to guess what song a line came from.
    Must be from classic rock songs circa 1950 to 1975 or so.
    No obscure songs please.

    I'll start.
    From a number one song that was banned at one time by someone somewhere, the line is:

    "Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess"

    The Who - Who are You

    I believe the correct lyric is "and the breeze blew back my hair"

    Next one:

    "The doctor said I need rest - put me on the critical list..."

    = ? (I believe that line is from "I Don't Need No Doctor" by WASP -though I hadn't heard of it)

    "Oh, but how can words express the feel of sunlight in the morning - In the hills away from city strife
    I need a country woman for my wife - I'm city born but I love the country life"
