I don't give a hoot about what people have to say I'm laughin' as I'm analyzed Lunatics Anonymous that's where I belong Sure cause I am one till my strength is gone Yeah This Beat Goes On This Beat Goes On-The Kings
I've never been a tidy dresser And the fold in my trousers it ain't straight. Still I know a good cloth when I see one. That's why I'm clad in this gray flannel suit. Sometimes I wonder if I should visit a tailor And get myself a smooth outfit. Then I remember what my father said to me. I'll make you from the open road
He said, "Others may come and others may go, But that suit will be around wherever you go" -Three Button Hand Me Down-Faces
And you aint some icon carved out of soap Sent down here to clean up my reputation And baby, I aint your prince charming Now we can live in fear, or act out of hope For some kind of peaceful situation Baby, dont know why the cry of love is so alarming -Thing Called Love-John Hiatt

When I was a young boy, my momma told me "Son. Always be a good boy and don't ever play with guns." But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die. (Folsum Prison Blues)
Livin on the road my friend is gonna keep you free and clean Now you wear your skin like iron Your breath as hard a Kerosene.... Poncho was a bandit boy His horse as fast as polished steel he wore his gun outside his pants For all the honest world to feel(Poncho and Lefty)
Police come I didn't wanna go this morning Police come I didn't wanna go this morning Police come I dident wanna go, showed them the little end of my 44, this morning (old folk tune)
Granpa was a carpenter, he built houses stores and banks Chain-smoked camel cigarettes, hammered nails in planks He was a-level on the level, shaved even every door Voted for Eisenhouer, 'cause Lincoln won the war. (Grampa was a carpenter: John Prine) And almost any John Prine song...

"Eternal Father, strong to save, Whose arm hath bound the restless wave, Who bidd'st the mighty ocean deep Its own appointed limits keep; Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee, For those in peril on the sea! "
This one always moved me, expecially when I heard it sung during Sunday services by around 1,000 Navy recruits in a drill hall at the Great Lakes Training Center in 1966.
