Music Song lyric challenge

To get fire from a match, you've got to strike it
(Strike it, strike it, strike it, strike it)
To get the feeling from a kiss, you've got to like it
(Like it, like it, like it, like it)

To get ashes from wood, you've got to burn it
And if you want my love, if you want my love
You've got to earn it (Earn it, earn it, earn it)

The Temptations - You've Got To Earn It


Lose
 
Too much to lose
I'm choosing to learn and learning to choose
We find our faith according to lies, according to clues
Remember - I remember
We were gonna burn the world together
But I can't stay - and I can't get away

Home Again - Stone Sour

Tie
 
On the first day of Christmas
I gave my loving dad
A most lovely lavender tie

The Twelve Days of Christmas - Frank Sinatra

Free
 
I met Wanda when she was employed behind the counter at route 60 Bob's Big Boy
Fried Chicken on the front seat, she's sittin' in my lap
We're wipin' our fingers on a Texaco roadmap
I remember Wanda up on scrap metal hill with them big brown eyes that make your heart stand still

Bruce Springsteen - Open All Night


Oil
 
But if I stay here with you, girl
Things just couldn't be the same
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you cannot change
Oh, oh, oh, oh
And the bird you cannot change
And this bird, you cannot change
Lord knows, I can't change

Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Snake
 
Snakedance - all over the world
(snake, snake, dance, dance, ah)
Snakedance - all you boys and girls
(snake, snake, dance, dance, ah)
Snakedance - you got to form a big line
(snake, snake, dance, dance, ah)
Snakedance - you got to have a good time
(snake, snake, dance, dance, ah)

Snakedance - The Rainmakers

Plane
 
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn
Taxi's waiting, he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could cry

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go

I'm leavin' on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

Peter, Paul And Mary - Leaving On A Jet Plane


Hat
 
"Now partner, this ol' hat's better left alone
See it used to be my daddy's, but last year he passed on
My nephew skinned the rattler that makes up this ol' hat band
But back in '69, he died in Vietnam"

"Now the eagle feather was given to me by an Indian friend of mine
But someone ran him down somewhere around that Arizona line
And a real special lady gave me this hat pin
But I don't know if I'll ever see her again"

"You'll ride a black tornado 'cross the western sky
Rope an ol' blue northern, and milk it till it's dry
Bulldog the Mississippi and pin its ears down flat
Long before you take this cowboy's hat"

This Cowboy's Hat - Chris LeDoux

Shoe
 
When the jester sang for the king and queen
In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
And a voice that came from you and me

Oh, and while the king was looking down
The jester stole his thorny crown
The courtroom was adjourned
No verdict was returned

Don McLean - American Pie


Teenage
 
"I am", I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair

"I am"... I cried "I am"... said I
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
Leavin' me lonely still

Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of bein' a king
And then became one
Well, except for the names and a few other changes
If you talk about me, the story's the same one

Neil Diamond - I Am… I Said

Scar
 
Listen to the band, they're playing just for me
Listen to the people paying just for me
All the applause-all the parades
And all the money I have made
Oh, it's lonely at the top

Randy Newman - Lonely at the Top
