Let's Play "Name That Tune"! Guess Song From 1 Line Of Lyrics...
Here's a line from a song to see if anyone can come up with title and artist:

Cigarettes, ice cream, figurines of the Virgin Mary.

20. "A strange sort of evening. I ended up at a little vinyl place called
the 3 Little Pigs...

I was staring at the beer nuts, and the swizzle sticks, and the 3 Little Pigs...

I was getting a lot of visual and verbal insubordination from a double knit character in the corner.... One of those nights...

Warm Beer, Cold Women, <--Song Title
I just don't fit in,
Every joint I stumble into tonight,
That's just how it's been.

All these double knit strangers,
Gin and Vermouth...
Recycled stories... In the naugahyde booth...

This should be easy, and you didn't say WHERE the one line of lyrics should be so, let's see what you got...

"Woke up, got out of bed, dragged a comb across my head"...

26. Bobby Darin
It's our song, myself and the Prophetess. Here's the lyrics:
Somewhere beyond the sea

Somewhere waitin’ for me

My lover stands on golden sands

And watches the ships that go sailin’.



Somewhere beyond the sea

She's there watchin’ for me

If I could fly like birds on high

Then straight to her arms I’d go sailin’.



It's far beyond the stars

It's near beyond the moon

I know beyond a doubt

My heart will lead me there soon.



We'll meet beyond the shore

We'll kiss just as before

Happy we'll be beyond the sea

And never again I'll go sailin'.



I know beyond a doubt

My heart will lead me there soon

We'll meet … I know we'll meet … beyond the shore

We'll kiss just as before.



Happy we'll be beyond the sea

And never again I'll go sailin'.



No more sailin' …

So long sailin' …

Bye, bye sailin'...

Move on out, captain …

So long, ensign …
