Favorite Country Hooks...phrases, arrangements, harmonies, riffs, production quality. Broad definition

I saw them live at Sloopypooloza 96. One of the craziest beat downs of a nazi skinhead I ever saw. Right in front of the stage. The vandals quit playing mid song to address it. Picked up where they left off when the bloodied POS was drug away.
 
So many good Turnpike Troubadour lines but I really like this one.

Day breaks at the top of the hill
Back-strap from the morning kill
I always kept the best for you

She said, "It's none of my business but it breaks my heart"
Dropped a dozen cheap roses in my shopping cart
Made it out to the truck without breaking down
Everybody knows you in a speed trap town

Sneak a bottle up the bleachers and forget my name
These 5A bastards run a shallow cross

It's a boy's last dream and a man's first loss

"I'm gonna get the gothest girl I can
Black lips and Bettie Page bangs
Horn rimmed glasses and an ass that'll pass
For a glimpse at the promised land"

"Nazi punks, like every other nazi, can #*^@#* off"

Orville Benjamin Lamb, 3rd Army, 1945 (He was a man ahead of his time, and always maintained that Jello stole his entire persona from him. He also claimed he invented the question mark, so there's that.)

A little talking blues from the Man in Black
