Hmmm....this'll be an ongoing thing.
First one that comes to mind is:
"Well he shot four men in a cocaine deal, and left em lyin' in an open field full of cars with bullet holes in the hoods...." - Neil Young "Tired Eyes".

I'm not saying it's the greatest--too much thought to give anything just now--but I like:

"Charlie, I'm pregnant, livin' on 9th street above a dirty bookstore off Euclid Avenue."

- T. Waits, "Christmas Card From a Hooker in Minneapolis."

I had to leave town for a little while, you said you'd be good while I was gone, but the look in your eye now told me you told a lie, I know there's been some carryin' on....

For Ian.  That may be the best opening line to an album I know of given the context it came in.

I never heard the original but I have a hard time imagining it better than Mr Cash's version.  That song alone converted me to Johnny Cash.

The Best things in life are free....

Whatchoo want baby I got it...

Sometimes I feel like I dont have a partner, sometimes I feel like my only friend is the city I live in.

Here comes the nice, he knows what I need, hes always there when I need some speed

Everyday is the same I feel it again Im a loser no chance to win

Southern trees bare a strange fruit blood on the leaves and blood at the roots
