songs remembered from just one line

I was going to post another line but -- and this is kind of embarrasing -- I realized that I only know about 2 or 3 lines from the whole song, which was "Tumbling Dice" by the Rolling Stones.

I heard once that some old blues guy taught Mick Jagger to never enunciate his words clearly, to always slur them a little (or a lot).

FREE POST!

Going back soul searcher what was the song with,

Always in a hurry

Never stop to worry, in it?

Tumbling Dice, but the lyrics may be a little off.

Oh father high in heaven

Smile down upon your son

Whose busy with his money games

His women and his gun

Oh Jesus save me!

And the unsung Western hero

He killed an Indian or three

And then he made his name in Hollywood

To set the white man free

Oh Jesus save me!

(Chorus):

If Jesus saves -- well, He'd better save Himself

From the gory glory seekers who use His name in death

Yeah, really. Not a lot of _____ ____ fans here.

Okay, final verse:

I saw him in the city

And on the mountains of the moon

His cross was rather bloody

He could hardly roll His stone

Oh Jesus save me!

Chorus

Nobody gonna take my car

I'm gonna race it to the ground

Oh, never mind. This is the song. Turn it up as loud as you possibly can, get your air guitar ready, and enjoy. This is what I call "asbestos suit" rock.

BTW, I nailed the vocals to this song (studio version) while playing "Rock Band" with the kids. :B)

Aw nuts. I can remember the artist and the album, but not which song it is. If I remember correctly, this lp set a record for most number of consecutive weeks on the BillBoard Top 100.
