I said it's great to see you're still in the bars
- The Hold Steady, Barfruit Blues
Maybe you'll be out there on that road somewhere
In some bus or train traveling along
In some motel room there'll be a radio playing
And you'll hear me sing this song
- Bruce Springsteen, Bobby Jean
My first sin was the fear that made me old
- The Gaslight Anthem, The Navesink Blues
In a flash of psychological insight, uncommon for a girl of thirteen, Vic saw that soon enough she would recall all of her trips across the bridge as the fantasies of a very imaginative child and nothing more. Things that had been real . . . would eventually feel like nothing more than daydreams. Without her bike to take her on occasional trips across the Shorter Way, it would be impossible to maintain her belief in a covered bridge that flicked in and out of existence.
- Joe Hill, NOS4A2
You said, I think I'm like Tennessee Williams
I wait for the click, I wait but it doesn't kick in
- The National, City Middle
At 11:32 A.M., Mann passed the truck.
- Richard Matheson, Duel
Raising a glass to Chris Knox, Chris Bateman and Tom Denney, fellow travellers through the Great American Night.
