Favorite Zevon opening lyric: I went home with a waitress, the way I always do; (Lawyers, Guns and Money) I'd put it in the top 25.

The song Your thinking of is Carmelita,Also, Poor ,Poor, Pitiful me. it was done by linda ronstadt in the 70's and redone by Terri Clark in the 90'sAnyway one of the all time best songwriters if your feeling adventurous,also check out Townes van Zant, Billy Joe Shaver, or Joe Ely

Is...is there supposed to be something significant to this lyric? Like...in context maybe? Because it makes no sense...
Someone explain to me why it's supposed to be so great, please?

Don't feel too bad! I never got it, either. It makes no sense, and is rather annoying. I don't remember hearing any of the other tunes mentioned getting radio play, just this one, which I always thought was kind of dumb.

This is an awesome song but the best lyrics in the song is the verse, "little old lady got mutalated late last night...Werewolves of london again."

Warren Zevon WAS a true genius...my favorite song has always been, for some reason, "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner," but I suppose this made the list because it's the most famous..."Enjoy Every Sandwich," everybody!!
