Emmylou Christmas Quiz

[Mike Rogers]

I've prepared this quiz for your amusement.
This 'song' is made up of lines from Emmylou's own albums.
All you have to do is name the song that each of the lines come from.
Please send me a pm with your answers. DO NOT POST THE ANSWERS ON HERE.
I'll provide the answers and the winner's name after Christmas. No prizes - just the honour of being a smart dude.

We were so young when we met
Raw as a whip but clean as a bone
With such fire in our bellies
He promised that he’d take care of me
I’ll wipe the liquor from your lips
Yes I’m as good as what you’re thinkin’
We both know where we’ll be and what we’ll do tonight
Ain’t no way to act in public.

My life with you’s become a living hell
Good luck and fast bucks are too few and too far between
I can leave you alone if I try
I don’t know who’s right or wrong
You ask me if I’ll find another
You tell me there are more fish in the sea

The ballgame’s all over and she knows she’s lost
The desert’s quiet and Cleveland’s cold
Motel ceiling stares you down
Her chariot is a cross town bus
She sighs ‘baby did you make it all right?’

My blood is on the mountain
Like sunlight dancing on your skin
Come now, there it shines so bright
And the angels turned to ashes
Standing there with broken wings


Tie breaker 1:
Name 6 people who have played fiddle on Emmylou’s albums (there are more than 6)

Tie breaker 2:
How many cars has Emmylou mentioned on her albums? (Makes/models and numbers)

Again Craig, No respect!

[Renee]

You know what Craig, I think you forgot to take your medicine. It is ok for one person to take the time to answer the quiz, it is not ok for someone else to answer the quiz, and you must be to lame to answer the quiz yourself. Could it be that you are a D... A...? As you stated early, have RESPECT, although, I find it impossible to have that for you.

Stop fighting on my quiz thread people!

As of this minute only two people have sent me answers. I guess others may find time over the holidays
but if not I won't bother another year.

Mike, is the answer, Yellow?

Seriously, I'll have a go over the Christmas break but I'm working Boxing Day, so might not manage to check every bloody album sleeve, inner sleeve, CD booklet etc. before then.

And everybody, please stop picking on Craig, he's not a well man and it is the season to be jolly afterall.

I love quizzes like this, but am very disappointing at this one. I thought I knew A LOT of Emmylou song lyrics, but at first glance I can only guess about 6 or 7!!!!! Shame on me (well at least I admit it :)
