This almost makes sense...

[ramblin_rosie]

Having used LAUNCHcast for this, I fudged a bit (left out instrumentals and a handful of new songs I don't know and don't care for) and went with Fondy's 25-song version, and it *almost* works as a real poem. :D See if you can place the lines!
EDIT: Just discovered that I missed one.

Put your MP3 player on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first twenty songs. Post the poem that results. The first line of the twenty-first is the title.

So Hard to Love You

Lay down your sweet and weary head.
Many a tear has to fall.
Love, love me, darling,
Lollipop, lollipop, oh, lolli, lolli, lolli.
You think you’re alone there in your silent storm.

I worship You, Almighty God.

Well, I saw my baby walking.
(How old d’ya say your sister was?)
These arms of mine,
A winter’s day...
You think you’re so way out.

People, get ready, there’s a train a-comin’.

Stop in the name of love!
Uptown’s got its hustlers,
Oh, see, See See Rider.
It makes no difference where you come from.
I got a girl named Bony Maronie.

When this old world starts getting me down,
There’s a place up ahead and I’m goin’;
Puff the magic dragon lived by the sea.
Heart and soul I fell in love with you,
You got a smile so bright.

All of You is more than enough for all of me.
You are Lord of creation and Lord of my life.

Baby, everything is all right.
