47th Word

The following is a list of the opening lines of books, songs, and poems.

Your job is to figure out what the source of the line is, and to provide us with the 47th word of that source, be it book, song, or poem. If you come across a hyphenated word in a book or poem (such as by-product), treat it as 2 words. Contractions (won't, can't) are one word. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE CREDIT FOR THE SOURCE WITHOUT THE CORRECT 47th WORD!! You need not even provide us with the name of the source, just the 47th word will be sufficient. GOOD LUCK!!

*1 (Long Tall Texan): The lyrics involve call-and-response backup singing; counting that, the 47th word is "look." Although in fact, "giddy" and "up" should be 2 words, not one. Also, not all versions of this western chestnut include the opening "giddy up"s.

*2 (Pencil-Thin Mustache): If, as the instructions indicate you must, you consider "pencil-thin" as two words.

*3 (The Trial): Errrr.... pinpointing the 47th word kinda depends on which English translation you're using. Pick 'em.

*4 (Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys): Alas, the song does NOT begin with the "opening" words listed in the Hour Bonus. From the point in the song where the bonus' line is taken from, the 47th word is "young." The song's actual 47th word, however, is "even." The lyrics should read "harder," not "hard," though this does not affect the word count.

*5 (Copacabana): If, as the instructions indicate you must, you consider "cha-cha" as two words. Well, we concede that a one-legged man could do the cha.

*6 (no title): You are free to read the collected works of Dorothy L. Sayers to identify which two of her opening lines are listed in this bonus. We have chosen not to.

*7 (My Funny Valentine): If, as the instructions indicate you must, you consider "dim-witted" as two words.

*8 (no title): See #6.
