Your favorite song that tells a story (narrative ballad)

"The Ballad of Gilligan's Island"

"Love Theme From MST3K"

Of those mentioned I would have to say Hurricane and Wreck of The Edmond Fitzgerald would make my list as well, especially if it was a top ten or twenty list.

But if anyone lists Copacabana by Barry Manilow, posts the lyrics and gets that tune stuck in my head I will hunt you down, I swear.:rant:

What about Pinball Wizard? I thought the story about the deaf, dumb and blind kid with his disciples leading him in to play pinball was a cool song as was the whole rock opera, Tommy.
