OK Ron - I'll keep this one short...and short.
Clue:
Q242 - .... in my shoes
Ron's reply to song:
Boss Man - ~gl Correct ! I wonder of you got it from the first or 2nd clue ? - the carbide lamp I figured would give it away as a miner's song for sure.
If a person ever came across or read of such older brass doo-dads as a carbide-lamp, add water to carbide pellets, and poof - there go burnable gasses.
Mende won Silver on this one, as it
did sound like
'Carefree Highway' in clue one, 'cept for down to my shoes versus in my shoes.... I'd of guessed the same one off the top of my head, I think !

SQ1 Story clue - Remains unsolved
2nd clue Solve it by rhyme or
reason . And -..... in shades of twilight 1st clue:
He still sort of loves her, but wants her to be happy moreso than necessarily love him, if she needs him at a certain time of day , he'll be there for her, but if for any reason she wants him to leave, he'll be on a train outta there. - Ron gave a good crack at it with
'If You Need Me' but... its got to have a train in it..... see 2nd clue(s)
NOTE: -The first two story clues went well enough, but I can see great ambiguity in story clues; less fun maybe. I'll drop 'em if you guys want to ?
