I was listening to Bruce Springsteen's song "My Father's House" when I heard this lyric:
"She said 'I'm sorry son but no one by that name lives here anymore'"
 
I swear I've heard this line somewhere else before. Most likely in another song, as an allusion to Springsteen's song.
 
Any ideas?

I tried to think of something, but I couldn't come up with anything except people doing cover versions of Bruce's song. 

 
Did you ever think of what it was? If not, this will serve as a bump...

I never thought of it. Maybe I just heard a cover once and it stuck with me. Thanks though.

Ben Harper once recorded and released a cover of "My Father's House".
