I don't know if there's an easier way, but I usually filter the
buffer through ``cat -n'' and copy the resulting numbered lines
that I need.

	M-< M-> C-u M-| cat -n RET

	;; beginning-of-buffer
	;; end-of-buffer
	;; prefix , shell-command-on-region "cat -n"

When a prefix is passed to it (even an empty prefix), the
shell-command-on-region command runs the shell command, passing
the region as plain text input to it, and then replaces the
region with the output of the shell command.
