I prefer Pepsi, myself
This post makes me a bit sad. This post pushes the final entry of my India series off the front page of this blog. I guess what they say about life and time is true. Life moves on. Time does not stand still, it waits for no one.
Damnit.
And here am I, sitting here, blogging, feeling lazy and listening to Hank Williams: "On the day we met, I went astray. I started down that lone highway."
"You gonna change or I'm gonna leave..."
"This ain't right and that is wrong, you just keep nagging all the day long..."
"The way to keep a woman happy, make her do what's right is love her every morning, bawl her out at night..."
And not only that, "There's a tear in beer, 'cause I'm crying for you dear..."
"Praise the Lord, I saw the light..."
"Hear that lonesome whippoorwill, he sounds too blue to fly, that midnight train is whining low. I'm so lonesome I could cry...
"The moon just went behind the cloud to hide its face and cry..."
Damn! That guy was good!
I think I'll go drink a Pepsi now.
A breakfast Pepsi.
I jokes. It's midnight, but I'm not going to post this until breakfast time.
"Well there ain't no use of me working so hard, when I've got a woman in the bossman's yard. Yea, my bucket's got a hole in it, I can't buy no beer..."
"Why do we stay together, we always fuss and fight. You ain't never been known to be wrong and I ain't never been right..."
"I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by, got to the river so lonesome I wanted to die, Oh Lord, and then I jumped in the river but the doggone river was dry..."
Damn, that guy was good!
And here's some kids getting off a school bus:
"Why don't you love me like you used to do, how come you treat like a worn out shoe, my hair's still curly and my eyes are still blue..."
"Today I passed you on the street and my heart fell at your feet. I can't help it if I'm still in love with you..."
You got me chasing rabbits, walking on my hands and howling at the moon.... oooowwwooooo... There ain't a hounddog in this state that can hold a bone to me...."
"There's a tear in my beer because I'm crying for you dear... last night I walked the floor and the night before, you were on my lonely mind... I'm gonna keep drinking ''til I can't a move a toe, and then maybe my heart won't hurt me so..."
Damn. Playlist just ended.
Guess I'll switch to Jimmy Hendrix now:
"After all the jacks are in the boxes and the clowns have all gone to bed, you can hear happiness staggering on Down Street, footprints dressed in red.
"And the wind whispers 'Mary'....."
Damn!
That guy was good!
Can't go to bed now... not while Jimmy's singing and guitaring...
"Angel came down from heaven yesterday, she stayed just long enough to rescue me and she told me a story about the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea..."
"Somewhere a king has no wife and the wind, it cries...
'Mary'..."
Can't go to bed now. Not while Jimmy's guitaring and singing...
"and my angel she said unto me, today is the day for you to rise..."
"...acting funny, but I don't know why, 'scuze me while I kiss the sky! Purple haze...
...is it tomorrow, or just the end of time?"

What ever you post is B e a u t i f u l. Thanks for being around, it was a very special moment having you here. Love you.
I know what you mean, music and lyrics can mean a heck of a lot. Playing 'Dark Side of the Moon' at the moment.
Lovely! :)
You always have lots to make me think.....
I prefer Pepsi as well, when the wind whispers Mary.
I don't know why, but this post made me cry. Chest heaving cry. They were both good. So are you!
