Rock and Roll Girls

Sometimes I think life is just a rodeo,
The trick is to ride and make it to the bell.
But there is a place, sweet as you will ever know,
In music and love, and things you never tell.
You see it in their face, secrets on the telephone,
A time out of time, for you and no one else.

Chorus:
Hey let’s go all over the world,
Rock and roll girls, rock and roll girls.

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

If I had my way, I’d shuffle off to buffalo;
Sit by the lake, and watch the world go by.
Ladies in the sun, listenin’ to the radio,
Like flowers on the sand, a rainbow in my mind.

Chorus
Chorus
Chorus

Yeah, yeah yeah!

Great sax tune

Blue Jean-I just met me a girl named Blue Jean

Blue Jean-she got a camouflaged face and no money
Remember they always let you down when you need 'em

Oh, Blue Jean - is heaven any sweeter than Blue Jean
She got a police bike
She got a turned up nose

Sometimes I feel like
(Oh, the whole human race)
Jazzin' for Blue Jean
(Oh, and when my Blue Jean's blue)
Blue Jean can send me
(Oh, somebody send me)
Somebody send me
(Oh, somebody send me)

One day I'm gonna write a poem in a letter
One day I'm gonna get that faculty together
Remember that everybody has to wait in line
Blue Jean-look out world you know I've got mine
She got Latin roots
She got everything

Fattening Frogs For Snakes

Fattening Frogs For Snakes

from
The Essential Sonny Boy Williamson (Chess/MCA 9343)

It took me a long time to find out my mistakes
Took me a long time to find out my mistakes

But I bet you my bottom dollar I'm not fattenin' no more frogs for snakes
I found out my downfall back in nineteen and thirty eight
I started checkin'
I found out my downfall from nineteen and thirty eight
I'm tellin' all of my friends I'm not fattenin' no more frogs for snakes
All right now
Yeah it is nineteen and fifty-seven I've got to correct all of my mistakes
Whoa man nineteen and fifty-seven I've got to correct all of my mistakes
I'm tellin' my friends includin' my wife and everybody else
not fattenin' no more frogs for snakes

Sonny's Dream: Ron Hynes

Sonny's Dream
(Ron Hynes)

Sonny lives on a farm on a wide open space
Where you can take off your sneakers and give up the race
You could lay down your head by a sweet river bed
But Sonny always remembers what it was his Mama said

Sonny carries a load though he's barely a man
There ain't all that to do, still he does what he can
And he watches the sea from a room by the stairs
And the waves keep on rollin', they've done that for years

cho: Oh, Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone
And your daddy's a sailor who never comes home
And the nights get so long and the silence goes on
And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong

And it's a hundred miles to town, Sonny's never been there
And he goes to the highway and stands there and stares
And the mail comes at four and the mailman is old
Oh, but he still dreams his dreams full of silver and gold

Sonny's dreams can't be real, they're just stories he's read
They're just stars in his eyes, they're just dreams in his head
And he's hungry inside for the wide world outside
And I know I can't hold him though I've tried and I've tried

Oh, Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone
And your daddy's a sailor who never comes home
And the nights get so long and the silence goes on
And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong

Broken Bells - The High Road: For those who miss playing pong?

Broken Bells - The High Road

We're bound to wait all night.
She's bound to run amok.
Invested enough in it anyhow,
To each his own...

The Garden needs sorting out.
She curls her lips on the bow,
And I don't know if I'm dead or not,
To anyone...

Come on and get the minimum,
Before you open up your eyes.
This army has so many heads,
To analyze...

Come on and get your overdose.
Collect it at the borderline,
And they want to get up in your head...

Cause they know and so do I.
The high road is hard to find.
A detour to your new life.
Tell all of your friends goodbye.

The dawn to end all nights,
That's all we hoped it was.
A break from the warfare in your house,
To each his own...

A soldier is bailing out.
He curled his lips on the barrel.
And I don't know if the dead can talk,
To anyone...

Come on and get the minimum.
Before you open up your eyes.
This army has so many hands,
Are you one of us?

Come on and get your overdose.
Collect it at the borderline,
And they want to get up in your head...

Cause they know and so do I.
The high road is hard to find.
A detour to your new life.
Tell all of your friends goodbye.

It's too late to change your mind,
You let loss be your guide.

It's too late to change your mind,
You let loss be your guide.

It's too late to change your mind,
You let loss be your guide.

It's too late to change your mind,
You let loss be your guide.

Hello Love

Hello Love sung by Hank Snow (written by Aileen Mnich and Betty Jean Robinson)

Well, look who's comin' through the door
I think we've met somewhere before. hello love, hello love
Where in the world have you been so long
I've missed you so since you've been gone, hello love, hello love.

Make yourself feel right at home
I hope you plan on staying long, come in love, come in love
I must say I was sure surprised
You're the last thing I expected by, hello love, hello love.

I've heard it said time and again
You often go back where you've been
I really didn't believe it was true
But I left the door unlocked for you.

I'll try to please you in every way
Assure you of a pleasant stay this time love, this time love
I've been so blue since you've been gone
Now you're back with me and nothing's wrong, hello love, hello love.

--- Instrumental ---

I've heard it said time and again
You often go back where you've been
I really didn't believe it was true
But I left the door unlocked for you.

And it's wonderful now you're back with me
And things are like they used to be, remember love, remember love
You're back with me now and my world's complete
So don't mind me if I repeat, hello love, hello love, hello love, hello love...

Ducks and the Deep Hole

The Deep Hole

Two guys are walking down a road when they come across a deep hole beside it. Being curious, they go over and check it out. When they look down, they are surprised to find they can't see the bottom. So they drop a couple of rocks down the hole and listen... Nothing. One of them says, "Man, that's a deep hole!"

Thinking they might hear something larger hit the bottom, they find a big, old cinder block and pitch it over the side. The pause and listen intently... They hear a sound, but it is coming from behind them! They quickly turn around to see a goat bearing down on them with it head lowered, flying along, its feet barely touching the ground, its moving so fast!

The two men dive out of its way just in time and the goat plunges past them, into the seemingly bottomless hole, to its doom. The two look at each other and say, "Boy that was close! We'd better get away from this thing before we end up with the goat!".

So they continue on their way down the road until they happen across this farmer working near it. The men again put their heads together and figure that the goat belongs to the farmer and the decide to tell him what happened.

"Hey Mr. Farmer. Do you happen to own a goat?", one of the men asked.

The farmer replies, "Yeah, why do you ask?"

The men then tell what happened at the hole and how they narrowly avoided death in the hole from the speeding goat.

The farmer said, "Well boys, I don't think that was my goat. You see, my goat is really old and crippled up with arthritis. There is no way he could have been moving that fast. Besides, I have him tied to a big, old cinder block."

Amen!

GOD, FOR TODAY, help me to choose wisely in my relationships next time...if there is a next time. Guide me to a relationship where I am free to be myself, warts and all - a relationship where I'm free to have a time out of giving (during a physical illness, a deep grieving over the death of a loved one) without being punished.

I want a relationship where my partner is able to step forward in my time of need to lovingly care for me. I am a good caring person. I deserve to receive the kind of love that I offer. (Lynne Melville)
