Lately Van Morrison's Someone Like You has been running through
my head as an "I NEED to hear you do this song" someday

Someone else had the same wish apparently

Thanks Liz that was so nice to watch and Van Morrison is on the tops
of my favorites.

(Words & Music by Fred Rose)

In the twilight glow I see her
Blue eyes crying in the rain
When we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we'd never meet again

Love is like a dying ember
Only memories remain
Through the ages I remember
Blue eyes crying in the rain

Someday when we meet up yonder
We'll stroll hand in hand again
In a land that knows no parting
Blue eyes crying in the rain

Blue eyes crying in the rain
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Blue eyes crying in the rain

Forgive me please...I am bored at work...

LONG TALL GLASSES
(Leo Sayer / David Courtney)


I was travelling down the road feeling hungry and cold
I saw a sign saying food ‘n drinks for everyone
So naturally I thought I would take me a look inside
I saw so much food there was water coming from my eyes
Yeah, there was ham, there was turkey, there was caviar
And long tall glasses with wine up to here
Then somebody grabbed me, threw me out of my chair
Said “before you can eat, you gotta dance like Fred Astaire”
You know I can’t dance, you know I can’t dance…
You know I can’t dance, you know I can’t dance… I can’t dance
Oh no
I am a man of the road, a hobo by name
I don’t seek entertainment, just poultry and game
But if it’s all the same to you, then yes I will try my hand
If you were as hungry as me I’m sure you’d understand.
(Hey, wait a minute)
Of course I can dance, I’m sure I can dance
I know I can dance, I know I can dance
I can dance
I really hit the floor
Look at me dancing
(Solo)
I did a two-step quick-step and a bossa nova
A little Victor Sylvester and a Rudy Valentino
You shoulda seen me moving right across the floor
Hand me down my tuxedo, next week I’m coming back for more
I can dance, oh yes, I can dance
Look at me dancing, the floors moving
And I feel good, I feel good
I can dance, I can dance, I can dance, I can dance
I can

Is that bored as in not busy ?

Or bored as in bored with the pile of crap on your desk ?

If it's the former - - I'll take it ! !

Bored with a pile of crap on my desk...

But the phones are quiet & there haven't been many people around because of the holidays...

I'm just here at the computer with my radio playing songs that make me think.

I guess a lot of us are in the same boat. Quiet here at work too...................

Oh WOW Amy, that song was just sung by Willie Nelson on a Monk rerun. I love that show. They were at Monk's wife Trudy's grave (she had been a big Willie Nelson fan). It was very touching !

Can you imagine Taylor singing it?

Solo - guitar in hand - single spotlight...

If You Want To Get To Heaven
Performed by Ozark Mountain Daredevils
(Steve Cash / John Dillon)

(HARP INTRO)

I never read it in a book
I never saw it on a show
but I heard it in the alley
on a weird radio

If you want a drink of water
you got to get it from a well
If you want to get to heaven
you got to raise a little hell


I never felt it in my feet
I never felt it in my soul
but I heard it the alley
now it's in my rock and roll

If you want to know a secret
you got to promise not to tell
If you want to get to heaven
you got to raise a little hell

(HARP SOLO)

(GUITAR SOLO)

I never thought it'd be so easy
I never thought it'd be so fun
but I heard it in the alley
now I got it on the run

If you want to see an angel
you got to find it where it fell
If you want to get to heaven
you got to raise a little hell

If you want to get to heaven
If you want to get to heaven
If you want to get to heaven
If you want to get to heaven
