Does anyone remember this crazy number?
Well, in eighteen-fourteen we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty mississip
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
And we caught up with the british in the town of New Orleans.

We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began a-runnin'
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

Well we eye-balled the river and we see the limeys come
Musta been a hunderd of 'em beatin' on a drum
And then they stepped so high and they made the bugles ring
We hid behind our cotton bales and didn't say a thing

We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began a-runnin'
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

Now, old hickory says we can take 'em by surprise
If we don't shoot our pistols 'til we look 'em in the eyes
So we held off our fire 'til we see them real well
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and really gave 'em hell

We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began a-runnin'
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

Well, they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go
Ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico.

Well, we fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down
So we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round
We stuffed his head with cannon balls and powdered his behind
And when we lit his tail that old gator blew his mind

We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began a-runnin'
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

Well, they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go
Ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico.

Hup, two, three, four.
You know, you old boys gonna be marchin' right smart, once-n-ya learn to count to four.


I swear, this song makes me giggle every time I hear it since I was a little girl!!! laugh.gif

Got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it till my fingers bled
It was the summer of '69

Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I shoulda known we'd never get far
Oh when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Ya - I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life....

It's Friday

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thurday I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love.

I hadn't heard this song in a few months until it was played on the radio:

"If I had a hammer, I'd hammer in the morning, I'd hammer in the evening all over this land. I'd hammer out 'danger', I'd hammer out a warning, I'd hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters all over this land. If I had a bell I'd ring it in the morning, I'd ring it in the evening..."

You came in from the darkness and held the door open wide
You stood there like a vision before my unbelieving eyes
I believe in what I see and also what I hear
But did the night play tricks on me or were you really there

Always and Forever
Heatwave

Always and forever
Each moment with you is just like a dream to me
That somehow came true
And I know tomorrow will still be the same
Cos' we've got a life of love that won't ever change

And every day love me your own special way
Melt all my heart away with a smile
Take time to tell me you really care
And feel sad tomorrow together
I'll always love you, forever, forever

There'll always be sunshine when I look at you
Something I can't explain, just the things that you do
And if you get lonely, phone me
And take a second to give to me the magic you make

Heard this one on the radio yesterday. No one writes good CB songs anymore:

Well we laid a strip fer the Jersey Shore
An' prepared to cross the line
I could see the bridge 'as lined with bears
But I didn't have a doggone dime
I sez Pig-Pen, this here's the Rubber Duck
We just ain't a gonna pay no toll
So we crashed the gate doin' ninety-eight
I sez, let them truckers roll, 10-4

Cause we gotta mighty convoy, rockin' through the night
Yeah we gotta mighty convoy, ain't she a beautiful sight?
Come on an' join our convoy, ain't nothin' gonna git in our way
We're gonna roll this truckin' convoy, cross the USA
Convoy... Convoy...

"Here's the last toast of the evening: Here's to those who still believe. All the losers will be winners, all the givers will receive. Here's to trouble-free tomorrows, may your sorrows all be small. Here's to the losers: bless them all
Sinatra "Here's to the Losers"

I could take it or leave it, but my pet chimp "Bear" goes, well, apesh** if I try to change the channel.

Don't mind me and don't let me ruin your fun with a serious answer.

They say, this town
The star's stay up all night
But I don't know.
Can't see 'em for the glow of the neon lights
And it's a long way from here
To the place where the home fires burn
Well, it's 2000 miles and one left turn

Dear Mom and Dad, please send money
I'm so broke, it ain't funny
But I don't need much, just enough to get me through
Please don't worry, cuz I'm all right
See, I'm playing here at the bar tonight
This town's gonna make our dreams come true
Well, I love you more than anything in the world
Love, Your Baby Girl

Well, black ties, blue skies and a big town
Full of little white lies
Where everybody's your friend
You can never be sure
They'll promise fancy cars and diamond rings
And all sorts of shiny things
But, girl, you'll remember what your knees are for

Dear Mom and Dad, please send money
I'm so broke that it ain't funny
Well I don't need much, just enough to get me through
Please don't worry, cuz I'm all right
See, I'm playing here at the bar tonight
Well, this town is gonna make our dreams come true
Well, I love you more than anything in thew world
Love, Your Babygirl

I know that I'm on my way
Well, I can tell every time that I play
I know it's worth all the dues I pay
When I can write to you and say:

"Dear Mom and Dad, I'll send money
I'm so rich that it ain't funny
Well, it ought to be more than enough to get your through
Please don't worry, cuz I'm all right
See, I'm staying here at the Ritz tonight
What do you know?
We made our dreams come true.

And there are fancy cars and diamond rings
But you know that they don't mean a thing
Well, they all add up to nothing compared to you
Well, remember me in ribbons and pearls
I still love you more than anything in the world
Love, Your Baby Girl
Your Baby Girl
And your dreams come true
*************************
Baby Girl
Sugarland
THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING MY GIRL.
We could not be doing this without you.
Much love and gratitude.
