Music

I was going to write a Country Western Song once.. The title was to be " 20 amongst the 1's.. A guy in a bar getting ready to go home to an empty house casue his woman took his dog and run off.. He goes pay his tab and well... He found a 20 in there..

There have been a few nights where I wish I could have found my 20 amongst the ones. And I don't have a dog .

Oh and then, I had this to do.. Did not have a title for it, so if you can think of one, Please let me know..

She left me flatter than the tires on the car
If I had known she was a leavin
I wouldn't have driven her that far

Always has amazed me how we can relive our youth by just turning on the radio. I can rememebr where i was when I first Heard Black Sabbath's Evil Woman

I can remember sitting in the Starlite Sipping on a pitcher of Annie Green Springs "Plum Hollow" ..Pitcher of wine for $2.50 What a deal.. And with a roll of quarters for the pool table, and maybe 4 pitchers more to go with the quarters.. I had my day planned..
Wille and Waylon's "Luckenback, Texas" was on the juke box.

Music seems so much, But I was wondering. Do readers remember where they were when they first read.. Yadda Yadda Yadda.. Sorry I could not think of a Title of a book for the life of me. Do I look like a reader with thoughts like this ? I am to damn busy trying to keep my sanity.

OK I have read many books, but 99.98888 Of them were read before the age of 21 . I read almost all Shahesphere had written . Could not tell you anything about it today. BUT I can remember what I was listening to as I read it.

What the Hell is it with music. Look at West Side Story. Two gangs in New York City.. And what do they do ? They dance to music. The Sharks and the Jets.. To Music?.. Romero and Julliet would be so proud if they were here.

Look at what they have done to you Bill.. errr Sorry William

Music has power.. Ever watch MTV ? well the old MTV.. Remember when they had videos all day long.. I am sure i am not the only Partially grown man that had wicked thoughts about Paula Abdul and the Video Music... "Straight Up" Any Woman that can move like that.. Oh Never mind.. that was years ago.. I am pretty damn sure I could not move like that even if the house wereon fire.

People thought MTV would ruin Music, I disagree. My Opionon.

Why don't they play music when you are born ? Or maybe they do have music these days.. I mean the ones you get to pick out. After all it is your day. But do you want your child to come out listening to Led Zepplin ?

I mean they play music on your wedding day.. Big Day.. Right ?Guy's ? Guy's ? Pay attention... And they play music and that really big day.. Your death.. Why not birth music. Maybe a Little Beatles " Shake it up Baby "

Wow Just got side tracked was watching Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe.. They were at a worm ranch.. I remember what I was listening to when I had the thought of Worm Ranch ? Worm Rodeo !! Made sense to me.. I could picture the worm coming out of the shoot. Wiggiling from side to side, trying to throw the cricket they place on his back. That would be a small saddle huh ? Have a Grass Hopper as the clown. He could chew tobacco and spit while he waits for the worm.. Maybe take a nap in his barrel.

Any way.. Music always has been an important part of our lives and in some cases was important in helping create who we are today. Can you imiagine how much better I would be if I had come out of the womb listening to .. Perry Como's " Noodlen Rag " There was not much of a choice back in 52 .

But if I had come out listening to something I like.. Maybe I would not have gone from Shakespeare to a worm ranch in one short lifetime.. And I still have a few years left in me.. I am almost afraid for myself of what I may come up with.

Matthew 15:11 King James Version.
Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

Wonder if that works with music too ? I think music is that strong.. Well God does have his own set of followers that are there in some part for the music. My Opinion.. Rock On My Christian Brothers.

Any way. I think this started out to be a letter but I got to watching TV and well.. The mind does wander.. Typing is kinda like trying to keep your mouth shut. Sometimes they just don't listen. The fingers do it on their own..

Anyway.. Time for bed now.. I guess I will do what it was I was going to do tomorrow when I remember what it was I was going to do. Memory is fading but I still remember the Music..

Music is powerful.... My Opinion
