Well The Kid and me were the team to beat We could stand up to the big boys, generate some heat and we never thought nothin' about livin on the streat back then.
Yes sir, we lied a little, and we maybe stole some sayin "Southern CA here we come" and we took off down the highway sayin' never goin' back again Chorus: It was on the first day of summer we were the number one outfront runner On the first day of summer nothin feels the same and it feels so good It was on the first day of summer It was on the first day of summer On the first day of summer the whole world knows your name and it feels so good
Now the kid was drivin and I rode shotgun we were splittin up the money from our number ones
beatin' time to the radio Yes I'm gonna be someone
Campin' by the road out in Santa Fe The kid stole the keys and he drove away I wound up washin' dishes at a a Holiday Inn sometime I wonder what became of him
good-afternoon, hope your week has been going well. we have been having the most beautiful days lately, been spending alot of time in my garden, my happy place. take care and have a lovely day...hugs..mk
I've been doing a little in my greenhouse but I haven't had much success with the heat here this summer. (over 100 all weekend)
I had a patch of watermelon vines that I sprouted from seed but something ate them within days oof sprouting. I still have a couple of sweet pepper plants that are producing and I will get some tomatoes going for the fall run.
This weekend I spent most of my time laying in a kiddie pool in the backyard reading a book!

Bill Horton was a cautious man of the road He walked lookin' over his shoulder and remained faithful to its code When something caught his eye he'd measure his need And then very carefully he'd proceed
Billy met a young girl in the early days of May It was there in her arms he let his cautiousness slip away In their lovers twilight as the evening sky grew dim He'd lay back in her arms and laugh at what had happened to him
On his right hand Billy'd tattooed the word love and on his left hand was the word fear And in which hand he held his fate was never clear Come Indian summer he took his young lover for his bride And with his own hands built her a great house down by the riverside
Now Billy was an honest man he wanted to do what was right He worked hard to fill their lives with happy days and loving night Alone on his knees in the darkness for steadiness he'd pray For he knew in a restless heart the seed of betrayal lay
One night Billy awoke from a terrible dream callin' his wife's name She lay breathing beside him in a peaceful sleep, a thousand miles away He got dressed in the moonlight and down to the highway he strode When he got there he didn't find nothing but road
Billy felt a coldness rise up inside him that he couldn't name Just as the words tattooed 'cross his knuckles he knew would always remain At their bedside he brushed the hair from his wife's face as the moon shone on her skin so white Filling their room in the beauty of God's fallen light
good morning. i hope your week-end was nice. i found out this morning that my niece has contracted this god-awful virus. she is only 19. not sure how she is going to quantine herself, she lives with 5 other people. i guess they will all fiqure it out. just makes me so sad. i sure wish there was something i could do but there is'nt. the young people (as we did) think they are invinceable...suprise! hope your day goes well. finally some really nice weather here, all my windows open...yea! sending hugs and smiles........marykay
They flutter behind you your possible pasts Some bright-eyed and crazy some frightened and lost A warning to anyone still in command Of their possible future to take care In derelict sidings the poppies entwine With cattle trucks lying in wait for the next time
Do you remember me? How we used to be? Do you think we should be closer?
She stood in the doorway the ghost of a smile Haunting her face like a cheap hotel sign Her cold eyes imploring the men in their macs For the gold in their bags or the knives in their backs Stepping up boldly one put out his hand He said, "I was just a child then. Now I'm only a man."
Do you remember me? How we used to be? Do you think we should be closer?
By the cold and religious we were taken in hand Shown how to feel good and told to feel bad Tongue tied and terrified we learned how to pray Now our feelings run deep and cold as the clay And strung out behind us the banners and flags Of our possible pasts lie in tatters and rags
Do you remember me? How we used to be? Do you think we should be closer?
