A MID-WEEK TUNE...


Note from Michael: Good Morning. You'll need to turn your speakers up for this one, but it sure is worth it. I've even included the lyrics for a "Sing-A-Long" and this song is so well done. I think you'll love it!

Guy Clark is no stranger to my BLOG Page. I've said this before, but it bears a short repeat. I was fortunate enough to catch Guy Clark in concert soon after his Grammy Award Winning CD "Workbench Songs" was released. You could have heard a pin drop in the theater when he played "Magdalene". I was captivated immediately with his lyrical sensibilities.

By the way, my best to Cosmic Crayola who has been in the hospital. I hope you'll drop by her site to send her your love for a speedy recovery.

Magdalene By: Guy Clark

I ain't lookin' for trouble
I can't stay here tonight
I got to leave here on the double
If I want to see the morning light
Don't need no pistol for the tickets
I've got just enough to get us down the line
I don't know what happens next
Your guess is just as good as mine

Chorus

Move with me Magdalene
I'm tired of the same old scene
There's a Greyhound leaving at midnight
If you came with me it'd be like a dream
Come on Magdalene
Move with me Magdalene

Verse

I've heard Mexico is easy
I wouldn't stay here if I could
Don't come along just to please me
Let's go while the going's good

Chorus

Move with me Magdalene
I'm tired of the same old scene
Let's go down to San Miguel
Let's go be somebody else tonight
Come on Magdalene
There's a Greyhound leaving at midnight
If you came with me it'd be like a dream
Come on Magdalene
Move with me Magdalene

That was neat Michael

I remember the sing a long at the movie theaters - just follow the bouncing ball.

Thanks for reminding me about the fun stuff in the old days.
