"Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I'm ten years burning down the road
Now here to run ain't got nowhere to go"

52 Weeks of Musc: Week 16

Down On the Corner by Creedence Clearwater Revival



Down on the Corner by Creedence Clearwater Revival

"You don't need a penny just to hang around,
But if you got a nickel, won't ya lay your money down?
Over on the corner there's a happy noise.
People come from all around to watch the magic boy."

52 Weeks of Music: Week 15

But Not For Me by Curtis Stigers
But Not For Me by U2

"They're writing songs of love,
but not for me.
The lucky star's above,
but not for me.
With love to lead the way,
I've found more skies of gray..."

Blast from the Past: Tricycle

I was looking through a few old family albums and I found a few polaroids of me. Here is one of me on what I am assuming is my tricycle. I don't remember this at all. Look at my shoes!!!

My first (I think my only) tricycle (1967)

There are a few things I do remember from the Philippines, this is not one of them.

52 Weeks of Music: Week 14

The Middle of Nowhere by George Strait
The Middle of Nowhere by George Strait

"Standin' at the edge of the sky
On top of a mountain so tall
Wishing to God I could fly
When I ain't even done climbing the wall

Could you help me let the
teardrops roll
Awe anything to cleanse my soul
Or if you've got a single raindrop to spare
Lord I'm out in the middle of nowhere"
