I’m listening to Perry Como right now and Tennessee Ernie Ford is queued to follow. How far have we gotten away from these TROUBADOURS and we are the worse for it!

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

[boxlunch]

That sounds wonderful! I agree, wish we could bring that music ( and life) back!

I’ve got plenty to be thankful for
I haven’t got great big yacht
To sail from shore to shore
Still I’ve got plenty to be thankful for

I’ve got plenty to be thankful for
No private car, no caviar
No carpet on my floor
Still I’ve got plenty to be thankful for

I’ve got eyes to see with, ears to hear with
Arms to hug with, lips to kiss with
Someone to adore

How could anybody ask for more?
My needs are small, I buy ‘em all
At the five and ten cent store
Oh, I’ve got plenty to be thankful for

I’ve got eyes to see with, ears to hear with
Arms to hug with, lips to kiss with
Someone to adore

How could anybody ask for more?
My needs are small, buy ‘em all
Five and ten cent store
Oh, I’ve got plenty to be thankful for

I’m thankful we knew America at it’s best. We really had an idyllic childhood, didn’t we?

[boxlunch]

Yes, we were very very blessed. Some comments there are from young people who are so hungry for that life, but hardly believe it really existed.

Thanks for the link. This Westbrook fellow sure does have quite the collection of vintage tunes compiled on his Youtube page.

Great stuff!

I’m thankful we knew America at it’s best. We really had an idyllic childhood, didn’t we?

I thank God that I was able to spend my childhood in the years when California was a Red state and Cuba was a US ally and not in 2020-2021.
