~Favorite Song's About Friends~





Tracy Lawrence - Find Out Who Your Friends Are

Oh,
Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere
Or get yourself in a bind lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare

This is where the rubber meets the road
This is where the cream is gonna rise
This is what you really didn't know
This is where the truth don't lie

{Chorus}
You find out who your friends are
Somebody's gonna drop everything
Run out and crank up their car
Hit the gas, get there fast
Never stop to think 'what's in it for me?' or 'it's way too far'
They just show on up with their big old heart
You find out who your friends are

Everybody wants to slap your back
wants to shake your hand
when you're up on top of that mountain
But let one of those rocks give way then you slide back down look up
and see who's around then

This ain't where the road comes to an end
This ain't where the bandwagon stops
This is just one of those times when
A lot of folks jump off

{Chorus}

When the water's high
When the weather's not so fair
When the well runs dry
Who's gonna be there?

{Chorus}

You find out who your friends are
(yeah, yeah)
You find out who your friends are

Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere
(Well man, I've been there)
Or get yourself in a bind lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare
(Man, I've been there)

Man, I've been there
Oooh yeah.

Shania Twain - Come On Over (Dallas)

Get a life-get a grip
Get away somewhere, take a trip
Take a break-take control
Take advice from someone you know
Come on over-come on in
Pull up a seat-take a load off your feet
Come on over-come on in
You can unwind-take a load off your mind

Make a wish-make a move
Make up your mind-you can choose
When you're up-when you're down
When you need a laugh come around

Come on over-come on in
Pull up a seat-take a load off your feet
Come on over-come on in
You can unwind-take a load off your mind

Oh, oh, oh...

Be a winner-be a star
Be happy to be who you are
Gotta be yourself-gotta make a plan
Gotta go for it while you can

Come on over-come on in
Pull up a seat-take a load off your feet
Come on over-come on in
You can unwind-take a load off your mind

Get a life-get a grip
Get away somewhere, take a trip
Take a break-take control
Take advice from someone you know

Come on over-come on in
Pull up a seat-take a load off your feet
Come on over-come on in
You can unwind-take a load off your mind

Oh, oh, oh...

This song is a downer--about a girl who watches her boyfriend die of a drug overdose. The melody should be familiar to followers of Top 40 radio in 1971.

An evil threesome:

1942 Turkey in the Staw--Carson Robison

[Tanniker Smith]

Checking in from Brooklyn. The Smith family is all safe and sound. We were one of the lucky ones. No flooding, no power loss, no massive tree damage. We lost some siding in one section. The new roof sailed through like a charm.

We put up a couple of relatives for a couple of days (as did my sister), so I didn't work at a shelter like I was planning to. It's just as well. Although those 12-hour shifts at the "per session" rate in the UFT contract would've added up, I probably would've wound up sleeping at the shelter Monday night instead of coming home, leaving my wife alone with the kids and my relatives, and some loose siding. Not an ideal situation.

Some of my friends weren't so lucky. Some lost power, some lost cars and a lot of "stuff". At this point, as long as everyone's safe, the rest is just "stuff". Best way to think of it.

I've been in contact, making sure they're okay, and seeing if they need anything. Hey, looking after each other -- "That's What Friends Are For"

(Can I go full circle, back to the thread's theme, or what?)
