~Favorite City Songs~





Kings of Leon - Manhattan live

Well
I could dance all night
And some of the day
That's how I play
That's how I play

I say who are you
No matter who you are
So you dance all night
And you dance all day

I say
I say

Gonna build a fire
Gonna smoke it up
Gonna sip this wine
And pass the cup

These avenues and
these reseviors
We gonna show this town
How to kiss these stars

I say
I say

You've come to kill
Gonna spend it high
Your parents grieve
I know they are right

And then talking to you
Well they calm you down
So it's all for you
who let you down

I say
I say
I say
I say

Just wanna take you hand
I'm gonna drive you home
Just gonna keep on
Keep on, keep on
And you gonna have a rest

George Strait - Amarillo By Morning

"Amarillo By Morning"

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone. Everything that I've got is just what I've got on. When that sun is high in that Texas sky I'll be bucking it to county fair. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo I'll be there.

They took my saddle in Houston, broke my leg in Santa Fe. Lost my wife and a girlfriend somewhere along the way. Well I'll be looking for eight when they pull that gate, And I'm hoping that judge ain't blind. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's on my mind.

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone. Everything that I've got is just what I've got on. I ain't got a dime, but what I got is mine. I ain't rich, but Lord I'm free. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's where I'll be. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's where I'll be.

Hiya, Teenie!
I’m doing well, but have had my nose to the grindstone! It’s been hectic at the office, and I’m in the thick of my fund-raising cycle. It takes a lot of work to put on our annual banquet. Well, maybe not so much anymore - this is the 17th year I’ve done this.

Thanks for the memory.

This is about a place called the Windy City, which I assume is Hurricane, Utah, or maybe Galesburg, Ill.

They are. Piper is coming down next month for a week; she likes to just chill with us. Nana will probably try to take her out shopping for clothes for the next school year - Piper may or may not go for that. She hates to shop!

She is taking swim lessons this month, so we’re looking forward to taking her to the city pool. That should be fun!

Piper told her Daddy that she was very sad last week. School was out; but she didn’t want to stop going! She’s excited about going into the third grade in two months.

[oldteen]

Absolutely. WAAAY too young.

Alcohol has taken many good ones. Very sad!

[oldteen]

I don't blame her for hating to shop...lol.

Swim lessons at a young age are the way to go. Mine both had them and became very good swimmers.

I love it when they are so enthusiastic about school. My youngest granddaughter (who is now 21 and in college) needed to be challenged constantly in school. Everything came so easy to her.

[HiJinx]

Same here, and my brother hated me for it.

Gotta call it a night, Teenie - see you!
