~Favorite "Home" Songs~




*Metallica- Welcome Home (Sanitarium)*



Welcome to where time stands still
No one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to change
Just labeled mentally deranged
Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, no windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred

Sleep my friend and you will see
That dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cage
Can’t they see it’s why my brain says rage

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Build my fear of what’s out there
And cannot breath the open air
Whisper things into my brain
Assuring me that I’m insane

They think our heads are in their hands
But violence use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him well
He’s getting better, can’t you tell ?

No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it well
But they think this saves us from our hell

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Fear of living on
Natives getting restless now
Mutiny in the air
Got some death to do
Mirror stares back hard
Kill, it’s such a friendly word
Seems the only way
For reaching out again



*Marc Broussard - Home*



Rolling down the road
Going no where, guitar packed in the trunk
Somewhere around mile marker 112
Papa started humming the funk
I gotta Jones in my bones
Before I know, we be singing this melody
Stop the car, pull out the guitar
Halfway to New Orleans

Said take me home, home, home, home
Take me home, home, home, home

Could feel sun about to rise
When I realized we had nothing to fear
Just me and my daddy and a kid named Cole
Playing music that nobody could hear
And then the sun let up and it split the night
Spilling over our jubilee
10,000 cars by the side of the road
Grooving far as the eye can see

Said take me home, home, home, home
Take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home

This greyhound is delta bound mama
Baby boy done finally found
Said this greyhound is delta bound mama
Baby boy done finally found his way home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home

Here we go

Hot damn you should've felt the groove
Like I was swimming in a sea of soul
The sun was rising and the day was hot
And we was all about to loose control
My daddy turned his face up towards the sky
And I knew that there was nothing to loose
I felt the crowd breathe in and I closed my eyes
And we disappeared into the groove

Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home

Straight from the water
Straight from the water children
Straight from the water
Straight from the water children
Straight from the water
Straight from the water children
Straight from the water
You don't know nothing about this

Take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home


Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home
Said take me home
Take me home
Said take me home
Said take me home



*Kansas - Nobody's Home*

It's empty now, no friendly face
And nothing lives within
I look around and I find no trace
To tell me what has been

So far I've come to find
There's no one here, no life I fear
I came for nothing, they have gone
And nobody's home, no one's home

I came to learn, perhaps to teach
But I can tell somehow
The world that I was sent to reach
Has got no future now

Across the galaxy to spread the word
And no one heard
I came for nothing, I'm alone
And nobody's home, no one's home

A requiem was never sung
No elegy was read
No monument was carved in stone
In memory of the dead

For those who made this place
Do not remain, they feel no pain
A stranger fate was never known

Remember Stringbean?

Yep, I surely do. One of my favorite claw hammer banjo players bested only by Grandpa Jones...maybe...its too close to call.

I have read all there is to read on the subject of Stringbean's murder, hard to believe it will be 40 years ago next year when it took place. It still puts a lump in my throat at times.

Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning to our

Thank you, Connie, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.
Gotta check out all the choices.
And check to see if I can find one of mine...

Time To Go Home by Mike Zito
(live Blues on the Square in Lansing, Mi.)

Time for me to make my rounds.
But, you stay right where you are.
Don't leave the room...cause...I'll be bock!

Remember, the Canteen is ALWAYS

Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM

Pepe must have been down the golf course quite a way last night. I saw a dead one the other evening while working, plus a couple of live ones.

We have one Pepe that likes to come into our back yard. I have been tossing moth balls into the shrubs and it seems to keep them out.

Happy, Lucky Friday the 13th Beachie!!

Week just flew by for me! Nice summer weather continues, so the air-conditioning remains on!

Probably will hit the beach a few more times before summer ends to beat the August heat, but for this weekend, not much happening.

I hope your weekend is cooldocious!

Good morning, Pro ((HUGS))

Our weather is the same, although we’ve had a nice breeze to keep in mild.

Going to give it my best shot at getting to the pool tomorrow but it’s always a toss up.

Friday the 13th is a lucky day for me...met my husband on one.

Have both kiddies gone off to school yet?

Have a fun-de-mittle, fantabulous, FRiday.
