Pretty Saro by Tradional 18th century

Well my love she won't have me
So I understand
She wants a freeholder
Who owns a house and land
I cannot maintain her
With silver and gold
And all of the fine things
That a big house can hold

And even though we ain’t got money
I’m so in love with ya honey
And everything will bring a chain of love
And in the mornin’ when I rise
Bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be all right

i didn’t see this one yet. a depression era classic (Jo Stafford):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEy84Z0jE04

the Fields website, https://dorothyfields.org/song_sunnyside.htm, says hardly any one starts with the verse,

Walked with no-one and talked with no-one,
And I had nothing but shadows.
Then one morning you passed
And I brightened at last.
Now I greet the day, and complete the day,
With the sun in my heart.
All my worry blew away
When you taught me how to say

and then the glorious pickup for the hardest of times....

Grab your coat, and get your hat!

[E.G.C.]

A very pleasant good Friday morning and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country and thanks Fatima for this morning's thread.

Yesterday morning at Chisolm Trail Park:

It actually took me several minutes to undo two knots on Gizmo's leash because he had me going through all of those tree stumps. He really is a stinker.((LOL))

We will do another early trip to the lake today due to Heat Advisory.

How's it going for everyone this morning?

Above is a live version from their later years - maybe the Time Machine Tour in 2011. The song would have been 26 years old at that point! They were such a great live show.
