Lyrics

Tonight they’re shutting down the borders
And they boarded up the schools
Small towns are rolling up their sidewalks
One last paycheck coming through
I know you’re feeling kind of nervous
We’re all a little bit confused
Nothing’s the same, this ain’t a game
We gotta make it throughAs we wave outside the window
Older loved ones stay inside
Moms and babies blowing kisses
May be saving someone’s life
They had to cancel graduation
It ain’t fair to Skype the prom
Our kids sit home in isolation
TV news is always onWhen you can’t do what you do
You do what you can
This ain’t my prayer, it’s just a thought
I’m wanting to send
‘Round here, we bend but don’t break
Down here, we all understand
When you can’t do what you do
You do what you canThe chicken farm from Arkansas
Bought workers PPE
Not before 500 more
Had succumbed to this disease
Honest men and honest women
Working for an honest wage
I got a hundred point one fever
And we still got bills to payWhen you can’t do what you do
You do what you can
This ain’t my prayer, it’s just a thought
I’m wanting to send
‘Round here, we bend but don’t break
Down here, we all understand
When you can’t do what you do
You do what you canThey built a hospital on East Meadow
In Central Park last night
Doctors, nurses, truckers, grocery store
Clerks manning the front lines
I saw a Red Cross on the Hudson
They turned off the Broadway lights
Another ambulance screams by (screams by)
If by the grace of God, go IAlthough I’ll keep my social distance
What this world needs is a hug
Until we find the vaccination
There’s no substitute for love
So love yourself and love your family
Love your neighbor and your friend
Ain’t it time we loved the stranger
They’re just a friend you ain’t met yet
OhWhen you can’t do what you do
You do what you can (do what you can)
This ain’t my prayer, it’s just a thought
I’m wanting to send
‘Round here, we bend but don’t break
Down here, we all understand
When you can’t do what you do
You do what you can
When you can’t do what you do
You do what you can

Music Monday – You Can Sleep While I Drive by Melissa Etheridge #musicmonday

.

Happy Monday everyone and welcome back to Music Monday! Let’s share some songs we’ve been enjoying lately!  If you would like to play, and I really hope you do, please see the rules and link up below HERE

I love this song and I used to belt it out at The Bayhouse Pub in Daphne, Alabama. My sister and I would get up and sing Karaoke, laughing and dancing all around the place. I love road trips and after I hooked up with Mr Wonderful, I was able to sleep while he drove. LOL

I was very fortunate to be able to see her live and go backstage for an autograph and photos. Hmmmm…I wonder where the photos are now. Have to ask Mr Wonderful, seeing he is the master of our digital archive.

Lyrics

Come on baby let’s get out of this town
I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down
There’s a chill in my bones
I don’t want to be left alone
So baby you can sleep while I drive
I’ll pack my bag and load up my guitar
In my pocket I’ll carry my harp
I got some money I saved
Enough to get underway
And baby you can sleep while I driveWe’ll go thorough Tucson up to Santa Fe
And Barbara in Nashville says we’re welcome to stay
I’ll buy you glasses in Texas a hat from New Orleans
And in the morning you can tell me your dreamsYou know I’ve seen it before
This mist that covers your eyes
You’ve been looking for something
That’s not in your life
My intentions are true
Won’t you take me with you
And baby you can sleep while I driveOh is it other arms you want to
Hold you the stranger
The lover you’re free
Can’t you get that with meCome on baby let’s get out of this town
I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down
If you won’t take me with you
I’ll go before night is through
And baby you can sleep while I drive

Some of my favorite sunglasses have been the cheapest, so when I heard ZZ Top’s name the other day, I thought it is time to share it. I did see them in concert at the New York State Fair when I lived in Rochester. Awesome….

Music Monday – Bruce Springsteen #musicmonday @springsteen

.

Happy Monday everyone and welcome back to Music Monday! Let’s share some songs we’ve been enjoying lately!  If you would like to play, and I really hope you do, please see the rules and link up below HERE

Bruce Springsteen is the only artist that I have stood in line to buy tickets for. It was a cold, rainy day in Michigan and I was soooo excited. I have been watching Trevor Noah on The Daily Show since he began. I am a huge fan of his and loved it when he interviewed Bruce this past week. Bruce also has a new film that I believe airs on AppleTV+.

Bruce talked about Born in the USA and how people had misunderstood what he was saying, so I included the lyrics to the song.

“Born In The U.S.A.”

Born down in a dead man’s town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
You end up like a dog that’s been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering up

Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.

Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
Sent me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man

Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.

Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man says “Son if it was up to me”
Went down to see my V.A. man
He said “Son, don’t you understand”

I had a brother at Khe Sanh fighting off the Viet Cong
They’re still there, he’s all gone

He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms now

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I’m ten years burning down the road
Nowhere to run ain’t got nowhere to go

Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I’m a long gone Daddy in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I’m a cool rocking Daddy in the U.S.A.

It’s weird sometimes how things happen. I was watching Las Vegas reruns the other day and the Black Eyed Peas were on. They sure do make me want to get up and dance.

Music Monday – Chandelier by Sia @Sia #musicmonday

Chandelier by Sia makes me pause every time I hear it on the commercial. I can’t remember the product, but I’m pretty sure it’s some kind of perfume. Funny how the song sticks, but the product doesn’t.
