Gray Beard

Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette Puff puff puff And if you smoke yourself to death Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate That you hate to make him wait But you just gotta have another cigarette

If I’m wandering around a city and I need to go, I have found that public libraries often have decent facilities. That’s my travel tip,of the day.

I'm going back someday Come what may To Blue Bayou Where the folks are fun And the world is mine On Blue Bayou Where those fishing boats With their sails afloat If I could only see That familiar sunrise Through sleepy eyes How happy I'd be

As I look back, I can see me lost and searching. Now I find that I can choose, I'm free. Oh, Yeah! So funny I just have to laugh, All my troubles been torn in half. I been lonely too long. Lonely too long. In the past it's come and gone, I feel like I can't go on without love. Lonely too long I've been lonely too long.

I recorded the show just in case I missed you. It’s a good thing I did, because if I had been watching live I might have missed you if I had blinked. I imagine there was paperwork and all sorts of legal permission forms involved. Pretty cool.

I think I just saw you in the preview. I assume you’re the guy who stood still while they had a crab snap at your nipples.

You can dance Every dance with the guy Who gives you the eye Let him hold you tight You can smile Every smile for the man Who held your hand Beneath the pale moonlight But don't forget who's taking you home And in whose arms you're gonna be So darlin', save the last dance for me

My wife and I recently drove from Utica to Connecticut and back (not on the same day, although we’ve done that in the past). Three hours one way. Usually we stop at a rest area about half way. This time we avoided liquids for a couple hours before the trip to reduce the likelihood that we would have to stop. It worked, no rest stops. Kind of a bummer, because I enjoy sipping on coffee while I drive.

We get it on most every night When that moon is big and bright It's a supernatural delight Everybody was dancin' in the moonlight Everybody here is out of sight They don't bark and they don't bite They keep things loose, they keep things light Everybody was dancing in the moonlight Dancing in the moonlight Everybody's feeling warm and bright It's such a fine and natural sight Everybody's dancing in the moonlight

I thought it was through the nose...

If you change your mind I'm the first in line Honey, I'm still free Take a chance on me If you need me, let me know Gonna be around If you've got no place to go When you're feeling down If you're all alone When the pretty birds have flown Honey, I'm still free Take a chance on me Gonna do my very best And it ain't no lie If you put me to the test If you let me try Take a chance on me

A character that lives on in American culture. Right up there with Darth Vader and the Wizard of Oz. People who don’t know much about the show still know who Eddie Haskell is. RIP

I see you on the street and you walk on by You make me want to hang my head down and cry If you gave me half a chance you'd see My desire burning inside of me But you choose to look the other way I've had to work much harder than this For something I want don't try to resist me Open your heart to me, baby I hold the lock and you hold the key Open your heart to me, darlin' I'll give you love if you, you turn the key

My love is yours, baby Oh, right from the start You, you, you possess my soul now honey And I know, I know you won my heart. And I wanna say someday we'll be together.

And if you want love We'll make it Swim in a deep sea Of blankets Take all your big plans And break 'em This is bound to be a while Your body is a wonderland

And love lies bleeding in my hand Oh it kills me to think of you with another man I was playing rock and roll and you were just a fan But my guitar couldn't hold you So I split the band Love lies bleeding in my hands

You wake up late for school, man you don't want to go You ask you mom, please? but she still says, no You missed two classes, and no homework But your teacher preaches class like you're some kind of jerk You gotta fight for your right to party

I have climbed the highest mountains I have run through the fields Only to be with you Only to be with you I have run I have crawled I have scaled these city walls These city walls Only to be with you But I still haven't found What I'm looking for But I still haven't found What I'm looking for

Cowboys to girlsI remember when I used to play shoot 'em up(Shoot 'em up, bang, bang baby)I remember when I chased the girls and beat 'em upBut I was young and didn't understandBut now I'm a grown up manI know girls are made for kissingNever knew what I was missingNow my life is not the sameMy whole world has been rearrangedI went from cowboy to girlsOh yes I did

It's all the same, only the names will change Everyday, it seems we're wastin' away Another place where the faces are so cold I drive all night just to get back home I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive Wanted dead or alive

Get a haircut and get a real job Clean your act up and don't be a slob Get it together like your big brother bob Why don't you get a haircut and get a real job I even tried that 9 to 5 scene I told myself that it was all a bad dream I found a band and some good songs to play And now I party all night, I sleep all day

I'm back in the saddle again Out where a friend is a friend Where the longhorn cattle feed On the lowly jimson weed I'm back in the saddle again Ridin' the range once more Totin' my old .44 Where you sleep out every night And the only law is right Back in the saddle again Whoopi-ty-aye-oh Rockin' to and fro Back in the saddle again

As soon as you are able Woman I am willing To make the break that we Are on the brink of My cup is on the table Our love is spilling Waiting here for you to Take and drink of So if you're tired of the Same old story Oh, turn some pages I'll be here when you are ready To roll with the changes
