PastaJoe Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Was ridin' along side the highway,Rollin' up the countryside.Thinkin' I'm the devil's heatwave,What you burn in your crazy mind?Saw a slight distractionStandin' by the road.She was smilin' there, yellow in her hair."Do you wanna, " I was thinkin', "would you care?" Sweet hitch-a-hiker,We could make music at the Greasy King.Sweet hitch-a-hiker,Won't you ride on my fast machine? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life Never make a pretty woman your wife So for my personal point of view Get an ugly girl to marry you A pretty woman makes her husband look small And very often causes his downfall As soon as he married her and then she starts To do the things that will break his heart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Into the distance a ribbon of black Stretched to the point of no turning back A flight of fancy on a windswept field Standing alone my senses reeled A fatal attraction is holding me fast how How can I escape this irresistible grasp? Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Tongue tied and twisted just an earth bound misfit, I Ice is forming on the tips of my wings Unheeded warnings I thought I thought of everything No navigator to find my way home Unladened, empty and turned to stone A soul in tension that's learning to fly Condition grounded but determined to try Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
