Please don't bury me
Down in that cold cold ground
No, I'd druther have "em" cut me up
And pass me all around
Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size
Give my stomach to Milwaukee
If they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box
Just get "em" out of here
Venus de Milo can have my arms
Look out! I've got your nose
Sell my heart to the junkman
And give my love to Rose


Please Don't Bury Me

NY Spread -1.5 for Game -106 R. Johnson must start G. Chacin must start

check out Yank lineup #'s verus Chacin

Johnson 5 earned runs in 20 innings so far this season.
Tor. hitters w/success verus Randy but short # on the run line worth a stab

Saw Prine 3 times .

They were all great shows.The thing w/John was we got to see exacttly were he was in is life by the way he performed..
Man oh Man could that man suck down the alcohol...
Ya hit the nail on the head about his story tellin'.
I listen to some of is real early recording and laugh my ass off...First thing pops in my head is.."damn,he was talking about me and I hadn't even gotten to that stage in my life yet"
Man is scary wise...and oh so wise beyond his years at the time.

Limewire has a few songs if your interested..


here is one of his best IMHO

Me and Loretta, we don't talk much more,
She sits and stares through the back door screen.
And all the news just repeats itself
Like some forgotten dream that we've both seen.
Someday I'll go and call up Rudy,
We worked together at the factory.
But what could I say if asks "What's new?"
"Nothing, what's with you? Nothing much to do."
