"It Is Now Post Time."
We're Off..Happy B'Day Dad..(R.I.P.),,There is just one thing I would like to do here today at the Ville..This is a song I sing and strum on the old guitar...I would play it for people then ask them if they knew what it was about, and 9 out of 10 said no.. Then I would tell them and play it again, and they were like, yeah that's good E..So, here goes...
Was an April night and I was right..
I'd been out on the town.
The show was at the palace, we all went on down.
We all had a ball as I recall, but now it seems absurd.
As the madness raged upon the stage he never said a word..
He was a little weird and we all feared he wasn't one of us.
See he didn't drink and he didn't smoke, he didn't even cuss.
You'd see him now and then with a bunch of men, hanging around the sea.
And I'm sure I would have liked him more if he were a little bit more like me...
Was an April day, the sky was gray, looked like it might rain.
When I thought about what we did last night, I was so ashamed.
When I heard what they had done to him, the stranger I had known.
But we all got so drunk last night it is a wonder we got home..
He was a little weird and we all feared he wasn't one of us.
See he didn't drink and he didn't smoke he didn't even cuss.
You'd see him now and then with a bunch of men hanging around the sea.
And I'm sure I would have liked him more if he were a little bit more like me..
Not too many people got that this song was about the happenings of Holy Thursday and Good Friday, and what they did too Christ...Always thought it was a different take than the songs you normally hear..I heard it first performed by Kenny Rogers back in the 70's...Enjoy your day, in whatever way you choose..I will see you tomorrow...
