GoodFridayBlues

Talked to JimmyD tonight and he's heading to Vegas in a few weeks to meet up with our buddies Nadia and Gary from London.  That trip should be a big ol' pile of fun. Nadia and Gary's first trip to the states I guess and I hope they have a large time.  We all certainly had a party in Antigua on the Wadadli Cat and after on the patio with rums and cokes and laughs and smiles.  Good times.  JimmyD, buy that boy some catfish!

Seems I've spent the evening talking 'bout lakelizardmusic and life and stuff...on the way home from realwork (yes, it's a realwork weekend--bite my tongue--ok) I had songs and music ramblin' through my head, and I rolled around to a song I wrote years ago...seems appropriate, so hear 'tis:

                 Good Friday Blues

Good morning preacher, good morning to old man river too
Good morning preacher, good morning to old man river too
It's the Friday before Easter
Got them Good Friday blues

People going to church this Sunday, don't you know they're gonna parade
People going to church this Sunday, don't you know they're gonna pray
Even though they have not talked to their God
In 364 days ... (and that's too long)

They'll get up early in the morning, just about sunrise
They'll get up early in the morning, just about sunrise
Get the whiskey off their breath
And the red out of their eyes

Good morning preacher, good morning to the lady in red
Good morning preacher, good morning to the lady in red
Good morning Jesus
Welcome back from the dead.
