You better buckle up,
cause I'm letting the hammer down.
It's time to shake off the dust,
of this sleeply little town.
Time to grab onto a shooting star passing by,
nows the time for laughter,
no time left to cry.

No time left for yesterday,
yesterday has come and gone.
It's time to turn the page,
let the dog have the bone.

It's time to climb that mountian high,
to sail the seven seas.
Bring along the boxing gloves,
we'll knock em to their knees.

A word spoken from the heart,
is like a wind to the sail of a ship.
It lights a burning fire inside,
it shoots from the hip.

I believe in truth and love,
they are not weak,
but they are strong.
I'll be walking on that path,
your welcome to tag along.

Ah !   LOL   You aint just chasing dust devils, bubba.  I like the path you're on.  Its firm and actually goes somewhere.  A heartfelt thanks for this.  I seemed to be having trouble finding my bootstraps today.  This somehow grabbed them...and pulled me right on up.  Thank you !

is like a wind to the sail of a ship...


And I've always wanted to learn to sail...

Suthern, your one of many here in this magical place that has lit that path for me. I'm not sure who's doing the taggin along and I don't think it matters as long as we can help each other along! :-)

Talk about a candle in the dark Earth Angel! Your a torch honey child! :-)

You think so Cody? :-) I recorded my first song this past Monday. It is called "The Midnight onkey Tonk Queen" being a cousin you may not relate to that but it's a funny song about the hill billy night life.:-) Send me an e-mail if you want to hear it. That goes for anybody on this page!:-)

Hi Tracie, Glad to see your heading in that direction! :-)
