Another of stuff I keep finding Last posting, I need to look at earning money Dave Tumbleweed - edited changed and will be re-written I look over my shoulder A donkey, a One Horse Town Feet on my desk Makes a change it’s just brown And their mine for a change My life maybe re-arrange Wind coming in dry again Woman following Can I deny again Why don’t you leave gal Go somewhere that has some meaning for you Sal I’m no use to you Two guns on my hip My life on one slip And you dead in my bed Find a highbrow Find a lowbrow Find a good bell That doesn’t ring Hell This badge rings It might as well be tin Find a good man Sal My horse is my only Pal Door swept the room Sucking away the gloom I left by the shack There was no looking back The peace of night is my old friend I walk a lonely march No-one hears me move I don’t take any chance I head for the mountain Miles and miles away Away from the shadows Away from the rest of my day If they spread me out What else do I care Making their claims on my body Taking away my hair What do my people do That is different to that |

The wallet as usual is always up for grabs and the Government always there. The hair is still there however but nonsense does stop you getting to big headed or thinking that all poems must have a darkened room and be of tragedy Which would be a dark tragedy Dave |

Thanks James I liked writing the song of a supposed Coward, who when no-one would help him just a woman in love, ran to save his love; for a woman, who, he didn't and couldn't plan a life with, even if she disagreed Dave |

Thanks Paul TRhe rights of the coward legging it, providing he never lets anyone rely on it Screws up the 'I can control anyone' brigade And I wont say who I did my leadership courses with, but I would refer you to 'Pratchett' Dave |

I wouldn't change a thing. I believe Louis would be smiling, as well.  |
