I can only implore you to let me go, Rita Lynn
I just don’t know the lines to this crazy song you sing

Even with a fat wallet, either worked for or stolen
I could never pay for you, Rita Lynn, never in a lifetime

Here comes the bus, baby
{damn it! I don’t care about the money...}

You know, one bus can take you uptown
{I need you … }

One bus can take you downtown.
{but I don't want you}

One bus can take you crosstown,
{no, I don't need you, Rita Lynn...}

One bus can take you anywhere you want to go
{oh, please don't go, baby, I know I love you...}

Wanting...Needing...Loving...It can be a crazy roller coaster ride and a thin line to boot. Enjoyed Bluesy

Sorry Bluesy,
Thought I commented on this Friday, but I only read it early in the morning and was contemplating a response I was going to do at work. I got busy and spaced it out.

You have yet to write a piece I didn't like.
This is no exception. Struggling to say why and what I like about it specifically. I just do. ~L

That's quite alright, Miss Lori. It took me awhile to see that I hadn't thanked you, which of course, I do!
