From Fried Green Tomatoes
To Tarzan!
Come scream with me
On the railroad tracks of life.
When the freight trains come
Steaming through the valley of hope
Fear not, you'll make it
On the downward slope
And when the engine roars louder
Your voice will still be heard above
TOWANDA! Will rise from the caverns
Of anything wrestling your life and love
Screaming you back to existence
Hungry for the Whistle Stop Cafe
Everyone begging for your secrets

I'm no rope of rescuing muscle
But I've been there in the smashing
Of my face against the trees
The jungle snakes are slithering
The vines are tangling your feet
I'll throw you a rope dear Lady
Just hang on and SCREAM!
Between the two of us
In harmonizing fashion
Tarzan will drop the monkey
And run for you!
But not until he gets it right
Should you allow him to ride
The rope of your redemption.
You'll never be anyone's plain Jane again.

Regina, this is too sweet of you. And I am grabbing the rope. Now pull...hard...
