Thanks to a wonderful gift my computer is getting a much needed upgrade.
So, it was decided that I would do a fresh install at the same time..
The only problem with that is NOW I am doing the back up of files that I have been avoiding for months…
UGH.
This is going to be a bit…
However, I will have more space as the upgrade includes another Terabyte Hard drive(SSD), and 16g Ram ( I currently have 8) and a pretty nice new CPU Cooler that will extend the life of my system. I am quite tickled by the gift.
Liar, liar the world’s on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down? Fire, fire burning higher Still got time to turn it all around
Now I ain’t one for speaking out much But that don’t mean I don’t stay in touch Everybody’s trippin’ over this or that What we gonna do when we all fall flat?
Liar, liar the world’s on fire What we gonna do when it all burns down?
I don’t know what to think about us When did we lose in God we trust God Almighty, what we gonna do If God ain’t listenin’ and we’re deaf too
Liar, liar the world’s on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down? Fire, fire burning higher Still got time to turn it all around
Don’t get me started on politics Now how are we to live in a world like this Greedy politicians, present and past They wouldn’t know the truth if it bit ’em in the ass
Now tell me what is truth? (Whatcha gonna do?) Have we all lost sight (Whatcha gonna do?) Of common decency? (Whatcha gonna do?) Of the wrong and right?
How do we heal this great divide? Do we care enough to try? Liar, liar the world’s on fire What we gonna do when it all burns down?
Billy got a gun, Joey got a knife Janey got a sign to carry in the fight Marching in the streets with sticks and stones Don’t you ever believe words don’t break bones
Oh, can we rise above? Can’t we show some love? Do we just give up Or make a change? We know all too well We’ve all been through hell Time to break the spell In Heaven’s name
Liar, liar the world’s on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down? Fire, fire burning higher Still got time to turn it all around
Liar, liar the world’s on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down? Fire, fire burning higher Still got time to turn it all around
Show some love (liar, liar, the world’s on fire) (Still got time to turn it all around) Let’s rise above (liar, liar, the world’s on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Let’s make a stand (liar, liar, the world’s on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Let’s lend a hand (liar, liar, the world’s on fire) (Still got time to turn it all around) Let’s heal the hurt (liar, Liar, the world’s on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Let kindness work (liar, liar, the world’s on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Let’s be a friend (liar, liar, the world’s on fire) (Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?) Let hatred end (liar, liar, the world’s on fire) (Whatcha gonna do)
Liar, liar, the world’s on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down? Liar, liar, the world’s on fire Whatcha gonna do when it all burns down?
My 2 Cents –
Okay…Wow. I have always loved Dolly. She is such a powerful singer and she always chooses lyrics that are worth hearing. But I am just blown away by this one all around.
For the unaware… I read Tarot. I love the cards, and think that it is an old art. I acquired 2 new Decks this week…. so I thought I would share the ones I have.
If you are interested in a reading I only charge $10 for a full Celtic cross layout. Just email me with the deck choice and whether you want to pay via PayPal, Venmo or cashapp.
My great grandparents are buried in Arlington National Cemetery. My Great Grandfather was one of Black Jack Pershing’s Own. My family is filled with many who served. Today in America we honor those who served and are gone. (Veteran’s Day is for the living, Memorial Day is for the dead.) Today…I remember my Great Grandparents.
So for two months I have managed Daily posts…I find myself presented with a problem. June and July are busy months…not the ability to sit in front of the computer kind of busy…but garden and being invited to cookout kind of busy. I have plans for the fall. Sketchtember. Inktober. This is probable. I am considering the Poetry Marathon in August. (that is 24 poems in 24 hours). But I don’t think I can do daily post in June. I will try to post some more art and poetry than I had been doing. And I will definitely do my weekly posts. I have so much more upcoming that I want to share. I just need to pull back slightly.
I got my first real six-string Bought it at the five and dime Played it ’til my fingers bled Was the summer of ’69 Me and some guys from school Had a band and we tried real hard Jimmy quit and Jody got married I should’ve known we’d never get far Oh, when I look back now That summer seemed to last forever And if I had the choice Yeah, I’d always wanna be there Those were the best days of my life Ain’t no use in complainin’ When you got a job to do I spent my evenings down at the drive-in And that’s when I met you, yeah! Standin’ on your mama’s porch You told me that you’d wait forever Oh, and when you held my hand I knew that it was now or never Those were the best days of my life Oh, yeah Back in the summer of ’69, oh Man, we were killin’ time We were young and restless We needed to unwind I guess nothing can last forever Forever, no Yeah And now the times are changin’ Look at everything that’s come and gone Sometimes when I play that old six-string I think about you, wonder what went wrong Standin’ on your mama’s porch You told me that it’d last forever Oh, and when you held my hand I knew that it was now or never Those were the best days of my life Oh, yeah Back in the summer of ’69, uh-huh It was the summer of ’69, oh, yeah Me and my baby in ’69, oh, oh It was the summer, summer, summer of ’69 (Yeah)
My 2 Cents –
Summer is just about here… and time is flying. I love this song and I felt like it is just the right way to end May.
