About Me

! tipordie.blogspot.com"Days up and down they come Like rain on a conga drum Forget most, remember some Oh, but don't turn none away Everything is not enough Nothing is too much to bear Where you've been is good and gone All you keep is the getting there Well, to live's to fly awe low and high So shake the dust off of your wings And a sleap out of your eyesIt's goodbye to all my friends It's time to leave again Here's to all the poetry And the pickin' down the line I'll miss the system here The bottom's low and the trebble's clear But it don't pay to think too much On things you leave behind Well, I may be gone, awe, I won't be long I'll be bringing back the melody And the rhythm that I findWe all got holes to fill And them holes are all that's real Some fall on you like a storm Sometimes you dig your own The choice is yours to make Time is yours to take Some dive into the sea Some toil upon the stone Well, to live's to fly awe low and high So shake the dust off of your wings And the sleep out of your eye Awe, shake the dust off of your wings And the tears out of your eye"-Townes Van Zandt
