closer to the bone

 Heading for the highway Rolling like a river

Soaring like an eagle Skippin' like a stone
Comin' from the heartbeat Nothin' but the truth now
Everything is sweeter CLOSER TO THE BONE-

the old woman in me

 The old woman in me, she don't wanna go back in time

Thinks her '50s might have been her prime, says don't give up on that man of mine
She's good at listening, says kiss 'em every time a kid walks in
Remember what your heart is for and you won't have to ask for more

She's a no-regret-er, yeah, a good forgiver, yeah
And where she's worn around the edges, go on and let her be
She's peace in a housedress, I'm a work in progress
I hope someday I get to be the old woman in me

souvenirs

 

Broken hearts and dirty windows
Make life difficult to see
That's why last night and this morning
Always look the same to me
And I hate reading old love letters
For they always bring me tears
I can't forgive the way they robbed me
Of my sweetheart's souvenirs

Souvenirs- John Prine

Death Don’t Have No Mercy”.

"Well, Death will go in any family in this land
Well, Death will go in every family in this land
Well, he'll come to your house and he won't stay long
Well, you'll look in the bed and one of your family will be gone
Death will go in any family in this land"

 Death Don’t Have No Mercy”. Reverend Gary David
