I lived around 7-corners, 8 miles away from the M street Cellar Door, next to DC liquor and 4 bucks at the door. Afterwards it was Good Guys for beer and cheeeese.
Thanks.
Shedding tears to hear of this. He was a great storyteller and master acoustic picker. May God receive him.
“When I Get To Heaven”
When I get to heaven, I’m gonna shake God’s hand
Thank him for more blessings than one man can stand
Then I’m gonna get a guitar and start a rock-n-roll band
Check into a swell hotel, ain’t the afterlife grand?
And then I’m gonna get a cocktail: vodka and ginger ale
Yeah, I’m gonna smoke a cigarette that’s nine miles long
I’m gonna kiss that pretty girl on the tilt-a-whirl
‘Cause this old man is goin’ to town
Then as God as my witness, I’m gettin’ back into show business
I’m gonna open up a nightclub called “The Tree of Forgiveness”
And forgive everybody ever done me any harm
Well, I might even invite a few choice critics, those syph’litic parasitics
Buy ‘em a pint of Smithwick’s and smother ‘em with my charm
‘Cause then I’m gonna get a cocktail: vodka and ginger ale
Yeah I’m gonna smoke a cigarette that’s nine miles long
I’m gonna kiss that pretty girl on the tilt-a-whirl
Yeah this old man is goin’ to town
Yeah when I get to heaven, I’m gonna take that wristwatch off my arm
What are you gonna do with time after you’ve bought the farm?
And then I’m gonna go find my mom and dad, and good old brother Doug
Well I bet him and cousin Jackie are still cuttin’ up a rug
I wanna see all my mama’s sisters, ‘cause that’s where all the love starts
I miss ‘em all like crazy, bless their little hearts
And I always will remember these words my daddy said
He said, “Buddy, when you’re dead, you’re a dead pecker-head”
I hope to prove him wrong... that is, when I get to heaven
‘Cause I’m gonna have a cocktail: vodka and ginger ale
Yeah I’m gonna smoke a cigarette that’s nine miles long
I’m gonna kiss that pretty girl on the tilt-a-whirl
Yeah this old man is goin’ to town
Yeah this old man is goin’ to town
Who writes lines like that?
Sounds like you may have been a Jeb Stuart H.S. grad.
As for me...Annandale High.
And the narcs were narcing.
Stuart... great rivalry the Raiders and the Atoms
C BS says Prine died of Wuflu (”coronavirus”).
....after 2 bouts of cancer.
Eat up with cancer actually first
Covid second
Great song smith no question
Prine had lung cancer
He shopped near me when I lived in Green Hills
He was a hard left lefty
Still a good writer
It’s quite clear— and even admitted-— that lots of deaths are being attributed to WuFlu with only the slightest of evidence, ignoring extenuating conditions.
ABC reports one of their long time cameramen died of WuFlu.
I’ll wait to learn his underlying cause.
Prine had advanced lung cancer
I’m sorry to disappoint doomers
My mom died of ovarian cancer, but her death certificate states 'Liver Failure' and says nothing and includes no reference to ovarian cancer. But we all know the ovarian cancer caused the liver failure.
And yes, I was more than aware Prine had lung cancer...very aware. So, with the virus, as one doctor explained to me is that if a person has a chronic condition, it is more than possible that person could live for another 6 months, another year or maybe even 5 years with whatever condition they have. But it is actually the virus that killed the person, not the other condition.
And that makes sense to me.
Lung cancer is more than a chronic condition like say arrhythmia or diabetes
It’s ominous morbidity as they say
Technically per you analysis Prine died of pneumonia then
My point was that it seemed like a lot of freepers were unaware he already had grave health issues
And the media rarely mentions that because it hurts the doom equals orange man bad narrative
