I don't give a hoot about what people have to say
I'm laughin' as I'm analyzed
Lunatics Anonymous that's where I belong
Sure cause I am one till my strength is gone
Yeah This Beat Goes On

This Beat Goes On-The Kings


I've never been a tidy dresser
And the fold in my trousers it ain't straight.
Still I know a good cloth when I see one.
That's why I'm clad in this gray flannel suit.
Sometimes I wonder if I should visit a tailor
And get myself a smooth outfit.
Then I remember what my father said to me.
I'll make you from the open road

He said, "Others may come and others may go,
But that suit will be around wherever you go"

-Three Button Hand Me Down-Faces

And you aint some icon carved out of soap
Sent down here to clean up my reputation
And baby, I aint your prince charming
Now we can live in fear, or act out of hope
For some kind of peaceful situation
Baby, dont know why the cry of love is so alarming

-Thing Called Love-John Hiatt

Don’t let us get stupid, all right?
Just make us be brave
And make us play nice

Of course. I think I still have the record. Do you remember:

I don't wanna have to shout it out
I don't want my hair to fall out
I don't wanna be filled with doubt
I don't wanna be a good boy scout
I don't wanna have to learn to count
I don't wanna have the biggest amount
I don't wanna grow up

That ditty is an original almost country song By Tom Scott and is similar to another: "She has freckles on her.But she is pretty"

When I was a young boy,
my momma told me "Son.
Always be a good boy and don't ever play with guns."
But I shot a man in Reno,
just to watch him die. (Folsum Prison Blues)

Livin on the road my friend
is gonna keep you free and clean
Now you wear your skin like iron
Your breath as hard a Kerosene....
Poncho was a bandit boy
His horse as fast as polished steel
he wore his gun outside his pants
For all the honest world to feel(Poncho and Lefty)

Police come I didn't wanna go this morning
Police come I didn't wanna go this morning
Police come I dident wanna go,
showed them the little end of my 44, this morning (old folk tune)

Granpa was a carpenter, he built houses stores and banks
Chain-smoked camel cigarettes, hammered nails in planks
He was a-level on the level, shaved even every door
Voted for Eisenhouer, 'cause Lincoln won the war. (Grampa was a carpenter: John Prine)
And almost any John Prine song...

"Eternal Father, strong to save,
Whose arm hath bound the restless wave,
Who bidd'st the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep;
Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee,
For those in peril on the sea! "

This one always moved me, expecially when I heard it sung during Sunday services by around 1,000 Navy recruits in a drill hall at the Great Lakes Training Center in 1966.
