Medicine woman raised her
Spirit father praised her
Through their love she was set free
From a baby kicking and screaming
To a full blood woman dreaming
With the power just to be
She’s a child of the wild blue yonder
Flying out of here
She’s a child of the wild blue yonder
Born in an angel’s wing

Here I am lost in the wind
‘Round in circles sailing
Like a ship that never comes in
Standing by myself
Sing a sad song for a good man
Sing a sad song for me
Sing a sad song for the sailor
A thousand miles from the sea
Here I am along on the plain
Sun’s going down
It’s starting to rain

First time I posted it, it got eaten so here goes nothin…
They hung a sign up in our town,
if you live it up, you won’t live it down.
So, she left Monte Rio, son,
just like a bullet leaves a gun.
With her charcoal eyes and monroe hips,
she went and took that california trip.
Well, the moon was gold,
her hair like wind.
She said, “dont look back, just come on Jim.”
(chorus)
Oh you got to
Hold on, hold on
Baby gotta hold on.
Take my hand, I’m standing right here
You gotta hold on.

But seriously, can you believe the fucktards at Kos who were offended by the Onion?
Yes, yes I can. A fucktard does not have to be smart to be able to post on the internet, and there are a lot of stupid fucking fucktards posting at Kos’s place. I rarely if ever post there anymore. I thought the Onion piece was fucking hilarious! And if those fucktards at Kos don’t like it, they can lick my…

No, no use in lecturing them, or in threatening them
They will just say ”who are you”
Is that a question or not, and you see that the plot
Is predictable, not new
But you’re still stunned at the things you will do
No, no use in taking their time or in wasting two dimes
On a call to God knows who
When all you feel is the rain and it’s hard to be vain
When no person looks at you
So just be gracious and wait in the queue
So when do I get to sing ”My Way”
When do I get to feel like Sinatra felt
When do I get to sing ”My Way”
In heaven or hell
When do I get to do it my way
When do I get to feel like Sid Vicious felt
When do I get to sing ”My Way”
In heaven or hell
Yes, it’s a tradition they say, like a bright Christmas Day
And traditions must go on
And though I say, yes I see, no I really don’t see
Is my smiley face still on?
Sign your name with an X, mow the lawn
They’ll introduce me, ”Hello, hello”
Women seduce me and champagne flows
Then the lights go low
There’s only one song I know
There, this home which once was serene, now is home to the screams
And to flying plates and shoes
But I have no souvenirs of these crackerjack years
Not a moment I could choose
And not one offer that I could refuse
So when do I get to sing ”My Way”
When do I get to feel like Sinatra felt
When do I get to sing ”My Way”
In heaven or hell
When do I get to do it my way
When do I get to feel like Sid Vicious felt
When do I get to sing ”My Way”
In heaven or hell
