Thank you. (…..). This
is
Thank you. (…..) song about a farm. (before Maggie’s Farm)
Thank you. (…..), I wrote this song, you hear that’s a new country song.
I was country before it was cool. (…..). I was country before it was cool. I
was a whole lot of things before it was cool. By that I'm not saying I'm proud
of that. Anyway, I wrote this song in some kind of mood one night. (…..), certain
kind of pressure. (after Simple Twist Of Fate)
Thank you. This is a new song we just recently recorded. It should be
out…I don't know when they're releasing my records these days. But whenever
they do release another one it should be on it. Called Dead Man, Dead Man, When
Will You Arise.
Thank you. I'm gonna take a break and change my shirt. In the meantime I
wanna introduce Carolyn Dennis. She's gonna sing a
song called Walking Around Heaven All Day.
Here’s one we also just recorded by the way. (before Lenny Bruce)
Thank you. That was Solid Rock. By the way, there's a woman out here
tonight who's very, very, very (…..). She's writing an autobiography with me. I
don't think I've ever met her. Anyway now, you tell the truth somewhere in your
work, whoever you are. This is a new song we just did a while back…recorded.
Should be our next single. I don't know, if anybody wants to know when it
really gonna come out you could call the record company and they can tell you
more specifically. Anyway, this is called Watered-Down Love. You don't want a
love…you don't want a love that's pure, you wanna
drown love, you want a watered-down love. Yes, Ma’am.
Thank you. We gotta go now. I sincerely hope
we played something that you came to hear. Clap if we played something that you
came to hear. Clap louder. If we played something that you came to hear you
clap louder. (Take care), I'm being confused. Anyway, on the left over there is
Miss Carolyn Dennis. Standing next to her is Madelyn
