Bunch of freak’s stick in the muds, you folks are. So okay lets liven it up. Here’s to Silverton, Colorado '79 - '86 (first half was during Colorado’s last gold rush which started the year before.)

Yeah, it’s especially good when no one is around and you can let loose with her. Come on, I know some of you have a song or two to share.   _This morning I woke up with that old Ray Stevens (at least I was positive it was him) song with lyrics like: “in the name of the Lord, la di da” “To hell with hate in the name of the lord” and other such goodie but dang if I can’t find what I’m looking for._ ---

At Indiana University lots of people had their Johnny Cougar sighting stories. Later John Cougar-Mellencamp, then, well, you know. I never realized I had the words wrong. I thought it was “favorite fire”. I’ll have to look up those lyrics. ---

[There are a couple at this link](https://winter60.blogspot.com/2009/07/world-we-want.html). Arlo, and a guy named CR Avery. I wrote him and asked for the lyrics, he said he would get around it, but never did, far’s I know. I did my best. Also, never found this recorded anywhere except by people who were at the folk festival. > I’m sorry sometimes I watch too much TV and let the swing door slam But one day the world is going to turn all fast chains in to second hand book stores And the world will be well read But in the valley of the dead, you can’t hold your breath before death I’m going to be a literary obscene green lizard with my tail curled up like a garden hose Between my teeth a wild rose, A gray dawn, I drop a crayon and I draw it back And I let water colors run and I smear it with beads of sweat ---

I used to think the lyric was Paper _AND_ Fire. Here’s the lyrics: She had a dream And boy it was a good one So she chased after her dream With much desire But when she got too close To her expectations Well the dream burned up Like paper in fire Paper in fire Stinkin’ up the ashtrays Paper in fire Smokin’ up the alleyways Who’s to say the way A man should spend his days Do you let them smolder Like paper in fire… … He wanted love With no involvement So he chased the wind That’s all his silly life required And the days of vanity Went on forever And he saw his days burn up Like paper in fire Paper in fire Stinkin’ up the ashtrays Paper in fire Smokin’ up the alleyways Who’s to say the way A man should spend his days Do you let them smolder Like paper in fire … There’s a good life Right across this green field And each generation Stares at it from afar But we keep no check On our appetites So the green fields turn to brown Like paper in fire Paper in fire Stinkin’ up the ashtrays Paper in fire Smokin’ up the alleyways Who’s to say the way A man should spend his days Do you let them smolder Like paper in fire ---

Hmmm, always liked the song and direction of the lyrics, though don’t think I truly knew all the words. Reading it like that is impressive. Good poem.   _Ain’t it the truth, like paper in fire._ \The little pink houses dude too, eh 😉 I remember him. :-)\
