this has to be my favourite……

I am just a poor boy and my storys seldom told
Ive squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises
All lies and jest, still the man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest, hmmmm

When I left my home and my family, I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station, runnin scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters, where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only they would know

Li la li…

Asking only workmans wages, I come lookin for a job, but I get no offers
Just a comeon from the whores on 7th avenue
I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there

Now the years are rolling by me, they are rockin even me
I am older than I once was, and younger than Ill be, thats not unusual
No it isnt strange, after changes upon changes, we are more or less the same
After changes we are more or less the same

Li la li…

And Im laying out my winter clothes, wishing I was gone, goin home
Where the new york city winters arent bleedin me, leadin me to go home

In the clearing stands a boxer, and a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders of every glove that laid him down or cut him
til he cried out in his anger and his shame
I am leaving, I am leaving, but the fighter still remains
Yes he still remains

Li la li…

BOB MARLEY

Reggae King of the World

“He was a man with deep religious and political sentiments who rose from destitution to become one of the most influential music figures in the last twenty years.”

“Marley is a blur of motion, bobbing, weaving, dreadlocks flying, never seeming to quite touch the stage.”

“Apostle, shaman, prophet, priest, poet: call him what you will, Bob Marley lives in all of us.”

My mother in law,,kinda gets on my wick.
the things she says,the way she prays,
its all that wee bit sick.
as her days pass in a catholic haze.

at her age,she is away with the fairys,
as she blesses Our lady and says the Hail Marys.
she ignored her religeon for 40 odd years,
ignored the call of romanian tears.

never suffered fools ,she declared !
as i sat there and wept.
i was ever so scared,
as the future it crept..

so i faced her !

and told her I was the love of HER sons life.
and in a secret wee bet,he made me his wife. !
was never good enough,and never princess Di,
a clown and a poet, so take it ..oh my !

and she disowned him.

and later she realised she needed me too,
we took them on holiday, a family through and through.
along came the baby.put things in motion,
till the night she mentioned,, casually.., abortion. !

and i hated her.

so i smiled through the years,and the thinly veiled tears,
as i watched her non smiling eyes glower.
the ill fated looks of not in her good books,
but NOT once did i ever cower.

then he died.

so now,i appear,to sound ever so queer,
as i tolerate this woman so bold.
no longer the 20 something fears, but a lassie of cheers.
and a mother in law so pathetically old.

and she needs me..

good straight from the heart stuff rubes xxxx ((((((rubes))))))
