I can still hear the soft Southern winds in the live oak

trees
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me
Hank and Tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good ole boys like me


RIP Don Williams

"with gin on his breathe, and a Bible in his hand, he talked about Honor and things I should know, then he'd stagger a little as he went out the door"

I loved the gentle giant and in his words, "Lord, I hope this day is good."

I was formally known as Furious george and have changed my name to match the name I use to call on WCCP radio.

Why do dogs always race to the door when the doorbell rings? It's almost never for them.

One of the most effective (emotional) PSAs of all time.

When my wife told me this morning, this is the first thing..

I played! A friend of mine from Ireland told me that he loved this song, and with a few minor changes, it could relate to his growing up or anyone anywhere growing up. Good-bye Don, May the Good Lord greet you at the door personally!

When I was a kid Uncle Remus he put me to bed
With a picture of Stonewall Jackson above my head
Then daddy came in to kiss his little man
With gin on his breath and a Bible in his hand
He talked about honor and things I should know
Then he'd stagger a little as he went out the door

I can still hear the soft Southern winds in the live oak trees
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me
Hank and Tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good ole boys like me

Nothing makes a sound in the night like the wind does
But you ain't afraid if you're washed in the blood like I was
The smell of cape jasmine through the window screen
John R. and the Wolfman kept me company
By the light of the radio by my bed
With Thomas Wolfe whispering in my head

When I was in school I ran with kid down the street
But I watched him burn himself up on bourbon and speed
But I was smarter than most and I could choose
Learned to talk like the man on the six o'clock news
When I was eighteen, Lord, I hit the road
But it really doesn't matter how far I go

I can still hear the soft Southern winds in the live oak trees
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me
Hank and Tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good ole boys like me
