Music makes me happy! I've loved anything with a beat and guitar since I was a kid thanks to my fathers ways;) Now I leave my favorite songs and lyrics to my two kiddos. The bold ones are my favorites. The italicized are me just rambling on...;) Forever and ever all of my love K and Z!

Ramble on Rose by the Grateful Dead
Hoping to hear this one tonight! Can not wait to hear some live music!!! "The grass ain't greener, the wine ain't sweeter, Either side of the hill..."
Just like Jack the Ripper
Just like Mojo Hand
Just like Billy Sunday
In a shotgun rag-time band
Just like New York City
Just like Jericho
Pace the halls and climb the walls
And get out when they blow
Did you say your name was Rambling Rose?
Ramble on baby, settle down easy
Ramble on Rose
Just like Jack and Jill
Mama told the sailor
One heat up and one cool down
Leave nothing for the tailor
Just like Jack and Jill
Papa told the jailor
One heat up and one cool down
Do yourself a favor
Did you say your name was Rambling Rose?
Ramble on baby, settle down easy
Ramble on Rose
I'm gonna sing you
A hundred verses of ragtime
I know this song
It ain't never gonna end
I'm gonna march you up and down
Along the county line
Take you to the leader
Of the band
Just like Crazy Otto
Just like Wolfman Jack
Sitting plush with a royal flush
Aces back to back
Just like Mary Shelley
Just like Frankenstein
Break your chains and count your change
And try to walk the line
Did you say your name was Rambling Rose?
Ramble on baby, settle down easy
Ramble on Rose
I'm gonna sing you
A hundred verses of ragtime
I know this song
It ain't never gonna end
I'm gonna march you up and down
Along the county line
Take you to the leader
Of the band
Goodbye Mama and Papa
Goodbye Jack and Jill
The grass ain't greener, the wine ain't sweeter
Either side of the hill
Did you say your name was Rambling Rose?
Ramble on baby, settle down easy
Ramble on Rose
