Hi people. I know my last few (all) posts have been empty, meaningless drivel, and I am here to remedy this situation. I am list'ning to this kinda crappy Great Big Sea album, and it has inspired me to write a folk song for my hometown!

As I walk upon my cities shores,
my mem'ries start to form.
I think of all the times I've had
in the town where I was born.

Charlotte is a city
covered all in gold,
and it's legend, long and lively
has already been told.

Although I only lived there for
three years and a day,
the mem'ry of my times there
and the fun will never fade.

Now as I walk so slowly
upon this mortal plain,
I reflect upon the days in Charlotte
AND THEY'RE DRIVIN' ME INSANE!!!!


Ok...it kinda fell apart there at the end, but who cares, because now this song is in the pantheon of great folk songs, and will NEVER DIE!!!!

That was a REALLY good folk song, I have a rep here from the Smithsonian. They want your song for their archives! Call me for more info.
