Good Advice

Audio Recordings, Ranch Life, Relationships / tagged Country Music, Humor, Wisdom / May 13, 2023 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

Whenever anything got broke or lost
Kim's mother would say:
Don't cry over anything that can't cry over you

Which is a good thing to remember
when your life becomes a country song
and your dog and your wife and your truck are gone
Your dog will miss you right away and cry with the coyotes all the night
your wife will miss you later - maybe and cry for all the coulda's that might

buy you're sadly mistaken
if you think that old C-10 Chevy
following the repo truck down the lane
is going to miss you half as much as you miss it

Dog Whistlers

Of course dogs whistle
mostly old country tunes
sad we can’t hear them
