I am too tired to pretend. I am too tired to be smiley. Merle is on. 40 greatest Merle hits....this one hits me particularly this evening. I am looking for one song in particular and I can't find it. I'll find it one day and listen to it 25 times before bed....
Admitting you're to blame won't heal my wounded pride. It's too late to be ashamed, I've already stepped aside. Just let me live again and please don't come around. If you never loved me then. You'll never love me now.
You fooled me all the way. Each time you held me tight. But when darkness turned to day, then I finally saw the light. When I really needed you, that's when you let me down. If you never love me then, you'll never love me now.
Just let me live again and please don't come around. If you never loved me then, you'll never love me now.
-Merle Haggard
Amazing stuff....amazing. Remember friends, when Merle comes on...it's time for bed.
By the way...last night Loretta told us she and Merle and working on a collaboration. Classic history at it's finest.
