The Monday Morning Memo

Do believe I’m gonna clap my hands.
Think I might tap my feet.
Put together a one-man band,
take a walk on down the street.
Have a one-man parade!
Nobody needs to know.
Cause I’m right good at holding on to secrets,
and I don’t believe they show.

All I want is a little dog
to be walking at my right hand.
Taking a breeze just as free as you please,
maybe checking out occasional garbage cans.
Talking ’bout a one dog, y’all.
Nobody’s friend but mine.
You can say he’s looking kind of funky,
but I do believe he suits me just fine.

We were on the road again,
I was wondering what to do,
but Honalei, it was pouring down rain,
Baby, she had the low down blues.

I was looking for my walking cane,
tying on my highway shoes.
Thinking ’bout a one man parade, y’all,
nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody.
I’m right good at holding on,
holding on, holding on.

Honalei, it’s raining.
Honalei, sure nough,
it’s raining, listen here.
Honalei, it’s raining,
Honalei, it’s raining muddy waters.

Thinking ’bout a one man parade,
y’all, nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody.
I’m right good at holding on,
holding on, holding on.
La la la la la…

Random Quote:

“How do human beings put into words their ideas about the meaning of human life? How do they convey through art and religion their beliefs about the significance of human life? They do it partly by investing in certain transcultural stories, like the one about the adventures of a culture hero, which, after a period of trial and hardship, always ends in triumph.”

- Barry Lopez, Horizons, (2019) p. 323
