Mudjack, Robert Earl Keen Jr. is the best! And right up there with him is his old friend Lyle Lovett: *********** Well, thank you my friend I sincerely appreciate the words you say About how she'll cry And how she'll grieve and miss me when she's gone away Well, say them again I need to hear the words once more, I can't believe How she'll miss me when she's gone And how she'll want to come back home And never leave 'Cause she's leaving me Because she really wants to And she'll be happy when she's gone She'll be happy, she'll be so very happy She'll dance and sing or even learn to fly And spend her time with anyone but me ********** Done with full-out country twang and Emmylou Harris singing poignant backup... and this on his Joshua Judges Ruth album, which is filled with "omygodjuliadumpedmewhatdoido" songs like "she's already made up her mind" and "all my love is gone". : ) I love a man who knows when he's being an idiot.
