Same Theme Going...

I was listening to Seeger's version of "Walkin Down the Line" and decided to write my own.

Well I'm a-walkin down the line (x3)
my feet'll be flyin'
tell ya 'bout my troubled mind

My pleasures came and went (x3)
my last lone dollar spent
and none of 'em was heaven sent

stranger, don't turn your back on me
don't turn your back on me
don't turn your back on me
I don't got much ya see
wonderin' how it would be
if you could lend a hand to me

Well I'm a-walkin down the line (x3)
no tellin what's inside
too much weighin' on my mind

lost my daisy in the rain (x3)
and no one ever claimed
that I would a-feel this way

He says I should've never gone (x3)
morning's too young
and I'm all wrong
but daddy I just love to run

Well I'm a-walkin down the line (x3)
my feet'll be flyin'
see ya some other time

I think it's cool that you can write poetry and also songs. I can't write either to save my life lol.

Thank god I'm not the only one who thought we didnt do anything in carpe diem. I didn't go to any of the "meetings" either. I mean...we didn't write. Or anything. And that was the whole point of the club. I'll be royally pissed if that happens again this year. Well, I've realized if I don't force myself to get the right amount of sleep sometimes, then I get really stressed easily and Music Theory does that to you lol. I'm glad you're still finding ways to make yourself write. That's great.
