A couple weeks ago, I was stopped in front of a church by traffic. As I looked into the church parking lot, I noticed a motorcycle standing there and the rider was talking with an obvious church member.

He turned in a sullen sort of way; walked back to his motorcycle; got his helmet on in a rather brash manner; started up and drove away. I had no idea of what the conversation was but the thought crossed my mind; didn't Johnny Paycheck have a song out about something like that ??

I have become too old to remember the words or title, but the thoughts are still in my head. I hope that wasn't what it was about but it sure looked like that old song !!

Regards, Paul

Paul, Johnny Paycheck had a song out called Outlaw's Prayer. It was about him going into a church with a beard and long hair. The usher told him he would have to leave so he went outside and sat on the church steps. I always enjoyed hearing it even though I do not remember which album it was on.

When I go to The Record Lady's site, my 'puter says: Windows cannot open this file. You may need permission to do so.

If so, I don't see how to do that in the site pages. Am I missing something here ??

Flowers for Donny:

I suppose we better get with FTD to get DAC all his before the rush.....

An old violin alright. One that shot too many drugs and one too many people...

Loved his songs. Lived a couple of them my durn self.

Shine on Donny.
