Under the I-20 bridge over the Chatta- 'hoochee suits me fine as fishin' line - I've been retried and found I ain't wanted nothing but a winter coat - my sweet mutt Woof - an old six string Martin and a 'frigerator carton for sleeping in the winter wind when the sun don't shine - I don't have a bone to pick - my fingers ain't quiet as quick and nimble on a riff - my back is stiff - but my voice is still whiskey smooth and my words turn water into thunderbird - wine retried suits me just fine - jailhouse jeans and salvation army boots - refried beans and cheap cheroots - sitting on an old truck tire around an open fire I've been  retried and trued but I ain't yet retired - somebody's got to feed my dog - sing some songs - catch these fish and start the fire - drink a little ***** - 'neath the I-20 bridge over the Chattahoochee rivaaa···· r ~ 10/16/14
