Sometimes I think I'm gonna lose my mind
But it don't look like I ever do
I've loved so many people everywhere I went
Some too much, and others not enough
Well I don't know
I may go down or up or anywhere
But I feel like this scribbling might stay
Maybe if I hadn't seen so much hard feelings
I might not could've felt other people's
So when you think of me, if and when you do
Just say, "Well, another man's done gone"
Well, another man's done gone
-- Woody Guthrie
The poor cook he caught the fits
ReplyDeleteAnd threw away all my grits
And then he took and he ate up all of my corn
Let me go home
Why don't they let me go home
This is the worst trip Ive ever been on
-- The Beach Boys
Nice - I've never heard that.
ReplyDeleteThe words by Woody were written when he was suffering from Huntington's at the end of his life. Pretty powerful stuff if you read it with that in mind.
Not sure what was running through Wilson's head.
