"And the 3 men I admire most, the father, son and the holy ghost. Well they caught the last train for the coast, the day the music died. And there were singin' ...."
"Scarlet Begonias"
words by Robert Hunter; music by Jerry Garcia

[Bridge]
I ain't often right
but I've never been wrong
It seldom turns out the way

if you look at it right

"I don't care if it rains or freezes long as I have my plastic Jesus riding on the dashboard of my car"
From the movie Cool Hand Luke
"This is the night of the expanding man.
I take one last drag as I approach the stand.
I cried when I wrote this song;
sue me if I play too long.
This brother is free, I'll be what I want to be."
