[Dixielandjazz] RE: woke up this morning

[Bill Gunter]

Some other odd (white blues lyrics):

Well I woke up this morning and I saw that both cars were gone
Yes I woke up this morning and I saw that both cars were gone
I got so downright angry I through my martinin right across the lawn!

Cheers,

Bill "It makes one want to weep" Gunter
