HiDee Big Jim Again, Bro Dave, Mz Lynn & (Ain't she Great?) Mz Beth!!!

I DO like the Latest Improved-Version...& The "Forget it" Version IS an Improvement, Jim-Migo!!! Works fine as frog hair..kinda makes it a bit More "Grown-Up", Bravo Amigo! &..heh..Hook's really Enthusiastic-Sounding now, too...I'm Thrilled! (Dunno if my Fading-Out-Drums Idea improved it any...you be da judge..heh!) (Maybe with some fading-out Sax..too?...I'm not too-sure anymore..so Shoot-Me, I'm just onea the Lyricists..heh!)

Big Thanks Back to The-Other-Lyricist for forgivin'-me. Beth's got Her Comedic Touch woven all-through this Grass-Skirted little Number..but I've penned about 50-60 MORE songs since penning this one..&..my Memory's SO bad lately I can't even remember the Title of the one Doug Murphy & I got in a MOVIE recently. (Guess I'll take some more of those sub-lingual Vitamin B Tablets again...tho they give me more Insomnia than I normally-Already-Have!)

Mz Lynn, I'll leave it up to Jim on those kind Sugs of Yours. (Beth also wanted a "Mr Moon" line in there..you two been in-conference???);-)> Every time I hear "Mr Moon" ol' Brook Benton comes back in-mind, singin' "Please Mr Sun"...& it's 1960-somethin' again. But I kinda agonize when hearing a "Moon" in there..near-anywhere..since that ol' Moon/June/Spoon rhymy-stuff is so-dated. Jim's quite an adequate Word-Weaver himself...always free to cut-&-paste a bit on any lyrics we send him. Thanks for the Sugs...& We'll see if Jim's doin' Version 3, tho I'm REAL thrilled with Version 2, all-in-all!

As for John Fogarty..I LOVE the Guy's seeming-simplicity. WISH I could pen one as Cool as "Born on A Bayou" & go musically "Chooglin' down to New Orleans"... Ah, to capture the Mood of "Willie & The Poor Boys"...

But..for now, heh, I'm VERY Contented with the way "The Natives" ARE turning out...tonight!

Many Thanks Y'All...me & my Tired Brain are off to watch some late-night TV & Feel Good About Yet Another Good Friday!

Best Wishes, Big Hugs to All, & a Wee-Forehead Smooch for Mz O!
