I have plans tonight, but I just got a box in the mail and now all I want to do is singing some Tift Merritt while reding "What's the Matter with Kansas."
A quote from the back says, "I promise y'all, this is the only way to understand why so many Americans have decided to vote against their own economic and political interests."
And the song that made me buy the cd.......(I couldn't find them anywhere online, so i'm probably typing with mistakes):
I swore that I was living free. Oh, you couldn't talk to me, And the pride that kept me didn't want no company. Early morning subway train, Feeling lost and running late, Well, he held the car, and he gave his seat to me.
I can't find nothing feels so fine as loving A good hearted man. He can soothe, me, free me, oh I'm going to marry That good hearted man.
I told him that he'd better go, 'Cause I was crazy and impossible, That my love was borken, my dreams had run off wild. But patient as the easy rain, He never turned away, Calling, "hey sweet woman, you know you're not a child."
I can't find nothing feels so fine as loving A good hearted man. He can soothe, me, free me, oh I'm going to marry That good hearted man.
Good hearted man, now the night makes sense. Because your tenderness is sheltering me.
So I'm trading in that hothead kid For a woman I can give to him. It aint't easy, but I'm going to do the best I can For that good hearted man.
There just ain't nothing feels so fine as loving A good hearted man. He can soothe, me, free me, oh I'm going to marry That good hearted man. And I'm grateful, grateful, got to say thank you To a good hearted man.
Maybe one day I'll sing it and mean it, but for now I just like the way it sounds. And I love her voice.
