Wait. You are calling me hard to figure out? I can only view this as the deepest compliment. You are like God among Gods. Tell me this isn't true, Bob.

I'm thinking of that Dead tune...

He turned twenty-one in prison, doin' life without parole...Mama cried, Mama cried...

Crap. No wonder. That explains everything. Uuugh....Thanks for pointing that out. No wonder....uugh. Why can't they just print lyrics on all the albums. For years I thought it was "Lied." I can't tell you how much trouble that caused me. Wait...Are you sure?

Hear, hear.  If some of us don't go crazy once in a while, we're all gonna go insane. We have to laugh once in a while, and maybe spit in the eye of  what's coming.

Or, as another Dead song sez, "Test me, test me, why don't you arrest me?"

Didn't Merle Haggard do that originally (or Johnny Cash)? What's the title?

I'm pretty sure Merle Haggard did it first; the song title is Mama Tried.

Why am I not surprised that there's more than a couple of Deadheads here?
