Oh you get me ready in your 56 Chevy
Why don't we go sit down in the shade
Take shelter on my front porch
The dandy lion sun scorching,
Like a glass of cold lemonade
I will do laundry if you pay all the bills
Where is my John Wayne
Where is my prairie song
Where is my happy ending
Where have all the cowboys gone
Why don't you stay the evening
Kick back and watch the TV
And I'll fix a little something to eat
Oh I know your back hurts from working on the tractor
How do you take your coffee my sweet
I will raise the children if you pay all the bills
Where is my John Wayne
Where is my prairie song
Where is my happy ending
Where have all the cowboys gone
I am wearing my new dress tonight
But you don't, but you don't even notice me
Say goodbyes
Say goodbyes
Say goodbyes
We finally sell the Chevy
When we had another baby
And you took the job in Tennessee
You made friends at the farm
And you joined them at the bar
Almost every single day of the week
I will wash the dishes while you go have a beer
Where is my Marlboro man
Where is his shiny gun
Where is my lonely ranger
Where have all the cowboys gone
Yippee yo, yippee yeah
Weeping does endure for a night, but joy does indeed comes in the morning. It is from the Book of Psalms. This means that we are to still wait on the Lord and endure. Be strong and obedient, dear child of the Lord.
We were not just lovers
We were not just friends boy
The time we shared was not a simple love affair
Nooooooo, We learned about each other
That you're so afraid of the love boy
There is no one that could ever love me better
Noooooo
Time and time again
I thought you were my friend
You say you gotta go
And I want you to know
[Chorus:]
If you leave me now boy
I'll close my eyes and I'll just lay down and cry
Why would you leave me now boy?
After all the things that we've been through
You say you leave me now boy
And when you're gone what am I supposed to do
And if you wanna come back to me
I think you should know that I'll be loving you
(I'll be loving you)
No more changes for my life
I pray to God that you'll come back to me
When we're together
There's nothing better than loving you
I wanna know why you're leaving boy
The love we had was an open door
What happened to the dreams we shared
Together noooooo
Time and time again
I thought you were my friend
You say you gotta go
And I want you to know
Why are you leaving me now boy
After all the things that we've been through
(You know I love you)
You know I still love you
(You know I need you)
Time and time again
I thought you were my friend
You say you gotta go
And I want you to know
[Chorus:]
If you leave me now boy
I'll close my eyes and I'll just lay down and cry
Why would you leave me now boy?
After all the things that we've been through
You say you leave me now boy
And when you're gone what am I supposed to do
And if you wanna come back to me
I think you should know that I'll be loving you
(I'll be loving you)
[Chorus:]
If you leave me now boy
I'll close my eyes and I'll just lay down and cry
Why would you leave me now boy?
After all the things that we've been through
You say you leave me now boy
And when you're gone what am I supposed to do
And if you wanna come back to me
I think you should know that I'll be loving you
(I'll be loving you)
[Chorus:]
If you leave me now boy
I'll close my eyes and I'll just lay down and cry
Why would you leave me now boy?
After all the things that we've been through
You say you leave me now boy
And when you're gone what am I supposed to do
And if you wanna come back to me
I think you should know that I'll be loving you
(I'll be loving you)
Oh damn

So you and I can go get in it
Let me come and pick you up, oh
And go take you out, oh
Can I get your number, baby
So I can show you what I'm all about

And I noticed that you ain't just one of the crowd
So tell me won't you

Hug and kiss and love ya
Look into my eyes, baby, don't be shy

We ain't got all night
Tell me how many times in your life
Will you get an opportunity like this tonight
Tell me a little somethin' bout you
Here's a little somethin' bout me
I got a pimp penthouse with a sick hot tub
We can watch the flat screen
While the bubbles fill it up
Oh damn
The club 'bout to close in a minute
Can I get your number, baby
So you and I can go get in it
Let me come and pick you up, oh
And go take you out, oh
Can I get your number, baby
So I can show you what I'm all about
What I'm all about
Damn
I have been guilty of dyeing my hair constantly for decades and over the years, it has been various shades of brown, black, red, and even blonde. Needless to say, because my natural hair is jet black, trying to be a blonde in one step will be impossible unless I would go to a stylist. I now wonder what hair color I should use for my hair now that I have grays. I guess I could leave it alone. I realize that if I knew what I was doing, I would have an idea about how I would look as a blonde. It never turns out, no matter how much I want to make a change. I like the above pics, but I wonder if with the help of a colorist, how any of these hair colors and maybe even respective styles would look on me. I am now natural and my hair is also thick. That is also something that I would consider as well as my skin tone and eye color, which is dark brown. I would have to bleach my hair first, then have my hair styled and colored to get the same effect. I feel like maybe a change is needed.
I find dark-skinned and black representations of different cartoon and created anime and other cartoons interesting. They are realistic and they are not offensive in any way. I loved watching anime shows and I hopefully go back to watching them. I have often wondered why Japanese anime characters tended to pass for more European characters. From what I gather, most if not nearly all of the main characters are based on representations of Japanese people who were creations of Japanese animators. While most are light as the Japanese are on average a lighter skinned people, there are darker skinned anime (and other) characters such as Miyuki Ayukawa:
Afro Samurai
and of course, the righteous American brothers, Huey and Riley Freeman, of the "Boondocks":
I am interested in the alternative cultures. I find black goths in particular quite interesting. Yes, I understand there are differences between emo, goth, and punk. I realize that because they are "alternative cultures" that many people find it confusing. I find blacks who are punks, like afropunks, goths, and emos an interesting bunch. I find us to be a creative and different people. We are a diverse people with a shared history, and that makes us unique.
