Sorta Songlines

I love you baby, but you gotta understand

When the Lord made me

He made a Ramblin' Man.

Some folks might say that I'm no good

That I wouldn't settle down if I could

But when that open road starts to callin' me

There's somethin' o'er the hill that I gotta see

Sometimes it's hard but you gotta understand

When the Lord made me, He made a Ramblin' Man.

McLouth, KS


I found something in Kansas that I had forgotten about. Something I didn’t know I had been missing till I felt it again: the warmth of old friends. With old friends things are easy.

There was a drunken night with homecooked food and a campfire. There was a drunken night at an American Legion hall in Perry, KS watching pool. There was a tipsy night on Mass. Street in Lawrence. Am I a functioning alcoholic?
