men might ought to know this ( Archived) (21)

ur grand i did not mean that at u was more my take on the first song again is all

I think the opposite of the first song...that he is a man who knows that time is worth a lot more than money and spending it with the people you love is more important than the daily grind....where some people would see it as wasting time doing the things he did with the people he loves....he sees it as something special to make memories by.....

i know, was clearing it up just in case is all, now worries how do you like the second song?

there love in the air

ohhh paddy paddy paddy, see if you cannot find this song, you are obviously new to the age country songs we are in which is cool so am i, still learning, check this song out, it is called mr.jones and me

Counting Crows

I was down at the New Amsterdam staring at this yellow-haired girl
Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with this black-haired flamenco dancer
She dances while his father plays guitar
She's suddenly beautiful
We all want something beautiful
I wish I was beautiful
So come dance this silence down through the morning
Cut Maria! Show me some of them Spanish dances
Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones
Believe in me
Help me believe in anything
I want to be someone who believes

song is called mr.jones




Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales
Stare at the beautiful women
"She's looking at you. Ah, no, no, she's looking at me."
Smiling in the bright lights
Coming through in stereo
When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely

I will paint my picture
Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful
Grey is my favorite color
I felt so symbolic yesterday
If I knew Picasso
I would buy myself a gray guitar and play

Mr. Jones and me look into the future
Stare at the beautiful women
"She's looking at you.
Uh, I don't think so. She's looking at me."
Standing in the spotlight
I bought myself a gray guitar
When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely

I want to be a lion
Everybody wants to pass as cats
We all want to be big big stars, but we got different reasons for thatBelieve in me because I don't believe in anything
and I want to be someone to believe

Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio
Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
"She's perfect for you, Man, there's got to be somebody for me."
I want to be Bob Dylan
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
When everybody loves you, son, that's just about as funky as you can be

Mr. Jones and me staring at the video
When I look at the television, I want to see me staring right back at me
We all want to be big stars, but we don't know why and we don't know how
But when everybody loves me, I'm going to be just about as happy as can be
Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars..

Irish lass and hugz, I assure you, I take the time to fish. Fly fishing parrallels life in so many ways that I think it is life itself. When my son was about 12 I taught him to fish. I didn't have much time to fish. I spent all my time untangling his lines. I had to carry the gear so he could always run ahead. I was young then and the gear light. I didn't mind. That was alot of years ago. He progressed into an fine fisherman. The student supassed the master. I still have enough good days that he can say "the ole man can still fish" am am thankfull for it. He is now my better. We were walking out of a small pond not long ago. I tripped over a log I stepped over for 20 years. My steps are not as light as they once were I suppose. I fell and dropped my rods, cutting my forehead a bit . He turned, came back, helped me up and wiped the blood from my forhead saying " you'll be alright. I'll carry your rods. let's go. it'll be dark soon." I relized then that things had come full circle. I don't pretend to know much but I take the time to fly fish. If that's wisdom than I'm a wise man. I live on a river because it'd where I belong.

"I'd rather go fishing then go to heaven" (Flyrod Crosby, perhaps the greatest fly fisher of all time and a women by the way.) That's G.D. right.
I'd like to tell you a little more but i'm having a little trouble seeing the screen. You understand.
B.G.



















"I'd rather go fishing than go to heaven" -Flyrod Crosby (women btw) Thats G.D. right.

oo i know that use too love that one way back when i was around 15 or any time there after cant quite remember when now.......



well wanting too be some thing ur not is not how u should be just be ur self and maybe people might just like u for who u are

I love to fish....my fav way to spend a day is out on the bay in a boat on a sunny day.....

fair point but using "wasted" in song name is just too strong.....

any time spent with the people u love i.e family or that ex girl or boy friend.......

should never be consider as a waste of time or time well wasted jmo of course

If you aren't the sweetest, well the women on here now know you have tenacity and love so i will deff give a vote for danged ol good guy, didn't know we were going to have one but there you go, you just never know, you are cool, hope your head feels better too!
