i could go on forever but you get the gist!
Wahoo! Thanks for all your help, kid. I love these! Gets me in a walkin' kinda mood. I'll try to put these together somehow!
hi will! i found another song you might know... it was first copywrited in 1931 but nobody knows who originally wrote it haha :P not sure if you're still in or you've gone off to see henry... if you have good luck btw! we're all rooting for you :) we are all metaphorically jumping up and down with our metaphorical pompoms and cheering (this part is not metaphorical we are really honestly cheering)
Thanks for the tune! If I understand them right, that sure is the sentiment some folks came in here with — the likes of Henry and Tati!
And thanks for the well wishes — I ain’t setting out yet — waitin’ for the go ahead from you folks! Thank you for the encouragement anyhow! For now, I’ll keep this tune in my back pocket for “country music”…
also while im sending you tunes... hopefully this isn't offensive, but this song from 1937 reminded me a lot of you!! :P
It sure is funny when you feel that way! Sure would love to tumble into his honey…
hi will! back with another song recommendation!!! im not sure how familiar you are with the blues but this is a delta blues song so it's in a style that should've originated somewhere around your time (20s? 30s? which is it anyway) and the lyrics reminded me a lot of you!
Wow! Love this tune — real catchy! Some of us are born to lose!
hey will! hopefully this sends! sorry i don't know a lot of ragtime, but i do know a little bit of the blues, and i was wondering whether this song was related to your song "will you miss me"? i know this one was first recorded around 1931!
Hi there! Thanks for sharing this tune -- it's marvelous! Ain't sure if there's a connection, but there could be -- I'll take a look into it!
