Stevie Joe and Neil
For your listening pleasure:
Neil Young - Fork In The Road
Fork in the Road
Got a pot belly,
It's not too big
Gets in my way
When I'm driving my rig
Driving this country
In a big old rig
Things I've seen
Mean a lot
Friend has a pickup
Drives his kid to school
Then he takes his wife
To beauty school
Now she's doin' nails
Gonna get a job
Got a good teacher
There's a fork in the road ahead
I don't which way I'm gonna turn
There's a fork in the road ahead
About this year
We salute the troops
They're all still there
In a fucking war
It's no good
Whose idea was that?
I've got hope
But you can't eat hope
I'm not done
Not giving up
Not cashing in
Too late
There's a bailout coming but it's not for me
It's for all those creeps watching tickers on TV
There's a bailout coming but it's not for me
I'm a big rock star
My sales have tanked
But I still got you
Thanks
Download this
Sounds like shit
Keep on bloggin'
'Til the power goes out
Your battery's dead
Twist and shout
On the radio
Those were the days
Bring 'em back
There's a bailout coming but it's not for you
It's for all those creeps hiding what they do
There's a bailout coming but it's not for you
Bailout coming but it's not for you
Got my flat screen
Got it repo'd now
They picked it up
Left a hole in the wall
Last Saturday
Missed the Raiders game
There's a bailout coming but it's not for you
There's a bailout coming but it's not for you
It's for all those creeps hiding what they do
From another old coot,

Stevie Joe's January Holler Update
A deep freeze has gripped Junebug Holler. This means that Junior and most of the other nuts have confined their activities to the indoors. The rest of us have enjoyed the quiet. The Junebug Cafe and Internet Lounge is another matter.
The locals still gather every morning at Prudy's to discuss the news of the day. Of course, there has been much gnashing of teeth over the collapse of the mortgage, finance, and job markets. Now, I'm pretty sure that most of the loudest complainers have no mortgage, no investments, and no job. That won't stop the bitching, though.
I've been holding my own thoughts on the economy in reserve. My predictions are rather dire, and they might just push the gang right over the edge. I'll compose them for posting on this here blog, and you folks can read them in a day or two. A few of the local residents can read and will eventually find out, but they are the ones less likely to cause a panic.
I'm off to church shortly so I have to go. More Holler news coming soon!
Adios,
Stevie Joe Parker
