The Great Pretender

1932-1963

Patsy Cline was born with another name, Virginia Patterson Hensley in Winchester, Va. Patsy showed her love for music at an early age by singing in the church choir. Times were hard for her family, so she had to quit school and go to work at a local drugstore.

In later years though, she was signed with 4-Star Records, then later with Decca. That's when it began to happen for her. The hits started coming and never stopped until the plane crash that took her life in 1963. She was only 31 years old.

Patsy may be gone, but her music will never die. I know she's still singing those beautiful songs, for I can hear that voice from Heaven.

Grandpa 

By: The Judd's

 

I like to walk with Grandpa, His steps are short like mine. He doesn't say, Now hurry up ! He always takes his time. Most people have to hurry . They do not stop and see. I'm glad that God made Grandpa, unrushed and young like me.

 

 

"Grandpa, grownups don't pay attention to me."             said little Jimmy.                                                          Grandpa replied, "They don't pay attention to me either." "Grandpa, sometimes grownups make fun of me. Do they make fun of you too?"                                                         Grandpa said, "Yes son ..... me too."                                   "Grandpa, some days I get tired and have to rest in the afternoon."                                                                           "I know Jimmy ..... I do too."                                               "I love you Grandpa." said little Jimmy.                           "I love you too." Grandpa replied.                                     "I wish more people told me that." said Jimmy.                  "Me too !" answered Grandpa.

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder                       You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger            May you never take one single breath for granted               God forbid love  ever leave you empty handed                   I hope you feel small when you stand beside the ocean        Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens              Promise me that that you'll give faith a fighting chance         And when you get the choice to sit out or dance

I hope you dance........I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance          Never settle for the path of least resistance                         Livin' might be mean takin' chances but they're worth takin Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin'                   Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter                     When you come close to sellin' out reconsider                    Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance       And when you get the choice to sit out or dance

I hope you dance......I hope you dance                               Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along   I hope you dance....I hope you dance                                Tell me who wants to look back on the years and wonder, where those years have gone                                             

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean  Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens              Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance               And when you get the choice to sit out or dance

I hope you dance....I hope you dance 

 

This page is dedicated to my son, Brian.

 You have been my inspiration and the wind beneath my wings. I love you son and please remember.......

 When you get the choice to sit out or dance....

I HOPE YOU DANCE

Remember the music of the 50's and 60's ?

Sometimes when I turn on the 'Oldies' station , I can close my eyes and it takes me back when I was young and I thought that if you were in your 30's , you were old . Oh boy, was I wrong !

The days were always filled with sunshine and dreams, and the nights were spent counting the stars.

But most of all...... there was the music they called 'Rock N Roll'. There was Elvis, Jerry Lee, Fats Domino, Fabian, Ricky, The Beatles and The Temptations and Supremes.

Remember the highschool dances and The Electric Slide, The Mashed Potatoes, The Twist, The Hully Gully and those slow songs that Elvis sang?

How about the Poodle Skirts, Saddle Oxfords, rolled up jeans, Ponytails, Duck cuts, black leather jackets and white t-shirts with the sleeves rolled up ?

The A&W rootbeer , ( Mama Beer, Papa Beer and Baby Beer)The 25 cent hamburgers, hand made fries or coke floats ?

Sitting in the porch swing with your first true love? Or maybe the local drive-in movies where you could get an entire car load in for dollar and see, not one, but two features?

Well, I may be old, but when I close my eyes and listen to the music, I can still remember those days and the music like it was yesterday. And I can still keep up with the best of them when I hear Chubby Checker sing "Lets Twist Again"

I may need to take a couple of pain pills after that Twist, but you can't keep an old dog down ! Ha Ha ! Anyway......

 Welcome to the world of 'The Baby Boomers'  

 Sometimes late at night

I lie awake and watch her sleeping

She's lost in peaceful dreams

So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark

And the thought crosses my mind

If I never wake up in the morning

Would she ever doubt the way I feel 

About her in my heart

If tomorrow never comes

Will she know how much I love her

Did I try in every way, to show her every day

That's she's my only one

And if my time on earth were through

And she must face the world without me

Is the love I gave her in the past

Gonna' be enough to last

If tomorrow never comes

Cause I've lost loved ones in my life

Who never knew how much I loved them

Now I live with regret

That my true feelings for them never were revealed

So I made a promise to myself

To say each day how much she means to me

And avoid that circumstance

Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel

Repeat chorus

Eagle  When She Flies  By: Dolly Parton    

When I hear this song, I always think of my mother

She's been there, God knows, she's been there               She has seen and done it all                                          She's a woman, she knows how to                                Dish it out or take it all                                                 Her heart's as soft as feathers                                       Still she weathers stormy skies                                      And she's a sparrow when she's broken                         But she's an eagle when she flies

A kaleidoscope of colors                                               You can toss her around and round                              You can keep her in your vision                                    But you'll never keep her down                                    She's a lover, she's a mother                                        She's a friend and she's a wife                                      And she's a sparrow when she's broken                        But she's a eagle when she flies

Gentle as the sweet magnolia                                        Strong as steel, her faith and pride                                She's an everlasting shoulder                                        She's a leaning post of life                                            She hurts deep and when she weeps                              She's just as fragile as a child                                       And she's a sparrow when she's broken                        But she's an eagle when she flies

She's a sparrow when she's broken                               But she's an eagle when she flies                                  Oh, bless her, Lord                                                      She's an eagle when she flies

 

I was walking home from school on a cold winter day     took a shortcut through the woods, and I lost my way     It was getting late, and I was scared and alone                Then a kind old man took my hand and led me home      Mama couldn't see him but he's standing there                 And I knew in my heart, he was the answer to my prayer

Oh I believe there are angels among us                           Send down to us from somewhere up above                   They come to you and me in our darkest hour                To show us how to live, to teach us how to give             To guide us with the light of love                                  

When life held troubled times, and had me down on my  knees, there's always been someone there to come along and comfort me                                                            A kind word from a stranger, to lend a helping hand        A phone call from a friend, just to say I understand         And ain't it kind'a funny that at the dark end of the road Someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope  

Oh I believe there are angels among us                          sent down from somewhere up above                             They come to you and me in our darkest hour                 To show us how to live, to teach us how to give             To guide us with a light of love

'My Guy'

Yes, when we were young, we would pick the petals on a flower and say, "He loves me, he loves me not."   Heck, I always cheated with that little game ! For some reason, the last petal was always the one that was..

       "He loves me"

Then before you know it , those young years are all gone and you can't even reach down to pick that flower up, you find yourself married with children and grandchildren !

Your hair has turned to silver, your waist is where your butt used to be and your boobs are where your waist used to be !

Your teeth are in the glass at night and you can't even remember if you opened the refrigerator door to put something in or take it out !

 No matter what size of pantyhose you buy, those things are always around your knees and that darn wrinkle cream quit working years ago.

But one thing you know for sure is , that guy you married many years ago, will always be 'Your Guy'. Even if he leaves the seat up on the toilet, never ask for directions when you're lost, forgets your birthdays and anniversary, takes over the remote control, never takes you on romantic vacations, or thinks that a night out is going to Bob Evans and stopping at the D.Q. for a shake is your kind of evening !

That last petal you picked said, "He Loves Me" and after all these years, he still does.

So, I'll count my blessings and live with the fact that I'm getting old  and that's alright , because honey..... so is HE !

AND HE'S STILL ........ 'MY GUY'

 

"The Great Pretender"

By: The Platters

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender                                     Pretending I'm doing well                                             My need is such                                                          I pretend too much                                                     I'm lonely but no one can tell                            

Oh yes, I'm a great pretender                                      Adrift in a world all my own                                        I play the game but to my real shame                           You've left me to dream all alone                     

Too real is this feeling of make-believe                         Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal    

Oh yes, I'm a great pretender                                      Just laughing and gay like a clown                                I seem to be what i'm not you see                                I'm wearing my heart like a crown                               Pretending that you're still around 

Too real is this feeling of make-believe                        Too real when I feel what my heart can't conseal 

Oh yes, I'm a great pretender                                       Just laughing and gay like a clown                               I seem to be what I'm not you see                                I'm wearing my heart like a crown                                Pretending that you're still around                           

Still around
