| O&A Board Veteran Registered: May. 00  | Waylon Jennings passed away today at his home in Arizona. Considered one of the original country outlaws, along with Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson, he had 16 #1 hits and helped defined the country rebel attitude that was popular in the 70's and 80's. He was also famous for signing the theme song to "The Dukes of Hazzard". Waylon Jennings was 64. They'd rather give you a song than diamonds or gold. Lonestar belt buckles and old faded levis, And each night begins a new day. If you don't understand him, an' he don't die young, He'll prob'ly just ride away. Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys. Don't let 'em pick guitars or drive them old trucks. Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such. Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys. 'Cos they'll never stay home and they're always alone. Even with someone they love. Cowboys like smokey old pool rooms and clear mountain mornings, Little warm puppies and children and girls of the night. Them that don't know him won't like him and them that do, Sometimes won't know how to take him. He ain't wrong, he's just different but his pride won't let him, Do things to make you think he's right. Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys. Don't let 'em pick guitars or drive them old trucks. Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such. Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys. 'Cos they'll never stay home and they're always alone. Even with someone they love.  Sometimes we can choose the path we follow. Sometimes our choices are made for us. And sometimes we have no choice at all. | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Jan. 01 | Many people dont realize that he gave his seat on Buddy Holly's plane to the Big Bopper. He cheated death then but age caught up with him. Blame it all on my roots, I showed up in boots And ruined your black tie affair The last one to show, the last one to know The last one you thought you’d see there I saw the surprise, and the fear in his eyes When I took his glass of champagne Then I toasted you, said honey we may be through But you’ll never hear me complain Chorus Cause I’ve got friends in low places Where the whiskey drowns and there beer chases My blues away and I’ll be OK Hey, I’m not big on social graces Think I’ll slip on down to the Oasis Oh I’ve got friends in low places I guess I was wrong. I just don’t belong But then I’ve been there before Everything’s all right, I’ll just say goodnight And I’ll show myself to the door Hey, I didn’t mean to cause a big scene But give me an hour and then I’ll be as high as this ivory tower That you’re livin’ in Repeat Chorus  AOL/AIM - oanda1027fm | ||||
