John Prine

Fuck, John Prine is dying of the coronavirus.

Paradise

When I was a child my family would travel
Down to Western Kentucky where my parents were born
And there's a backwards old town that's often remembered
So many times that my memories are worn.

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
Well, I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking
Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away

Well, sometimes we'd travel right down the Green River
To the abandoned old prison down by Airdrie Hill
Where the air smelled like snakes and we'd shoot with our pistols
But empty pop bottles was all we would kill.

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
Well, I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking
Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away

Then the coal company came with the world's largest shovel
And they tortured the timber and stripped all the land
Well, they dug for their coal till the land was forsaken
Then they wrote it all down as the progress of man.

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
Well, I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking
Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away

When I die let my ashes float down the Green River
Let my soul roll on up to the Rochester dam
I'll be halfway to Heaven with Paradise waitin'
Just five miles away from wherever I am.

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
Well, I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking
Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away

Me too, but the statements from his family do not sound optimistic. I shouldn't have said "dying", I should have said "very ill". I hope so much he will be ok.

I think he already had cancer, he might be in sketchy health. I hope he beats the odds again.

GOLD INSIDE OF YOU - John Prine

Is there ever enough space between us
To keep us both honest and true?
Why is it so hard just to sit in the yard
And stare at the sky so blue?

I've got a new way of walking and a new way of talking
Honey when I'm around you,
But it gives me the blues when I've got some good news
And you're not there to bring it to.

Life is a blessing, it's a delicatessen
Of all the little favors you do.
All wrapped up together no matter the weather,
Baby you always come through.

It's a measure of treasure that gives me the pleasure
Of loving you the way I do
And you know I would gladly say I need your love badly
And bring these little things to you.

Cause you got gold
Gold inside of you
You got gold
Gold inside of you
Well I got some
Gold inside me too

Well I'm thinking I'm knowing that I gotta be going
You know I hate to say so long.
It gives me an ocean of mixed up emotion
I'll have to work it out in a song.

Well I'm leaving a lot for the little I got
But you know a lot a little will do
And if you give me your love
I'll let it shine up above
And light my way back home to you.

Cause you got gold
Gold inside of you
Cause you got gold
Gold inside of you
Well I got some
Gold inside me too

You got wheels
Turning inside of you
You got wheels
Turning inside of you

Well I got wheels
Turning inside me too

It really is sad how the media is using things like this to scare people. The guy has been fighting cancer for fucks sake. Like just about every other person who has died with COVID-19 didn't die from it, they had other serious problems that killed them.

PLEASE DON'T BURY ME

Woke up this morning
Put on my slippers
Walked in the kitchen
And died

And oh, what a feeling!
When my soul
Went through the ceiling
And on up into heaven, I did ride

When I got there, they did say
"John, it happened this way
You slipped upon the floor
And hit your head"

And all the angels say
"Just before you passed away
That these were the very last words
That you said"

"Please don't bury me
Down in that cold, cold ground
No, I'd rather have 'em cut me up
And pass me all around"

"Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size"

"Give my stomach to Milwaukee
If they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box
Just to get 'em out of here"

"Venus De Milo can have my arms
Look out! I've got your nose
Sell my heart to the junk man
And give my love to Rose"

"But please don't bury me
Down in that cold, cold ground
I'd rather have 'em cut me up
And pass me all around"

"Throw my brain in a hurricane
The blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size, oh man!"

"Give my feet to the footloose
Careless, fancy free
And give my knees to the needy
Don't pull that stuff on me"

"Hand me down my walking cane
It's a sin to tell a lie
Send my mouth way down south
And kiss my ass goodbye"

"But, please don't bury me
Down in that cold, cold ground
I'd rather have 'em cut me up
And pass me all around"

"Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size, that's right"

All the stories I've seen about John Print mention that he has had cancer. What do you want the "media" to do? Not report it all; just mention sometime next year that he got it? Say that he's feeling "poorly" and caught a "thingy". Come on, you write the headline. How about "John Prine on Respirator; Family Says He's Having Fun". Go ahead. Write it.

Compare lyricists

Hello in there John Prine

We had an apartment in the city
Me and Loretta liked living there
Well, it'd been years since the kids had grown
A life of their own left us alone

John and Linda live in Omaha
And Joe is somewhere on the road
We lost Davy in the Korean war
And I still don't know what for, don't matter anymore

Chorus:
Ya' know that old trees just grow stronger
And old rivers grow wilder ev'ry day
Old people just grow lonesome
Waiting for someone to say, "Hello in there, hello"

Me and Loretta, we don't talk much more
She sits and stares through the back door screen
And all the news just repeats itself
Like some forgotten dream that we've both seen

Someday I'll go and call up Rudy
We worked together at the factory
But what could I say if asks "What's new?"
"Nothing, what's with you? Nothing much to do"

[Chorus:]

So if you're walking down the street sometime
And spot some hollow ancient eyes
Please don't just pass 'em by and stare
As if you didn't care, say, "Hello in there, hello"


Sweet Tea Meade Skelton

The stars are out in Richmond tonight
and the feelin' is feelin' awfully right
for a cool glass of sweet tea. Under
the magnolia tree.
The world is moving
way to fast and I need to settle down
I need a glass of refreshment,
my sugary fantasy!

I want some sweet tea, darlin' you and me.
Sip it slow and the world it stays so sweet.
Let's have some sweet tea
under the magnolia tree, I'm ready
for some sweet tea, sugar down on me!


Remember those dreams I told you
about? I haven't given up there
is no doubt.But I need time to relax
and chase the world away.
I found
some comfort in that sweet brew I've
been looking
through, well I don't know about you.
But I need another glass!

I want some...Sweet Tea, darlin' you and me.
Sip it slow and the world it stays
so sweet. Let's have some sweet tea.
Under the magnolia tree, I'm ready
for some sweet tea, sugar down on me!


First, why is he sipping sweet tea under a tree at night when the stars are out? Old trees grow stronger is a thinking perfect contrast to the premise of the song about old people.

God Speed to health, John.

Liberals did not attempt to stop a drug. There are scientific protocols for new uses for drugs that must be followed so people don't get sick and die.
The "emergency use" waiver was approved by Clinton before he left office in 2001.

In summary,
The emergency use of test articles frequently prompts questions from Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) and investigators. This The need information addressees the areas of most concern: emergency Investigational New Drug (IND) requirements; IRB procedures; and informed consent requirements.


The emergency use of an unapproved use of an investigational drug or biologic requires an IND. If the intended subject does not meet the criteria of an existing study protocol, or if an approved study protocol does not exist, the usual procedure is to contact the manufacturer and determine if the drug or biologic can be made available for the emergency use under the company's IND.

The need for an investigational drug or biologic may arise in an emergency situation that does not allow time for submission of an IND. In such a case, FDA may authorize shipment of the test article in advance of the IND submission. Requests for such authorization may be made by telephone or other rapid communication means..

Trump Treatment? Are you kidding? Do you know anything about drug safety and drug testing protocol?

Without FDA involvement, I can see why the Governors were concerned. We need controlled trials with full peer reviewed documentation for a trial to be legitimate.

Trump is a lot of things, but you cannot put on that list infectious decease medical expert, Clinical practitioner, compound pharmacist, or Controlled Substances expert.

How about, "Thousands Die from Underlying Conditions" as a headline. Then we'd all be ok.

The anti-malaria drugs have been promoted on Fox News over 100 time over the last three days.

Already, Americans have begun hoarding these medications, which has led to a shortage for patients who need them to treat conditions for which the drugs are actually meant. And an Arizona man died after he and his wife ingested chloroquine phosphate, rather than hydroxychloroquine, upon hearing the antimalarial drugs discussed on Fox News.

John Hiatt seems a little more upbeat and has that texas blues voice.

I confuse John Prine with Leonard Cohen.
