Throughout my life there have been songs where I've said "That is/could be my theme song".........listening to one of Mark's CDs today, this one's my latest:


What are/were yours?
 
Most recently, this from Arthur Sullivan's Haddon Hall with the refrain:


Though the world be bad,
It's the best to be had;
And therefore, Q.E.D.,
Though it mayn't suit you
And a chosen few,
It's a good enough world for me,
It's a good enough world for me.

 
"I'm Still Standing" by Elton John.
 
I've got a couple more years on you babe and that's all
I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall
It's not that I'm wiser, it's just that I've spent
More time with my back to the wall and I've picked up
A couple a more years on you babe and that's all
 
And, in keeping with Willie:

 
Back in the day my theme songs would have been The Pretenders "Back in the Chain Gang" and Melanie Safka "Look What They Done to my Brain".

Now it is Cream "I'm So Glad"
.

For as long as I can remember, this has been my internal background music.

As long as Willie is still with us, I can not pass up this beauty.

"Luckenbach, Texas (Back To The Basics Of Love)"


The only two things in life
That make it worth livin'
Is guitars to tune good
And firm feelin' women

I don't need my name in the marquis lights
I got my song and I got you with me tonight
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love

Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas
With Waylon and Willie and the boys
This successful life we're livin'
Got us feuding like the Hatfields and McCoys

Between Hank Williams pain songs
And Newbury's train songs
And blue eyes cryin' in the rain
Out in Luckenbach, Texas
Ain't nobody feelin' no pain

So baby let's sell your diamond ring
Buy some boots and faded jeans and go away
This coat and tie is choking me
In your high society you cry all day

We've been so busy
Keepin' up with the Jones
Four car garage and we're still building on
Maybe it's time we got
Back to the basics of love

Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas
With Waylon and Willie and the boys
This successful life we're livin'
Got us feuding like the Hatfields and McCoys

Between Hank Williams pain songs
And Newbury's train songs
And blue eyes cryin' in the rain
Out in Luckenbach, Texas
Ain't nobody feelin' no pain

Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas
With Willie and Waylon and the boys
This successful life we're livin'
Got us feuding like the Hatfields and McCoys

Between Hank Williams pain songs
And Jerry Jeff's train songs
And blue eyes cryin' in the rain
Out in Luckenbach, Texas
There ain't nobody feelin' no pain
 
Talking about Willie Nelson, one of his songs will be a future theme song for me :)

Not my theme song, but a "friend" told me that's the ringtone he has set for me when I call him.
