Song Circle Disclaimer Talking Blues
Dick Thies
Now ya go to song circle, let me tell you what to do
Gotta find a disclaimer that’s right for you
Something that’s fun, but sorta true
Something that explains what you can’t do
For lack of abilities There’s lots of possibilities
Ya know I’m getting’ kinda old and I forget some stuff
My brain can’t work on the lines that are tough
I could read the words from the old Blue Book
But my eyesight’s kinda shaky so its hard to look
That font’s kinda small I think they changed the words
My right shoulder’s acting up and it makes me kinda blue
Got some rotator cuff damage with some tendonitis too
I could hardly make my fingers go, to do my banjo pickin’
And holding that heavy banjo it, well it bothered like the dickens
So I’m doing my therapy, tryin’ to work on my dexterity
So I’m doing my therapy, tryin’ to work on my dexterity
Now playing while your singing requires some skill
And having an audience, makes my stomach go ill
Well I haven’t practiced in an awfully long while
I think if I did I could develop some style
Voice beyond its prime & I’m lousy with a rhyme
But maybe I’ll try it just one more time.
