I Dream a Highway

/

"I'm an indisguisable shade of twilight

Any second now I'm gonna turn myself on

In the blue display of the cool cathode ray

I dream a highway back to you.

I wish you knew me, Jack of Diamonds

Fire-riding, wheeling when I lead em up

Drank whisky with my water, sugar in my tea

My sails in rags with the staggers and the jags

I dream a highway back to you.

Gillian Welch

I met Gillian Welch after she sang some of her songs at a bar in Minneapolis. My buddy Darin was with me. I took off one of my boots and asked Gillian to sign it for me. She did. She then told me that I was the first person to ever ask her to sign their cowboy boot. She showed me her boots that she got from a shop in Nashville. They were in need of repair as were mine.

"I Shall Not Walk Alone" (excerpt)

Battered and torn, still I can see the light. Tattered and worn, but I must kneel to fight

Friend of mine, what can't you spare? I know some times it gets cold in there.

When my legs no longer carry, and the warm wind chills my bones, I reach for Mother Mary and I shall not walk alone.
