I went to a friend’s funeral yesterday afternoon, he was Seventy-one too, and a few weeks ago I went to see him in hospital after he had suffered a bad stroke … He was home alone, and they found him on the floor 3 days after he had the stroke … We went to school together 55 years ago … Last night I was sad and alone with my furry friend Frankie … Today is my 71st birthday, and I am emotionally appreciating life, after suffering 3 strokes of my own in recent times … Attacked below is a new song by Loner Deer, ‘Leather Hat’ and his lyrics, seem to capture the feelings of my mood and thoughts today.
Loner Deer. ‘Leather Hat’, Lyrics
Today, no one came in my team But I don’t wanna be the one Who got no friends, no buddies in the house But it’s not a big deal ’cause I never be alone Under my Leather Hat, under my leather hat
This morning I want to play, but Momma said “no” I have to clean my room but I just wanna be outside Hang out with my friends, but I don’t have many plans So, I’m just waiting in my bed and looking on the wall At my leather hat, at my leather hat Give me trust and give me wings, I guess some people want it But I ain’t looking for the fame, I don’t forget where I come from
When Grandpa drives me through the fields He tells me what I have to think about That no one tells me what to do I’m rich, I’m strong, I’m feeling good Under my leather hat, under my leather hat
Give me trust and give me wings, I guess some people want it But I ain’t looking for the fame, I don’t forget where I come from
Today, no one came in my team But I don’t wanna be the one Who got no friends, no buddies in the house But it’s not a big deal ’cause I never be alone Under my Leather Hat, under my leather hat
