I have my doubts sometimes About the ethics of the so-called fairer ***
Fair about what?
But I find time goes by
And one forgives as one forgets
And one does forget
God bless the potholes
Down on memory lane
God bless the potholes
Down on memory lane
Everything that happens to me now
Is consigned to oblivion by my brain
I remember my father
My brother of course
I remember my mother
I spoke of her earlier and I remember that
I remember the smell of cut grass And going off to play ball in the morning
Funny story about that
Now I used to pitch
I could get the ball over the plate
But anyway, this one time
I must of thrown a football around or something The day before
I walked about fourteen kids in a row
Cried
Walked off the mound
Handed the ball to the third baseman And just left the field
Anyway, many years later
I brought the woman who was to become my Second wife - God bless her To meet my father for the first time
They exchanged pleasantries
I left the room for a moment It was the first he time had met her you understand When I came back
He was telling her the story
Right off the bat
About how I had walked fourteen kids Cried and left the mound
Next time he met her told her the same Goddamn story!
God bless the potholes
Down on memory lane
God bless the potholes
Down on memory lane
I hope some real big ones open up
And take some of the memories that do remain
