"same old used to be"

I

with Arlo Guthrie on one side

Pete Seeger on the other

a cassette I picked up for a buck

at a library book sale in the 90's

some songs became favorites --

"Quite Early Morning", "Presidential Rag"

"Stealin'" -- "Pretty momma don't tell on me..."

 

II

today, at a vintage clothing store at Mahall's lanes

found a folk collection on compact disc

Dave Grisman, Bonnie Raitt, and, bless my heart

Jerry Garcia

 

not looking at the song list too closely

I spin it --

you might guess the rest

 

"Wrap your arms around me

like a circle round the sun..."

who is that singing "Stealin'"?

ah, brash rooster of delight

it's Jerry himself!
