@RogerMcGuinn @RogerMcguinn5 revisits a mid-century folk song by Bob Gibson that has found its place in the tradition:

Ten o’clock, all’s well, ten o’clock, all’s well
Town crier calling, swinging his bell
Ten o’clock, all’s well

@RogerMcGuinn has eyes for Black-eyed Susie in the latest free download from https://t.co/hx5caEV0FO

Black eyed Susie went huckleberry pickin’
Came home late and took a lickin’.

Love my wife and love my baby
Love my biscuits sopped in gravy.

“There is a certain kind of unruliness about Larry which I think would endear him, certainly, to Brits."

And me. @Number10cat is one of the three or four reasons I haven't deleted my X account yet

The Design
-Michael Longley

Sometimes the quilts were white for weddings, the design
Made of up stitches and shadows cast by stitches.
And the quilts for funerals? How do you sew the night?

HNY from @RogerMcGuinn

Oh of all the money that e’re I spent
I spent it in good company
and of all the harm that e’re Ive done
alas it was to none but me
for all I’ve done for want of wit
to mem’ry now I can’t recall
so fill to me the parting glass

@RogerMcGuinn says of this song:
I wrote this with Mike Settle in 1961. We shared an apartment in Greenwich Village at the time. This was the first song I ever wrote. The original melody and chords were a bit different but the lyrics are the same.
