What a great day !!!! It’s February 25th in Chicago and it’s 62 degrees, OMG. This like never happens. I’m pretty sure we are going to have either a blizzard tomorrow or a tornado 😉 . That you can bet on it!!!! Either way I don’t care b/c it’s beautiful today and that’s all you can ever really count on.
Okay it’s SLS and the prompt was kind of confusing so I just went to my “Go to Guy” (the husband) and he figured it out for me. He tried to explain what it was and I still don’t get it but he came up with a song for me…This is what the prompt looks like from Mr. Jim. “This week the theme is to find a song that was not originally released as an album single, or never became a single.“ So if this song doesn’t follow the prompt Mr. Jim, blame the husband 😉 …
This song comes from an amazing country singer who we just lost too soon. I think you’ll enjoy this.
Just off of the two-lane where the school bus used to stop
Was a little wooden A-frame with a yellow tin roof top
One day it was raining on this world
She said “have you ever really, really ever kissed a girl?“
Baby I’ll be your Huckleberry, you don’t have to double dare me
If the storm gets wild and scary count on me to be right there
You’re so extra ordinary sweet like maraschino cherries
We’ll grow up and we’ll get married
I’m gonna be your Huckleberry
Later on that summer we went to the county fair
They had a brand new roller coaster and everyone was scared
It was two bucks to experience the thrill
She said “come on boy let’s get in line I’ll ride it if you will”
Baby I’ll be your Huckleberry, you don’t have to double dare me
If the ride gets wild and scary count on me to be right there
You’re so extra ordinary sweet like maraschino cherries
We’ll grow up and we’ll get married
I’m gonna be your Huckleberry
Snuck off on a slow dance at the junior/senior prom
Went lookin’ for some romance before I had to get her home
Steamin’ up the windows of my car
She said “until I get my wedding ring boy we can’t go that far”
Baby I’ll be your Huckleberry, you don’t have to double dare me
If the world gets wild and scary count on me to be right there
You’re so extra ordinary sweet like maraschino cherries
We grew up and we got married
Now look at those three little Huckleberries
It made me smile 🙂 … I hope it brightens your day too.
A perfectly lovely song Scarlet, thanks for sharing this.
Thanks for stopping by Mr. Jim … Can always count on the husband for great music 🌻🌻
Nice choice. I hadn’t heard it before, but I’ve liked lots of his songs. Yes, gone too soon <3
Thanks for stopping by. It’s been awhile as the arm has been healing since I broke it back in December. Hope all is well with you Mz. Ghostmmnc …
