Lyrics by Robert Earl Keen:

I see this woman everyday
Dancin' on the corner at the Gas & Pay
Whirlin' and a-twirlin' in the bright sunshine
With her earbuds on and a cardboard sign
They say that she once was a workin' girl
It's a wigged out, weired out, wild and a wacky world

Get ready for confetti, hey hey hey
Get ready for confetti, hey hey hey
Get ready for confetti everyday
(Hey hey hey) everyday

I knew this psychic many years ago
He'd been abducted by a UFO
They took him to another galaxy
He read their fortunes and they set him free
He once was very famous scientist
Said livin' in the future is to hard to resist

I play the ponies and I look for clues
Hit the highway and I pay my dues
I mind my business as I walk the line
With my earbuds on and my cardboard sign
And when they say to go, I'll go
You never know what you don't know

Get ready for confetti, hey hey hey
Get ready for confetti, hey hey hey
Get ready for confetti
Get ready for confetti, hey hey hey
Get ready for confetti, hey hey hey
Get ready for confetti everyday
Get ready for confetti, hey hey
Get ready for confetti, hey hey
Get ready for confetti everyday
Everyday
Everydaaaaaay

One of my favorite pictures from Meeting of the Minds 2012. I have this one hanging on my wall at home...

If you enlarge the picture by clicking on it you will see all the smiling faces in the crowd.

Closing in on Show Time in Key West...

Marty Muse, me, and Bill Whitbeck right behind the stage in Key West just a few hours before show time.
These guys are amazing talents and are part of the unique sound of Robert Earl Keen's music.

Rich Brotherton!

Rich posing for a shot with his guitar. He had just given me the tour of his highly modified travel guitar.

It sounded great during the REK sound check!
