Pope, I am not even sure if it is a real song. All I know is when my Dad had a bit to much to drink he would start singing that song along with.......pick me up on your way down. LOL His favorite thing to call his friends .........Kracker ass. Go figure. He doesn't drink now but he was funny then.

this one is from my childhood. i use to run around the house as a little girl singing from the top o' my lungs:

"Runaway Train" by Soul Asylum
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
I promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now,
I'm in too deep, there's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray
Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Can you help me remember how to smile?
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded?
Life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else's known
Here I am just a-drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train
And everything seems cut and dried,
Day and night, earth and sky,
Somehow I just don't believe it
Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughing at the rain
A little out of touch, a little insane
It's just easier than dealing with the pain
Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Runaway train, never coming back
Runaway train, tearing up the track
Runaway train, burning in my veins
I run away but it always seems the samecloser

This is my own personal anthem ... I wrote it about 4 years ago and so far it is coming true ... all except the cabin by a stream part .... Maybe one day ....

This is my own personal anthem ... I wrote it about 4 years ago and so far it is coming true ... all except the cabin by a stream part .... Maybe one day ....
If my life were perfect
And I could live my dream
I’d be writing music
In a cabin near a stream
My babies would surround me
Humming my simple tunes
And when the sun fell from the sky
I’d share my moons with youI’d wake up each morning
In our feather bed
I’d feel your warmth beside me
And hear your steady breath
My heart would know the peace of
A lover and a friend
A though our love would grow and change
It would never ever endMy children would all grow up
Strong and proud and free
They would grow up knowing
The best there was of me
They would have the courage
To make a better choice
And never be afraid to
Always trust that inner voiceWhen My life is over
And they carry me away
I will leave some wisdom
Behind me from the grave
Its voice will be my music
And the words my children speak
Its message would be one of Love
And the strength we find in peaceBobsGirl
