to celebrate my birthday today I wrote myself some birthday blues. i'll be using this going forward when someone requests a birthday song at future gigs.

Happy birthday baby (buddy)
you one year older than your last
happy birthday baby (buddy)
another year has gone past

its a funny thing
as you get older
time goes flying lightening fast.
(but you be slowing down)

When you was a young-un
mama kept your candles lit
made you chocolate cake
mama kept your candles lit

but at 55 (or ?)years old
you know she'd need a Fire Permit
(let me burn some up a lil bit)

so happy birthday baby (buddy)
sing yourself some happy birthday blues
so happy birthday baby (buddy)
sing yourself some happy birthday blues

you're only one year older
damn good thing they don't come in twos!
celebrate with some happy birthday blues

Holy cow that is really good, (:
