Just having fun guys. Was reading some negative posts and the words just came.


The Orange Blood Trail

Wounded, bleeding suffering profusely.
Barely breathing, and just barely alive;
Been that way since twenty oh five.

An orange blood trail streaming along the ground.
The once proud Vols unceremoniously beaten down.
But the spirit remains regardless the painful groan and howl;
Defiant despite it all, the head lifts, there’s still a snarl and a growl.

Wounded, bleeding suffering profusely.
Barely breathing, and just barely alive;
Been that way since twenty oh five.

An orange blood trail drips from a serious wound;
Misery it seems just won’t leave the Vols alone.
False friends and foes laughed and laughed at the sight;
Said cover the carcass with a blanket and say “goodnight.”

Wounded, bleeding suffering profusely.
Barely breathing, and just barely alive;
Been that way since twenty oh five.

Then along came Lyle Allen Jones Junior.
A high octane booster and troubleshooter;
Most refer to the man by the name of Butch.
A man long known for his mediocrity putsch.

Wounded, bleeding suffering profusely.
Barely breathing, and just barely alive;
Been that way since twenty oh five.

The orange blood trail is ending.
Wounds are healing and mending.
What was left for dead in twenty oh five;
Is on the way back and very much alive.

Here's a little song I wrote. You might want to sing it note for note. Don't worry. Be happy.

Said if you want to call me baby
Just go ahead now
And if you like to tell me maybe
Just go ahead now
And if you want to buy me flowers
Just go ahead now
And if you like to talk for hours
Just go ahead now

I ain't as good as I once was
My how the years have flown
But there was a time back in my prime
When I could really hold my own
