She always knows just what to say.


Man, I had the wine glass in hand. I was about to take off my shoes, put my feet up ... I'll just do, I'm gonna do the Send You On Your Way song. Thank you so much, you're sweet, this is your Send You On Your Way song.

Must have walked ten million miles
Must have walked ten million miles
Wore some shoes that weren't my style
Ten million miles.

I've been kind, I've told some lies
Like everyone whose lived or died
Like everyone who's ever tried
To walk ten million miles.

I memorize and I forget
Do some things that I regret
Wish for things I never get
Walk in the rain and get wet

Must have walked ten million miles
Must have walked ten million miles
So think before you criticize
Ten million miles.

Traveled around from place to place
Wore some rags around my waist
Other times I dressed up lace
But I always searched for your sweet face

You ought to come sometime for tea
Maybe we could see the sea
Talk alot, or let things be
Just enjoy the mystery

I must have walked ten million miles
Must have walked ten million miles
Wore some shoes that weren't my style
Fell into the rank and file
So just say I was here awhile
A fool in search of your sweet smile
Ten million miles.

There is without a doubt a Patty song for every occassion. heather, I don't know how you missed out for SO long! That must make us terrible friends for not introducing you sooner. So sorry! =( Steph - perfect post for leaving, and I love that you included her intro from the live version - that is one of my favorite things!!!

I [heart] Flaming Red. Flaming Red, Tony, Mary (the song, not the Mrs. H)- it is a disservice to the world that you don't have those on your CD, Heather, but it's better that you have some than nothing... [sigh]

Minus 600 points for all of us for letting Heather go this long without.

no wait wait ... i played "living with ghosts" for you when we were in mississippi in november. but i also played several other cd's at the same time, so maybe you don't remember.

chief, long ride home, living with ghosts ... are three of my favorites that immediately come to mind.

ROFL at the Dixie Chick thing. Seriously. I have not smiled all evening (sick kid) and i needed that. *snicker*

I can't wait!!

Liz. Steph has definitely mentioned her to me before. And I had planned to rip all of her CDs while she was here, but time got away from us.


I remember you playing CDs for me. Specifically I remember one Sandra McCracken song that I loved, but the rest has blurred together. I think you played Mindi Smith for me?????

Rolling on the Floor Laughing - ROFL

I should have let Lane answer that. *snicker*

Mary, the CD arrived. I am waiting on my kids to leave me alone (ie go to bed) before I try to listen.
