It’s Rainin’ at my favorite Honky Tonk
words and music by Dr BLT © 2008

I got the call from Rockwell
earlier today
he told me that his friend had passed away
big dark clouds surrounded
my favorite honky tonk
tears fell down
just like a heavy rain

it’s rainin’ at my favorite honky tonk
the place where they play my favorite songs
tears are flowin’ down the street
now that this great man is gone
it’s rainin’ at my favorite honky tonk

I heard he kept the place alive
I heard he made it move
a pillar of this great community
I didn’t have the pleasure
of getting close to him
but I saw the clouds of joy and pain
you see

(chorus)

I don’t know, dear Lord
why you gave me this song
I didn’t know him
until he was gone
I guess it’s just to say to
all my friends at Trout’s today
that I feel their rain
at my favorite honky tonk
(chorus)

Welcome to Part I of the very first Alvis Edgar Wannabes Trivia Quest involving our very first single as Alvis Edgar Wannabes.  I'm Dr BLT of the Alvis Edgar Wannabes and I'll be your host.  Today, you're being asked questions about She Don't Even Know how to Dance, the very first song ever released by the Alvis Edgar Wannabes.

1.  Here's the first: What 2 words does Alvis Edgar Wannabe member Hank Ray utter at the end of the song after the music ends?  

Question 2 can be found here:

Bakersfield Sound Underground

http://www.bakersfieldsound...


You must get both answers correct to win.  Post them in the comments section over there (here too, if you wish).  The winner will receive the song you're hearing right now, provided you've activated the play station attached to this blog entry.  This is our first single ever released as Alvis Edgar Wannabes, under my very own AmeriKERNa independent label. 

Good luck!

 

If you didn't win, you can find the song here, on the as-yet-uncompleted

Trout's Tall Tales CD:
AEW Single

It's as easy as that (well there are some fine details associated with winning the prize that have to do with kissing NL's butt, but we won't get into that right now).

Today's Dr BLTune involves a little Dr BLTrivia.  The song, my reply to a bit of blog flogging I fell prey to right here lately, features a local mystery artist.  See if you can figure out just who that artist is. 

Without further ado, I give you Sour Grapes and Lemons (slightly edited mix).

Whiners, Bako-bitches and Dr BLT wannabe's: I've tried to take your sour grapes and lemons and make sweet wine and lemonade out of them.  Feel free to sample my wares.

Here are the lyrics only, the song will be introduced in various mixes and spread out over many, many monotonously consecutive blogs.  Without further ado, I give you...

Sour Grapes and Lemons

(Dr BLT's Bittersweet Tribute to Bako-bitches, whiners and BLT wannabes)

words and music by Dr BLT copyright 2008 AmeriKERNa Music

 

I rarely brag about the days

 I was on MTV

so I don't know why they would

throw these sour grapes at me

I rarely brag about the time

you saw me at the top

of some best 40 list of '06

songs that really rock

 

Chorus:

sour grapes and lemons

no, it ain't hell, it's heaven

I'll make sweet wine

from their sour grapes

and lemonade from their lemons

sour grapes and lemons

sour grapes and lemons

all they ever give to me are 

sour grapes and lemons

 

too busy kissin' NL's butt

to put out many blogs

and so they criticize me

for bein' a blog hog

NL and dizzy hold a grudge

but they both wanna be me

and gbraino cries

'cause he's not in my

family tree

(chorus)

 

there's kindra69

and twinkie

and there's japo too

too busy getting off

on NL's word

for women's boobs

I tossed in twinkie

but she didn't go there

'kept the peace

the silenceclub remaining mum

'went up in smoke you see

(chorus)

 

thank God there's folks

like Captain, Annie, Hank

and OK too

thank God that matt

won't ban a single thing I say or do

losthills wants me to lose the hat

wahwah and whine all day

monopolies are 'caused by folks

who've got nothin' to say

(who ain't got sh#@$ to say, in unedited version)

(return to chorus)

I don't want to be stuck with a whole row of consecutive blogs.  I don't want this to become Dr BLTopia.  That's why I'm urging the whiners here to contribute more.  If you don't do that, and just continue to bitch, I'm going to write a song about it and post it right here several consecutive times in protest.  That's all.  

Peace.  Out!

When you're waiting for important information at the other end of the line, and you're put on hold, isn't it nice to at least have some background music?  Well, for those who are sitting at the edges of their chairs in anticipation of the release of my interview with Chad Vegas, I've got more than simply elevator music  for you.

This is the latest song added to my forthcoming soundtrack for the interview between myself and Vegas, dubbed Heading for Vegas. 

This song was born of a literary debate between myself and Sacramento emergency medical doctor and attorney Michael Newdow, who has grabbed national and international headlines over the past several years over his tireless efforts to eradicate the term "under God," from the pledge of allegiance. 

Without further ado, I give you, One Nation Under God.

That's a phrase I don't hear applied to me too much.  And the probable response (according to one post office employeed) is that the post office won't back my plan to raise money for the Buck Owens Resource center that assists those with heart conditions and diabetes, all because of the title of one song on CD.  That song? 

Catch details and hear a sample of the song at:
