A Stroll Though Memory, Time and Politics With Stops Along The Way
Five on Friday is the creation of our buddy Travis at Trav’s Thoughts. To join in just select five songs, visit his site and sign in to see others’ selections.
Not exactly with the theme but Ingemar Bergman’s “Smiles of A Summer Night” became the musical “A Little Night Music”. My favorite song has always been the following which seems to capture the unrestrained freedom of summer:
Retired great grandmother living in the Northwest US. Former radio Public Service Director and National Accounts Manager.
I’m a hair-dishevelled heilan’ coo,
Hamish McKay be ma name;
Welcome tae this dreichet glen
I’m cursed tae ca’ ma hame.
Depending on the mood I’m in
I’ll raise ma horns on high,
An’ if I like the look o’ ye
I’ll likely let ye by.
But should I dinnae like the look
O’ ye, then tak great care,
I’ll raise ma horns on high again,
Go on, get oot o’there!
So whether welcome yae or nae,
I’ll raise these horns sae mean,
Then ye shall ken ma meaning
By the twinkle o’ ma een.
