The prompt today is yacht rock. Thanks John for the suggestion & thanks Jim for hosting. Woo to the Hoo again 🙂 HERE are the rules & ping back.

Come on in, the water is smooth sailing. See what I did there? LOL. Before I get to my song choice, HERE is a wiki blurb on yacht rock. I’ve come to find out the water part is optional. Such a hard time choosing but an awesome time listening until I found one. I offer, Stuck in the Middle with You. Songwriters: Gerry Rafferty / Joe Egan

Well I don’t know why I came here tonight
I’ve got the feeling that something ain’t right
I’m so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I’m wondering how I’ll get down the stairs

Clowns to the left of me
Jokers to the right
Here I am stuck in the middle with you

Yes I’m stuck in the middle with you
And I’m wondering what it is I should do
It’s so hard to keep this smile from my face
Losing control, yeah I’m all over the place

Clowns to the left of me
Jokers to the right
Here I am stuck in the middle with you
When you started off with nothing
And you’re proud that you’re a self-made man

And your friends they all come crawling
Slap you on the back and say
Please
Please

Trying to make some sense of it all
But I can see it makes no sense at all
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor?
‘Cause I don’t think that I can take anymore

Clowns to the left of me
Jokers to the right
Here I am stuck in the middle with you

When you started off with nothing
And you’re proud that you’re a self-made man
And your friends they all come crawling
Slap you on the back and say
Please
Please

Well I don’t know why I came here tonight
I’ve got the feeling that something ain’t right
I’m so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I’m wondering how I’ll get down the stairs

Clowns to the left of me
Jokers to the right
Here I am stuck in the middle with you

Yes I’m stuck in the middle with you
Stuck in the middle with you
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you

Sunday Reflections: A Week in Review ~ 2/5/23

Published on by J-Dub11 Comments

On this day 80 years ago, PoPo Jimmy, B’s daddy was born. We wish him the BEST birthday ever. We will celebrate with him a little later on today when we order in from Laguna Madre. He says he doesn’t want a fuss because we do too much for him already. He & MoMo really have had a run of bad luck here in their golden years. But I’ll let you in on a little secret, it’s our turn. Everything he did for us starting out & then how he helped us when the kids came along are things we could never repay. It makes us happy to take care of him.

Alrighty, quick roll call & then away we go, on with our Sunday shenanigans.

Peace y’all. Until next time. Stay safe.

As always, more to come.
