My favorite Bo Diddley song.  Lyrics by (who else?) Willie Dixon, who also plays bass.

*************

“Oh, can’t you see

Oh, You’ve misjudged me.

I look like a farmer, but I’m a lover

You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover.”

R.I.P.

Don’t know why I haven’t heard more of this song.  It’s timeless, and it’s Willie Dixon.

****************

You can crush any country in a matter of weeks

But it don’t make sense, you can’t make peace.

*****************

Remeber, Senator, when you’re reaching out to those backwards, bitter, confused, uneducated, small town Americans: “Gee” is right, and “Haw” is left. 

Bobby Marchan, with a message for Rev. Wright and his congregation.

“We’ve got to open our hearts, and understand

It’s not the color that makes a man.”

John Lee Hooker

“Democrats put us on our feet
These crazy women they voted ‘em out.”

*************************************

“It won’t be long before election time.
Democrats get back in.
I know I’ll get shoes, I’ll get clothes
When the Democrats get back in again….”
