Brian!

I could while away the hours, conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain.
And my head I'd be scratchin' while
my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.
I'd unravel every riddle for any individ'le,
In trouble or in pain.
With the thoughts you'll be thinkin'
you could be another Lincoln
If you only had a brain.
Oh, I could tell you why The ocean's near the shore.
I could think of things I never thunk before.
And then I'd sit, and think some more.
I would not be just a nothin' my head all full of stuffin'
My heart all full of pain.
I would dance and be merry, life would be a ding-a-derry,
If I only had a brain.

] Wonderful Ms Rockin Robin! If, you make the opening parade Thursday night, I'll be walking at the rear of our Pirates Club float handing out beads, then I'll be down at Ye Ole Pirate. Fri, Sat and Sun I will either be at the Pirate booth or down on Ye Ole Pirate from early in the morning until late in the evening!

I sooo look forward to meeting you!
