Posted December 12, 2020 One of greats is now gone at 86 years old. Sad because COVID was involved. My father served with him in the Army. True story. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 13, 2020 RIP Charley Pride! At the time I graduated from High School in 1971, my favorite song was “I’m Just Me” and it remains my favorite Charley Pride song because I thought it was about me. Here are the lyrics: Down at the railroad station there's people gettin' on Some are a goin' north some are a goin' south I'm just goin' to be gone Some people are born to be takers others just want to give Some people live just to love but I just love to live For I was just born to be exactly what you see Nothing more or less I'm not the worst or the best I just try to be exactly what you see today and every day I'm just me When people say their life is rough I wonder compared to what Some are wantin' more and more's gettin' less I just want what I've got Some want to live on a hill others down by the sea Some want to live inside high walls I just want to live free For I was just born... Oh I was just born to be exactly what you see today and every day I'm just me. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
