been so long since the sun did shine
in this little ole’ heart of mine
body’s all tired an’ depressed
makes me think its possessed
pregnant spirit bout to burst
beginnin’ to see it’s a curse
ain’t had no lovin’ in such a long time
just hope i ain’t gotta turn to no crime
don’t know which is worse
love hunger or spirit thirst
neither one ain’t no good
but'cha know i done what i could
gotta wash away all this glum
need me a little jamaican rum
slip on my red dancin' shoes
step on out in life all new
git me a bite of somethin’ sweet
have me a little suga’ treat
gonna do more’n what i can
and git me a good-lovin’ man
gonna do more’n what i can
and git me a good-lovin’ man

I love these little songs you sing, Jenean. I swear someone could write music to these little treasures. Very sweet!

Damn, when I first started reading this, I thought, Wait a minute, is this Dylan? But No. It's Gypsy's heart singing. How perfectly beautiful.
Hi!
Hope you're having a good weekend!
btw I sent you an email earlier this week @ gypsywomanworld@gmail.com. Did you manage to get it?!
Best wishes
LOLA:)
dear nevine - well, now, if i just had a little guitar player tucked away somewhere! i just put these little things together on a shoestring so to speak and am never sure of the end or the response - and, as always, thanks ever so much, dear lady!
and dear trish - now, you know, to have one's name even thought of in the same context as dylan - way too much!!! - so i thank you with all my singin' heart! you always know "what it is"!!!
and hello there miss nora and miss lola! oh, yes, i did get your note and apologize for not having responded - but if you saw my posts this week, you know that a dear friend of ours died very tragically a few days ago and i've been more than distracted with the news of that - in any event, i do so appreciate your sweet note and promise to make my way back over to your place - at times i just "clean house" so to speak - and i do so appreciate your contacting me again! thanks much! and have a wonderful remainder of the weekend, ladies!
Why I'll be damned!! How do you manage this Jenean? I still feel that there is this secret place you turn to within yourself to get such marvellous ideas.
Lovely. We are nothing without love, right? And who better to understand that than you?
Loved it!!
Much love and hugs

there is this place i turn to within, deboshree, but it's no secret place - it's just the me of me place - know what i mean? but thanks so much for the kind words, lady! they mean a lot! glad you liked! have a glorious sunday!
