Dave Brubeck cleaned my kitchen
Patsy Cline made ravioli
Hank Wlliams did my laundry
but there was a lonesome sock longing for a partner
Jason Webley or Etta James or Dar Williams might join me when I paint
(well it depends on what I’m painting)
Ray LaMontagne helped me pack
or maybe wallow
or maybe dream
and how would I get ready to go out on the town without Louis Prima or Ella Fitgerald?
