Listening To Patsy

Memories of Formica kitchens And 2-burner Hotpoint stoves Lipstick on a menthol butt Costume pearls in rows Perfume from the five and dime Drive In’s on the field A promise made a promise kept And love — that time can’t steal (Listening To Patsy Cline: July 4th, 2025)

Me too, Jan. That song was written by Willy Nelson and launched his songwriting career. Thanks
