One of my all time favourite singer, songwriters has died due to to covid 19. John Prine was 73 years old. Wrote some of the greatest lyrics in music. "That's the way the world goes round, you're up one day the next you're down, it's a half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown, that's the way he world goes round". I will be listening to my library of his songs all week.

Eddie, be sure to listen to "When I Get to Heaven". The first thing I did this morning was to play this song. It's one of his more recent offerings and it's like he knew his time was coming...One of my all time favourite singer, songwriters has died due to to covid 19. John Prine was 73 years old.

Yes. I know that great song. Do you know "I'm going steady with Iron Ore Betty she's going steady with me". She has rug burns on her elbows, I've got them on my knees.
It's the last song on his last album.Eddie, be sure to listen to "When I Get to Heaven". The first thing I did this morning was to play this song. It's one of his more recent offerings and it's like he knew his time was coming...
