Punching Above My Weight

(David Cornwall )

I'm sure I am not the only man living who has been labeled with the above title. Colloquially in Australia, others especially friends use this terminology to describe men with partners who are above average in personality, intelligence and or looks as punching or punching above their weight irrespective of how the man presents. Basically I take it as a compliment.

V 1.
I’ve been blessed with a girl white lace confetti smiles
Quick 18 with the boys before we walked a crocheted aisle
Quiet whispers of the day some say she got it wrong
It’s not for you to judge someone better for her
will come along

V 2.
I rarely bring her flowers, never seen to fight a lot
I’ll break my back all day to provide & keep the things we got
Not buying birthday gifts I don’t think I’m a lessor man
Cause when were out on show, It’s always hand in hand

Chorus
Punching above my weight not all girls need shining knights
Some like jesters who love just willing to take up the fight
Salt of earth boots and flannel
Soft leather covered hands
Punching above my weight is not for you to understand

V 3.
I don’t drink too much, never once raising a hand
Dreams of broken chains (one day)
Dreams of owning our piece of land
Do my best to find the woman inside each and every night
Love her like there’s no tomorrow, Love her till the day that I die

Interlude

Chorus
Punching above my weight not all girls need shining knights
Some like jesters who love just willing to take up the fight
Salt of earth boots and flannel
Soft leather covered hands
Punching above my weight you don’t have to understand

Outro
Punching above my weight, Yes I’m her shining light
She’s my Lady Godiva I’m her, her flanneled knight
Punching above my weight Look away you don't understand
Punching above my weight she’s my girl 
I’m her man, (I’m her man)

So It Begins

By David Cornwall

So it Begins is the actual diary title used when it was our families turn to deal with this insidious disease. This disease throws up every kind of emotion possible and everyone reacts differently. I turned to the written word and music for my solace. So for those of you living this evil, hang tough, stay positive & don't waste a day.

A Taste of Country

By Melanie Thompson

Before I say a word or two about these lyrics, I would like to confess that I wrote them while I was hungry. Had I eaten a chicken salad sandwich, bag of chips and a sugar cookie before sitting down to write these lyrics, these lyrics may never have been written. I will also caution you to eat before reading them. Anyway, I was born in the country and raised by country folk. This song is a tip of my hat to all the country folk around the globe. Those folks who help feed the rest of us. And how blessed we are to have food. Oh Snap! I'm hungry again. Enjoy.
