Family Reunion




Irene and Travis

A change of plans! This weekend I went to the Johnson family reunion in Brownfield, Texas. No, I'm not a Johnson, but my friend Donna's man Travis is and they kindly invited me to join the fun. I had a wonderful time. I was especially pleased to see Irene again, Travis' mom, and to see and hear Travis play some Texas Swing with the family band. My favorite part was when Travis sang, "I Ain't Never"

Well, I ain't never, I ain't never
Seen nobody like you, no, no, no
Never have I seen nobody like you

You call me up and say to meet me at nine
I have to hurry, hurry, but I'm there on time
I walk a'right up and knock on your door
The landlord says, "she
ain't a'here no more"

I ain't never, oh, darling
Seen nobody like you, boo hoo,
But I love you
Yeah, I love you, I love you just the same

You tell me sweet things that you don't mean
You've got me a'livin' in a haunted dream
You make me do things that I don't want to do
My friends all say what's wrong with you

I ain't never, oh darling
Seen nobody like you, boo hoo,
But I love you
Yeah, I love you
I love you just the same
I love you just the same
I love you just the same
