sunny florida road
(bruce springsteen)
At sixteen she quit high school to make her fortune in the promised land
She got a job behind the counter in an all night hamburger stand
She wrote faithfully home to mama
Now mama don't you worry none
From small things, mama
Big things one day come

It was late one Friday he pulled in out of the dark
He was tall and handsome; first she took his order, then she took his heart
They bought a house up on the hillside
Where little feet soon would run
From small things, mama
Big things one day come
Oh but love is fleeting
it's sad but true
But when your heart is beating
You don't wanna hear the news
She packed her bags:and with a Wyomie County real estate man
 
She ran down to Tampa
In an El Dorado Grande
She wrote back home
Dear Mama
Life is just heaven in the sun
From small things, mama
Big things one day come

Well she shot him dead
On a sunny Florida road
When they caught her all she said
Was she couldn't stand the way he drove

Back home lonesome Johnny
Prays for his baby's parole
He waits on the hillside
Where the Wyomie waters roll
At his feet and almost grown now
A blue-eyed daughter and a handsome son
Well from small things, mama
Big things one day come
Well from small things, mama

"Florida Fences"
 
"Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above,
Don't fence me in.
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
Don't fence me in.
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze,
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees,
Send me off forever but I ask you please,
Don't fence me in."
 
some fences,
like the one on the left,
 keep cattle at bay
others, like the one on the right
-which was installed for the
Republican National Convention
in Tampa-
 keep democracy at bay...

Bowling Green, Florida

 an abandoned (?) trailer park,
BOwling Green, FLA
"murder in the trailer park" -
michael timmins, a cowboy junkies song
 Murder tonight in the trailer park Mrs. Annabelle Evans found
With her throat cut after dark
Her pockets turned inside out
Her dresser drawers turned upside down
Anna's neighbor Peg, identifies the body Lets out a hollow kind of sound
Homicide is tying yellow ribbons Around her silver Air Stream
Red cherries slashing up the night Cutting through that cordoned crime scene
There's been a murder In the trailer park tonight
Murder tonight in the trailer park
Pack your things, Ann MarieWe're heading west
We're going to make a fresh startI've been saving pennies
Been looking forward to this day
No time for questions are you coming
Or are you going to stay?
Crosstown at the Waterton
George Evans is sitting tall and tight
Buying drinks for all the regulars
Bragging about how them bones
Danced for him tonight
There's been a murderIn the trailer park tonight
Murder tonight in the trailer park
Faceless man counting crumpled bills
Hotel neon fights the dark
TV set in the corner, they're talking murder
On the late-night news
He turns down the sound
Waits for the sports
He only wants to know
Did I win or did I lose?
There's been a murderI
n the trailer park tonight
Murder in the trailer park
There's been a murder
In the trailer park tonight,
yeah yeah
There's been a murderIn the trailer park
Murder
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
There's been a murder
In the trailer park tonight
 tonight
