Я-таки купила лаймы. 4 штучки.
Мяты нету, так что мохито не получился. Зато получился напиток а-ля холодный чай - со льдом, соком, мякотью, с ложкой сахара и с причмокиванием корками. Кааайф...
Пальцы после выдавливания сока в бокал пахнут просто восхитительно.
Ну и немножко текстов Долли Партон.
Как-то так получилось, что я первые несколько раз, слушая песню, совершенно не вникаю в ее содержание и слышу не слова, а мелодию и ритм. А вот уже если песня мне нравится и я слушаю ее раз за разом - тогда я уже начинаю понимать, о чем собственно поют. Причем происходит это помимо моего желания. Просто во время очередного прослушивания мне вдруг приходит в голову - о, да это песня о тоске по дому! или - о, в этой песне поется про обтянутый джинсами ковбойский зад! ну и так далееСобственно, несколько текстов, которые "задели за живое". Выделила любимые строчки.
Dolly Parton - Do i Ever Cross Your Mind читать дальшеOh, sometimes I go walking through fields where we walked
Long ago in the sweet used to be
And the flowers still grow, but they don't smell as sweet
As they did when you picked them for me
Chorus:
And when I think of you and the love we once knew
How I wish we could go back in time
Do you ever think back on old memories like that
Or do I ever cross your mind
Do you ever wake up lonely in the middle of the night
Because you miss me, do you darling
Oh, and do your memories ever take
You back into another place in time
And do you ever miss the feelings
And the love we shared when you were with me, tell me darling
Or do I ever cross your mind
Oh, how often I wish that again I could kiss
Your sweet lips like I did long ago
And how often I long for those two loving arms
That once held me so gentle and closeDolly Parton - The Bargain Storeчитать дальшеMy life is like unto a bargain store
And I may have just what you're lookin' for
If you don't mind the fact that all the merchandise is used
But with a little mending it could be as good as new
Why you take for instance this old broken heart
If you will just replace the missing parts
You would be surprised to find how good it really is
Take it and you never will be sorry that you did
The bargain store is open come inside
You can easily afford the price
Love is all you need to purchase all the merchandise
And I will guarantee you'll be completely satisfied
Take these old used memories from the past
And these broken dreams and plans that didn't last
I'll trade them for a future, I can't use them anymore
I've wasted love but I still have some more
The bargain store is open come inside
You can easily afford the price
Love is all you need to purchase all the merchandise
And I can guarantee you'll be completely satisfied
My life is like unto a bargain store
And I may have just what you're lookin' for
If you don't mind the fact that all the merchandise is used
With a little mendin' it could be as good as new
The bargain store is open, come inside
The bargain store is open, come inside Dolly Parton - Tennessee Homesick Blues читать дальшеNew York City ain't no kind of place
For a country girl with a friendly face
If you smile people look at you funny
They take it wrong
The greenest state in the land of the free
And the home of the Grand Ole Opry
Is calling me back to my Smoky Mountain home
I wish I had my old fishin' pole
And was sitting on the banks of the fishing hole
Eating green apples and waiting for the fish to bite
Life ain't as simple as it used to be
Since the big apple took a bite out of me
And Lord, I'm so Tennessee homesick that i could die
Chorus:
But I ain't been home in I don't know when
If I had it all to do over again
Tonight I'd sleep in my old feather bed
What I wouldn't give for a little bitty taste
Of Mama's homemade chocolate cake
Tennessee homesick blues running through my head
Mama you can fluff my feather bed
Just as soon as I can I'm gonna head
Back to the Tennessee hills and it better be soon
Daddy you can load the rifles up
We're gonna load them dogs on the pickup truck
And take off to Calhoun Country and catch us a coon
Repeat Chorus
Eatin' grits and gravy and country ham
Go to church on Sunday with dinner on the grounds
Tennessee homesick blues are runnin' through my head
Repeat Chorus
Good Lord have mercy on a country girl
Tryin' to make a living in a rhinestone world
It's hard to be a diamond in a rhinestone world
With Tennessee homesick blues runnin' through my head
I've got those Tennessee homesick blues runnin' through my head
Tennessee homesick blues Dolly Parton - Don't Call It Loveчитать дальшеNobody believes that I really care for you
They don't think my heart is true
I don't think you agree
You know I'm a lifetime gaurantee
So if they ask you what you mean to me
Don't call it love
Heaven's above
We got a better thing, baby
Don't call it love
'cause that ain't enough
Just tell 'em you're my everything
Go on and tell 'em baby
Nobody believes we got somethin' they ain't got
They've never seen a fire this hot
They never got that far
We're burning as bright as any star
So if they ask you what your feelings are
Don't call it love
Heaven's above
We've got a better thing, baby
Don't call it love
'cause that ain't enough
Just tell 'em you're my everything
Go ahead and tell 'em baby
Feels so good, holding tight
Loving you through the night
Oh and they can call it what they like
But they ain't got it right
No, no, no
Don't call it love
Heaven's above
We've got a better thing, baby
Don't call it love
'cause that ain't enough
Just tell them you're my everything
Oooo...
Don't call it love
Heaven's above
We got a better thing, baby
Don't call it love
'cause that ain't enough
Just tell 'em you're my everything
Oh, oh, oh
Don't call it love
Heaven's above
We got a better thing, baby
Don't call it love
'cause that ain't enoughНо это я так, по верхам дискографии пробежалась.
