It Just Happens by William Morrison
rec: Now I'm gettin' kinda old and gray, I never thought much about gettin' this way
But if you live long enough, day by day,-- it just happens.
But I've learned the secret of a long happy life
and I believe it's to have a lovin' wife, one who helps make your dreams come true
and brings you smiles when your feelin' blue, cause sometimes, that happens
Sung: Someone who gives you strength through your fears
Someone who will kiss away your tears
Rec; Through all of lifes crazy ups and downs,
the one who keeps you on the solid ground
and then when you're both wrinkled and gray
she'll laugh with you -- and say,
It just happens
Yeah , Life just happens..
I wrote that a little while back, actually dreamed it and then wrote it ,to my wife of fifty years this year.
BUT I finally had to quit my Banjo last week as that fiend Arthur-itis has put the pain in my arms and shoulders
to where it is no longer enjoyable. I still strum the old guitar and sing mostly Gospel but only a little at a time.
I have enjoyed Banjo Hangout for a while now and y'all have taught me a lot, I pray you will keep it up as you
are inspiring lots of pickers.
God Bless y'all now and forever

Starting to play (Learn) again after a year hiatus. fingers are 75 years old but still nimble. Wife of 47 years hasn't thrown me or my banjo out yet but gets a little testy sometimes when she can't hear the "Soaps" for the "Music"!
