He was a wild one. Loved "Mona Lisa Lost Her Smile". Amazing he made 86! Gives me hope. RIP J.O'.

"...Well, I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison
And I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got run over by a damned old train..."

D.A.C. sang the hell out of "You Never Even Call Me By My Name" although he didn't write it. It came from the minds of two other greats who have also passed, Steve Goodman and John Prine. RIP to all three icons. Sadly, they jes' ain't makin' 'em like 'at no more. J.O'.
