I started writing this song, then it took off on it's own and headed in a completely different direction. Can't say I'm unhappy about it, just surprised as usual!

In the words of James Taylor, It's me and my guitar. Always in the same mood! Then again, maybe my guitar is just humoring me - sigh -
Just me, I'm an old Folksinger that still plays out once in a blue moon. Thank you for listening to my primitive acoustic songs. I am a retired Army Bandsman, a certified Wall Wacker, and am currently a teacher. Next time I retire I am going back into Folksinging. It's the perfect occupation really, no hope of fame and fortune and definately keeps me humble. Folksinging just naturally makes me a better person I s'pose.

Story behind the song
I had my own reasons for writing it, but I'm sure the song had just as good a reason for going off on it's own. We've agreed to disagree and remain friends
Lyrics
One In A Thousand Charles W - T Consaul 1. You're gonna break a thousand hearts The day you ride away with me A thousand boots will kick the dust And come back from it empty But, I can't be sorry anymore I've got the love that I came for I'm just grateful I'm not just Any one in a thousand C: Only one hat will hit the post Only one hand will grab the brass ring Only one eye will see the nugget Buried in the stream You've made me a humble man Grateful to be what I am The only one in your eyes Not just one in a thousand 2. A lot of eyes look cold and hard As they look for a sign of shame But now that you're teamed up with me They're bound to know our name We're gonna raise a fmaily Give that name some room to breath Soon you can speak that name to Any one in a thousand Chorus Repeat first verse
