Well, Im bored, so I thought Id give you guys a bit of a challenge, cause I know theres not a lot of people that listen to the saem music I do lol.

Here it is!

Who is it by, and what is the title?

Warm yourself by the fire, son,
And the morning will come soon.
I’ll tell you stories of a better time,
In a place that we once knew.

Before we packed our bags
And left all this behind us in the dust,
We had a place that we could call home,
And a life no one could touch.

Don’t hold me up now,
I can stand my own ground,
I don’t need your help now,
You will let me down, down, down!

Don’t hold me up now,
I can stand my own ground,
I don’t need your help now,
You will let me down, down, down!

Down!

We are the angry and the desperate,
The hungry, and the cold,
We are the ones that kept quiet,
And always did what we were told.

But we’ve been sweating while you slept so calm,
In the safety of your home.
We’ve been pulling out the nails that hold up
Everything you’ve known.

Don’t hold me up now,
I can stand my own ground,
I don’t need your help now,
You will let me down, down, down!

Don’t hold me up now,
I can stand my own ground,
I don’t need your help now,
You will let me down, down, down!

So open your eyes child,
Let’s be on our way.
Broken windows and ashes
Are guiding the way.

Keep quiet no longer,
We’ll sing through the day,
Of the lives that we’ve lost,
And the lives we’ve reclaimed.

Don’t hold me up now,
I can stand my own ground,
I don’t need your help now,
You will let me down, down, down!

Don’t hold me up now,
I can stand my own ground,
I don’t need your help now,
You will let me down, down, down!

Don’t hold me up…
(I don’t need your help, I’ll stand my ground)
Don’t hold me up…
(I don’t need your help)
No! No! No!
Don’t hold me up!
(I don’t need your help, I’ll stand my ground)
Don’t hold me up!
(I don’t need your help, I’ll stand my ground)
Don’t let me down, down, down, down, down

Pretty sure your not. Last song I remember about refugees was from the 80's. You don't have to live like a refugee... Something like that.
I'll be 100 my next birthday.

I'm 99 now, you be the judge. I've been blessed with good health from my ancestors. I don't do what I used to but I get around pretty good and still have some sparkle in my eyes.

RR is no wheres near 100 he is just a tadpole in the pool of life. The only way he is older than me is if he has a CLEAR memory of the 60's :)

RR, clearly you are not the proud owner of a Norske head :) A thousand Swedes Ran through the weeds, Chased by one Norwegian. They were afraid of his freakishly large head :D 8)
