.His Mercy is New everY mornInG.
Put on my blue suede shoes
And I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
W.C. Handy -- won't you look down over me
Yeah I got a first class ticket
But I'm as blue as a boy can be
Then I'm walking in Memphis
Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel
Saw the ghost of Elvis
On Union Avenue
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland
Then I watched him walk right through
Now security they did not see him
They just hovered 'round his tomb
But there's a pretty little thing
Waiting for the King
Down in the Jungle Room
(Chorus)
They've got catfish on the table
They've got gospel in the air
And Reverend Green be glad to see you
When you haven't got a prayer
But boy you've got a prayer in Memphis
Now Muriel plays piano
Every Friday at the Hollywood
And they brought me down to see her
And they asked me if I would --
Do a little number
And I sang with all my might
And she said --
"Tell me are you a Christian child?"
And I said "Ma'am I am tonight"
(Chorus)
Put on my blue suede shoes
And I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
This song is by Marc Cohn. I was acquainted with this song when I was at Helipad happy hour-ing with colleagues. Helipad is a nice cozy place with interesting decor. The drinks are alright. I have not really try their liquor. I wasn't planning to drink tonight. It was one for one night and they ordered a few sets of beer. We ended up playing 5-10. To cut the story short, I was made to drink as punishment. Helipad played really nice song with a mixure of alternative rock, and acoustic feel good song. A worthy place to check out.
Anyway, back to the song, I don't really know what it was saying. The music was quite catchy with many meaninful phrases that needed between the line reading. I can only do that when I am more sober. Head is rather light and warmed. Hopefully no hang over tomorrow.
I was made team lead today. I don't know whether to be happy because of the so called promotion or be pressured because of the added responsiblity. I can't even consistently meet my own target and now I am suppose to encourage the other person to meet her target? Added responsibility and added pressure. Well, I guess I just have to take it a step at a time.
Sort of loss focus these days. I didn't see any other potential closure and I am trying to get through the day by simply carrying out the SOP. This sucks.
I want to stay focus and go for the goal. I want to drive the position to closure. God help me!!
I am really helpless and hopeless.
On a lighter note, I may be able to be happy at work after all! Somehow! LOL.
