Strangest Thing Your Parents Made You Do
My mom was one of those theatre moms...performed on EVERY stage in Memphis. I guess one can say she's now the Debbie Allen of Memphis. Anyway, growing up she made us do some weird things that made her proud. What did your parents do?
When I was 13 or 14, my mom signed me and 2 of my friends up for the 4-H Club Talent Show. She made us some shimmering dresses and we sang a country song - "Those Memories". We won and advanced three rounds.
Those memories of you still haunt me
Every night when I lay down
I'll always love you my little darling
Until the day they lay me down
In dreams of you my body trembles
I wake up and call your name
But you're not there, and I'm so lonesome
Without your love I'd go insane
Repeat Chorus
I close my eyes and you're there with me
Your kiss I feel, your face I see
It's not your lips now that drive me crazy
It's just your haunting memory
Just had a blast from the past!
