You know how much I love the Oldies. Well, I think it’s only fitting today that I dedicate a few songs to the man who has taken up many hours of my life in recent months — David Jungerman.
Here are the titles, links and sample lyrics.
:: Western Movies, The Olympics, 1958.
To save my soul I can’t get a date,
Baby’s got it tuned on channel eight.
Now Wyatt Earp and the Big Cheyenne
They’re comin’ thru the TV shootin’ up the land.
Ah um my baby loves the Western movies.
My baby loves the Western movies,
Bam, bam, shoot ’em up Pow.
Ah um my babe loves the Western Movies.”
:: Born to Be Wild, Steppenwolf, 1968
Get your motor runnin’
Head out on the highway
Lookin’ for adventure
And whatever comes our way
Yeah Darlin’ go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space
:: Ramblin’ Gamblin’ Man, Bob Seger, 1969
But I got to ramble (ramblin’ man)
Oh I got to gamble (gamblin’ man)
Got to got to ramble (ramblin’ man)
I was born a ramblin’ gamblin’ man
:: Desert Skies, Marshall Tucker Band, 1977
Won’t you bury me with my chaps on
And my six-gun strapped to my side
So I can watch the moon a-hidin’
In the desert sky
Hidin’ in the desert sky
:: You Talk Too Much, Joe Jones, 1960
You talk too much
You worry me to death
You talk too much
You even worry my pet
You just talk
Talk too much

And he’s still talking, undoubtedly, even as he sits in the Jackson County Detention Center, puzzled at how he could possibly have outsmarted himself.
Thankfully, though, his “shoot ’em up Pow” days are over.

He’ll sit in there and run his mouth to the other inmates and they’ll make a deal in exchange for ratting him out, so he may yet do some good for someone.
Do we really want to relate the pleasure that music brings to this? I can’t think of anything vile enough to call him.
What astonishes me is the arrogance (ignorance?) of thinking that flapping his lips wouldn’t come back to bite him in the butt.
I am just glad the Pickert family will have some justice. His wife spoke at the “March for our Lives” protest and she broke my heart. This man is evil and we will all sleep better knowing he is off the streets.
