figured out and carried out, as best I could, my purpose for being alive:  for me that means being loving, honest, ethical, of service to others. . .\n\nSomeone said "why is this in ethics or spirituality?"  I cannot think of a better place to put it, and thanks for giving us something to think about.\n\nFinally, that tim McGraw song, if you liked it or thought it was corny. . . still had some good points.\n"someday I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying."  peace

Manuel Velázquez is one of the greatest of a dozen or so 'world class" classic guitar makers.\n\nIn Chapter 2, several guiding principles about ethics are discussed. The book says that an ethical act does not equal to a legal one. It mentions 4 moral standards concerning ethical dilemmas outlined by Manuel G. Velasquez as follows: 1) right: the standard concerns human's basic need and welfare, 2) justice: concerns how it can be distributed fairly among a group regarding, 3) utility: concerns the positive and negative effects it has on the public, 4) care: concerns relationship we have with other individuals.

The skull with the cowboy hat is a symbol of the CSA or Confederate States of America....When you hear someone say "The South Shall Rise Again", this is generally the organization they're talking about, which has also been connected to the Ku Klux Klan and more than one group of fascist neo-Nazis.  Several bands have also used this image to sell albums including Lynard Skinard, Pantera and Guns & Roses.  Eventhough SOME of their music can be 'southern rock', they have not been connected to the CSA or any of the other groups mentioned. \nHope I helped!

It's a great song but I too am trying to figure out what it means.The meanings I have going around in my head are probably so far off.

Think of it, like an old man or women thinking about their lives.  It is a song about reflection.  He is singing about the choices he's made in his lifetime.  The good and bad.  What he's saying is that no matter what he's done, no one else did it for him.   He did it his own way.

Here is one possible interpretation of this "camp-fire song."  The auto-formatting feature of this forum will not allow me to reprint your request in "fake book" style for all to see and so I, regrettably, must direct you to the web-source at:\n\nhttp://xenia.media.mit.edu/~kristin/songbook/OnAndOn/HoleAtTheBottomAtTheSea.html\n\nAll my best to you!

Well this quote seems to be a little cynical.  I don't know much about Mary Ellen Kelly, but my impression from this quote is that the natives are ridiculed by American's who have dubbed themselves "smart" and therefore are judgemental.  They see the drums as worthless noise when the very horns that are blown at traffic are seen as unneccessary or are objects of scorn to the natives.  It is a look at ethnocentrism and the lack of tolerance or understanding for other cultures.

To me, it signifies racism. It signifies ongoing support of the Southern Confederacy and the way of life for which they chose to fight, that of plantations living off the backs of slaves. It feels to me like the person flying it is sending the message that they still support the south (in reference to the Civil War, not just fond feelings of home...)and wish that the south would have won the war so that slavery could continue.  It signifies a smoldering resentment that AfroAmericans are now free to mingle in society. I'm sure plenty others will disagree, but that's what it signifies to me. By the way, I am white, if that affects how you interpret my response.

It's from an old Nursery Rhyme\n\nLittle Jack Horner\nSat in a corner\nEating his Christmas pie\nHe put in his thumb\nAnd pulled out a plum\nAnd said" What a good boy am I!"\n\nNow, having said that I couldn't begin to tell you if it has any underlying meaning!\n\nHere's a link to a theory on the "back story"\nhttp://www.rooneydesign.com/JackHorner.html\n\nAnd here's yet another link:\n\nhttp://www.rhymes.org.uk/little_jack_horner.htm\n\nAnd finally dear old wikipedia has a bunch of alternative rhymes that are quite amusing:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Jack_Horner

Its really good to me. To me seems to say that true strength to walk with God comes from God and not from ourselves. It appears to acknowledges that we all try to do things on our own sometimes and think we are leaning on God/letting him guide us, even when we are not and we are really trying to carry the weight on our own. But its quite upbeat and seems to remind me that even that wont separate me from him in the long term! Its a good reminder, thanks for posting it\n I dont know if this is a song written for this topic but it speaks to me about that with the bits about trying to be strong, being serious about it, but not afraid to be weak and say "I got it wrong"....

Willie Nelson sang the original tune, but Stone Temple Pilots remade the song to a more, well, modern tune that I think is better.  It is your choice.  Enjoy!

John Mellencamp had some dobro. Mike Wanchic was his man. You can really here it on the 1987 album: The Lonesome Jubilee. It is also on the Human Wheels album. Probably The Big Daddy album to. I'm too lazy to look for that c.d.
