Blue Holiday
Don't matter how bright the day
or how new the moon
Trouble is always in sight
and my mood is always Blue
Even if I pray
before I start the day
and give The Father his due
Weary is just down the street
and my my mood is bound to be Blue
Lord, take me now
cause I'm just about through
ain't no use in carryin' on
cause my mood is always Blue
Trouble is always in sight
and my mood is always Blue
Even if I pray
before I start the day
and give The Father his due
Weary is just down the street
and my my mood is bound to be Blue
Lord, take me now
cause I'm just about through
ain't no use in carryin' on
cause my mood is always Blue

Dedicated to the memory of Ms. Billie Holiday born on this day in 1915. Billie Holiday, like so many of our young girls, was the victim of sexual assault at an early age. However, women of all ages are being assaulted even as I type these words. Big thanks to Xavier for promoting awareness.

Thank you ever so much for crafting this in support of ending sexual violence. I stand with Xavier in sharing his sentiments to you!
Thanks to both of you really, you and Xavier. This is lovely. I've been listening to Billie lately (You've changed). Keep cookin'...
Thank you for bringing to light an issue that has been hidden. Didn't know about Billie's assault. Sadly, its not only women now but men and boys too are being assaulted.
