One Of The Things That I'm Glad

In 1967 I Entered Harvard As A Freshman, Confident - In The Way That Only 17-year-olds Are - That I Could Change The World. My Major Was African Studies, And My Plan Was To Travel To Tanzania, Where President Julius Nyerere Was Creating A Government Based On Democracy And Socialism.

Nobody Went Out To Pasture, And A Lot Of People Are Doing Their Best Work. Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, And Sting Are At The Top Of Their Game. I Mean, Tony Bennett Is The Coolest Guy I Ever Met! We Have To Figure Out How To Break Out Of This Age Ghetto.

I've Watched My Peers Get Better With Age And Hoped That Would Happen With Me.

Really Important Issues Are Getting Lost, So I Can Say I'm Glad To Be A Citizen Of The Planet And Do My Part.

I'm Glad I Get Singled Out For My Slide Guitar-playing, Which Isn't That Difficult To Do. I Didn't Take Guitar Lessons, But I Just Love The Way It Sounds, Almost Like The Human Voice.
