If it’s not working, email me at tomwernigg@gmail.com, and I’ll try to help you out. Also email me any comments you have about the blog or songs.

Here are the lyrics to the new song.
Luanne(c) by Tom Wernigg [6/13]
Luanne, you got me eating from your hand
Luanne, you’re busy making other plans
Luanne, you never treat me like a man
Oh, don’t leave me now Luanne
Luanne, you’ve really got me in a jam
Luanne, your promises are made of sand
Luanne, you’re with your boyfriend in Japan
Luanne, you write me post cards with a crayon
Oh, don’t leave me now Luanne
I worked so long to get you, Luanne, I had to beg you to be mine
I never thought the day would come, you’d treat me so unkind
Oh, don’t leave me now Luanne
Verse 3
Luanne, you got me eating from your hand
Luanne, you’ve really got me in a jam
Luanne, you shipped me off to Vietnam
Luanne, I’m begging you to understand
Oh, don’t leave me now Luanne
Oh, don’t leave me now Luanne
No, don’t leave me now Luanne
Tomorrow I’d like to talk about irony and humor. The former is essential to any art, I believe. The second, well, it sure helps it go over.
