Charles Winans

Will always be a young man
Even though he says he’s getting old
He’d still shot gun you down if your
Stupid got to bein too pushy and bold

He’ll always be dressed in his leathers
Even though he mainly now wears over-alls
He’s faced down crazy Tex Watson
But also beautiful women have been left

Sweaty and enthralled

He’s got a tile mural down on The River
He’ll always be Charles El Wino and Chazz
He’ll always be that long distance rider
That can spin a tale of wonder and razz-a-ma-tazz

****
****

He’s been way down in the grit and grime
He’ll always be the flower child with a knife
A man who’s lived it mainly on his own terms
A man who’s walked it knowin it was his own life

He’s been dumped on cheated and lied about
He’s been turned on by so called friends
But he took it upon himself long long ago
That his word was good and good to the end

He loves his dogs and his woman
He even loves his ratty ol place
And I suppose he’d have been a lot more accepted
If he’d just not insisted so hard on

Integrity talent and grace
