Questions are not 'wierd'. Not to have questions

arise is wierd! Perchance staying with the question

can be more usefull than persuing the answer.

Oft times when I find myself obsessed with

finding answers, a song reappears. (Do not remember

by whom.) " Relax your mind,

Relax your mind,

All you gotta do is,

Relax your mind. "

In Peace: John

John & Friends,

 

The great black folksinger Huddie Leadbetter, better know as

Leadbelly, said on a great Folkways record including his spoken words

with the music: Relax your mind, relax your mind, and you will live a

great long time. Perhaps this is part of the song you're thinking of?

 

yours in the bonds,

eric

Hola Eric: Quite possibly the same song. Also possible: As the

words from sages are re-worked or changed to fit different 'ages', so

is Folk Wisdom often changed to fit a new audience. Would not

be the first time for Leadbelly. John
