The 6-year-old is practicing his guitar before today's lesson and he's making up songs. So far he's got a song where every line starts with "I love..." and another where he just sings "My name is Bob Dylan" over and over again.

He’s coming through Charlotte! Last year we had to drive two hours to see him. Charlotte’s only a half hour.

Man, @mattmoran_music, in the words of my 6-year-old, “This one just sends me bruh!”:

I wanna do one thing good just one time
Nothing big, nothing wild

My 4-year-old, Ketch (at 4:30 pm): “I’m kinda tired. It’s been a rough day. I just need some chicken nuggets and a milk.”

So come back Woody Guthrie
Come back to us now
Tear your eyes from paradise
And rise again somehow
If you run into Jesus
Maybe he can help you out
Come back Woody Guthrie to us now

Don't be angry with me, darling, if I fail to understand
All your little whims and wishes all the time
Just remember that I'm kind of dumb, I guess, like any foolish man
And my head stays sort of foggy cause you're mine

I got a list of reasons I carry everywhere
And it's helpin to remind me why I shouldn't care
When I think I'm gettin weaker I read it over and over again
I got a list of reasons why you're never gonna win

Woody Guthrie died on this day in 1967. Surely his spirit lives on.

Some folks drive the bears out of the wilderness
And some to see a bear will pay a fee
And me, I just bear up to my bewildered best
And then some folks even see the bear in me

Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night
In daylight it dies

I always wondered
Why you had to go
Whatever blunder I made
I don't know
