Woot woot Day 80, boo-yah ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ

Guess what, guess what, guess what ๐Ÿ˜

My husband got me a new ukulele ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฅฐ

Unfortunately, I have already recorded my Day 80 when the (surprise) package arrived and plus, we still need to find a cable for it. YEP! Cable! Electric ukulele! Whaaat???!!!

๐Ÿคฃ

My husband of mine has too much faith in me. I still suck playing with regular uke and he got me an electric one???? ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜…

Back to Day 80. I tried playing Eric Clapton's song called River of Tears. But I butchered it ๐Ÿ˜…

Now, as I said, I already recorded Day 80 when my new ukulele arrived, right. Well I tried playing this song and it sounded good, muuuccch better than my regular uke. But since I have had recorded the following, I will still share the following ๐Ÿ˜ However, am soooo excited to record with my electric in near future. Maybe after my 100th day? Let's see ๐Ÿ˜Ž

For now, here is the lyrics to River of Tears โค

It's three miles to the river
That would carry me away
Two miles to the dusty street
That I saw you on today

It's four miles to my lonely room
Where I will hide my face
And about half a mile to the downtown bar
That I ran from in disgrace

Lord how long have I got to keep on running
Seven hours seven days or seven years?

All I know is since you've been gone
I feel like I'm drowning in a river
Drowning in a river of tears
Drowning in a river
Feel like I'm drowning
Drowning in a river

In three more days, I'll leave this town
And disappear without a trace
A year from now, maybe settle down
Where no one knows my face

I wish that I could hold you
One more time to ease the pain
But my time's run out and I got to go
Got to run away again

Still I catch myself thinking
One day I'll find my way back here
You'll save me from drowning
Drowning in a river
Drowning in a river of tears
Drowning in a river
Feels like I'm drowning
Drowning in the river

Oh, how long must this go on?
Drowning in a river
Drowning in a river of tears
