Tradition trumps change with True Love

Ken Turetzky: True Love, Live at Bill's Records

While some free love, atheistic, vegetarian, Al Gore-worshipping, terrorist-coddling, tax-and-spend traitors to America are busy fetishizing change, I’m all about tradition.

I mean, the whole purpose of tradition is to prevent dangerous things like change. And we’ve forgotten all about tradition in this country.

Morality rules

Divorce was unthinkable in a time when people based their decisions on morals and morality and doing the thing that was moral and good. Immorality was dealt with quickly and harshly by the community. White people, I mean, morality, ruled the day.

So, even if a woman (selfishly) desired freedom from a loveless marriage, she didn’t ask her husband for a divorce! She did the right thing. She hired Fred MacMurray to ice the guy.

In the same way, traditional folk songs such as Tom Dooley and Pretty Polly recounted warmly how an ardent lover wooed and won the girl of his dreams. He took his gun and he shot her dead. That way, he figures correctly, she’ll never have anybody else but me!

Call me crazy. I’m in love!

Second in a series

Too late for Valentine’s Day but timeless nevertheless is my murder ballad, True Love, performed live at Bill’s Records and photographed by famed Ugly Guys director Lee Cates.
