about

Rohlfie had a favorite square dance partner back in the 6th grade... not long after the pop song "Walk Away Renee" had it's chart heyday. Her name was Renee... Rohlfie liked her a lot.... but it was only a puppy crush.

This song wrote itself after hearing that song on Pandora some 50 years later:

lyrics

Step into this big ‘ol house with your hippy braids… and innocent smile. Fade like arctic ice… fade like time before the ghosts… fade the modern world away… for a petticoat beauty and her ragamuffin host.

Creeping vines can restrain… that’ll never do… dreams can help you fly… but please don’t misconstrue… promise for the dream… illusion for the real. Go on … walk away, Renae…turn the dancing wheel.

Oozing old-world charm… sashay down the jaded hall. Bucha ya gotta face the ghosts… warts... mist... regrets and all. You can criticize … but they won’t listen well. And i guess we can't know... 'cos only time will tell.

Creeping vines can restrain… but that’ll never do… dreams can help you fly… but please don’t misconstrue… a promise for the dream… illusion for the real. Go on … walk away, Renae... turn the dancing wheel.

And now she’s settled in (wheel dancin’ ghosts)… finally found a place on the wheel… made herself a deal (cowboy boots and petticoats)… to stop conjuring ghosts. They can criticize… but she wasn't listening anyway ('round the spectral post)… and everything’s ok… for a petticoat dancer on the wheel of time.

Creeping vines can restrain… but that’ll never do… dreams can help you fly … but please don’t misconstrue… a promise for the dream… illusion for the real.

Go on … walk away, Renae.

Sending out a supersonic kiss in joy and strife... and facing down the squall I sing the faster speed of life.
