| A White Sport Coat and a pink
Carthusian

I
could remember songs on one
hearing. Before my long journey to high school and college away from family and friends
Marty Robbins broke into my life with a splash. He did it with his
great composition inspired by a high school prom. My
immediate interpretation was Carthusians and not carnations since I didn't
know what a carnation was and I did know what a Carthusian was.
Besides, my
mother was quick to criticize such irreligious behavior and this of
course gave me all the more incentive to sing about pink Carthusians.
I suppose it's possible
if they stay too long at the beech.
