Hi, welcome to the swamp chat brothers and sisters.
I'm your host Steve vest.
The story is What happened?
The night Ronnie almost got shot
Killed on the west side of Jacksonville.
It was in a tavern called the West
Tavern year was
1967 I'd gotten a call from Gary Washington
That afternoon to meet them at the West Tavern.
He gave me the directions when I got to the West Tavern
Ronnie and I went inside
At the same time.
I remember that and when I got inside
I was told that if I didn't get any alcoholic
Beverage that if I got a coca-cola that I could say so that's how I did it
Ronnie had another story where he used to fake ID and got himself a Jack Daniel and that's that's the truth there
He began to dance with this woman that she
she had blonde hair and
she had a
What was known as a QT sun tan
from quick tanning QT
Sun tan lotion
Guarantees you a tan in just a matter of minutes.
Her skin was actually orange
she had and
unnoticed of it was white around
the wedding ring finger
He came up to her and he actually said what's your name little girl?
And this is before the that song was ever written.
I thought that was that was really strange
But Ronnie began to kind of dance with her and and all and I
noticed a man came in and
he was wearing a
Royal blue bandana
he had on a
white t-shirt and he had on a
Black leather vest and he had jeans on and black hip boots.
He came up to the knees
and
As it when he came in he started talking to a man
who looked like a your average
older of vet today an older man probably in his 50s, maybe
60s with a full full beard
Who had glasses had gray hair almost down to [B] the shoulders part of the middle.
Now, this was
[C] 1967 [F#] and he noticed
That
This man was telling the biker
Where the man was and [G] where Linda was
Her [B] name was not Linda Lou Linda.
Lou [Em] was Alan Collins grandmother's [G#] name.
So that was added for the song
Just as it [N] actually took place at the West Tavern on
Lennox not the little brown jug the West Tavern later became the pastime bar
[F#m] So
He got his information right as he came into the [F] door now
Gary has said
[E] One testimony that [F] he and Alan stayed outside
[Em] In another testimony, he [G#] said that they were [N] they were inside the bar both is true
Ronnie was a smoker at the time
All right
There's a [B] lot of information on this story
I'm gonna have to wrap this one up and I've got more information on the next show and I'll see you at the next show
on part two of what happened to
I'm your host Steve vest.
