    As I was walkin' 'round Grosvenor Square
    Not a chill to the winter but a nip to the air,
    From the other direction, she was calling my eye,
    It could be an illusion, but I might as well try, might as well try.
    She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes.
    And I knew without askin' she was into the blues.
    She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls,
    I knew right away she was not like other girls, other girls.
    In the thick of the evening when the dealing got rough,
    She was too pat to open and too cool to bluff.
    As I picked up my matches and was closing the door,
    I had one of those flashes I'd been there before, been there before.
    Well, I ain't often right but I've never been wrong.
    Seldom turns out the way it does in a song.
    Once in a while you get shown the light
    In the strangest of places if you look at it right.
    Well there ain't nothing wrong with the way she moves,
    Scarlet begonias or a touch of the blues.
    And there's nothing wrong with the look that's in her eyes,
    I had to learn the hard way to let her pass by, let her pass by
    The wind in the willow's playin' "Tea for Two";
    The sky was yellow and the sun was blue,
    Strangers stoppin' strangers just to shake their hand,
    Everybody's playin' in the heart of gold band, heart of gold band.

      @@chuckrowland8362 Some explaining. I used to be a deadhead but I walked away from it all some thirty-some years ago because I was a little puss and I didn't want to get high anymore. I had always thought that my life had been so tragic. I don't even listen to the Grateful Dead hardly at all anymore so you wouldn't even know the artist let alone the song that I am thinking of so I won't even mention it. Not only that but it's all in a foreign language. So it was one day that I was watching the video for this song on you-tube. I thought it was a nice song blah, blah, blah. But then it suddenly occurred to me that the song was telling a story that was something that happened to me right about the time I quit the Grateful Dead. That was the point at which I got "one of those flashes." It brought me all the way back to that time that the song seemed to be talking about. And it just so happens that I was listening to Scarlet Begonias over and over at that particular time. But the foreign language song is a comedy rather than a tragedy so consequently I was compelled to rethink my own past. For although my life has been mediocre and average it has been by no means a tragedy if you can go by what the foreign language song is saying. Now this is not to suggest that the foreign language song is actually about me, because that would just be vanity. But it is close enough to what happened to cause me to know that "I'd been there before" so to speak.

My father got a piece of paper and drew me a portrait of my dog which captured her very essence. I still have that scrap of paper but even if it's destroyed it will never ever really be destroyed---nor the love which spawned it.

God works in the most odd ball ways. Never lose faith in love and even in the darkest times stay humble. You never know what the next man, woman, or child is going through. Be at peace and love one another. This world is wicked but even the smallest candle will banish darkness.

      I walked across the golden gate bridge leaving San fran Phycho. Unfortunately due to liberal policies. The Haight is filled with gang members controlling the flow of drugs, not the hippies. And on the Haight it is dirty, needles, poop everywhere, and don't even get me started on the tenderloin. Last time I went to SF, years ago. Since then it's probably only gotten worse.

      As much as the media, music or films from that era may have glorified those times, they were really hell in America, very turbulent. Particularly the 1960s, I guess the 70s were more chill but the Vietnam War didn't end until 1975. It was a generally terrible time to be a woman around then as well. My mother was born in 57' and was frequently harassed at every job and had several times where she was nearly raped and somehow managed to get away. Rose tinted spectacles be real.

    Ain't been nothin like 'em before or since. A pure joy for listening both lyrics and music. Loose we called it in the 60's. Kinda like it just naturally flowed out of 'em. Certainly not the best musicians or singers but still just magical if you were or are able to tap into it. Not everyone can you know (smile). I guess like many things it just ain't for everyone. But if you're one "you" know what I mean. The Grateful Dead. Just ain't nothin like 'em before or since (smile). Oh I know they still make appearances but sad to say Jerry's gone, Jerry's gone RIP. Yes, the peace that passeth all understanding. That home we're all or should I say most are seeking. So like Dr Laura says, now go out and do the right thing (smile). There are many paths, pray on it, talk to God and choose the right one for you. It's serious business folks so take it as such. You know what I mean. You know down deep in your knower what I mean (smile).

      If woodstock interests you, then you should look up rainbow gatherings and then go to one. :)

      "I wish I was alive for Woodstock"---Suspence Vlogs
      You're right where and when you need to be right now. Woodstock was an economic exploitation fuster-cluck and a pigsty. You are to make of what is around you an epic. Then once it's all over and done you'll have something worth watching.
      Don't you understand that we're right on the verge of cracking the code upon which reality is predicated? Nobody present at Woodstock had an inkling of the concept of "quantum vacuum".
      In the immortal words of Bue Cheer---hold on it's comin'. Or as Garcia might put it:
      Won't you try just a little bit harder
      Couldn't you try just a little bit more
      Won't you try just a little bit harder
      Couldn't you try just a little bit more
      ---and if you do I promise you will *not* be disappointed.

    This is the video that started my obsession with the Dead 5 years ago. The first time I listened it hadn't sounded quite what I assumed the band of the counterculture would, but it caught my interest. I moved from this to studio albums, then fast forward a year and I'm listening to live shows back-to-back and reading a book about their cultural and music impact.
    THanks for uploading this

    I find a deeper connection to this song and all of his songs. a number of years ago I found out Jerry was a cousin to me. Rest in peace Jerry make God smile as you only know how and maybe play him a the tune to make heaven feel at peace.
