I’ve posted this absolute classic Shel Silverstein
song before, as sung by Bobby Bare.
Bobby’s version is the standard, as well as anyone
could ever cover it.
Kris Kristofferson on the other hand is certainly
no slouch himself, a legend with little peer.
It’s always nice to hear alternative versions, if done
well, with sincerity.
Like this one…

From the 1986 Martin/Chase/Short flick, Three Amigos.
At least once a year I have to post this, it’s that good.
I’m not crazy about the whole movie, it is uneven and
really corny/lame in spots but in others quite funny.
This is a classic scene, a really good bit of character
acting by both principals, Alfonso Arau and Tony Plana
as El Guapo and Jefe.
Some superb lines here…

A great set by Jeff Caldwell.
His low level snark, high intellect, and self
deprecation work quite well for him.
Jeff’s a funny guy…

The New Duncan Imperials with a mirthful romp
through the trailer park.
And what other kind of romp would it be?
Hold My beer…

A great scene from the 2002 flick Men in Black II.
There are many great lines in this movie, more
than a few in this slice alone.
Some really interesting moments in this one…
