Dear Sun Spots: When I was a child many years ago, you could buy Websters tomato juice and Red Mill peanut butter. Do either of these still exist?
Also, until the past five to 10 years one could buy old fashioned loaf, a sliced meat similar to bologna. I have not been able to locate any. Does any company still make it? – T. MacD., Eustis.

Their Web site indicated they carried a deli old fashioned loaf and perhaps it is the one you are referring to. Also, regarding Red Mill peanut butter, Sun Spots believes you may be referring to Bob’s Red Mill products. You can reach them at Bob’s Red Mill Natural Foods, 5209 SE International Way, Milwaukee, OR 97222, business hours 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. Monday-Friday, (800) 349-2173.
Dear Sun Spots: I was wondering if you would know the words to “I Wanna Do It All,” sung by Terri Clark, and Jeannie Seely’s “I Think I’ll Go Somewhere and Cry Myself to Sleep”? Thanks a lot. – A Sun Spots regular steady fan.
Answer: The following are the words to Clark’s song:
I’m sitting in traffic
For the 5th year in a row
Wasting my time
Just to get
Where I do even wanna go
I started jotting things down
On a Krispy Kreme sack
Everything I’d do
If I could leave this place
And never look back
I wanna do it all
Visit Paris in the fall
Watch the Yankees play ball
I wanna take it all in
Catch a few beads
Down at Mardi Gras
Start a tradition
Lay down the law
I wanna do it all
I want to drink tequila
Down in Tijuana
Say why not
When somebody says
Hey do you wanna
I wanna get my heart broke
Once or twice
Settle down with the love of my life
Rock little babies to sleep at night
I wanna do it all
Visit Paris in the fall
Watch the Yankees play ball
I wanna take it all in
Catch a few beads
Down at Mardi Gras
Start a tradition
Lay down the law
I wanna do it all
I wanna stand today
Every now and then
Just doin’ what I want to do
When I wanna do it
Anytime I wanna do it
I wanna do it all
Visit Paris in the fall
Watch the Yankees play ball
I wanna take it all in
Catch a few beads
Down at Mardi Gras
Start a tradition
Lay down the law
I wanna do it all
See Niagara Falls
Fight city hall
Feel good in my skin
Beating the odds
With my back to the wall
Trying to rob Peter
Without paying Paul
I wanna do it all
I wanna do it all
I wanna do it all
“Think I’ll Go Somewhere and Cry Myself to Sleep,” Al Martino, written by country and western artist Bill Anderson. This song peaked at number 30 in 1966:
Think I’ll Go Somewhere and Cry Myself to Sleep
I just kissed the one I love for the last time
And never have her soft lips been so sweet
She’s gone away and won’t be back forever
Think I’ll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
I’ll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
Not because I’m sad – because I’m weak
I can’t stand the thought of life alone without her
Think I’ll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
Just before she said “goodbye” she called me “darling”
And slowly ran her fingers down my cheek
I thought I’d die when she said she still loved me
Think I’ll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
I’ll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
Not because I’m sad – because I’m weak
I can’t stand the thought of life alone without her
Think I’ll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
