I had a wish to sing along with Greg, so he offered me a piece of his Cherry Pie to sing along with... I added a few other bits here and there as well. Thanks Greg!!! This was a fun one for me... added some piano and a teeny bit of percussion....
Nothing beats when the MN songwriters convene. Greg and Colin sure brought some awesome sound to this song at the coffee table to improve the version that I recorded myself earlier this month. It's what I call a TOTAL MAKEOVER.
Thanks guys…
This one is still a bit rough, but I wanted to share and see if anyone has an interest in adding some guitars, bass, other vocal parts for fun. I left the chords in the lyrics below, in case you wanted to collaborate. I hope you enjoy it…
This one is dedicated to my dear friend John. Thanks for changing my life for the better....
Also a big thanks to our own Greg Connor who helped me get the chords for my own uke accompaniment, and who kindly played the beautiful guitars…

How was Reg to know she was a plant....
Sexy Suzie
Its told sexy Suzie knows the story way to well
She looks you in the eye and your under that spell
The mystery of the meeting disappears from your mind
How could such a beauty ever be unkind…
I wrote this song after planting and fertalizing a crop of sudan grass just to have the sun shine down with no relief on it for 100 days and no rain. We, Texas Water, were heading home one night AFTER A GIG at Gringo's in Grapevine when the…
I’m going down
To the ground
Half a step
Then look around
I make an unsettling sound
Devil in the details
Music is the thing
The flatted fifth
Makes a diabolic ring
I'm sick of those wise guys that lead us ....
Wise Guys
I tell you I want something I need it right now
Something to take me whey up above the clouds
I want to get high I want to learn how to fly
So I can get away from all these wise guys…

and on this fateful day i'll be
forced apart away from you
my destination i can't see
and i don't know where…
Part 1 of a travelling trilogy. Played on electric guitar in Dropped D Tuning. On the Wetband site here at Alonetone I overdubbed some slide guitar and bass: https://alonetone.com/wetband/playlists/traveling-trilogy/traveling-on-by-woody-b…
Trying out a new strat: not letting myself work on details on the computer until the skeleton of the song is complete. Result is a lot of variety in songwriting, but a bit rougher arrangement/mix.
