Nice. Kind of folk/country with an old world sound. Do more :-]

Sitting on a bar stool thinking about Jane I wonder if she still remembers my name It’s been a long time as you might guess Last time I saw her it was quite a mess She called me names and made it clear She blew me a kiss in the rear view…

Total instant fav!! How do you keep it up? Another masterpiece. Some of my favorite lyrics ever. This is a good dance song too! A real toe tapper.

So, bright and clear...and, here in Cowtown, chilly. Good hearing your voice again.

What a delightful and peaceful song! I can picture you enjoying a quiet morning there in your pretty spot. And love the hint of the whistle at the end! Or was that a real bird?

Blue ribbon.......I love how you created this song from the warble bird whistle 💙. It truly does sound like the birds singing out loud. You have a true gift of story telling with your lyrics and music. This song truly is a day brightener.

The songwiting is typically excellent and your production chops are better with every release. Great job!
