Lyrics:
Old Country Songs
Wooden Chair by the window
Gibson on my lap
And the time I spend strumming
Is never coming back
The sun is shining on me
Evening won’t be long
I’m living in the city
Singing…
This song is in response to the song writting challenge offered by Carl Unbehaun of Minnesota HomeBrew Radio / Thief River Falls, MN
"Write a song about a Crazy X Girlfriend"

Snow on the ground. Wind and temperatures below zero. It's time for another coffee table evening.
Recorded live around my coffee table with:
Mark Lofgren - Lead Guitar & Harmony
Colleen Dillon- Ukelele & Harmony
Greg Connor…
No, I never wrote the song, but always thought I would begin the song with the sound of my 12 guage shotgun as I open the action.
Gunshots and clapping are very hard to record. But there are plenty of places to go grab a sample.

mirror,
mirror
(Leo)
Oooh, oh, oh
(Leo)
They see one to the other
their backs face the mirror
their eyes face one another
(Isslene)
I dreamed you moved into me
we blended effortlessly,
now awake I plea a reunion
'cause…
There's not a drop of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the puddles of this war.
But the blood that's spilled's become a flood
of the hungry and the poor.
There is not a trace of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the bags that hang beside
the beds of legless soldiers…
I thought it would be fitting to post this today, on Memorial Day, as a tribute to my friend William Easley, as well as all who have fought and died in wars, American or otherwise.
Sometime back in the 60's William (Billy from here on) heard…
A little ditty about a company wanting to build a waste wood incinerator near me.

Cheers buddys - fight the good fight
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
For Someone extremely special.
And for those that it might help.
Thanks to Dave Purssord for Playing Lead for me.
Thanks to St Mary’s for allowing me to record this live in the Church.
And Thanks to all you all here.
Peace

A nice tribute to one of the best flat pickers I have ever heard. We're going to miss him.
Lyrics inspired by Albert Einstein? Lady . . . You got style!
Refreshing. I like the contrast between the playful sound of the music and the seriousness of the topic.
I noticed you updated this song! Very Pretty Terry!
This seems to float. Very enjoyable.
This is like a leaf floating away on a stream. A GREAT 4 minute ride!
Thought provoking. It gives me a sick feeling when I think about how we are all being manipulated.
A very thoughtful tribute, beautifully played.
Hey! Congratulations! I'll bet if feels good. Nice accomplishment.
Go get um! Keep the bastards in line. Good Lyrics!
Big difference Terry. Nice work!
What do you think of recording this with your new microphone? I bet you could make the girls swoon!
Hope you don't mind. I added this to my "Favorites / Other People" playlist. I enjoyed this Adrew!
Lots of attitude . . . I love it.
Interest lyrics and great texture in the music.
Great way to start the day!
This song is "Out Of This World". You really got my feet tapping.
I encourage you to take another try at writing lyrics for this. It's a great track!
I really like this!
Powerful playing to match the message. Well done Roger!
