There was this biker bar called The 2500 Club. Just west of Sylvania on Belknap. On a sign outside it says, "The best little biker bar in Texas." Guthrie and Rick and I played there long enough to get to feeling pretty much like family.

It's…
I kneel down on a calloused knee
Hold my children close to me
And I pray The Rich Man's Prayer
It's not one that Jesus spoke
That one turned into a joke
So I pray The Rich Man's Prayer
Not the prayer that Jesus said
Not, "This day our daily bread."
No, no, I pray The Rich Man's Prayer
God only answers The Rich Man's Prayer
I kneel down on a calloused knee
Hold my children close to me
And I pray The Rich Man's Prayer

As I wrote the verses, Lisa would guide me by saying, "No, that one is another song, a song about the depletion of the hickory forest." Like that. When we finished the 4th verse Lisa declared it done and we danced around and hugged each other...but later, I said, "Nothing has happened. We have just set the scene. So I wrote the next verse...and we danced and hugged each other again. On the last verse I was stumped for a meaningful rhyme with "trucks" and she came up with "deluxe." Then I said, "We really need a refrain/chorus. The next morning Lisa sang me three notes. Said that was the chorus. Instead of humming or "oooing" the notes I did the "aaaooo" and we knew that was right, so, we danced again and hugged each other. (Maybe not.)
Well, I was up on the ladder cleaning the leaves out of the gutters and this song came to me. What could I do? I climbed down and wrote this song.

have a soft spot in my heart for lesbian biker chicks James (which does me no good). Great song!
Awesome!!!!
Nice grabbing intro. James, this is a brilliant track. Love the lyrics, melody and tempo. Recipe for perfection.
Cool song, almost have a Neil Young voice going on there.
Cool tune.
Nicely done mate sounds like a very cool bar.
First Class James.
Wow - Killer vocal melody and awesome harmonies. I frickin' love it!
Wonderful, honest vocal. I always admire your lyrics anyway, but this is emotionally painful too. So, beautiful!
Masterful writing and playing and I can hear the emotion.
Nice one mate.
Thanks James. What a beautiful song--We're going to learn it if only for our own edification!. Best, Robert and Sarah Aberg
Ha ha, it's like hearing it for the first time each different track, except that now I can sing along. This is a lovely version.
Funny, sounds just like you! Lovely track1
