I like the way the tinkly sound creates a sense of lightheartedness to a message that could be gloomy. It seems to convey an attitude of happiness overcoming adversity. Sounds good!

IRON I've got iron for my anemia A bucket trip to Tanzenia I've got a picture of a lion with a bone A transfusion in Monrovia Red blood cells in Angolia And I wonder if I'm going to make it home Take a week off from my medicine Doctor…

Just thinking about Happiness. Thinking about how she said she was leaving because she wanted to be happy. HAPPY Key - C walking down... Happy is the anvil as the hammer strikes the blade A fleeting spark that fades as the memory is made…

I KEEP MY RADIO ON I keep my radio on From sunset to dawn Keeps the spooks at bay Scares them all away I keep my radio on I guess some folks got no problems Some folks got no regrets Don’t know how they do it I’m not there yet…

“You commented on my song I KEEP MY RADIO ON. You also added, “I once had someone call me selling a security system. I told them “I don’t need it.” They will only come in here once.” Did you write that song?*” ............ 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.

There is nothing like the presence of a horse. The quiet understanding. The gentle strength. Woodlake, California...1961. I had a horse. She was my friend. There were times in my teens when Babe was the only being that did not judge me…

Jon Hogan said - You are a master of your art. It's the auditory equivalent of a bracing Charley Russel, or a fine Rembrandt, or a poem by Keats or a short story by Hemingway; like these, you have become a master of your art.

Jon Hogan said - We were speachless after it was over, up to about the count of ten. We were staring at each other, such a mix of feelings.... then we both laughed out loud to keep from crying. Mindblowing is all I can really think to say, simply mindblowing.

HAPPY Everybody asks me why I'm so happy They will get the message when they see your face... (C) 2011 Royal T Music Buddy Holly's music has been very central to my life. Sometimes I try to write a Buddy Holly song.
