Today we put the couch out by the road

Capo 2 in C
This is a true story. Cody even permitted me to use his name.
Cody is a cowboy, a horseman, that’s for sure
Traded in his guitar for long John underwear
Every day he pulls his boots almost to his knees
Oh, Cody is a cowboy…
I read a book a long long time ago
Why it frightened me, I didn’t know
But there it was. There I was
How did I know?
A simple story. A man and his lover.
Made me quiver. Run for cover.
Beautiful lady in my future…Woooo
I read a book…

I like it James Michael Taylor! Under which conditions do you record. Do you have an chorus?
Great Californian Legend and my friend Cody is leading actor :-)
This is all me...

Her real name isn't Luanne and she was so drunk when this all happened (tho she has a cd with this song on it) she has no idea it's about her.
Singing this song always makes me cry...

LOSER
Did you ever lose your britches
Did you ever lose a shoe
Did you ever lose that sweater
Your best friend gave to you
Did you ever lose that girl you held so tenderly
Well, let me tell you buddy. You're a lot like me
Did you ever…
THERE, I SAID IT
The more you got, the more you got to lose
From the top of your head down to the bottom of your shoes
The things you love. The things you abuse
It's enough to give a white boy the blues
I said it. There, I said it
It might…

Wow. The music and lyrics, both heart-breaking-ly sad but so real and true. Good poetry and appropriate music. There's pain there, but it's a beautiful composition nonetheless, and the voice is seriously real. Great job!
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…
Dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, human beings...it's all the same.
THE POUND
Thank you for coming to the pound
Take your time. Look around.
We’ve got something for everyone,
Someone for everyone.
Thank you for coming to the pound…
Well, this one speaks for itself if you listen carefully. You know who!
A somewhat jazzy song....
I played the keys, bass, guitars and did the vocals & mix
drums done in Addicted drums
I'm the king of the world
And all I do is tweet…
A band version of this song
KC - guitar, vocals & mix
Bingsolex - lead guitar
Erwin B - bass, recording
Hans Nooitgedagt Jr - drums
They say that you are evil
They say that you are bad
They say you got me hooked
They say you drive…
I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…
I love the chord move you do at the end of line three in the verse. The lyric grabs me from, That she hopes will be the very one
That you decide to wear." Because of you voice you use and the sounds it says the object of their desire/affections is David Bowie.My favorite line, among many is, And Blazey’s left her homework on the train." And, It’s never crossed their minds that you might fail."
This song is the result of exchanging "One Line Zingers" with my friend Tom last Saturday while playing a little music.
He challenged me to write a song about him and he would do the same at my expense.
The funiest song wins.

My friend, George Sluizer was making a film DARK BLOOD with River Phoenix and asked me to submit some music to possibly be used in the movie. He didn’t end up using this but he did use four other of my submissions.

WiW! I have had
it for many years but it never left my desk side. It's been the guitar I reach for when I am working at my bedroom/office computer. Never even thought about recording with it.
Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
Love it!
ASK CODY! It's what he told me. We report. You decide.
Nobody should die over that! Jim, you dirty dog.
Great music!

This reminds of several songs but, overall, is like nothing that I've heard. I like it.

Chloride and calcium!!! Words words... Ubiquitous.... I really loved this piece. It's brilliant!!!! Thank you!!!
lovely song very heartfelt,and classic JMT...

Great lyrics James. I couldn't agree more.
Rock and Roll James! I said it!
Perfect!
Jammin' tune.
You had me on the first line… excellent!
Your songs are just awesome! This one really rocks.
'50s Elvis or Carl Perkins would have this one. A pre-Beatles-style Rock tune, perfect for a sock hop at the soda shop. Cool job!
Wow. The music and lyrics, both heart-breaking-ly sad but so real and true. Good poetry and appropriate music. There's pain there, but it's a beautiful composition nonetheless, and the voice is seriously real. Great job!
How very beautiful, James.
I like the quirky twist you came up with for this song, Jim. It really makes a good point about being discarded.
Comments made by James Michael Taylor
This really creates a world of it's own...
I like how you fit your voice and sentiment into this barren acoustic landscape.
Love the tender lyric buried in the storm of sound.
It's like the instruments are playing footsie.
Iy's like a meditation...could loop indefinitely
...another sunny song. Great happy groove!
What a sunny song!
Love the rawness of the tracks and the mix. Just wish the vocal was out a bit more.
I love the chord move you do at the end of line three in the verse. The lyric grabs me from, That she hopes will be the very one That you decide to wear."

"I’m trying to put you behind me" Ha ha!
Great vocal.
Do we ever get past this?
Guitar sounds great!
Really gets the raw sadness. But by the time they tell you it's over it's most likely been over for some time...

Beautifully done.

So clean and clear. Love it.
Amazing tone. I'd love to hear this on True's system at TPBY Speakers.
Great groove. Perky & quirky.
