Dad wanted me to write him some funeral music. This is it. He's still alive at 91 and sings this song to himself and tears come to his eyes. I have a video of Dad and me singing a duet of this song. EULOGY He grew up in Clinton, Oklahoma…

Sweet to hear your voice again, Jim. Love the song and particularly, your performance.

Great songwriting, as usual. The mix sounds a bit rough to me, but I love the arrangement.

Sounds like a song that could be part of a stage production. Believable and emotional delivery, very nice guitar in there. B

Of course, this is an old song. My mom would always say, "Jimmy, play The Wild Wood Flower, like Dick Melton used to."

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…
