James Michael Taylor's listening history
CRAZY
She said if I ever go crazy and leave her

And ghost crabs scatter in Sausalito
I'll wait on the shore across the bay…

EULOGY
He grew up in Clinton, Oklahoma
Red dirt back yard, Gramma's place
Honey suckle in a dust bowl
Life as hard as limestone lace…

YOUR VOICE
I hear your voice
I go get my ladder
Pull on my gloves
Climb up to the gutter
Where the leaves gather round
Talk about the weather
I hear your voice
I dig out our blankets
The 'lectric controller
Your grand mother's quilt…

This is my Katrina song.
THE NEW NEW ORLEANS WALTZ
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many a boy
And Lord knows I am one
Storms may come and storms may go
But the sun will always shine
