COLORS
Roses are red. Violets are blue
I could name a bunch of flowers and colors too
Roses are red. Tulips are too
But I could never name all the colors that look good on you

There was a time my world was black and white…

I HATE GOODBYES September 8, 2017 Capo 2 IN D
I go in the back door. Never in the front
All of that attention is the last thing that I want
You know what I’m talking ‘bout the kisses and the hugs
Climbing on the furniture, tripping…

THE RAMP
They’re taking down the ramp next door at Rita’s
I’m no fool. I know what's going on
Either she has died or she’s been taken to a home
where she will waste away
The boards are stacked up in the drive at Rita’s
I will help Al…

LANCASTER STREET - Em
James Michael Taylor
Midnight in COWTOWN. 90 degrees
Too hot for a blanket. Too hot for a sheet
The trash on the sidewalk is trying to sleep
Breathing the bus fumes on Lancaster Street...
Sunshine brings tacos…

I'm so tired I think I'll get in my car

Maybe Stefen will sing me a song...

Em capo @ 6
Maybe I could be a potter
Throwing all the words away
Maybe I could learn the language of the clay
Maybe I could be a potter
Sweep the words out of the way
Let my fingers find the music in the clay

A song for Barbara and Jeff...
When love is late it doesn’t matter
It will flow back thru the cracks
Be it truth or idle chatter
Love shines sunshine on the facts
How many chapters in the story
Or how much time it spends
Be it tragedy…

I QUIT
Nobody has to put up with this shit
You can make your stand and tell the world, "I quit."
You can do it with a gun. You can do it with a corvette
But nobody has to put up with this shit.

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

There are many suns
There are many moons
But there's only one you.
Moon light lights the path
The planets do the math
All that's left for me to do is you
I knew it from the moment that we met
You standing there. A scene I won't forget…

Get outta my way, I'm headin' on down this road
I'm on my way but I got no place to go
I've paid my dues. I just want my share
I've got the sun in my eyes
and the wind in my hair
But I got nobody
I've got no one to run to
No one to see…

NEW DAY Key Am
In the morning when she gets me up
Pours some wake up in my coffee cup
She opens the window, lets the new day in
She says, “Open your heart and embrace it.
Take that frown and erase it.
I whistle a happy song…”

Some folks got big ass

When I was in college my room mate told me a STORY about a traveler who arrived at the gates of a city in a strange land. Seeing a beggar at the gate he gave him a coin and asked him a question: "What kind of people will I find in your city…
