Thickened from my original concept of banjo and voices only. I may still like that version more, but the big shanty choir I perform with wanted to do it and I needed to arrange it with parts for banjo AND accordion (!!!) plus a whistle. No bass in the group, but as a former bass player I couldn…read more

I like popcorn
Pour it in the skillet
Turn up the burner
The heat will split it
Shake the popcorn
Building up the pressure

DIGGIN’ A HOLE by Jeff Prince

Diggin’ a hole is a natural thing to do.
Out in Odessa digging for Texas crude.
Or up in the Klondike searching for buckets of

be diggin’ a hole.

Diggin’ a hole. Diggin’ a hole
No good reason I know I’m just…read more
