A prime representative of what a Main Street Blues is and should be about. Very powerful lyrics indeed. So moving, and the music penetrates the heart. Your vocals are so real -- one knows you mean what you're singing!
My dad, Danville Dan the Singing Hobo, use to say, "A hobo travels to work, a tramp travels but doesn't work, and a bum doesn't travel and doesn't work." Anyway, enjoyed the thought-provoking lyrics and melody. Keep on keeping on!
Like anyone who happens to look, I see the signs of a failing economy all over the Country. This song is a effort to encourage folks to struggle for a more open and equitable system for the financial benefit of all of us.
Hadn't listen to this song in awhile, and yep, I still love it. Your one of my favorite Political Folk songwriters ever. Thanks for telling it like it is. Rock on!

Broken Dreams(Lyrics)
We’ve all had dreams broken
we’ve all wanted the absurd
i dream of being loved again
to hold and not let go
i’ve been waiting for a long time
to try and…
Heres the second Collab i've done with the talented Billy Jack.........
HARD DRIVE HOME
the clouds form

the rain begins to falls
what was it

The End of Love (Lyrics)
She said she was a dreamer
So why did she lie
She told me she loved me
I had to ask her why
She couldn't look me
straight in…
Well the story continues...Munga is back and after his wife and Sweet Ronnie....they ran off to Jamaica and Munga is not a happy camper

There is not a trace of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the bags that hang beside
the beds of legless soldiers…

You gotta love a song that holds the phrase: *"I got over lovin you, come out of it alive"* I really enjoyed this one Terry!
Another one of my favorite Terry "The Bear" Brown tunes -- it's so very real. Brings a tear to my eye. Love ya, man!

Ha ha! Rock on! "That train ain't the only thing you're on" -- what a line!
Old country the way it's supposed to be sung and played! I dig the hook... "ain't the only train you're on."
