Another song created from watching too much TV....
Live in the living room or should i say Cellar.....

I didn't mean to turn it into a Ballad it just happened your honor
He Was The Gypsy King To Me
i sit alone thinking of my father in this empty room
and all that he’d done for me

I grew up in a 51 Chevy school bus, converted into a camper, with 7 other people, an ocelot, squirrel, and rabbit. My father traveled from state to state, show to show, entertaining strangers with his music while keeping the rest of us alive and together. To me, he was the king of the hobos. He's no longer with us, but your song brought him back to life for me, for a moment. Thank you. Stay groovy!

Got a lot of bad news this week and this came out.......

And said friend, only true friends understand
He said friend…

But how can you tire of beautiful chords

Where my love

Two young men upped and
