= Verse

Give me rock and rool music till the end of time

if I need to sell my soul ill be the first in line

Favorite tune blasting from the radio

Cant you hear me knocking by the Rolling Stones

Dance with me baby

hold me real close

the one I choose

the one i love the most

= Chorus

Baby show em how its done

hold me little chosen one

baby show en how its done

= Verse

Woke up this morning feeling no pain

my baby’s love hits me like the pouring rain

Here comes the evening watch my baby sway

beauty flows like some fine champagne

Hang with me baby

walk real close

the one I choose

the one i love the most

= Chorus

Baby show em how its done

hold me little chosen one

baby show en how its done

= Verse

Say now little baby dont you board that jet

I aint half done with the whole of you yet

Full moon’s a GLOW   It’s gonna wax & wane

saxaphone playing by the subway train

My partner in crime

lets chase down so fun

hold you as tight as I can 

my little chosen one

= Chorus

Baby show em how its done

hold me little chosen one

baby show en how its done

Dancing Fingers (Key of C)

=Verses

Yeah babe I’m dancing, fingers ass & all
Here with my guitar, babe wont you come along?

=Chorus

Cause I love you, nobody close to or above you
yes I love you , yeah I love you

Yes Im dancing, with a group/bunch of my closest friends
Oh what an evening, I hope this night never ends

I want to say that i love you, from me and the boys onstage
we’ll carry on to better days, Yes we love you

Right here!  Right now!

=Verse

The devil come down to talk to me

He wanna whisper in my ear

Tell me how my life ought to be

Tell me what I wanna hear

He say Ya see that yonder woman

Ya know she’ll He say she keep me warm at night

When I know she nothing but trouble

kinda trouble make you loose your life

 

=Chorus

I said you take my soul, you’d better have more than a loaded gun

No peddle to the metal don’t mean nothing when the break man come

 

=Verse

He fed me a bottle of whiskey

My eyes turned bloodshot red

Coming on the scene like an RPG

Full boar to my death bed

I said the mercury began to rise

And the blood a real hot did run  

every single hair stood up on end

Rising up like a bastard son

 

=Chorus

I said you take my soul, you’d better have more than a loaded gun

No peddle to the metal don’t mean nothing when the break man come

 

=Verse

You see the whiskey and the devil

Are next to one and the same

You drink the sweet blood of the bottle

You’ll be screaming in the night his name

Some fight the devil with a cross on high

or the Buddha from the foreign land

I fight the devil with a little soul

and this here guitar in my hand

 

=Chorus

I said you take my soul, you’d better have more than a loaded gun

No peddle to the metal don’t mean nothing when the break man come

 

=Verse

did your mamma ever tell you son

when you were just a baby child

dont step in (to or side) a fenced in pen

with a rabid dog thats wild

have you a Smith & Wesson

or a shotgun tried and true

when the break man comes a looking for your hide 

theres nothing you can do

Space Cowboy

 

= Verse
Moon so bright, my eyes are weeping
electrified tide charged by brilliant light
Venturing out, through the pounding ocean
psilocybin speaks to my deepest mind
Lord my deepest mind…

= Chorus
the haters say my name
RIDE ON Space Cowboy
done smoked his mind to the southern wind

the stars all align
you know you are my hero
the milky way is a friend of mine
lord a friend of mind…

= Verse
Quiet my soul, and laser focus
Tame the wild seas for your son tonight
amphitheater formed by clouds above me
laugh out loud as I drop into the perfect ride
a perfect ride…

= Chorus
the haters say my name
RIDE ON Space Cowboy
done smoked his mind to the southern wind

the stars all align
you know you are my hero
the milky way is a friend of mine
lord a friend of mind…

= Verse
Waves so high, my body’s peaking
psilocybin ride through electric nights
I’ve made my peace, with the pounding ocean
the milky was says she’s a friend of mine.
lord a friend of mind…

= Chorus
the haters say my name
RIDE ON Space Cowboy
done smoked his mind to the southern wind

the stars all align
you know you are my hero
the milky way is a friend of mine
lord a friend of mind…

= Chorus
I stand with my old guitar
to you i’ll be faithful
just give me little action every now and then

I plucked upon these steel strings
it all comes to a stand still
my love song’s sung to the southern wind

= Verses
Well I’m a road running desert dog baby
Haven’t had water for days

The valley hears my motorcycle coming
Echoes through the tall palisades
Raw thunder cross the tall palisades 2X

Looking to find myself my own oasis
Riding all night and through the dawn

If I could only show you everything I’ve seen here
You’d feel at home in the place I’m coming from
The Place I’m coming from

= Chorus
The Place Where I’m a Coming From
The Place Where I’m a Coming From

= Verses
I travel light, Lord the guitar is my calling
a little Harmonica if you’d like some

Serenading my lovely baby from her window
Disappearing in the shadows till the dawn
Making love in the shadows through the dawn 2X

= Chorus
The Place Where I’m a Coming From
The Place Where I’m a Coming From

= Verses
My home is where I rest my head baby
It seems my days of moving will soon be done

You make it easy to stay here right beside you
finding comfort where on earth I swear there was none
Comfort baby where I swear was none 2X

= Chorus
The Place Where I’m a Coming From
The Place Where I’m a Coming From

Intro

Verse———

The moon came out

and the Milky Way disappeared

staring at my shadow

wondering how the hell I got here

 

could it be that this happenstance 

is what brought me to this place tonight

or am i just another fool

blinded by the moonlight

 

Chorus ———

maybe baby time will tell

maybe baby time will tell

my brother fare the well

maybe baby time will tell

 

Verse———

On the day that our father died 

the songbird she start to cry

the songbird could only cry

I lost my place in this here world

he was our symbol of the GOOD life

 

Let my tears be the seed that heals

the scars left on this here farm

it’s not that you done me wrong

it’s just we’ve all got broken hearts.

 

Chorus ———

maybe baby time will tell

maybe baby time will tell

my brother fare the well

maybe baby time will tell

 

Verse———

Thirteen years to the day

I can still feel you by my side

I can still see your smiling face       like yesterday

all I got to do is close my eyes.

 

At the first light to the new day

cold water wakes my warm face

I try to swim beyond the horizon line 

because I know you’ll be by my side

 

or

as I climb up through the rising tide

feels real good to have you by my side.

 

Chorus ———

maybe baby time will tell

maybe baby time will tell

my brother fare the well

maybe baby time will tell

1

=Verse

I gotta get back to California, 

Im in Nashville, Tennessee

Snows on the Ground due to Global Warming

& my baby’s waiting at home for me.

 

=Chorus

Let raise a glass to the beauty & the guitar

& the band behind her lord they sure can play

Giving wings to my yearning heart’s imagination

sing along with music, Just what I say!

Her words will never be left unspoken

Fill the air till we can’t hear no more

 

2

=Verse

The Blues got  a hand forged of raw pig iron

Lord a tongue made of red hot fire

Seems to reach out to the sun just to slow it down

Moan & Groan songs from forgotten times

 

=Chorus

Let’s raise a glass to the heart that’s been broken

shattered pieces on the honkey tonk floor

Words will never ever be left unspoken

Fill the air till we can’t hear no more

 

3

=Verse

Lord If I could grapple with the keeper of time

I’ve got a mind to beat that old boy down

Cause I never could stand to see my loved ones die

and be the one to put them in the ground

 

=Chorus

So let us raise the glass, a few more dead soldiers (to our ancestors above us)

that have passed on to the dust and clay

I love them more than I ever have

Swear to meet with them again some day     yeah -ee yeah

 

4

=Verse

You’re the same, you’re the same as the last time i saw you

& man its been 10 years gone

Got to rub my eyes just to recognize you

Bring back those sweet memories of home

 

=Chorus

Let’s raise a glass to the hearts that’s been broken

shattered pieces on the honkey tonk floor

No words between need ever be left unspoken

fill the air with song till we can’t hear no more

 

REPEAT VERSE 1

=Verse

I gotta get back to California, 

Im in Nashville, Tennessee

Snows on the Ground due to Global Warming

& my baby’s waiting at home for me.

 

=Chorus

Let raise a glass to the beauty & the guitar

& the band behind her lord they sure can play

Giving wings to my yearning heart’s imagination

sing along with music, Just what I say!

Her words will never be left unspoken
