Who you are, is who you are When no one's even there When no one's looking, who you are Is, your soul, by far People say, we're always alone But is that truly true When come direct from mothers womb To the place they'll call your tomb If truly alone in life, why spend so much time Seeking to get, away from it all Acquiring as much agreement with What you think of your wall Who you are, is who you are When no one's even there When no one's looking, who you are Is, your soul, by far What do you do, when you do What you do every day Do you face the ground and pray Or explain your ways in a fray Who you are, is who you are When no one's even there When no one's looking, who you are Is, your soul, by far [2x's]

D Tried to go home, where never been before So many times, many times prior C Can't remember, how many homes, G D Ever thought, ever known D All the people there, they'd just ignore I'd say hello, C They'd say hello G D But then they'd say, just go..., just go back I'd gone to Austria and Germany across Europe to Czech Down South along the App-a-lach, to fetch The West didn't know And the North; to cold; for me So I call home where I am, and stand as a man A man among men, I have nothing prov'n And some allow room, for me to be me Not just what the world tried to seed Tried to go home, where never been before So many times, many times prior Can't remember, how many homes, Ever thought, ever known I've tried to tell my story, and got some to worry No one understood, all the fuss and the fury So I keep my story, mostly to myself And let those who'd care, take that book off the shelf They'd say, just go, just go back Yes just go, just go back Get back to where, you once belonged But don't think it's here, so have no stair, (don’t think it’s there)

The day I was born, I remember, I knew Boy..., man, you're just screwed I knew I didn't, ask to be here And don't know what I did, to earn that tare I always new, God was watching No preacher man needed, for that washing At the age of eight, I told them all You'll never see, heaven's gate fall People watched, people stared People told mom, that boy, we scared We don't understand, he has no fear He say's come at me, if you dare Mom never worried, she somehow knew Said to me near death, you're one of few Read to me and pray, from that book I'm going soon, stay and work His hook One day Angels came, I wrote that song Said she knew to much, and can't stay long I bought a guitar on the way there Sang her some songs in that hospital bare So here we are now, all day's just few I know He's coming, He'll get His due The valleys of the dead, will feed many As others dance, among all their plenty The day I was born, I remember, I knew Boy..., man, you're just screwed (you're just screwed) I knew I didn't, ask to be here And don't know what I did, to earn that tare I always new, God was watching No preacher man needed, for that washing

Lyrics: You wrecked me baby You wrecked me lately Your sweets on my teeth Knock me off my feet But, it gets me, off, the street You wrecked me baby Every woman that takes my love Leaves a burn hole Where my heart used to be You wrecked me baby, you wrecked me lately A steaming mess when they then flee A steaming mess when they then flee Leave me free Leaves my need So, then God, opens, the heavens Out falls some angle to calm me Fan my flames, with big ole angle wings Says, it don't matter, She knew she, Was not.., wor-thy... You wrecked me, baby, Your sweets on my teeth Knock me, off, my, feet But it gets me, off, the street

Lyrics: Good corn liquor, made me, to old to die young So I figure, wake me when not to bold to meet with Him, in the next life [Chorus] With Him I will meet With Him we all do Choose toothless, or just, plain psyothern hyouth With Him I will meet With Him, we all do (we all do) Never had luck, with all good women But plenty have stuck with, all wooden whores So I figure, stay home now, on, Friday nights to keep my teeth within, and no splinters Chorus Strangers hung me once said, they’d send me to Him now So I figured, Good Lord, here I come I’ll meet you now with my teeth in Chorus

Am What do you do when everything you do F All you do is wrong Am All people everywhere all that they say G Is all that you do is wrong Am So you look hard at these things F You look hard at these being's Am You consider well the bell that they ring G Then what do you do, when everything you do, all that you do is wrong Am You've no where to go, here is ev'a wear [sic] F Over there is the same as here Am There's a point in time, when being so kind G Is the wrong, thing, to do Am So then what don't you do when everything you do F All that you do is wrong Am You don't explain more, what's coming next G You just need to do, what you do Am So..., you do your best and with your fests [sic] F To make you're position understood Am And don't let up except to rest G Or you hear something like, you're the best Am When history's reviewed, you see nothing new F From Qin Shi Huang to Genghis Khan [ching shure hwang][gengis conn] Am To present day men of the all great conn's G Do what they do, in everything they do Am So..., to know your future, to know your present F You must understand all's past Am You won't live long enough to get a pass G You need to do what you do, and avoid that, killing rash

Lyrics: No bad blood, where there's only, mad blood No sad, blood, where there's no, bad blood So, say boy, are..., you blood..., or are you, just sad... I walked up to a man, wasn't a man... at all... Made of straw, scare, crow, can fly away, on no blood I'll call... So say, boy, are you blood, or weep on grade lead, stone, wood... The day I was born, it was raining hail balls... They took a hammer and nail, in pailed my crimes, Not a day old yet, convicted before, I had a sip for sail... But hey, that's okay I say No bad blood where there's mad blood... No sad blood, where there's no, bad blood, splashed from wood Huhh... and that there blood... It ain't coming from me... So, just how bad could it be... So, be the jack to her chill, no need to kill A good time sad..., don't look so pale No blood..., be the Will…, with, every, mist ache Be they Will, Be their Will, Be the Will… Repeat Verse 01

Lyrics: Where is my wand’ring soul tonight, My soul of tend’rest care, The soul that was once, in joy and light, Like a child of love and prayer? Refrain: Where's my soul tonight? (1) [my wondering soul tonight (2,3)] Where's my soul? // My heart overflows, for I love God so. Once it was pure, as morning dew, As it fell from mother’s knees; No face was as bright, no heart more true, And none was so sweet to please. [Refrain] Go find my wand’ring soul tonight; Bring it back to me and fill; Bring it back to me this night, oh God He knows I love Him still. [Refrain] Where's my wand'ring soul tonight? Where's my soul, in this fight? My heart overflows, for I love God so.

about

I consider having a theme for these projects, at least initially since then assists with focus, and ideas. So, this project, it's acoustic blues and cowboy trail songs (some, ala public domain, as well using the Lomax book for inspiration).

released December 12, 2022

It's usually just me for all, - instruments, vocals, recording, engineering, - all. However, check the specific tracks!

And, why $1000? Well, in today's world, it helps in the control of "Trolls", as has happened with a late night comedian that downloaded a rough demo and then trashed it on global TV (and was from "here" and our little group). The CR is in place and it'll cost you $1K for non-public private listening, if not more, - "if" :)
