Hard-rocking, guitar-driven blues-influenced music.
Note June 2024: All of the songs with a RED guitar picture tag to the left were recorded LIVE over backing tracks created with an Nux Loop Core and an Ammoon Pock-Rock. Glarry GTL semi-hollow tele copy guitar used. Mini digital voice recorder with Shure and Fender mikes captured it all live.
All the songs with yellow guitar picture tag are the previously recorded blues style songs.
These are some songs I started writing and recorded in late 2005, early 2006. I recorded them at home in my loft using cassette machines and a couple of microphones. Pretty barebones stuff. I keep writing and adding new songs as I get the motivation. Life provides lots of that. Check out the videos that I just added, all performed with Crazy Mixed Up World. (see Crazy Mixed up World at reverbnation.com). Songs sound best with headphones.
Story behind the song
Punch line from an old joke.
Lyrics
SISTERS IN THE DARK (DP)
(Written by David R. Pankoski ? May 2006)
My daddy told me son, I aint telling you no lies.
What Im gonna tell you, Shouldnt be any surprise.
But if that woman of yours, Just aint making you feel right
Dont go looking for another, Cause theyre all sisters in the night.
My daddy told me son, Please listen to what I say.
The advice Im gonna give you, Gonna save you some day.
But if that woman of yours, Just aint lightin off your spark.
Dont go looking for another, Cause theyre all sisters in the dark.
When I was a young man, I was never satisfied.
I was always gone by morning, Didnt care how they cried.
I always thought that one woman, Would never do.
But take my advice young man, And dont do as I do.
My daddy told me son, Please listen to what I say.
The advice Im gonna give you, Gonna save you some day.
But if that woman of yours, Just aint lightin off your spark.
Dont go looking for another, Cause theyre all sisters in the dark.
Oh many years have passed, Since my daddy spoke those words to me.
It took me my whole life. And now I finally see.
Just aint no good sense, Spreading yourself around.
Oh yeah I?m telling you, Theyre all the same upside down.
My daddy told me son, I aint telling you no lies.
What Im gonna tell you, Shouldnt be any surprise.
But if that woman of yours, Just aint doing you right.
Dont go looking for another, Cause theyre all sisters of the night.
My daddy told me son, Please listen to what I say.
The advice Im gonna give you, Gonna save you some day.
But if that woman of yours, Just aint lightin off your spark.
Dont go looking for another, Cause theyre all sisters in the dark.
