Last of my recordings. Could me my retirement song :) Serious props to DuffMusiq. First time he's ever played country. Gotta tell ya, not bad for the kid's first effort. Seriously, he got a Nashville / Chet Atkins sound on this. Nice job Duff!

Story behind the song
Blatantly shameless country leaving work and love behind.
Lyrics
Time and weather, surely takes it toll After a while, this sh** just gets old, But out there somewhere, where the son meets the sea There's a golden sand dune, bed waiting for me After all of those years, they lie to your face Hand you a box and put a boy in your place It won't be the same, they say without a doubt But keep you eye on the door, as they're walking you out I'm a worry in mind, to my family and friends And those who stood by, through thick and the thin And can count on them all, if not on one hand That's why I've got to take this, on like a man There's a desert to cross and I'm getting nearer Leaving miles of regrets, in my rear view mirror I'll take the dust and the sun, if it takes me a year For a voice to whisper softly, you can sleep now my dear For painters and poets, there's one rule of thumb A true naked forked is only found in the slums And I can't believe what, I'm still dreaming of After feeling like a road kill, on the highway of love
