Hi all you cool cats out there! Thanks for visiting my site. See my cool pics at the bottom of this page. Click "go to the MUSIC PAGE" just above my song list to check out all of my tunes, the lyric, chart positions and the new pictures that complement my songs. These recordings are rough copyright versions; Although I did show a CD with 9 of these songs to POWERSOURCE MAGAZINE's publishing department while in Nashville TN who accepted 4 of these tunes to pitch; also one was accepted by Destiny Row a Nashville record company mentioned below. Being a keyboardist/songwriter/lyricist I write, play and record my own original music including Rock, Country Crossover, blends of Easy Listening/R&B/Pop: also instrumentals with Rock, Classical, Jazz, and Country highlights. These recordings were written and recorded from 95' to 99' in my small home studio. The tracks are clear, well mixed, vocals are up front, tunes have drive, lyric are very "hookish" and catchy, and the songs have a BEAT that'll get your toes tappin'. I sing on these songs, but do not consider myself a vocalist. I have friends and connections in Nashville TN. CEO Ronnie Cantrell & Jane his A&R mngr loved my song; I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU STILL LOVE ME and let me hang with them at DESTINY ROW RECORDS in 2006 on MUSIC ROW Nashville TN, just a few blocks from Studio B, where Elvis recorded. Ron was thinking about placing that tune on ROW's newest artist Kelsey's next CD...but eventually passed. My intentions are to write and record current style hookish commercial songs that will cross over genres. I am looking for co-writers and am available for studio work, I catch on quickly, and would like to train-work as an engineer in a studio. When you listen to 3 DAYS LATE, please read along with the lyric page ....it's a duet, and I sing both parts... you may not get the message unless you do. It was mentioned by a friend of mine- a Nashville writer's night promotor- that my writing in 3 DAYS LATE is "really close" to what they're putting out in the Nashville music scene. You can view the lyric for any song, along with the chart positions by clicking on FULL next to each song. Rock On! You can read my true short stories, poems, and more cool lyric embellished with pictures.

Lyrics
Gone Are Those Days © Cal 2004 Gone are those days When we drove to the ocean Priceless scenes Painted pictures in my mind When dad packed the car With old fishin’ poles and inner tubes so flat Mom suggested We stop at Miller’s station get some air They still follow me around Those times so innocent Why did we grow up Why is life so tough Those days still follow me Follow me around Gone are those days When we drove out to the country Finding rhymes Posted phrases on the way Oh how we laughed Reading funny catchy slogans put on signs By some author We came to know and love as Burma Shave They still follow me around Those days so innocent Why did we grow up Why is life so tough Those days still follow me Follow me around Those days Those days still follow me around Those days Those days still follow me around Gone are those nights When we went to the drive in Movie screens Reaching high into the sky Dad packed the old Ford wagon With sleeping bags and pillows folding chairs We’d be tested Would we fall asleep and miss the second show They still follow me around Those days so innocent When did we grow up Why is life so rough Those days still follow me They follow me around Those days still follow me around
