Alternative country contemporary christian pop/rock
When I was 22 a young lawyer took one of my songs and put it on the ‘B' side of his recording of Ave Maria. He invited me to watch the recording session at Criteria in Miami, Florida. Since that moment all I have ever wanted was to have my music recorded by professional musicians and sung by established artists. This truly is a monumental task as I do not perform live so I have recorded my own material as a means to get exposure and as a way for artists to be able to judge the “cover” worth of my songs. I am looking for a publishing deal. Contact Info: Jim Blachura C/O Stablesongs Phone: 336 995 0813 E Mail: saintlymanmusic@yahoo.com Saintly Man Music /ASCAP

Story behind the song
sometimes I do feel like a motherless child...a perfect cover for "Acoustic"
Lyrics
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Den I get down on my knees and pray I get down on my knees and pray Sometimes I feel like I'm a long ways from home Sometimes I feel like I'm a long ways from home Sometimes I feel like I'm a long ways from home Den I get down on my knees and pray I get down on my knees and pray Sometimes I feel like I’m almos’ gone Sometimes I feel like I’m almos’ gone Sometimes I feel like I’m almos’ gone Den I get down on my knees and pray I get down on my knees and pray Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Den I get down on my knees and pray I get down on my knees and pray
