I'm a guitarist, singer, and songwriter from central Kentucky. My music is a mix of many different influences; from the country and western I heard as a child to some stuff I heard yesterday. I was a full time, working musician for over twenty years; doing clubs and concerts all over the eastern U.S., but mainly in Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana, Ohio, and Florida. I have played every kind of venue; from the smallest, seediest club to 10,000 seat concert halls. Loved every minute of it. I also spent many hours in various studios as both musician and producer on a variety of projects. I am now a part time musician; I divide my musical time between writing and recording my own songs and playing with a great bunch of musicians in a band called "The Grandees". I write songs primarily to make you shake your money maker. I'm not deep, and I'm certainly no virtuoso. I just want you to have a good time. The songs I have here are from my second solo CD, titled "The Twisted Tale Of The Honky Tonk Monkey", which is available at CDBaby.com and my upcoming CD "Bad Choices Make Good Stories". My first CD, "All Night Radio", is available at CD Baby and fine CD discount bins everywhere. Thank you for visiting, and... TURN IT UP!!!!!

Lyrics

Lila got distracted on the blow off
A cardinal rule of being on the run
Never get your honey
Where you get your money
Never mix romance and a gun

Jimmy was a roper on the west side
Blackie had a handle on the crew
Tossing Broads and Crazy Larry
Swinging Priests and Pregnant Mary
The only life these bunnies ever knew

Chorus:
For a little flash
We can score big cash
Just light the flame
On the Badger Game
If you never risk it
Life's a trip for biscuits
You'll never get rich
On the Jamaican Switch

Our girl Lila was a looker
Just not the brightest in the hall
But her hustler's education
Explained the situation
And Lila won't stand behind the eight ball

Bridge:
The Hook was a line from a Penny and Dime
And some Babe Gam
The Flash was a little cash
From the Butter And Egg Man
The Shade was a Classic Fade
With a perfect Angle
Then they heard the Chicago Lightning
And they had to dangle

On the coast of Argentina
In the town of San Major
There's a statue of a lady
Who could be somewhat shady
And no one knows what the hell it's for
