Country music from the heart of a county boy.
Well folks, catch some new tracks featuring the vocal styling of Mr. Mike Perreria and Mr. David Bell. Yes, a few of these tracks are from the long lost County Line sessions!!! And yes, some of them still have my lack luster vocals on them, but I'm working to remedy that part. Note that almost all (except 1) of the tracks are new. Very soon I'll be unveiling my next "album." I'll put the tracks up with the scratch vocals, and will work at finding some suitable voices.

Lyrics
At 18 he hung it up Just married on his pick-up truck And rode away happily ever after He thought he found the one thing That could make him give him give up his dream Now he only rides in his mind Got married so young All the things that he could have done Never rode those bulls into December Now he works from 8 to 5 Since when does love take your pride Wakes up at night and doesn’t even know why 1st Chorus: Is it time to move on Was the choice that he made wrong This can’t be happily ever after All the things he thought he knew Now he don’t know what to do This can’t be happily ever after One day he read a note That his wife of seven years had wrote Said I’m sorry, but I just had to go She packed all her stuff and left So he pulled out that riggin he kept Cleaned his chaps and rossined that old rope 2nd Chorus: Now his love is gone On the hiway he rolls on He’s gonna live happily ever after He finally cracked out his own The rodeo is his true home He’s gonna live happily ever after Now every once in a while He looks back, and says with a smile We had some good times yes I know If I had it to do again This is how it would end He’s gonna live happily ever after
