Songwriter specializing in modern rock, country, easy listening and pop music.
I'm a songwriter with a wide variety of influences. I am currently seeking a publisher for one or more of my songs. Though I focus on commercially viable Country/Rock and Adult Contemporary, my wide range of infuences ensures that on any given CD of my work, there's something for all tastes in music.

Lyrics
“Deader Than This” Capers Simmons CHORUS You don’t get no deader than this You only got one shot, don’t miss Ice the flow, rock the boat and then roll it in play Put your life on the dice and then blow it away While you’re waiting on your sunny day It’s ignorant bliss, ‘cause you don’t get deader than this VERSE I Gather round, little children, hear this story of mine About a girl I knew well back in once upon a time She had the darkest black hair and brightest blue eyes And a secret—no one knew it but the Lord and the night She kept it closer to her chest than a lovers breast And it ate her up inside ‘til there was nothing left To this day no knows what drove that girl to her death But I know ~ CHORUS ~ VERSE II Listen, little children, and you shall hear About a boy I knew from school back in my earliest years We would run ‘round on the playground but as time ticked down He start running, started gunning with the thugs in our town He wanted bad to be tough, but it was tough to be bad And he ended up giving up all that he had To this day nobody knows who popped that cap in his head But I know ~ CHORUS (2x)~
