Home studio copyright version. Traditional Country sound with piano and strings. Song has dynamics with time signature changes and back beats. Clever,very unique heartfelt lyric; fresh approach to a Country song. May fit into a movie, or T.V. show

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.

Story behind the song
I am a northerner, but feel great compassion for both sides who suffered greatly, fighting for what they believed in.
Lyrics
THAT OLD HILLBILLY SONG © 2002 Cal I'll always remember the day you appeared Your voice from the hollow put me in tears Grampa's old banjo still strapped on your back Draggin' your musket behind you All torn and tattered walkin’ along Singin' that hillbilly song La-dee-dee for a girl named Susanna La-dee-dah for old Tucker Jimmee Crack Corn A hurray for the band who always marched on Singin' THAT OLD HILLBILLY SONG I'll never forget the day you left A patchwork of grey the brass on your chest Your trusty old saber swung on your side I prayed to the lord to guide you You marched into battle through cannonball fire Singin' that hillbilly song La-dee-dee for a girl nammed Susanna La-dee-dah for old Tucker Jimmee Crack Corn A hurray for the band who always marched on Singin' THAT OLD HILLBILLY SONG La-dee-dah for the girl round the mountain La-dee-dee for a brown jug the old folks at home A hurrah for the good boys who sit on God's throne They're still singin' they keep singin' They're still singin' THAT OLD HILLBILLY SONG They're still singin' THAT OLD HILLBILLY SONG Singin' THAT OLD HILLBILLY SONG
