Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Story behind the song
This started with an upbeat riff on harmonics and the words just came naturally from that e-mail: martin@stirrup.free-online.co.uk
Lyrics
From what I hear, what I’ve been told You get a little wiser as you grow old And though I’ve been bought and I’ve been sold You know it’s alright with me Funny how when I take a drink It messes around with the way I think But if I float or if I sink You know it’s alright with me Hey little sister, won’t you spend a little time with me Hey, since I kissed her You know there’s nowhere else I’d rather be You can swing to the left, or hang to the right Put up your guard if you get in a fight But it makes no difference in the middle of the night… You can save your money, save the trees Save yourself from insanity So why not just do all of these… Hey little sister, won’t you spend a little time with me Hey, since I kissed her You know there’s nowhere else I’d rather be Hey eh eh come and take a chance on me Hey eh eh you can get it you want it You won’t have to con it with me From what I hear, what I’ve been told You get a little wiser as you grow old And though I’ve been bought an I’ve been sold Funny how when I start to think It messes around with the way I drink You may think I’m the missing link….
