Being the songwriter with German amateur folk band "Pickin' Berries" I use this as an outlet for demo recordings, unused songs and not-so-trad ideas.

Lyrics
A Joyful Roving Life I’ve seen strange people in bars,but the one met last night at Jack’s Was the strangest by far with his wooden leg and his patch-eyed cat He said “Sit down and have drink with me” Well, I’ve heard funny things and stories far from that But he was making me think when I listened to the words he said “Sonny, we could make a deal” Take this map and take this book and the cat to read them both She’ll tell you people’s secret names, she knows the places and the dates Treat her gentle, treat her kind And you’ll have a joyful roving life Just give me your coat and one of your heavy leather boots Before you go on your exciting trip down that winding road Sonny, don’t you hesitate Take this map and take this book and the cat to read them both She’ll tell you people’s secret names, she knows the places and the dates Treat her gentle, treat her kind And you’ll have a joyful roving life Well, I’m allergic to cats and you don’t look like a happy man So I#ll walk on two legs from this conversation’s end I left the bar with a heavy head
