Lake Fork Verne and his banjo. Original country and Americana songs. Songs of yesteryear, growing up during the great depression 1930's and the way things are
Just me and my banjo...writing and singing about how things used to be long ago in the 30;s and 40's and how those experiences affect today. I started out wanting to get on record these stories and songs for my grandchildren; but after doing it for a while, others have expresses interest so we are recording and putting them out there.

Lyrics
Coal-Oil Light(Before electricity on the farm) Copyright by: Verne Garrison June 19, 2010 Valley Park, Mo Banjo tuned E, Capo 3, Key of E E A The old coal- oil light E Tip the glass chimney, match to the wick B7 Turn the knob to adjust the height E That old coal oil light Chorus: E A Watch the shadows on the wall E The quiet times at night-fall B7 Were the best times of all E Watching those shadows on the wall Clear coal oil, feeding the wick Men in the mines provide the fuel So people like me can have light, Seems so cruel Blow across the glass chimney top Snuffs the burning wick to a stop Shadows fade into the night Thanks to you, old coal oil light Chorus:
