Well I call it Country General anyway. Tell me if I got it wrong. Graham
been there virgin sand ou
Strictly a demos only performer <br />Jam at live gigs sometimes and have a whole lotta fun doing it
I am writer, and general Mister Nice Guy. I am not a performer but manage to squeak out stuff good enough for others to hear and do better with. Lucky for you lot. I get a few other people to sing and play some of my stuff. I do make Karaoke tracks of my songs and perform them every Saturday night, trotting twix the two local pubs that do karaoke. I have a whole heap more fun than doing covers all the time. Most weeks having at least one new song to try out on the punters. Have seven recorded and getting airplay. And not only on my show Roar Radio either. Backing music for Born To Be Blue is now on a video showing the Esperance service providers. Out soon. More later.

Lyrics
A Man Of The Land © Copyright APRA Graham Henderson 2004 They layed him out, all dressed up. In a suit he’d rarely worn. He was hard to recognise. Shampooed, shaved and shorn. His tastes had been simple. Right from his youth. Simple country living. And simple country truth. Chorus He was a man of the land. One of a dying breed. Who loved the environment. That gave all he’d need. One day there’ll be none. Who’ve known from first hand. What it’s like to truly be. A man of the land. We’ll see them in books, I know. And on TV shows. But who will judge the honesty. Once the last one goes. Some may make it to a movie. That’s been done before. But the box office decrees. T The reality we see. Instrumental Those were my thoughts as I listened. Through each eulogy. And I passed them on to others. When the podium belonged to me. And they came back to me the day. We stood on a mountainside. And cast ashes of a man of the land. Along a trail he loved to ride. Chorus He was a man of the land. One of a dying breed. Who loved the environment. That gave all he’d need. One day there’ll be none. Who’ve known from first hand. What it’s like to truly be. A man of the land.
