My name is James Ryce. I am a singer/songwriter. I use a ZOOM HD8CD digital recorder to record my demos in my basement. Most songs on my page are in one stage or another of development (a work in progress I like to say).

Lyrics
Preacher Man © 2010 J.Ryce/D.Wagner Preacher man he told us he's gonna save our souls Had a trunk load full of Bibles in his car down by the road You could taste the bad whisky, smell the cheap perfume As the sun beat us down in the hot afternoon Hm hm hm, the Devils home Hm hm hm, the Devils home Through the screen door of our front porch he slowly came right in The air felt uneasy as he smiled a yellowed grin Mama sensed foul play and said with a nervous smile “Don’t keep your friends waiting son, I’ll come get you in a while” Hm hm hm, the Devils home Hm hm hm, the Devils home Bridge: I've seen the Preacher Man before but I knew something was wrong I ran to the mill where daddy worked all day long Told him bout the Preacher and how he walked right in Daddy said "Boy stay here, till I come for you again He was a wolf in sheeps clothing out preying on his flock Devil got inside him but Daddy made him stop If you find yourself by the muddy river don't be surprised If the waters churned, you might find a bible passing by Hm hm hm, the Devils home Hm hm hm, the Devils gone home Hm hm hm, the Devils home Hm hm hm, the Devils gone home
