Folk, some Blues and light Rock influences, as well as Country.

Hi! Welcome to my page. First off, I am primarily a lyricist who occasionally composes his own melodies. That's why you'll see/hear some cowritten songs here. Secondly; I can't sing, even if my life depended on it, so I've posted Studio Demos. Third; I listed my songs as "country, general" but I hope you'll find a little more variety here than what you expected. My hope is that you'll find these songs Very accessible; Songs you can sing along with, Songs you'll know by Heart. ENJOY!!!

Story behind the song

What can I say? I was in a good mood! I just wish there was a "Ragtime" category; this song puts me in mind of Randy Newman...

Lyrics

LIVING THE LIFE I CHOOSE

V1>
When it comes to money, I don’t have a lot.
I know what I’m missing and I know what I got.
I sing a Love song instead of the Blues,
‘Cause I’m living the life I choose.

V2>
Don’t have a chauffeur or a big limousine.
Know where I’m going and I know where I’ve been.
I’m happy wearing out these old beat-up shoes,
‘Cause I’m living the Life I choose.

Bridge>
One in the morning, and outside it’s storming,
But that doesn’t bother me none.
I know when I rise you’ll look into my eyes
With a smile as bright as the Sun.

V3>
So I’ll keep going just the way that I am.
May not be rich but I’m a wealthy man.
I’ve got your Love and I got nothing to prove,
So I’m living the life I choose.





I sing a Love song instead of the Blues,
‘Cause I’m living the life I choose.

Yes, I’m living the life I choose.
