homegrown music...all natural, no fillers, no artificial colors.
....so nice of y'all to drop by! I'm a little southern lady who grew up during the glorious sunshiny 70's in a small beach town in N. Florida. An awesome time to begin to figure life out...catching the tail-end of the "age of aquarius" and gettin' to enjoy the freedoms that bunch won for us before the angst of the 80's and 90's set in. Try bein' a teenager today!!! Ha! I learned to play guitar by picking one up and flippin' open a CSN&Y songbook to "Helpless". Well, nobody told me I was playin' the thing up-side-down! I'm a lefty, ya know...held it like it felt right to me. Still play that way to this day. Took up the banjo and the ukulele and turned them up-side-down too. I wrote my first song at the age of 45 and now I've got a whole batch of 'em. I don't ever set out to write any particular song...just get a phrase that sticks and pretty soon the rest of it comes. Really, I don't write them at all...God just down-loads 'em into my brain and I jot them down and then sing and play them. To Him be the honor and the glory! So there you have it...or at least this part of it. I'd talk yer ears nearly clean offa yer hear if you'd indulge me. Thanks again for stoppin' by...next time I'll make a cake and brew some coffee. yerz, Ellen https://ellenmoseley.bandcamp.com

Story behind the song
I've gotta bad case of "squirrels"......can anybody relate?
Lyrics
I. well, I bought myself a Smith & Wesson plastic BB gun gonna cop a squat out in the yard and have a little fun when those squirrels come sneaking up to eat up my bird seed gonna pop 'em in their furry butts and sting 'em like a bee Chorus: so run, Squirrel, run, this girl has got a gun I ain't afraid to shoot some people might complain, but they don't feel my pain they say those squirrels are cute run, squirrel run, I've got a gun and I've practiced till my aim is true so, head for the hills, cause this girl has got some skills and I'm drawing a bead on you II. well, I started with a Nerf gun but that didn't do much good 'cept make 'em think I'm crazy all around my neighborhood but now I'm armed and dangerous watch out for this girl! but don't you fear, oh my dear unless you are a squirrel.... Chorus
