Country music from the heart of a county boy.
Well folks, catch some new tracks featuring the vocal styling of Mr. Mike Perreria and Mr. David Bell. Yes, a few of these tracks are from the long lost County Line sessions!!! And yes, some of them still have my lack luster vocals on them, but I'm working to remedy that part. Note that almost all (except 1) of the tracks are new. Very soon I'll be unveiling my next "album." I'll put the tracks up with the scratch vocals, and will work at finding some suitable voices.

Lyrics
Headed north on Highway forty-one Was a cloudy moonlit night Picked up a station, last game of the series Scully was doing the call His voice and the lights were my only companions Out on that old lonely road Ate at a truck stop in Nowhere City I got to thinking about home Grabbed me napkin, and asked for a pen That's where I wrote this song Back on the road, going on and on My thoughts were on my home Chorus And I was Pushing my truck up to 90 miles an hour Burning up the lonely old night The yellow line takes me where I wanna be Traveling that old road home Hit rain at the county line As Clint Black sang that song Flipped the channel some old rock and roll Singing "Bad to the Bone" Rolled down the window on that last road The smell of home crept in Bridge The tires hum that familiar tune The tune that drives me home
