You ever notice, that, when the kids bring in their "flowers", that it's Nana, that put the dandelions in vases?
keyboard vocals original music harmonica not hip hop just new music
Artist picture
I'm a fifty nine year old musician. I play guitar, harmonica, and I sing.
My music, I hope, will not die when I die. I'm trying to create a legacy that my kids can listen to as well as other people should they want to. I'm getting pretty old, and my health is not good. But yeah. That about sums up my music thing. That looks more like an obituary. My brother Jimmy got me playing as a teenager, and he went to be with the Lord, as well as my brother Steve, but my love for music has not ceased. Not at all.

Lyrics
The buds are coming out on trees and bushes Dandelions are lifting their pretty yellow faces Kids are in the yard picking them for Nana and for Mama They bring them in and Nana puts them in vases ( chorus ) God knows when Jesus will come knocking - If I'm not dead yet God knows what I'd'a' been if it wasn't in that trailer God knows I've been a baffoon and I've been sarcasm, - incarnate God knows that I've never felt like I was a failure Yellow is the sun that sinks down orange And I watch the sunset with mild skepticism I love it, at night, when the beach water's warm and tolerable I love it when we make love and go swimming God knows... Someday I don't think I'll be around to say goodbye Someday we will sink down in a bog It is crazy when we're so into getting a goodbye That we can't see that it's already come and gone You'd have to bring a lot of water working the railroad And keep your water warm, warm enough to drink If you committed yourself to the Alaskan pipeline Keeping water warm wouldn't be as easy as I think God knows... I knew this girl who kept someone elses pee taped to her leg In case the councelor she has wanted to check out her system That's the way it goes, when it comes to beg "Please can I have some pee? I'm into patriotism" God knows...
