In the words of James Taylor, It's me and my guitar. Always in the same mood! Then again, maybe my guitar is just humoring me - sigh -
Just me, I'm an old Folksinger that still plays out once in a blue moon. Thank you for listening to my primitive acoustic songs. I am a retired Army Bandsman, a certified Wall Wacker, and am currently a teacher. Next time I retire I am going back into Folksinging. It's the perfect occupation really, no hope of fame and fortune and definately keeps me humble. Folksinging just naturally makes me a better person I s'pose.

Story behind the song
It's expensive to be rich.
Lyrics
The Rich Man Rag Charles W - T Consaul 1. I just became a Millionaire Money coming in from everywhere People want to be my friend So I can buy nice things for them The power of the dollar Has put me in White Collar 2. A nice young man Has a Charitable question to ask He wants to help me pay less income tax A little of this, A little of that I see what they mean about passing the hat Be doubly safe and ask To make sure that the hat comes back C: I'm not complianing as loudly as it seems It's just that people listen harder When they listen for a dollar 2. I just became a Millionaire I don't see how it's getting me anywhere Between my relatives and Uncle Sam I got myself in a terrible jam When I get done paying my dues I'll be singing the Hoboe Blues Chorus 3. Well, I'm the guy that they Call the Millionaire You look for me, you won't find me anywhere It's not that I am scared or shy But I got the perfect alibi I'm just looking for someone as poor as myself Who will love me in spite of my wealth Yes I'm just looking for a lady In reasonable health Who will love me in spite of my Nose!
