Just a middle-aged guy who's been carrying song ideas around in his head for years and has decided to learn the craft and hopefully produce something decent eventually

Story behind the song
The true story of my maternal grandparents
Lyrics
Gooseneck Road © 2009 Swartzentruber/Bridges Cardboard walls between the rooms But each child had a space Grandpa worked from dawn to dusk Carvina019 life out of this place Felling trees and slopping hogs Odd jobs on the side Never had a lot to show But we knew he always tried On a hill up Gooseneck Road Where the family was raised On a hill up Gooseneck Road Where their legacy was made Love passed down from hand to hand Just like those threadbare clothes On a hill up Gooseneck Road Three babies died before their time Tore Grandmaa019s world in two Four more children needed her So she did what she had to do On a hill up Gooseneck Road Where the family was raised On a hill up Gooseneck Road Where their legacy was made Love passed down from hand to hand Just like those threadbare clothes On a hill up Gooseneck Road That house no longer stands On that worn out piece of land But when Ia019m there I hear the sound Of all that made me who I am Echo from that hallowed ground Chorus
