Natural Bridges

How can I build a bridge to you
It’s not impossible to do
Start by finding common ground
Something solid, something sound
I will listen to your heart
If you vow to do your part
To hear my story too, that’s all I’m asking you
Nothing there to prove
Building Natural Bridges
Natural Bridges
How did we get so far apart
Or was it like that from the very start
Living different roads
Hearing different versions of a story told
That burning anger in your eyes
Is hardly fuel for compromise
But I am not your enemy
I’d Truly love for you to see
How different we could be
Building Natural Bridges
Natural Bridges
Without anger, without fear of
Losing what we hold so dear
A little patch of common ground
Something solid, something sound
Natural Bridges

100 Miles from Memphis

100 miles from Memphis
Swear I hear the sound
Of funky laid back pickin’
Yeah, that’s what’s going down
Gets my heart a thumpin’
And my head spinnin’ around
100 miles from Memphis
Tennessee bound
Cats are playing simple
Cats are playing cool
Sisters singing sweetly
Making up the rules
They’re born with it
They live with it
They die with it
Makin’ love with that Memphis
Southern Groove
Maybe it’ the Delta water
Come up from the ground
Maybe it’s the pulpit preaching
“Lost, ye shall be found”
All the ghosts on Beale Street
Ardent, Royal, Sun, Stax, American too
I’m hundred miles from Memphis
To hear what’s goin’ down
Feel what’s going down
At Southern Grooves
They’re born with it
They live with it
They die with it
They’re makin’ love with that Memphis
Southern Groove (repeat)
100 miles from Memphis
Southern Groove

Last Best One Around

Been searching all around
To see what’s goin’ down
It’s nothing like it ever used to be
Cats were making sounds
In every bar in town
Lookin’ like it’s down to you and me
Brother, you’re the last best one around
Ain’t nobody feels it like you do
Always drummin’ from a deeper ground
You’re lookin’ like the last best one in town
Passion is the fuel
For making our own rules
Pedal to the metal every day
Flames forever burnin’
Wheels forever turnin’
Grind you down to nothin’ along the way
But brother, you’re the last best one around
Ain’t nobody feels it like you do
You’ve been driving down some shaky ground
Still lookin’ like the last best one in town
Life won’t let up, It’s a setup
To deny our hearts
Knock down, gettin’ up
Rebound, messin’ up
All we ever wanted was to play our part
Brother, we’re the last best ones in town
No one ‘round here plays ‘em like we do
Gimme 4, then we’ll lay one down
Brother we’re the last best ones around…town

Goodbye to the 60’s
Tomorrow’s gonna be a brighter day
So long to my 60’s
You’re in my rearview mirror all the way
Bid you a fond fare thee well
It’s mutual, I can tell
Time to slam that book on you and mee
Goodbye 60’s
No more rush hour freeway jam
Maybe some gal can be the man
No more tryin’ to make it pay
It made no difference anyway
Tomorrow I won’t miss you
Though you’ve been good to me
So I’m blowin’ you a kiss
And let’s let each other be
I’ve been through two rounds of 60’s
The first one shaped the man I try to be
I’ve learned that freedom isn’t free
And you gotta give back what you’ve earned
As for MY 60’s
It’s the fourth quarter, there are no guarantees
None of us gets out of here alive
And too many of my friends are gone way too soon
And so it’s time…
Goodbye to the 60’s
Tomorrow’s gonna be a brighter day
So long to my 60’s
You’re in my rear view mirror all the way
Bid you a fond fare thee well
It’s mutual, I can tell
Time to slam the book on you and mee
Goodbye 60’s
And I’m looking forward to tomorrow
