Howdy,

I was at a gathering this summer and played this song with some other players and music lovers. A gal pulled me aside and said
she really liked the song and it had a good message, but I needed another verse , so after a couple months I sat down and added another verse. So here's a simple song from a Simple Fella

The Land Of the Free

[G]Living was easy , we spent more than we [C] made.
[D]My Father knew better shoulda listened to what he[G] said
[G]We thought life was easy it was all a big[C] joke
[D]We're the land of the free and the home of the[G] broke

[G]Living was easy and our credit, it was [C]good
[D]Wished I'd  listened to my father, if only I [G]could
[G]We were livin high there weren't no end in [C]sight
[D]Should listened to daddy , shoulda known he was [G]right.

Hello Everyone,

Just made it back to civilization after a 25 day hitch in the outback of Wyoming. I am gonna play with my toys and chill out, this was one of the most stressfull things I have done for awhile. Hired out to a new company and they are very corporate and a big shock to my system.

Here is a nice song, a friend put together. He is a young fella but has been makin music since he was just a little boy. Adam Taylor plays guitar , banjo and harmonica. He is a good friend of my daughter Maria and he played at her wedding. Adam and I played together at the reception. He is very serious about his music and comes from a great musical family. Adam's 21 now and I think he has a bright future.

Here's a vid of an original song he put together
