BLACK ROSE OF SHARON_320.mp3 Guardian feat Debra Lyn  Songwriter: Ethan Johnson  Palette Records

(See Lyrics at the bottom.) Just finished this new American Roots Performance track. Was one of the first songs I ever performed as a singer-songwriter many moons ago. I had just returned from two years studying music in India and, that, along with my love of Blues and Stevie Wonder tended to move me towards melismatic vocalizing. Motherless Child was just about my earliest experimenting with that. 

The horrific suffering in Ukraine and amongst refugees everywhere brought the tune to mind again. I was inspired to write a new bridge for this traditional song; I'm sure my vocal performance is far more intense now than it was all those years ago.

Motherless Child (Revisited)
(Traditional, with new added Bridge, words and music ©David S. Goldman/World Wave Music (ASCAP)
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child (3X)   
A long way from home, so far from home. 
Sometimes I feel like I’m almost gone  (3X)
A long way from home, so far from home. 
Sometimes I feel like I’ve never been born  (3X)
A long way from home, so far from home. 

But I hear your voice, I know your sound 
Out on the road, I feel your ground
I call your name, can you feel my pain? 
I miss your touch, I hurt, hurt so much

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child (3X)
A long way from home, so far from home.

Motherless Child (Revisited)

"A mistake that keeps being repeated is not a mistake, it's a choice." - Unknown

It's about taking chances, riding the river of life, and inspired by my love of those classic songwriters and their lo-fi vibe.  

Ride the river.

Lyrics:

Well i've been down that troubled road before, many times afoul.
And i know every stone and tree and pothole, I've stepped on them and howled.
Yet still looking down that dusty road temptation calls my name.
Oh how does the painful sensation pull me to make the same mistakes again?

Oh there's a bridge over the river, which takes me home with ease,
But if life was always so easy, we'd never scrape our knees.
Yeah the trees, the bees and blades of grass get teased by the breeze and terrain,
But if we never ride that river, we'll make the same mistakes again.

That old uneven road has made me trip surely more than thrice,
And yet somehow I keep taking the same path, and I keep paying the price.
That bridge up ahead is an easy route that keeps me safe and sound,
But if I take that river, I might cover greater ground. 

Well there's a bridge over the river, which takes me home with ease,
But if life was always so easy, we'd never scrape our knees.
Yeah the trees, the bees and blades of grass get teased by the breeze and terrain,
But if we never ride that river, we'll make the same mistakes again.

BRIDGE

Well this boat is a bit flimsy, but in life there are never guarantees.
Things look so much different when rowing on one's knees,
But I'm moving forward living life, and always seeing new things.
Just looking to see what the future says, and what new things it brings.

Now an unsuspecting wave rolls by, and knocks me in the water.
Sometimes the cards we're dealt in the game of life, fold and burn or prosper.
As I gasped for air I swore that life will keep me, I'm no martyr.
When I regained my footing I stood real tall, and the world was mine to conquer.

Yeah there's a bridge over the river, which takes me home with ease.
But if life was always so easy, we'd never scrape our knees.
Yeah the trees, the bees and blades of grass get teased by the breeze and terrain,
But if we never ride that river, we'll make the same mistakes again.

Oh there's a bridge over the river, which takes me home with ease.
But if life was always so easy, we'd never scrape our knees.
Yeah the trees, the bees and blades of grass get teased by the breeze and terrain,
But if we never ride that river, we'll make the same mistakes again.
