I wanted to write a song that seemed as if it had been around for decades. Goin’ down to New Orleans is my attempt at that, it’s an old fashioned boogie woogie type song, sing along!

GOIN' DOWN TO NEW ORLEANS

I'm goin' down to New Orleans, man I love that southern vibe
I got a feeling New Orleans might well change my whole life
I want to be and be seen in New Orleans

I'm gonna take the greyhound and journey all day and night
And I'll make New Orleans by the early morning light
Then I can be on the scene in New Orleans

I'm gonna walk down Bourbon Street
I'm gonna tell everyone I meet
This is me living the dream
Right here in New Orleans

I'm goin' down to New Orleans who knows what I'm gonna find
But I know that New Orleans is gonna be great for my state of mind
When I can be on the scene in New Orleans

I'm gonna walk down Bourbon Street
I'm gonna tell everyone I meet
This is me living the dream
Right here in New Orleans

I'm goin' down to New Orleans, man I love that southern vibe
I got a feeling New Orleans might well change my whole life
I want to be and be seen in New Orleans

Truth, revered and required where trust abounds...often slanted, (if not hidden)...until it abandons the liars mouth and leaps...but too late it attempts to redeem its liars' victim(s)


The truth has fallen from your tongue
the gavel dropped
the jury hung
and I waited...seems like decades
and if I'd held my breath...sweet life would then have faded
yea
and suddenly I'm retreating
uncertainty...so defeating
and I am grieving who have you become?
How am I now seen?
for all the world is changing...tender hearts are taking leave
and I see your vision
through careful framing
an assassins' lips you've been grazing
and like Icarus...you need
send you tumbling from the sun
melting feathers free
the truth unfettered
flutters as I bleed
falling from your tongue as you're tumbling from the sun
O the truth has fallen from your tongue as you're tumbling from the sun
