"19th. Degree Blues" (Jack Miller) [06.02.25]

19th. Degree Blues [06.02.25]

When every war is lost
And every hatred spent
Some folks will throw a ball
And some will boo
With nothing left to feel & do

Hep hep-hep!

Don't start assumin'
What makes us human

Huh huh-huh
Chet-chet
Hey-ey-ye pom

When I was a child
I did believe, I did believe
In Socrates
And all the Greeks who said that
We could all be good

I sat and smiled
As teachers taught we were the greatest
Fought the hardest
Just to win back
A tiny fraction of what used to be ours

It's understood
The meek & mild must toughen up
When something greater is at stake
A martyr acts
when lemmings leave

No wreaths for cowards!
It took the dying of a world to make it clear
A Holy War
Rings the gold in someone's purse

We did some bad things
But soandso did so much worse...

When every tribe is lost
And all the money spent
Some folks will drown in song
And some will jeer
With no-one left to kill in fear

Hep hep-hep!

Got caught presumin'
What makes us human

Huh huh-huh hek
Chet-chet
Hey-ey-ye pom

I'm still that child
But many reasons and excuses later
I just try to keep afloat without
Kicking my neighbor down

And failing bad
Do I blame the strings that have us tangled
When the strings were made by
Drowners like myself?

What if it's something we can't help?

What Makes Us Human?

This track is about what it feels like to be in a relationship and arguing. 
This demo version is the female vocal piano version. The production version of this track is still being finalised. Thank you for taking the time to listen.

Argument

When you mess up bad with the best thing ever happened  to you and you can’t put things right

This Ol' Cowboy [08.25.25]

   I truly play my instruments, write my own songs, really sing my songs and have an interest in other real singer/songwriters. I don't rely on AI computer software to create my music because I write it myself. It may not appeal to all but I can honestly say it is my own work. My latest Album "Caught In A Moment" released June 20, 2020 along with new video for "Trying To Breathe" released on June 17, 2020. Checkout the link below. 

   Just a simple singer/song writer here that has a great passion for song writing and really singing my songs. Enjoy spending my time in my studio in the mountains of California where my guitar whales through the night with a string snapping now and then. Spend my summers at my home in the mountains and my winters in southern California. At one time I had a regular gig in San Francisco where the people were actually able to watch me perform my songs and purchase my work. 

   I now love to play at small gatherings. No, I don't need to bring my computer along for it to perform instead of me. Love to take my guitar to the beach and sit on the sand and sing to the ocean. Or sit out on my deck and sing to nature. Love to have friends at my home to play or write a song together as we sit out on a warm summer evening.
