A few small changes to the words...
This was tough, I have such a rough time with vocals, i rerecorded some of them and remixed the track..

Getting up at 4a m before the birds are singing
Rise and shine to the smell of coffee percolating
Load up the truck put the gear in the boat we’ll spend the day out fishing 
What a way to spend a saturday, out on the river 
And the coffeeville road is dark and long but we know which way to go
we’ve been this way a million times to our favorite fishing hole…
The old lock and dam on the Tombigbee river..

Take me down to the river one more time
Let me put my feet in the water to ease my mind 
Let’s go while there’s still time, while the light still shines
And we can feel the breeze, and watch the wind blow through the trees 
The way it used to be  
 
The river is life, the river is love, but the river is tough sometimes
And the river is hope, the river  is dreams , as  it runs through our lives
it’s full of the memories of the times we had together
And it feels like it goes on and on, but nothing lasts forever

 And the Coffeeville road don’t seem as long as it did those years ago
And were going one more time to our favorite fishing hole..

Take me down to the river one more time
You can put your feet in the water to ease your troubled mind
Let’s go while there’s still time, while the light still shines
And we can feel the breeze, and watch the shadows through the trees
My Dad and me…

Father's Day {Complete}

Gosh!  Over a year since I've posted a new song!  It’s been a rough few years, but for me, the past 6 months have been particularly hard.  

This song was written ages ago, but I wanted to record it, just to have a copy for myself.  It’s a one-take piano/singing thing, with flaws but a sense of the underlying feeling.  While I was producing it, it developed a life of its own.  I had thought I’d rock it up with quite a conventional sound, but the drums and bass insisted on having their own unique flavours – ribbons of synth.  Aah well, here it is, a bit rough around the edges but at least I can feel that I am making music again...  thanks so much for listening!

Rock it…

O rock it, come rock baby roll
there’s a tide rolling green through my soul
Somewhere faint I remember the person I am
Rock it, come baby rock baby roll

Seems everyone’s dancing to light, 
there’s a song we all hear in the night
With the moon wide and high static spitting the sky
seems everyone’s dancing to light
Some red and some yellow some white
seems everyone dances to light

And the dust, it comes muddy your veins
dreary life dull and moaning in pain
Circuits broken and lost and you can’t think to cry
lost the code lost the path and can’t understand why
and the meaningless days and interminable nights
when there’s nowhere to fly and the wings lost their flight
found the feathers all crushed on the floor
trampled broken, don’t work any more

O rock it, come rock baby roll
there’s a tide rolling green through my soul
Somewhere faint I remember the person I am
Rock it, come baby rock baby roll

But somehow the cycle moves through,
the winds of change whisper and call
some beat in your brain lets the sleep patterns change
to the pulse of the blood and the beat of the brain
and awaken arise to the life-song refrain

O rock it, come rock baby roll
there’s a tide rolling green through my soul
Somewhere faint I remember the person I am
Rock it, come baby rock baby roll

Original lyrics (not too complicated 😜) by kavvka:

Gdzie serca splecione w skowronkach?

Jasieńku, Jasieńku czemuś ty zły na mnie?
Jam Ci to życie chciała ułożyć jak w niebie.
Dlaczegoś, dlaczegoś mnie zostawił dla niej?
Jam Ci to chciała jeno wyjść za ciebie.

Oj dana,
oj dana,
oj dana

English translation:

Where our hearts bounded in skylarks melody?

Oh Johnny, oh Johnny why are you mad at me?
I wanted this life maked into heaven.
Why, oh why you left me for her
I only wanted to be your wife 

Oh dah-nah
oh dah-nah
oh dah-nah

Repeat.

Lyrics:
What's real or not I don't know
It ebbs and it flows
Mysteries of my mind, nobody knows

I take your word as truth, sing your song today

I'm confused and so are you
Fighting for a cause cuz' they told us to
Blind reason that we think is always true
Lead to dirty water but it tastes so sweet
Washed my brain I cannot sleep
It's funny that we cannot think

Take your word as truth, never understand
The game they play with our brain, It's  not OK
We always lose

When will we begin to stand and rise
And see through their, their thin disguise 

It's such a shame that it's all a game
They play with our lives
Used for their selfish gain, they have no compromise

Stand and Rise

Lyrics:

Let me tell you my story
I was constantly hungry
I used to think about food
All day everyday
For every food that I ate
I knew the number
For every step that I'd take
I knew the number
Those numbers filled up my brain
I got really good at mental arithmetic

You worry cos I'm bigger
But I'm better
Than I was before
You worry cos I'm bigger
But I never
Had this energy before
This is the size
I'm meant to be
And I'm sorry that you don't believe me

This is how it would go
When I walked into a room
I would check my size
Beside all the other women
And I would determine
Where I would stand
In the line
Does that sound like a healthy mind?

You worry cos I'm bigger
But I'm better
Than I was before
You worry cos I'm bigger
But I never
Had this clarity before
This is the size
I'm meant to be
And I'm sorry that you don't agree
You think that you know what it means
But can you think differently?

Bigger

I've Got You Under My Skin

ITS 1917 IN SURREY AND

 FROM THE MOUNTAIN TOPS TO THE LOWLAND SEAS NEW LINES ARE DRAWN IN CASUALTIES

It’s been nice but I can not stay
I’ve seen what the papers say
Reminds me of what Iago said
And part of it stuck in my head
Hey slacker some men in khaki cry
It’s the green eyed monsters call to die
But it mocks the meat on which it feeds 
As the more it takes the more it needs

And at Madame Lind’s the lights are on
The clink of Glass and pianola song 
I can still hear as I reach my door 
Where a letter looms on the hallway floor

Now I was nearly forty one
when I appealed for my exemption 
For domestic hardship would ensue 
If I should limp round the colours too
Cause rheumatic fever did for me
When I was young my stick you see
So to aid the prosecution of the war 
In a civil role I’d help much more

And mechanically it carries on 
The ticking clock goes on and on 
Below the mantle piece supine on my knees
The fires lit with obituaries 

And like the steam from the six forty six
I was compelled into a new office
Where the letters swam in elusive shoals
I cast my net of coherent wholes
And the thief of time had been and gone
when the knot i tied it came undone
And that’s when I began to roam 
Beneath starlight and hedgerow 
I made my home

And I woke with the feathered songsters song 
And in my bones I felt the sunlight shone
Touched by the beauty of life and its brevity 
From small mindedness momentarily 

I took my, I took my, I took my , I took my      leave
