Friends

The older we get, the more we realize we have to do things better . . . From Now On.

From Now On

Life has it's trials. When these troubled situations occur, we can cry and be a victim, or, we can pick ourselves up, move on, and look for new exciting opportunities. And, of course, Big boys don't cry (Well, Maybe A Little Bit), sitting around wondering, "Why Me!" Cried A Little Bit was written, performed, recorded, and arranged by Pete Fossi.

Cried A Little Bit

Many people have jobs that take them away from home for days, weeks, even months at a time. Truck drivers, service men and women, business people and many others spend lonely hours  traveling and in lonely hotel rooms wishing they could be home with family and friends. This original song is about such a person, a touring musician, who is on his way home after a long gig on the road. I'll Be Home Tonight is written, performed and recorded by Pete Fossi.

I'll Be Home Tonight

Along The way, as we go through life, we learn so much. So, as we reach the Silver Years we hope that we can pass some helpful  knowledge on to our kids and grandkids, making their lives journey just a little easier. Along The Way was written, Performed, and recorded by Pete Fossi

Along The Way

Walkin My Baby Back Home

This is one of the earliest random tracks I did that never ended up on an "album".  I recorded it during a difficult time in my life when I didn't have much by the way of a job.  I was feeling low and you can hear that in the lyrics.  The upside was that I had lots of time to record.  I really enjoyed doing all the electric guitar parts and the backward piano notes at the end.

Savor

Things are so Politically Polarized in the world and this country, we may have reached a point where compromise is impossible. So, rather than try to get along, We can just throw in the towel and Say, "It Is What It Is!"

 It Is What It Is

CHORUS
It seems there's nothing I can Change, It is what it is
It's just fruitless I can't explain, It is what it is
VERSE ONE
People say I should be wary
Cause Politics has gotten scary
No one's right and everybody's wrong
Everyone's is for free speech
Unless, of course you disagree
Then nobody cares what you have to say
BRIDGE
I don't care
So Please spare Me 'cause
CHORUS
It seems there's nothing I can Do, It is what it is
I'll never do what you want me to, It is what it is
VERSE TWO
People say I should be wary
PC attitudes have gotten scary
Gotta worry what they teach in schools, Oh Yah
They want to change our history
Don't care what we used to be
Insist their values are what we need
BRIDGE
I don't care
So Please spare Me 'cause
CHORUS THREE
I'm sure there's nothing I can say, It is what it is
You won't listen any way, It is what it is
VERSE THREE
People say I should be wary
Religious Freedom has gotten scary
They threaten you 'cause you don't believe their way, Oh Yah
Nobody is above the laws
Unless it is against their cause
All bets are off if you get into their way, Oh Yah
BRIDGE
I don't care
So Please spare Me 'cause, Yah, Yah

It Is What It Is

Many good times south of the border. But, it's always more fun and safer if you know where to go and not go w with someone who knows  what to do and not do! Original song, written arranged and performed by Pete Fossi
