The Stroke (Billy Squier Cover)

Legend
By Jamie Patrick Sutton ©2002 - 2023

Who knows the crimes you’ve lived
Or why you fled home land 
Crossing the deep blue sea
To beaches of forgiving sand

Planted new roots north
Eastern North America
Your wife in fear of you
Eleven children at her feet

Oh!

Legend has it
You were one hell of a
Son of a bitch

Legend has it
You were one hell of a
Son of a bitch

I heard

So much time has past
Long you’ve been deceased 
Few things were said of you
Few things to say the least

Generations after you 
Your first name was erased 
Few things were said of you
Few things, all disgrace

Legend has it
You were one hell of a
Son of a bitch

Legend has it
You were one hell of a
Son of a bitch

A 2022 remake of a song that I wrote and recorded a demo for in 2001.

My Mind Just Quit On Me

Death
By Jamie Patrick Sutton ©2002 - 2023

Been thinking
About death a lot

What it is
What it’s not

Don’t know
How I’ve got

To be thinking
About death a lot


Some say souls
Go up to the sky

For others 
It’s just a part of life
 
Either way we
Seem surprised 

How hard it is
To say goodbye 



Been thinking
About death a lot

What it is
What it’s not

Don’t know
How I’ve got

To be thinking
About death a lot


Ones truth is
Another’s lie

Hoping that there
Is an afterlife

By virtue of
Our demise

None of us are
Getting out alive


Been thinking
About death a lot

What it is
What it’s not

Don’t know
How I’ve got

To be thinking
About death a lot

Happy Day (2002 Demo)

Vega
By Jamie Patrick Sutton 

Save your thoughts
For another day

Keep them inside
and locked away

Once they find out
There’ll be hell to pay

Slam the door
And drive away

The time is now
We gotta get away

Meet me outside
No time to wait

Once they find out
There’ll be hell to pay

Slam the door
And drive away


Take us both
For a ride

Take us both
For a ride

Get gone
Stay gone


In the Vega
We'll get away

Back to the place
That we once stayed

Might get lost
But that's ok

We could use the time
Then we'll say

Save your thoughts For another day

Keep them inside and locked away

Once they find out
There’ll be hell to pay

Slam the door And drive away


Take us both
For a ride 

Get gone
Stay gone

Together Today
By Jamie Patrick Sutton ©2002 - 2024

Argue with metaphors
Slamming all the doors
As painful as it is to say

Find some light or path
To escape each others wrath
Let us live to fight another day


(Chorus)
Together today
Like we met just yesterday
We’ll be gone tomorrow 
But for now
We’re together today


Put this behind us
All the anger and disgust
We’ve said all there is to say

Remember way back when
Many years nine or ten
Who knew that we’d be here today?


(Chorus)
Together today
Like we met just yesterday
We’ll be gone tomorrow 
But for now
We’re together today


Now it’s all said and done
Not sure who had won
Maybe it's better off that way

Until we meet again
Don’t know exactly when
Let’s not wor-ry till that day


(Chorus)
Together today
Like we met just yesterday
We’ll be gone tomorrow 
But for now
We’re together today

Together Today

Falling Down
By Jamie Patrick Sutton ©2002 - 2024

Another sunny day
And everything is ok
Until your world
Comes falling down

Find the easy way
Just to have your own say
While your world 
Comes falling down

Let blinders mask your view
Go on and do as you do
While your world
Comes falling down

Out of sight, out of mind
Stay biased for your own kind
While your world 
Comes falling down

Fight for what you believe
Ignore what all the others see
While your world 
Comes falling down

What remains shall find it's way
Cause we’ll all be gone someday
Cause our world
Had fallin' down

Falling Down

Scrapes & Scars
By Jamie Patrick Sutton ©2002 - 2025

You like coconut 
And I like mint
here we are in
this lifelong stint

New friends checking in
Old friends checking out

You social Butterfly
And me the hermit type

All our crazy ways
In those hazy days
When our future 
Was so far away

Keep a look out
For team number one
Let’s sing our song
Before it’s sung

New friends checking in
Old friends checking out

You social Butterfly
And me the hermit type

Together through the years
Many laughs and tears
As we move far
From yesterday

Take a good look at all
Our scrapes and scars
Wasn’t always easy yet
We’ve got this far.
