One collective location for all my tracks.  This list will update as I complete songs, with each of the songs on the playlist added in the order recorded...as you listen, you'll hear me unwind, my recording engineering skills devolving from today, going back nearly two decades to when I recorded the first song in the list, using Cakewalk and a computer microphone wayyyyy back in 2004.

The Long Day Stables Set

Ladat’s Support Jan’25 vol.2

No Valentine 

Key of A | 4:4 | 112-120 BPM | Train Shuffle 

This one is a fictional story of a boy who lost his Dad, older now but still a kid, reflecting on his loss, just old enough to barely remember him, too young to have made enough memories to hold on to, and whose Momma is so heart-broken, she is unable to move past her own sorrow, to be there for the boy, to start a new life.  Desensitized, lost, and full of grief, his father’s memory is fading, making the pain of loss, and his desire to be loved even greater.  The irony is in Momma’s song, how the boy is drawing parallels to his pain while she sings of hers, and they’re so lost they can’t find each other.   

 

Intro 8 Measures 

Verse 1: 8 Measures 

Daddy found dirt when I was 3, [uh huh] 

He didn’t leave much Momma and me [uh huh] 

The rooster crowed and sang his song 

The sun came up and he was gone [uh huh] 

 

Verse 2: 8 Measures (Vocals change on second and fourth verse) 

I climb the oak tree out behind the chicken pen 

To think about my Daddy and what could’ve been. 

It’s getting hard to find memories, no baseball games, or catch for me [uh huh] 

 

Pre-Chorus:  8 Measures 

I wish this hurt would go away but the pains still fresh and here to stay [uh huh] 

 

Chorus: 8 Measures 

(A) Fill me up with Gasoline, (D) it lights the rag when Momma sings 

(G) No chocolate, wine, just tears for me, (A) No Valentines 

Nothing left but rusty dreams, I burn till sleep while Momma sings 

No kisses, hugs, or man to love, No Valentines 

Bridge/Solo?????   

 

Verse 3: 

I walk the train tracks to the sea [uh huh] 

Swear every whistle’s meant for me [uh huh] 

My Daddy’s ashes in a can and I feel like I burned with him [uh huh] 

 

Verse 4: 

Every step one closer to the morning light. 

Every day one closer to the next goodbye 

Nothing left, no memories, no birthday presents, or Christmas tree.  

 ../ 

Pre-Chorus/  

No, I can’t see nothing now but the blood red sun glow through closed eyes. [uh huh 

 

Chorus 

Fill me up with Gasoline, it lights the rag when Momma sings 

No chocolate, wine, just tears for me, No Valentines 

Nothing left but rusty dreams, I burn till sleep while Momma sings 

No kisses, hugs, or man to love, No Valentines

No Valentines

Hold My Beer 

 

Back in high school sitting down by the lake 
Sipping on some cold ones just my buddies and me 
We got a little froggy and decided to jump  
Right off the cliff from the back of my truck 
 
Here, hold my beer is how it all started 
I’ll never forget those times we had, man, we really knew how to party 
Hold my beer 
 
I saw this girl from across the water 
Moon light hanging on her and I had to meet her  
I could barely swim but it didn’t matter 
Took another sip and said  
 
Here, hold my beer is how it all started 
I’ll never forget those times we had, man, we really knew how to party 
Hold my beer, this could be the one  
I may never look back or I could be wrong  
It don’t matter none 
Hold my beer 
 
That summer past and we said goodbye 
And then she looked back and started to cry  
All I needed was one more song  
One last dance before the summer was gone 
 
Here, hold my beer 
She was all I remember and then the moment past, it just couldn’t last but for a moment in time she’s mine 
So hold my beer 
 
Graduation, college, and a full time job 
A night out with the boys and that song came on  
I heard a voice I hadn’t heard in so many years 
And it said to my friends 
 
Here, hold his beer, that’s how it all started. 

I’ll never forget those times we had 
Could she really be standing there  
Hold my beer 
 
 

Ten years later and we’re back at the lake 

It’s me and the boys and it’s getting late 

Come on Dad let’s go for a swim  

Yeah, you know we jumped right in 
 
Here, hold my beer is how it all started 
I’ll never forget those times we had, man, we really knew how to party 
 

Hold my beer, this could be the one  
I may never look back or I could be wrong  
It don’t matter none 
 

Here, hold my beer 
She was all I remember and then the moment passed, it just couldn’t last but for a moment in time she’s mine 
 
Hold my beer, is how it all started. 
I got the love of my life sitting by my side and I’m never gonna say goodbye 
 
Hold my beer

Hold My Beer

I don't feel like a farmer's son
On the road, don't know where I'm going
Want to stay somewhere that I belong but I don't feel like being anyone

And I, I'm barely getting by.

I feel the fear but I don't ever let on
And no one gets inside, not past these yellow skies
I weather day by day, never losing hope
Waiting for someone to love.

Yes I, I'm barely getting by

Trying to shed this cold stormy soul
And I can't live my life by candlelight, not anymore
All these shadows are closing in on me
Cleanse myself, my phobia in the rain

And I, I'm barely getting by.

I don't feel like a farmer's son
I take what people give me and I run
Try to justify this life that I've undone
Have I turned my back on love

Yes I, I'm barely getting by.

Farmer's Son

Momma’s Home Cook’n

Verse 1
Roosters crow’n with the morning light - and we rise at the brink of dawn
Coffees on hot and it’s say goodbye to tired eyes, get your britches on

Pre-Chorus 1
Fields need tending 
Horses need grain
Working hard in the Sun and the pouring rain
Tired as a dog at the end of the day
Then it’s grits - and we all
Come runnin

Chorus
Ohhh, it’s like a country song
And we’re all gonna sing along
We love Mommas home cooking
Daddy by the fire 
Drinking whiskey, telling stories
Till the night is gone 

Verse 2
Bareback on the trail and we’re riding high
That’s how it’s done here on long day stables 
Hauling to the shows another rodeo
Yeah, it’s on, and we’re running the table 

PreChorus 2
Driving all night 
Horses need grain
Riding hard in the sun and the pouring rain
Tired as a dog at the end of the day
Then it’s grits and we all come running

And we’re all gonna sing along
We love Mommas home cooking

Verse 3
40 years later and I’m driving by but it’s gone, another subdivision
No fields, no silo, the barn and the house all gone, all gone

Outro
But in my memories,
The horses need grain, and we’re riding hard in the sun and the rain.
Im still tired as a dog at the end of the day
I yell grits, yeah, I’m always running home
And we all come running home

If That Aint Country (Nothing Is) 

VERSE 1 
Wildflowers on the prairie 
Rope swing on the cherry tree 
Braiding crowns out of sweet grass 
Daydreaming about everything 

PRECHORUS  
Sunsetting and she’s still outside. 
Trading butterflies for starry nights 
Her nail polish is the dirt inside. 
No horses but she’s riding high. 

CHORUS 
If that ain’t country, nothing is. 
She’s got a heart like Dixie. 
Brown eyes that smile in the rain 
Patsy Cline would lose her mind. 
Johnny Cash would walk the line. 
Bocephus would tip his hat and C grin. 
If that ain’t country nothing is. 

VERSE 2 
I blame it all on her roots. 
Vivaldi on her violin. 
Ain’t a fiddle but it’s just the same. 
She makes the devil RUN. 
 
PRECHORUS  
Suburban girl in secondhand boots 
That kids got a heart of gold. 
Aw come on now she’s like a southern wind. 
Take her hand, let her carry you home. 

CHORUS 
If that ain’t country, nothing is. 
She’s got a heart like Dixie. 
Brown eyes that smile in the rain 
Patsy Cline would lose her mind. 
Johnny Cash would walk the line. 
Bocephus would tip his hat and C grin. 
If that ain’t country nothing is. 

BRIDGE 
When we’re on the road again. 
Here by my side my highway kid 
If that ain’t country nothing is. 
Waylon, Willy, Charlie Pride 
I ain’t saying step aside. 
But you can’t deny this kid. 
If she ain’t country, no one is 

VERSE 3 
Fireflies and a full blue moon 
Humming Chattahoochee is her favorite tune. 
Piggyback ride in Daddy’s cowboy hat  
It’s a dance that we’ll never forget.  

PRECHORUS  
Her bicycle is her pickup truck. 
By the pond, skipping rocks, and counting her luck 
She’s a nature girl, she’s my beautiful world.  
Two-steppin through my heart everyday 

CHORUS 
If that ain’t country, nothing is. 
She’s got a heart like Dixie. 
Brown eyes that smile in the rain 
Patsy Cline would lose her mind. 
Johnny Cash would walk the line. 
Bocephus would tip his hat and C grin. 
If that ain’t country nothing is.

If That Aint Country

Not all things fade by nature. Some are made to disappear.

Evanescent Frequency mirrors a world where decay is no longer organic but imposed, where lifespans—of objects, ideas, and even sound—are carefully engineered to be short-lived. In nature, resonance lingers, and silence comes gradually. But in an age of programmed obsolescence, disappearance is manufactured, ensuring that what was once essential is discarded before its time.

The music unfolds in this same manufactured cycle. It begins with fragments—small pulses of energy, scattered textures that gradually coalesce, gaining complexity and momentum. Harmonies expand, orchestration thickens, and layers accumulate, reflecting the illusion of permanence and progress.

At its peak, the structure begins to dissolve. But this is not destruction—it is an unraveling, an enforced stillness that overtakes what was once vibrant. The density of sound fades into weightlessness, harmonies drift apart, and resonance becomes ghostly, as if the music itself is slipping away into the unreachable. The frequencies do not end abruptly but instead dissolve into an ethereal quiet, mirroring the way things vanish from use yet never fully disappear.

Evanescent Frequency is a meditation on impermanence, on the forces that decide what is allowed to endure and what is designed to be forgotten. It asks us to listen—to what fades, to what remains, and to the silence left behind.

Storm Whispers

Now I Know
Tuned to Open F (E, Capo on 1)
Verse 1:
There ain’t a lot I remember about being a kid but some of it will never go
I remember Daddy driving, window open, cigarette, singing to the radio
I’d fall asleep and he’d carry me in, half-awake in his arms
Momma at my bedside, fingers through my hair, saying prayers, kissing me goodnight
Chorus:
A lot has changed, ain’t much the same
I miss the gravel roads, but now I know where they go
Now I know
Verse 2:
I remember the day of my grandpa’s wake, the first time I saw my Momma cry
And it takes me back to that dollar bet, he took the Dolphins, and I took the Niners
She threw herself on his casket and his screamed name, I didn’t get it, but I sure do now
When love runs deep and the levee breaks, it’s like drowning when you say goodbye
Chorus:
A lot has changed, ain’t much the same
I miss everyone that we’ve lost, but now I know where they go.
Now I know
Bridge:
No, it don’t matter where we started
Home, may be where the heart is
And gone may be where we’re all headed
But now I know everything in between
Well, that’s the gold, yeah, now I know
Solo
Verse 3
I hope they remember me carrying them, playing catch and playing guitar
That their Momma gave every ounce of herself, summer nights walking under the stars
Sharing pictures of my Daddy, stories he told me, and that I let them see my cry
And that they smile when they share our memories, still feel us by their side
Pre-Chorus
A lot has changed, some of it stays the same
Memories, they come and go
Now they know
Chorus: Now they know, now we know, now I know, yeah, now I know……

Now They Know

Life in constant motion
Not a chance to unwind
We Bury all emotion
Stay focused and aligned
This Life it moves so fast
And It’s a relentless race
But I can’t forget the magic
Of that old familiar place

They say you should never look back
But I can’t forget the good times

Holding on to moments 
Like precious grains of sand
Life in the hourglass
Is slipping through our hands
Faces disappearing 
into the flow of time
Never understanding that 
We were living in our prime

They say you should never look back
But I can’t forget the good times

I remember good good good good times
I remember good times 
Feels so long ago

And as the years press on
And the grievances grow
So much resentment from
A thousand years ago
All that has been forgotten 
And all you bet remains
Are the precious memories
Of my most cherished days

I remember good good good good times
I remember good times 

Remember the good times
It’s what makes life worth while
These times will make you smile
And keep your heart alive

Remember Good Times

Wake Me Up in April!

Cri du coeur d'habitants du nord de la France ...automne-hiver 24-25
Cry from the heart from the people of the north of France...autumn-winter 24-25

TRANSLATION (attempt)
Wake Me Up in April

Outside, it's too dirty, too grim
Sidewalks, men’s suits, fog and clouds
layers of gray all around
I'd rather stay hidden in here

Wake me up in April, but until then
Until then, give me a break
A break at home
Let me smooth out all my bumps
And regain  my strength
Dry out all my sorrow
Take back my human form 

I feel better under the quilt
Than on the pavement, the asphalt
I can smell scents of feathers
Forget the wind and the snowflakes

Wake me up in April, but until then
Until then, give me a break
A break at home
Let me smooth out all my bumps
And regain  my strength
Dry out all my sorrow
Take back my human form 

I’m just a little junk turtle 
When the sun tickles gently
The soft cotton of my sheets
I will slip out of my shell

Wake me up in April, but until then
Until then, give me a break
A break at home
Now I’ve smoothed all my bumps
And regained my strength
I shake out all my lace
I hear the bells ringing!

Réveillez-moi en avril (with translation)

There’s a place where the mountains sigh,
Where the rivers hum and the stars won’t die.
Dreams and memories blend as one,
Under skies that burn with an endless sun.

The wind carries songs of a life I’ve known,
Through fields I’ve sown and a love I’ve grown.
Every step I’ve taken, every path I’ve roamed,
Has led me here, to this place I call home.

A perfect world, where the wild runs free,
Built from the threads of my history.
No shadows fall, no storms arise,
Just endless skies where my heaven lies.

There’s a woman’s laugh in the summer air,
Her touch as light as the morning’s prayer.
Good horses graze where the meadows gleam,
And the peace I’ve found feels just like a dream.

A perfect world, where the wild runs free,
Built from the threads of my history.
No shadows fall, no storms arise,
Just endless skies where my heaven lies.

Time doesn’t matter; it drifts away,
Here, every sunrise feels like it stays.
Death had no fangs, it was soft and kind,
And it carried me here, where the stars align.

A perfect world, where the wild runs free,
Built from the threads of my history.
No shadows fall, no storms arise,
Just endless skies where my heaven lies.

If you wonder where I’ve gone to stay,
Follow the light at the break of day.
In the fields and skies where the wild runs high,
You’ll find me there, where my heaven lies.

Where My Heaven Lies

In The Woods 

Intro Progression:  GM > G/F# > GM > em7 > em > DM > D7sus4 > DM7 

 

Verse 1 

(GM) I’ve been trapped here in this city 

I’ve been (G/F#) trying to (GM) escape 

Like cattle in the subway 

To the (G/F#) slaughter we (GM) await  

In this (em7) smog so overwhelming  

Can’t see my (em) hand in front of my (em7) face 

And if it clears the world will see me just a (em) rat inside this (em7) maze  

There’s (DM) trash on every corner rotten (D7sus4) rancid in the (DM7) sun 

(DM) Anonymous or just a zombie 🧟  

Plastic and (D7sus4) steel, the frantic the (DM7) buzz  

 

Pre-Chorus 

(GM) And they build (G/F#) temples to the (em7) sky, they hide our light 

 

Chorus 

(C) Into the woods we all will (C/B) run 

(G) Among the evergreens we’ll play  

(C) Into the woods where we (C/B) belong  

(G) Swimming naked in the (G/F#) lake 

And I’m alive  

 

<Between Verses: GM > G/F# > GM > em7 > em> 

 

Verse 2 

We burn sage and waste the day, lie asleep within these walls 

We pave over every heartbeat until the juice of life has gone  

And we justify our pain by buying shit that we don’t need 

We’re sacrificing our existence, bury our minds within these screens 

And if you think you’re getting by, but have forgotten what the rain feels like 

Then you’re swallowing the lies, it’s not too late to go outside 

 

PreChorus 

But for our will, for our souls, to survive, to find our light  

 

Chorus 

Into the woods we all will run 

Cool in the shade we rest 

We take shelter from the sun 

In the arms of family and friends 

 

Bridge/Out 

(em) And I’m alive (G) And I’m alive (Fades out to the end)
