Paranoid (Not Anymore)

G-Beautiful Stigma

Words

I try my best
I never do anything less
I've worked hard for you
In everything I do

But I can't stop the rain
Make the sun shine again
So many things that I can't do
If I could I'd do it for you

Can't buy you the things you like
Can't make love 'til the morning light
Can't buy you those Vuitton shoes
Guess I've got a poor mans blues

And I can't stop the rain
Make the sun shine again
So many things I can't do
If I could I'd do them for you

Instrumental

But I can't stop the rain
Make the sun shine again
So many things that I can't do
If I could I'd do that for you

I gave you a loving heart
And that was just the start
You wanted more than I could give
You say that you can't live like this

I'd Do It For You

I used a piano backing track on this

I have been sick, and my voice is not completely healed yet, but it is what it is :)

Æ lage mange sanga for å uttrykke mæ sjøl
Og av og til e tekstan ganske mørk
Men når æ tenke på
De gode folkan i mitt liv
Da lage æ teksta med et smil...

2
Noen ganga føles livet vanskelig og tøft
Og probleman dukke opp i kø
Men når æ tenke på
De gode folkan i mitt liv
Blir tåran erstatta med et smil..

Chorus:
Selv om det regne og bilen går i stå
Vil det alltid finnes grunna til å le
Når æ tenke på
De gode folkan i mitt liv
Kan æ møte probleman med et smil!

3
På en regnfull dag skal æ minne mæ sjøl på
At æ e ganske heldig uansett
For når æ tenke på
De gode folkan i mitt liv
Har æ all grunn til å leve med et smil..

Chorus x 2
Selv om det regne og bilen går i stå
Vil det alltid finnes grunna til å le
Når æ tenke på de gode folkan i mitt liv
Kan æ møte probleman med et smil! :)

De Gode Folkan I Mitt Liv (Norwegian version of The Good People In My Life)

"Family Reunions"
Guitar, vocal, and lyrics by
Linda Straub

Crickets on summer evenings 
dinner on the grounds
Grandpa playing guitar
such sweet southern sounds 

Grandma in her beads and apron
sitting in an adirondack chair
catching her much needed breath
from all her work and loving care

Oh, thanks for those family reunions
all the laughter and precious love
The memory of those happy times
now are soft echoes from above. 

Everyone gathered together
so much joy to be found
we sang songs and told old tales
and passed them all around

Grownups sittin' in lawn chairs
and children running 'round
Picnic tables full of southern food
at those dinners on the grounds

Oh, thanks for those family reunions
all the laughter and precious love
The memory of those happy times
now are soft echoes from above

The memory of those happy times
now are soft echoes from above.

Family Reunions (Original)


I am drawn to folk, blues, soft rock, and country music, new and old. I love songs that tell a story, especially the Irish, English, and Scottish ballads of long ago because their stories are often timeless, and most everyone at any time can relate to. 
 
I also am a pastel painter and find being able to express universal emotions through my art, as well as writing lyrics and putting them to music that I can sing and play on my guitar or ukelele so rewarding and comforting.

Memories of people, places, and events throughout my life influence the songs I write.
