this is an old lyric with a new coat,  a quickie on the 4 track tape..........cheers for the listen


i'm standing at the station a fifty in my hand
note on the table explaining my plans
aint got no number no forward address
i won't be home, to clean up no mess
thats all i am
your ball and chain

take what you can, what's left for me
making my days, misery
you know you're the reason i'm turning away
i've told you before, you don't hear what i say
thats all i am
your ball and chain

got to get away, gotta wipe my slate clean
stepping out of a nightmare and into a dream
gotta keep on moving, follow the sun
if i seen you again, i don't know what i woulda done
thats all i am
your ball and chain

Ball & Chain

Another conundrum.................cheers for having a listen


sometimes you want to find out but you don't want to know
when it's laid out straight and the facts still show

eyes can see in a minute
the deed don't fit the crime
you gave it to another now you've gone and put it all on the line
right place wrong time

when your head says yes but your heart says no
you push against the tide just to wash up on the shore

holding on for dear life
walking on the edge of a knife
cheques in your pocket but you're never gonna see a dime
right place wrong time

right place wrong time
when you're the only one who cannot see
it's all just dreaming, pie in the sky
it was never ever meant to be
right place wrong time

when you need to reach out but you don't want to talk
so you sit down with the night all alone with your thoughts

asking who you think you're kiddin
you start to get used to the life
what you gonna do when you gotta leave it all behind
cheques in your pocket but you're never gonna see a dime
you gave it to another now you gone and put it all on the line
for the right place wrong time

Right Place Wrong Time

another Blue......................cheers for having a listen


well i dont want to hear about it
i dont want to have to bite my tounge
not much we can do, so maybe tonight
we wont, have to blue
no i dont wanna blue

i dont want to know about it
keep your secrets to yourself
i got them too, and maybe tonight
we wont, have to blue

dont say nothing, when theres nothing to say
its only words, and they get in the way

oh i dont want to think about it
im trying to keep it of my mind
lets just enjoy the view, and maybe tonight
we wont have to blue
no i dont want to blue

and i dont want to talk about it
its all been said before
such a waste of time, and maybe tonight
we wont have to blue

Blue

for an old mate.............cheers for having a listen


sometimes i don't feel like being the social kind
catchup with you another day
i just need some time away, hope you don't mind

i did my time, paid my dues
wiped away my tears, sang my blues
said my goodbyes, some much too late
went to sleep with the devil, woke up a saint

if i could i think i would, get far away so im never found
but then again i don't like flying
so i'll just keep my good foot on the ground

i fought too much, sometimes not enough
tried to smooth out the edges, when its naturally rough
i've buttoned my lip, then yelled so loud
hung my head, then never felt so proud

to be a loner

peace...........thanks for listening



a mother said to her child
take your time while you're still young
and when they tell you that you're not from here
you say i was born under this sun

cos it saddens me
and brings a tear to my eye when i see what we've become
when you tell me it's not my land i say
i was born under this sun

the motherland told us once
no matter where you're from
you're welcome at my gates
we're all born under one sun

we run the human race
yet we're the only ones
who can change our wicked ways
 we're all born under one sun

a mother said to her child one day
walk tall and never run
cos you'll need every once of strength you got
when you're born under this sun

YeahNah

a little song about appreciation and sticking together............thanks for listening and merry christmas


you're the blue up in my sky
the twinkle in the eye
aint no mountain seem too high
when you are by my side

you're the no and i'm the yes
you're the answer i'm the guess
everything just seems a mess
without you by my side

sometimes the days aint long enough
to do what we gotta do
and get on with what really matters
like taking care of me and you

my island in the sun
a place to hide when i'm on the run
i could easily come undone
without you by my side

cool me down like summer rain
seek me out when i'm lost again
among enemies you're my friend
who stands right by my side

like a dusty road that never ends
the long goodbye, to part as friends
just know that we'll meet again
and we'll walk side by side
