Beautiful! She's got a suitcase and she knows how to use it. LOL.

Easy-riding guitar play carries in this tune or life reflection and consequence.  The lyrics are well-written and complex.  It paints the picture on the audio canvas beautifully.  It is a song of heart, feeling and regret that stays with the listener even when the song is finished.

A wonderful song! I like this guitar playing very much.

SHE’S GOT A SUITCASE
I’ve been where you stand, take my advice,
If she warned you once, I’m telling you  now, 
She won’t warn twice
It’s not a threat, this is a promise–
Don’t you confuse it
She’s got a suitcase  and she knows how to use it.

It happened to me, I happened to stray
They say love is free I’m telling you now, 
That I had to pay
You’re not out of time, it hasn’t blown up
But you’ve got the fuse lit
She’s got a suitcase  and she knows how to use it.
BRIDGE:
I’m first to admit– it was more than one time
She means the world, but she walked out of mine
She’s built a pretty good life, I was there, for a minute
Life goes on, just not with her in it.

I promised to change, I raved and I ranted
She took me to task, I’m telling you now, 
I took her for granted
I lost her for good, now you have her love
Don’t blame me if you lose it	
She’s got a suitcase  and she knows how to use it.
She’s got a suitcase  and she knows how to use it.

In the lottery of significance
Old dreams don't make sense
Is it talent or coincidence
That lets a nobody outwit chance
You can use the royalties
To buy a coffee for a homeless man
'cause he might be me
So put money in the can

Family and friends they say
They gonna love you to their dying day
But when it comes to what you create
They shuffle nervously and back away
Maybe one song I make
Will help someone to celebrate
Help somebody break away

So when my passionate lofty plans
In the end don't add up to squat
Throw my ashes in a coffee can
Stow the tapes in a banker's box
And you all can auction it off
In the doughnut shop that time forgot
And bury it all 
in an unmarked plot

This song is a middle finger to a few. But hey. Therapeutic. Gotta say, writing songs just gets me through life. Ya know?

Record Breaker

A slightly tongue in cheek song dedicated to all of the aging rockers who are still out there playing ear candy for the crowd.

Memory Lane

A Better Man
LYRICS-Donnie Ray Perry/Bob Mouat
MUSIC -Bob Mouat 

We're all branded early in our lifetimes
We’ve got memories and scars that never fade
All the bad things seem to happen at the worst times
And we’re haunted by mistakes we’ve made 
DNA and fate control our chances
Tragedies and pain shape who we are
Destiny is just a series of glances
How come what's so near can seem so far 

The man I am, ain't the man I was
The one you see, ain’t me because 
I’m changing everything that I can, to be a better man 

I blamed my dad for all that happened 
And sure as hell he blamed his old man too 
So I guess it means we’ve got a lot in common
Way much my more than either of us knew 
Cause his hurt him, and he hurt me, and I've hurt mine and honestly,
Is this some stupid scene all men go through 

Cause the man I am, ain't the man I was
The one you see, ain’t me because 
I’m changing everything that I can, to be a better man 

I’ll embrace my past, fix my mistakes
Open up the door and let ‘em in
I know I’ve got to do, whatever it takes
I can’t let history, repeat again 

The man I am, ain't the man I was
The one you see, ain’t me because 
I’m changing everything that I can, to be a better man 
I’m changing everything that I can, to be a better man

Lyrics:

HURRY TO GO
“Please, help me, I've lost my way”.
He gets no answer, the men walk away
Hurry to go, they're in hurry to go
No time to take breath,
there is something to do

A car goes speedly, takes no care of the “red”
Now he lies on an hospital bed
Hurry to go, he was in hurry to go
No time to take breath,
there is something to do

To run at night, to run at day
Woe! If you stop you can lose your way
To run at day, to run at night
Woe! You don't care that it holds you tight
We don't perceive how is going bad
No time to think we are going mad
To run at night, to run at day
“Hey, don't stop me, I have nothing to say”.

Hurry to go
We're in hurry to go

The noise of the traffic I cannot explain
Myriad of clacsons play again and again
Hurry to go, they're in hurry to go
No time to take breath,
there is something to do

Husband to wife: “I've no time today”
No time for love, is the price to pay
Hurry to go, he's in hurry to go
No time to take breath,
there is something to do

To run at night, to run at day
Woe! If you stop you can lose your way
To run at day, to run at night
Woe! You don't care that it holds you tight
We don't perceive how is going bad
No time to think we are going mad
To run at night, to run at day
“Hey, don't stop me, I have nothing to say”.

Hurry to go
We're in hurry to go
