This is a project by Boomer online collaborations.  The original song is thought to have been written in 1700s and was made popular by the Dubliners, The Pogues and of course Thin Lizzy and now maybe even Boomer.

lyrics: Isaac Schapira

G-D FEARING WIFE
If I had money to spend
I could make some new friends
I could find friends who think just like me
We would drink every night
And we never would fight
We'd be happy like people should be

And If I could just go back home
To the folks that I’ve known
They’d tell me how proud they all are
If I could find what I lack
If I could only go back
I'd say sorry I rambled so far

If a G-d fearing wife
Would come into my life
We would move where the air is still clean
We would live off the land
For the rest of our span
It would be like some beautiful dream

If I could make a fresh start
Off in some other part
Of the country in which I was raised
I would put down new roots
And stand tall in my boots
And be happy the rest of my days

If I could be what I'm not
I'd rejoice in my lot 
I'd give thanks every way I know how
I'd sing songs of delight
If I could just get it right
Instead of being the way I am now

If I hadn't been so proud 
Things might be different
I could find someone 
Who could help me in this jam
Well, I wrote my letter 
and I guess I have to mail it
Instead of trying to be different than I am

Well, I'd give all that I’ve got
If I could take one more shot
For a chance to be happy at last

I would get my mind clear
And move on without fear
And walk out from the cage of the past

If a G-d fearing wife
Would come into my life
We would move where the air is still clean
We would live off the land
For the rest of our span
It would be like some beautiful dream

G-d Fearing Wife

This song was written by Rob Greaney and assembled with a group of friends.  
It's a sort of sad song about the distance between the living and the dead and a longing to be together but unlike most songs of this kind it's sung from the grave.  It's not meant to be morbid but it's certainly sad though the feel of the song is epic.  You'll have to hear it to understand. 

I'll Wait Right Here For You

A great friend brought this little baby for me a few years ago.  It's been used in a number of arrangements.  This is just a very short loop which I'm thinking of using in an upcoming recording.

My Arab Mando Theme

Ahlan Wasahlan means welcome.  This song is dedicated to all our brothers and sisters from Syria, Iraq and other strife torn lands looking for a place to call home.  May you find a peaceful place to raise your kids.
