Description: Written in 1984 and preformed only during live performances, until finally recorded until 1998 on 4-track cassette, this song was a musical tribute to Randy Rhoads and a short 'musical answer' to his song 'Dee.' Played on a 1975 Hohner 400 N Acoustic and mic'd with a vintage Versadyne PE-57 microphone. A copy of this song on CD was presented to Rhoad's mother in March, 2002.

I rather burn alive before I let you down
Open your eyes, into this world that we have created
I'll find a way to make it there
I'll find a way to show you that I'll open up your eyes

I am not a martyr, I'm just a boy who's seen the worst of both worlds
I can't see anything now
I'm not throwing in the towel
I wasn't through
It wasn't over, I promise you
It's still not over
I promise you

I'll never let you down
As long as I still breathe
I swear to god my word is good just have some faith in me
And in this moment we are untouchable at best
I wear this proudly and tied around my neck

I rather burn alive before I let you down
Open your eyes, into this world that we have created
I'll find a way to make it there
I'll find a way to show you that I'll open up your eyes

Resonate the beating in my chest
I've been hoping I've been praying to
Give their mouths a rest
Come on just say it when i'm out of site, I'm out of your mind
I've been trying and I've been pleading for the reassurance
I meant it when I swore

I'll never let you down
As long as I still breathe
I swear to god my word is good just have some faith in me
And in this moment we are untouchable at best
I wear this proudly and tied around my neck

I won't break
I can't wait

I've been up so many nights now
I can't tell the darkness from the light
I won't break
The promise that we made
I can't wait
I've been awake for days
Open up your amber eyes, I'm on my way
I'm coming home tonight
I can't wait
I've been awake for days
I won't break
The promise that I made to you

I rather burn alive before I let you down
Open your eyes, into this world that we have created
I'll find a way to make it there
I'll find a way to show you that I'll open up your eyes

Weber Blue Dog Ceramic Vs Scumback Scuminico

Clint Culwell wrote this little romp a couple of years ago that we recorded in rehearsal a while back.  This is about taking a trip to Mexico of days gone by, now a dangerous prospect.  Clint runs through the lyrics pretty fast in places so here they are to follow along. Hang around for the sweet little instrumental end:) Check out @clint-culwell for more cool songs.
Well I left from Texas about an hour ago
I waited at the station, but you never did show
I'd have waited a little longer, but for a month I been ready to go.
I got fifteen dollars and an eight-track player
My friend just gave me a bottle of strawberry wine
I'm takin' a little blanket because I've been told those Guadalupes can turn off cold.
Down in Mexico we're going to be alright,
Down in Mexico we're going to leave it all behind,
Yea, if you hustle up you can catch up with me,
I'll be down in Mexico.
Down in Mexico they've got a beach with a band
We can drink Mojitos and dance in the sand.
Down in Mexico it's going to be alright.
Flying down the back of this broken down old road,
I can hear my old pickup wheels starting to whine,
Caliche dust floats like a halo, coats my teeth and blows in my eyes.
Down in Mexico we're going to be alright,
Down in Mexico we're going to leave it all behind,
Down in Mexico it's going to be alright.
I got fifteen dollars and an eight-track player
I got a big ol' bottle of strawberry wine,
I'm takin' a little blanket 'cause them Guadalupes can turn off cold.

Down In Mexico(Clint Culwell: vocal, nylon guitar; David: guitar, bass)

Based in SoCal, I've been in and out of bands since the 1980's.  When not working in sessions, i record covers just for fun. Hope you enjoy... Robertvonherndon@gmail.com
