everything that went down
everything that screwed up
the love we once found
nothing was enough

 

The times we've been through,
now Each step feels new... feels new
Under dark skies we hide,
thinking about how we lied how we lied
now walking with nothing to do
  walking not thinking of you
or times we've been through
thinkin bout things brand new
not walking under dark skies
not walking back imemories of our lives
not waking with no place to go
not walking just for show
Just walking 
Just walking 
Just walking 


(verse )Just waking with nothing to say, to say
seems the right time to walk anyway.
 so hard to walk from one's past the past
echoes of yesterday always last
 walking with nothing to do
  walking not thinking of you
or times we've been through
thinkin bout things brand new
not walking under dark skies
not walking back memories of our lives
not waking with no place to go
not walking just for show
Just walking 
Just walking 
Just walking 

 was everything out of our control, control
where outside Forces took their toll.
Each footstep tracing memory tears those tears
Walking away from all those fears

 I know I gonna be ok get on with life today forget about yesterdayI know I gonna find my wayJust walking 
Just walking 
Just walking 

 walking with nothing to do
  walking not thinking of you
or times we've been through
thinkin bout things brand new
not walking under dark skies
not walking back memories of our lives
not waking with no place to go
not walking just for show
Just walking 
Just walking 
Just walking 
Just walking awayJust walking 
Just walking 
Just walking

Just Walking Away by Songwriter Edwin H. Balder

"Ain’t Movin’ Slow" is a gritty, heartfelt country song about heartbreak in a small town, where memories of love and loss hang heavy. With a mix of catchy hooks, raw emotion, and vivid storytelling, this track paints the picture of a man who’s been knocked down but refuses to stay there. The nights are long, the roads are familiar, and the wind whispers the past—but there’s strength in every step forward. Perfect for fans of modern country with a blend of resilience

Ain’t Movin' Slow

The caterpillar spins its cocoon,
To rest in the warmth of the noon,
When time is right, it will break free,
And as a moth, it will be.

The dandelion blossoms bright,
A golden star in morning light,
And when its flower turns to white,
It dances in the breezes light.

Nature tells an Easter story,
Flowers bloom in perfect glory,
Birds are singing sweet and clear,
Springtime joy is here, is here.

The flowers are waking, waking from sleep,
They peep through the ground, their promise to keep,
They lift their bright heads, and greet the warm sun,
Their springtime awakening has begun.

The sunshine sends a message,
To flowers and to trees,
To birds and all creation,
In whispers on the breeze.

The caterpillar spins its cocoon,
To rest in the warmth of the noon,
When time is right, it will break free,
And as a moth, it will be.

The dandelion blossoms bright,
A golden star in morning light,
And when its flower turns to white,
It dances in the breezes light.

The bees have a market, busy and bright,
They work all day from morn till night,
Gathering nectar from each flower,
To store in their hive, hour by hour.

Night tells a story, of stars and moon,
Of dreams and rest, and a soft tune,
It whispers gently, to those who sleep,
A story of peace, in slumber deep.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are,
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.

The moon is shining, big and bright,
It fills the world with silver light,
It guides the night with gentle grace,
A glowing smile on its face.

Rain clouds gather, dark and gray,
Bringing showers, to wash the day,
The raindrops fall, so soft and light,
Cleansing earth, from day to night.

The weather changes, day by day,
With sun and rain, in its own way,
It brings us warmth, it brings us cold,
A story of seasons, ever told.

The rain is falling, pitter-patter,
On the roof, it makes a clatter,
It waters flowers, trees, and grass,
A gentle song, as time does pass.

The rain on the roof sings a lullaby,
A soothing sound, as night goes by,
It whispers softly, to those asleep,
A melody, gentle and deep.

The bread we eat has a story to tell,
From fields of grain, where it grew so well,
It's ground to flour, and baked with care,
A tale of life, we all can share.

Butter’s made from creamy milk,
Churned and worked till smooth as silk,
It spreads so fine on bread and toast,
A tale of taste, we love the most.

The wind is singing through the trees,
A song of whispers, in the breeze,
It dances round, both high and low,
A tune of nature, soft and slow.

The church bells ring, so clear and bright,
Calling us to morning light,
They chime a song of peace and grace,
Inviting all to this holy place.

God’s work is seen in earth and sky,
In blooming flowers and birds that fly,
In every creature, great and small,
His hand has crafted, one and all.

God’s love is like a shining light,
Guiding us through darkest night,
It’s warm and gentle, pure and true,
A constant love for me and you.

The apple grows on the tree so tall,
It starts as a bud, so tiny and small,
With sun and rain, it ripens to red,
A juicy treat, in the orchard bed.

The sun will rise, the moon will set,
The seasons change, and yet,
God’s laws are firm, and always true,
Guiding all that we pursue.

The butterfly dances in the light,
The moth flies through the night,
Both start as caterpillars small,
Transforming beauty, in their call.

The signals of time, tick and tock,
Marking moments, like a clock,
They guide our days, they guide our nights,
In steady rhythm, left and right.

Light and shadow, day and night,
One brings warmth, the other, respite,
They dance together, hand in hand,
A balanced pair, across the land.

The Caterpillar Spins its Cocoon Lullaby Riffs

The moon is shining, big and bright

My song, It's Time to Unite, is a powerful call to bridge divides and celebrate commonalities across cultures and communities. Set against a country backdrop, it weaves stories from honky-tonk bars in Nashville to rooftop gatherings in LA, emphasizing that despite our differences, we share universal experiences of joy, pain, and resilience. The song explores themes of unity, understanding, and hope, encouraging listeners to look beyond cultural and societal divides, as highlighted in the lines, "We fight culture wars and try to cast the blame, thinking we’re different but we bleed the same."

It's Time to Unite

Farm To Fame   by songwriter Edwin H. Balder

Every farm has a family, with stories to tell, In the heart of the country, where hopes often dwell. From fields of gold to skies so blue, A guitar’s strum can make dreams come true.

She bought her land , worked it with pride, Till a burning dream called from inside. Packed her bags, left the farm behind, Headed to the city, her dreams to find.
Dreamers on a journey, hearts full of fire, Chasing down the music, fueled by desire. From the fields to the stage, they’ll find their way, In the tale of Farm to Fame, ..and back again (and back again)
He worked the fields with his dad’s guiding hand, But the farm was lost to the bank’s demand. With a heavy heart and a song in his soul, He set out for the city, to make himself whole.
Dreamers on a journey, hearts full of fire, Chasing down the music, fueled by desire. From the fields to the stage, they’ll find their way, In the tale of Farm to Fame, ..and back again (and back again)
Love and loss, rejection and pain, Through the storms and sunshine, they’ll rise again. In the lights of the city, through the highs and lows, Their songs united, as their legend grows.
on the road two paths that collide, In a whirlwind of music, where dreams reside. From the heartland they came, to the stars they’ll aim, In the story of Farm to Fame...and back again (and back again)
Dreamers on a journey, hearts full of fire, Chasing down the music, fueled by desire. From the fields to the stage, they’ll find their way, In the tale of Farm to Fame, ..and back again (and back again)
So listen to the story, of love and hope so grand, Dreamers who dared to take a stand. From the farm to the fame and back again,sweet dreams they’ll claim, In the heartwarming tale of Farm to Fame...and back again
In the heartwarming tale of Farm to Fame...and back again ( and back again)

Farm To Fame   by songwriter Edwin H. Balder

Party At The Barnhouse

Feel inspired with country, reminiscing life to your 30's 

Already Won

A song I wrote about dealing with ones mind and ambitious spirit as you grow

Wildfire Heart

DJ Bubbles | Gracefully Unhinged Vibes

Welcome to the world of DJ Bubbles, where music knows no boundaries and every beat tells a story. From filthy DnB drops and pop-punk anthems to soulful R&B and even the occasional country ballad, Bubbles turns everything into a kaleidoscope of sound. If it’s got rhythm and a spark of life, she’s there to make it shine. ✨

Bubbles’ style? Think gracefully unhinged—a poppy, upbeat sparkle with a punch of purpose. Whether she’s mashing up a classic with a dirty bassline or throwing in a surprise soundbite (yes, she has moo’d on the mic), her mixes are designed to make you feel something, anything. Laugh, cry, or just groove—it’s all part of the experience.

Starting as a 3-year-old singing her way through a tough childhood, Bubbles found solace in music. Now, she’s a DJ who turns any set into a full-blown adventure. Her friends call her funny, off-the-wall, and endlessly kind, and she describes herself as a "lioness who’s just eaten"—fierce, but probably just wants cuddles.

Her favorite part of performing? Watching people connect. Chatting, laughing, and dancing together—it’s magic. Every beat she spins is an invitation to be unapologetically yourself.

And yes, she once tried to be an undercover ninja sheep in her childhood pasture. If that doesn’t tell you everything about her quirky charm, nothing will. 🐑💖

So, buckle up and hit play. DJ Bubbles is here to take you on a wild ride, one beat at a time.

Welcome to the Hot Cookie days! After my coffee house days I put  my performance life away to build a family.but every week I tried to put a song idea in note book..Once I got old and family set I came back to my music doing a few songs a year...then I got this terminal type feedback on my timeline so I grabbed up the best music folk I knew over the years...put a studio band together (Hot Cookie) to record 100 HIT songs from the notes I took every week for 50 years. They are not for us to perform but for you to.  We picked just 2 songs from every year's notebook that we felt were hits that could change folks' lives if they covered them...so here they are. Contact us if you need the rights..Be well Do Well and thank you for the years of wonder...e
THE BACK STORY:
I was just 19 Way back bout 1969
a couple of new friends of mine
Hippy Joni & John Prine
gave me some listening time
50 years later down the line
what was voiced then is now
so wonderfully defined
by voices my music was meant to find
I wonder back into that dive hotel room now and then
and meet with old friends... Everyone making amends ...Time just transcends
Playing and singing our dream songs....Hoping stardom comes along
So we can all run away
And play everyday
In a cloud of smoke
Where nobody’s broke
Maybe one more toke and I can stay
SO
Too old ..
So little in the tank
Not near the time to get in all I want to thank
Thought all my music might someday get me bank
Cause God gave me talent but the check he wrote was a bit blank
And as I got older and my dreams of glory sank
I made what's here for you to see
hoping  my sad obscurity gets outflanked
