Girl Town
By David Snyder

V1
Well I got into town down on music row
Took a look around see which way the streets go
Saw a cute little honey in a Nashville bungalow
Dang them cut off jeans are tight
The way things wiggle it just ain’t right
Burning my eyes gonna lose my sight
And I just can’t wait 'til Saturday night

CH:
Take a Look around
And call it what it is
It’s girl town, girl town
Hot little honies is driving me crazy
Get down, get down girl town!
Yeah!

V2
This is the place where the women rule 
If you don’t know that you were born a fool
See ‘em up on stage bout every night
Making me sweat cause they play so tight
Redheads, blondes and brunettes too
I hope all three are good with you
Set the place on fire is what they’ll do

CH:

Take a Look around
And call it what it is
It’s girl town, girl town
Hot little honies is driving me crazy
Get down, get down girl town!
Yeah!

Inst:
[Voice over inst.: Lord Help me
I love those women
And I just can’t help it]

CH:

Take a Look around
And call it what it is
It’s girl town, girl town
Hot little honies is driving me crazy
Get down, get down girl town!
Yeah!
Get down girl town

Girl Town

She Takes Me Away

By David Snyder

V1

Everybody knows
That the world has gone insane
And everybody needs
A place to come in from the rain

CH:

And she takes me away
From everything the world
Tried to do to me today

V2.

And everybody says
That our dreams are shifting sand
But I cross the burning bridge into a another world
with her
Just holding to her hand

CH

Cause she comes to save
All those parts of me
That I tried to throw away

Bridge:

And I don’t need 
someone famous
to recognize me
that’s foolishness
All I need to know is that
She will always be beside me
that’s just common sense

V 3

Cause everybody wants 
to find that inner flame
I’m so glad I did
And I even know her name

CH:

Cause she comes to save
All those parts of me
That I tried to throw away

And Ooh,
My joy is here to stay
Ooh, my joy is here to stay

A Thousand Magic Years

By David Snyder

V1

With the eyes I have to see
And the ears I have to hear
One moment by her side
Makes every worry disappear
Oh Lord don’t take me Home
I think I like it here
Every evening in her arms
Is like a thousand magic years

V2

I’m sure it’s nice in heaven
And you have some fun up there
And you’ve got lots and lots of angels
But I have one right here
So Jesus let me stay 
Give someone else my chair
Every moonlight walk with this girl
Is like a thousand magic years

CH:

And ooh, the Choir is singing
Kingdom Come, Kingdom Come
And Ooh, I am walking  in the sun
With my only one
With my only one

V3

With the eyes I have to see
And the ears I have to hear
One moment in her arms
Is like a thousand magic years
Is like a thousand magic years
(repeat fade)

Let the Spirit Drive
By David Snyder


Lord have mercy
I feel so good today
Goodness gracious I got
Nothing in my way
Holy Moses
I got a lot of things to say, oh yeah
Feel so happy
Got the Holy Ghost inside
Great Balls of Fire
I got nothing to hide
I say Good God Almighty
Feel like I sailed through Judgment Day, oh yeah

CH:
And I’m rolling with the punches
Just gonna let it slide
Won’t be taken down
By arrogance or pride
Walking down the street
With my head held high
King in a Kingdom
Every day that I’m alive
I'm walking with the angels now
Gonna let the Spirit drive
Let the Spirit drive

V2
You can tell Aretha
That I’m on my way
Tell Reverend Green 
I’m showing up to play
You can tell all the children now
Gonna have a blessed day, oh yeah that’s right

CH:
And I’m rolling with the punches
Gonna let it slide
Won’t be taken down
By arrogance or pride
Walking down the street
With my head held high
King in a Kingdom
Every day that I’m alive
I'm walking with the angels now
Gonna let the Spirit drive
Let the Spirit drive

Inst. [Key Change]

Ch      
King in a Kingdom
Every day that I’m alive
I walking with the angels now
Gonna  Let the Spirit drive
Like a Maserati
Like a Cadillac
Once you got the Spirit 
Nothing can hold you back
Good God Almighty
Every day that I’m alive
Let the Spirit drive
Let the Spirit drive
Every day that I’m alive
Let the Spirit Drive

Let The Spirit Drive

Here is a tune written with my electronica songwriting buddy and longtime friend Jon Healey who has a day job as a columnist with the LA Times.

It is from an album of this genre we will put out in the spring titled Heaven Knows. Have fun. Lyrics follow.

Shaky Ground
By David Snyder and Jon Healey

Verse

Who can love you
More than you do
Who can?
I ask who?
I thought you knew

Chorus
I thought you knew
I thought you knew
This game is through

Verse
Breaking the turtle’s shell
Walking on shaky ground
Crawling the ocean floor
Making my way up town


Chorus:
Shaking me up
Shaking me down
Shaking me up
Shaking me down
Shaking me down
In this shanty town
In this shanty town
Shaky ground

Verse

Over the wall
Into the sand
Together we fall
Hand in hand
Over the wall
Man to man
Together we fall
Hand in hand
Promises made
No heaven up here
Yes we can
Nothing to fear

Chorus

Fifty shades
Fifty shades of grey
No sign of night
No sign of day
No sign of night
No sign of day
No sign of day
