Tony's Lyrics

Original Collabs with Riff Beach (2014 thru 2024)

Written by Delaney and Bonnie Bramlett
Performed by Josh McAlexander
Picture of my wife Laura and me sailing (1993)

Never Ending Song of Love

This song was written by Chuck Berry while in prison and was recorded
in 1964.  This " poor boy" traveled across dozen states by bus, train and
plane to get to his promise land (California).  It was also recorded by
Elvis Presley .  Remember, Paul Revere and the Raiders, Freddy Weller,
had a hit with it also.  Louisiana's own Johnny Allen also had a hit with
it here in cajun land.  Having a little fun with this one.

WHEN WE'RE GROWIN' UP
WE ALL NEED SOMETHIN'
TO KEEP US ON THE RIGHT TRACK
HIS SOMETHIN' WAS THE CHURCH NEXT DOOR

ONLY A HUNDRED YARDS AWAY
IT WAS THE FIRST THING THAT HE SAW
WHEN HE WOKE UP IN THE MORNIN'
IT WAS ON HIS MIND EVERY DAY

(CHORUS)
EVERYONE NEEDS A SYMBOL
OF RIGHT AND WRONG
TO KEEP THEM HUMBLE
EVERYONE NEEDS A SYMBOL
OF RIGHT AND WRONG
TO KEEP THEM OUT OF TROUBLE
HIS SYMBOL WAS THAT CHURCH

EVERY SUNDAY MORNIN'
AS HE WALKED TO CHURCH
HE COULD HEAR THEM SINGIN'
PRAISES TO THE LORD

DURING HIS TIME IN THE ARMY
HE COULD FEEL HIS MAMA PRAYIN'
IN THAT CHURCH NEXT DOOR
EVERY SUNDAY MORNIN'

(REPEAT CHORUS)

(GUITAR SOLO OPTIONAL)

HE WAS BAPTIZED IN THAT CHURCH
MANY YEARS AGO AND IT'S IS STILL
HIS SYMBOL OF RIGHT AND WRONG

(REPEAT CHORUS OPTIONAL)

I'm Coming home

I'm Coming Home (Original)

This original song finds a woman that is soul searching and feeling deeply in need of something to reignite her inner self. Anywhere would be a step up from the mundane path she has settled for. She contemplates the changes that only she can make happen, the places and actions that must carry her upward and ahead to fulfillment.

Road To Anywhere by Nat Daniels & Craig Durgy
“Hey don’t you know I was thinking of you”,  she keeps sayin’
But somehow the time just never seemed right either way
She talks to herself, as she plays with the keys in her pocket
The cobblestones glow in reflection of streetlights and rain

The more we change the more we seem to stay the same
It’s time to grow, It’s time to go, and fly away
She ain't sure where she’s going….her heart knows there’s somehow a plan

There’s a hole in her soul 
Thats’ been troubled so long
And a call to somewhere left unknown
And putting it off due to family ties, plans grew old
Hit the road to anywhere, however long, she doesn’t care
To escape was the plan all along
When she finds him, her heart will just drop, and finally be home

She walks through the doors of a tavern called “Admiral’s Daughter”
And sits in her corner seat looking at folks come and go
She keeps the seat next to her open and watches the doorway
And waits for the ghost of a sailor she knew long ago

But change will never come if she remains the same..
Hit the road to anywhere, however long, she doesn’t care
To escape was the plan all along
And when she finds him, her heart will just drop, and finally be home

Road To Anywhere

I wrote this song about a year ago and was inspired to write the music after my uncle passed away who was a big part of the 1960s underground and psychedelic music scene in london ,the hippies of that time would frequent a place called the ufo club where they would drop acid and watch such acts as the early syd barrett era pink floyd and many other upcoming music stars of that time.
This song is a bit introspective as well as all things must pass like the music it was an end of an era [jim 2023]

Lyrics:
Off the top ———-is where it’s at unwrap this —————-gift RAP hitting the streets—-it’s ——pure crack Stone cold —-this trap ——TRACK! Pool of knowledge ——-untapped going —-in —-hard——we do that  Better —-tighten up —-them bootstraps  ———SAY-——-“what the hell ——did Lou snap!!!” swag baby —-The recap  no snags—nah—we stop that!!!
Break the game down--it's a new map Flow so rich--- better check that NASDAQ Eyes on the prize---go the full lap concrete jungle---stuck in the trap
[Verse] From the alleys to the skyline---watch us elevate Living large in the boroughs where we demonstrate Every word a heavy weight--- every rhyme we detonate New York state of mind---watch the Empire State
We on a mission---ain't no intermission, snap back Murals on the walls--- street art on the subway track Ambition in the air, we the kings--- claim the throne Spittin' bars like bullets--- in this zone--- we at home
Icons of the asphalt--- legends in the flesh Droppin' beats so heavy--it’s poundin' in your chest From the 5 boroughs--anthems——- on full blast Queens to the Bronx-- Brooklyn —-movin' fast Elevate the hustle---the spirit never cracks Struggle in the verses —-resilience on the—— tracks

GREATEST HITS

I’m blowin’ notes streetside in a horn section   
Blown garbage and coppered boots all gone tangling. 
You’re Bixby’s Bridge above Kerouac’s canyon.  
Way above the ruts in your trending fashion      

You’ve been playin’ me your greatest hits.    
But I need from you something ordinary (Like)           
Falling vacant down a slip               
What capture’s me is the fragmentary - humanity

You’re all coiff n pressed jeans uber-reaching
Gripping on to a scene and about it beseeching
You’re jetting over Miller’s Big Sur resident shack
History is nothing but a scratch on your back

You’ve been playin’ me your greatest hits. . .  
But I need from you something ordinary (Like)           
A eureka moment guilt trip               
What capture’s me is the fragmentary – humanity

What was I just a birthright the right side of the tracks
But egalitarian ideas caught you in a trap
Trying to show a social conscience don’t come naturally
Such a handbrake on life’s beckoning verdant tapestry

You’ve been playin’ me your greatest hits. . .  
You’ve been playin’ me your greatest hits. . .

Full Throttle Ahead

Full Throttle Ahead ( Fox and Brennan )

Cast of Characters:
xian3-- @xian3 – Christian -- vocals and lyrics
Holger Engel—bass, seed idea
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- electric piano, synth
mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark-- electric piano
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- mix, and production
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)-- @josh-clary-1 – guitar and four-string fretless bass
 
This song began with Christian's friend Holger Engel coming up with a melodic bass line and sharing it with him to use as a seed stem for a project. Having collaborated successfully with him before, Christian thought of Josh and decided to pass it along to him to see what he could build with it. Josh was excited to work on another of Holger's creations. His bass line was in a high octave on the instrument, so Josh added a similar, complimentary bass line on the low octave to give it some heft. He invited Ken onto the project, and after doing their little rhythm section give and take, Ken laid down some powerful, yet tasteful drums. Mark was brought in next, and added some very fitting, wonderfully melodic electric piano, which he added in the choruses. Josh also asked JJ to add some electric piano to the verses and synth to the whole thing, which he did in a very mind-bending syncopated way. Josh then added some guitar to the high end to thicken things up a bit.
  We then sent the finished product back to Christian to add his thoughtful, inspired lyrics and signature vocals to his song. This is what Christian had to say about how the lyrics came about. 
  "[Being an avid reader], I came along the sentence, 'We write and make art to show our wounds to the world,' reading an interview with Paul Auster (1947-2024). He died earlier this year, yet his novels are legendary. There was talk about creativity, manifoldness and what the personality consists of. 
  "I can’t remember where that interview was and basically I wrote the lyrics around this sentence attributed to him. 
  "I quote another writer, Goethe (1749-1832), with a famous quotation from "Faust,“ 'Two souls, Alas, housed in my breast...' That points in the right thematic direction in my opinion.
For sure the lyrics also contain other layers of meanings, much more personal…
I am also happy about the title of the song 'We Are Many'. I think Tez came up with it. I was unsure for very long, what’s the name of that song… :)"
  After we had it in the bag, we asked mix-master Tez to produce and mix it, so what you hear is also his creative vision for the project. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.
 
Original "We Are Many" lyrics by Xian:

1
To me it seems very obviously
That my I is not a unity
Rather a bunch of personalities
I got a problem with multiplicities

ref
We write and make „art“ 
To show our wounds to the world
We write and make „art“ …

2
I am no self-contained identity
Cut off by other possibilities
No border guards set up at the boundary
Enforce the claim to exclusivity

ref
We write and make „art“ 
To show our wounds to the world
We write and make „art“…
„I“ writes and makes „art“
To heal the wounds of the heart

3
„Two souls, alas, housed in my breast…“
We hope, that if we do confess
To get rid of this fallacy
And collect the splits of personality

ref
We write and make „art“ 
To show our wounds to the world
I write and make „art“
To heal the wounds of my heart

out
There is
A consolation in round things
There is
A consolation in round things 
A consolation in round things
Oh, ohh,
„I“, „I“,
Oh…

Lyrics from Tony’s Lyrics - Tony Harris
Original Music, Vocals, and Production by Riff Beach
Wouldn’t it be Nice?
If we could take a Train
….Take a Train Back in Time?
Listen to the Wheels Rumblin’
Sounds that soothe your Mind
Wouldn’t it be Nice?
To hear the Whistle Blowin’
Feel The Train Shakin’
As we go Back in Time
Wouldn’t it be Fine?
If Old Friends
Friends no longer here
Could ride along with us
For even a short time?
Wouldn’t It Be Nice?
If Everyone was Swayin’
To the Sound of Music
The Rhythym of The Rails
Wouldn’t It Be Nice?
To take a break
From this Crazy World
The Crazy World
We Live in
Wouldn’t it be Nice?
Wouldn’t it be Nice?
To take a Train Back…..
Way Back in Time
Listen to the Wheels Rumblin’
We’re headed On The Down The Line
Wouldn't it be Nice?
If we could take a Train Back in Time?
(Outro)

DADDY STOPPED FARMING	
WHEN I WAS SEVEN YEARS OLD	
CAN'T MAKE NO MONEY	
HOEIN' THEM ROWS	
	
STARTED BUILDING HOUSES	
IN A NEAR BY TOWN	
MAMA WAS SO THANKFUL	
FOR THE JOB HE'D FOUND	
	
I WAS BORN IN THE COUNTRY	
NINE MILES FROM TOWN	
DIRT ROADS AND PINE TREES	
SCATTERED ALL AROUND	
	
NO BIG HOUSE OR FANCY CAR	
DOWN ON OUR LUCK	
ALL MY DADDY HAD TO DRIVE	
WAS HIS OLD PICK-UP TRUCK	
	
HAD SOME CARPENTER SKILLS	
WAS GOOD AT DRIVIN' NAILS	
THE NEAR BY TOWN WAS GROWIN'	
NEW HOUSIN' WAS BOOMIN'	
	
I STILL LIVE IN THE COUNTRY	
NINE MILES FROM TOWN	
DIRT ROADS ARE PAVED NOW	
THE PINES ARE STILL AROUND	
	
WOKE UP EVERY MORNIN'	
WITH SONGS FROM HIS HEART	
TO THE SOUND OF DADDY PLAYIN'	
ON HIS OLD WORN HARP	
	
PLAYED THEM LONESOME TRAIN SONGS	
WAS HOW HE STARTED HIS DAY	
MADE YOU WANT TO SING ALONG	
THEN HE WAS ON HIS WAY	
	
I WAS BORN IN THE COUNTRY	
NINE MILES FROM TOWN	
DIRT ROADS ARE PAVED NOW	
THE TREES ARE STILL AROUND	
	
THE DIRT ROADS ARE PAVED NOW	
THE TREES ARE STILL AROUND

Born In The Country - Collaboration by Tony and Mike Fox

I'm here to top it off
Momentum dropping off
Some nerve to write me off
But my drive will define it
You try to shut me down
Keep buried in the ground 
But my mind is confineless

Pains a motivation
Away from comforting touch
Some days will always be tough
There's way to get out this rut
To get out this rut

I want and I need
I want it all
Yeah, I need it all
I want and I need
I want it all
Yeah, I need it all

*burp*

Make me the underdog
Bet on the higher one
No even close to done
Cause' the fire's still rising
I'm coming from behind
Get you by surprise
No sense in wasting time
Cause the fires still rising



Tough Love

HE PLAYED THE BIG STADIUMS	
EVEN PLAYED THE OPRY	
HAD A WHOLE LOT A FANS	
A BIG MAN WHEN TALKING COUNTRY	
	
HE TRAVELED A MILLION MILES OR TWO	
ON HIS BIG SILVER EAGLE BUS	
HAD A FIVE MEMBER COUNTRY BAND	
THAT HE COULD ALWAYS TRUST	
	
THEY WERE PLAYNG THE RIGHT CHORDS	
SINGING THE RIGHT SONG'S AT THE RIGHT TIME	
RECEIVING GOLD RECORDS AND AWARDS	
THEM BOY'S WERE WORKING OVERTIME	

CHORUS	
THE SILVER EAGLE'S NOT ROLLING ANYMORE	
HE'S PLAYING HIS FLAT TOP WHENEVER HE CAN	
THE SILVER EAGLE'S NOT ROLLING ANYMORE	
HE'S JUST A ONE MAN BAND	
HE'S JUST A ONE MAN BAND (2ND CHORUS ONLY)	
	
	
A BAD MANAGER TOOK HIS MONEY	
LEFT HIM HIGH AND DRY	
HE SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT COMING	
THE MUSIC IN HIM WLL NEVER DIE	
	
AS HE DRIVES HIS OLD CADILLAC	
THOSE DAYS ARE GONE WITH THE WIND	
HE WISHES HE COULD GO BACK	
AND RIDE THAT EAGLE AGAIN	
	
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN	
NO MORE SCREAMING FANS	
AS THE WORLD GOES ROUND	
HE'S PUT IT ALL IN GOD'S HANDS	
	
(REPEAT CHORUS)	
	
PLEASE DON'T CRY FOR HIM	
HE PLAYED HIS MUSIC	
AND LIVED HIS DREAMS

  NO TEARS IN HANK'S BEER				
				
HANK WAS A BIT COCKY				
UNEASY AT THE SAME TIME				
SOMETIMES A BIT SHAKY				
BUT IT WAS HIS YEAR TO SHINE				
				
EIGHTEEN MONTHS ON THE OPRY				
GAVE HIM DRAWING POWER				
HIS SONGS WERE PURE POETRY				
HE WAS THE MAN OF THE HOUR
				
CHORUS				
THE YEAR WAS FIFTY ONE				
HIS BIGGEST YEAR				
BIG CROWDS STOOD IN LINE				
NO TEARS IN HANK'S BEER				
YEA, NO TEARS IN HANK'S BEER				
				
POP STARS WERE COVERING HIS HITS				
HE PLAYED SOME TV SHOWS				
HE SIGNED A MOVIE CONTRACT				
BROKE IT BY BEING A NO SHOW				
				
THE MILES HE TRAVELED 				
INCREASED HIS BACK PAIN				
BUT HE MADE THE BIG TIME				
CAUSE COUNTRY MUSIC WAS IN HIS VEINS				
				
(REPEAT CHORUS)				
				
WHY DID HE HAVE TO DIE SO YOUNG				
IN THE BACK OF THAT OLD CADLLAIC

THE UNFORTUNATE SON
                             
BEEN READING JOHN'S NEW BOOK				
SAW IT ON THE BOOK STORE SHELF				
DECIDED TO GIVE IT A LOOK				
JUST A FEW OF THEM WERE LEFT				
BEING A CCR FAN				
WELL I GAVE IT A READ				
I LOVED THAT SIXTIES BAND				
GLAD THAT JOHN TOOK THE LEAD				
THE FORTUNATE SON				
BECAME THE UNFORTUNATE ONE				
LEFT OUT IN THE COLD				
FOR A FEW PIECES OF GOLD				
OH THE FORTUNATE SON				
BECAME THE UNFORTUNATE ONE				
OH ,YEA, THE UNFORTUNATE ONE				
AFTER THE BAND BROKE UP				
HE DIDN'T PERFORM FOR AWHILE				
MET THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE				
CONVINCED HIM TO NOT GIVE UP				
THEN BEFORE TOO LONG				
HE WAS BACK ON TOP AGAIN				
WITH A STRING OF HITS				
FOREVER A BANSMAN				
THE FORTUNATE SON				
BECAME THE UNFORTUNATE ONE				
LEFT OUT IN THE COLD				
FOR A FEW PIECES OF GOLD				
AWESOME GUITARIST				
HE PRACTICED EVERY DAY				
ONE OF THE BEST				
HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD				
AND NOW HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD				
I'M SO GLAD HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD				
THE FORTUNATE SON				
BECAME THE UNFORTUNATE ONE				
BUT NOW HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD				
AND NOW HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD				
I'M SO GLAD THAT HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD

WE KNOW MUSCLE SHOALS
THEY HAD THE SWAMPERS
THEY HAD MUSIC IN THEIR SOULS
MAN, THEY WERE KEEPERS

THEY CAME FROM FAR AND NEAR
LOOKING FOR THAT SWEET SOUND
TO UNDERSTAND YOU HAD TO LIVE HERE
THEY WERE BAMA BOUND
CAUSE THEY WERE BAMA BOUND

Chorus
TENNESSEE RIVER AND MUSIC
THEY GO HAND AND HAND
TENNESSEE RIVER AND MUSIC
THAT MUSCLE SHOALS SOUND
TENNESSEE RIVER AND MUSIC
THAT MUDDY WATER BRINGS OUT THE BEST
YEA, IT BRINGS OUT THE BEST

THEY EVEN CAME FROM FAR AWAY
TO GRAB THAT SOUND
MAN, THEY SURE HAD SOME FUN
LAYING THEM TRACKS DOWN

IT AIN'T NASHVILLE, HOSS... NEW YORK OR LA. 
SOMETHING ABOUT THAT MUD 
ROLLING DOWN THAT RIVER EVERYDAY
MUSIC WAS THEIR ANCHOR

Lyrics by Tony Harris
Vocals, Music, Production & Mix by Chuck Aaron

AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL
WAS A SMALL COUNTRY STORE
BUYIN' A COKE AND MOON PIE
IT WAS QUITE A THRILL

WHERE THE OLD MEN GATHERED
TO PLAY DOMINO'S AND CHECKERS
YOUNG BOYS GATHERED TO PLAY BALL
IN THE PASTURE OUT BACK

THE KID'S LOVED CATCHIN' FIRE FLIES
AND PUTTIN' THEM IN A JAR
WATCHIN' THEM LIGHT UP
UNDER THE STARY SKIES

(CHORUS)
GOIN' BACK IN TIME
WITH COUNTRY ON MY MIND
GOIN' BACK IN TIME
TO A SIMPLER TIME
YEA, GOIN' BACK IN TIME
TO A SIMPLER TIME

SETTIN' OUT FISH HOOKS
ON A SMALL CREEK BANK
SITTIN' AROUND A CAMP FIRE
TELLIN' STORIES AND JOKES

NO CITY STREETS OR BOULEVARDS
PLAYED SOME BASKETBALL
WITH  HOME MADE GOALS
IN OUR BACK YARDS

NO I-PAD OR I-PHONE
JUST SOME GOOD TIMES
AND GOOD MEMORIES
OF A WONDERFUL HOME

(REPEAT CHORUS 1 or 2 times)

Back In Time - Lyrics by Tony Harris - Featuring Chuck Aaron - Original

Remembering old friends and places with such great images.  This song
was written by Lyle Lovett and Robert Earl Keen Jr,. while they attended
Texas A&M in the late 70's. It was released by Lyle in 1986.  What an American singer and songwriter.  A gem of a song

This Old Porch   (  cover - Lyle Lovett)

Lyrics by Tony Harris
Vocals, Music & Mix by Glen Granthem
The lyrics below inspired Glen to produce this track.

JOHNNY WASEN'T A PREACHER MAN	
OR THE LEADER OF A WORSHIP BAND	
HE WASEN'T A BIG TIME MINISTER	
OR EVEN A SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER	
	
HE NEVER EVER PRAYED OUT LOUD	
OR TRIED TO STAND OUT IN A CROWD	
HE WAS NO STRANGER TO LUST OR SIN	
NEVER AFRAID TO SAY AMEN	
	
(CHORUS)	
JOHNNY LOVED JESUS, MUSIC AND FAMILY  	
HE WAS ABSOLUTELY HIS OWN WORST ENEMY	
HE LOVED SINGIN' PRAISES TO HIS LORD	
PRAYED THAT HEAVEN WOULD BE HIS REWARD	
	
	
HE DIDN'T LIVE IN A MANSION	
OR NEED LOTS OF  ATTENTION	
HE DIDN'T DRIVE A FANCY CAR	
OR OWN ANY RARE GUITARS	
	
HE LOVED HIS OLD FLAT TOP	
AND HE PLAYED IT NONSTOP	
HE WAS A TRUE DISCIPLE	
OF THAT OLD TIME COUNTRY GOSPEL	
	
(REPEAT CHORUS)	
	
NOW HE'S SINGIN' WITH THE ANGEL'S	
AND WALKIN' THE STREETS OF GOLD	
	
(GUITAR SOLO)	
	
(REPEAT CHORUS )

REAL COVENANT

Lyrics by Tony Harris (listed below)
Vocal/Guitar by Phillip Clarkson
Full Band Version Master 12/31/20 by Daniele Turani 
(Use Headphones for best sound)

STOPPING AT OUR LITTLE COUNTRY STORE						
EVERY HEAD TURNED AS SHE WALKED THROUGH THE FRONT DOOR						
SAYING, HOW DO I GET BACK TO I-65						
SHE HAD TO BE THE PRETTEST GIRL ALIVE						
						
THE STORE OWNER TRIED TO GIVE DIRECTIONS						
AS HE LOOKED AT HER BEAUTIFUL COMPLECTION						
HE FINALLY MANAGED TO SAY COUNTY 25						
WILL TAKE YOU BACK TO I-65						
						
AS SHE WALKED OUT THE FRONT DOOR						
JOHNNY SAW HER AND SAID "OH MY LORD"						
AS HIS HEART SHIFTED INTO OVERLOAD"…HE SAID						
SHE COULD MAKE A FREIGHT TRAIN TAKE A DIRT ROAD						
						
(CHORUS)						
SHE COULD MAKE A FREIGHT TRAIN TAKE A DIRT ROAD						
WITH THE PRETTEST EYES I'VE EVER SEEN						
LOOKIN' LIKE A MODEL IN A MAGAZINE						
YEA, SHE COULD MAKE A FREIGHT TRAIN TAKE A DIRT ROAD						
						
JOHNNY RUSHED OUT TO HIS TRUCK						
AND TRIED TO CATCH HER, BUT NO LUCK						
HE CHECKED EVERY INCH OF COUNTY 25						
ALL THE WAY BACK TO I-65						
						
HE STILL TALKES ABOUT THAT DAY						
AND WANDERS WHY HE LET HER GET AWAY						
DON'T BE AFRAID TO ASK A PRETTY GIRL OUT						
JOHNNY KNOWS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT						
						
(REPEAT CHORUS)
