Do It

This song features Dave Cooper on vocals and rhythm guitar.  This is a variation on a song I wrote a little while back and placed on YouTube.  I play mandolin and fiddle on this version.  Dave Cooper added new music and melody for the original lyrics.

Here is a link to the original version of this song:

Do Right, Do Wrong

Verse 1:
Way back in the 1500’s
In Stratford upon Avon
The Merchant of Venice 
Shylock is good and a menace

Chorus 1:
To do a great right 
Do a little wrong
That is what
Shakespeare said

Verse 2:
What does it mean
To the play’s scene
Why must one do wrong to do right?
That is the situation Portia had to fight
How can this possibly be
Why would he make this plea

Verse 3:
When Bassanio urges Portia to break the law in order to thwart Shylock

Final Double Chorus:
Sometimes it is necessary
To do a little wrong
To create a situation for a great right

My Marie

Can I Still Love?
Music and Lyrics by Mike Krath

I see a shadow,
on the wall,
is it her?
I don’t know,

I hear a hand scrape,
across my door,
is she back?
I can’t guess. 

On and on,
life goes on,
I’ve gotten old,
and the beat of my heart is weak,
can I still love?

I smell a face 
from distant past,
is she here?
Not a hint. 

I feel her pains, 
that once were real,
by me?
I don’t know. 

On and on,
life goes on,
I’ve gotten old,
and the beat of my heart is weak,
can I still love?

Can I Still Love?

Look at this space
A void of no consequence
A measure of indifference
A hollow existence
Flood light into this space
Bright light
Fill this space with sound
Sweet sound

DUNKING YOUR DIGESTIVE IN YER TEA 2.m4a

An intimate frontier.  A melody lost on waking.  A memory from childhood.  A hope for forgiveness.  A season ended.  A photograph of a moment you don’t remember.  A treasured object found and lost.  A thought interrupted.  A mirror in an empty room.  The dust of an evening.  An incomplete equation.  A discussion with possibility.  A missing adversary.  My impression from our last meeting.
