Sonofa  Merica

This song is called "Sonofa  Merica".  it's about  the fairly common lament of the struggle of making a living and the government asking for more.   

Lyrics;
Ain't got much money
Don't hear anybody calling me rich
But the IRS called me
A son of America

Had my nose to the grindstone
For most of my life
Put the roof over my kids
And me and my wife
But I feel that I pursue happiness
At the point of a knife

I'm just man of few means
I have my wishes and dreams
Never did I see my coffers
filling up to the seams

Big Uncle sam
Sees the piggy bank on my shelf
And he gets pretty mad
If I keep too much for myself
Must think it's a pot of gold
It's just an old busted piggy bank and nothing else

But, I'm just man of few means
With limited dreams
Never saw my coffers
fill up to the seams

It's like I better pay Washington
Or they'll show up on my lawn
And walk right through my door
And take even more. And take even more. And take even more. And take even more.

I pay my fair share
I try to do the right thing
And my home is my castle
But hey I'm just pauper king
And I love being free
But if this keeps up I'll be free
of having anything !

Ain't got much money
Don't hear anybody calling me rich
But the IRS called me
A son of America

YOUR UNFAILING LOVE
IS AS BIG AS THE HEAVENS
YOUR FAITHFULLNESS
REACHES BEYOND THE CLOUDS

YOUR RIGHTENOUSNESS
IS LIKE A MIGHTY MOUNTAIN
YOUR MERCIFUL JUSTICE
IS AS BIG AS THE OCEAN

(CHORUS)
UNDER YOUR WINGS
WE FIND SHELTER
UNDER YOUR WINGS
WE FIND LOVE
UNDER YOUR WINGS
WE CAN LIVE FOR EVER
UNDER YOUR WINGS
WE FIND LOVE

YOUR PRECIOUS LOVE
TAKES AWAY OUR FEARS
OUR REFUGE IN THE STORM
YOU TAKE AWAY OUR TEARS

YOU'RE THE FOUNTAIN OF LIFE
WE DRINK FROM YOUR RIVER
YOUR EVERLASTING LOVE
BRINGS US TOGETHER

(REPEAT CHORUS)

(GUITAR SOLO)

Under Your Wings - Original collab by Tony Harris & Glenny G's "One Man Band"

I thank all the people who listened to this truck.
Is the water enough in your life?
Please give children living in this same earth fresh water. 
Study and time to play do not have it so that a child cuts off time of most of the day for a water drawer.
 Water for the family and the child to live.
Please give children a dream.
I knew it and expressed the image that snuggled up to the feeling of children.
I may not get the imminent water easily at all! 
I felt it to be serious.

Borrowed Blade is country grit and gospel backbone—songs hammered on an anvil of hard times, small-town faith, and second chances. Fiddle cries, pedal steel sighs, and a low Telecaster growl carry stories of men and women who don’t run from the storm; they ride straight through it. These tracks lean on porch-light prayers, two-lane highways, court dates, and kitchen-table reconciliations. The title speaks to winning with what tried to wound you: you take the lie, break it in half, and use it for a handle. From barroom whispers to Sunday-morning vows, the record moves from hush to holler—brush snare shuffles, train beats, waltzes, and boot-stomp 4/4. This is not revenge; it’s redemption with calluses. Press play when you need courage you can hear and a map you can follow.

Sunrise


Thirteen days behind me...
thirteen days gone by...
Time just keeps on movin...
like clouds across the sky...
Life’s got its rhythm... 
seasons know their stride...
Every day’s a blessing...
every turn a ride...


I get by every day... 
leanin on faith and trust...
Knowin there’s a bigger plan...
the good Lord’s workin up...
Everything has a purpose...
everything’s in time...
And tomorrow brings another chance... 
to shine...


Sunrise on the hillside... 
new light into my soul...
Every mile I travel...
takes me closer to my goal...
Dreams keep on growin... 
like fields in July...
Every door that opens is another chance to fly...


I get by every day... 
leanin on faith and trust...
Knowin there’s a bigger plan... 
the good Lord’s workin up...
Everything has a purpose... 
everything’s in time...
And tomorrow brings another chance to shine...


Every sunset tells me... 
joy is on the way...
Every storm reminds me... 
blue skies never stray...
Hope keeps on singin...
brighter than the night...
Every step I’m takin leads me to the light..



I get by every day...
leanin on faith and trust...
Knowin there’s a bigger plan... 
the good Lord’s workin up...
Everything has a purpose...
everything’s in time...
And tomorrow brings another chance to shine...


Life keeps on movin... 
and I’ll keep ridin high...
With faith in my heart and the sun in the sky...


13 Days
