The idea for this song came from a benefit concert my band was putting on and a conversation I overheard from a friend who said he used to be a cowboy. The Songwriter in me took over from there

I used to be a cowboy hard as hell to tame
wilder than the stallion running across the plains
one eye on the horizon one foot inside the grave
but you gave me something to live for
Cowgirl You Changed The Game

Well you broke me in a good way, now you hold the reigns
forget what they tell you, yes a cowboy can be trained
one hand in your hand and a changing of the name
cause you gave me something to live for
Cowgirl You Changed The Game

Cowgirl You Changed The Game

The inspiration for this song came from my nephew's wedding. I've always wanted to write a waltz and this was my 1st attempt

A Smokey bar room an old wooden floor
two strangers together like never before
dancing in circles in each other's eyes
lost in a Moment their own paradise

round and round they go
heart to heart so close
their floating on air
and they just don't care 
if the music ever stops
But you could hear it The Moment it dropped
It was love, love, love sweet love

a restored old barn brand new wooden floors
two lovers together they share now much more

dancing in circles in each other's eyes
lost in a Moment their own paradise

round and round they go
heart to heart so close
their floating on air
and they just don't care 
if the music ever stops
But you could hear it The Moment it dropped
It was love, love, love sweet love

dancing in circles in each other's eyes
lost in a Moment their own paradise

round and round they go
heart to heart so close
their floating on air
and they just don't care 
if the music ever stops
But you could hear it The Moment it dropped
It was love, love, love sweet love

The Moment

This song came to me while my wife and I was doing bills and just wanting to walk away

The bills just keep piling higher 
there's no end to them in sight
sometimes I want to set this house on fire
to keep The Wolves away at night

Where do you go when there's nowhere
where do you run when the land is dry
what do you tell a starving child
when he asks daddy are you alright

The Wolves are back and their knocking
they want to take this house away
but I can't hide from them forever
they've already dragged my kids away

Where do you go when there's nowhere
where do you run when the land is dry
what do you tell a starving child
when he asks daddy are you alright

The Wolves are back and their knocking
there's no end to them in sight 
sometimes I want to set this house on fire to keep The Wolves away at night

Where do you go when there's nowhere
where do you run when the land is dry
what do you tell a starving child
when he asks daddy are you alright


Yes M.A.M.
