Waters Of Life

favorite Kirby songs

This man's love was a shipwreck, over and over, until it lay on the bottom of the sea.

Hole in the Stern

One of my favorite classics of the 50s, by Tennessee Ernie Ford

River of No Return

Hawaiian Breezes

I wrote this one in 1986, at the raw young age of 21. It was one of those ten-minute songs that song writers sometimes are gifted.

Life's a River

Banks of the Yellowstone

Old Snake River

"I Miss You Missing Me" is the melancholy song of a man who has lost his only true love and aches remembering a time when she used to miss him.

I Miss You Missing Me

A man's ode to the wonderful state of Idaho!

Cry Idaho

From the gray wolf's viewpoint, what happened to his West when his game animals started being replaced by sheep and cattle

El Lobo

My pal Brian Howell was a true cowboy, one of the last of the breed. Although sickness took him when he was still very young, I still see him riding the Idaho cattle ranges. This is my tribute to Brian and his family.
Ride on, cowboy!

Cowboy Ride On

My tribute to the greatest true cowboy who ever hit the airwaves, Chris LeDoux, 1976 Bareback Bronc riding champion, husband, father, and our friend. It was Chris who got me playing the guitar, and Chris who encouraged me to continue. He will be forever missed.

Chris LeDoux's Ghost

Former cop, retired city firefighter, author of forty novels, recording artist of 213 songs ... so far. I have a long way yet to go!
