Just Getting By

Now in the land of milk and honey 
In the home of the free and the brave  
It’s a time of feast or famine  and your worth equals your pay 
Sometimes you gotta wonder why
  Work hard all your life but still just getting by
Still just getting by

Well now, do you have or have you not 
Its the question of the day  
And your answer will determine
 If you’re out or got it made 
Sometimes you gotta wonder why
  Work hard all your life but still just getting by 
Still just getting by 
Yea

¯\_(ツ)_/¯  solo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

The bills they just keep coming  
The prices they all rise
 World you used to know before  crumbles by and by  
The same olds never ending
 But the dream keeps you alive  
Till you finely you realise 
That that dreams a lie

Oh, do what you can hope for the best  
Who knows you might win lotto yet  
Life a gamble and you know it’s true  
When one man wins the others lose 
Your lifes defined right from the start  
So get in line and do your part  
Buck the system if you dare 
But it’s dog-eat-dog so just beware 
Sometimes you gotta wonder why  
Work hard all your life but still just getting by
 Still just getting by 
Sometimes you gotta wonder why  
Work hard all your life and still just getting by
Still just getting by
Bye bye, still just getting by
Bye bye, still just getting by 
Yea

I thought it was time to start writing and recording some new songs, with a view to putting together a new solo album over the winter. For this song I have returned to my nylon string Morris guitar. Hope you like it!
LYRICS:
Sitting…. In my rocking chair
Rollin…….. with the beat
Pickin …..out a tune
Keeping time… tapping my feet

Maybe I’m getting old 
Maybe I’m getting slow 
Maybe things don’t seem like they used to do
Maybe, maybe not…. I don’t know 

Sitting….. in my rocking chair 
Close my eyes and see
All the places I have been
Just rollin … with the beat

Maybe I’m getting old 
Maybe I’m getting slow 
Maybe things don’t seem like they used to do
Maybe, maybe not…. I don’t know

My Rocking Chair

It's always hard to lose someone you care about. 
It's even harder to lose someone from your youth.
A great friend, someone who was always there 4 you
no matter what. Just like family!

She was a real Tomboy. I still chuckle and smile thinking about it.
One time she got into a fight because some random person grabbed her ass
when walking by. She knocked this dude right through the bar's window!
That's how badass she was, hence her nickname " One Punch Nicky ".

She was very pretty and had a killer friendly smile which in turn
caught most people off guard due her aggressive nature.
Which often would work in her favor! She was a real spitfire. 
Can't even remember how many times
I grabbed her by the hair to break up fights! She wasn't a hateful person.
Just one of those things growing up. Troubled, being young and stupid!

So many good memories and even the bad, will cherish those 4life.
It's bin so long now, still missing you dear Nicky / Nicolai.
This track is a reminder to myself that I will never 4get you!

This ones 4you sweety =X=

Your Wicked Ways

Only a love song. Not more, not less.
A very easy song, very easy to play, very easy to sing, perhaps a song to sing along? We composed this music, what could you do with this? It developped into a love song, what else could this music be? We usually don't write ordinary love songs, but why not occasionally...

Time With You Began

Written for songwriting contest, w/theme the Santa Fe River in n. Florida. Translations..."Timucuan": native people in n FL at time of Spanish Conquest.  "Cracker Cowboys": colloquial name for cattlemen who herded wild cattle north during the Civil War.  "O'leno town": ghost town on the Santa Fe, a swinging bridge built in the 1930's is still there.  

Roll On, River   c. 2023 by Mike Manetz

V. 1
The river was Timucuan,
Before the comin' of the white-man's gun.
'Neath the giant cypress trees,
They fished the river wild and free.
Spanish priests came one day,
Taught the natives how to pray,
Named the river Santa Fe,
River watched them fade away.

Chorus
Roll on, river,
On and on forever,
She'll be rollin' on when we're all passed and gone.
Through centuries of hopes and dreams,
Conquistadors, fools and thieves,
Roll on, river,
Roll on,
River, roll on...

V2
Cracker cowboys took control,
After driving out the Seminole.
Their cattle on the muddy banks,
Would feed the hungry rebel ranks.
Black man runnin' to be free, 
Down the Santa Fe on to the sea.
Midnight paddle down to where,
A Yankee gunboat's waitin' there.

Chorus

V 3  
Lovers at O'Leno town,
On a swingin' bridge they're lookin' down,
River rushes there below,
Like a thousand years ago.
Their kids will play computer games,
They'll forget the history and the names,
But the river holds the memories,
Of all she touches, all she sees...

Chorus




Their kids will play computer games,
They'll forget the history and the names,
Of all of those who came before,
Guess it doesn't matter anymore...

Centuries of hopes and dreams,
Conquistadors, fools and thieves,
All they left is all but washed away,
Their kids will play computer games,
And forget the history and the names,
of all of those who came before,
They don't care much for that anymore...

Roll On, River

After listening to this incredible guitar piece, I instantly connected to it. I'm grateful for Nenad agreeing to let me collaborate. We hope you like it!

Lyrics

He thought he was invincible
She thought she was immune
Love it found them in the dark
It found them out too soon

Love was unavoidable
She said she didn't care
He hid his head beneath the sand
And it caught them unaware

When love unfolds
There's no control

A glance, a smile, a kiss, they found love, chased dreams, vowed to never let it die
A love so blind

A dream, a life of love, they held on, pulled through, always giving it a try
A state of mind

They fell on to hard times, they fell so so hard
They failed to see the signs, and they fell apert
Alone and on their knees
Their love had just deceased

Clinging to the love they knew
Fighting in despair
Love had taken everything
There was nothing left to share

Pain is unavoidable
The heart can feel old
Love takes a lifetime to be learnt
It's not a story quickly told

Quickly Told Story (Collab with Neno J)
