Ron Todd - Lyrics

Going down, down the highway of life,
Foot to the floor in the morning light,
Soon be knocking, knocking on your door,
Take you places you never been before

Me and you feel like dynamite,
This time gotta get things right,
Where you are always feels like home,
In your arms never ever roam

Solo break

Here's the place I’m always gonna stay,
Wild horses won’t drag me away,
Our love will be for the rest of time,
you're so sweet like fruit hanging on the vine, 

You're my squeeze box always wanna play,
Be with you every single night and day,

So let's go
Once more,
Let's go
Once mor

Highway Of Life (Cooper/Todd Collaboration)

Holy Electronix

Folk number from way back merging a few concepts... Lammas is an August harvest festival and Martinmas a November cattle-slaughtering and salting-down for winter one. Plough Monday celebrates the burying of a corn 'dolly' made from the last harvest sheaf to 'embody' the corn spirit and provide a winter refuge prior to its summer rebirth. Kine is an old word for cattle. How in touch with the land were rural folk from centuries past, and how disconnected we seem today in our little plastic techno-bubbles.🙄My lyrics, Mr. L's music/vocals. Copyright 2008 Jay Rich and Mr. L. Lyrics below:

                John Barleycorn

V1:

Hail old John Barleycorn
Your once ripe earth is so forlorn
With weeds instead of grain it's overgrown
From its trials it seems so worn:
Planted seeds as yet unborn
Lie dormant in the soil in which they're sown

V2:

Come summer, crops stand tall and strong
With you to urge their growth along
So Lammas brings in rich and heavy yields
Reapers sing Thanksgiving songs
Nights are short and days are long
The harvest moon shines bright upon your fields

Ch1:

Hail old John Barleycorn
Arise and be reborn
John Barleycorn arise and be reborn

V3:

Lush pastures flush with feeding kine
And Mother Nature marking time:
Her rhythms and her cycles so well known
To you a reader of the signs
Knowing what she has in mind:
Horn of plenty for the harvest home

*****Break*****

V4:

Plough Monday's corn doll offering:
A ploy to ward off suffering
Tombed in the first furrow of the year
With Martinmas comes slaughtering
Of fattened stock now herded in
Feeling nature's bounty will bide near

V5:

As seasons pass embrace your fate
Of lyring low and enforced wait
Retirement though won't suit John Barleycorn
You'll do no more than hibernate
Your reappearance never late
Your spirit will return to be reborn

Ch2:

Hail old John Barleycorn
Arise and be reborn
John Barleycorn arise and be reborn

Ch3:

Hail old John Barleycorn
Arise and be reborn
John Barleycorn arise and be reborn

Outro:

John Barleycorn arise and be reborn
John Barleycorn arise and be reborn

Wanted to try out Arturia's New Pigments 5 Synth
And I was not disappointed.
Deep Joy what a creative tool
A Soundtrack named Pigment 5 Moon Tide

The words came from Divine with the energy inside and so was the background music chosen.

The Divine energy - my God Family works through me also like this.

These songs are meant to people in the need of this energy to help them in their life.

I am an unsigned singer/songwriter from Sunderland in the north east UK.

I have been writing songs for a few years now and have CD's on various web sites such as CD Baby, Itunes , Spotify etc.  My goal is to write good songs and hopefully have come up with a few along the way.

I love wring and recording songs – it gives me great pleasure staring from nothing but a blank piece of paper and finally coming up with something that sounds good.

I have collaborated with other people while being on Soundcloud – my long-time partner Ralph Donkin writes exceedingly good lyrics and between us have come up with many a good song.

My other partner Glen Granthem from Sacramento in USA has also been inspirational in my recordings – he is a very talented musician and producer and has brought life to many of my songs that otherwise would have been second rate.  We also have collaborated on many songs.

I have written songs with other people and I thank them from the bottom of my heart for their endeavours.

Thank you for all of you that have listened and commented on my songs and those who will in the future.  I am very grateful that you stopped by and listened – hope you have enjoyed what you have heard.

Again many thanks and good luck for the future in your musical endeavours.
