This track is a classic Elvis tune and one of his more playful tracks. It is a great representation of the flirtatious nature that Rockabilly sometimes boasts. When trying to think of album openers, I always came back to this song. This is my interpretation of a great song! It's catchy, It's flirty and It's Elvis. Who can argue with that?

LYRICS: 

Little sister, don't you 
Little sister, don't you 
Little sister, don't you 
Kiss me once or twice 
Then say it's really nice 
And then you run 
Little sister, don't you 
Do what your big sister done 

Well, I dated your big sister 
And took her to a show 
I went for some candy 
Along came Jim Dandy 
And they snuck right out the back door 

Little sister, don't you 
Little sister, don't you 
Little sister, don't you 
Kiss me once or twice 
Then say it's really nice 
And then you run 
Little sister, don't you 
Do what your big sister done 

Every time I see your sister 
She's got somebody new 
She's mean and she's evil 
Like that little old Boll Weevil 
Guess I'll try my luck with you 

Little sister, don't you 
Little sister, don't you 
Little sister, don't you 
Kiss me once or twice 
Then say it's really nice 
And then you run 
Little sister, don't you 
Do what your big sister done 

Well, I used to pull your pigtails 
And pinch your turned-up nose 
But you been a growin' 
And, baby, it's been showin' 
From your head down to your toes 

Little sister, don't you 
Little sister, don't you 
Little sister, don't you 
Kiss me once or twice 
Then say it's really nice 
And then you run 
Little sister, don't you 
Do what your big sister done 

Little sister, don't you 
Do what your big sister done

Welcome Back

Little Sister

wrote this song both about personal frustration and an old blues legend. 

Robert Johnson was one of the greatest blues artists that ever lived. He was so good that some said he met the Devil at a crossroads to sell his soul in exchange for musical talent. This is paid tribute to in my all-time favorite film "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" 

I got the image of a Crossroads in my head from the Robert Johnson myths. However, this song is also about people who refuse to take responsibility and make mature decisions. It frustrates me when I see people in my own age group who cannot act like they have a lick of sense and that's what this song warns against.
lyrics
LYRICS: 

I found him laying dead at the cross roads in life 
He was in a bind and wouldn't clear his mind 
And I found him laying dead at the crossroads in life 

His family didn't weep when they found out he was dead 
His friends didn't feel when they asked for his will 
And nobody cried when they saw the man who died 

Nobody thinks about the crossroads in life 
They just want to stop and see the sights 
But you'll be the next one to lose you life 
If you don't take a stand at the crossroads in life

Crossroads

In 2013, I almost lost my love and devotion to music completely. Ever since then, it has been rocky and fill with turmoil, guilt and sadness even when I am full force into my music. 

Joseph Brian Medrano was the lead guitar player in the band I had been apart of for nearly an entire decade. We played together, wrote songs together and were on the road together. He passed away due to a massive seizure in the summer of 2013. 

After this, I had no more drive to do music. I almost sold everything music related I had until my Wife stopped me. It wasn't until 2017 that I finally got myself together and started doing music again. Somehow I came across this Folk song and thought it described my situation perfectly. 

I changed the melody, the words and the theme of the original tune. In a sense, I do see it as an original work because I only see my heart and grief in it now. If someone asked me to play this in a traditional way, with all due respect, I don't think I could. 

It rings even more true in my goals and aspirations...  more

LYRICS: 

All the Good Times are Passed and Gone 
All the Good Time are Over 
All the Good Times are Passed and Gone 
Darling don't you weep no more 

I wish to God I had never been born 
Or died when I was young 
I'd never have to see you close your eyes 
Or heard your wonderful songs 

All the Good Times are Passed and Gone 
All the Good Time are Over 
All the Good Times are Passed and Gone 
Darling don't you weep no more 

Don't you hear that lonesome train 
Rolling around the bend 
Taking me away from the one that I loved 
Never to return again 

All the Good Times are Passed and Gone 
All the Good Time are Over 
All the Good Times are Passed and Gone 
Darling don't you weep no more 

Come back to me my dearest Friend 
Stay a while with me 
If I ever had a friend to love 
You would be that friend to me 

All the Good Times are Passed and Gone 
All the Good Time are Over 
All the Good Times are Passed and Gone 
Darling don't you weep no more
