February 25, 2021 Every Man Needs A Man Cave - Original collab with Chuck Aaron
Original Lyrics by Tony Harris (listed below)
Vocals, Melody and music by Chuck Aaron
YOU MAY THINK THAT I'M FOOLISH
FOR WANTIN' MY OWN SPACE
AND IT MAY SEEM CHILDISH
TO THE FEMALE RACE
DON'T PUT ME DOWN
FOR WANTIN' MY OWN PLACE
DON'T MAKE IT A SHOWDOWN
HONEY, IT'S NO DISGRACE
(CHORUS)
EVERY MAN NEEDS A MAN CAVE
A PLACE TO GET AWAY
EVERY MAN NEEDS A MAN CAVE
A HOME AWAY FROM HOME
EVERY MAN NEEDS A MAN CAVE
AND SOME TIME ALONE
EVERY MAN NEEDS A MAN CAVE
A PLACE TO GET AWAY
IT MAY BE A BASEMENT
OR A MAKE SHIFT STUDIO
IF IT'S A PLACE OF ENJOYMENT
THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS
WHEN LIFE GETS IN THE WAY
IN THIS OLD WORLD WE LIVE IN
WE NEED A SPECIAL PLACE
AND SOME OF GOD'S AMAZING GRACE
(REPEAT CHORUS 1 OR 2 TIMES)

Original Lyrics by Tony Harris (below)
Vocals, Music, Instruments and Mix by Glenny G's One Man Band
I SAW HER WALKIN' DOWN THE HALL
THE PRETTIST GIRL OF THEM ALL
SHE DIDN'T EVEN LOOK AT ME
WHAT COULD THE PROBLEM BE
I ADMITT THAT I WAS SHY
A VERY QUITE KIND OF GUY
WHY DIDN'T SHE LOOK MY WAY
ON THAT PARTICULAR DAY
(CHORUS)
DON'T BE AFRAID TO ASK A PRETTY GIRL OUT
BELIEVE ME I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKIN' ABOUT
DON'T LET IT BE SOMETHING YOU'LL REGRET
DON'T BE AFRAID TO ASK A PRETTY GIRL OUT
WHY DIDN'T I TRY TO TALK TO HER
AND ASK FOR HER NUM-BER
WHY DIDN'T I GIVE IT A TRY
INSTEAD OF BEIN' SO SHY
THAT WAS A LONG TIME AGO
WILL NEVER FORGET THAT DAY
DON'T BE A SHY KIND OF GUY
I'M TRYIN' TO TELL YOU WHY
(REPEAT CHORUS)
(SOLO)
(REPEAT CHORUS)
SAW HER WALKIN' DOWN THE HALL
PRETTIEST GIRL OF THEM ALL

Lyrics by Tony Harris
Vocal, Music and Mix by Riff Beach
The lyrics that inspired Riff are listed below.
SOME MOMENTS ARE SPECIAL
IN THIS LIFE THAT WE LIVE
SOME MOMENTS BRING US DOWN
CAUSE US TO COME UNWOUND

COLLECT THE SPECIAL MOMENTS
DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE BAD ONES
TIME IS MOVIN' WAY TOO FAST
DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE PAST

(CHORUS)
USE YOUR GOD GIVEN TALENTS
BE A COLLECTOR OF SPECIAL MOMENTS
GIVE SOMEONE A HELPIN' HAND
ALWAYS LOVE YOUR FELLOW MAN
BE A COLLECTOR OF SPECIAL MOMENTS

SOME NEVER COLLECT SPECIAL MOMENTS
THEY WASTE PRECIOUS MINUTES
LIVIN' IN THE FAST LANE
ENDURIN' LOTS OF PAIN

DON'T LIVE IN THE FAST LANE
ALWAYS TAKE THE SLOW TRAIN
LIFE IS BUT A VAPOR
WE ALL HAVE TO MEET OUR MAKER

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Lyrics by Tony Harris (listed below)
Vocal/Guitar by Phillip Clarkson
Full Band Version Master 12/31/20 by Daniele Turani
(Use Headphones for best sound)
STOPPING AT OUR LITTLE COUNTRY STORE
EVERY HEAD TURNED AS SHE WALKED THROUGH THE FRONT DOOR
SAYING, HOW DO I GET BACK TO I-65
SHE HAD TO BE THE PRETTEST GIRL ALIVE

THE STORE OWNER TRIED TO GIVE DIRECTIONS
AS HE LOOKED AT HER BEAUTIFUL COMPLECTION
HE FINALLY MANAGED TO SAY COUNTY 25
WILL TAKE YOU BACK TO I-65

AS SHE WALKED OUT THE FRONT DOOR
JOHNNY SAW HER AND SAID "OH MY LORD"
AS HIS HEART SHIFTED INTO OVERLOAD"…HE SAID
SHE COULD MAKE A FREIGHT TRAIN TAKE A DIRT ROAD

(CHORUS)
SHE COULD MAKE A FREIGHT TRAIN TAKE A DIRT ROAD
WITH THE PRETTEST EYES I'VE EVER SEEN
LOOKIN' LIKE A MODEL IN A MAGAZINE
YEA, SHE COULD MAKE A FREIGHT TRAIN TAKE A DIRT ROAD

JOHNNY RUSHED OUT TO HIS TRUCK
AND TRIED TO CATCH HER, BUT NO LUCK
HE CHECKED EVERY INCH OF COUNTY 25
ALL THE WAY BACK TO I-65

HE STILL TALKES ABOUT THAT DAY
AND WANDERS WHY HE LET HER GET AWAY
DON'T BE AFRAID TO ASK A PRETTY GIRL OUT
JOHNNY KNOWS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT

(REPEAT CHORUS)

August 28, 2020 Johnny - Lyrics by Tony Harris - Featuring Glenny G's One Man Band - Original
Lyrics by Tony Harris
Vocals, Music & Mix by Glen Granthem
The lyrics below inspired Glen to produce this track.
JOHNNY WASEN'T A PREACHER MAN
OR THE LEADER OF A WORSHIP BAND
HE WASEN'T A BIG TIME MINISTER
OR EVEN A SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER

HE NEVER EVER PRAYED OUT LOUD
OR TRIED TO STAND OUT IN A CROWD
HE WAS NO STRANGER TO LUST OR SIN
NEVER AFRAID TO SAY AMEN

(CHORUS)
JOHNNY LOVED JESUS, MUSIC AND FAMILY
HE WAS ABSOLUTELY HIS OWN WORST ENEMY
HE LOVED SINGIN' PRAISES TO HIS LORD
PRAYED THAT HEAVEN WOULD BE HIS REWARD

HE DIDN'T LIVE IN A MANSION
OR NEED LOTS OF ATTENTION
HE DIDN'T DRIVE A FANCY CAR
OR OWN ANY RARE GUITARS

HE LOVED HIS OLD FLAT TOP
AND HE PLAYED IT NONSTOP
HE WAS A TRUE DISCIPLE
OF THAT OLD TIME COUNTRY GOSPEL

(REPEAT CHORUS)

NOW HE'S SINGIN' WITH THE ANGEL'S
AND WALKIN' THE STREETS OF GOLD

(GUITAR SOLO)

(REPEAT CHORUS )

August 16, 2020 Susi's Music - Lyrics by Tony - Featuring Riff Beach - Original
A tribute to Susi Lawson - SusiSoulJourney
https://soundcloud.com/susisouljourney
Lyrics that inspired Riff are below.
WHILE DRINKING MY COFFEE
I WAS READIN' ABOUT SUSI
ON HER SOUNDCLOUD SITE
ON A COLD RAINY NIGHT

SHE'S ONE OF THE VOICES
OF THE TENNESSEE MOUNTAIN'S
HER NEVER ENDIN' DRIVE
KEEPS THE MOUNTAIN MUSIC ALIVE

(CHORUS)
THE MUSIC RECORDED BY SUSI
BRINGS OUT THE BEST IN US
FILLS US WITH TENDERNESS
BRINGS US A LITTLE HAPPINESS

SUSI'S A LOVER OF MUSIC
HER SOUND IS POETIC
HER VOCALS ARE REAL
WITH A DOWN HOME FEEL

IF YOU'RE UNWOUND
GIVE SUSI'S MUSIC A LISTEN
HER LAID BACK SOUND
COMES FROM HER HEART

(REPEAT CHORUS)
