about

Written circa 2005, Little Rock, AR; Amended lyrically December 2012, Lafayette, LA.

lyrics

Oh, I woke up one morn
Wish I’d never been born
But it’s a beautiful day

Oh, some kids play with a ball
Red leaves out; it’s fall
Life goes on the same

Oh, just another quick song
It's two verses long
Because I want it that way
Oh, I've decided to stay
So very depressed
On a beautiful day

Oh, I been sober for days
I'm parched to the bone
God help me, I pray

And I'm been hungry in ways
For love and for things
Or a girl with a smile

Oh, I pushed on for miles
I’ve pushed on in vain
About broken my will

Oh, but I’m pushin’ on still
For what, I don’t know
For what, I can’t say

God, go pity yourself
You love no one else
Cause you want it that way

Yes, and I’ve decided to stay
So very depressed
On a beautiful day

My latest incarnation has me playing out often, sometimes touring, and writing and recording consistently. ... more
