Hey Alexa! turn it up!
it's Saturday night... what a week I've had
Sitting home alone and feeling so bad
Talking to myself about how everything has gone wrong
When out of the blue I can hear this sweet sweet voice
Saying hey babe, tell me what's your choice?
I'm so amazed she knows all of my favorite songs
Hey Alexa turn it up
I wanna see the coffee shakin' in my cup
I've given up worrying 'bout what the neighbors might say
We could have a us a real good time
With my old guitar and some strawberry wine
Hey Alexa, All I need is you To chase these blues away
Whaddya say? Hey Alexa Help me chase the blues away
You got some rhythm and blues. You got rock 'n' roll
You're reaching right down to the center of my soul
A little Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, or some ol' John Prine
You seem to know just how I feel
You say "There's nothing that a little Chuck Berry can't heal"
Keep doin' what your doin' I'm beginning to feel just fine
Hey Alexa turn it up
I wanna see the coffee shakin' in my cup
I've given up worrying 'bout what the neighbors might say
We could have a us a real good time
With my old guitar and some strawberry wine
Hey Alexa, All I need is you To chase these blues away
Hey Alexa what's a girl like you doing in a place like this?
Hey Alexa would I be out of line to ask for one little kiss?
Hey Alexa turn it up
I wanna see the coffee shakin' in my cup
I've given up worrying 'bout what the neighbors might say
We could have a us a real good time
With my old guitar and some strawberry wine
Hey Alexa, All I need is you To chase these blues away

Bangin' My Head Against Your Door
I've been looking in your windows for any sign of life
Coming by time after time, for when the time is right
I've checked your Pulse so often. Could I do any more?
Or Is it just a waste of time.
Bangin' my head against your Door
I was still here to help you Fix your Bridge when it needed repair
I was in your Neighborhood when the Plates of Illinois were there
Hell, I was the Voice of Cherryland in 1974
But now it seems a waste of time just,
Bangin' my head against your Door
I've played Vanns down on 3rd venue and the old Railroad Inn
The Frontier Bar, The Makers Space, are places I have been
I've given Hands On Art , Stone Harbor, and Fishstock a try
These days I can't seem get arrested. I can't help wondering why...
So I'm looking for an answer to life's great mystery
Is it politics or nepotism to the 3rd degree
If there a way I could change your mind. That what I'm looking for
Till then I guess I'll just keep tryin'
Bangin' my head against your Door
Bangin' my head against your Door
I'll keep Bangin' my head against your Door

Feels Like Home

Feels Like Home
Calico curtains in a whispering wind
Sunday morning sunrise shining in
Through the branches of the oak tree.
It feels like home to me
Coffee on the stove, Biscuits and jam
No doubt about it I'm a lucky man
And there's no place I'd rather be.
It feels like home to me
Just a few miles out of town On a shady winding road
There's a place to rest your mind And lighten up your load
Feels like home. Feels like home to me
You and me sitting on the back porch swing
Listening to the robin and the bluebird sing
They sing their songs for free
It feel like home to me.
Little sip of wine and a campfire bright
Keeps a body warm on a Wisconsin night
Hopin' that you might agree
And come along with me.
Just a few miles out of town On a shady winding road
There's a place to rest your mind And lighten up your load
Just a little piece of paradise A place I'd like to share
Come on, set some time aside And I will meet you there
Feels like home to me.....feels like home.

Everybody Must Get Taxed
Well they'll tax you when you're trying to be so good
They'll tax everybody in your neighborhood
They'll tax your little home out on the range
They'll tax you and call it hope and change
But I would not get upset No just relax
Cause everybody must get taxed
They'll tax you when you're lying in your bed
They'll tax you when your just tryin' to get ahead
They'll tax the little money that you save
They'll tax you from the cradle to the grave
But I would not get so upset Just relax
Cause everybody must get taxed
They'll tax you based on who you love or hate
You'll pay a tax that's based upon your weight
They'll tax you if you smoke or if you drink
They'll tax you for every thought you think
But I would not get upset I'd just relax
Ah, Cause everybody must get taxed
Now they'll tax you if you drive an SUV
They'll tax you just for listening to me
They'll raise the tax on gas and say that's tough
Then they'll raise the tax when you don't drive enough
But I would not get upset. I'd just relax
Ah, Cause everybody must get taxed
When you die they'll tax what they can find
Then they'll tax anything that you might leave behind
Then they'll come and tax your next of kin
They'll tax you and then they'll come back again
But I would not get upset No just relax
Cause everybody must get taxed
They'll tax you for the art that's on your easel
They'll tax you every time you whack your weasel
They'll tax you when they legalize your bong
They'll tax you just for listening to this song
But I would not get upset No just relax
Yeah, Cause everybody must get taxed
