Verse:

Got my vices-

Yeah but I got my choices too

But ain’t you got mercy, darlin’

Can’t I get some from you



You got worries baby-

But I got you-

Ain’t we got a little somethin’

To get us through



Chorus:

Have some faith- to carry me

I know your love boy, can set me free

Give me some time –cause you know that I’m on my way

And I’m just as broke down as a girl can be



So we got troubles –

How can all the blame be mine

Don’t everyone have them –baby

Just of a different kind



Baby –what’s you hurry

Take my hand and we’ll leave behind

All of your worries

And we’ll make the best of the rest of time



Chorus



Bridge:

Reminisce about the good times

When I was yours and you were all mine

Now can’t you believe-won’t you believe-that I’m something you need-



Chorus

March of Dimes walk 04/24/10...for my girls Jolie and Maggie!

Revving up for the March of Dimes walk tomorrow …I should have posted this a lot sooner…but I am never one for getting things done at the right time…Me and my family do this walk every year since 07 in honor and memory of our daughter Jolie(7/07/07) who was born just a few months early. She was with us for only moments but her presence here changed our lives forever. I feel it so important to not only walk for this cause but to spread the good news about March of Dimes and all the work and research that it does in order to help save the lives of all little babies born pre-mature. I feel I would do a great disservice if I did not share my experience with others in hopes of preventing them from enduring the same hardship. This walk signifies not only a powerful memory and “time marker” for me and my husband but also an incredible celebration…we have made it full term…first and foremost of coarse, due to the grace of God we were blessed with another unbelievably, beautiful baby girl who is now 18months old …but I also like to credit foundations such as the March of Dimes…who through continuous research and new discoveries…have found ways to save babies. We are again pregnant…expecting our third baby! I don’t want to leave out the fact that due to some of our own research and experience we discovered that one of the problems that I personally have while being pregnant…is lack of adequate progesterone production….especially beginning 2nd trimester…I take weekly progesterone shots starting at 16weeks and fully believe that these shots helped get my little baby Maggie here on time ….and am taking them currently for the one in the oven. I send out my deepest regret and sympathy for any mother or father who has had to experience the loss of their sweet little baby…but I also give you hope…we are an example(Maggie is an example) that …that MIRACLES do happen!!!!!!


See the link posted below if you would like to learn more about the March of Dimes …or sponsor us for the walk tomorrow…donations for this cause are greatly appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to read this as it is and always will be a cause so near and dear to our hearts. I am so thankful to God to experience the joy that having a child has brought to my life! Keep ‘em coming Lord!

for Mandi and Ian's beautiful baby girl born into this world 10/18/09

Congrats to Mandi, Ian and Mr.Finn (who is now a Big brother)!!!!

...this song is special for you and your new little girl...you know Ive already sang it to my lil Maggie a million times!

Other than having your own child...I feel one of the most amazing miracles to witness is seeing another ...have one of there own...the moment that you see a child actually enter the world...straight from the arms of God...into the arms of her mother and father...this is truly a remakable moment!

like I said in my song...I guess Im two for two now...you having babies is a good inspiration for my songwriting...i think it is simply because of how deeply and wonderfully you love your children...I am so thankful to have been there to share in one of the most magnificnet moments of your life....thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing this moment with me.


A song for (?) 10/18/09



Baby open up your eyes –ive waited a long time
Just to see you
Baby show me how you smile-for awhile, Ive waited
Just to hold you

And yes-its how it should be
And yes its all it could be

Baby in my arms you’ll stay, cause ive never known a day
to love without you

Baby I hold you oh so tight,
you’re all my might, and for all my life
Oh-how ill love you

And yes-its how it should be
And yes its all it could be

Baby on my chest you lay…so still I stay
As I feel my heart growing

For a girl all of my own, what do I owe
To deserve ...never knowing

And yes-its how it should be
And yes its all it could be

Got It All Down...Friday NightFish Fry...copyright 05

its a good day to be alive...i hope you enjoy tonights fish fry...

one thing is for sure...I should not be a guitar player...any volunteers?????


Got It All Down

Wish I could come home


And see you all dressed up

Maybe if I never left ya



But looks like you got it all down



Wish that’s something I’d of thought of

And known that life would still go on

And we’d both make other plans



Oh it looks like you got it down



Chorus:

But won’t you think of me –as you lay to dream

Won’t you think of me a little in between



And once you get it all down



Wish I could show you

Looks like I’m getting closer

Those steps are getting lesser



And I got it all down



Wish I knew just one way

To do both two things

You know I’ll be sending you this letter



And I hope I got it all down

Chorus

Josie-Friday Night Fish Fry copyright 05

this a very meaningful song to me...wrote a lot of years ago from a personal experience...I heard some news recently that really brought this song back into my mind...I hate sometines to devulge to much info about the meaning of my songs as I would hope that the listener finds his own interpretation...something that is meaningful to him ...something personal...

however some of the "song" background is...while living in Nashville my Daddy would send me some of his song ideas on tape  ...me and him would often come up with some pretty cool stuff together...anyway...he sent me a tape labeled Josie..and told me that -that's who he thought of when he played it....well it was just a guitar chord progression...and I immediately had a melody and words to add to it...then I found the perfect chorus and bridge to add...and ta-da..it was a beautiful co-write...

Josie

I know the time, I know the time wasn’t right

Oh but I’d of sure liked to try

I know the time, I know the time wasn’t mine

But I’d a wrapped you up and held you tight



Josie come fly with me-

We gonna make it alright

Josie come fly with me

We gonna make through the night



You see I don’t know what I’d of said

But I’d of shouted it out real loud anyway

And I wonder sometimes about if things had turned out that way

oh…HOPE…is a new day



Chorus

Bridge:

Come on, come-on Josie

Hold On, hold on Josie

Come on -hold on tight

Josie hold on one more night

You Can Hold On

there are those moments...when you close your eyes...and imagine how things should be...and then when re-opened things are exactly as you had imagined...exactly how they should be....i am right there in my life right now...

here is the latest song...directors cut ...though the meaning of this song may not correlate exactly with the sentiment above...the song is a dedication...and for whom ...well, they will know who they are and to simply hold on...

You Can Hold On

and for hope, aint there none
cant make do, what you've undone
you could go-but wont you stay
cant take -what you aint gave

cant sleep in this bed thats been made
so wont you plead, wont you beg
cant go back and take away
all this pain-all this shame

you can hold on

aint there days when the rain
seems like it could wash you all clean
and you just fall to your knees
no you cant break free

you can hold on

cant find the right words
cant find 'em

you are my sunshine....maggie elise

well ..okay so I was having one of those days...ya know...i was actually looking forward to my Fish Fry tonight (yeah I kinda get into to it) I told you its my outlet...anyway..i even pulled out the fancy electric...and had Frankie helpin me pull down the big PA speakers and mics and mic stands...oh man...i put my girl down for bed and then decided to plug in...and turn up the juice...full volume...poor miss mags...i guess she is getting used to it ...she didnt even wake up...well anyway.....I was planning on doing a pretty cool song...one that you hadn't heard of coarse ...it was an orginal...but.....
well ...it sucked...the guitar playing totally sucked...see Im not a very good guitar player (Im sure you have noticed)...but i try ...i really do....well short story long...cause thats how I usaully tell it...i had to give up on showing you my cool song ...anyway...it became a principal thing ..that I at least sing something...because usually I would say ...skrew it ...but not tonight ...there is gonna be a fish fry...because i said there would be! so heres to one of Maggies favorites (or so I like to think) YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE....ahh what a classic...i will be more prepared next week ....
