Description
A peaceful easy folk song for bruised reeds by the river...
I wrote the lyrics today, and recorded this evening. I had the song sketch tucked away, forgotten on my H2 recorder when I found it the other day. This is a one-take on guitar, then vocal, then harp. I found some other song ideas along with this one that I hope to follow through on and make into songs... so much to do... so little time ;-)
Guitar recorded with H2
Vocal with Nady mic
Harp with Shure M57

Lyrics
The Riverside
Have troubles got you so entwined
Tangled up and undermined?
Then make a line down to the riverside.
So-called friends may malign
The breaks of life are so unkind
Just slip your mind down to the riverside.
Life dishes out unfair heartache
Trying, you can't catch a break
There's give and take down at the riverside.
Some dream that life's a piece of cake
In denial till they wake
For goodness sake come down to the riverside.
Hey my friend Chauncey, he's no fool
He understands life is cruel
But he knows it's cool down by the riverside.
For him this is the golden rule
Others play the stubborn mule
Here's hoping you'll come down to the riverside.
Come unwind, it's not too late
Bear in mind, don't hesitate.
Come clean your slate down at the riverside.
Just grab a plate of peace of mind
Don't debate, if you're so inclined.
Sit and dine down at the riverside.
