Description
After a double hip replacement, figuring out how to walk again, and way too much work to catch-up on - I am bursting with music creativity. I have a wonderful getaway home way up north in Wisconsin along Lake Michigan.
Two weeks ago I brought up the fabulous Q who plays upright bass with the best of them thwackers and we recorded a mess of tunes in a weekend of whiskey and song. Here is the first of the batch I will pitching to Nashville's Music Row soon.
John LaMantia: Vocals, Acoustic guitars, Fender Teles, Drums, Production
Q: Upright Bass Fiddle

Lyrics
I'm gonna ride that train Southern side
to Nashville Town
Gonna pick up steam and make my way to Nashville Town
Gonna play guitar and drink my whiskey
Understand the rules of Dixie
Meet a girl and fall in love Nashville Town
Crazy Bobby loved his Daisy
Loved her like he wasn't crazy
Daisy loved her Bobby too in Nashville Town
Chaplain Larry said the service
Bobby said he wasn't nervous
Daisy looked so beautiful in her white gown
Oh, it ain't no bed of roses
Sometimes life gets harder when you try
Oh, just come and lay beside me
We might figure out this world in time
Now Daisy caught her Bobby cheating
Bobby said he was deceiving
Daisy got so mad she burned her wedding gown
Now Bobby drinks most every night
Thinkin' bout what should be right
Daisy's got another man in Nashville Town
Oh, it ain't no bed of roses
Sometimes life gets harder when you try
Oh, just come and lay beside me
We might figure out this world in time
I'm gonna ride that train Southern side
to Nashville Town
Gonna pick up steam and make my way to Nashville Town
Gonna play guitar and drink my whiskey
Understand the rules of Dixie
Meet a girl and fall in love Nashville Town
to Nashville Town
Gonna pick up steam and make my way to Nashville Town
Gonna play guitar and drink my whiskey
Understand the rules of Dixie
Meet a girl and fall in love Nashville Town
Crazy Bobby loved his Daisy
Loved her like he wasn't crazy
Daisy loved her Bobby too in Nashville Town
Chaplain Larry said the service
Bobby said he wasn't nervous
Daisy looked so beautiful in her white gown
Oh, it ain't no bed of roses
Sometimes life gets harder when you try
Oh, just come and lay beside me
We might figure out this world in time
Now Daisy caught her Bobby cheating
Bobby said he was deceiving
Daisy got so mad she burned her wedding gown
Now Bobby drinks most every night
Thinkin' bout what should be right
Daisy's got another man in Nashville Town
Oh, it ain't no bed of roses
Sometimes life gets harder when you try
Oh, just come and lay beside me
We might figure out this world in time
I'm gonna ride that train Southern side
to Nashville Town
Gonna pick up steam and make my way to Nashville Town
Gonna play guitar and drink my whiskey
Understand the rules of Dixie
Meet a girl and fall in love Nashville Town
