Please leave me alone



You're usin' me up
You're wearing' me down
You're everywhere baby
You're always around

At first I thought it was so sweet
Now I can't seem to get me no peace

Like walkin' on Egg shells
Like liven' in hell

Please leave me alone
Please lease me alone
Just leave me alone


You're the life guard baby
That just can't swim
You're the school bus driver 
Stinking of gin
You want to steer the ship
But you can't see
Your blinded by love
And I'm your casualty


In my mind I'm floating on an Island
Somewhere where there are no spoken words
Not a word
To be heard

So show me an exit
Point to the sign
Give me a ticket
And I'll be fine
Far far away from the 
Madding crowd
Where the music is playing
Ever so loud

That Little Girl of Mine


She's more than I asked for 
Much more than I deserve
She gives me such lovin'
She rocks my world
Who could imagine
She'ld choose to love me
She's so fine
That little girl of mine
She don't keep no secrets
She don't tell no lies
With just one kiss
My hearts in over drive
She's so understanding
And forgiving too
She's so fine
That little girl of mine
I don't know what this life will bring
But I'm happy just to go for the ride
I don't know what she does to me
but what she does to me is just fine
That little girl of mine
I don't need no Jaguar
or no swimming pool
I got a good women
and soothes my soul
Who could imagine
She'ld choose to love me
She's so fine
That little girl of mine

Just a Bird in New York City


She looks so small you would never know
The strength that she has within
Watch her now as she readies to go
Surrender to the heavens

White clouds hover above so thin
She lifts her head to the sky
She's up and off such a glorious spin
Listen to that songful cry

Now she's up, up and away
On her musical journey
Up, up and away
Just a Bird in New York City

Lilting little melodies
Become huge crescendo
Riffing through steadily
Any way the wind blows

Now she soars higher than
Places  you've never imagined
Who would bet such a song
Could be set to rhythm and reason

Surely this is magic I see
She let's the music set her free
So free

Now she's up, up and away
On her musical her journey
Up, up and away
Just a bird in New York City
Such a bird in New York City

Beneath those constellations


Sun has set
Beyond the horizon
Moon has risen
In the outer realms

Stars shining
Over my head
World is silent
All is peaceful and still

It's a whisper
It's a sigh
It's a moment
You can't pass by
Right here by my side
Beneath those constellations

Crickets chirping
In the dark
Nightingale singing
Now it's twilight

A quiet moment
We're all alone
Everything is calm
Now we're finally home

It's a whisper
It's a sigh
It's a moment
You can't pass by
Right here by my side
Beneath those constellations

Key West Time


The sun is shining
Ain't a cloud in the sky
I got the top pulled down
Got by baby by my side
Take south bound U. S.  one
Headed straight for fun
Leaving all our troubles and worries behind
On Key West Time
Key West Time
Key West
Key West
Key West
Key West
We’re going down to Key West
And have us a real good time
There's a frozen Margaretta
That's calling my name
At a bar in Oldtown
Where we'll rock the night away
Nobody has a care
We'll be working on our tans
Leaving all our troubles and worries behind
On Key West Time
Key West Time
So if you get those winter time blues
Longing for that I love you
Pack you bages and hit the road
You don't need a map
Here's all you need to know
Take south bound U. S.  one
Headed straight for fun
Leaving all our troubles and worries behind
On Key West Time
Key West Time
Key West
Key West
Key West
Key West
We’re going down to Key West
And have us a real good time
