lyrics

She found him one morning
In his easy chair
It looked as if he was smiling
It seemed like he had not a care

I'd see him walk by in the mornings
We'd chat about nothing at all
His union suit all ironed neatly
And his cowboy hat standing tall

He played pedal steel in the evenings
He was young at age eighty three
He made playing music seem easy
With roots grounded deep as a tree

He's playing that steel now above us
For all of our loved ones to hear
Spirits waltzing and dancing the two-step
I feel that he is still near

He played pedal steel in the evenings
He was young at age eighty three
He made playing music seem easy
With roots grounded deep as a tree

The Carnivaleros Tucson, Arizona

My songs contain elements of blues, tango, zydeco, cajun, country, rock, and yes, polka (of course!). I see my songs as mini- movies, novellas put to music.
