Superfine

Well I'm running late and I'm getting just a little behind
My feet are dragging and it feels like a long hard climb
The further I go, the farther I'm back in line
But when I'm with you I feel right on time.
I'm picking it up, trying to get ahead
But I just keep losing my mind
One step up, two steps back feels like the same old grind
I feel like the worm that the early bird always finds
But when I'm with you I feel right on time
But when I'm with you I feel right on time
But when I'm with you I feel superfine
Got places to go, people to see but I feel like I'm running blind
Where do I go and who do you know
Are the only words I seem to find
When I get to the station all I hear is the whistle whine
But when I'm with you I feel right on time
But when I'm with you I feel right on time
But when I'm with you I feel superfine

Waiting on the Snow
03:38

Summers balmy breezes don’t thrill me much
I’d rather feel the slap of Jack Frosts touch
Throw another log right in the stove
Cause I’m just waiting on the snow.
Don’t get me wrong , I like BBQ and beer
They taste good any time of year
Nothing better than a beer that’s almost froze
I’m just waiting on the snow
When people say that it’s too cold
It’s hard for me not to rant and scold
When folks say they don’t like the snow
I’d like to tell em where the hell to go
Well it don’t matter what you like to ride
Ski, snowboard, skate or sled, just slide
Just let old gravity take a hold- well
I’m just waiting on the snow
Autumns fancy colors please the eye
But I need satisfaction from the sky
Nor’easter, lake effect ,blizzard let it blow
I’m just waiting on the snow
Feel it fall down from the sky
I’m just waiting on the snow
Love it when it starts to fly
I’m---just waiting---on the snow

Jugband Waltz

Chorus
Would you dance with me to the Jugband’s waltz
It’s easy as breathing the air
Would you dance with me at the Jugbands waltz
I hope that you will be there
I remember the day when first we knew
It was the start of a slow burning fuse
And it burned with flame that grew brighter each day
And at night we had nothing to lose.
Chorus
When the moon shines bright on this Adirondack night
And the air is so clear you can hear
The sound of the music from over the hill
I hope that it calls you there
Chorus

Say Tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow that you’ll be mine
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow that we’ll be fine
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow that it will be
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow just you and me
Chorus
Ain’t no use in waiting
Love takes time to smile
Ain’t no sense in fretting
I’ll come back for you in a while
Aint no use in sitting alone
Waiting on the moon
Time will serve you right
We’ll be together soon
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow will be the day
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow that you will stay
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow that you believe
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow that you won’t leave
Chorus
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow that it will be
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow just you and me
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow we will sing
Say tomorrow tomorrow
Say tomorrow you’ll wear my ring

Shoeshine Man

I’m a shoeshine man that’s what I do
You need a shine I can give it to you
I see you’re lookin for the best
It seems like you have tried the rest
Cowboy buff or an oxford shine
You night not know the difference but I do
I’m a shoeshine man
I do the best I can and
I’ll do it for you
I’m a moonshine man that’s what I do
You need some shine I can make it for you
I cook it up in a little still
Tucked away, way back in the hills
Corn, Barley, Wheat or Rye
Pick your favorite flavor tasty high
I’m a moonshine man
I make the best I can and
I’’ll do it for you
I’m a soulshine man that’s what I do
You need your soulshined I could do it for you
You says there’s things that you have done
You were thinking it was all just fun
Say five hail marys, drink a whiskey jar
Live a simple life
It will take you far
I’m a soulshine man
I do the best I can and
I’ll do it for you

Slow Damn Down
03:10
|

Slow damn down, you're going too fast
Take this moment and try and make it last
Take that moment and try and hold it in your hands
The past catches up with you in the future so they say
Enjoy the day
Slow damn down, take a minute to think
Take a good long pull from the well you drink
it might be the last one for a long long time
And as you drink, think about the speed at which you will arrive
Slow damn down, you're playing too fast
Take that note and try to make it last
Let it linger on and on like the coming of a storm
Let it float among the other notes and dance and play a while before it's gone

After the Storm

After the Storm
After the storm it will be all right
It will take time to show
At least you’re still here, standing your ground
The water can’t take all you know.
After the storm when the sun starts to shine
And the world looks both sad and blue
You take what you got and leave the rest
You just got to start something new
Chorus
Two hands planting a seed
Four hands when you’re in need
Eight hands to shoulder the load
All hands to lift you up
After the storm
After the storm when the water runs clear
And the damage that’s here is done
You pick yourself up the best that you can
Nothin that can’t be undone
After the storm long after its gone
And the memory still lingers near
Take every day and live it your way
Let your life overshadow the fear
