He sees her gather water
By a broken stream
Tending garden
Living in her dreams
These days
None ever known like these
Now he's crying
Right there on his kness

Pale Horse, Pale Rider
Sure to ride today
Pale Horse, Pale Rider
has taken her away

She went to her love
And said she had to leave
to fight for country
and God above
In a foreign land
she was taken by surprise
What will he say
When he sees their child's eyes

Pale Horse, Pale Rider
Sure to ride today
Pale Horse, Pale Rider
has taken her away

original lyrics written by me


Long Gone

late last night, by candle light
I can tell, by them smiles in your eyes
that you get your thrills and I'm a get mine
but come morning before first light
your eyes ain't open but you know somethin ain't right
there's an empty space where your baby used to be
you got to find someone else because It can't be me
because I'm long gone
your baby's long gone
and I want to thank you for a real good time

my love a river flowing
to your garden tender sowing
I got the sweetest cream your desire
I'll get you warm by god then I'm a light your fire
and then I'm long gone
your baby's long gone
and I want to thank you for a real good time

Triptaka and Ahab

I play electric guitar and bass
original lyrics written by me
Triptaka and Ahab

tripitaka realizes, what he knows is nothing
Closer moves to god, what more can i say
reluctantly, he becomes king monkey's master
at first by force, then by the slaves compassion

ahab started as the master, then became the slave
he nailed a gold dubloon, putting price upon the whale
ishmael couldn't understand owning, what we do not know
my friend, ishmael asked "how is it that i could?"
i said now you are, and what else could you want
the whale took the slave away, to remind him who he is

buddha put monkey "or was it woman?", underneath a mountain
so ishmael climbed on top of monkey, to serve master ahab
if you could become the whale, would you be it's butcher
some days jesus shows, others tripitaka
more than monkeys, and wretched ahabs
who shamelessly bite the cord, to the higher order
cutting themselves completely off, from the my mother's milk
as they sail around in vulvas, to stab the back of greatness

just then god, went to a ship-building noah
the animals all are yours, just save them from my slaughter
it reminds me of his story, when the prince takes the daughter
personally my life is better, when i free myself from hell
i'm unafraid of fire
power
is dealing with the smell

if i top the totem, before my time, just my head arrives
i proudly say my title, that of greatest sage
before buddha, who says i'm just a stinking ape
he says yes, its true, you are old before your age
But to be like me, you need eternity
and you've only lived a day

I play acoustic 6 string, electric bass and the drum set.
Lyrics by John Denver.

Freight train, take my troubles away
Freight train, take my troubles away
I might be gone
Could be tommorow or today

Freight train, I'm at the station and I'm on time
Freight train, I'm at the station and I'm on time
When I'm on my way, you know I feel just fine

Warden, let me baby go
Warden, let me baby go
She ain't done nothing wrong, that sir you know
