a banjo song I wrote (Sam Shin on cello)
acoustic florida lucinda williams southern storytelling honest homegrown open truthful vulnerable life experience revealing approachable
homegrown music...all natural, no fillers, no artificial colors.
....so nice of y'all to drop by! I'm a little southern lady who grew up during the glorious sunshiny 70's in a small beach town in N. Florida. An awesome time to begin to figure life out...catching the tail-end of the "age of aquarius" and gettin' to enjoy the freedoms that bunch won for us before the angst of the 80's and 90's set in. Try bein' a teenager today!!! Ha! I learned to play guitar by picking one up and flippin' open a CSN&Y songbook to "Helpless". Well, nobody told me I was playin' the thing up-side-down! I'm a lefty, ya know...held it like it felt right to me. Still play that way to this day. Took up the banjo and the ukulele and turned them up-side-down too. I wrote my first song at the age of 45 and now I've got a whole batch of 'em. I don't ever set out to write any particular song...just get a phrase that sticks and pretty soon the rest of it comes. Really, I don't write them at all...God just down-loads 'em into my brain and I jot them down and then sing and play them. To Him be the honor and the glory! So there you have it...or at least this part of it. I'd talk yer ears nearly clean offa yer hear if you'd indulge me. Thanks again for stoppin' by...next time I'll make a cake and brew some coffee. yerz, Ellen https://ellenmoseley.bandcamp.com

just something that came to mind...
Lyrics
Nowheresville I He wakes up like always, quarter hour past 2:00 tries his best to get back to sleep but all he sees is you he needs himself a remedy.....which poison will he choose to look for down in Nowheresville to ease his heart-sick blues CHORUS going down to Nowheresville.....just a point of view one man's heaven, one man's hell, depends on you it ain't always black or white.....sometimes it's just blue he went down to Nowheresville, hoping to find you II shaves his face and puts on a suit, ties his old brown shoes and takes the bus to Nowheresville, nothing left to lose sometimes a body needs to rest, sometimes it needs to move he took the bus to Nowheresville to catch a glimpse of you to catch a glimpse of you....to catch a glimpse.... CHORUS of you, down in Nowheresville.....just a point of view someone's heaven, someone's hell depends on you it ain't always black or white.....sometimes it's just blue he went down to Nowheresville hoping to find you he went down to Nowheresville hoping to find you..... August 2015
