Capo 3
A string play D
Add pinky high A

Spewing goo
Hatred anew
Is that what I want to do?

Don’t become that
Which I despise
Less sober
More Wise
Don’t become that
Which I despise

I try to realize
When it’s all over
… rather remain
Love and the same

Outside the Cage of the Nasty Old Man
aka Cigar Butt

Capo 2
F#
Hold low E string with ringfinger… move index finger over B, G and D strings.

Nasty old man
Smoking on his butt
Hard to tell
If he’s straight from hell
Well,
Not that harde
No, not that hard at all
No knows
Cugino’s
Butts from around the world

“Get on out, Boy!
Fuck your cigar.
Get on out, Boy!
Fuck your guitar”

Nasty old man
Picking his nose
While he knows
Nothing of heart
A nasty old man
No one can stand
Just lives to hurt

Turn to ashes
Turn to dirt

These songs are about 2 girls I met on the streets of West Chester. They like to tell incredible tales and gather a crowd of interesting characters. Season told me she is a gypsy because she has yellow in her eye.

Music written in West Chester and Philadelphia.
Lyrics written at 2nd and Chestnut Streets, Old City, Philadelphia while I sat against the “Corn Exchange Bank”. The chorus came about when a man that appeared to be homeless approached me… and gave me a dollar.

Let your goodness

Em

You’re way to wacky
Not to survive
You’re the one always trying…
You always strive to survive
Stay alive
Way outside the norm
You’ll weather their storm

Let them say what they want to say about you
You’re the one whose heart is true
You have equal rights
Not to be equal
Equality doesn’t mean neutral

This song is based on Hurricane Irene. I was suppose to play a Bob Marley festival… but, it was canceled due to Atlantic City being under a mandatory evacuation. When I explained my situation to a fan, he said, “Irene’s a bitch.”

Capo 4
F#

Ole Lady leery
Left her lantern in the shed
When the how kicked it over
She winked her I and said,
“If ya know what i mean
My names Irene
Gonna be gnarly
Sorry, no Marely.”

So, we played all night
Into the day
Play, play, play
We played into the rain
The spirit will remain

A tidal surge
Irie sea
Love splurge
See irie
Rainbow
Know

Capo 7
B variations

What is it you seek?
Light and heat?
The comfort of warmth
Without the constraints of….

If you can’t see the desert
Through the forest
The quicksand of justice
Is just the tip of the ice
Burg, Borough or Bust
What is must, must
Right = Right
I write….
