about

I thought my guitar needed more work than it actually did so I wrote and recorded a new song with just the harmonica and the floor tom. It's called "Occasionally, I Stand a Little Different"

lyrics

Occasionally I’ll stand a little different
From everybody else
Occasionally you’ll stand a little different
We call it being ourselves

Come on over
I need you closer
Your Mama kicked me out
After your new friend told her
Of my latest post
Of our trip to the coast
Mostly spent getting high and talking bout life when we’re older, older, older,older

Something has come between us
There’s nothing about it I can trust
They take many faces
To get in our good graces
And create distance
Occasionally we stand a little different
Let’s not resist it

Occasionally you’ll stand a little different
From everybody else
Occasionally I’ll stand a little different
We call it being ourselves

Oh the radio
Was pumping stereo
And my new friend cut one side
As we were driving down the road
But then it sounded wrong
And I lost the song
left him alone at the panhandle then came home

Something has come between us
There’s nothing about it I can trust
They take many faces
To get in our good graces
And create distance
Occasionally we stand a little different
Let’s not resist it
