Josie and I are pleased to share this new song with you. We are working on some new music and this is one of our latest folk-style tunes.
All music was produced with BIAB/RT's. The final mix was performed in GarageBand '11.
Thanks for listening!
Bob

"Under The Skies Of America"
The other day I was thinking about 1955
December in Montgomery and the passing of time
Black and white TV and Ike in the news
A dollar bought you lunch or paid your union dues
Chorus:
Hey, hey Rosa
Have we finally seen the light?
Freedom in the air flying high as a kite
Hey Rosa, I'm still dreaming under the skies of America tonight
The other day I was thinking about 1963
Vietnam a pillbox hat and John F. Kennedy
The times they we're a-changin' right before our eyes
But money, war and politics are not easily disguised
Chorus:
Hey, hey Jackie
Have we finally seen the light?
Revolution in the air flying high as a kite
Hey Jackie, I'm still dreaming under the skies of America tonight
Today I was thinking about this new century
Triumphs and troubles from sea to shinning sea
Are the days so much different are the voices getting bolder?
When Bob sings Maggie's Farm I can see we're getting older
Chorus:
Hey, hey Everybody
Have we finally seen the light?
Resurrection in the air flying high as a kite
Hey Everybody, we're still dreaming under the skies of America tonight
