Wow. An amazing production, arrangement and mix. They lyrics are excellent and I love what you've done with the guitars. I just noticed other comments and that you increased the gain on the vocals. Perfect balance.
Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#58: Bring consciousness to it.
#63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

Interesting prosody to this, it keeps you listening, wondering where you're going next with the melody. Liked the nickels and dimes conceit. Your unique voice carries the story well. Good work as usual.

Thanks, TuneMonger.
Prosody can make a song more interesting I think.

I had to listen with a title like that. Reminiscent of the old Waylon Jennings sound.
Interesting song. Good job on it.

That is some kicka$$ insturmentation ---such a cool, driving sound. Another good Johnny Cash type song.
I love these lines: "But I got married back this spring/Seemed like a good plan at the time."

Hi Scott.
That was one of those lines that just come into your head without much thought.
I wish it would happen more often.
Thank you for pitching in.

Great song. Grumpy outlaw vibe  - and, on hearing the last verses, who could blame him? Voice: top-notch. Writing: excellent. Lyrics: super. Oh, and more than a dollop of humour Loved it ... nice low note, at the end, too Well done!

Nicely rolling country song. "Buzzards" caught my attention, always nice to read a story where nature plays an important role. Many nice lines including "Blew my last nickels on the ring/Then she ran off with my last dime." followed then by the encouraging chorus.
The tempo is right for running away from those bird(ie)s. Great selection of rocking guitars. Good vocals, enjoyed especially the chorus where melody and words work well together.

Thank you Janne for those encouraging words.
I don't know if you were aware that "buzzards" is a replacement for a more insulting word.
