Great vox that fit the lyrical story! Love the use of the sax too.

Keep on writing!

Thanks, Dewey. I'm not even sure what genre it is --was never good at that. I will, Dewey.

Yeah, that's what the song is about, regardless of the lyrics.
No idea why there's a sax, though.

Thanks, Brain. Good story. You should write a sequel. The sax-shooter could be shot down in a duel with the honky tonk piano player, or a traveling trumpet player.

Works a treat and this one is smooth n slinks under the door.
Ace.
Thanks, Ray. You have a great way with words, my friend.

Thanks for the advice, Chay. I wouldn't be able to sing that fast. Still, you have the talent to draw out that potential.


Enjoy whatever happens!
