Here is a song I wrote with Jan Hauenstein. I wrote the lyrics, Jan the music. This is from my new album, released today, Drive Lonesome.

Cadillac TIme

Cadillac Time

Broke the bank
Made quite a haul
Didn’t do much
Just answered the call
Legitimately rich
A peacock on display
Thought the break would come tomorrow
It happened yesterday
Got a knack for knowing
Don’t fight the river’s flow
There are miles and miles before me
I know where I must go

When you got enough money
The worst thing’s not a crime
When you got enough money
You live on Cadillac Time

Got a list of angels
At my beck and call
I never call them
They have to beg and crawl
A lone wolf marauder
I tore up my life and times
When the final book is written
You’ll be searching for the signs
Knowing what I know now
No victory or defeat
I can fly across the universe
In reinforced concrete
Chorus

Judgment day keeps coming
It’s never out of reach
The righteous ones affirm it
Agnostics wink free speech
The blues are all around us
Waiting patiently
The worst thing you can think of
Is believing you are free
So where do I go from here
Options so galore
What most think is the ceiling
For me it’s just the floor
Chorus
