Feb 2022 boy_with_guitar mandolin
An uplifting reminder of what I do around this time of year.
Acoustic guitar and mandolin
It's gonna be a red socks
And grey underpants kind of day
Worn out jeans and favorite
Black t-shirt and all's okay
Can't do no wrong
Never weak always strong
When you're this feelin' fine
It shows in your song
Shaved in the shower
Washed all my crucial parts
What's left of my hair handled
That's how a good day starts
One more look in the mirror
Doesn't make anything clearer
But that's okay, Man
I still win minds and hearts
No mater if I got an empty head
I'm gonna write about what's never been said
Never been said
What's the order of business
Perhaps I'll write that song
The one that's been dogging me
And always comes out wrong
But today might be the day
I'll grab my axe and play
The Great American
Songwriter song

Love this song! This has a real authentic songwriting quality to it. A solid song, I think this is my favorite of yours so far, Phil!

That mandolin it's cool. I like the texture it adds, as well as the backing vocals. Super lyrics. I love a good songwriter song. We don't write ourselves enough songs.

KILLER opening line haha! And I think we all can relate to the subject matter. LOVING the mando. Great work!

Aren't we all chasing the Great American Songwriter Song. Even me and I'm Canadian. The guitar and mando duo works really well. I may try it out myself.
