Here is the Song written for this week! Let us know what you think. You can listen to the full Songwriter podcast here.
I realize the song may be a little offensive to some.. but it is a satirical look at the Pop industries obsession with youth and sex… and sometimes an explicit word is the only one that fits the purpose.
Desert Town
Desert Town Lyrics:
dripi’n down like honey
music on my mind and soul
life is lot like money
spend it all you want so more
God dint make no dummy
by i might be a n imbosol
it might be funny
oh but the joke is getting old
every thing i wanted
everything i wished for
why you gonna light me up a spark
to watch it drown
in shadows
all that i did ask for
why you gonna build me like an Ark
in desert town
take your tempture honey
you aink sick but you might be old
damn the big mans money
talk’n bout the bitch of soul
ching ching ching
that Big o’l ass
is solid gold
talk’n bout money saying
Big o’l ass
is solid gold
sing it like you got some soul

Wonderfully practical advice, as usual. Thanks for sharing. My prayers are with Nashville right now.
Thanks Gina… I’ve been waiting for the new CD to come out… can’t wait to get it. Good to find someone that shares my love for Cohen
