Miss Delicious

http://www.lulu.com/content/3084091


Hello Miss Delicious

You say you’re trying to be sugar free

Well, I don’t believe it for a second babe

‘Cuz you’re about as sweet as can be

Hello Miss Delicious

Won’t you share your candy with me

I’ve got one mighty big sweet tooth

And I’m jonesing for something sugary


Doo doo doo....


Hello Miss Delicious

You’ve got vanilla skin and chocolate colored eyes

Your teeth are candy coated popcorn

And your smile is the crackerjack prize

Hello Miss Delicious

Chew your mango and blackberry gum

When you spit it out the car door window

You know it just adds to your charm


Doo doo doo...


Hello Miss Delicious

I hear your candy cotton is sweet

Won’t you feed the circus in my heart

Until the day you set the elephants free

Hello Miss Delicious

Your candy hearts and caramel creams

Are sweeter than honey suckle nectar

I wanna share in your candy land dreams


Doo doo doo...



Storm Riding Woman http://www.lulu.com/content/3084009


Here I stand

Listenin’ to the wind

Your love flute ringin’

through the rain again

I know you love the moisture

I can see it in your eye

And now you wanna cure

The fever in the sky


Storm riding woman

You’re a child of the Cherokee sky

Grab your love flute

And share your medicine songs with mine


Here I stand

Listenin’ to the wind

Your love flute ringin’

Through the fields again

I know you love the earth

Well I can understand

Now you wanna cure

The fever in the land


Storm riding woman

You’re a child of the Cherokee sky

Grab your love flute

And share your medicine songs with mine


Here I stand

Listenin’ to the wind

Your love flute ringin’

Near the ocean waves again

I know you love to go

Skinny dipping at the beach

And now you wanna cure

All the fevers you can reach


Storm riding woman

You’re a child of the Cherokee sky

Grab your love flute

And share your medicine songs with mine

In the letters you mailed to me

You wrote me that your man lies to you

The both of you are living by the sea

And your shanty home is summer sky blue


Your heart’s on fire

You’re in love with a liar

Sadly, you’re madly neck deep in desire

You feel oh so tired

Of walking that wire

Sadly, you’re madly in love with the fire


You walk along the beach every day

Trying to find little heart shaped rocks

You keep them in a drawer hidden away

Buried underneath your folded socks


Your heart’s on fire

You’re in love with a liar

Sadly, you’re madly neck deep in desire

You feel oh so tired

Of walking that wire

Sadly, you’re madly in love with the fire


You wonder why I sold my blue guitar

The truth is that I barely knew how to play

Thinking back now about all our songs

It feels like we wrote them yesterday


Your heart’s on fire

You’re in love with a liar

Sadly, you’re madly neck deep in desire

You feel oh so tired

Of walking that wire

Sadly, you’re madly in love with the fire



K’s Song


http://www.lulu.com/content/3084077


Lemon Rings and children’s swings

French fries and butterflies

Black with cream & railroad steam

Tye-dyes & distant eyes

Timeless hands in ancient lands

Fireflies & jaded skies

Tired minds & thrift shop finds

Lion shares & grizzly bears


Hidden lies & baby cries

Chatter brains & window paynes

Kind words & talking birds

Itchy skin & forgotten kin

This and that with Jane & Jack

Mismatchen’ shoes & the Moody Blues

Ringing bells & wishing wells

We stand and see by the rolling sea

The day was almost done

School bells rang right on time

Teacher dismisses class

Sara’s lips crack a smile


Why do we always

Climb invisible walls

Is there even a reason


There always was a song

Singing loud was here style

Her friends all hummed along

Sara’s lips crack a smile


Why do we always

Climb invisible walls

Is there even a reason


Just look into her eyes

And brush against the radio dial

Blue birds rise in the sky

Sara’s lips crack a smile


Why do we always

Climb invisible walls

Is there even a reason



Sweet Louise http://www.lulu.com/content/5421700

Bang bang bang bang

At my window payne

Must be Louise

Or is it the rain

Bang bang bang bang

who could it be

I roll out of bed

And guess who I see


Like Gretal she was led

By her breadcrumbs to my door

I never knew her age

Sweet Louise


Bang bang bang bang

I open the door

Louise standing outside

Looking to score

Bang bang bang bang

She’s just ending her night

& her garlicky hair

is pulled back just right


Like Gretal she was led

By her breadcrumbs to my door

I never knew her age

Sweet Louise


Bang bang bang bang

Her black coat is wet

She’s probably starved

Yeah, that’s a safe bet

Bang bang bang bang

Her gift basket of bread

Has ten kinds of jam

I’m just dying to spread


Like Gretal she was led

By her breadcrumbs to my door

I never knew her age

Sweet Louise
