lyrics

Cope

One man spins the reel,
Another tips the bottle,
Each fight back the tide,
To drift on into tomorrow.
One man fights with silver,
Another crawls along the vine,

Each one of them the same,
Just biding away their separate time.

When I reached out and lent my hand,
They looked so damned confused,
Took pity on the wounded ones,
Had to see if they could choose.
So short lived was my regard,
It hadn’t life to breathe,
Both reply in inner eye,
Why the hell don’t you just leave.

This man burns the root,
That man douses out the flame,
Those men know in their own minds,
Their own minds are far from sane.
This one feels the need,
That one needs the feel,
That one’s got his bottle,
This one’s got his reel.

And I wonder sometimes,
If it ever just might come to that,
And I worry sometimes, If one day that’s just where it’s at.

If the mirror, one day might crack,

Reality might just bite back,
Reality might just bite back,

Reality might just bite back, baby.

about

Rich Junco

Willie Dixon said it best:
~ The Blues is the Roots, the Rest is the Fruits. ~

Everything I do has its Roots in the Blues. Willie taught me that.

Louis Armstrong had his own perspective:
~ All Music is Folk Music. I ain't never heard a horse sing a song. ~

So, I make Folk Music. Louis taught me that.

At the end of the day, it's Music!

It's in the air.

I just try to pull it out.
