about

Fender telecaster played through Vox amp & wah-wah; recorded through headphones into M-Audio field recorder. I'm an apartment dweller.

lyrics

BROKEN SOLDIER BLUES

I’m a Bluesman
Some say that’s too bad blue when I’m walking down the street
They don’t want to get too close to Too Blue
They don’t want to experience the world the way I do
and that’s too blue. I’m a broken soldier

People I’ve been walking this earth for over 50 years now
walking, stumbling, scratching at the surface
I reckon I’ll keep on walking until I can’t walk no more
then I’m gonna lay my ass down and that will be too bad blue.
I’m a Broken soldier.
