Story behind the song
I finally got around to recording this song. My musical friend DrC programmed the drums and played the organ. I played harmonica, guitars, bass and did all the vocals.
Lyrics
Seed Of A Tumbleweed V1 He was born in Fresno County In a little place called Huron His Dad drove a caterpillar His momma kept the soup on A few years in that dust bowl He grew up kind of fast With a tattoo on his shoulder Wailin' on a stratocast....er (Chorus) Raised beneath a rosebush thorn A seed of a tumbleweed Close to the oak, a fallen acorn The seed of a tumbleweed V2 He was headed in the wrong direction But luck had a hard wind blowin' north He blew into the valley Where he would stay the course His years of schoolin' where finished there That kept the demons at bay Now and then the wind blew south But he turned his head away (Chorus) (Solo) (Bridge) He always wanted to do his daddy proud But felt his momma's scorn Time has a way of marchin' on He made it through the storm (Chorus) Raised beneath a rosebush thorn A seed of a tumbleweed Close to the oak, a fallen acorn The seed of a tumbleweed Farrell Jackson © 3/31/14

I knew this was going to be good as soon as that harmonica kicked in right at the beginning ..... and I wasn't wrong. Great song and arrangement/production.
