Artist picture
Retired military solo artist; Tex/Americana/Folk singer/songwriter. 'Scratch' is my military handle and TexScratch a stage name just for the purpose of having a stage name, I suppose... Let's Talk Guild (LTG) guitar forum friends inspired many tunes and the inclination to purchase far too many Guild Guitars over the years...

Lyrics
Texas Hiway Blues© Ken Smith (8/27/2011 & 8/22/12) Picking up the pieces scattered 'cross the floor; I'm no good at holding on; they've been dropped before The one I keep looking for resembles you; but these picture puzzle pieces don't provide a clue I don't think I'm crazy; maybe just a fool They tell me you're not here; maybe Austin town So I'm heading up the hiway to the Heartbreak Lost and Found Engine overheated Travis County line; Once again mistreated; it's third and long this time I don't think I'm crazy; But I'm acting like a fool We've been through this fixing pieces that I tore; 2 times once too often; a 3rd time charm once more How many times have I heard the slamming of your door? One; Two; Three; Four Next stop maybe Dallas if I treat this truck with care That country place in Fort Worth; I know you like it there The miles behind remind me life is lonely without you I'd turn around and head back home, but what then would I do? Our friends don't think I'm crazy; they know me; I'm just a fool ADDED 8/22/12: I've picked up all the pieces; scattered 'cross our floor I'm no good at holding on; you told me that before The only piece I'm missing; the one that I can't find Leaves my heart a wishing you'd return this one last time It may be I'm just crazy; without you I'm a fool...
