MEANINGFUL CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN, GOSPEL AND FOLK
I am a "one man band" with a Yammaha key board and an electric guitar. I program the keyboard and play along with my other instruments. I have been composing songs for 30 years. that's right I am 56 years old but Jesus has given me the ability to hold my own. I am not a learned musician, I have taught myself and I basically play by ear.

Lyrics
I AM TRAVLIN DOWN A LONG WESTERN ROAD, THINKING DEEPLY OF A FRIEND I HAVE BACK HOME, I DON'T KNOW WHERE I'M GOIN ALL I KNOW IS I'M GONE, DOWN THAT WESTERN BOUND HAIGWAY WHERE I'M DESTINED TO ROAM ALL MY FRIENDS SAID THAT I'M CRAZY FOR GOIN SO FAR, WITHOUT A DIME TO MY NAME AND A RUNDOWN BEAT UP CAR, I DON'T KNOW I'M GOIN ALL I KNOW IS I'M GONE, DOWN THAT WESTERN BOUND HIGHWAY WHERE I'M DESTINED TO ROAM I MET A LADY HERE, SHE'S IS FINE AS SHE CAN BE, AND NOW THAT LADY'S MY WIFE AND WE'RE BOTH LIVING HAPPILY, I'M GLAD I GOT ON THAT HIGHWAY THAT NOW TAKES ME HOME, DOWN THAT WESTERN BOUND HIGHWAY WHERE I'M DESTINED TO ROAM WESTERN BOUND HIGHWAY OHHHH OHH I'VE TRAVELED LONG I DON'T FEEL VERY STRONG, I FINALLY MADE IT TO THESE HILLS, AS I WAKE UP AMAZEMENT FILLS MY EYES, I FEEL THE CHILL OF THESE GREAT NORTHERN SKIES. WOKE UP THIS MORNIN, ON A MOUNTAIN, RIGHT BESIDE , A CRYSTAL CLEAR FOUNTAIN
