With some time off for the holidays I can do more listening and maybe even get something new going in the studio. For now, though, here's something from some years ago that I dug up from my back pages.
Chuckling after writing out the lyrics....an awful lot of words for a mere 2:47.
Loose Changehttps://www.soundclick.com/music/songInfo.cfm?songID=11362553I'm stranded on this rock
With nothin' up my sleeve
I hear all the talk
But I just don't know what to believe
'Cause these times are so strange
I got my hands in my pockets
And there's nothin' else there but loose change
We're stuck here on this rock
Stuck here in this town
Stuck here waiting
For the good times to come back around
And I can feel your pain
I'd really like to help you
But all I got here
Is loose change
INSTRUMENTAL
And while the days go slow
Time flies like a rocket
Guess I won't change much
With my hands in my pockets
Here's a little secret
It's just a little seed
If I dig a little deeper
I'll find just what we need
It might make a difference
It might ease a little pain
Things may seem a little loose
But they're still bound to change
I see you standing in the doorways
And standing in lines
And while I can't stand giving up
The things I hold as mine
If I had a little more
I'd think of giving some to you
But when I stop and think it over
I know just what to do
I'll dig down deep
And see if I can find
Loose change
It isn't really mine
So I'll drop some in your bucket
Buddy I can spare you a dime
'Cause with times the way they are
We could all use a little change
