soldier on by honker

[Oldrottenhead]

ken recorded this a while back but sent it to me  a few days ago. i added some juno and words. it's about friendship.

for all my friends here.


You can call my number
Day or night
No need to worry
We can make things right

Together we can bolster
The weight that's on our shoulders
Together we can soldier
On..............

A problem shared
Is a problem halved
So they say
You can stick your head in the sand
But it won't
Go away
I might have the answers
Or I might not
But least we can try
And give it a shot

Together we can bolster
The weight that's on our shoulders
Together we can soldier
On..............

Together we can bolster
The weight that's on our shoulders
Together we can soldier
On..............

Maybe in the morning
In the cold light of day
It won't seem as harsh
As it does today

Together we can bolster
The weight that's on our shoulders
Together we can soldier
On..............
Together we can soldier
On..............

Great sentiment and a great song! The juno adds a lovely warmth to the jangle of the acoustic guitar. And is that a juno solo I hear?! It's superb! Ken's guitar layering is really, really nicely done. Another finely written and expertly performed song. Sheer class.

And is that a juno solo I hear?

afraid so, it really needs a nice guitar solo there instead.

I wouldn't say that. It really worked! I'll have to leave some spaces in the JK songs from now on... !

I love this!! Great songwriting, Ken! Stunning keys and vox, Jim. Production; 10 points! The sound of acoustic gtr is out of this world!! My new fav of honker!

This really sounds great to me Jim!
I sure wish I could play the keyboards as well as you do.
Love the lyrics and the tranquil feeling this imparts....
