Hi all, another countryfied piece using the new mandoline.  Hope you enjoy.    Willie


Laying in the gutter and I'm just holding on
Looking for the bottle but the bottle has gone
Crawling to the corner where they got another bar
Leaning on the counter just trying to get a jar

Barman says man you aint looking good
You want another whisky and I don't think you should
What you needs a coffee as black as Satans soul
I'll call you a taxi and straight off home you go

If I had a home
Well that sounds alright
If I had a home
I'd be there tonight

So I stood right up and staggered to the street
Feeling kinda weird from my head down to my feet
Laying on the sidewalk just looking at the sky
Looking for the answers but all I got was why.

Inst, chorus, verse 3, outro

Super track Willie, actually quite Willie Nelson'ish I think. The hand clap thang going on really adds something. Great stuff. Keep 'em coming.

The mando sounds fab. Actually, it all sounds fab. A stylish country feel - reminds me a bit of the great Harry Chapin on the vocal.

Fine work!
